The libfc discovery layer is being initialized in the
'create' paths for both legacy libfcoe module parameters
and fcoe_sysfs control interfaces. The problem is that
for VN2VN mode the discovery layer is initialized as if
it were in 'fabric' mode and it is not re-configured when
the mode is changed to 'vn2vn'.
This patch splits out code that needs to be initialized
once and code that can, and should be, re-configured when
the mode changes. Additionally this patch makes that change
so that the discovery layer can be reconfigured to the
libfcoe implementation when in 'vn2vn' mode.

When there are multiple FCFs in the fabric, and one of them becomes
unavailable, the fabric name for the unavailable FCF becomes 0 along
with FIP_FL_AVAIL getting reset. In this case, FCF selection logic does
not select any FCF as it first checks for conflicting FCFs (since fabric
name is 0, it fails the condition), instead of first checking if it is
usable or not. Fix it by first checking if FCF is usable and skip that
FCF, and go to the next one in the list to check if it can be selected.

When a CVL is received while we wait to select best FCF, we drop it
without handling it. This causes initiator and the switch to go
out-of-sync. Initiator proceeds selecting one of the FCFs and tries to
send FIP FLOGI. However the switch may reject the FLOGI, as it has
cleared its internal state, and expects the initiator to start FIP
discovery protocol. Fix this condition by resetting the fcoe
controller.

Based on feedback and discussion with Neil Horman it seems that the above patch
may have a case where the fcoe_vport_destroy() and fcoe_destroy_work() can
race; hence that patch has been withdrawn with this patch that is trying to
solve the same problem in a different way.
In the current approach instead of removing the fcoe_config_mutex from the
vport_delete callback function; I've chosen to delete all the NPIV ports first
on a given root lport before continuing with the removal of the root lport.

When creating an fcoe interfce, we call fcoe_link_speed_update before we add the
lports fcoe interface to the fc_hostlist. Since network device events like
NETDEV_CHANGE are only processed if an fcoe interface is found with an
underlying netdev that matches the netdev of the event. Since this processing
in fcoe_device_notification is how link_speed changes get communicated to the
libfc code (via fcoe_link_speed_update), we have a race condition - if a
NETDEV_CHANGE event is sent after the call to fcoe_link_speed_update in
fcoe_netdev_config, but before we add the interface to the fc_hostlist, we will
loose the event and attributes like /sys/class/fc_host/hostX/speed will not get
updated properly.
Fix this by moving the add to the fc_hostlist above the serialized call to
fcoe_netdev_config, ensuring that we catch netdev envents before we make a
direct call to fcoe_link_speed_update.
Also use this opportunity to clean up access to the fc_hostlist a bit by
creating a fcoe_hostlist_del accessor and replacing the cleanup in fcoe_exit to
use it properly.

This renames all random32 functions to have 'prandom_' prefix as follows:
void prandom_seed(u32 seed); /* rename from srandom32() */
u32 prandom_u32(void); /* rename from random32() */
void prandom_seed_state(struct rnd_state *state, u64 seed);
/* rename from prandom32_seed() */
u32 prandom_u32_state(struct rnd_state *state);
/* rename from prandom32() */
The purpose of this renaming is to prevent some kernel developers from
assuming that prandom32() and random32() might imply that only
prandom32() was the one using a pseudo-random number generator by
prandom32's "p", and the result may be a very embarassing security
exposure. This concern was expressed by Theodore Ts'o.
And furthermore, I'm going to introduce new functions for getting the
requested number of pseudo-random bytes. If I continue to use both
prandom32 and random32 prefixes for these functions, the confusion
is getting worse.
As a result of this renaming, "prandom_" is the common prefix for
pseudo-random number library.
Currently, srandom32() and random32() are preserved because it is
difficult to rename too many users at once.

This patch adds support for the new fcoe_sysfs
control interface to fcoe.ko. It keeps the deprecated
interface in tact and therefore either the legacy
or the new control interfaces can be used. A mixed mode
is not supported. A user must either use the new
interfaces or the old ones, but not both.
The fcoe_ctlr's link state is now driven by both the
netdev link state as well as the fcoe_ctlr_device's
enabled attribute. The link must be up and the
fcoe_ctlr_device must be enabled before the FCoE
Controller starts discovery or login.

This patch does a few things.
1) Makes /sys/bus/fcoe/ctlr_{create,destroy} interfaces.
These interfaces take an <ifname> and will either
create an FCoE Controller or destroy an FCoE
Controller depending on which file is written to.
The new FCoE Controller will start in a DISABLED
state and will not do discovery or login until it
is ENABLED. This pause will allow us to configure
the FCoE Controller before enabling it.
2) Makes the 'mode' attribute of a fcoe_ctlr_device
writale. This allows the user to configure the mode
in which the FCoE Controller will start in when it
is ENABLED.
Possible modes are 'Fabric', or 'VN2VN'.
The default mode for a fcoe_ctlr{,_device} is 'Fabric'.
Drivers must implement the set_fcoe_ctlr_mode routine
to support this feature.
libfcoe offers an exported routine to set a FCoE
Controller's mode. The mode can only be changed
when the FCoE Controller is DISABLED.
This patch also removes the get_fcoe_ctlr_mode pointer
in the fcoe_sysfs function template, the code in
fcoe_ctlr.c to get the mode and the assignment of
the fcoe_sysfs function pointer to the fcoe_ctlr.c
implementation (in fcoe and bnx2fc). fcoe_sysfs can
return that value for the mode without consulting the
LLD.
3) Make a 'enabled' attribute of a fcoe_ctlr_device. On a
read, fcoe_sysfs will return the attribute's value. On
a write, fcoe_sysfs will call the LLD (if there is a
callback) to notifiy that the enalbed state has changed.
This patch maintains the old FCoE control interfaces as
module parameters, but it adds comments pointing out that
the old interfaces are deprecated.

Instead of creating a structure with an enum and a pointer
to a string, simply allocate an array of strings and use
the enum values for the indicies.
This means that we do not need to iterate through the list
of entries when looking up a string name by its enum key.
This will also help with a latter patch that will add
more fcoe_sysfs attributes that will also use the
fcoe_enum_name_search macro. One attribute will also do
a reverse lookup which requires less code when the
enum-to-string mappings are organized as this patch makes
them to be.

SCSI errors were generated while writing to LUNs
connected via NPIV ports.
Debugging this it was found that the FCoE packets
transmitted via the NPIV ports were not tagged with
correct user priority as negotiated with peer by DCB
agent. This resulted in FCoE traffic going with priority
zero(0) that did not have priority flow control (PFC)
enabled for it. The initiator after transferring data
to the target never saw any reply indicating the transfer
was complete. This resulted in error recovery (ABTS) and
SCSI command retries by the scsi-mid layer; eventually
resulting in I/O errors.
This patch fixes this issue by keeping the FCoE user
priority information in the fcoe_interface instance
that is common for both the physical port as well as
NPIV ports connected to that physical port; instead
of storing it in fcoe_port structure that has a per
port instance.

libfcoe also takes part in this new model since it
discovers and manages fcoe_fcf instances. The memory
allocation is different for FCFs. I didn't want to
impact libfcoe's fcoe_fcf processing, so this patch
creates fcoe_fcf_device instances for each discovered
fcoe_fcf. The two are paired using a (void * priv)
member of the fcoe_ctlr_device. This allows libfcoe
to continue maintaining its list of fcoe_fcf instances

This patch adds a 'fcoe bus' infrastructure to the kernel
that is driven by changes to libfcoe which allow LLDs to
present FIP (FCoE Initialization Protocol) discovered
entities and their attributes to user space via sysfs.
This patch adds the following APIs-
fcoe_ctlr_device_add
fcoe_ctlr_device_delete
fcoe_fcf_device_add
fcoe_fcf_device_delete
They allow the LLD to expose the FCoE ENode Controller
and any discovered FCFs (Fibre Channel Forwarders, e.g.
FCoE switches) to the user. Each of these new devices
has their own bus_type so that they are grouped together
for easy lookup from a user space application. Each
new class has an attribute_group to expose attributes
for any created instances. The attributes are-
fcoe_ctlr_device
* fcf_dev_loss_tmo
* lesb_link_fail
* lesb_vlink_fail
* lesb_miss_fka
* lesb_symb_err
* lesb_err_block
* lesb_fcs_error
fcoe_fcf_device
* fabric_name
* switch_name
* priority
* selected
* fc_map
* vfid
* mac
* fka_peroid
* fabric_state
* dev_loss_tmo
A device loss infrastructre similar to the FC Transport's
is also added by this patch. It is nice to have so that a
link flapping adapter doesn't continually advance the count
used to identify the discovered FCF. FCFs will exist in a
"Disconnected" state until either the timer expires or the
FCF is rediscovered and becomes "Connected."
This patch generates a few checkpatch.pl WARNINGS that
I'm not sure what to do about. They're macros modeled
around the FC Transport attribute building macros, which
have the same 'feature' where the caller can ommit a cast
in the argument list and no cast occurs in the code. I'm
not sure how to keep the code condensed while keeping the
macros. Any advice would be appreciated.

Currently the fcoe_ctlr associated with an interface is allocated
as a member of struct fcoe_interface. This causes problems when
attempting to use the new fcoe_sysfs APIs which allow us to allocate
the fcoe_interface as private data to the fcoe_ctlr_device instance.
The problem is that libfcoe wants to be able use pointer math to find a
fcoe_ctlr's fcoe_ctlr_device as well as finding a fcoe_ctlr_device's
assocated fcoe_ctlr. To do this we need to allocate the
fcoe_ctlr_device, with private data for the LLD. The private data
contains the fcoe_ctlr and its private data is the fcoe_interface.
This patch only allocates the fcoe_interface with the fcoe_ctlr, the
fcoe_ctlr_device will be added in a later patch, which will complete
the below diagram-
+------------------+
| fcoe_ctlr_device |
+------------------+
| fcoe_ctlr |
+------------------+
| fcoe_interface |
+------------------+
This prep work will allow us to go from a fcoe_ctlr_device instance
to its fcoe_ctlr as well as from a fcoe_ctlr to its fcoe_ctlr_device
once the fcoe_sysfs API is in use (later patches in this series).

The rtnl_mutex was held to protect calls to dev_uc_add
and dev_uc_del. Holding rtnl is not required as those
functions make use of the netif_addr_lock* API to
protect the MAC changing.
This change fixes the following regression by removing
the rtnl usage when fcoe_update_src_mac is called.

Remove lport from net device and then do synchronize net device to flush
inflight rx frames for the lport before doing fcoe_percpu_clean.
In case of master lport, remove all rx packet handlers completely and
then only do fcoe_percpu_clean. This required splitting fcoe_interface_cleanup
to do remove part separately and for that added func fcoe_interface_remove
and then call it from fcoe_if_destory before doing fcoe_percpu_clean.
However if fcoe_interface_remove() is already called then
don't call again from fcoe_interface_cleanup() to preserve its
existing flows.
This patch along with Neil's other patch to avoid soft irq context
on ingress will avoid passing up frames on disabled lport as

The rtnl_lock is primarily used to serialize networking
driver changes as well as to ensure that a networking driver
is not removed when making changes to it. fcoe also uses
the rtnl_lock to protect the fcoe hostlist.
fcoe_create holds the rtnl_lock over the entirity of the
routine including a the call to fcoe_ctlr_link_up.
This causes the below deadlock because fcoe_ctlr_link_up
acquires the fcoe_ctlr ctlr_mutex and this deadlocks with
a libfcoe thread that acquires the fcoe_ctlr ctlr_mutex and
then the rtnl_lock (to update a MAC address).
This patch drops the rtnl_lock before calling
fcoe_ctlr_link_up and therefore the deadlock is prevented.

There is potentially lots of contention for the rx_list_lock. On a cpu that is
receiving lots of fcoe traffic, the softirq context has to add and release the
lock for every frame it receives, as does the receiving per-cpu thread. We can
reduce this contention somewhat by altering the per-cpu threads loop such that
when traffic is detected on the fcoe_rx_list, we splice it to a temporary list.
In this way, we can process multiple skbs while only having to acquire and
release the fcoe_rx_list lock once.

Some switch implementations (eg., HP virtual connect FlexFabric) send two MAC
descriptors in FIP FLOGI response, with first MAC descriptor (granted_mac) used
as FPMA, and the second one (fcoe_mac) used as destination address for
sending/receiving FCoE packets. fip_mac continues to be used for FIP traffic.
This patch introduces fcoe_mac in fcoe_fcf structure. For regular switches,
both fcoe_mac and fip_mac will be the same. For the switches that send
additional MAC descriptor, fcoe_mac is updated.

commit 859b7b649a introduced the ability to call
fcoe_recv_frame in softirq context. While this is beneficial to performance,
its not safe to do, as it breaks the serialization of access to the lport
structure (i.e. when an fcoe interface is being torn down, theres no way to
serialize the teardown effort with the completion of receieve operations
occuring in softirq context. As a result, lport (and other) data structures can
be read and modified in parallel leading to corruption. Most notable is the
vport list, which is protected by a mutex, that will cause a panic if a softirq
receive while said mutex is locked. Additionaly, the ema_list, discussed here:
http://lists.open-fcoe.org/pipermail/devel/2012-February/011947.html
Can be corrupted if a list traversal occurs in softirq context at the same time
as a list delete in process context. And generally the lport state variables
will not be stable, and may lead to unpredictable results.
The most direct fix is to remove the bits from the above commit that allowed
fcoe_recv_frame to be called in softirq context. We just force all frames to be
handled by the per-cpu rx threads. This will allow the fcoe_if_destroy's use of
fcoe_percpu_clean to function properly, ensuring that no frames are being
received while the lport is being torn down.

Currently all port deletion is routed though the FCoE
workqueue (fcoe_wq). When fc_remove_host is called on
an N_Port (for example, from fcoe_destroy) the vports
are queued into a FC Transport workqueue. fc_remove_host
flushes that queue and each vport is passed to fcoe's
fcoe_vport_destroy, which simply queues the associated
fcoe_ports for later deletion. This queue cannot be
flushed within the N_Ports destroy path because of
circular locking issues. The result is that the NPIV
ports are destroyed after the N_Port, which is reverse
of how they are created.
This quirk causes fcoe to keep references on the
fcoe_interface shared by each of these ports (N_Port
and NPIV). Changing the ordering such that NPIV ports
are destroyed before the N_Port will allow us to remove
reference counting on the fcoe_interface instances.
This patch simply allows fcoe_vport_destory to destroy
NPIV ports without deferring them to a workqueue context.
This ensures that when fc_remove_host is called the
NPIV ports will be destroyed first before the N_Port and
allows reference counting on the fcoe's fcoe_interface
to be remove in a later patch.

called when the module reference 'get' succeeded.
I think it makes more sense to name the label,
'out_putmod' since it should be called when we
need to 'put' the module reference taken in the
routine before returning.
