A recent version of cppcheck falsely reports-
Variable ip.hdr is assigned a value that is never used.
ip is a union so the pointer ip.hdr is actually used when referenced as
ip.v4 and ip.v6. Silence these false reports when using cppcheck with the
--inline-suppr command-line option.

Every time we want to re-enable interrupts and/or write to a register
that requires an interrupt vector's hardware index we do the following:
vsi->hw_base_vector + q_vector->v_idx
This is a wasteful operation, especially in the hot path. Fix this by
adding a u16 reg_idx member to the ice_q_vector structure and make the
necessary changes to make this work.

Currently when calculating how much to increment ITR by inside of
ice_update_itr() we do some estimations and intermediate
calculations. Instead of doing estimations, just do the
calculation directly. This allows for a more accurate value and it
makes it easier for the next person to understand and update.
Also, remove the dividing the ITR value by 2 when latency
driven because the ITR values are already so low for 100Gbps
speed. This should help get to the desired ITR value faster.

mmiowb() is now implied by spin_unlock() on architectures that require
it, so there is no reason to call it from driver code. This patch was
generated using coccinelle:
@mmiowb@
@@
- mmiowb();
and invoked as:
$ for d in drivers include/linux/qed sound; do \
spatch --include-headers --sp-file mmiowb.cocci --dir $d --in-place; done
NOTE: mmiowb() has only ever guaranteed ordering in conjunction with
spin_unlock(). However, pairing each mmiowb() removal in this patch with
the corresponding call to spin_unlock() is not at all trivial, so there
is a small chance that this change may regress any drivers incorrectly
relying on mmiowb() to order MMIO writes between CPUs using lock-free
synchronisation. If you've ended up bisecting to this commit, you can
reintroduce the mmiowb() calls using wmb() instead, which should restore
the old behaviour on all architectures other than some esoteric ia64
systems.

There are two reasons for this.
First, the xmit_more flag conceptually doesn't fit into the skb, as
xmit_more is not a property related to the skb.
Its only a hint to the driver that the stack is about to transmit another
packet immediately.
Second, it was only done this way to not have to pass another argument
to ndo_start_xmit().
We can place xmit_more in the softnet data, next to the device recursion.
The recursion counter is already written to on each transmit. The "more"
indicator is placed right next to it.
Drivers can use the netdev_xmit_more() helper instead of skb->xmit_more
to check the "more packets coming" hint.
skb->xmit_more is retained (but always 0) to not cause build breakage.
This change takes care of the simple s/skb->xmit_more/netdev_xmit_more()/
conversions. Remaining drivers are converted in the next patches.

Currently the ice_q_vector structure and ice_ring_container structure
are taking up more space than necessary due to cache alignment holes
and unnecessary variables respectively. This is not helping the
driver's performance. The following fixes were done to improve cache
alignment, reduce wasted space, and increase performance.
1. Remove the ice_latency_range enum as it is unused.
2. Remove the latency_range variable in the ice_ring_container structure.
3. Change the size of the itr_idx in the ice_ring_container structure
from an int to an u16. This reduced the size of ice_ring_container
structure to 32 Bytes so it has no holes or padding.
4. Re-arrange the ice_q_vector structure using pahole to align
members as best as possible in regards to 64 Byte cache line size.

Provide DMA_ATTR_WEAK_ORDERING and DMA_ATTR_SKIP_CPU_SYNC attributes to
the DMA API during the mapping operations on Rx side. With this change
the non-x86 platforms will be able to sync only with what is being used
(2k buffer) instead of entire page. This should yield a slight
performance improvement.
Furthermore, DMA unmap may destroy the changes that were made to the
buffer by CPU when platform is not a x86 one. DMA_ATTR_SKIP_CPU_SYNC
attribute usage fixes this issue.
Also add a sync_single_for_device call during the Rx buffer assignment,
to make sure that the cache lines are cleared before device attempting
to write to the buffer.

Refactor ice_fetch_rx_buf and ice_add_rx_frag in a way that we have
standalone functions that do either the skb construction or frag
addition to previously constructed skb.
The skb handling between rx_bufs is spread among various functions. The
ice_get_rx_buf will retrieve the skb pointer from rx_buf and if it is a
NULL pointer then we do the ice_construct_skb, otherwise we add a frag
to the current skb via ice_add_rx_frag. Then, on the ice_put_rx_buf the
skb pointer that belongs to rx_buf will be cleared. Moving further, if
the current frame is not EOP frame we assign the current skb to the
rx_buf that is pointed by updated next_to_clean indicator.
What is more during the buffer reuse let's assign each member of
ice_rx_buf individually so we avoid the unnecessary copy of skb.
Last but not least, this logic split will allow us for better code reuse
when adding a support for build_skb.

{get,put}_page are atomic operations which we use for page count
handling. The current logic for refcount handling is that we increment
it when passing a skb with the data from the first half of page up to
netstack and recycle the second half of page. This operation protects us
from losing a page since the network stack can decrement the refcount of
page from skb.
The performance can be gently improved by doing the bulk updates of
refcount instead of doing it one by one. During the buffer initialization,
maximize the page's refcount and don't allow the refcount to become
less than two.

Instead of adding a frag and later when dealing with EOP frame accessing
that frag in order to copy the headers onto linear part of skb, we can do
this in ice_add_rx_frag in case where the data_len is still 0 and frame
won't fit onto the linear part as a whole.
Function comment of ice_pull_tail was a bit misleading because of
mentioned optimizations that can be performed (drop a frag/maintaining
accurate truesize of skb) - it seems that this part of logic was dropped
and the comment was not updated to reflect this change.

Currently we set the default number of Tx and Rx descriptors to 128 by
default. For Rx this amounts to a full page (assuming 4K pages) because
each Rx descriptor is 32 Bytes, but for Tx it only amounts to a half
page because each Tx descriptor is 16 Bytes (assuming 4K pages).
Instead of assuming 4K pages, determine the ring size and the number of
descriptors for Tx and Rx based on a calculation using the PAGE_SIZE,
ICE_MAX_NUM_DESC, and ICE_REQ_DESC_MULTIPLE. This change is being made
to improve the performance of the driver when using the default
settings.

Currently the driver does not support adaptive/dynamic interrupt
moderation. This patch adds support for this. Also, adaptive/dynamic
interrupt moderation is turned on by default upon driver load.
In order to support adaptive interrupt moderation, two functions were
added, ice_update_itr() and ice_itr_divisor(). These are used to
determine the current packet load and to determine a divisor based
on link speed respectively.
This patch also adds the ICE_ITR_GRAN_S define that is used in the
hot-path when setting a new ITR value. The shift is used to pet two
birds with one hand, set the ITR value while re-enabling the
interrupt. Also, the ICE_ITR_GRAN_S is defined as 1 because the device
has a ITR granularity of 2usecs.

While reviewing code, I noticed that Eric Dumazet recommends that
drivers check the return code of napi_complete_done, and use that
to decide to enable interrupts or not when exiting poll. One of
the Intel drivers was already fixed (ixgbe).
Upon looking at the Intel drivers as a whole, we are handling our
polling and NAPI exit in a few different ways based on whether we
have multiqueue and whether we have Tx cleanup included. Several
drivers had the bug of exiting NAPI with return 0, which appears
to mess up the accounting in the stack.
Consolidate all the NAPI routines to do best known way of exiting
and to just mostly look like each other.
1) check return code of napi_complete_done to control interrupt enable
2) return the actual amount of work done.
3) return budget immediately if need NAPI poll again
Tested the changes on e1000e with a high interrupt rate set, and
it shows about an 8% reduction in the CPU utilization when busy
polling because we aren't re-enabling interrupts when we're about
to be polled.

Currently if the driver does a TSO offload the bytecount sent to
netdev_tx_sent_queue will be incorrect. This is because in ice_tso we
overwrite the initial value that we set in ice_tx_map. This creates a
mismatch between the Tx and Tx clean flow. In the Tx clean flow we
calculate the bytecount (called total_bytes) as we clean the
descriptors so the value used in the Tx clean path is correct. Fix this
by using += in ice_tso instead of =. This fixes the mismatch in
bytecount mentioned above.

Prior to this commit the driver was running into tx_timeouts when a
queue was stressed enough. This was happening because the HW tail
and SW tail (NTU) were incorrectly out of sync. Consequently this was
causing the HW head to collide with the HW tail, which to the hardware
means that all descriptors posted for Tx have been processed.
Due to the Tx logic used in the driver SW tail and HW tail are allowed
to be out of sync. This is done as an optimization because it allows the
driver to write HW tail as infrequently as possible, while still
updating the SW tail index to keep track. However, there are situations
where this results in the tail never getting updated, resulting in Tx
timeouts.
Tx HW tail write condition:
if (netif_xmit_stopped(txring_txq(tx_ring) || !skb->xmit_more)
writel(sw_tail, tx_ring->tail);
An issue was found in the Tx logic that was causing the afore mentioned
condition for updating HW tail to never happen, causing tx_timeouts.
In ice_xmit_frame_ring we calculate how many descriptors we need for the
Tx transaction based on the skb the kernel hands us. This is then passed
into ice_maybe_stop_tx along with some extra padding to determine if we
have enough descriptors available for this transaction. If we don't then
we return -EBUSY to the stack, otherwise we move on and eventually
prepare the Tx descriptors accordingly in ice_tx_map and set
next_to_watch. In ice_tx_map we make another call to ice_maybe_stop_tx
with a value of MAX_SKB_FRAGS + 4. The key here is that this value is
possibly less than the value we sent in the first call to
ice_maybe_stop_tx in ice_xmit_frame_ring. Now, if the number of unused
descriptors is between MAX_SKB_FRAGS + 4 and the value used in the first
call to ice_maybe_stop_tx in ice_xmit_frame_ring then we do not update
the HW tail because of the "Tx HW tail write condition" above. This is
because in ice_maybe_stop_tx we return success from ice_maybe_stop_tx
instead of calling __ice_maybe_stop_tx and subsequently calling
netif_stop_subqueue, which sets the __QUEUE_STATE_DEV_XOFF bit. This
bit is then checked in the "Tx HW tail write condition" by calling
netif_xmit_stopped and subsequently updating HW tail if the
afore mentioned bit is set.
In ice_clean_tx_irq, if next_to_watch is not NULL, we end up cleaning
the descriptors that HW sets the DD bit on and we have the budget. The
HW head will eventually run into the HW tail in response to the
description in the paragraph above.
The next time through ice_xmit_frame_ring we make the initial call to
ice_maybe_stop_tx with another skb from the stack. This time we do not
have enough descriptors available and we return NETDEV_TX_BUSY to the
stack and end up setting next_to_watch to NULL.
This is where we are stuck. In ice_clean_tx_irq we never clean anything
because next_to_watch is always NULL and in ice_xmit_frame_ring we never
update HW tail because we already return NETDEV_TX_BUSY to the stack and
eventually we hit a tx_timeout.
This issue was fixed by making sure that the second call to
ice_maybe_stop_tx in ice_tx_map is passed a value that is >= the value
that was used on the initial call to ice_maybe_stop_tx in
ice_xmit_frame_ring. This was done by adding the following defines to
make the logic more clear and to reduce the chance of mucking this up
again:
ICE_CACHE_LINE_BYTES 64
ICE_DESCS_PER_CACHE_LINE (ICE_CACHE_LINE_BYTES / \
sizeof(struct ice_tx_desc))
ICE_DESCS_FOR_CTX_DESC 1
ICE_DESCS_FOR_SKB_DATA_PTR 1
The ICE_CACHE_LINE_BYTES being 64 is an assumption being made so we
don't have to figure this out on every pass through the Tx path. Instead
I added a sanity check in ice_probe to verify cache line size and print
a message if it's not 64 Bytes. This will make it easier to file issues
if they are seen when the cache line size is not 64 Bytes when reading
from the GLPCI_CNF2 register.

When a malicious operation is detected, the firmware triggers an
interrupt, which is then picked up by the service task (specifically by
ice_handle_mdd_event). A reset is scheduled if required.
Tx hang detection works in a similar way, except the logic here monitors
the VSI's Tx queues and tries to revive them if stalled. If the hang is
not resolved, the kernel eventually calls ndo_tx_timeout, which is
handled by ice_tx_timeout.

This patch adds support for VLANs. When a VLAN is created a switch filter
is added to direct the VLAN traffic to the corresponding VSI. When a VLAN
is deleted, the filter is deleted as well.
This patch also adds support for the following hardware offloads.
1) VLAN tag insertion/stripping
2) Receive Side Scaling (RSS)
3) Tx checksum and TCP segmentation
4) Rx checksum

This patch implements ice_start_xmit (the handler for ndo_start_xmit) and
related functions. ice_start_xmit ultimately calls ice_tx_map, where the
Tx descriptor is built and posted to the hardware by bumping the ring tail.
This patch also implements ice_napi_poll, which is invoked when there's an
interrupt on the VSI's queues. The interrupt can be due to either a
completed Tx or an Rx event. In case of a completed Tx/Rx event, resources
are reclaimed. Additionally, in case of an Rx event, the skb is fetched
and passed up to the network stack.

This patch configures the VSIs to be able to send and receive
packets by doing the following:
1) Initialize flexible parser to extract and include certain
fields in the Rx descriptor.
2) Add Tx queues by programming the Tx queue context (implemented in
ice_vsi_cfg_txqs). Note that adding the queues also enables (starts)
the queues.
3) Add Rx queues by programming Rx queue context (implemented in
ice_vsi_cfg_rxqs). Note that this only adds queues but doesn't start
them. The rings will be started by calling ice_vsi_start_rx_rings on
interface up.
4) Configure interrupts for VSI queues.
5) Implement ice_open and ice_stop.
