Most users of ndo_do_ioctl are ethernet drivers that implement
the MII commands SIOCGMIIPHY/SIOCGMIIREG/SIOCSMIIREG, or hardware
timestamping with SIOCSHWTSTAMP/SIOCGHWTSTAMP.

Separate these from the few drivers that use ndo_do_ioctl to
implement SIOCBOND, SIOCBR and SIOCWANDEV commands.

This is a purely cosmetic change intended to help readers find
their way through the implementation.

<title>macvlan: Add nodst option to macvlan type source</title>

<content type='text'>
The default behavior for source MACVLAN is to duplicate packets to
appropriate type source devices, and then do the normal destination MACVLAN
flow. This patch adds an option to skip destination MACVLAN processing if
any matching source MACVLAN device has the option set.

This allows setting up a "catch all" device for source MACVLAN: create one
or more devices with type source nodst, and one device with e.g. type vepa,
and incoming traffic will be received on exactly one device.

v2: netdev wants non-standard line length

<title>macvlan: Support for high multicast packet rate</title>

<content type='text'>
Background:
Broadcast and multicast packages are enqueued for later processing.
This queue was previously hardcoded to 1000.

This proved insufficient for handling very high packet rates.
This resulted in packet drops for multicast.
While at the same time unicast worked fine.

The change:
This patch make the queue length adjustable to accommodate
for environments with very high multicast packet rate.
But still keeps the default value of 1000 unless specified.

The queue length is specified as a request per macvlan
using the IFLA_MACVLAN_BC_QUEUE_LEN parameter.

The actual used queue length will then be the maximum of
any macvlan connected to the same port. The actual used
queue length for the port can be retrieved (read only)
by the IFLA_MACVLAN_BC_QUEUE_LEN_USED parameter for verification.

This will be followed up by a patch to iproute2
in order to adjust the parameter from userspace.

<title>macvlan: validate setting of multiple remote source MAC addresses</title>

<id>8b61fba503904acae24aeb2bd5569b4d6544d48f</id>
<content type='text'>
Remote source MAC addresses can be set on a 'source mode' macvlan
interface via the IFLA_MACVLAN_MACADDR_DATA attribute. This commit
tightens the validation of these MAC addresses to match the validation
already performed when setting or adding a single MAC address via the
IFLA_MACVLAN_MACADDR attribute.

iproute2 uses IFLA_MACVLAN_MACADDR_DATA for its 'macvlan macaddr set'
command, and IFLA_MACVLAN_MACADDR for its 'macvlan macaddr add' command,
which demonstrates the inconsistent behaviour that this commit
addresses:

 # ip link add link eth0 name macvlan0 type macvlan mode source
 # ip link set link dev macvlan0 type macvlan macaddr add 01:00:00:00:00:00
 RTNETLINK answers: Cannot assign requested address
 # ip link set link dev macvlan0 type macvlan macaddr set 01:00:00:00:00:00
 # ip -d link show macvlan0
 5: macvlan0@eth0: &lt;BROADCAST,MULTICAST,DYNAMIC,UP,LOWER_UP&gt; mtu 1500 ...
     link/ether 2e:ac:fd:2d:69:f8 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff promiscuity 0
     macvlan mode source remotes (1) 01:00:00:00:00:00 numtxqueues 1 ...

With this change, the 'set' command will (rightly) fail in the same way
as the 'add' command.
