<title>ixgbe/ixgbevf: Don't use lco_csum to compute IPv4 checksum</title>

In the case of IPIP and SIT tunnel frames the outer transport header
offset is actually set to the same offset as the inner transport header.
This results in the lco_csum call not doing any checksum computation over
the inner IPv4/v6 header data.

In order to account for that I am updating the code so that we determine
the location to start the checksum ourselves based on the location of the
IPv4 header and the length.

<title>i40e: disable MSI-X interrupts if we cannot reserve enough vectors</title>

<content type='text'>
If we fail on allocating enough MSI-X interrupts, we should disable
them since they were previously enabled in this point of code.

Not disabling them can lead to WARN_ON() being triggered and subsequent
failure in enabling MSI as a fallback; the below message was shown without
this patch while we played with interrupt allocation in i40e driver:

[ 21.461346] sysfs: cannot create duplicate filename '/devices/pci0007:00/0007:00:00.0/0007:01:00.3/msi_irqs'

[ 21.461514] WARNING: CPU: 64 PID: 1155 at fs/sysfs/dir.c:31 sysfs_warn_dup+0x88/0xc0

Also, we noticed that without this patch, if we modprobe the module without
enough MSI-X interrupts (triggering the above warning), unload the module
and re-load it again, we got a crash on the system.

<content type='text'>
in commit a036244c068612a43fa8c0f33a0eb4daa4d8dba0 a fix
was put into place to avoid a kernel panic when a non-
supported traffic class configuration was put into place
and then lldp was enabled/disabled on the link partner
switch.  This fix caused it to be necessary to
unload/reload the driver to reenable DCB once a supported
TC config was in place.

The root cause of the original panic was that the function
i40e_pf_get_default_tc was allowing for a default TC other
than TC 0, and only TC 0 is supported as a default.

This patch removes the get_default_tc function and replaces
it with a #define since there is only one TC supported as
a default.

100GbE Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2016-10-02

This series contains updates to fm10k only.

Jake fixes an issue where PTP applications requesting software timestamps
may complain that the requested mode is not supported, so add a generic
callback for those drivers that have software transmit timestamp support
enabled.  Then provides a trivial cleanup where a code was not wrapped
properly.  Got make sure that code looks good in a 80 character limit.

<title>i40e: avoid NULL pointer dereference and recursive errors on early PCI error</title>

<id>edfc23ee3e0ebbb6713d7574ab1b00abff178f6c</id>
<content type='text'>
Although rare, it's possible to hit PCI error early on device
probe, meaning possibly some structs are not entirely initialized,
and some might even be completely uninitialized, leading to NULL
pointer dereference.

The i40e driver currently presents a "bad" behavior if device hits
such early PCI error: firstly, the struct i40e_pf might not be
attached to pci_dev yet, leading to a NULL pointer dereference on
access to pf-&gt;state.

Even checking if the struct is NULL and avoiding the access in that
case isn't enough, since the driver cannot recover from PCI error
that early; in our experiments we saw multiple failures on kernel
log, like:

  [549.664] i40e 0007:01:00.1: Initial pf_reset failed: -15
  [549.664] i40e: probe of 0007:01:00.1 failed with error -15
  [...]
  [871.644] i40e 0007:01:00.1: The driver for the device stopped because the
  device firmware failed to init. Try updating your NVM image.
  [871.644] i40e: probe of 0007:01:00.1 failed with error -32
  [...]
  [872.516] i40e 0007:01:00.0: ARQ: Unknown event 0x0000 ignored

Between the first probe failure (error -15) and the second (error -32)
another PCI error happened due to the first bad probe. Also, driver
started to flood console with those ARQ event messages.

This patch will prevent these issues by allowing error recovery
mechanism to remove the failed device from the system instead of
trying to recover from early PCI errors during device probe.

Currently if the MSI-X vector limit is reached the sideband flow
director gets disabled. A bit too early to make that decision, as
vectors may get re-distributed. So move the check further back.

The driver allocates 1 vector per CPU thread and the current hardware
limit for vectors is 129 per PF. On systems with 128 or more threads
this currently means all vectors are used by the PF leaving no room for
additional features like VMDq, iWARP, etc...
The code that should redistribute the vectors in this case is broken and
never triggers. Fixed the code so that it actually triggers if the
hardware limit is reached and adjust the number of queue pairs
accordingly.
Also the number of initially requested iWARP vectors was not properly
saved when the vector limit was reached, and therefore always zero.

Comparison with debug statement.
Before:
i40e 0000:2d:00.0: VMDq disabled, not enough MSI-X vectors
i40e 0000:2d:00.0: IWARP disabled, not enough MSI-X vectors
i40e 00.0 MSI-X vector distribution: PF 128, VMDq 0, FDSB 0, iWARP 0
After:
i40e 0000:2d:00.0: MSI-X vector limit reached, attempting to redistribute vectors
i40e 00.0 MSI-X vector distribution: PF 78, VMDq 8, FDSB 0, iWARP 42
