Ben Hutchings c04bfc6b22 sfc: Remove ancient support for nesting of TX stop
Long before this driver went into mainline, it had support for
multiple TX queues per port, with lockless TX enabled.  Since Linux
did not know anything of this, filling up any hardware TX queue would
stop the core TX queue and multiple hardware TX queues could fill up
before the scheduler reacted.  Thus it was necessary to keep a count
of how many TX queues were stopped and to wake the core TX queue only
when all had free space again.

The driver also previously (ab)used the per-hardware-queue stopped
flag as a counter to deal with various things that can inhibit TX, but
it no longer does that.

Remove the per-channel tx_stop_count, tx_stop_lock and
per-hardware-queue stopped count and just use the networking core
queue state directly.

Ben Hutchings 94dec6a2d2 sfc: Fix crash in legacy onterrupt handler during ring reallocation
If we are using a legacy interrupt, our IRQ may be shared and our
interrupt handler may be called even though interrupts are disabled on
the NIC. When we change ring sizes, we reallocate the event queue and
the interrupt handler may use an invalid pointer when called for
another device's interrupt.

Maintain a legacy_irq_enabled flag and test that at the top of the
interrupt handler.  Note that this problem results from the need to
work around broken INT_ISR0 reads, and does not affect the legacy
interrupt handler for Falcon A1.

Eric Dumazet 28172739f0 net: fix 64 bit counters on 32 bit arches
There is a small possibility that a reader gets incorrect values on 32
bit arches. SNMP applications could catch incorrect counters when a
32bit high part is changed by another stats consumer/provider.

One way to solve this is to add a rtnl_link_stats64 param to all
ndo_get_stats64() methods, and also add such a parameter to
dev_get_stats().

Rule is that we are not allowed to use dev->stats64 as a temporary
storage for 64bit stats, but a caller provided area (usually on stack)

Old drivers (only providing get_stats() method) need no changes.

Ensure that efx_fast_push_rx_descriptors() must only run
from efx_process_channel() [NAPI], or when napi_disable()

Reimplement the slow fill by sending an event to the

fast fill off the event handler. Replace the sfc_refill
workqueue and delayed work items with a timer. We do
not need to stop this timer in efx_flush_all() because
it's safe to send the event always; receiving it will
be delayed until NAPI is restarted.

Steve Hodgson fd371e32fe sfc: Workaround flush failures on Falcon B0
Under certain conditions a PHY may backpressure Falcon B0
in such a way that flushes timeout. In normal circumstances
the phy poller would fix the PHY, and the flush could complete.

But efx_nic_flush_queues() is always called after efx_stop_all(),
so the poller has been stopped. Even if this weren't the case,
how long would we have to wait for the poller to fix this? And
several callers of efx_nic_flush_queues() are about to reset
the device anyway - so we don't need to do anything.

Work around this bug by scheduling a reset. Ensure that the
MAC is never rewired back into the datapath before the reset
runs (we already ignore all rx events anyway).

Tejun Heo 5a0e3ad6af include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.

  http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

The script does the followings.

* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
  only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
  gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
  blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
  to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
  core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
  alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
  doesn't seem to be any matching order.

* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
  because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
  an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
  file.

The conversion was done in the following steps.

1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
   over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
   and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
   files.

2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
   some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
   embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
   inclusions to around 150 files.

3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
   from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
   e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
   APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
   editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
   files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
   inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
   wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
   slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
   necessary.

6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
   were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
   distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
   more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
   build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

   * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
   * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
   * s390 SMP allmodconfig
   * alpha SMP allmodconfig
   * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
   a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

Steve Hodgson 5e2a911cec sfc: Fix SFE4002 initialisation
From: Steve Hodgson <shodgson@solarflare.com>

Commit 357d46a17e "sfc: QT202x: Remove
unreliable MMD check at initialisation" broke initialisation of the
SFE4002.  efx_mdio_reset_mmd() returns a positive value rather than 0
on success.  The above commit causes this value to be propagated up
by qt202x_reset_phy(), which is treated as a failure by its callers.
Change qt202x_reset_phy() to return 0 if successful.

The PCI layer treats >0 as "fail, but please call remove() anyway",
which means that unloading the driver would cause a crash.  Add a
WARN_ON() on the failure path of efx_pci_probe() to provide early
warning if there are any other cases where we do this.

Ben Hutchings 7688483568 sfc: Extend MTD driver for use with new NICs
In new NICs flash is managed by firmware and we will use high-level
operations on partitions rather than direct SPI commands.  Add support
for multiple MTD partitions per flash device and remove the direct
link between MTD and SPI devices.  Maintain a list of MTD partitions
in struct efx_nic.
