d07a147f00 netdev: Move octeon/octeon_mgmt driver to cavium directory.
No code changes.  Since OCTEON is a Cavium product, move the driver to
the vendor directory to unclutter things a bit.

b7d3e3d3d2 net: thunderx: Don't leak phy device references on -EPROBE_DEFER condition.
It is possible, although unlikely, that probing will find the
phy_device for the first LMAC of a thunder BGX device, but then need
to fail with -EPROBE_DEFER on a subsequent LMAC.  In this case, we
need to call put_device() on each of the phy_devices that were
obtained, but will be unused due to returning -EPROBE_DEFER.

Also, since we can break out of the probing loop early, we need to
explicitly call of_node_put() outside of the loop.

5fc7cf1794 net: thunderx: Cleanup PHY probing code.
Remove the call to force the octeon-mdio driver to be loaded.  Allow
the standard driver loading mechanisms to load the PHY drivers, and
use -EPROBE_DEFER to cause the BGX driver to be probed only after the
PHY drivers are available.

Reorder the setting of MAC addresses and PHY probing to allow BGX
LMACs with no attached PHY to still be assigned a MAC address.

Adjusted nicvf structure such that all elements used in hot
path like napi, xmit e.t.c fall into same cache line. This reduced

Also modified elements with :1 notation to boolean, to be

4c0b6eaf37 net: thunderx: Fix for Qset error due to CQ full
On Thunderx pass 1.x and pass2 due to a HW errata default CQ
DROP_LEVEL of 0x80 is not sufficient to avoid CQ_WR_FULL Qset
error when packets are being received at >20Mpps resulting in
complete stall of packet reception.

This patch will configure it to 0x100 which is what is expected
by HW on Thunderx. On future passes of thunderx and other chips
HW default/reset value will be 0x100 or higher hence not overwritten.

08a965ec93 net: cavium: liquidio: Return correct error code
The return value of vmalloc on failure of allocation of memory should
be -ENOMEM and not -1.

Found using Coccinelle. A simplified version of the semantic patch
used is:

//<smpl>
@@
expression *e;
identifier l1;
position p,q;
@@

e@q = vmalloc(...);
if@p (e == NULL) {
...
goto l1;
}
l1:
...
return -1
+ -ENOMEM
;
//</smpl

The single call site of the containing function checks whether the
returned value is -1, so this check is changed as well. The single call
site of this call site, however, only checks whether the value is not 0,
so no further change was required.

f406ce4234 net: thunderx: Correctly distinguish between VF and LMAC count
Commit bc69fdfc6c
("net: thunderx: Enable BGX LMAC's RX/TX only after VF is up")
introduces lmac_cnt member and starts verifying VF number against it.
This is plain wrong, and works only because currently we have hardcoded
1:1 mapping between VFs and LMACs, and in this case num_vf_en and
lmac_cnt are always equal. However in future this may change, and the
code will badly misbehave. The worst consequence of this is failure to
deliver link status messages, causing VFs to go defunct because since
commit 0b72a9a106 ("net: thunderx: Switchon carrier only upon
interface link up") VF will not fully bring itself up without it.

This patch fixes the potential problem by doing VF number checks against
the num_vf_en. Since lmac_cnt is not used anywhere else, it is removed.

Additionally some duplicated code is factored out into nic_enable_vf()

This patch adds support for handling multiple qsets assigned to a
single VF. There by increasing no of queues from earlier 8 to max
no of CPUs in the system i.e 48 queues on a single node and 96 on
dual node system. User doesn't have option to assign which Qsets/VFs
 to be merged. Upon request from VF, PF assigns next free Qsets as
secondary qsets. To maintain current behavior no of queues is kept
to 8 by default which can be increased via ethtool.

If user wants to unbind NICVF driver from a secondary Qset then it
should be done after tearing down primary VF's interface.

39ad6eea6c net: thunderx: Rework interrupt handling
Rework interrupt handler to avoid checking IRQ affinity of
CQ interrupts. Now separate handlers are registered for each IRQ
including RBDR. Register interrupt handlers for only those
which are being used. Add nicvf_dump_intr_status() and use it
in irq handlers.

aa2e259b47 net: thunderx: Support for HW VLAN stripping
This patch configures HW to strip 802.1Q header if found in a
receiving packet. The stripped VLAN ID and TCI information is
passed on to software via CQE_RX. Also sets netdev's 'vlan_features'
so that other HW offload features can be used for tagged packets.

This offload feature can be enabled or disabled via ethtool.

Network stack normally ignores RPS for 802.1Q packets and hence low
throughput. With this offload enabled throughput for tagged packets
will be almost same as normal packets.

Note: This patch doesn't enable HW VLAN insertion for transmit packets.

38bb5d4f4f net: thunderx: Receive hashing HW offload support
Adding support for receive hashing HW offload by using RSS_ALG
and RSS_TAG fields of CQE_RX descriptor. Also removed dependency
on minimum receive queue count to configure RSS so that hash is
always generated.

This hash is used by RPS logic to distribute flows across multiple
CPUs. Offload can be disabled via ethtool.
