This patch enables the PPS system in the PHC framework, by enabling
the clock-out feature on the X540 device. Causes the SDP0 to be set as
a 1Hz clock. Also configures the timesync interrupt cause in order to
report each pulse to the PPS via the PHC framework, which can be used
for general system clock synchronization. (This allows a stable method
for tuning the general system time via the on-board SYSTIM register
based clock.)

This patch enables hardware timestamping for use with PTP software by
extracting a ns counter from an arbitrary fixed point cycles counter.
The hardware generates SYSTIME registers using the DMA tick which
changes based on the current link speed. These SYSTIME registers are
converted to ns using the cyclecounter and timecounter structures
provided by the kernel. Using the SO_TIMESTAMPING api, software can
enable and access timestamps for PTP packets.
The SO_TIMESTAMPING API has space for 3 different kinds of timestamps,
SYS, RAW, and SOF. SYS hardware timestamps are hardware ns values that
are then scaled to the software clock. RAW hardware timestamps are the
direct raw value of the ns counter. SOF software timestamps are the
software timestamp calculated as close as possible to the software
transmit, but are not offloaded to the hardware. This patch only
supports the RAW hardware timestamps due to inefficiency of the SYS
design.
This patch also enables the PHC subsystem features for atomically
adjusting the cycle register, and adjusting the clock frequency in
parts per billion. This frequency adjustment works by slightly
adjusting the value added to the cycle registers each DMA tick. This
causes the hardware registers to overflow rapidly (approximately once
every 34 seconds, when at 10gig link). To solve this, the timecounter
structure is used, along with a timer set for every 25 seconds. This
allows for detecting register overflow and converting the cycle
counter registers into ns values needed for providing useful
timestamps to the network stack.
Only the basic required clock functions are supported at this time,
although the hardware supports some ancillary features and these could
easily be enabled in the future.
Note that use of this hardware timestamping requires modifying daemon
software to use the SO_TIMESTAMPING API for timestamps, and the
ptp_clock PHC framework for accessing the clock. The timestamps have
no relation to the system time at all, so software must use the posix
clock generated by the PHC framework instead.

The drop enable bit can be used to improve the performance of the adapter
in the case of multiple queues being present. This performance gain is due
to the fact that some slower CPUs can cause the FIFO to backfill preventing
faster CPUs from receiving additional work. By setting the drop enable bit
we prevent this and instead just drop the packets that would have been
bound for the slower CPU.

This patch adds a somewhat generic framework for MDIO bus
multiplexers. It is modeled on the I2C multiplexer.
The multiplexer is needed if there are multiple PHYs with the same
address connected to the same MDIO bus adepter, or if there is
insufficient electrical drive capability for all the connected PHY
devices.
Conceptually it could look something like this:
------------------
| Control Signal |
--------+---------
|
--------------- --------+------
| MDIO MASTER |---| Multiplexer |
--------------- --+-------+----
| |
C C
h h
i i
l l
d d

--------- A B ---------

| PHY@1 +-------+ +---+ PHY@1 |
| | | | | |
--------- | | ---------
--------- | | ---------
| | | | | |
| PHY@2 +-------+ +---+ PHY@2 |
| | | |
--------- ---------
This framework configures the bus topology from device tree data. The
mechanics of switching the multiplexer is left to device specific
drivers.
The follow-on patch contains a multiplexer driven by GPIO lines.

multiplexers.
The of_mdiobus_register() function is modified so that the device tree
node is recorded in the mii_bus. Then we can find it again by
iterating over all mdio_bus_class devices.
Because the OF device tree has now become an integral part of the
kernel, this can live in mdio_bus.c (which contains the needed
mdio_bus_class structure) instead of of_mdio.c.

This is a bug fix for an "interface fails to load" issue.
The issue occurs when bnx2x driver loads after UNDI driver was previously
loaded over the chip. In such a scenario the UNDI driver is loaded and operates
in the pre-boot kernel, within its own specific host memory address range.
When the pre-boot stage is complete, the real kernel is loaded, in a new and
distinct host memory address range. The transition from pre-boot stage to boot
is asynchronous from UNDI point of view.
A race condition occurs when UNDI driver triggers a DMAE transaction to valid
host addresses in the pre-boot stage, when control is diverted to the real
kernel. This results in access to illegal addresses by our HW as the addresses
which were valid in the preboot stage are no longer considered valid.
Specifically, the 'was_error' bit in the pci glue of our device is set. This
causes all following pci transactions from chip to host to timeout (in
accordance to the pci spec).

when the number of real tx queues changes. When the number of real
tx queues changes netdev_tx_reset_queue() only gets called on the

triggering the watchdog timer and repeated device resets.
So this is not only a cosmetic issue but causes real bugs. For

This change reorders the mapping of rings to q_vectors in the case that the
number of rings exceeds the number of q_vectors. Previously we would
allocate the first R/N queues to the first q_vector where R is the number
of rings and N is the number of q_vectors. Instead of doing this we can do
a better job of interleaving the rings to the CPUs by assigning every Nth
ring to the q_vector.
The below tables illustrate this change for the R = 16 N = 4 case.
Before patch After patch
q_vector: 0 1 2 3 0 1 2 3
Rings: 0 4 8 12 0 1 2 3

The idea here seems to be to get a 44bit DMA mask working and if this

assigned once to 44bit and never updated. pci_set_dma_mask() and
pci_set_consistent_dma_mask() are both implemented as functions so there
is no evil macro which might update dma_mask. Looking at the assembly, I
see a call to dma_set_mask() followed by dma_supported() and then a jump
passed the second dma_set_mask(). The only way to get to second
dma_set_mask() call is by an error code in the first one.

ixgbe: driver fix for link flap
The BIT_APP_UPCHG bit is no longer set when ixgbe_dcbnl_set_all() is

We resolve this regression by fixing ixgbe_copy_dcb_cfg() to also
