Eric Dumazet b5e2c45783 tcp: remove obsolete check in tcp_set_skb_tso_segs()
We had various issues in the past when TCP stack was modifying
gso_size/gso_segs while clones were in flight.

Commit c52e2421f7 ("tcp: must unclone packets before mangling them")
fixed these bugs and added a WARN_ON_ONCE(skb_cloned(skb)); in
tcp_set_skb_tso_segs()

These bugs are now fixed, and because TCP stack now only sets
shinfo->gso_size|segs on the clone itself, the check can be removed.

As a result of this change, compiler inlines tcp_set_skb_tso_segs() in
tcp_init_tso_segs()

Eric Dumazet f69ad292cf tcp: fill shinfo->gso_size at last moment
In commit cd7d8498c9 ("tcp: change tcp_skb_pcount() location") we stored
gso_segs in a temporary cache hot location.

This patch does the same for gso_size.

This allows to save 2 cache line misses in tcp xmit path for
the last packet that is considered but not sent because of
various conditions (cwnd, tso defer, receiver window, TSQ...)

Eric Dumazet 51466a7545 tcp: fill shinfo->gso_type at last moment
Our goal is to touch skb_shinfo(skb) only when absolutely needed,
to avoid two cache line misses in TCP output path for last skb
that is considered but not sent because of various conditions
(cwnd, tso defer, receiver window, TSQ...)

A packet is GSO only when skb_shinfo(skb)->gso_size is not zero.

We can set skb_shinfo(skb)->gso_type to sk->sk_gso_type even for
non GSO packets.

Eric Dumazet a7eea416cb tcp: reserve tcp_skb_mss() to tcp stack
tcp_gso_segment() and tcp_gro_receive() are not strictly
part of TCP stack. They should not assume tcp_skb_mss(skb)
is in fact skb_shinfo(skb)->gso_size.

This will allow us to change tcp_skb_mss() in following patches.

Fix a BUG_ON() where CONFIG_NET_SWITCHDEV is set but the driver for a
bridged port does not support switchdev_port_attr_set op.  Don't BUG_ON()
if -EOPNOTSUPP is returned.

Also change BUG_ON() to netdev_err since this is a normal error path and
does not warrant the use of BUG_ON(), which is reserved for unrecoverable

flags also cannot have BNA_RXF_F_PAUSED value and is always zero.
So the flags member can be removed as well as bna_rxf_flags enum and
the code-paths that needs to have non-zero bna_rxf->flags.

Saeed Mahameed 12be4b2190 net/mlx5e: Support NETIF_F_SG
When NETIF_F_SG is set, each send WQE may have a different size since
each skb can have different number of fragments as of LSO header etc.

This implies that a given WQE may wrap around the send queue, i.e begin
at its end and continue at its start. While it is legal by the device spec,
we preferred a solution that avoids it - when building of current WQE is
done, if the next WQE may wrap around the send queue, fill the send queue
with NOPs WQEs till its end, so that the next WQE will begin at send queue
start.

NOP WQE for itself cannot wrap around the send queue since it is of
minimal size - 64 bytes, and all send WQEs are a multiple of that size.

net: broadcom MDIO support for broken turn-around

These two patches update the GENET and UniMAC MDIO controllers to deal with
PHYs that are known to have a broken turn-around bug (e.g: BCM53125 and others)

This utilizes the infrastructure that code recently added to do that in 'net-next'.

Note that the changes look nearly identical and I will try to address the MDIO
code duplication between GENET and UniMAC in a future patch series.

Changes in v2:
- remove brcmphy.h include in mdio-bcm-unimac.c
- use the same comment as with GENET's MDIO read function

Sergei Shtylyov a0d2f20650 Renesas Ethernet AVB PTP clock driver
Ethernet AVB device includes the gPTP  timer, so we can implement a PTP clock
driver.  We're doing that in a separate file, with  the main Ethernet driver
calling the PTP driver's [de]initialization and interrupt handler functions.
Unfortunately, the clock seems tightly coupled with the AVB-DMAC, so when that
one leaves the operation mode, we have to unregister the PTP clock... :-(

Sergei Shtylyov c156633f13 Renesas Ethernet AVB driver proper
Ethernet AVB includes an Gigabit Ethernet controller (E-MAC) that is basically
compatible with SuperH Gigabit Ethernet E-MAC.  Ethernet AVB has  a  dedicated
direct memory access controller (AVB-DMAC) that is a new design compared to the
SuperH E-DMAC. The AVB-DMAC is compliant with 3 standards formulated for IEEE
802.1BA: IEEE 802.1AS timing and synchronization protocol, IEEE 802.1Qav real-
time transfer, and the IEEE 802.1Qat stream reservation protocol.

The  driver only supports device tree probing, so the binding document is
included in this patch.

Kenneth Klette Jonassen 2b0a8c9eee tcp: add CDG congestion control
CAIA Delay-Gradient (CDG) is a TCP congestion control that modifies
the TCP sender in order to [1]:

  o Use the delay gradient as a congestion signal.
  o Back off with an average probability that is independent of the RTT.
  o Coexist with flows that use loss-based congestion control, i.e.,
    flows that are unresponsive to the delay signal.
  o Tolerate packet loss unrelated to congestion. (Disabled by default.)

Its FreeBSD implementation was presented for the ICCRG in July 2012;
slides are available at http://www.ietf.org/proceedings/84/iccrg.html

Running the experiment scenarios in [1] suggests that our implementation
achieves more goodput compared with FreeBSD 10.0 senders, although it also
causes more queueing delay for a given backoff factor.

The loss tolerance heuristic is disabled by default due to safety concerns
for its use in the Internet [2, p. 45-46].

We use a variant of the Hybrid Slow start algorithm in tcp_cubic to reduce
the probability of slow start overshoot.

Kenneth Klette Jonassen 7782ad8bb5 tcp: export tcp_enter_cwr()
Upcoming tcp_cdg uses tcp_enter_cwr() to initiate PRR. Export this
function so that CDG can be compiled as a module.
