The "imply" keyword is a weak version of "select" where the target
config symbol can still be turned off, avoiding those pitfalls that come
with the "select" keyword.
This is useful e.g. with multiple drivers that want to indicate their
ability to hook into a secondary subsystem while allowing the user to
configure that subsystem out without also having to unset these drivers.
Currently, the same effect can almost be achieved with:
config DRIVER_A
tristate
config DRIVER_B
tristate
config DRIVER_C
tristate
config DRIVER_D
tristate
[...]
config SUBSYSTEM_X
tristate
default DRIVER_A || DRIVER_B || DRIVER_C || DRIVER_D || [...]
This is unwieldy to maintain especially with a large number of drivers.
Furthermore, there is no easy way to restrict the choice for SUBSYSTEM_X
to y or n, excluding m, when some drivers are built-in. The "select"
keyword allows for excluding m, but it excludes n as well. Hence
this "imply" keyword. The above becomes:
config DRIVER_A
tristate
imply SUBSYSTEM_X
config DRIVER_B
tristate
imply SUBSYSTEM_X
[...]
config SUBSYSTEM_X
tristate
This is much cleaner, and way more flexible than "select". SUBSYSTEM_X
can still be configured out, and it can be set as a module when none of
the drivers are configured in or all of them are modular.

specified in the VBT
My heuristic for detecting type 1 DVI DP++ adaptors based on the VBT
port information apparently didn't survive the reality of buggy VBTs.
In this particular case we have a machine with a natice HDMI port, but
the VBT tells us it's a DP++ port based on its capabilities.
The dvo_port information in VBT does claim that we're dealing with a
HDMI port though, but we have other machines which do the same even
when they actually have DP++ ports. So that piece of information alone
isn't sufficient to tell the two apart.
After staring at a bunch of VBTs from various machines, I have to
conclude that the only other semi-reliable clue we can use is the
presence of the AUX channel in the VBT. On this particular machine
AUX channel is specified as zero, whereas on some of the other machines
which listed the DP++ port as HDMI have a non-zero AUX channel.
I've also seen VBTs which have dvo_port a DP but have a zero AUX
channel. I believe those we need to treat as DP ports, so we'll limit
the AUX channel check to just the cases where dvo_port is HDMI.
If we encounter any more serious failures with this heuristic I think
we'll have to have to throw it out entirely. But that could mean that
there is a risk of type 1 DVI dongle users getting greeted by a
black screen, so I'd rather not go there unless absolutely necessary.

alx: add multi queue support
This patchset lays the groundwork for multi queue support in the alx driver
and enables multi queue support for the tx path by default. The hardware
supports up to 4 tx queues.
Benefits are better utilization of multi core cpus and the usage of the
msi-x support by default which splits the handling of rx / tx and misc
other interrupts.
The rx path is a little bit harder because apparently (based on the limited
information from the downstream driver) the hardware supports up to 8 rss
queues but only has one hardware descriptor ring on the rx side. So the rx
path will be part of another patchset.
Tested on my AR8161 ethernet adapter with different tests:
- there are no regressions observed during my daily usage
- iperf tcp and udp tests shows no performance regressions
- netperf TCP_RR and UDP_RR shows a slight performance increase of about
1-2% with this patchset applied
This work is based on the downstream driver at github.com/qca/alx
Changes in V2:
- drop unneeded casts in alx_alloc_rx_ring (Patch 1)
- add additional information about testing and benefit to the
changelog

Add new functions to allocate and free the alx_napi structures and use them
in __alx_open and __alx_stop. We only allocate one of these structures for
now, as the rest of the driver is not yet ready for multiple queues.
We switch over the setup of the interrupt mask and the call to netif_napi_add
to the new function because we must adjust these later on a per queue basis.

dpaa_eth: Add the QorIQ DPAA Ethernet driver
This patch series adds the Ethernet driver for the Freescale
QorIQ Data Path Acceleration Architecture (DPAA).
This version includes changes following the feedback received
on previous versions from Eric Dumazet, Bob Cochran, Joe Perches,
Paul Bolle, Joakim Tjernlund, Scott Wood, David Miller - thank you.
Together with the driver a managed version of alloc_percpu
is provided that simplifies the release of per-CPU memory.
The Freescale DPAA architecture consists in a series of hardware
blocks that support the Ethernet connectivity. The Ethernet driver
depends upon the following drivers that are currently in the Linux
kernel:
- Peripheral Access Memory Unit (PAMU)
drivers/iommu/fsl_*
- Frame Manager (FMan) added in v4.4
drivers/net/ethernet/freescale/fman
- Queue Manager (QMan), Buffer Manager (BMan) added in v4.9-rc1
drivers/soc/fsl/qbman
dpaa_eth interfaces mapping to FMan MACs:

QMan = DPAA Queue Manager
BMan = DPAA Buffers Manager
QMI = QMan interface in FMan
BMI = BMan interface in FMan

tgec = ten gigabit Ethernet controller (10 Gbps)
memac = multirate Ethernet MAC (10/100/1000/10000)
Changes from v7:
- remove the debug option to use a common buffer pool for all the
interfaces

- remove likely in error paths
- use container_of() instead of open casts
- remove priv from the driver name
- move return type on same line with function name
- drop DPA_READ_SKB_PTR/DPA_WRITE_SKB_PTR
Changes from v3:

Rolf Neugebauer reported very long delays at netns dismantle.
Eric W. Biederman was kind enough to look at this problem
and noticed synchronize_net() occurring from netif_napi_del() that was
added in linux-4.5
Busy polling makes no sense for tunnels NAPI.
If busy poll is used for sessions over tunnels, the poller will need to
poll the physical device queue anyway.
netif_tx_napi_add() could be used here, but function name is misleading,
and renaming it is not stable material, so set NAPI_STATE_NO_BUSY_POLL
bit directly.
This will avoid inserting gro_cells napi structures in napi_hash[]
and avoid the problematic synchronize_net() (per possible cpu) that
Rolf reported.

The EMAC EMAC_RX_IO_DATA_REG data register is dual-purpose: On one hand
it is used to move actual packet data off the wire. This will be in
wire-format and accepted as such by higher layers such as IP. Therefore
it is correctly read as-is (i.e. raw) using readsl.
On the other hand it provides metadata about incoming transfers to the
driver such as length and checksum validation status. This data is
little-endian, always and it is interpreted by the driver. Therefore it
needs to be swapped to CPU endianness to make sense to the driver. This
is already done for the "receive header" but not rxhdr.
Read rxhdr using readl in order for sun4i-emac to work correctly when
running a big-endian kernel.

sun4i-emac has the ability to print a number of diagnostic messages using
dev_dbg depending on message level settings implemented using netif_msg_*
macros. But there's no way to actually enable them.
Add the ability to switch diagnostic messages on using either a module
parameter debug or ethtool -s <netif> msglvl <flags>.

The stmmac driver does not take into account the processor may be big
endian when writing the DMA descriptors. This causes the ethernet
interface not to be initialised correctly when running a big-endian
kernel. Change the descriptors for DMA to use __le32 and ensure they are
suitably swapped before writing. Tested successfully on the
Cubieboard2.

draft-ietf-tcpm-dctcp-02 says:
... when the sender receives an indication of congestion
(ECE), the sender SHOULD update cwnd as follows:
cwnd = cwnd * (1 - DCTCP.Alpha / 2)
So, lets do this and reduce cwnd more smoothly (and faster), as per
current congestion estimate.

Introduced a typo making the driver no longer build, *sigh*.

The patch disable capturing multicast packets when multicast mode
disabled for ethernet ('ifconfig eth0 -multicast'). In that case
no multicast packet will be passed to kernel.

Multicast support was implemented by commit 775dd682e2b0ec7
('arc_emac: implement promiscuous mode and multicast filtering').
It can be enabled explicity using 'ifconfig eth0 multicast'.
The patch is needed in order to remove explicit configuration
as most devices has multicast mode enabled by default.

====================
stmmac: fix PTP support
This subset of patches aim to fix the PTP support
for the stmmac and especially for 4.x chip series.
While setting PTP on an ST box with 4.00a Ethernet
core, the kernel panics due to a broken settings
of the descriptors. The patches review the
register configuration, the algo used for configuring
the protocol, the way to get the timestamp inside
the RX/TX descriptors and, in the end, the statistics
displayed by ethtool.
V2: RESEND all the patches adding the Acked-by.

This patch fixes the ethtool stats for PTP frames; previous
version does not take care about some message types: i.e.
announce, management and signaling. It also provided a
broken statistic in case of "No PTP message received".
