When choosing channel amounts and ring sizes, the maximums in the
ibmvnic driver are defined by the virtual i/o server management
partition. Even though they are defined as maximums, the client
driver may in fact successfully request resources that exceed
these limits, which are mostly dependent on a user's hardware
With this in mind, provide an ethtool flag that when enabled will
allow the user to request resources limited by driver-defined
maximums instead of limits defined by the management partition.
The driver will try to honor the user's request but may not allowed
by the management partition. In this case, the driver requests
as close as it can get to the desired amount until it succeeds.

Testing has uncovered a failure case that is not handled properly. In the
event that a login fails and we are not able to recover on the spot, we
return 0 from do_reset, preventing any error recovery code from being
triggered. Additionally, the state is set to "probed" meaning that when we
are able to trigger the error recovery, the driver always comes up in the
probed state. To handle the case properly, we need to return a failure code
here and set the adapter state to the state that we entered the reset in
indicating the state that we would like to come out of the recovery reset
in.

During a device failover, there may be latency between the loss
of the current backing device and a notification from firmware that
a failover has occurred. This latency can result in a large amount of
error printouts as firmware returns outgoing traffic with a generic
error code. These are not necessarily errors in this case as the
firmware is busy swapping in a new backing adapter and is not ready
to send packets yet. This patch reclassifies those error codes as
warnings with an explanation that a failover may be pending. All
other return codes will be considered errors.

In its current state, the driver will handle backing device
login in a loop for a certain number of retries while the
device returns a partial success, indicating that the driver
may need to try again using a smaller number of resources.
The variable it checks to continue retrying may change
over the course of operations, resulting in reallocation
of resources but exits without sending the login attempt.
Guard against this by introducing a boolean variable that

Introduce a recovery hard reset to handle reset failure as a result of
change of device context following a transport event, such as a
backing device failover or partition migration. These operations reset
the device context to its initial state. If this occurs during a reset,
any initialization commands are likely to fail with an invalid state

When this happens, make one more attempt by performing a hard reset,
which frees any resources currently allocated and performs device
initialization. If a transport event occurs during a device reset, a
flag is set which will trigger a new hard reset following the
completionof the current reset event.

Introduce an "active" state for a IBM vNIC Command-Response Queue. A CRQ
is considered active once it has initialized or linked with its partner by
sending an initialization request and getting a successful response back
from the management partition. Until this has happened, do not allow CRQ
commands to be sent other than the initialization request.
This change will avoid a protocol error in case of a device transport
event occurring during a initialization. When the driver receives a
transport event notification indicating that the backing hardware
has changed and needs reinitialization, any further commands other
than the initialization handshake with the VIOS management partition
will result in an invalid state error. Instead of sending a command
that will be returned with an error, print a warning and return an

Due to a firmware bug, the hypervisor can send an interrupt to a
transmit or receive queue just prior to a partition migration, not
allowing the device enough time to handle it and send an EOI. When
the partition migrates, the interrupt is lost but an "EOI-pending"
flag for the interrupt line is still set in firmware. No further
interrupts will be sent until that flag is cleared, effectively
freezing that queue. To workaround this, the driver will disable the
hardware interrupt and send an H_EOI signal prior to re-enabling it.
This will flush the pending EOI and allow the driver to continue
operation.

There is a bug in handling the possible return codes from sending the
login CRQ. The current code treats any non-success return value,
minus failure to send the crq and a timeout waiting for a login response,
as a need to re-send the login CRQ. This can put the drive in an
infinite loop of trying to login when getting return values other
that a partial success such as a return code of aborted. For these
scenarios the login will not ever succeed at this point and the
driver would need to be reset again.
To resolve this loop trying to login is updated to only retry the
login if the driver gets a return code of a partial success. Other
return codes are treated as an error and the driver returns an error
from ibmvnic_login().
To avoid infinite looping in the partial success return cases, the
number of retries is capped at the maximum number of supported
queues. This value was chosen because the driver does a renegotiation
of capabilities which sets the number of queues possible and allows
the driver to attempt a login for possible value for the number
of queues supported.

When resetting the ibmvnic driver after a partition migration occurs
there is no requirement to do a reset of the main CRQ. The current
driver code does the required re-enable of the main CRQ, then does
a reset of the main CRQ later.
What we should be doing for a driver reset after a migration is to
re-enable the main CRQ, release all the sub-CRQs, and then allocate
new sub-CRQs after capability negotiation.
This patch updates the handling of mobility resets to do the proper
work and not reset the main CRQ. To do this the initialization/reset
of the main CRQ had to be moved out of the ibmvnic_init routine
and in to the ibmvnic_probe and do_reset routines.

There is a failover case for a non-redundant pseries VNIC
configuration that was not being handled properly. The current
implementation assumes that the driver will always have a redandant
device to communicate with following a failover notification. There
are cases, however, when a non-redundant configuration can receive
a failover request. If that happens, the driver should wait until
it receives a signal that the device is ready for operation.
The driver is agnostic of its backing hardware configuration,
so this fix necessarily affects all device failover management.
The driver needs to wait until it receives a signal that the device
is ready for resetting. A flag is introduced to track this intermediary
state where the driver is waiting for an active device.
