net: provide generic busy polling to all NAPI drivers

NAPI drivers no longer need to observe a particular protocol
to benefit from busy polling (CONFIG_NET_RX_BUSY_POLL=y)

napi_hash_add() and napi_hash_del() are automatically called
from core networking stack, respectively from
netif_napi_add() and netif_napi_del()

This patch depends on free_netdev() and netif_napi_del() being
called from process context, which seems to be the norm.

Drivers might still prefer to call napi_hash_del() on their
own, since they might combine all the rcu grace periods into
a single one, knowing their NAPI structures lifetime, while
core networking stack has no idea of a possible combining.

Once this patch proves to not bring serious regressions,
we will cleanup drivers to either remove napi_hash_del()
or provide appropriate rcu grace periods combining.

The

ixgbe: Limit lowest interrupt rate for adaptive interrupt moderation to 12K

This patch updates the lowest limit for adaptive interrupt interrupt
moderation to roughly 12K interrupts per second.

The way I came about reaching 12K as the desired interrupt rate is by
testing with UDP flows. Specifically I had a simple test that ran a
netperf UDP_STREAM test at varying sizes. What I found was as the packet
sizes increased the performance fell steadily behind until we were only
able to receive at ~4Gb/s with a message size of 65507. A bit of digging
found that we were dropping packets for the socket in the network stack,
and looking at things further what I found was I could solve it by increasing
the interrupt rate, or increasing the rmem_default/rmem_max. What I found was
that when the interrupt coalescing resulted in more data being processed
per interrupt than could be stored in the socket buffer we started losing
packets and the performance dropped. So I reached 12K based on the
following math.

rmem_default = 212992
skb->truesize = 2994
212992 / 2994 = 71.14 packets to fill the buffer

packet rate at 1514 packet size is 812744pps
71.14 / 812744 = 87.9us to fill socket buffer

From there it was just a matter of choosing the interrupt rate and
providing a bit of wiggle room which is why I decided to go with 12K
interrupts per second as that uses a value of 84us.

The data below is based on VM to VM over a direct assigned ixgbe interface.
The test run was:
netperf -H <ip> -t UDP_STREAM"

Socket Message Elapsed Messages CPU Service
Size Size Time Okay Errors Throughput Util Demand
bytes bytes secs # # 10^6bits/sec % SS us/KB
Before:
212992 65507 60.00 1100662 0 9613.4 10.89 0.557
212992 60.00 473474 4135.4 11.27 0.576

212992 65507 60.00 1100413 0 9611.2 10.73 0.549
212992 60.00 974132 8508.3 11.69 0.598

Using bare metal the data is similar but not as dramatic as the throughput
increases from about 8.5Gb/s to 9.5Gb/s.

ixgbe: Refactor busy poll socket code to address multiple issues

This change addresses several issues in the current ixgbe implementation of
busy poll sockets.

First was the fact that it was possible for frames to be delivered out of
order if they were held in GRO. This is addressed by flushing the GRO buffers
before releasing the q_vector back to the idle state.

The other issue was the fact that we were having to take a spinlock on
changing the state to and from idle. To resolve this I have replaced the
state value with an atomic and use atomic_cmpxchg to change the value from
idle, and a simple atomic set to restore it back to idle after we have
acquired it. This allows us to only use a locked operation on acquiring the
vector without a need for a locked operation to release it.

ixgbe: Define FCoE and Flow director limits much sooner to allow for changes

Instead of adjusting the FCoE and Flow director limits based on the number
of CPUs we can define them much sooner. This allows the user to come
through later and adjust them once we have updated the code to support the
set_channels ethtool operation.

I am still allowing for FCoE and RSS queues to be separated if the number
queues is less than the number of CPUs. This essentially treats the two
groupings like they are two separate traffic classes.

In addition I am changing the initialization to use the MAX_TX/RX_QUEUES
defines instead of trying to compute the value as it will be possible in
upcoming patches for the user to request the maximum number of queues.

I have also updated things so that the upper limit on queues is exactly 63
instead of allowing it to go up to 64. The reason for this change is to
address the fact thqt the driver only supports up to 63 queue vectors since
the hardware supports 64 MSI-X vectors, but one must be reserved for "other"
causes.

ixgbe: fix default setting of TXDCTL.WTHRESH

The q_vector->itr check in ixgbe_configure_tx_ring() was done prior to it
being set, which resulted in TXDCTL.WTHRESH always being set to 1 on driver
load, while consequent resets would set it to 8.

This patch moves the setting of q_vector->itr in ixgbe_alloc_q_vector() to
make sure that TXDCTL.WTHRESH is set to 8 by default.

ixgbe: Initialize q_vector cpu and affinity masks correctly

When enabling DCB the rings belonging to a q_vector on CPU 0 were not
reinitializing their DCA registers. Upon closer inspection the issue was
that the q_vector CPU variable was left at 0 resulting in the driver not
updating the DCA registers.

In order to guarantee the DCA registers will be updated I am adding a
couple line change so that we initialize the CPU variable to -1 which will
force a DCA update the first time an interrupt fires on that q_vector.

In addition we were setting the CPU affinity hint to all CPUs when we were
not specifying a CPU. Instead we should leave it as all zeros to avoid any
possible confusion about the fact that we shouldn't be giving a hint.

ixgbe: Use 1TC DCB instead of disabling DCB for MSI and legacy interrupts

This change makes it so that we can use 1TC DCB in the case of MSI and
legacy interrupts. The advantage to this is that it allows us to fully
support FCoE w/ DCB instead of having to drop to link flow control only
when using these interrupt modes.

ixgbe: Fix handling of FDIR_HASH flag

This change makes it so that we can use the atr_sample_rate to determine if
we are capable of supporting ATR. The advantage to this approach is that it
allows us to now determine the setting of the IXGBE_FLAG_FDIR_HASH_CAPABLE
based on the queueing scheme, instead of the queueing scheme being based on
the flag.

Using this approach there are essentially 5 conditions that must be checked
prior to trying to enable ATR:
1. Is SR-IOV disabled?
2. Are the number of TCs <= 1?
3. Is RSS queueing limit greater than 1?
4. Is atr_sample_rate set?
5. Is Flow Director perfect filtering disabled?

If any of these conditions are enabled they should disable ATR filtering.
Note that in the case of conditions 1 through 4 being met we will set
things up for ATR queueing, however if test 5 fails we will still leave the
queues allocated for use by perfect filters. The reason for this is to
allow for us to switch back and forth between ntuple and ATR without
needing to reallocate the descriptor rings.
