The mvneta controller can handle speeds up to 2500Mbps on the SGMII
interface. This relies on serdes configuration, the lane must be
configured at 3.125Gbps and we can't use in-band autoneg at that speed.
The main issue when supporting that speed on this particular controller
is that the link partner can send ethernet frames with a shortened
preamble, which if not explicitly enabled in the controller will cause
unexpected behaviours.
This was tested on Armada 385, with the comphy configuration done in
bootloader.

net: bridge: convert bool options to bits
A lot of boolean bridge options have been added around the net_bridge
structure resulting in holes and more importantly different cache lines
that need to be fetched in the fast path. This set moves all of those
to bits in a bitfield which resides in a hot cache line thus reducing
the size of net_bridge, the number of holes and the number of cache
lines needed for the fast path.
The set is also sent in preparation for new boolean options to avoid
spreading them in the structure and making new holes.
One nice side-effect is that we avoid potential race conditions by using
the bitops since some of the options were bits being directly set in
parallel risking hard to debug issues (has_ipv6_addr).

The following pull-request contains BPF updates for your *net-next* tree.
The main changes are:
1) Allow for RX stack hardening by implementing the kernel's flow
dissector in BPF. Idea was originally presented at netconf 2017 [0].
Quote from merge commit:
[...] Because of the rigorous checks of the BPF verifier, this
provides significant security guarantees. In particular, the BPF
flow dissector cannot get inside of an infinite loop, as with
CVE-2013-4348, because BPF programs are guaranteed to terminate.
It cannot read outside of packet bounds, because all memory accesses
are checked. Also, with BPF the administrator can decide which
protocols to support, reducing potential attack surface. Rarely
encountered protocols can be excluded from dissection and the
program can be updated without kernel recompile or reboot if a
bug is discovered. [...]
Also, a sample flow dissector has been implemented in BPF as part
of this work, from Petar and Willem.

points of BPF networking programs providing a quick overview
similar to bpftool's perf subcommand, from Yonghong.
3) Fix a verifier pruning instability bug where a union member
from the register state was not cleared properly leading to
branches not being pruned despite them being valid candidates,
from Alexei.

The BMCR.RESET bit on the Marvell PHYs has a special meaning in that
it commits the register writes into the HW for it to latch and be
configured appropriately. Doing software resets causes link drops, and
this is unnecessary disruption if nothing changed.
Determine from marvell_set_polarity()'s return code whether the register value
was changed and if it was, propagate that to the logic that hits the software
reset bit.
This avoids doing unnecessary soft reset if the PHY is configured in
the same state it was previously, this also eliminates the need for a
m88e1111_config_aneg() function since it now is the same as
marvell_config_aneg().

Björn addresses an AF_XDP zero-copy issue that buffers passed
from userspace to the kernel was leaked when the hardware descriptor
ring was torn down. A zero-copy capable driver picks buffers off the
fill ring and places them on the hardware receive ring to be completed at
a later point when DMA is complete. Similar on the transmit side; The
driver picks buffers off the transmit ring and places them on the
transmit hardware ring.
In the typical flow, the receive buffer will be placed onto an receive
ring (completed to the user), and the transmit buffer will be placed on
the completion ring to notify the user that the transfer is done.
However, if the driver needs to tear down the hardware rings for some
reason (interface goes down, reconfiguration and such), the userspace
buffers cannot be leaked. They have to be reused or completed back to
userspace.

Refactor classifier API to work with Qdisc/blocks without rtnl lock
Currently, all netlink protocol handlers for updating rules, actions and
qdiscs are protected with single global rtnl lock which removes any
possibility for parallelism. This patch set is a third step to remove
rtnl lock dependency from TC rules update path.
Recently, new rtnl registration flag RTNL_FLAG_DOIT_UNLOCKED was added.
Handlers registered with this flag are called without RTNL taken. End
goal is to have rule update handlers(RTM_NEWTFILTER, RTM_DELTFILTER,
etc.) to be registered with UNLOCKED flag to allow parallel execution.
However, there is no intention to completely remove or split rtnl lock
itself. This patch set addresses specific problems in implementation of
classifiers API that prevent its control path from being executed
concurrently. Additional changes are required to refactor classifiers
API and individual classifiers for parallel execution. This patch set
lays groundwork to eventually register rule update handlers as
rtnl-unlocked by modifying code in cls API that works with Qdiscs and
blocks. Following patch set does the same for chains and classifiers.
The goal of this change is to refactor tcf_block_find() and its
dependencies to allow concurrent execution:
- Extend Qdisc API with rcu to lookup and take reference to Qdisc
without relying on rtnl lock.
- Extend tcf_block with atomic reference counting and rcu.
- Always take reference to tcf_block while working with it.
- Implement tcf_block_release() to release resources obtained by
tcf_block_find()
- Create infrastructure to allow registering Qdiscs with class ops that
do not require the caller to hold rtnl lock.
All three netlink rule update handlers use tcf_block_find() to lookup
Qdisc and block, and this patch set introduces additional means of
synchronization to substitute rtnl lock in cls API.
Some functions in cls and sch APIs have historic names that no longer
clearly describe their intent. In order not make this code even more
confusing when introducing their concurrency-friendly versions, rename
these functions to describe actual implementation.
Changes from V2 to V3:
- Patch 1:
- Explicitly include refcount.h in rtnetlink.h.
- Patch 3:
- Move rcu_head field to the end of struct Qdisc.
- Rearrange local variable declarations in qdisc_lookup_rcu().
- Patch 5:
- Remove tcf_qdisc_put() and inline its content to callers.
Changes from V1 to V2:
- Rebase on latest net-next.
- Patch 8 - remove.
- Patch 9 - fold into patch 11.
- Patch 11:
- Rename tcf_block_{get|put}() to tcf_block_refcnt_{get|put}().
- Patch 13 - remove.
