I've seen timeout errors from HCI commands where it looks like
schedule_timeout() has returned immediately; additional logging for the
error case gives:
req_status=1 req_result=0 remaining=10000 jiffies
so the device is still in state HCI_REQ_PEND and the value returned by
schedule_timeout() is the same as the original timeout (HCI_INIT_TIMEOUT
on a system with HZ=1000).
Use wait_event_interruptible_timeout() instead of open-coding similar
behaviour which is subject to the spurious failure described above.

btbcm_setup_patchram() was using the upper nibble of the revision code to
determine if we are dealing with an uart or USB connected bcm-bt device,
but just as btbcm_initialize() has started accepting 1 and 2 as uart
connected devices, I've now encountered an USB connected device (0a5c:216c)
which has 0 in the upper nibble. So it seems that the upper nibble is not
really a reliable indicator of the bus type.
Instead check hdev->bus which does give us a reliable indication. This
fixes the patchram code trying to load the patchram by the fallback BCM.hcd
filename, now it correctly requests BCM43142A0-0a5c-216c.hcd.

This patch makes use of build_skb() throughout in driver's receieve
data path [HW gro flow and non HW gro flow]. With this, driver can
build skb directly from the page segments which are already mapped
to the hardware instead of allocating new SKB via netdev_alloc_skb()
and memcpy the data which is quite costly.
This really improves performance (keeping same or slight gain in rx
throughput) in terms of CPU utilization which is significantly reduced
[almost half] in non HW gro flow where for every incoming MTU sized
packet driver had to allocate skb, memcpy headers etc. Additionally
in that flow, it also gets rid of bunch of additional overheads
[eth_get_headlen() etc.] to split headers and data in the skb.

Emil modifies ixgbe to not validate the MAC address during a reset,
unless the MAC was set on the host so that the VF will get a new MAC

net: mvpp2: phylink conversion
This series convert the Marvell PPv2 driver to phylink (models the MAC
to PHY link).
One important point is the PPv2 driver supports two probe modes: device
tree and ACPI. This series only brings phylink support for the device
tree mode, as the ACPI one will need further work. Still, the driver
should be working as before when using ACPI. This split should be
temporary, and was discussed with Marcin (in Cc.) who added ACPI support
to the driver.
Also as the SFP cages on both DB boards can be considered as non-wired.
We thus chose not to describe those SFP cages and we use fixed-link.
The rest of the series uses phylink to add support for 1000BaseX and
2500BaseX modes in the PPv2 driver. To do this, two patches are needed
in the common PHY framework (patches 3 and 4). The last 4 patches modify
the device tree to use the new PPv2 functionalities.
The series has been tested for the device tree mode on the 7040-db,
8040-db and 8040-mcbin boards, to ensure all the interface where working
as expected.
@Dave: patches 7 to 10 should go through the mvebu tree (Gregory in
Cc.) to avoid any conflict with the other mvebu dt patches taken during
this cycle.
The series is based on today's net-next.
Since v2:
- Removed the SFP description from the DB boards, as their SFP cages
are wired properly. We now use fixed-link.
- Because of this rework, split the series in two, so that the SFP
part is reviewed separately.
- Small fixes in the phylink patch.
- Rebased on the latest net-next branch.
Since v1:
- Chose a different approach to the SFP changes, as the previous ones
weren't valid and reworked both BD boards device trees.
- Misc fixes.
- Added Kishon's acked-by on one patch.
- Rebaed on latest net-next branch.

Convert the PPv2 driver to implement phylink helpers, and use phylink in
DT mode. The other mode supported is ACPI, which will need further work
in order to be entirely compatible with phylink.
The MAC and GoP configuration functions were completely moved to fit
into the phylink helpers. When a PHY is always present between the MAC
and the physical port, phylink only is used, but when this is not the
case (the MAC directly is connected to the physical port) the link IRQ
is used to detect changes in the link state and call phylink_mac_change.
The ACPI mode do not uses phylink as of now, and the changes shouldn't
impact its use.

tcp: default RACK loss recovery
This patch set implements the features correspond to the
draft-ietf-tcpm-rack-03 version of the RACK draft.
https://datatracker.ietf.org/meeting/101/materials/slides-101-tcpm-update-on-tcp-rack-00
1. SACK: implement equivalent DUPACK threshold heuristic in RACK to
replace existing RFC6675 recovery (tcp_mark_head_lost).
2. Non-SACK: simplify RFC6582 NewReno implementation
3. RTO: apply RACK's time-based approach to avoid spuriouly
marking very recently sent packets lost.
4. with (1)(2)(3), make RACK the exclusive fast recovery mechanism to
mark losses based on time on S/ACK. Tail loss probe and F-RTO remain
enabled by default as complementary mechanisms to send probes in
CA_Open and CA_Loss states. The probes would solicit S/ACKs to trigger
RACK time-based loss detection.
All Google web and internal servers have been running RACK-only mode
(4) for a while now. a/b experiments indicate RACK/TLP on average
reduces recovery latency by 10% compared to RFC6675. RFC6675
is default-off now but can be enabled by disabling RACK (sysctl
net.ipv4.tcp_recovery=0) for unseen issues.

An RTO event indicates the head has not been acked for a long time
after its last (re)transmission. But the other packets are not
necessarily lost if they have been only sent recently (for example
due to application limit). This patch would prohibit marking packets
sent within an RTT to be lost on RTO event, using similar logic in
TCP RACK detection.
Normally the head (SND.UNA) would be marked lost since RTO should
fire strictly after the head was sent. An exception is when the
most recent RACK RTT measurement is larger than the (previous)
RTO. To address this exception the head is always marked lost.
Congestion control interaction: since we may not mark every packet
lost, the congestion window may be more than 1 (inflight plus 1).
But only one packet will be retransmitted after RTO, since
tcp_retransmit_timer() calls tcp_retransmit_skb(...,segs=1). The
connection still performs slow start from one packet (with Cubic
congestion control).
This commit was tested in an A/B test with Google web servers,
and showed a reduction of 2% in (spurious) retransmits post
timeout (SlowStartRetrans), and correspondingly reduced DSACKs
(DSACKIgnoredOld) by 7%.

Previously when TCP times out, it first updates cwnd and ssthresh,
marks packets lost, and then updates congestion state again. This
was fine because everything not yet delivered is marked lost,
so the inflight is always 0 and cwnd can be safely set to 1 to
retransmit one packet on timeout.
But the inflight may not always be 0 on timeout if TCP changes to
mark packets lost based on packet sent time. Therefore we must
first mark the packet lost, then set the cwnd based on the
(updated) inflight.
This is not a pure refactor. Congestion control may potentially
break if it uses (not yet updated) inflight to compute ssthresh.
Fortunately all existing congestion control modules does not do that.
Also it changes the inflight when CA_LOSS_EVENT is called, and only
westwood processes such an event but does not use inflight.
This change has two other minor side benefits:
1) consistent with Fast Recovery s.t. the inflight is updated
first before tcp_enter_recovery flips state to CA_Recovery.
2) avoid intertwining loss marking with state update, making the
code more readable.

The previous approach for the lost and retransmit bits was to
wipe the slate clean: zero all the lost and retransmit bits,
correspondingly zero the lost_out and retrans_out counters, and
then add back the lost bits (and correspondingly increment lost_out).
The new approach is to treat this very much like marking packets
lost in fast recovery. We don’t wipe the slate clean. We just say
that for all packets that were not yet marked sacked or lost, we now
mark them as lost in exactly the same way we do for fast recovery.
This fixes the lost retransmit accounting at RTO time and greatly
simplifies the RTO code by sharing much of the logic with Fast
Recovery.

This is a rewrite of NewReno loss recovery implementation that is
simpler and standalone for readability and better performance by
using less states.
Note that NewReno refers to RFC6582 as a modification to the fast
recovery algorithm. It is used only if the connection does not
support SACK in Linux. It should not to be confused with the Reno
(AIMD) congestion control.
