2016-05-12qed*: IOV link controlYuval Mintz6-0/+280
This adds support in 2 ndo that allow PF to tweak the VF's view of the link - `ndo_set_vf_link_state' to allow it a view independent of the PF's, and `ndo_set_vf_rate' which would allow the PF to limit the VF speed.

2016-05-12qed*: Support forced MACYuval Mintz8-0/+234
Allows the PF to enforce the VF's mac. i.e., by using `ip link ... vf <x> mac <value>'. While a MAC is forced, PF would prevent the VF from configuring any other MAC. Signed-off-by: Yuval Mintz <Yuval.Mintz@qlogic.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2016-05-12qed*: Support PVID configurationYuval Mintz9-7/+468
This adds support for PF control over the VF vlan configuration. I.e., `ip link ... vf <x> vlan <vid>' should now be supported. 1. <vid> != 0 => VF receives [unknowingly] only traffic tagged by <vid> and tags all outgoing traffic sent by VF with <vid>. 2. <vid> == 0 ==> Remove the pvid configuration, reverting to previous.

2016-05-12qede: Add VF supportYuval Mintz3-9/+90
Adding a PCI callback for `sriov_configure' and a new PCI device id for the VF [+ Some minor changes to accomodate differences between PF and VF at the qede]. Following this, VF creation should be possible and the entire subset of existing PF functionality that's allow to VFs should be supported.

2016-05-12qed: Align TLVsYuval Mintz6-2/+375
As the VF infrastructure is supposed to offer backward/forward compatibility, the various types associated with VF<->PF communication should be aligned across all various platforms that support IOV on our family of adapters. This adds a couple of currently missing values, specifically aligning the enum for the various TLVs possible in the communication between them. It then adds the PF implementation for some of those missing VF requests. This support isn't really necessary for the Linux VF as those VFs aren't requiring it [at least today], but are required by VFs running on other OSes. LRO is an example of one such configuration.

2016-05-12qed: Bulletin and LinkYuval Mintz5-6/+425
Up to this point, VF and PF communication always originates from VF. As a result, VF cannot be notified of any async changes, and specifically cannot be informed of the current link state. This introduces the bulletin board, the mechanism through which the PF is going to communicate async notifications back to the VF. basically, it's a well-defined structure agreed by both PF and VF which the VF would continuously poll and into which the PF would DMA messages when needed. [Bulletin board is actually allocated and communicated in previous patches but never before used] Based on the bulletin infrastructure, the VF can query its link status and receive said async carrier changes.

2016-05-12qed: IOV l2 functionalityYuval Mintz9-246/+1957
This adds sufficient changes to allow VFs l2-configuration flows to work. While the fastpath of the VF and the PF are meant to be exactly the same, the configuration of the VF is done by the PF. This diverges all VF-related configuration flows that originate from a VF, making them pass through the VF->PF channel and adding sufficient logic on the PF side to support them.

2016-05-12qed: IOV configure and FLRYuval Mintz15-11/+983
While previous patches have already added the necessary logic to probe VFs as well as enabling them in the HW, this patch adds the ability to support VF FLR & SRIOV disable. It then wraps both flows together into the first IOV callback to be provided to the protocol driver - `configure'. This would later to be used to enable and disable SRIOV in the adapter.

2016-05-12qed: Introduce VFsYuval Mintz25-188/+1842
This adds the qed VFs for the first time - The vfs are limited functions, with a very different PCI bar structure [when compared with PFs] to better impose the related security demands associated with them. This patch includes the logic neccesary to allow VFs to successfully probe [without actually adding the ability to enable iov]. This includes diverging all the flows that would occur as part of the pci probe of the driver, preventing VF from accessing registers/memories it can't and instead utilize the VF->PF channel to query the PF for needed information.

2016-05-12qed: Add VF->PF channel infrastructureYuval Mintz10-15/+585
Communication between VF and PF is based on a dedicated HW channel; VF will prepare a messge, and by signaling the HW the PF would get a notification of that message existance. The PF would then copy the message, process it and DMA an answer back to the VF as a response. The messages themselves are TLV-based - allowing easier backward/forward compatibility. This patch adds the infrastructure of the channel on the PF side - starting with the arrival of the notification and ending with DMAing the response back to the VF. It also adds a dummy-response as reference, as it only lays the groundwork of the communication; it doesn't really add support of any actual messages.

2016-05-12qed: Add CONFIG_QED_SRIOVYuval Mintz9-0/+650
Add support for a new Kconfig option for qed* driver which would allow [eventually] the support in VFs. This patch adds the necessary logic in the PF to learn about the possible VFs it will have to support [Based on PCI configuration space and HW], and prepare a database with an entry per-VF as infrastructure for future interaction with said VFs.

A switch can export an attached EEPROM using the standard ethtool API. However the switch itself cannot determine the size of the EEPROM, and multiple sizes are allowed.

2016-05-11net: original ingress device index in PKTINFODavid Ahern3-1/+8
Applications such as OSPF and BFD need the original ingress device not the VRF device; the latter can be derived from the former. To that end add the skb_iif to inet_skb_parm and set it in ipv4 code after clearing the skb control buffer similar to IPv6. From there the pktinfo can just pull it from cb with the PKTINFO_SKB_CB cast. The previous patch moving the skb->dev change to L3 means nothing else is needed for IPv6; it just works.

2016-05-11net: l3mdev: Add hook in ip and ipv6David Ahern8-101/+170
Currently the VRF driver uses the rx_handler to switch the skb device to the VRF device. Switching the dev prior to the ip / ipv6 layer means the VRF driver has to duplicate IP/IPv6 processing which adds overhead and makes features such as retaining the ingress device index more complicated than necessary. This patch moves the hook to the L3 layer just after the first NF_HOOK for PRE_ROUTING. This location makes exposing the original ingress device trivial (next patch) and allows adding other NF_HOOKs to the VRF driver in the future. dev_queue_xmit_nit is exported so that the VRF driver can cycle the skb with the switched device through the packet taps to maintain current behavior (tcpdump can be used on either the vrf device or the enslaved devices).

2016-05-10gtp: add initial driver for datapath of GPRS Tunneling Protocol (GTP-U)Pablo Neira8-1/+1462
This is an initial implementation of a netdev driver for GTP datapath (GTP-U) v0 and v1, according to the GSM TS 09.60 and 3GPP TS 29.060 standards. This tunneling protocol is used to prevent subscribers from accessing mobile carrier core network infrastructure. This implementation requires a GGSN userspace daemon that implements the signaling protocol (GTP-C), such as OpenGGSN [1]. This userspace daemon updates the PDP context database that represents active subscriber sessions through a genetlink interface. For more context on this tunneling protocol, you can check the slides that were presented during the NetDev 1.1 [2]. Only IPv4 is supported at this time.

2016-05-10batman-adv: add detection for complex bridge loopsSimon Wunderlich5-2/+156
There are network setups where the current bridge loop avoidance can't detect bridge loops. The minimal setup affected would consist of two LANs and two separate meshes, connected in a ring like that: A...(mesh1)...B | | (LAN1) (LAN2) | | C...(mesh2)...D Since both the meshes and backbones are separate, the bridge loop avoidance has not enough information to detect and avoid the loop in this case. Even if these scenarios can't be fixed easily, these kind of loops can be detected. This patch implements a periodic check (running every 60 seconds for now) which sends a broadcast frame with a random MAC address on each backbone VLAN. If a broadcast frame with the same MAC address is received shortly after on the mesh, we know that there must be a loop and report that incident as well as throw an uevent to let others handle that problem.

2016-05-10batman-adv: Create batman soft interfaces within correct netns.Andrew Lunn6-12/+18
When creating a soft interface, create it in the same netns as the hard interface. Replace all references to init_net with the correct name space for the interface being manipulated.

2016-05-10batman-adv: NETIF_F_NETNS_LOCAL feature to prevent netns movesAndrew Lunn1-1/+1
The batX soft interface should not be moved between network name spaces. This is similar to bridges, bonds, tunnels, which are not allowed to move between network namespaces.
