Pull networking fixes from David Miller:
"This set fixes a bunch of fallout from the changes that went in during
this merge window, particularly:
- Fix fsl_pq_mdio (Claudiu Manoil) and fm10k (Pranith Kumar) build
failures.
- Several networking drivers do atomic_set() on page counts where
that's not exactly legal. From Eric Dumazet.
- Make __skb_flow_get_ports() work cleanly with unaligned data, from
Alexander Duyck.
- Fix some kernel-doc buglets in rfkill and netlabel, from Fabian
Frederick.
- Unbalanced enable_irq_wake usage in bcmgenet and systemport
drivers, from Florian Fainelli.
- pxa168_eth needs to depend on HAS_DMA, from Geert Uytterhoeven.
- Multi-dequeue in the qdisc layer severely bypasses the fairness
limits the previous code used to enforce, reintroduce in a way that
at the same time doesn't compromise bulk dequeue opportunities.
From Jesper Dangaard Brouer.
- macvlan receive path unnecessarily hops through a softirq by using
netif_rx() instead of netif_receive_skb(). From Jason Baron"

Multiple enable_irq_wake() calls will keep increasing the IRQ
wake_depth, which ultimately leads to the following types of
situation:
1) enable Wake-on-LAN interrupt w/o password
2) enable Wake-on-LAN interrupt w/ password
3) enable Wake-on-LAN interrupt w/o password
4) disable Wake-on-LAN interrupt
After step 4), SYSTEMPORT would always wake-up the system no matter what
wake-up device we use, which is not what we want. Fix this by making
sure there are no unbalanced enable_irq_wake() calls.

Commit b629be5c8399d7c423b92135eb43a86c924d1cbc ("net: bcmgenet: check
harder for out of memory conditions") moved the increment of the local
read pointer *before* reading from the hardware descriptor using
dmadesc_get_length_status(), which creates an off-by-one situation.
Fix this by moving again the read_ptr increment after we have read the
hardware descriptor to get both the control block and the read pointer
back in sync.

Pull networking updates from David Miller:
"Most notable changes in here:
1) By far the biggest accomplishment, thanks to a large range of
contributors, is the addition of multi-send for transmit. This is
the result of discussions back in Chicago, and the hard work of
several individuals.
Now, when the ->ndo_start_xmit() method of a driver sees
skb->xmit_more as true, it can choose to defer the doorbell
telling the driver to start processing the new TX queue entires.
skb->xmit_more means that the generic networking is guaranteed to
call the driver immediately with another SKB to send.
There is logic added to the qdisc layer to dequeue multiple
packets at a time, and the handling mis-predicted offloads in
software is now done with no locks held.
Finally, pktgen is extended to have a "burst" parameter that can
be used to test a multi-send implementation.
Several drivers have xmit_more support: i40e, igb, ixgbe, mlx4,
virtio_net
Adding support is almost trivial, so export more drivers to
support this optimization soon.
I want to thank, in no particular or implied order, Jesper
Dangaard Brouer, Eric Dumazet, Alexander Duyck, Tom Herbert, Jamal
Hadi Salim, John Fastabend, Florian Westphal, Daniel Borkmann,
David Tat, Hannes Frederic Sowa, and Rusty Russell.
2) PTP and timestamping support in bnx2x, from Michal Kalderon.
3) Allow adjusting the rx_copybreak threshold for a driver via
ethtool, and add rx_copybreak support to enic driver. From
Govindarajulu Varadarajan.
4) Significant enhancements to the generic PHY layer and the bcm7xxx
driver in particular (EEE support, auto power down, etc.) from
Florian Fainelli.
5) Allow raw buffers to be used for flow dissection, allowing drivers
to determine the optimal "linear pull" size for devices that DMA
into pools of pages. The objective is to get exactly the
necessary amount of headers into the linear SKB area pre-pulled,
but no more. The new interface drivers use is eth_get_headlen().
From WANG Cong, with driver conversions (several had their own
by-hand duplicated implementations) by Alexander Duyck and Eric
Dumazet.
6) Support checksumming more smoothly and efficiently for
encapsulations, and add "foo over UDP" facility. From Tom
Herbert.
7) Add Broadcom SF2 switch driver to DSA layer, from Florian
Fainelli.
8) eBPF now can load programs via a system call and has an extensive
testsuite. Alexei Starovoitov and Daniel Borkmann.
9) Major overhaul of the packet scheduler to use RCU in several major
areas such as the classifiers and rate estimators. From John
Fastabend.
10) Add driver for Intel FM10000 Ethernet Switch, from Alexander
Duyck.
11) Rearrange TCP_SKB_CB() to reduce cache line misses, from Eric
Dumazet.
12) Add Datacenter TCP congestion control algorithm support, From
Florian Westphal.
13) Reorganize sk_buff so that __copy_skb_header() is significantly
faster. From Eric Dumazet"

The tx_desc struct holds 8 __be64 values. The original code in
ring_tx_db() took a tx_desc pointer then casted it to an int pointer and
then casted it to a u64 pointer. It was confusing and triggered some
static checker warnings.
I have changed the cxgb_pio_copy() function to only take tx_desc
pointers. This isn't really a loss of flexibility because anything else
was buggy to begin with.
I also removed the casting on the destination pointer since that was
unnecessary and a bit messy.

When using a MPC8xx as a router, 'perf' shows a significant time spent in
fs_enet_interrupt() and fs_enet_start_xmit().
'perf annotate' shows that the time spent in fs_enet_start_xmit is indeed spent
between spin_unlock_irqrestore() and the following instruction, hence in
interrupt handling. This is due to the TX complete interrupt that fires after
each transmitted packet.
This patch modifies the handling of TX complete to use NAPI.
With this patch, my NAT router offers a throughput improved by 21%

RTL8168EP is Realtek PCIe Gigabit Ethernet controller with DASH support.
It is a successor chip of RTL8168DP.
For RTL8168EP, the read/write ocp register is via eri channel type 2, so I
move ocp_xxx() related functions under rtl_eri_xxx. And use r8168dp_ocp_xxx()
for RTL8168DP ocp read/write, r8168ep_ocp_xxx() for RTL8168EP ocp read/write.
The way of checking dash enable is different with RTL8168DP. I use
r8168dp_check_dash()for RTL8168DP and r8168ep_check_dash() for RTL8168EP,
to check if dash is enabled.
The driver_start() and driver_stop() of RTL8168EP is also different with
RTL8168DP. I use rtl8168dp_driver_xxx() for RTL8168DP and
rtl8168ep_driver_xxx for RTL8168EP.
Right now, RTL8168EP phy mcu did not need firmware code patch, so I did not
add firmware code for it.

Drivers should avoid NETDEV_TX_BUSY as much as possible.
They should stop the tx queue before qdisc even tries to push another
packet, to avoid requeues.
For a driver supporting skb->xmit_more, this is likely to be a prereq
anyway, otherwise we could have a tx deadlock : We need to force a
doorbell if TX ring is full.

the intent is to split out the mapping from the byte-swapping in order to
insert a dma_mapping_error() check.
Kinda this semantic patch:
// See http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/
//
// Beware, grouik-and-dirty!

- cpu_to_le32(pci_map_single(DEV, X, Y, Z))
+ dma_addr_t addr = pci_map_single(DEV, X, Y, Z);
+ if (dma_mapping_error(&DEV->dev, addr))
+ /* snip */;
+ cpu_to_le32(addr)
However, the #else part (of the #if DO_ZEROCOPY test) is changed this way:
- cpu_to_le32(pci_map_single(DEV, X, Y, Z))
+ dma_addr_t addr = cpu_to_le32(pci_map_single(DEV, X, Y, Z));
// ^^^^^^^^^^^
// That mismatches the 3 other changes!
+ if (dma_mapping_error(&DEV->dev, addr))
+ /* snip */;
+ cpu_to_le32(addr)
Let's remove the leftover cpu_to_le32() for coherency.
v2: Better changelog.

GENET MAC has three Tx ring priority registers:
- GENET_x_TDMA_PRIORITY0 for queues 0-5
- GENET_x_TDMA_PRIORITY1 for queues 6-11
- GENET_x_TDMA_PRIORITY2 for queues 12-16
Fix bcmgenet_init_multiq() to program them correctly.

When Tx VLAN offloading is disabled frames with size ~ MTU are not
transmitted as the driver does not account 4 bytes of VLAN header added
by stack. It should use VLAN_ETH_HLEN instead of ETH_HLEN.
The second problem is with newer BNA chips (BNA 1860). These chips filter
out any VLAN tagged frames in Tx path. This is a problem when Tx VLAN
offloading is disabled and frames are tagged by stack. Older chips like
1010/1020 are not affected as they probably don't do such filtering.

Instead of setting inline threshold using module parameter only on
driver load, use set_tunable() to set it dynamically.
No need to store the threshold per ring, using instead the netdev global
priv->prof->inline_thold
Initial value still is set using the module parameter, therefore
backward compatability is kept.

Acces skb_shinfo(skb) once in tx flow.
Also, rename @i variable to @i_frag to avoid confusion, as the "goto
tx_drop_unmap;" relied on this @i variable.

Add frag0_dma/frag0_byte_count into mlx4_en_tx_info to avoid a cache
line miss in TX completion for frames having one dma element. (We avoid
reading back the tx descriptor)
Note this could be extended to 2/3 dma elements later, as we have free
room in mlx4_en_tx_info
Also, mlx4_en_free_tx_desc() no longer accesses skb_shinfo(). We use a
new nr_maps fields in mlx4_en_tx_info to avoid 2 or 3 cache misses.
