The low level driver adds its own opaque information
in the BSS table in the cfg80211_bss structure.
The low level driver may need to signal that this information
is no longer relevant and needs to be recreated.
Add an API to allow the low level driver to do that.
iwlwifi needs this because it keeps there an information about
the firmware's internal clock. This is kept in mac80211's
struct ieee80211_bss::sync_device_ts.
This information is populated while we scan, we add the
internal firmware's clock to each beacon which allows us to
program the firmware correctly after association so that
it'll know when (in terms of its internal clock) the DTIM
and TBTT will happen.
When the firmware is reset this internal clock is reset as
well and ieee80211_bss::sync_device_ts is no longer accurate.
iwlwifi will call this new API any time the firmware is started.

nl80211 vendor netlink dumpit, like netlink_callback->dump, should
signal successful completion by returning 0.
Currently, that will just cause dumpit to be called again, possibly
many times until an error occurs. Since skb->len is never going to be
0 by the time dumpit is called, the only way for dumpit to signal
completion is by returning an error. If it returns a positive value,
the current message is cancelled, but that positive value is returned
and nl80211_vendor_cmd_dump gets called again.
Fix that by passing a return value of 0 through.

This is a port of i40e commit 705639572e ("i40e: need_wakeup flag might
not be set for Tx").
Quoting the original commit message:
"The need_wakeup flag for Tx might not be set for AF_XDP sockets that
are only used to send packets. This happens if there is at least one
outstanding packet that has not been completed by the hardware and we
get that corresponding completion (which will not generate an interrupt
since interrupts are disabled in the napi poll loop) between the time we
stopped processing the Tx completions and interrupts are enabled again.
In this case, the need_wakeup flag will have been cleared at the end of
the Tx completion processing as we believe we will get an interrupt from
the outstanding completion at a later point in time. But if this
completion interrupt occurs before interrupts are enable, we lose it and
should at that point really have set the need_wakeup flag since there
are no more outstanding completions that can generate an interrupt to
continue the processing. When this happens, user space will see a Tx
queue need_wakeup of 0 and skip issuing a syscall, which means will
never get into the Tx processing again and we have a deadlock."
As a result, packet processing stops. This patch introduces a fix for
this issue, by always setting the need_wakeup flag at the end of an
interrupt processing. This ensures that the deadlock will not happen.

Distribute the Tx queues evenly across all queue groups. This will
help the queues to get more equal sharing among the queues when all
are in use.
In the previous algorithm, the next queue group node will be picked up
only after the previous one filled with max children.
For example: if VSI is configured with 9 queues, the first 8 queues
will be assigned to queue group 1 and the 9th queue will be assigned to
queue group 2.
The 2 queue groups split the bandwidth between them equally (50:50).
The first queue group node will share the 50% bandwidth with all of
its children (8 queues). And the second queue group node will share
the entire 50% bandwidth with its only children.
The new algorithm will fix this issue.

assigned to a VM because in these cases the VF driver receives no
indication of the PF PCI error/reset and additionally it is incapable
of restoring the cleared flag in the hypervisor configuration space

the port information has already been updated to be seen as UP,
even though none of the UP activities have been completed.

of the link has been changed to UP, treat the DOWN event

After a GLOBR, the link was broken so that a link
up situation was being seen as a link down.
The problem was that the rebuild process was updating
the port_info link status without doing any of the
other things that need to be done when link changes.
This was causing the port_info struct to have current
"UP" information so that any further UP interrupts
were skipped as redundant.

it to the link event handling code.

====================
introduce PLDM firmware update library
This series goal is to enable support for updating the ice hardware flash
using the devlink flash command.
The ice firmware update files are distributed using the file format
described by the "PLDM for Firmware Update" standard:
https://www.dmtf.org/documents/pmci/pldm-firmware-update-specification-100
Because this file format is standard, this series introduces a new library
that handles the generic logic for parsing the PLDM file header. The library
uses a design that is very similar to the Mellanox mlxfw module. That is, a
simple ops table is setup and device drivers instantiate an instance of the
pldmfw library with the device specific operations.
Doing so allows for each device to implement the low level behavior for how
to interact with its firmware.
This series includes the library and an implementation for the ice hardware.
I've removed all of the parameters, and the proposed changes to support
overwrite mode. I'll be working on the overwrite mask suggestion from Jakub
as a follow-up series.
Because the PLDM file format is a standard and not something that is
specific to the Intel hardware, I opted to place this update library in
lib/pldmfw. I should note that while I tried to make the library generic, it
does not attempt to mimic the complete "Update Agent" as defined in the
standard. This is mostly due to the fact that the actual interfaces exposed
to software for the ice hardware would not allow this.
This series depends on some work just recently and is based on top of the
patch series sent by Tony published at:
https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20200723234720.1547308-1-anthony.l.nguyen@intel.com/T/#t
Changes since v2 RFC
* Removed overwrite mode patches, as this can become a follow up series with
a separate discussion
* Fixed a minor bug in the pldm_timestamp structure not being packed.
* Dropped Cc for other driver maintainers, as this series no longer includes
changes to the core flash update command.
* Re-ordered patches slightly.
Changes since v1 RFC
* Removed the "allow_downgrade_on_flash_update" parameter. Instead, the
driver will always attempt to flash the device, even when firmware
indicates that it would be a downgrade. A dev_warn is used to indicate
when this occurs.
* Removed the "ignore_pending_flash_update". Instead, the driver will always
check for and cancel any previous pending update. A devlink flash status
message will be sent when this cancellation occurs.
* Removed the "reset_after_flash_update" parameter. This will instead be
implemented as part of a devlink reset interface, work left for a future
change.
* Replaced the "flash_update_preservation_level" parameter with a new
"overwrite" mode attribute on the flash update command. For ice, this mode
will select the preservation level. For all other drivers, I modified them
to check that the mode is "OVERWRITE_NOTHING", and have Cc'd the
maintainers to get their input.

Use the newly added pldmfw library to implement device flash update for
the Intel ice networking device driver. This support uses the devlink
flash update interface.
The main parts of the flash include the Option ROM, the netlist module,
and the main NVM data. The PLDM firmware file contains modules for each
of these components.
Using the pldmfw library, the provided firmware file will be scanned for
the three major components, "fw.undi" for the Option ROM, "fw.mgmt" for
the main NVM module containing the primary device firmware, and
"fw.netlist" containing the netlist module.
The flash is separated into two banks, the active bank containing the
running firmware, and the inactive bank which we use for update. Each
module is updated in a staged process. First, the inactive bank is
erased, preparing the device for update. Second, the contents of the
component are copied to the inactive portion of the flash. After all
components are updated, the driver signals the device to switch the
active bank during the next EMP reset (which would usually occur during
the next reboot).
Although the firmware AdminQ interface does report an immediate status
for each command, the NVM erase and NVM write commands receive status
asynchronously. The driver must not continue writing until previous
erase and write commands have finished. The real status of the NVM
commands is returned over the receive AdminQ. Implement a simple
interface that uses a wait queue so that the main update thread can
sleep until the completion status is reported by firmware. For erasing
the inactive banks, this can take quite a while in practice.
To help visualize the process to the devlink application and other
applications based on the devlink netlink interface, status is reported
via the devlink_flash_update_status_notify. While we do report status
after each 4k block when writing, there is no real status we can report
during erasing. We simply must wait for the complete module erasure to
finish.
With this implementation, basic flash update for the ice hardware is
supported.

The pldmfw library is used to implement common logic needed to flash
devices based on firmware files using the format described by the PLDM
for Firmware Update standard.
This library consists of logic to parse the PLDM file format from
a firmware file object, as well as common logic for sending the relevant
PLDM header data to the device firmware.
A simple ops table is provided so that device drivers can implement
device specific hardware interactions while keeping the common logic to
the pldmfw library.
This library will be used by the Intel ice networking driver as part of
implementing device flash update via devlink. The library aims to be
vendor and device agnostic. For this reason, it has been placed in
lib/pldmfw, in the hopes that other devices which use the PLDM firmware
file format may benefit from it in the future. However, do note that not
all features defined in the PLDM standard have been implemented.
