Francois Romieu da78dbff2e r8169: remove work from irq handler.
The irq handler was a mess.

See 7ab87ff4c7 ("via-rhine: move work from
irq handler to softirq and beyond") for similar changes. One can notice:
- all non-napi tasks are explicitely scheduled trough a single work queue.
- hiding software tx queue start behind the rtl_hw_start method is mildly
  natural. Move it in the caller where needed.
- as can be seen from the heavy use of bh disabling locks, the driver is
  not safe for irq context messages with netconsole. It is still quite
  usable for general messaging though. Tested ok with concurrent registers
  dump (ethtool -d) + background traffic + "echo t > /proc/sysrq-trigger".

Tested with old PCI chipset, PCIe 8168 and 810x:
- XID 0c900800 RTL8168evl/8111evl
- XID 18000000 RTL8168b/8111b
- XID 98000000 RTL8169sc/8110sc
- XID 083000c0 RTL8168d/8111d
- XID 081000c0 RTL8168d/8111d
- XID 00b00000 RTL8105e
- XID 04a00000 RTL8102e

As a side note, the comments in f11a377b3f
("r8169: avoid losing MSI interrupts") does not seem completely clear: if
I hack the driver further to stop acking the irq link event bit, MSI
interrupts keep being delivered (RTL8168b/8111b, XID 18000000).

Francois Romieu 209e5ac83b r8169: remove rtl8169_reinit_task.
I see no good reason to keep both rtl8169_reinit_task and rtl8169_reset_task:
- rtl8169_reinit_task adds a software failure point which does relate to
  any hardware state
- they handle hardware the same. Remember that rtl8169_reinit_task was
  introduced in the 8169 only era to handle PCI errors way before the 8168
  asked for pll and firmware ops and compare :

The generic lib.c file contains code relative to the various MACs, NVM and
Manageability supported by the driver.  This patch splits the file into
three which are specific to those areas similar to how the PHY-specific
code is in phy.c and code specific to the 80003es2lan, 8257x, and ichX
MAC families are in their own files.  The generic code that is applicable
to all MAC/PHY parts supported by the driver remains in netdev.c, param.c
and ethtool.c files.  No change in functionality, just moving code
around for ease of maintenance, with some whitespace and other checkpatch
cleanups.

Ben Hutchings f9c762500a sfc: Make all MAC statistics consistently 64 bits wide
Currently we use type u64 for byte counts, which can very quickly
exceed 2^32, and unsigned long for packet counts, which do not.  But
it can still take only 20-something minutes to send or receive 2^32
packets, and not all tools properly handle overflow even if they
sample more often than this.

The MAC statistics are all updated synchronously, so it costs very
little to make them all 64-bit regardless of native word size.

Ben Hutchings 1646a6f352 sfc: Clean up test interrupt handling
Interrupts are normally generated by the event queues, moderated by
timers.  However, they may also be triggered by detection of a 'fatal'
error condition (e.g. memory parity error) or by the host writing to
certain CSR fields as part of a self-test.

The IRQ level/index used for these on Falcon rev B0 and Siena is set
by the KER_INT_LEVE_SEL field and cached by the driver in
efx_nic::fatal_irq_level.  Since this value is also relevant to
self-tests rename the field to just 'irq_level'.

Avoid unnecessary cache traffic by using a per-channel 'last_irq_cpu'
field and only writing to the per-controller field when the interrupt
matches efx_nic::irq_level.  Remove the volatile qualifier and use
ACCESS_ONCE in the places we read these fields.

This reverts commit 6369545945 in
drivers/net/ethernet/sfc/falcon.c.

Unlike the INT_ISR0 register on later controller revisions, the
NET_IVEC_INT_Q bits written to memory are only ever set for
interrupting event queues, not for any other interrupt sources.

By definition there can only be one legacy interrupt handler per
function, so there is no need to worry about detecting a fatal
interrupt more than once.

Ben Hutchings 0fb53faa2e sfc: Remove dependence on NAPI polling in efx_test_eventq_irq()
We cannot safely assume that the NAPI handler will complete within the
20 ms that we allow for the event self-test.  The handler may be
deferred for longer than this, particularly on realtime kernels.

Instead, check whether either an event has been handled or (as in the
old failure path) whether an interrupt has been received and an event
has been delivered but not yet handled.  Use napi_disable() to
synchronize with the NAPI handler before checking, since it will
clear events before updating eventq_read_ptr.

Remove the test result chan.N.eventq.poll, since it is not an error
if the NAPI handler does not run during the test.

Ben Hutchings cc180b69c0 sfc: Correct interrupt timer quantum for Siena (normal and turbo mode)
We currently assume that the timer quantum for Siena is 5 us, the same
as for Falcon.  This is not correct; timer ticks are generated on a
rota which takes a minimum of 768 cycles (each event delivery or other
timer change will delay it by 3 cycles).  The timer quantum should be
6.144 or 3.072 us depending on whether turbo mode is active.

Replace EFX_IRQ_MOD_RESOLUTION with a timer_quantum_ns field in struct
efx_nic, initialised by the efx_nic_type::probe function.

Ben Hutchings 3f713bf4dd sfc: Make handling of MC reboot more reliable
When the MC reboots, either as part of a firmware upgrade or due to a
bug, it attempts to complete (with an error) any requests that were
outstanding before the reboot.  Since there is an inherent race
condition in checking this, it will also write to a status word in
shared memory.

If we look at each of these separately, we may detect each reboot
twice, resulting in a spurious command failure after a firmware
upgrade or frustrating recovery from a firmware bug.  Instead, if a
request completion indicates a reboot, we must poll and clear the
status word.

This bug was previously masked by use of an incorrect address for the
status word.  Fix that, using the definition now included in
mcdi_pcol.h.

Ariel Elior 95c6c6165e bnx2x: Recovery flow bug fixes
1. Sample mcp pulse and mcp sequence in nic load instead of in init_one
as they may change by the time we want to use them.

2. Allow cnic to access device during nic load (by adding a new "LOADING" state
to recovery flow). This prevents the unnecessary cnic timeout which resulted
by cnic attempting to access because nic is loading, but being blocked because
of the Recovery state.

3. Issue 'fake' driver load command to mcp when last driver unloads to prevent
mcp from taking ownership. When recovery is complete unload fake driver to
allow mcp to initialize the hardware before first driver loads.

Ariel Elior 889b9af34f bnx2x: Track active PFs with bitmap
The recovery register (to which a hardware lock has been added in previous
patch) is used amongst other things to track the active PFs. The old
implementation which used a per path counter is not viable in a virtualized
environment where a pf may increment the counter and then have the kernel
crash around it preventing the counter from ever reaching zero.
In the new implementation the scenario described will result in the PF timing
out against the mcp, which will clear the PF's bit in the bitmask allowing
recovery process to proceed.
