Currently, mvneta_txq_bufs_free() calls mvneta_tx_done_policy() with
a non-null cause to retrieve the pointer to the next queue to process.
There are useless tests on the return queue number and on the pointer,
all of which are well defined within a known limited set. This code
path is fast, although not critical. Removing 3 tests here that the
compiler could not optimize (verified) is always desirable.

Right now the mvneta driver doesn't handle Tx IRQ, and relies on two
mechanisms to flush Tx descriptors : a flush at the end of mvneta_tx()
and a timer. If a burst of packets is emitted faster than the device
can send them, then the queue is stopped until next wake-up of the
timer 10ms later. This causes jerky output traffic with bursts and
pauses, making it difficult to reach line rate with very few streams.
A test on UDP traffic shows that it's not possible to go beyond 134
Mbps / 12 kpps of outgoing traffic with 1500-bytes IP packets. Routed
traffic tends to observe pauses as well if the traffic is bursty,
making it even burstier after the wake-up.
It seems that this feature was inherited from the original driver but
nothing there mentions any reason for not using the interrupt instead,
which the chip supports.
Thus, this patch enables Tx interrupts and removes the timer. It does
the two at once because it's not really possible to make the two
mechanisms coexist, so a split patch doesn't make sense.
First tests performed on a Mirabox (Armada 370) show that less CPU
seems to be used when sending traffic. One reason might be that we now
call the mvneta_tx_done_gbe() with a mask indicating which queues have
been done instead of looping over all of them.
The same UDP test above now happily reaches 987 Mbps / 87.7 kpps.
Single-stream TCP traffic can now more easily reach line rate. HTTP
transfers of 1 MB objects over a single connection went from 730 to
840 Mbps. It is even possible to go significantly higher (>900 Mbps)
by tweaking tcp_tso_win_divisor.

Marvell has not published the chip's datasheet yet, so it's very hard
to find the relevant bits to manipulate to change the IRQ behaviour.
Fortunately, these bits are described in the proprietary LSP patch set
which is publicly available here :
http://www.plugcomputer.org/downloads/mirabox/
So let's put them back in the driver in order to reduce the burden of
current and future maintenance.

Ben Hutchings attempted to propose a better fix consisting in using a
scheduled work for this, but while it fixed this panic, it caused other
random freezes and panics proving that the reset sequence in the driver
is unreliable and that additional fixes should be investigated.
When sending multiple streams over a link limited to 100 Mbps, Tx timeouts
happen from time to time, and the driver correctly recovers only when the
function is disabled.

Stats writers are mvneta_rx() and mvneta_tx(). They don't lock anything
when they update the stats, and as a result, it randomly happens that
the stats freeze on SMP if two updates happen during stats retrieval.
This is very easily reproducible by starting two HTTP servers and binding
each of them to a different CPU, then consulting /proc/net/dev in loops
during transfers, the interface should immediately lock up. This issue
also randomly happens upon link state changes during transfers, because
the stats are collected in this situation, but it takes more attempts to
reproduce it.
The comments in netdevice.h suggest using per_cpu stats instead to get
rid of this issue.
This patch implements this. It merges both rx_stats and tx_stats into
a single "stats" member with a single syncp. Both mvneta_rx() and
mvneta_rx() now only update the a single CPU's counters.
In turn, mvneta_get_stats64() does the summing by iterating over all CPUs
to get their respective stats.
With this change, stats are still correct and no more lockup is encountered.
Note that this bug was present since the first import of the mvneta
driver. It might make sense to backport it to some stable trees. If
so, it depends on "d33dc73 net: mvneta: increase the 64-bit rx/tx stats
out of the hot path".

...
In order to enable lockdep on seqcount/seqlock structures, we
must explicitly initialize any locks.
The u64_stats_sync structure, uses a seqcount, and thus we need
to introduce a u64_stats_init() function and use it to initialize
the structure.
This unfortunately adds a lot of fairly trivial initialization code
to a number of drivers. But the benefit of ensuring correctness makes
this worth while.
Because these changes are required for lockdep to be enabled, and the
changes are quite trivial, I've not yet split this patch out into 30-some
separate patches, as I figured it would be better to get the various
maintainers thoughts on how to best merge this change along with
the seqcount lockdep enablement.
Feedback would be appreciated!

The macros used for the various fields of the RX and TX descriptions
are currently declared next to those fields within the structure
definitions of the RX and TX descriptors.
However, in order to support big endian, we'll have to use the "swap
descriptors" features of the hardware, which swaps every byte within
each 64 bits word of the descriptors. This requires a separate
definition of the RX and TX descriptor structures for little and big
endian, as is done in the mv643xx_eth. Those macros can therefore no
longer be defined inside those structures.

This patch improves the logic used by the mvneta driver to find a MAC
address for a particular interface. Until now, it was only looking at
the Device Tree, and if no address was found, was falling back to
generating a random MAC address.
This patch adds the intermediate solution of reading the MAC address
from the hardware registers, in case it has been set by the
bootloader. So the order is now:
1) MAC address from the Device Tree
2) MAC address from the hardware registers
3) Random MAC address
This requires moving the MAC address initialization a little bit later
in the ->probe() code, because it now requires the hardware registers
to be remapped.

mvneta_tx() was using a static tx queue number causing crashes as
soon as a little bit of traffic was sent via the interface, because
it is normally expected that the same queue should be used as in
dev_queue_xmit().
As suggested by Ben Hutchings, let's use skb_get_queue_mapping() to
get the proper Tx queue number, and use alloc_etherdev_mqs() instead
of alloc_etherdev_mq() to create the queues.
Both my Mirabox and my OpenBlocks AX3 used to crash without this patch
and don't anymore with it. The issue appeared in 3.8 but became more
visible after the fix allowing GSO to be enabled.
Original work was done by Dmitri Epshtein and Thomas Petazzoni. I

mvneta_deinit() can be called from the ->probe() hook in the error
path, so it shouldn't be marked as __devexit. It fixes the following
section mismatch warning:
WARNING: vmlinux.o(.devinit.text+0x239c): Section mismatch in reference
from the function mvneta_probe() to the function .devexit.text:mvneta_deinit()
The function __devinit mvneta_probe() references
a function __devexit mvneta_deinit().

Now that the Armada 370/XP platform has gained proper integration with
the clock framework, we add clk support in the Marvell Armada 370/XP
Ethernet driver.
Since the existing Device Tree binding that exposes a
'clock-frequency' property has never been exposed in any stable kernel
release, we take the freedom of removing this property to replace it
with the standard 'clocks' clock pointer property.
The Device Tree binding documentation is updated accordingly.

As reported by checkpatch, the multiline comments for net/ and
drivers/net/ have a slightly different format than the one used in the
rest of the kernel, so we adjust our multiline comments accordingly.

This patch contains a new network driver for the network unit of the
ARM Marvell Armada 370 and the Armada XP. Both SoCs use the PJ4B
processor, a Marvell-developed ARM core that implements the ARMv7
instruction set.
Compared to previous ARM Marvell SoCs (Kirkwood, Orion, Discovery),
the network unit in Armada 370 and Armada XP is highly different. This
is the reason why this new 'mvneta' driver is needed, while the older
ARM Marvell SoCs use the 'mv643xx_eth' driver.
Here is an overview of the most important hardware changes that
require a new, specific, driver for the network unit of Armada 370/XP:
- The new network unit has a completely different design and layout
for the RX and TX descriptors. They are now organized as a simple
array (each RX and TX queue has base address and size of this
array) rather than a linked list as in the old SoCs.
- The new network unit has a different RXQ and TXQ management: this
management is done using special read/write counter registers,
while in the Old SocS, it was done using the Ownership bit in RX
and TX descriptors.
- The new network unit has different interrupt registers
- The new network unit way of cleaning of interrupts is not done by
writing to the cause register, but by updating per-queue counters
- The new network unit has different GMAC registers (link, speed,
duplex configuration) and different WRR registers.
- The new network unit has lots of new units like PnC (Parser and
Classifier), PMT, BM (Memory Buffer Management), xPON, and more.
The driver proposed in the current patch only handles the basic
features. Additional hardware features will progressively be supported
as needed.
