It used to be EXPORTed, but then EXPORT usage was cleaned up
(in 2012), without noticing that the function has no users at all
(and curiously, never had any users).
Delete it.
While at it, remove non-static "inline" hints on nearby functions:
these hints don't work across compilation units anyway,
and these functions are not used in their .c file, thus they are
never inlined. IOW: "inline" here does not help in any way.

ip2me:
To instruct HW to send trapped ip2me traffic to kernel, we have to add
this trap. Selection ip2me traffic is introduced later on in this set.
ARPs:
We are going to stop flooding to CPU port when netdev isn't bridged and
only get packets destined to the netdev's IP address and certain control
packets.
Add traps for ARP request (broadcast) and response (unicast) in order to
get these to the CPU and resolve neighbours.
host miss:
If a packet is routed through a directly connected route and its
destination IP is not in the device's neighbour table, then we need to
trap it to CPU. This will cause the host to resolve the MAC of the
neighbour, which will be eventually programmed to the device's table.

When removing packet traps we should use action 'discard' instead of
'forward', as some trap IDs we'll add cannot be configured with the
later. However, result is the same, as packets are not trapped to the
CPU.
In the future we will be able to reverse the operation properly by
detaching the trap group from the CPU.

When enabling the router in the device we will represent L3 netdevs
using router interfaces (RIFs). These will be specified whenever
programming routes or neighbours on the netdev.
Introduce the basic RIF infrastructure which allows one to lookup a RIF
by its netdev. Later patches in the series will extend this, but the
basic routines are needed now in order to direct traffic to CPU.
Pointers to the RIF structs are stored in an array indexed by the RIF's
number. This will allow us to efficiently update the kernel's neighbour
table when regularly dumping the device's table.

During ports initialization a net device is registered for each
available port, which implies the port is usable. However, a port is
only usable after the different parts of the device (e.g. flooding,
buffers) are initialized. This is especially important now, when we must
initialize the router before the ports, as otherwise the device can't be
initialized.
Solve that by initializing the switch ports at the end of init sequence.
Also, remove an unnecessary warning about port up/down events, which
would otherwise be invoked whenever removing the driver, as ports are
removed before unregistering the listener for these events.

We are going to assign router interfaces (RIFs) to netdevs if an IPv4
address was assigned to them. If one was assigned to a port netdev, this
will translate to the PVID vPort being member in a RIF.
While it's possible for a LAG slave to have an IP address, we can't have
a vPort being member in two FIDs (assuming the LAG device will be
put in bridge / assigned an IP address).
Solve that by making the PVID vPort leave any FID it might be a member
in when joining / leaving LAG.
Note that the PVID vPort is the only vPort that can be present on the
port when it's put under LAG.

When VLAN devices are created on top of LAG, their underlying vPorts are
configured correctly with LAG membership.
However, the PVID vPort is implicit and already present when the port
netdev is put under LAG, so its LAG membership is never set. Set it
correctly when joining / leaving LAG.
This didn't matter until now, but we are going to introduce support for
router interfaces (RIFs), which need to take into account LAG membership.

When port isn't bridged it is still possible to invoke switchdev ops and
configure the device's VLAN filters.
However, this will require us to use different Router InterFaces (RIFs)
for the same netdev, instead of one per-netdev as with any other
configuration.
Taking the above into account and the fact that this functionality is
questionable with regards to the device's normal use-case, remove it and
instead return an error.

Port netdevs (e.g. swXpY) that are not bridged are represented in the
device using a vPort with VID=PVID=1 (the PVID vPort), as untagged
packets entering the switch are internally tagged with the PVID VLAN.
When these packets are routed through a different port netdev they
should egress untagged.
This wasn't a problem until now, as non-bridged traffic only originated
from the CPU, which transmits packets out of the port as-is.
When a vPort is created with VID 1 mark it as egress untagged.

Calling the firmware to do function reset on the PF will kill all the VFs.
To prevent that, we call function reset on the 1st PF open before any VF
can be activated. On subsequent PF opens (with possibly some active VFs),
a bit has been set and we'll skip the function reset. VF driver will
always do function reset on every open. If there is an AER event, we will

====================
Mellanox 100G SRIOV E-Switch offload and VF representors
We are happy to announce SRIOV E-Switch offload and VF netdev representors.
Or Gerlitz says:
Currently, the way SR-IOV embedded switches are dealt with in Linux is limited
in its expressiveness and flexibility, but this is not necessarily due to
hardware limitations. The kernel software model for controlling the SR-IOV
switch simply does not allow the configuration of anything more complex than
MAC/VLAN based forwarding.
Hence the benefits brought by SRIOV come at a price of management flexibility,
when compared to software virtual switches which are used in Para-Virtual (PV)
schemes and allow implementing complex policies and virtual topologies. Such
SW switching typically involved a complex per-packet processing within the host
kernel using subsystems such as TC, Bridge, Netfilter and Open-vswitch.
We'd like to change that and get the best of both worlds: the performance of SR-IOV
with the management flexibility of software switches. This will eventually include
a richer model for controlling the SR-IOV switch for flow-based switching and
tunneling. Under this model, the e-switch is configured dynamically and a fallback
to software exists in case the hardware is unable to offload all required flows.
This series from Hadar Hen-Zion and myself, is the 1st step in that direction,
specfically, it provides full control on the SRIOV embedded switching by host
software and paves the way to offload switching rules and polices with downstream
patches.
To allow for host based SW control on the SRIOV HW switch, we introduce per VF
representor host netdevice. The VF representor plays the same role as TAP devices
in PV setup. A packet send through the VF representor on the host arrives to
the VF, and a packet sent through the VF is received by its representor. The
administrator can hook the representor netdev into a kernel switching component.
Once they do that, packets from the VF are subject to steering (matching and
actions) of that software component."
Doing so indeed hurts the performance benefits of SRIOV as it forces all the
traffic to go through the hypervisor. However, this SW representation is what
would eventually allow us to introduce hybrid model, where we offload steering
for some of the VF/VM traffic to the HW while keeping other VM traffic to go
through the hypervisor. Examples for the latter are first packet of flows which
are needed for SW switches learning and/or matching against policy database or
types of traffic for which offloading is not desired or not supported by the
current HW eswitch generation.
The embedded switch is managed through a PCI device driver. As such, we introduce
a devlink/pci based scheme for setting the mode of the e-switch. The current mode
(where steering is done based on mac/vlan, etc) is referred to as "legacy" and the
new mode as "offloads".
For the mlx5 driver / ConnectX4 HW case, the VF representors implement a functional
subset of mlx5e Ethernet netdevices using their own profile. This design buys us robust
implementation with code reuse and sharing.
The representors are created by the host PCI driver when (1) in SRIOV and (2) the
e-switch is set to offloads mode. Currently, in mlx5 the e-switch management is done
through the PF vport (0) and hence the VF representors along with the existing PF
netdev which represents the uplink share the PCI PF device instance.
The series is built from two major components, the first relates to the e-switch
management and the second to VF representors.
We start with a refactoring that treats the existing SRIOV e-switch code as of operating
in legacy mode. Next, we add the code for the offloads mode which programs the e-switch
to operate in a way which serves for software based switching:
1. miss rule which matches all packets that do not match any HW other switching rule
and forwards them to the e-switch management port (0) for further processing.
2. infrastructure for send-to-vport rules which conceptually bypass other "normal"
steering rules which present at the e-switch datapath. Such rules apply only for packets
that originate in the e-switch manager vport (0).
Since all the VF reps run over the same e-switch port, we use more logic in the host PCI
driver to do HW steering of missed packets into the HW queue opened by a the respective VF
representor. Finally here, we add the devlink APIs to configure the e-switch mode.
The second part from Hadar starts with some refactoring work which allow for multiple
mlx5e NIC instances to be created over the same PCI function, use common resources
and avoid wrong loopbacks.
Next comes the heart of the change which is a profile definition which allow to practically
have both "conventional" mlx5e NIC use cases such as native mode (non SRIOV), VF, PF and VF
representor to share the Ethernet driver code. This is done by a small surgery that ended up
with few internal callbacks that should be implemented by a profile instance. The profile
for the conventional NIC is implemented, to preserve the existing functionality.
The last two patches add e-switch registration API for the VF representors and the
implementation of the VF representors netdevice profile. Being an mlx5e instance, the
VF representor uses HW send/recv queues, completions queues and such. It currently doesn't
support NIC offloads but some of them could be added later on. The VF representor has
switchdev ops, where currently the only supported API is the one to the HW ID,
which is needed to identify multiple representors belonging to the same e-switch.
The architecture + solution (software and firmware) work were done by a team consisting
of Ilya Lesokhin, Haggai Eran, Rony Efraim, Tal Anker, Natan Oppenheimer, Saeed Mahameed,
Hadar and Or, thanks you all!
v1 --> v2 fixes:
* removed unneeded variable (patch #3)
* removed unused value DEVLINK_ESWITCH_MODE_NONE (patch #8)
* changed the devlink mode name from "offloads" to "switchdev" which
better describes what are we referring here, using a known concept (patch #8)
* correctly refer to devlink e-switch modes (patch #10)
* use the correct mlx5e way to define the VF rep statistics (patch #16)
v2 --> v3 fixes:
* Rebased on top 6fde0e63eccb 'be2net: signedness bug in be_msix_enable()'
* Handled compilation error introduced by rebase on top "f5074d0ce2f8 Merge branch 'mlx5-100G-fixes'"

Implement the relevant profile functions to create mlx5e driver instance
serving as VF representor. When SRIOV offloads mode is enabled, each VF
will have a representor netdevice instance on the host.
To do that, we also export set of shared service functions from en_main.c,
such that they can be used by both NIC and repsresentors netdevs.
The newly created representor netdevice has a basic set of net_device_ops
which are the same ndo functions as the NIC netdevice and an ndo of it's
own for phys port name.
The profiling infrastructure allow sharing code between the NIC and the
vport representor even though the representor has only a subset of the
NIC functionality.
The VF reps and the PF which is used in that mode to represent the uplink,
expose switchdev ops. Currently the only op supposed is attr get for the
port parent ID which here serves to identify net-devices belonging to the
same HW E-Switch. Other than that, no offloading is implemented and hence
switching functionality is achieved if one sets SW switching rules, e.g
using tc, bridge or ovs.
Port phys name (ndo_get_phys_port_name) is implemented to allow exporting
to user-space the VF vport number and along with the switchdev port parent
id (phys_switch_id) enable a udev base consistent naming scheme:
SUBSYSTEM=="net", ACTION=="add", ATTR{phys_switch_id}=="<phys_switch_id>", \
ATTR{phys_port_name}!="", NAME="$PF_NIC$attr{phys_port_name}"
where phys_switch_id is exposed by the PF (and VF reps) and $PF_NIC is
the name of the PF netdevice.

Change the driver to mark each new created RQT (direct or indirect)
as "enabled". This behaviour is needed for introducing new mlx5e
instances which serve to represent SRIOV VFs.
The VF representors will have only one type of RQTs (direct).

The current refresh tirs self loopback mechanism, refreshes all the tirs
belonging to the same mlx5e instance to prevent self loopback by packets
sent over any ring of that instance. This mechanism relies on all the
tirs/tises of an instance to be created with the same transport domain
number (tdn).
Change the driver to refresh all the tirs created under the same tdn
regardless of which mlx5e netdev instance they belong to.
This behaviour is needed for introducing new mlx5e instances which serve
to represent SRIOV VFs. The representors and the PF share vport used for
E-Switch management, and we want to avoid NIC level HW loopback between
them, e.g when sending broadcast packets. To achieve that, both the
representors and the PF NIC will share the tdn.

Add the API to create send-to-vport e-switch rules of the form
packet meta-data :: send-queue-number == $SQN and source-vport == 0 --> $VPORT
These rules are to be used for a send-to-vport logic which conceptually bypasses
the "normal" steering rules currently present at the e-switch datapath.
Such rule should apply only for packets that originate in the e-switch manager
vport (0) and are sent for a given SQN which is used by a given VF representor
device, and hence the matching logic.

In the sriov offloads mode, packets that are not matched by any other
rule should be sent towards the e-switch manager for further processing.
Add such "miss" rule which matches ANY packet as the last rule in the
e-switch FDB and programs the HW to send the packet to vport 0 where
the e-switch manager runs.

Unlike the legacy mode, here, forwarding rules are not learned by the
driver per events on macs set by VFs/VMs into their vports, but rather
should be programmed by higher-level SW entities.
Saying that, still, in the offloads mode (SRIOV_OFFLOADS), two flow
groups are created by the driver for management (slow path) purposes:
The first group will be used for sending packets over e-switch vports
from the host OS where the e-switch management code runs, to be
received by VFs.
The second group will be used by a miss rule which forwards packets toward
the e-switch manager. Further logic will trap these packets such that
the receiving net-device as seen by the networking stack is the representor
of the vport that sent the packet over the e-switch data-path.

Define three modes for the SRIOV e-switch operation, none (SRIOV_NONE,
none of the VF vports are enabled), legacy (SRIOV_LEGACY, the current mode)
and sriov offloads (SRIOV_OFFLOADS). Currently, when in SRIOV, only the
legacy mode is supported, where steering rules are of the form:
destination mac --> VF vport
This patch does not change any functionality.
