====================
Introduce Intel IDPF driver
Pavan Kumar Linga says:
This patch series introduces the Intel Infrastructure Data Path Function
(IDPF) driver. It is used for both physical and virtual functions. Except
for some of the device operations the rest of the functionality is the
same for both PF and VF. IDPF uses virtchnl version2 opcodes and
structures defined in the virtchnl2 header file which helps the driver
to learn the capabilities and register offsets from the device
Control Plane (CP) instead of assuming the default values.
The format of the series follows the driver init flow to interface open.
To start with, probe gets called and kicks off the driver initialization
by spawning the 'vc_event_task' work queue which in turn calls the
'hard reset' function. As part of that, the mailbox is initialized which
is used to send/receive the virtchnl messages to/from the CP. Once that is
done, 'core init' kicks in which requests all the required global resources
from the CP and spawns the 'init_task' work queue to create the vports.
Based on the capability information received, the driver creates the said
number of vports (one or many) where each vport is associated to a netdev.
Also, each vport has its own resources such as queues, vectors etc.
From there, rest of the netdev_ops and data path are added.
IDPF implements both single queue which is traditional queueing model
as well as split queue model. In split queue model, it uses separate queue
for both completion descriptors and buffers which helps to implement
out-of-order completions. It also helps to implement asymmetric queues,
for example multiple RX completion queues can be processed by a single
RX buffer queue and multiple TX buffer queues can be processed by a
single TX completion queue. In single queue model, same queue is used
for both descriptor completions as well as buffer completions. It also
supports features such as generic checksum offload, generic receive
offload (hardware GRO) etc.

v7:
Patch 2:
* removed pci_[disable|enable]_pcie_error_reporting as they are dropped
from the core
Patch 4, 9:
* used 'kasprintf' instead of 'snprintf' to avoid providing explicit
character string size which also fixes "-Wformat-truncation" warnings
Patch 14:
* used 'ethtool_sprintf' instead of 'snprintf' to avoid providing explicit
character string size which also fixes "-Wformat-truncation" warning
* add string format argument to the 'ethtool_sprintf' to avoid warning on
"-Wformat-security"
v6: https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20230825235954.894050-1-pavan.kumar.linga@intel.com/
Note: 'Acked-by' was only added to patches 1, 2, 12 and not to the other
patches because of the changes in v6
Patch 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 11, 13, 14, 15:
* renamed 'reset_lock' to 'vport_ctrl_lock' to reflect the lock usage
* to avoid defensive programming, used 'vport_ctrl_lock' for the user
callbacks that access the 'vport' to prevent the hardware reset thread
from releasing the 'vport', when the user callback is in progress
* added some variables to netdev private structure to avoid vport access
if possible from ethtool and ndo callbacks
* moved 'mac_filter_list_lock' and MAC related flags to vport_config
structure and refactored mac filter flow to handle asynchronous
ndo mac filter callbacks
* stop the queues before starting the reset flow to avoid TX hangs
* removed 'sw_mutex' and 'stop_mutex' as they are not needed anymore
* added missing clear bit in 'init_task' error path
* renamed labels appropriately
Patch 8:
* replaced page_pool_put_page with page_pool_put_full_page
* for the page pool max_len, used PAGE_SIZE
Patch 10, 11, 13:
* made use of the 'netif_txq_maybe_stop', '__netif_txq_completed_wake'
helper macros
Patch 13:
* removed IDPF_HR_RESET_IN_PROG flag check in idpf_tx_singleq_start
as it is defensive
Patch 14:
* removed max descriptor check as the core does that
* removed unnecessary error messages
* removed the stats that are common between the ones reported by ethtool
and ip link
* replaced snprintf with ethtool_sprintf
* added a comment to explain the reason for the max queue check
* as the netdev queues are set on alloc, there is no need to set
them again on reset unless there is a queue change, so move the
'idpf_set_real_num_queues' to 'idpf_initiate_soft_reset'
Patch 15:
* reworded the 'configure SRIOV' in the commit message
v5: https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20230816004305.216136-1-anthony.l.nguyen@intel.com/
Most Patches:
* wrapped line limit to 80 chars to those which don't effect readability
Patch 12:
* in skb_add_rx_frag, offset 'headlen' w.r.t page_offset when adding a
frag to avoid adding the header again
Patch 14:
* added NULL check for 'rxq' when dereferencing it in page_pool_get_stats
v4: https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20230808003416.3805142-1-anthony.l.nguyen@intel.com/
Patch 1:
* s/virtcnl/virtchnl
* removed the kernel doc for the error code definitions that don't exist
* reworded the summary part in the virtchnl2 header
Patch 3:
* don't set local variable to NULL on error
* renamed sq_send_command_out label with err_unlock
* don't use __GFP_ZERO in dma_alloc_coherent
Patch 4:
* introduced mailbox workqueue to process mailbox interrupts
Patch 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 11, 15:
* removed unnecessary variable 0-init
Patch 3, 5, 7, 8, 9, 15:
* removed defensive programming checks wherever applicable
* removed IDPF_CAP_FIELD_LAST as it can be treated as defensive
programming
Patch 3, 4, 5, 6, 7:
* replaced IDPF_DFLT_MBX_BUF_SIZE with IDPF_CTLQ_MAX_BUF_LEN
Patch 2 to 15:
* add kernel-doc for idpf.h and idpf_txrx.h enums and structures
Patch 4, 5, 15:
* adjusted the destroy sequence of the workqueues as per the alloc
sequence
Patch 4, 5, 9, 15:
* scrub unnecessary flags in 'idpf_flags'
- IDPF_REMOVE_IN_PROG flag can take care of the cases where
IDPF_REL_RES_IN_PROG is used, removed the later one
- IDPF_REQ_[TX|RX]_SPLITQ are replaced with struct variables
- IDPF_CANCEL_[SERVICE|STATS]_TASK are redundant as the work queue
doesn't get rescheduled again after 'cancel_delayed_work_sync'
- IDPF_HR_CORE_RESET is removed as there is no set_bit for this flag
- IDPF_MB_INTR_TRIGGER is removed as it is not needed anymore with the
mailbox workqueue implementation
Patch 7 to 15:
* replaced the custom buffer recycling code with page pool API
* switched the header split buffer allocations from using a bunch of
pages to using one large chunk of DMA memory
* reordered some of the flows in vport_open to support page pool

adjusted the return flow
* used 'break' instead of 'continue' in ptype id switch case

* introduced 'stats_lock' spinlock to avoid concurrent stats update.
