This patch has the SW FCoE driver and the bnx2fc
driver make use of the new fcoe_sysfs API added
earlier in this patch series.
After this patch a fcoe_ctlr_device is allocated with
private data in this order.
+------------------+ +------------------+
| fcoe_ctlr_device | | fcoe_ctlr_device |
+------------------+ +------------------+
| fcoe_ctlr | | fcoe_ctlr |
+------------------+ +------------------+
| fcoe_interface | | bnx2fc_interface |
+------------------+ +------------------+
libfcoe also takes part in this new model since it
discovers and manages fcoe_fcf instances. The memory
allocation is different for FCFs. I didn't want to
impact libfcoe's fcoe_fcf processing, so this patch
creates fcoe_fcf_device instances for each discovered
fcoe_fcf. The two are paired using a (void * priv)
member of the fcoe_ctlr_device. This allows libfcoe
to continue maintaining its list of fcoe_fcf instances
and simply attaches and detaches them from existing
or new fcoe_fcf_device instances.

This patch adds a 'fcoe bus' infrastructure to the kernel
that is driven by changes to libfcoe which allow LLDs to
present FIP (FCoE Initialization Protocol) discovered
entities and their attributes to user space via sysfs.
This patch adds the following APIs-
fcoe_ctlr_device_add
fcoe_ctlr_device_delete
fcoe_fcf_device_add
fcoe_fcf_device_delete
They allow the LLD to expose the FCoE ENode Controller
and any discovered FCFs (Fibre Channel Forwarders, e.g.
FCoE switches) to the user. Each of these new devices
has their own bus_type so that they are grouped together
for easy lookup from a user space application. Each
new class has an attribute_group to expose attributes
for any created instances. The attributes are-
fcoe_ctlr_device
* fcf_dev_loss_tmo
* lesb_link_fail
* lesb_vlink_fail
* lesb_miss_fka
* lesb_symb_err
* lesb_err_block
* lesb_fcs_error
fcoe_fcf_device
* fabric_name
* switch_name
* priority
* selected
* fc_map
* vfid
* mac
* fka_peroid
* fabric_state
* dev_loss_tmo
A device loss infrastructre similar to the FC Transport's
is also added by this patch. It is nice to have so that a
link flapping adapter doesn't continually advance the count
used to identify the discovered FCF. FCFs will exist in a
"Disconnected" state until either the timer expires or the
FCF is rediscovered and becomes "Connected."
This patch generates a few checkpatch.pl WARNINGS that
I'm not sure what to do about. They're macros modeled
around the FC Transport attribute building macros, which
have the same 'feature' where the caller can ommit a cast
in the argument list and no cast occurs in the code. I'm
not sure how to keep the code condensed while keeping the
macros. Any advice would be appreciated.

Currently the fcoe_ctlr associated with an interface is allocated
as a member of struct fcoe_interface. This causes problems when
attempting to use the new fcoe_sysfs APIs which allow us to allocate
the fcoe_interface as private data to the fcoe_ctlr_device instance.
The problem is that libfcoe wants to be able use pointer math to find a
fcoe_ctlr's fcoe_ctlr_device as well as finding a fcoe_ctlr_device's
assocated fcoe_ctlr. To do this we need to allocate the
fcoe_ctlr_device, with private data for the LLD. The private data
contains the fcoe_ctlr and its private data is the fcoe_interface.
This patch only allocates the fcoe_interface with the fcoe_ctlr, the
fcoe_ctlr_device will be added in a later patch, which will complete
the below diagram-
+------------------+
| fcoe_ctlr_device |
+------------------+
| fcoe_ctlr |
+------------------+
| fcoe_interface |
+------------------+
This prep work will allow us to go from a fcoe_ctlr_device instance
to its fcoe_ctlr as well as from a fcoe_ctlr to its fcoe_ctlr_device
once the fcoe_sysfs API is in use (later patches in this series).

Some switch implementations (eg., HP virtual connect FlexFabric) send two MAC
descriptors in FIP FLOGI response, with first MAC descriptor (granted_mac) used
as FPMA, and the second one (fcoe_mac) used as destination address for
sending/receiving FCoE packets. fip_mac continues to be used for FIP traffic.
This patch introduces fcoe_mac in fcoe_fcf structure. For regular switches,
both fcoe_mac and fip_mac will be the same. For the switches that send
additional MAC descriptor, fcoe_mac is updated.

skb priority
Use DCB notifiers to set the skb priority to allow packets
to be steered and tagged correctly over DCB enabled drivers
that setup traffic classes.
This allows queue_mapping() routines to be removed in these
drivers that were previously inspecting the ethertype of
every skb to mark FCoE/FIP frames.

To facilitate LLDDs to reuse the code, skb queue related functions are moved to
libfcoe, so that both fcoe and bnx2fc drivers can use them. The common structures
fcoe_port, fcoe_percpu_s are moved to libfcoe. fcoe_port will now have an
opaque pointer that points to corresponding driver's interface structure.
Also, fcoe_start_io and fcoe_fc_crc are moved to libfcoe.
As part of this change, fixed fcoe_start_io to return ENOMEM if
skb_clone fails.

Switches using multiple-FCFs may reject FLOGI in order to
balance the load between multiple FCFs. Even though the FCF
was available, it may have more load at the point we actually
send the FLOGI.
If the FLOGI fails, select a different FCF
if possible, among those with the same priority. If no other
FCF is available, just deliver the reject to libfc for retry.

The FC-BB-6 committee is proposing a new FIP usage model called
VN_port to VN_port mode. It allows VN_ports to discover each other
over a loss-free L2 Ethernet without any FCF or Fibre-channel fabric
services. This is point-to-multipoint. There is also a variant
of this called point-to-point which provides for making sure there
is just one pair of ports operating over the Ethernet fabric.
We add these new states: VNMP_START, _PROBE1, _PROBE2, _CLAIM, and _UP.
These usually go quickly in that sequence. After waiting a random
amount of time up to 100 ms in START, we select a pseudo-random
proposed locally-unique port ID and send out probes in states PROBE1
and PROBE2, 100 ms apart. If no probe responses are heard, we
proceed to CLAIM state 400 ms later and send a claim notification.
We wait another 400 ms to receive claim responses, which give us
a list of the other nodes on the network, including their FC-4
capabilities. After another 400 ms we go to VNMP_UP state and
should start interoperating with any of the nodes for whic we
receivec claim responses. More details are in the spec.j
Add the new mode as FIP_MODE_VN2VN. The driver must specify
explicitly that it wants to operate in this mode. There is
no automatic detection between point-to-multipoint and fabric
mode, and the local port initialization is affected, so it isn't
anticipated that there will ever be any such automatic switchover.
It may eventually be possible to have both fabric and VN2VN
modes on the same L2 network, which may be done by two separate
local VN_ports (lports).
When in VN2VN mode, FIP replaces libfc's fabric-oriented discovery
module with its own simple code that adds remote ports as they
are discovered from incoming claim notifications and responses.
These hooks are placed by fcoe_disc_init().
A linear list of discovered vn_ports is maintained under the
fcoe_ctlr struct. It is expected to be short for now, and
accessed infrequently. It is kept under RCU for lock-ordering
reasons. The lport and/or rport mutexes may be held when we
need to lookup a fcoe_vnport during an ELS send.
Change fcoe_ctlr_encaps() to lookup the destination vn_port in
the list of peers for the destination MAC address of the
FIP-encapsulated frame.
Add a new function fcoe_disc_init() to initialize just the
discovery portion of libfcoe for VN2VN mode.

It turns out most of the FIP work is now done from worker threads
or process context now, so there's no need to use a spin lock.
Change to use mutex instead of spin lock and delayed_work instead
of a timer.

This is per FC-BB-5 Annex-D recommendation and per that
if address checking fails then drop the frame.
FIP code paths are already doing this so only needed for fcoe
frames.
The src address checking is limited to only fip mode since
this might break non-fip mode used in p2p due to used OUI
based addressing in some p2p code paths, going forward FIP
will be the only mode, therefore limited this to only FIP
mode so that it won't break non-fip p2p mode for now.

There was a locking problem where the fip->lock was held during
the call to update_mac(). The rtnl_lock() must be taken before
the fip->lock, not the other way around. This fixes that.
Now that fcoe_ctlr_recv_flog() is called only from the response handler
to a FLOGI request, some checking can be eliminated. Instead of calling
update_mac(), just fill in the granted_mac address for the passed-in
frame (skb).
Eliminate the passed-in source MAC address since it is also in the skb.
Also, in fcoe, call fcoe_set_src_mac() directly instead of going thru
the fip function pointer. This will generate less code.
Then, since fip isn't needed for LOGO response, use lport as the arg.

The fnic driver with FIP is reporting link up, even though it's down.
When the interface is shut down by the switch, we receive a clear
virtual link, and set the state reported to libfc as down, although
we still report it up. Clearly wrong. That causes the subsequent
link down event not to be reported, and /sys shows the host "Online".
Currently, in FIP mode, if an FCF times out, then link to libfc
is reported as down, to stop FLOGIs. That interferes with the LLD
link down being reported.
Users really need to know the physical link information, to diagnose
cabling issues, so physical link status should be reported to libfc.
If the selected FCF needs to be reported, that should be done
separately, in a later patch.

The FIP code in libfcoe needed several changes to support NPIV
1) dst_src_addr needs to be managed per-n_port-ID for FPMA fabrics with NPIV
enabled. Managing the MAC address is now handled in fcoe, with some slight
changes to update_mac() and a new get_src_addr() function pointer.
2) The libfc elsct_send() hook is used to setup FCoE specific response
handlers for FIP encapsulated ELS exchanges. This lets the FCoE specific
handling know which VN_Port the exchange is for, and doesn't require
tracking OX_IDs. It might be possible to roll back to the full FIP frame
in these, but for now I've just stashed the contents of the MAC address
descriptor in the skb context block for later use. Also, because
fcoe_elsct_send() just passes control on to fc_elsct_send(), all transmits
still come through the normal frame_send() path.
3) The NPIV changes added a mutex hold in the keep alive sending, the lport
mutex is protecting the vport list. We can't take a mutex from a timer,
so move the FIP keep alive logic to the link work struct.

If we can find a type NETDEV_HW_ADDR_T_SAN mac address from the
corresponding netdev for a fcoe interface then sets up added the
fc->ctlr.spma flag and stores spma mode address in ctl_src_addr.
In case the spma flag is set then:-
1. Adds spma mode MAC address in ctl_src_addr as secondary
MAC address, the FLOGI for FIP and pre-FIP will go out
using this address.
2. Cleans up stored spma MAC address in ctl_src_addr in
fcoe_netdev_cleanup.
3. Sets up spma bit in fip_flags for FIP solicitations along
with exiting FPMA bit setting.
4. Initialize the FLOGI FIP MAC descriptor to stored spma
MAC address in ctl_src_addr. This is used as proposed
FCoE MAC address from initiator along with both SPMA
and FPMA bit set in FIP solicitation, in response the
switch may grant any FPMA or SPMA mode MAC address to
initiator.
Removes FIP descriptor type checking against ELS type
ELS_FLOGI in fcoe_ctlr_encaps to update a FIP MAC descriptor,
instead now checks against FIP_DT_FLOGI.
I've tested this with available FPMA-only FCoE switch but
since data_src_addr is updated using same old code for
both FPMA and SPMA modes with FIP or pre-FIP links, so added
SPMA mode will work with SPMA-only switch also provided that
switch grants a valid MAC address.

FIP is the new standard way to discover Fibre-Channel Forwarders (FCFs)
by sending solicitations and listening for advertisements from FCFs.
It also provides for keep-alives and period advertisements so that both
parties know they have connectivity. If the FCF loses connectivity to
the storage fabric, it can send a Link Reset to inform the E_node.
This version is also compatible with pre-FIP implementations, so no
configured selection between FIP mode and non-FIP mode is required.
We wait a couple seconds after sending the initial solicitation
and then send an old-style FLOGI. If we receive any FIP frames,
we use FIP only mode. If the old FLOGI receives a response,
we disable FIP mode. After every reset or link up, this
determination is repeated.

Moves only required code from fcoe_sw.c to libfcoe.c towards having
just one source file for fcoe module, this gets rid off default sw
transport code in a separate fcoe_sw.c file.
Very minor renaming along this move, dropped _sw_ or _SW_ use
in names and replaced them by _if_ as a auxiliary interface
functions. Now some of these funcs can be removed or merged with
other func after fcoe transport is gone, but that should be
in another patch to keep this patch simple.
Now the libfcoe.c file name for fcoe module doesn't go along well,
so the libfcoe.c file renaming to fcoe.c as the only single fcoe
module file is done in next patch to keep this patch clean

as to let LLD do clean up.
fc_fcp_ddp_setup()/fc_fcp_ddp_done() are added to setup and complete a ddped

This was causing some test apps to exit due to write failure under heavy

(fcoe_watchdog and fcoe_xmit) and then adding skb back into fcoe_pending_queue
up on a failed fcoe_start_io could change skb/tx frame order in

This patch allows only single context to pull skb from fcoe_pending_queue
at any time to prevent above described ordering issue/race by use of
fcoe_pending_queue_active flag.
This patch simplified fcoe_watchdog with modified fcoe_check_wait_queue by
use of FCOE_LOW_QUEUE_DEPTH instead previously used several conditionals
to clear and set lp->qfull.
I think FCOE_MAX_QUEUE_DEPTH with FCOE_LOW_QUEUE_DEPTH will work better
in re/setting lp->qfull and these could be fine tuned for performance.
