ConnectX-5 and later HW generations will report min inline mode ==
MLX5_INLINE_MODE_NONE, which means driver is not required to copy packet
headers to inline fields of TX WQE.
When inline is not required, vlan insertion will be handled in the
TX descriptor rather than copy to inline.
For LSO case driver is still required to copy headers, for the HW to
duplicate on wire.
This will improve CPU utilization and boost TX performance.
Tested with pktgen burst single flow:
CPU: Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2680 v3 @ 2.50GHz
HCA: Mellanox Technologies MT28800 Family [ConnectX-5 Ex]
Before: 15.1Mpps
After: 17.2Mpps
Improvement: 14%

Add new TX WQE fields for Connect-X5 vlan insertion support,
type and vlan_tci, when type = MLX5_ETH_WQE_INSERT_VLAN the
HW will insert the vlan and prio fields (vlan_tci) to the packet.
Those bits and the inline header fields are mutually exclusive, and
valid only when:
MLX5_CAP_ETH(mdev, wqe_inline_mode) == MLX5_CAP_INLINE_MODE_NOT_REQUIRED
and MLX5_CAP_ETH(mdev, wqe_vlan_insert),
who will be set in ConnectX-5 and later HW generations.

There is a hardware feature that will pad the start or end of a DMA to
be cache line aligned to avoid RMWs on the last cache line. The default
cache line size setting for this feature is 64B. This change configures
the hardware to use 128B alignment on systems with 128B cache lines.
In addition we lower bound MPWRQ stride by HCA cacheline in mlx5e,
MPWRQ stride should be at least the HCA cacheline, the current default
is 64B and in case HCA_CAP.cach_line_128byte capability is set, MPWRQ RX
stride will automatically be aligned to 128B.

The flexcan IP core has 64 mailboxes. For now they are configured for
RX as a hardware FIFO. This FIFO has a fixed depth of 6 CAN frames. In
some high load scenarios it turns out thas this buffer is too small.
In order to have a buffer larger than the 6 frames FIFO, this patch adds
support for timestamp based offloading via the generic rx-offload
infrastructure.

Modern flexcan IP cores support two RX modes. One is using the 6 fames deep
hardware FIFO, the other is using up to 64 mailboxes (in non FIFO mode). For
now only the HW FIFO mode is activated.
In order to make use of the RX mailboxes the individual RX masking feature has
to be activated, otherwise matching mailboxes are overwritten during the
reception process. This however switches on the individual RX masking, which
uses reg_rximr registers for masking.
This patch activates the individual RX masking feature unconditionally and
initializes the mask registers (reg_rximr) with 0x0 == "don't care", which
switches off any filtering.

This patch converts the flexcan driver to make use of the rx-offload
can_rx_offload_irq_offload_fifo() helper function. The idea is to read
the CAN frames already in the interrupt context, as the depth of the
flexcan HW FIFO is too shallow, resulting in too many missed frames.
During a normal NAPI poll the frames are the pushed into the upper
layers.

Some CAN controllers don't implement a FIFO in hardware, but fill their
mailboxes in a particular order (from lowest to highest or highest to lowest).
This makes problems to read the frames in the correct order from the hardware,
as new frames might be filled into just read (low) mailboxes. This gets worse,
when following new frames are received into not read (higher) mailboxes.
On the bright side some these CAN controllers put a timestamp on each received
CAN frame. This patch adds support to offload CAN frames in interrupt context,
order them by timestamp and then transmitted in a NAPI context.

snd_seq_pool_done() syncs with closing of all opened threads, but it
aborts the wait loop with a timeout, and proceeds to the release
resource even if not all threads have been closed. The timeout was 5
seconds, and if you run a crazy stuff, it can exceed easily, and may
result in the access of the invalid memory address -- this is what
syzkaller detected in a bug report.
As a fix, let the code graduate from naiveness, simply remove the loop
timeout.

Incorrect num_elem parameter value (1 vs. 5) was used in the
aes_siv_encrypt() call. This resulted in only the first one of the five
AAD vectors to SIV getting included in calculation. This does not
protect all the contents correctly and would not interoperate with a
standard compliant implementation.
Fix this by using the correct number. A matching fix is needed in the AP
side (hostapd) to get FILS authentication working properly.

Commit:
a33d331761bc ("x86/CPU/AMD: Fix Bulldozer topology")
restored the initial approach we had with the Fam15h topology of
enumerating CU (Compute Unit) threads as cores. And this is still
correct - they're beefier than HT threads but still have some
shared functionality.
Our current approach has a problem with the Mad Max Steam game, for
example. Yves Dionne reported a certain "choppiness" while playing on
v4.9.5.
That problem stems most likely from the fact that the CU threads share
resources within one CU and when we schedule to a thread of a different
compute unit, this incurs latency due to migrating the working set to a
different CU through the caches.
When the thread siblings mask mirrors that aspect of the CUs and
threads, the scheduler pays attention to it and tries to schedule within
one CU first. Which takes care of the latency, of course.

David Ahern says:
====================
net: ipv6: Improve user experience with multipath routes
This series closes a couple of gaps between IPv4 and IPv6 with respect
to multipath routes:
1. IPv4 allows all nexthops of multipath routes to be deleted using just
the prefix and length; IPv6 only deletes the first nexthop for the
route if only the prefix and length are given.
2. IPv4 returns multipath routes encoded in the RTA_MULTIPATH attribute.
IPv6 returns a series of routes with the same prefix and length - one
for each nexthop. This happens for both dumps and notifications.
IPv6 does accept RTA_MULTIPATH encoded routes, but installs them as a
series of routes.
Patch 1 addresses the first item by allowing IPv6 multipath routes to be
deleted using just the prefix and length. Patch 2 addresses the second
allowing IPv6 multipath routes to be returned encoded in the RTA_MULTIPATH.
Patches 3 and 4 upate the RTM_{NEW,DEL}ROUTE notifications to generate
1 notification with RTA_MULTIPATH where applicable.
Patch 5 prints IPv6 addresses in compressed format when showing route
replace errors. This was noticed testing REPLACE failures.
The end result for multipath routes:
1. Dump
- RTA_MULTIPATH used for multipath routes
$ ip -6 ro ls vrf red
2001:db8:1::/120 dev eth1 proto kernel metric 256 pref medium
2001:db8:2::/120 dev eth2 proto kernel metric 256 pref medium
2001:db8:200::/120 metric 1024
nexthop via 2001:db8:1::2 dev eth1 weight 1
nexthop via 2001:db8:2::2 dev eth2 weight 1
...
2. Route Add
- one notification with RTA_MULTIPATH attribute
$ ip -6 ro add vrf red 2001:db8:200::/120 nexthop via 2001:db8:1::2 nexthop via 2001:db8:2::2
$ ip mon route
2001:db8:200::/120 table red metric 1024
nexthop via 2001:db8:1::2 dev eth1 weight 1
nexthop via 2001:db8:2::2 dev eth2 weight 1
2. Route Replace
- one notification with RTA_MULTIPATH attribute
$ ip -6 ro replace vrf red 2001:db8:200::/120 nexthop via 2001:db8:1::16 nexthop via 2001:db8:2::16
$ ip mon route
Replaced 2001:db8:200::/120 table red metric 1024
nexthop via 2001:db8:1::16 dev eth1 weight 1
nexthop via 2001:db8:2::16 dev eth2 weight 1
- on a failure after the insertion of the first nexthop (which means
the original route has been replaced in the FIB), a notification is
sent with the successful nexthops and then the nexthops are deleted
with one notification per hop. This is consistent with how it works
today except the successful additions are coalesced into 1
notification.
3. Route Delete
- delete of entire multipath route using prefix/length only 1
notification is generated:
$ ip -6 ro del vrf red 2001:db8:200::/120
$ ip mon route
Deleted 2001:db8:200::/120 table red metric 1024
nexthop via 2001:db8:1::16 dev eth1 weight 1
nexthop via 2001:db8:2::16 dev eth2 weight 1
- if a delete request contains nexthops one notification is
generated per nexthop deleted. This is unavoidable since IPv6
alllows a single nexthop to be deleted within a multipath route
4. Route Appends
- IPv6 allows nexthops to be appended to an existing route. In this
case one notification is sent for the new route with the append
flag set.
$ ip -6 ro append vrf red 2001:db8:200::/120 nexthop via 2001:db8:2::20 nexthop via 2001:db8:1::20
$ ip mon route
Append 2001:db8:200::/120 table red metric 1024
nexthop via 2001:db8:1::2 dev eth1 weight 1
nexthop via 2001:db8:2::2 dev eth2 weight 1
nexthop via 2001:db8:2::20 dev eth2 weight 1
nexthop via 2001:db8:1::20 dev eth1 weight 1
- on failure of an append, a notification is sent with the route
containing all of the nexthops successfully added, and it is
followed by delete notifications as the hops are removed
returning the route to its prior state. This is consistent with
how it works today except the successful additions are coalesced
into 1 notification.
Addresses some of the inconsistencies also noted by Roopa at netdev0.1:
https://www.netdev01.org/docs/prabhu-linux_ipv4_ipv6_inconsistencies_talk_slides.pdf
v4
- changed series to do encoding in 1 patch and updating notificatons
in separate patches to make it easier to review and understand
- 1 notification for delete when using prefix/length; 1 notification for
append
- handle delete of a single nexthop without RTA_MULTIPATH in delete request
- upated commit messages and cover letter
v3
- removed the need for a user API to opt-in to change. Requiring an
API just shifts the difference from same API with different
behavior to different API to achieve equivalent behavior
- route notifications changed to use RTA_MULTIPATH for add and replace
- upated commit messages and cover letter
v2
- fixed locking in patch 1 as noted by DaveM
- changed user API for patch 2 to require an rtmsg with RTM_F_ALL_NEXTHOPS
set in rtm_flags
- revamped explanation of patch 2 and cover letter
