The HW requires a full MAC reset when changing the speed.
Additionally the Aspeed documentation spells out that the
MAC needs to be reset twice with a 10us interval.
We thus move the speed setting and top level reset code
into a new ftgmac100_reset_and_config_mac() function which
handles both. Move the ring pointers initialization there
too in order to reflect the HW change.
Also reduce the timeout for the MAC reset as it shouldn't
take more than 300 clock cycles according to the doc.

Link speed changes require a full HW reset. This isn't done
properly at the moment. It will involve delays and thus isn't
suitable to do from the link poll callback.
So let's create a reset_task that we can queue up when the
link changes. It will be useful for various cases of error
handling as well.

Detection of watchdog timeout of Octeon cores is flawed and susceptible to
false alarms. Refactor by removing the detection code, and in its place,
leverage existing code that monitors for an indication from the NIC
firmware that an Octeon core crashed; expand the meaning of the indication
to "an Octeon core crashed or its watchdog timer expired". Detection of
watchdog timeout is now delegated to an exception handler in the NIC
firmware; this is free of false alarms.
Also if there's an Octeon core crash or watchdog timeout:
(1) Disable VF Ethernet links.
(2) Decrement the module refcount by an amount equal to the number of
active VFs of the NIC whose Octeon core crashed or had a watchdog
timeout. The refcount will continue to reflect the active VFs of
other liquidio NIC(s) (if present) whose Octeon cores are faultless.
Item (2) is needed to avoid the case of not being able to unload the driver
because the module refcount is stuck at some non-zero number. There is
code that, in normal cases, decrements the refcount upon receiving a
message from the firmware that a VF driver was unloaded. But in
exceptional cases like an Octeon core crash or watchdog timeout, arrival of
that particular message from the firmware might be unreliable. That normal
case code is changed to not touch the refcount in the exceptional case to
avoid contention (over the refcount) with the liquidio_watchdog kernel
thread who will carry out item (2).

People are using bonding over Infiniband IPoIB connections, and who knows
what else. Infiniband has a hardware address length of 20 octets
(INFINIBAND_ALEN), and the network core defines a MAX_ADDR_LEN of 32.
Various places in the bonding code are currently hard-wired to 6 octets
(ETH_ALEN), such as the 3ad code, which I've left untouched here. Besides,
only alb is currently possible on Infiniband links right now anyway, due
to commit 1533e77315, so the alb code is where most of the changes are.
One major component of this change is the addition of a bond_hw_addr_copy
function that takes a length argument, instead of using ether_addr_copy
everywhere that hardware addresses need to be copied about. The other
major component of this change is converting the bonding code from using
struct sockaddr for address storage to struct sockaddr_storage, as the
former has an address storage space of only 14, while the latter is 128
minus a few, which is necessary to support bonding over device with up to
MAX_ADDR_LEN octet hardware addresses. Additionally, this probably fixes
up some memory corruption issues with the current code, where it's
possible to write an infiniband hardware address into a sockaddr declared
on the stack.
Lightly tested on a dual mlx4 IPoIB setup, which properly shows a 20-octet
hardware address now:

Currently the reordering SNMP counters only increase if a connection
sees a higher degree then it has previously seen. It ignores if the
reordering degree is not greater than the default system threshold.
This significantly under-counts the number of reordering events
and falsely convey that reordering is rare on the network.
This patch properly and faithfully records the number of reordering
events detected by the TCP stack, just like the comment says "this
exciting event is worth to be remembered". Note that even so TCP
still under-estimate the actual reordering events because TCP
requires TS options or certain packet sequences to detect reordering
(i.e. ACKing never-retransmitted sequence in recovery or disordered
state).

If the mc_list is longer than 256 addresses, we enter mc_promisc mode.
If we're in mc_promisc mode and the firmware doesn't support cascaded
multicast, normally we also insert our mc_list, to prevent stealing by
another VI. However, if the mc_list was too long, this isn't really
helpful - the MC groups that didn't fit in the list can still get
stolen, and having only some of them stealable will probably cause
more confusing behaviour than having them all stealable. Since
inserting 256 multicast filters takes a long time and can lead to MCDI
state machine timeouts, just skip the mc_list insert in this overflow

nfp: ethtool link settings
This series adds support for getting and setting link settings
via the (moderately) new ethtool ksettings ops.
First patch introduces minimal speed and duplex reporting using
the information directly provided in PCI BAR0 memory.
Next few changes deal with the need to refresh port state read
from the service process and patch 6 finally uses that information
to provide link speed and duplex. Patches 7 and 8 add auto
negotiation and port type reporting.
Remaining changes provide the set support for speed and auto
negotiation. An upcoming series will also add port splitting
support via devlink.
Quite a bit of churn in this series is caused by the fact that
currently port speed and split changes will usually require a
reboot to take effect. Current service process code is not capable
of performing MAC reinitialization after chip has been passing
traffic. To make sure user is aware of this limitation we refuse
the configuration unless netdev is down, print warning to the logs
and if configuration was performed but did take effect we unregister
the netdev. Service process has a "reboot needed" sticky bit, so
reloading the driver will not bring the netdev back.
Note that there is a helper in patch 13 which is marked as
__always_inline, because the FIELD_* macros require the parameters
to be known at compilation time. I hope that is OK.

When netdev events happen, a rtnetlink_event() handler will send
messages for every event in it's white list. These messages contain
current information about a particular device, but they do not include
the iformation about which event just happened. The consumer of
the message has to try to infer this information. In some cases
(ex: NETDEV_NOTIFY_PEERS), that is not possible.
This patch adds a new extension to RTM_NEWLINK message called IFLA_EVENT
that would have an encoding of the which event triggered this
message. This would allow the the message consumer to easily determine
if it is interested in a particular event or not.

The rtnetlink_event currently functions as a blacklist where

As a result, events have been added to the system that userspace
probably doesn't care about.
This patch converts the implementation to the white list so that
newly events would have to be specifically added to the list to
be sent to userspace. This would force new event implementers to
consider whether a given event is usefull to user space or if it's
just a kernel event.

Define one new macro TCP_MAX_WSCALE instead of literal number '14',
and use U16_MAX instead of 65535 as the max value of TCP window.
There is another minor change, use rounddown(space, mss) instead of
(space / mss) * mss;

Since commit d6580a9f15 ("kexec: sysrq: simplify sysrq-c handler"),
the sysrq handler for the 'c' key has been sysrq_crash_op. Debugging
code in the ibm_emac driver also tries to register a handler for the 'c'
key, but this has no effect because register_sysrq_key() doesn't replace
existing handlers. Since evidently no one has cared enough to fix this
in the last 8 years, and it's very rare for drivers to register sysrq
handlers (for good reason), just remove the dead code.

This patch is almost to revert commit 02f3d4ce9e ("sctp: Adjust PMTU
updates to accomodate route invalidation."). As t->asoc can't be NULL
in sctp_transport_update_pmtu, it could get sk from asoc, and no need
to pass sk into that function.
It is also to remove some duplicated codes from that function.

Earlier patch c4adfc822b ("bonding: make speed, duplex setting
consistent with link state") made an attempt to keep slave state
consistent with speed and duplex settings. Unfortunately link-state
transition is used to change the active link especially when used
in conjunction with mii-mon. The above mentioned patch broke that
logic. Also when speed and duplex settings for a link are updated
during a link-event, the link-status should not be changed to
invoke correct transition logic.
This patch fixes this issue by moving the link-state update outside
of the bond_update_speed_duplex() fn and to the places where this fn
is called and update link-state selectively.

cb_running is reported in /proc/self/net/netlink and it is reported by
the ss tool, when it gets information from the proc files.
sock_diag is a new interface which is used instead of proc files, so it
looks reasonable that this interface has to report no less information
about sockets than proc files.
We use these flags to dump and restore netlink sockets.
