We always need an RX queue, and there's no reconfig situation either
where we would need to free & rebuild the queue.
So allocate the RX queue right from the start, and avoid freeing it
during unrelated qeth_free_qdio_queues() calls.

====================
net: use eth_hw_addr_set() in arch-specific drivers
Fixups for more arch-specific drivers.
With these (and another patch which didn't fit) the build is more or
less clean with all cross-compilers available on kernel.org. I say
more or less because around half of the arches fail to build for
unrelated reasons right now.
Most of the changes here are for m68k, 32bit x86 and alpha.

Pull setattr idmapping fix from Christian Brauner:
"This contains a simple fix for setattr. When determining the validity
of the attributes the ia_{g,u}id fields contain the value that will be
written to inode->i_{g,u}id. When the {g,u}id attribute of the file
isn't altered and the caller's fs{g,u}id matches the current {g,u}id
attribute the attribute change is allowed.
The value in ia_{g,u}id does already account for idmapped mounts and
will have taken the relevant idmapping into account. So in order to
verify that the {g,u}id attribute isn't changed we simple need to
compare the ia_{g,u}id value against the inode's i_{g,u}id value.
This only has any meaning for idmapped mounts as idmapping helpers are
idempotent without them. And for idmapped mounts this really only has
a meaning when circular idmappings are used, i.e. mappings where e.g.
id 1000 is mapped to id 1001 and id 1001 is mapped to id 1000. Such
ciruclar mappings can e.g. be useful when sharing the same home
directory between multiple users at the same time.
Before this patch we could end up denying legitimate attribute changes
and allowing invalid attribute changes when circular mappings are
used. To even get into this situation the caller must've been
privileged both to create that mapping and to create that idmapped
mount.
This hasn't been seen in the wild anywhere but came up when expanding
the fstest suite during work on a series of hardening patches. All
idmapped fstests pass without any regressions and we're adding new
tests to verify the behavior of circular mappings.
The new tests can be found at [1]"

===================
lan78xx NAPI Performance Improvements
This patch set introduces a set of changes to the lan78xx driver
that were originally developed as part of an investigation into
the performance of TCP and UDP transfers on an Android system.
The changes increase the throughput of both UDP and TCP transfers
and reduce the overall CPU load.
These improvements are also seen on a standard Linux kernel. Typical
results are included at the end of this document.
The changes to the driver evolved over time. The patches presented
here attempt to organise the changes in to coherent blocks that
affect logically connected parts of the driver. The patches do not
reflect the way in which the code evolved during the performance
investigation.
Each patch produces a working driver that has an incremental
improvement but patches 2, 3 and 6 should be considered a single
update.
The changes affect the following parts of the driver:
1. Deferred URB processing
The deferred URB processing that was originally done by a tasklet
is now done by a NAPI polling routine. The NAPI cycle has a fixed
work budget that controls how many received frames are passed to
the network stack.
Patch 6 introduces the NAPI polling but depends on preceding patches.
The new NAPI polling routine is also responsible for submitting
Rx and Tx URBs to the USB host controller.
Moving the URB processing to a NAPI-based system "smoothed"
incoming and outgoing data flows on the Android system under
investigation. However, taken in isolation, moving from a tasklet
approach to a NAPI approach made little or no difference to the
overall performance.
2. URB buffer management
The driver creates a pool of Tx and a pool of Rx URB buffers. Each
buffer is large enough to accommodate a packet with the maximum MTU
data. URBs are allocated from these pools as required.
Patch 2 introduces the new Tx buffer pool.
Patch 3 introduces the new Rx buffer pool.
3. Tx pending data
SKBs containing data to be transmitted are added to a queue. The
driver tracks free Tx URBs and the corresponding free Tx URB space.
When new Tx URBs are submitted, pending data is copied into the
URB buffer until the URB buffer is filled or there is no more
pending data. This maximises utilisation the LAN78xx internal
USB and network frame buffers.
New Tx URBs are submitted to the USB host controller as part of the
NAPI polling cycle.
Patch 2 introduces these changes.
4. Rx URB completion
A new URB is no longer submitted as part of the URB completion
callback.
New URBs are submitted during the NAPI polling cycle.
Patch 3 introduces these changes.
5. Rx URB processing
Completed URBs are put on to queue for processing (as is done in the
current driver). Network packets in completed URBs are copied from
the URB buffer in to dynamically allocated SKBs and passed to
the network stack.
The emptied URBs are resubmitted to the USB host controller.
Patch 3 introduces this change. Patch 6 updates the change to use
NAPI SKBs.
Each packet passed to the network stack is a single NAPI work item.
If the NAPI work budget is exhausted the remaining packets in the
URB are put onto an overflow queue that is processed at the start
of the next NAPI cycle.
Patch 6 introduces this change.
6. Driver-specific hard_header_len
The driver-specific hard_header_len adjustment was removed as it
broke generic receive offload (GRO) processing. Moreover, it was no
longer required due the change in Tx pending data management (see
point 3. above).
Patch 5 introduces this change.
The modification has been tested on four different target machines:
Target | CPU | ARCH | cores | kernel | RAM |
-----------------+------------+---------+-------+--------+-------|
Raspberry Pi 4B | Cortex-A72 | aarch64 | 4 | 64-bit | 2 GB |
Nitrogen8M SBC | Cortex-A53 | aarch64 | 4 | 64-bit | 2 GB |
Compaq Pressario | Pentium D | i686 | 2 | 32-bit | 4 GB |
Dell T3620 | Core i3 | x86_64 | 2+2 | 64-bit | 16 GB |
The targets, apart from the Compaq, each have an on-chip USB3 host
controller. A PCIe-based USB3 host controller card was added to the
Compaq to provide the necessary USB3 host interface.
The network throughput was measured using iperf3. The peer device was
a second Dell T3620 fitted with an Intel i210 network interface. The
target machine and the peer device were connected via a Netgear GS105
gigabit switch.
The CPU load was measured using mpstat running on the target machine.
The tables below summarise the throughput and CPU load improvements
achieved by the updated driver.
The bandwidth is the average bandwidth reported by iperf3 at the end
of a 60-second test.
The percentage idle figure is the average idle reported across all
CPU cores on the target machine for the duration of the test.

This patch introduces a NAPI-style approach for processing completed
Rx URBs that contributes to improving driver throughput and reducing
CPU load.
Packets in completed URBs are copied to NAPI SKBs and passed to the
network stack for processing. Each frame passed to the stack is one
work item in the NAPI budget.
If the NAPI budget is consumed and frames remain, they are added to
an overflow queue that is processed at the start of the next NAPI
polling cycle.
The NAPI handler is also responsible for copying pending Tx data to
Tx URBs and submitting them to the USB host controller for
transmission.

Remove hardware-specific header length adjustment as it is no longer
required. It also breaks generic receive offload (GRO) processing of
received TCP frames that results in a TCP ACK being sent for each
received frame.

This patch introduces a new approach to allocating and managing
Rx URBs that contributes to improving driver throughput and reducing
CPU load.
A pool of Rx URBs is created during driver instantiation. All the
URBs are initially submitted to the USB host controller for
processing.
The default URB buffer size is different for each USB bus speed.
The chosen sizes provide good USB utilisation with little impact on
overall packet latency.
Completed URBs are processed in the driver bottom half. The URB
buffer contents are copied to a dynamically allocated SKB, which is
then passed to the network stack. The URB is then re-submitted to
the USB host controller.
NOTE: the call to skb_copy() in rx_process() that copies the URB
contents to a new SKB is a temporary change to make this patch work
in its own right. This call will be removed when the NAPI processing
is introduced by patch 6 in this patch set.

This patch introduces a new approach to allocating and managing
Tx URBs that contributes to improving driver throughput and reducing
CPU load.
A pool of Tx URBs is created during driver instantiation. A URB is
allocated from the pool when there is data to transmit. The URB is
released back to the pool when the data has been transmitted by the
device.
The default URB buffer size is different for each USB bus speed.
The chosen sizes provide good USB utilisation with little impact on
overall packet latency.
SKBs to be transmitted are added to a pending queue for processing.
The driver tracks the available Tx URB buffer space and copies as
much pending data as possible into each free URB. Each full URB
is then submitted to the USB host controller for transmission.

net: dsa: felix: psfp support on vsc9959
VSC9959 hardware supports Per-Stream Filtering and Policing(PSFP).
This patch series add PSFP support on tc flower offload of ocelot
driver. Use chain 30000 to distinguish PSFP from VCAP blocks. Add gate
and police set to support PSFP in VSC9959 driver.
v6-v7 changes:
- Add a patch to restrict psfp rules on ingress port.
- Using stats.drops to show the packet count discarded by the rule.
v5->v6 changes:
- Modify ocelot_mact_lookup() parameters.
- Use parameters ssid and sfid instead of streamdata in
ocelot_mact_learn_streamdata() function.
- Serialize STREAMDATA and MAC table write.
v4->v5 changes:
- Add MAC table lock patch, and move stream data write in
ocelot_mact_learn_streamdata().
- Add two sections of VCAP policers to Seville platform.
v3->v4 changes:
- Introduce vsc9959_psfp_sfi_table_get() function in patch where it is
used to fix compile warning.
v2->v3 changes:
- Reorder first two patches. Export struct ocelot_mact_entry, then add
ocelot_mact_lookup() and ocelot_mact_write() functions.
- Add PSFP list to struct ocelot, and init it by using
ocelot->ops->psfp_init().
v1->v2 changes:
- Use tc flower offload of ocelot driver to support PSFP add and delete.
- Add PSFP tables add/del functions in felix_vsc9959.c.

PSFP rules take effect on the streams from any port of VSC9959 switch.
This patch use ingress port to limit the rule only active on this port.
Each stream can only match two ingress source ports in VSC9959. Streams
from lowest port gets the configuration of SFID pointed by MAC Table
lookup and streams from highest port gets the configuration of (SFID+1)
pointed by MAC Table lookup. This patch defines the PSFP rule on highest
port as dummy rule, which means that it does not modify the MAC table.

This patch add police action to set flow meter table which is defined
in IEEE802.1Qci. Flow metering is two rates two buckets and three color
marker to policing the frames, we only enable one rate one bucket in
this patch.
Flow metering shares a same policer pool with VCAP policers, so the PSFP
policer calls ocelot_vcap_policer_add() and ocelot_vcap_policer_del() to
set flow meter police.

Policer was previously automatically assigned from the highest index to
the lowest index from policer pool. But police action of tc flower now
uses index to set an police entry. This patch uses the police index to
set vcap policers, so that one policer can be shared by multiple rules.
