efx_start_datapath() asserts that we can fit 2 RX scatter buffers plus
a software structure, each appropriately aligned, into a single page.
Where L1_CACHE_BYTES == 256 and PAGE_SIZE == 4096, which is the case
on s390, this assertion fails.
The current scatter buffer size is also not a multiple of 64 or 128,
which are more common cache line sizes. If we can make both the start
and end of a scatter buffer cache-aligned, this will reduce the need
for read-modify-write operations on inter- processor links.
Fix the alignment by reducing EFX_RX_USR_BUF_SIZE to 2048 - 256 ==
1792. (We could use 2048 - L1_CACHE_BYTES, but EFX_RX_USR_BUF_SIZE
also affects user-level networking where a larger amount of
housekeeping data may be needed. Although this version of the driver
does not support user-level networking, I prefer to keep scattering
behaviour consistent with the out-of-tree version.)
This still doesn't fix the s390 build because like most architectures
it has NET_IP_ALIGN == 2. When NET_IP_ALIGN != 0 we cannot achieve
cache line alignment at either the start or end of a scatter buffer,
so there is actually no point in padding the buffers to a multiple of
the cache line size. All we need is 4-byte alignment of the network
header, so do that.
Adjust the assertions accordingly.

Allocating 2 buffers per page is insanely inefficient when MTU is 1500
and PAGE_SIZE is 64K (as it usually is on POWER). Allocate as many as
we can fit, and choose the refill batch size at run-time so that we
still always use a whole page at once.

On POWER systems, DMA mapping/unmapping operations are very expensive.
These changes reduce these costs by trying to reuse DMA mapped pages.
After all the buffers associated with a page have been processed and
passed up, the page is placed into a ring (if there is room). For
each page that is required for a refill operation, a page in the ring
is examined to determine if its page count has fallen to 1, ie. the
kernel has released its reference to these packets. If this is the
case, the page can be immediately added back into the RX descriptor
ring, without having to re-map it for DMA.
If the kernel is still holding a reference to this page, it is removed
from the ring and unmapped for DMA. Then a new page, which can
immediately be used by RX buffers in the descriptor ring, is allocated
and DMA mapped.
The time a page needs to spend in the recycle ring before the kernel
has released its page references is based on the number of buffers
that use this page. As large pages can hold more RX buffers, the RX
recycle ring can be shorter. This reduces memory usage on POWER
systems, while maintaining the performance gain achieved by recycling
pages, following the driver change to pack more than two RX buffers
into large pages.
When an IOMMU is not present, the recycle ring can be small to reduce
memory usage, since DMA mapping operations are inexpensive.
With a small recycle ring, attempting to refill the descriptor queue
with more buffers than the equivalent size of the recycle ring could
ultimately lead to memory leaks if page entries in the recycle ring
were overwritten. To prevent this, the check to see if the recycle
ring is full is changed to check if the next entry to be written is
NULL.

before the following buffer-packing changes. Remove module
parameter.]

Enable RX DMA scattering iff an RX buffer large enough for the current
MTU will not fit into a single page and the NIC supports DMA
scattering for kernel-mode RX queues.
On Falcon and Siena, the RX_USR_BUF_SIZE field is used as the DMA
limit for both all RX queues with scatter enabled. Set it to 1824,
matching what Onload uses now.
Maintain a statistic for frames truncated due to lack of descriptors
(rx_nodesc_trunc). This is distinct from rx_frm_trunc which may be
incremented when scattering is disabled and implies an over-length
frame.
Whenever an MTU change causes scattering to be turned on or off,
update filters that point to the PF queues, but leave others
unchanged, as VF drivers assume scattering is off.
Add n_frags parameters to various functions, and make them iterate:
- efx_rx_packet()
- efx_recycle_rx_buffers()
- efx_rx_mk_skb()
- efx_rx_deliver()
Make efx_handle_rx_event() responsible for updating
efx_rx_queue::removed_count.
Change the RX pipeline state to a starting ring index and number of
fragments, and make __efx_rx_packet() responsible for clearing it.

RX DMA buffers start at an offset of EFX_PAGE_IP_ALIGN bytes from the
start of a cache line. This offset obviously needs to be included in
the virtual address, but this was missed in commit b590ace09d
('sfc: Fix efx_rx_buf_offset() in the presence of swiotlb') since
EFX_PAGE_IP_ALIGN is equal to 0 on both x86 and powerpc.
Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <bhutchings@solarflare.com>
We assume that the mapping between DMA and virtual addresses is done
on whole pages, so we can find the page offset of an RX buffer using
the lower bits of the DMA address. However, swiotlb maps in units of
2K, breaking this assumption.
Add an explicit page_offset field to struct efx_rx_buffer.

We may currently allocate two RX DMA buffers to a page, and only unmap
the page when the second is completed. We do not sync the first RX
buffer to be completed; this can result in packet loss or corruption
if the last RX buffer completed in a NAPI poll is the first in a page
and is not DMA-coherent. (In the middle of a NAPI poll, we will
handle the following RX completion and unmap the page *before* looking
at the content of the first buffer.)

When pre-allocating skbs for received packets, we set ip_summed =
CHECKSUM_UNNCESSARY. We used to change it back to CHECKSUM_NONE when
the received packet had an incorrect checksum or unhandled protocol.
Commit bc8acf2c8c ('drivers/net: avoid
some skb->ip_summed initializations') mistakenly replaced the latter
assignment with a DEBUG-only assertion that ip_summed ==
CHECKSUM_NONE. This assertion is always false, but it seems no-one
has exercised this code path in a DEBUG build.
Fix this by moving our assignment of CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY into
efx_rx_packet_gro().

When SR-IOV is enabled we may receive FLR (Function-Level Reset)
events, associated queue flush events and requests from VF drivers at
any time. Therefore we need to keep event queues and interrupts
enabled whenever possible.
Currently we stop interrupt-driven event processing before flushing RX
and TX queues; efx_nic_flush_queues() then polls event queues for
flush events and discards any others it finds. Change it to work with
the regular event handling functions.
Currently efx_start_channel() fills RX queues synchronously when a
device is brought up. This could now race with NAPI, so change it to
send fill events.

This function returns the page offset of the buffer, which can be
calculated based on either its DMA address or its virtual address. It
used to use the virtual address and we would cast that to unsigned
long, as anything smaller would result in a compiler warning. Now
that it's using the DMA address we should use unsigned int, matching
the return type. It is also unnecessary to use __force.
