mlx5-update-2018-02-23 (IB representors)

From: Mark Bloch <markb@mellanox.com>
=========
Add IB representor when in switchdev mode

The following series adds support for an IB (RAW Ethernet only) device
representor which is created when the user switches to switchdev mode.

Today when switching to switchdev mode the only representors which are
created are net devices. Each netdev is a representor of a virtual
function and any data sent via the representor is received on the virtual
function, and any data sent via the virtual function is received by the
representor.

For the mlx5 driver the main use of this functionality is to be able to
use Open vSwitch on the hypervisor in order to manage/control traffic
from/to the virtual functions. Open vSwitch can also work with  DPDK
devices and not just net devices, this series exposes an IB device, which
Mellanox PMD driver uses, which then can be used by Open vSwitch DPDK.

An IB device representor exposes only RAW Ethernet QP capabilities and
the ability to create flow rules to direct traffic to its RX queues. The
state of the IB device (ACTIVE/DOWN etc..) is based on the state of the
corresponding net device representor. No other RDMA/RoCE functionality is
currently supported and no GID table is exposed.

====================
mlx4_en misc for 4.17

This patchset contains misc enhancements from the team
to the mlx4 Eth driver.

Patch 1 by Eran adds physical layer counters.
Patch 2 by Eran cleans-up a redundant warn print.
Patch 3 combines the checks of two end cases into a single if statement.
Patch 4 takes common code structures out of the #ifdef, following your
comment on a previous patch.

      net/mlx4_en: RX csum, pre-define enabled protocols for IP status masking · a970d8db
      Tariq Toukan authored 
      

Pre-define a mask for IP status of a completion, that tests the
MLX4_CQE_STATUS_IPV6 only in case CONFIG_IPV6 is enabled.
Use it for IP status testing upon completion, instead of separating
the datapath into two flows.
This takes common code structures (such as closing parenthesis)
back to their original place, and makes code more readable.

      net/mlx4_en: Remove unnecessary warn print in reset config · 4f32e1c4
      Eran Ben Elisha authored 
      

In mlx4_en_reset_config, there was a redundant warn print that was left
from previous versions of this function. No warn is needed anymore.

This warn can be confusing when RX-FCS is changed:
Turn OFF RX-FCS:
  mlx4_en: eth1: Changing device configuration rx filter(0) rx vlan(1)
Turn ON RX-FCS:
  mlx4_en: eth1: Changing device configuration rx filter(0) rx vlan(1)

====================
mlxsw: Offloading encapsulated SPAN

Petr says:

This patch series introduces support for mirroring with GRE
encapsulation. It offloads tc action mirred mirror from a mlxsw port to
either a gretap or an ip6gretap netdevice.

Spectrum hardware needs to know all the details of the requested
encapsulation: source and destination MAC and IP addresses, details of
VLAN tagging, etc. The only variables are the encapsulated packet
itself, and TOS field, which may be inherited. To that end, mlxsw driver
resolves the route that encapsulated packets would take, queries the
corresponding neighbor, and with that configuration in hand, configures
the mirroring in the hardware.

The driver also hooks into event handlers for netdevice changes, FIB and
neighbor events, and reconsiders the configuration on each such change.
When the new configuration differs from the currently-offloaded one, the
existing offload is removed and replaced with a new one.

It is possible to mirror to {ip6,}gretap from a matchall rule as well as
from a flower match.

** Note that with this patch set, mlxsw build depends on NET_IPGRE and
   IPV6_GRE.

Current limitations:

- There has to be a route that directs packets to an mlxsw port. We
  intend to extend the logic to support other netdevice types in the
  future, but the eventual egress netdevice will have to be an mlxsw
  port in any case.

- Offload reconfiguration due to changes in netdevice configuration
  creates a window of time where packets are not mirrored. Under some
  circumstances this can be prevented by configuring an unused port
  analyzer and migrating mirrors over to that. However that's currently
  not implemented.

- Remote address of a tunnel device needs to be set, there may not be a
  GRE key, checksumming or sequence numbers, and TTL needs to be fixed
  (non-inherit). These are hard requirements imposed by the underlying
  hardware.

- TOS of a tunnel device needs to be "inherit". The hardware supports a
  fixed TOS, but that's currently not implemented.

The series start with two patches, #1 and #2, that publish one function
and add support for querying IPv6 tunnel parameters.

In patches #3 and #4, we introduce helpers to GRE and tunneling code
that we will use later in the patchset from the SPAN code.

Patches #5 and #6 introduce support for encapsulated SPAN in reg.h.

The following seven patches, #7-#13, then prepare the SPAN codebase for
introduction of mirroring to netdevices that don't correspond to front
panel ports.

Then #14 and #15 pull all this together to implement mirroring to
{ip6,}gretap netdevices.

      mlxsw: spectrum_span: Support mirror to gretap · 27cf76fe
      Petr Machata authored 
      

When a user requests mirror from a mlxsw physical port (possibly based
on an ACL match) to a gretap netdevice, the driver needs to resolve the
request to a particular physical port that the mirrored packets will
egress through, and a suite of configuration keys (importantly, IP and
MAC addresses). That means calling into routing and neighbor kernel code
to simulate the decisions made by the system for packets passing through
a gretap netdevice.

Add a new instance of mlxsw_sp_span_entry_ops to support this.

      mlxsw: Move a mirroring check to mlxsw_sp_span_entry_create · 52a6444c
      Petr Machata authored 
      

The check for whether a mirror port (which is a mlxsw front panel port)
belongs to the same mlxsw instance as the mirrored port, is currently
only done in spectrum_acl, even though it's applicable for the matchall
case as well. Thus move it to mlxsw_sp_span_entry_create().
