Allocate memory for mcast/bcast/mirror replication entry
contexts, replication buffers (used by HW) and config HW
with corresponding memory bases. Added support for installing
MCEs via NIX AQ mbox.
For now support is restricted to broadcast pkt replication,
hence MCE table size and number of replication buffers
allocated are less. Each CGX LMAC mapped RVU PF is assigned
a MCE table of size 'num VFs of that PF + PF'.

For each CGX LMAC that is mapped to a RVU PF, allocate
a pkind and config the same in CGX. For a received packet
at CGX LMAC interface this pkind is used by NPC block
to start parsing of packet.

This patch configures all 16 KPUs and iKPU (pkinds) with
the KPU parser profile defined in npc_profile.h. Each KPU
engine has a 128 entry CAM, only CAM entries which are listed
in the profile are enabled and rest are left disabled.
Also
- Memory is allocated for pkind's bitmap and PFFUNC, interface
channel mapping.
- Added all CSR offsets of NPC HW block.

NPC block is responsible for parsing and forwarding
packets to different NIXLFs. NPC has 16 KPU engines
(Kangaroo parse engine) and one iKPU which represents
pkinds. Each physical port either CGX/LBK is assigned
a pkind and upon receiving a packet HW takes that port's
pkind and starts parsing as per the KPU engines config.
This patch adds header files which contain configuration
profile/array for each of the iKPU and 16 KPU engines.

This patch adds support for a PF/VF driver to configure
NIX transmit scheduler queues via mbox. Since PF/VF doesn't
know the absolute HW index of the NIXLF attached to it, AF
traps the register config and overwrites with the correct
NIXLF index.
HW supports shaping, colouring and policing of packets with
these multilevel traffic scheduler queues. Instead of
introducing different mbox message formats for different
configurations and making both AF & PF/VF driver implementation
cumbersome, access to the scheduler queue's CSRs is provided
via mbox. AF checks whether the sender PF/VF has the
corresponding queue allocated or not and dumps the config
to HW. With a single mbox msg 20 registers can be configured.

Added support for a PF/VF to allocate or free NIX transmit
scheduler queues via mbox. For setting up pkt transmission
priorities between queues, the scheduler queues have to be
contiguous w.r.t their HW indices. So both contiguous and
non-contiguous allocations are supported.
Upon receiving NIX_TXSCH_FREE mbox msg all scheduler queues
allocated to sending PFFUNC (PF/VF) will be freed. Selective
free is not supported.

Added functions to query and set link FEC policy.
To get/set FEC capabilities in PPLM reg we need to query
current link speed.
'mlx5_get_fec_speed_field' queries current link speed and returns
correct field offset.
FEC Query's return value is divided into 'active FEC policy', which is
the FEC policy used by the link, and 'configured FEC policy', which
is the FEC policy requested by the user.
The two values may differ if:
1) FEC policy was configured to 'auto',
in which case the active FEC policy would be the default FEC policy
for current link speed.
2) FEC policy was changed, but no link reset is performed. In which case,
the active FEC policy would become the configured one after a link
reset.
FEC set function sets FEC policy for all link speeds and perform link
reset.
1) If current link speed doesn't support requested FEC policy,
the function fails.
2) If a different link speed doesn't support requested FEC policy,
FEC capbilities for this speed are turned off and a warning message
is printed.

Fs_counters list can temporary become unsorted when new counters are
created/deleted concurrently. Idr is used to quickly lookup position to
insert new counter in logarithmic time. However, if new flows are
concurrently inserted during time window when flows with adjacent ids are
already removed from idr but are still present in counters list,
mlx5_fc_stats_work() observes counters list in inconsistent state, which

In fs_counters elements from both addlist and dellist are removed by
mlx5_fc_stats_work() without any locking. This introduces race condition
when batch of new rules is created and then immediately deleted (for
example, when error occurred during flow creation). In such case some of
the rules might be in dellist, but not in addlist when mlx5_fc_stats_work()
is executed concurrently with tc, which will result rule deletion and
use-after-free on next iteration because deleted rules are still in
addlist.
Always take dellist first to guarantee that rules can only be deleted after
they were removed from addlist.

Take struct mlx5_frag_buf out of mlx5_frag_buf_ctrl, as it is not
needed to manage and control the datapath of the fragmented buffers API.
struct mlx5_frag_buf contains control info to manage the allocation
and de-allocation of the fragmented buffer.
Its fields are not relevant for datapath, so here I take them out of the
struct mlx5_frag_buf_ctrl, except for the fragments array itself.
In addition, modified mlx5_fill_fbc to initialise the frags pointers
as well. This implies that the buffer must be allocated before the
function is called.

rtl_rx() and rtl_tx() are called only if the respective bits are set
in the interrupt status register. Under high load NAPI may not be
able to process all data (work_done == budget) and it will schedule
subsequent calls to the poll callback.
rtl_ack_events() however resets the bits in the interrupt status
register, therefore subsequent calls to rtl8169_poll() won't call
rtl_rx() and rtl_tx() - chip interrupts are still disabled.
Fix this by calling rtl_rx() and rtl_tx() independent of the bits
set in the interrupt status register. Both functions will detect
if there's nothing to do for them.

1GbE Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2018-10-17
This series adds support for the new igc driver.
The igc driver is the new client driver supporting the Intel I225
Ethernet Controller, which supports 2.5GbE speeds. The reason for
creating a new client driver, instead of adding support for the new
device in e1000e, is that the silicon behaves more like devices
supported in igb driver. It also did not make sense to add a client
part, to the igb driver which supports only 1GbE server parts.
This initial set of patches is designed for basic support (i.e. link and
pass traffic). Follow-on patch series will add more advanced support
like VLAN, Wake-on-LAN, etc..

mlx5-updates-2018-10-17
========================================================================
From Or Gerlitz <ogerlitz@mellanox.com>:
This series from Paul adds support to mlx5 e-switch tc offloading of multiple priorities and chains.
This is made of four building blocks (along with few minor driver refactors):
[1] Split FDB fast path prio to multiple namespaces
Currently the FDB name-space contains two priorities, fast path (p0) and slow path (p1).
The slow path contains the per representor SQ send-to-vport TX rule and the match-all
RX miss rule. As a pre-step to support multi-chains and priorities, we split the FDB fast path
to multiple namespaces (sub namespaces), each with multiple priorities.
[2] E-Switch chains and priorities
A chain is a group of priorities. We use the fdb parallel sub-namespaces to implement chains,
and a flow table for each priority in them.
Because these namespaces are parallel and in series to the slow path
fdb, the chains aren't connected to each other (but to the slow path),
and one must use a explicit goto action to reach a different chain.
Flow tables for the priorities are created on demand and destroyed
once not used.
[3] Add a no-append flow insertion mode, use it for TC offloads
Enhance the driver fs core, such that if a no-append flag is set by the caller,
we add a new FTE, instead of appending the actions of the inserted rule when
the same match already exists.
For encap rules, we defer the HW offloading till we have a valid neighbor. This can
result in the packet hitting a lower priority rule in the HW DP. Use the no-append API
to push these packets to the slow path FDB table, so they go to the TC kernel DP as done
before priorities where supported.
[4] Offloading tc priorities and chains for eswitch flows
Using [1], [2] and [3] above we add the support for offloading both chains
and priorities. To get to a new chain, use the tc goto action. We support
a fixed prio range 1-16, and chains 0-3.
