mlx4_en_alloc_frags currently returns -ENOMEM when mlx4_alloc_page
fails but does not increment a stat field when this occurs.
A new field called alloc_fail has been added to struct mlx4_en_rx_ring
which is now incremented in mlx4_en_rx_ring when -ENOMEM occurs.

Use a notifier to implement mlx4_dispatch_event() in preparation to
switch mlx4_en and mlx4_ib to be an auxiliary device.
A problem is that if the mlx4_interface.event callback was replaced with
something as mlx4_adrv.event then the implementation of
mlx4_dispatch_event() would need to acquire a lock on a given device
before executing this callback. That is necessary because otherwise
there is no guarantee that the associated driver cannot get unbound when
the callback is running. However, taking this lock is not possible
because mlx4_dispatch_event() can be invoked from the hardirq context.
Using an atomic notifier allows the driver to accurately record when it
wants to receive these events and solves this problem.
A handler registration is done by both mlx4_en and mlx4_ib at the end of
their mlx4_interface.add callback. This matches the current situation
when mlx4_add_device() would enable events for a given device
immediately after this callback, by adding the device on the
mlx4_priv.list.

The RSS hash type specifies what portion of packet data NIC hardware used
when calculating RSS hash value. The RSS types are focused on Internet
traffic protocols at OSI layers L3 and L4. L2 (e.g. ARP) often get hash
value zero and no RSS type. For L3 focused on IPv4 vs. IPv6, and L4
primarily TCP vs UDP, but some hardware supports SCTP.
Hardware RSS types are differently encoded for each hardware NIC. Most
hardware represent RSS hash type as a number. Determining L3 vs L4 often
requires a mapping table as there often isn't a pattern or sorting
according to ISO layer.
The patch introduce a XDP RSS hash type (enum xdp_rss_hash_type) that
contains both BITs for the L3/L4 types, and combinations to be used by
drivers for their mapping tables. The enum xdp_rss_type_bits get exposed
to BPF via BTF, and it is up to the BPF-programmer to match using these
defines.
This proposal change the kfunc API bpf_xdp_metadata_rx_hash() adding
a pointer value argument for provide the RSS hash type.
Change signature for all xmo_rx_hash calls in drivers to make it compile.
The RSS type implementations for each driver comes as separate patches.

Google production kernel has increased MAX_SKB_FRAGS to 45
for BIG-TCP rollout.
Unfortunately mlx4 TX bounce buffer is not big enough whenever
an skb has up to 45 page fragments.
This can happen often with TCP TX zero copy, as one frag usually
holds 4096 bytes of payload (order-0 page).
Tested:
Kernel built with MAX_SKB_FRAGS=45
ip link set dev eth0 gso_max_size 185000
netperf -t TCP_SENDFILE
I made sure that "ethtool -G eth0 tx 64" was properly working,
ring->full_size being set to 15.

This patch caches doorbell address directly in struct mlx4_en_tx_ring.
This removes the need to bring in cpu caches whole struct mlx4_uar
in fast path.
Note that mlx4_uar is not guaranteed to be on a local node,
because mlx4_bf_alloc() uses a single free list (priv->bf_list)
regardless of its node parameter.
This kind of change does matter in presence of light/moderate traffic.
In high stress, this read-only line would be kept hot in caches.

This patch fixes a bug that the moderation config will not be
applied when calling mlx4_en_reset_config. For example, when
turning on rx timestamping, mlx4_en_reset_config() will be called,
causing the NIC to forget previous moderation config.
This fix is in phase with a previous fix:
commit 79c54b6bbf06 ("net/mlx4_en: Fix TX moderation info loss
after set_ringparam is called")
Tested: Before this patch, on a host with NIC using mlx4, run
netserver and stream TCP to the host at full utilization.
$ sar -I SUM 1
INTR intr/s
14:03:56 sum 48758.00
After rx hwtstamp is enabled:
$ sar -I SUM 1
14:10:38 sum 317771.00
We see the moderation is not working properly and issued 7x more
interrupts.
After the patch, and turned on rx hwtstamp, the rate of interrupts
is as expected:
$ sar -I SUM 1
14:52:11 sum 49332.00

No driver has any business with the internals of an interrupt
descriptor. Storing a pointer to it just to use yet another helper at the
actual usage site to retrieve the affinity mask is creative at best. Just
because C does not allow encapsulation does not mean that the kernel has no
limits.
Retrieve a pointer to the affinity mask itself and use that. It's still
using an interface which is usually not for random drivers, but definitely
less hideous than the previous hack.

After the previous patch, all the callers of ndo_select_queue()
provide as a 'fallback' argument netdev_pick_tx.
The only exceptions are nested calls to ndo_select_queue(),
which pass down the 'fallback' available in the current scope
- still netdev_pick_tx.
We can drop such argument and replace fallback() invocation with
netdev_pick_tx(). This avoids an indirect call per xmit packet
in some scenarios (TCP syn, UDP unconnected, XDP generic, pktgen)
with device drivers implementing such ndo. It also clean the code
a bit.

Currently the number of TX queues that are allocated doesn't depend
on the number of TCs, the module always loads with max num of UP
per channel.
In order to prevent the allocation of unnecessary memory, the
module will load with minimum number of UPs per channel, and the
user will be able to control the number of TX queues per channel
by changing the number of TC to 8 using the tc command.
The variable num_up will hold the information about the current
number of UPs.
Due to the change, needed to remove the lines that set the value of
UP to be different than zero in the func "mlx4_en_select_queue",
since now the num of TX queues that are allocated is only one per channel
in default.
In order not to force the UP to be zero in case of only one TC, added
a condition before forcing it in the func "mlx4_en_fill_qp_context".
Tested:
After the module is loaded with minimum number of UP per channel, to
increase num of TCs to 8, use:
tc qdisc add dev ens8 root mqprio num_tc 8
In order to decrease the number of TCs to minimum number of UP per channel,
use:
tc qdisc del dev ens8 root

Until this patch, the number of UPs was hard coded for eight.
Replace this with a variable in struct "mlx4_en_port_profile".
Currently, the variable will hold the maximum number of UP,
as before.
The patch creates an infrastructure to add an option for dynamic
change of the actual number of TCs.

Define LOG_TXBB_SIZE, log of TXBB_SIZE, and use it with a shift
operation instead of a multiplication with TXBB_SIZE.
Operations are equivalent as TXBB_SIZE is a power of two.
Performance tests:
Tested on ConnectX3Pro, Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2680 v3 @ 2.50GHz
Gain is too small to be measurable, no degradation sensed.
Results are similar for IPv4 and IPv6.

Increase the default TX ring size (from 512 to 1024) to match
the RX ring size.
This gives the XDP TX ring a better chance to keep up with the
rate of its RX ring in case of a high load of XDP_TX actions.
Tested:
Ethtool counter rx_xdp_tx_full used to increase, after applying this
patch it stopped.

Instead of having their own NAPIs, XDP TX completion queues get
polled within the corresponding RX NAPI.
This prevents any possible race on TX ring prod/cons indices,
between the context that issues the transmits (RX NAPI) and the
context that handles the completions (was previously done in
a separate NAPI).
This also improves performance, as it decreases the number
of NAPIs running on a CPU, saving the overhead of syncing
and switching between the contexts.

Several performance improvements in XDP TX datapath,
including:
- Ring a single doorbell for XDP TX ring per NAPI budget,
instead of doing it per a lower threshold (was 8).
This includes removing the flow of immediate doorbell ringing
in case of a full TX ring.
- Compiler branch predictor hints.
- Calculate values in compile time rather than in runtime.

Avoid touching RX QP RSS context when loading with only
one RX ring, to allow optimized A0 RX steering.
Enable by:
- loading mlx4_core with module param: log_num_mgm_entry_size = -6.
- then: ethtool -L <interface> rx 1

Same technique than some Intel drivers, for arches where PAGE_SIZE = 4096
In most cases, pages are reused because they were consumed
before we could loop around the RX ring.
This brings back performance, and is even better,
a single TCP flow reaches 30Gbit on my hosts.
v2: added full memset() in mlx4_en_free_frag(), as Tariq found it was needed
if we switch to large MTU, as priv->log_rx_info can dynamically be changed.

Use of order-3 pages is problematic in some cases.
This patch might add three kinds of regression :
1) a CPU performance regression, but we will add later page
recycling and performance should be back.
2) TCP receiver could grow its receive window slightly slower,
because skb->len/skb->truesize ratio will decrease.
This is mostly ok, we prefer being conservative to not risk OOM,
and eventually tune TCP better in the future.
This is consistent with other drivers using 2048 per ethernet frame.
3) Because we allocate one page per RX slot, we consume more
memory for the ring buffers. XDP already had this constraint anyway.

We will soon use order-0 pages, and frag truesize will more precisely
match real sizes.
In the new model, we prefer to use <= 2048 bytes fragments, so that
we can use page-recycle technique on PAGE_SIZE=4096 arches.
We will still pack as much frames as possible on arches with big
pages, like PowerPC.
