While testing the performance of different receive interrupt
coalescing settings on a single stream TCP benchmark, I noticed two
very different results. With rx-usecs=50, most of the time a
connection would hit 8280 Mbps but once in a while it would hit
9330 Mbps.
It turns out we are only applying the interrupt coalescing settings
to the first queue and whenever the rx hash would direct us onto
that queue we ran faster.
With this patch applied and rx-usecs=50, I get 9330 Mbps
consistently.

flush_scheduled_work() is on its way out. This patch contains simple
conversions to replace flush_scheduled_work() usage with direct
cancels and flushes.
Directly cancel the used works on driver detach and flush them in
other cases.
The conversions are mostly straight forward and the only dangers are,
* Forgetting to cancel/flush one or more used works.
* Cancelling when a work should be flushed (ie. the work must be
executed once scheduled whether the driver is detaching or not).
I've gone over the changes multiple times but it would be much
appreciated if you can review with the above points in mind.

Many (but not all) drivers check to see whether there is a vlan
group configured before using a tag stored in the skb. There's
not much point in this check since it just throws away data that
should only be present in the expected circumstances. However,
it will soon be legal and expected to get a vlan tag when no
vlan group is configured, so remove this check from all drivers
to avoid dropping the tags.

percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.
percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.
http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
The script does the followings.
* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used,
gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.
* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains
core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
doesn't seem to be any matching order.
* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
file.
The conversion was done in the following steps.
1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400
files.
2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion,
some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added
inclusions to around 150 files.
3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.
4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.
5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h
inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each
slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
necessary.
6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).
* x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
* powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
* sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
* ia64 SMP allmodconfig
* s390 SMP allmodconfig
* alpha SMP allmodconfig
* um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig
8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
a separate patch and serve as bisection point.
Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

T3 hardware doorbell FIFO overflows can cause application stalls due
to lost doorbell ring events. This has been seen when running large
NP IMB alltoall MPI jobs. The T3 hardware supports an xon/xoff-type
flow control mechanism to help avoid overflowing the HW doorbell FIFO.
This patch uses these interrupts to disable RDMA QP doorbell rings
when we near an overflow condition, and then turn them back on (and
ring all the active QP doorbells) when when the doorbell FIFO empties
out. In addition if an doorbell ring is dropped by the hardware, the
code will now recover.
Design:
cxgb3:
- enable these DB interrupts
- in the interrupt handler, schedule work tasks to call the ULPs event
handlers with the new events.
- ring all the qset txqs when an overflow is detected.
iw_cxgb3:
- disable db ringing on all active qps when we get the DB_FULL event
- enable db ringing on all active qps and ring all active dbs when we get
the DB_EMPTY event
- On DB_DROP event:
- disable db rings in the event handler
- delay-schedule a work task which rings and enables the dbs on
all active qps.
- in post_send and post_recv logic, don't ring the db if it's disabled.
