====================
nfp: implement firmware loading policy

Dirk says:

This series adds configuration capabilities to the firmware loading policy of
the NFP driver.

NFP firmware loading is controlled via three HWinfo keys which can be set per
device: 'abi_drv_reset', 'abi_drv_load_ifc' and 'app_fw_from_flash'.
Refer to patch #11 for more detail on how these control the firmware loading.

In order to configure the full extend of FW loading policy, a new devlink
parameter has been introduced, 'reset_dev_on_drv_probe', which controls if the
driver should reset the device when it's probed. This, in conjunction with the
existing 'fw_load_policy' (extended to include a 'disk' option) provides the
means to tweak the NFP HWinfo keys as required by users.

Patches 1 and 2 adds the devlink modifications and patches 3 through 9 adds the
support into the NFP driver. Furthermore, the last 2 patches are documentation
only.

v2:
  Renamed all 'reset_dev_on_drv_probe' defines the same as the devlink parameter
  name (Jiri)

+Overview
+========
+
+This driver supports Netronome's line of Flow Processor devices,
+including the NFP4000, NFP5000, and NFP6000 models, which are also
+incorporated in the company's family of Agilio SmartNICs. The SR-IOV
+physical and virtual functions for these devices are supported by
+the driver.
+
+Acquiring Firmware
+==================
+
+The NFP4000 and NFP6000 devices require application specific firmware
+to function.  Application firmware can be located either on the host file system
+or in the device flash (if supported by management firmware).
+
+Firmware files on the host filesystem contain card type (`AMDA-*` string), media
+config etc.  They should be placed in `/lib/firmware/netronome` directory to
+load firmware from the host file system.
+
+Firmware for basic NIC operation is available in the upstream
+`linux-firmware.git` repository.
+
+Firmware in NVRAM
+-----------------
+
+Recent versions of management firmware supports loading application
+firmware from flash when the host driver gets probed.  The firmware loading
+policy configuration may be used to configure this feature appropriately.
+
+Devlink or ethtool can be used to update the application firmware on the device
+flash by providing the appropriate `nic_AMDA*.nffw` file to the respective
+command.  Users need to take care to write the correct firmware image for the
+card and media configuration to flash.
+
+Available storage space in flash depends on the card being used.
+
+Dealing with multiple projects
+------------------------------
+
+NFP hardware is fully programmable therefore there can be different
+firmware images targeting different applications.
+
+When using application firmware from host, we recommend placing
+actual firmware files in application-named subdirectories in
+`/lib/firmware/netronome` and linking the desired files, e.g.::
+
+    $ tree /lib/firmware/netronome/
+    /lib/firmware/netronome/
+    ├── bpf
+    │   ├── nic_AMDA0081-0001_1x40.nffw
+    │   └── nic_AMDA0081-0001_4x10.nffw
+    ├── flower
+    │   ├── nic_AMDA0081-0001_1x40.nffw
+    │   └── nic_AMDA0081-0001_4x10.nffw
+    ├── nic
+    │   ├── nic_AMDA0081-0001_1x40.nffw
+    │   └── nic_AMDA0081-0001_4x10.nffw
+    ├── nic_AMDA0081-0001_1x40.nffw -> bpf/nic_AMDA0081-0001_1x40.nffw
+    └── nic_AMDA0081-0001_4x10.nffw -> bpf/nic_AMDA0081-0001_4x10.nffw
+
+    3 directories, 8 files
+
+You may need to use hard instead of symbolic links on distributions
+which use old `mkinitrd` command instead of `dracut` (e.g. Ubuntu).
+
+After changing firmware files you may need to regenerate the initramfs
+image.  Initramfs contains drivers and firmware files your system may
+need to boot.  Refer to the documentation of your distribution to find
+out how to update initramfs.  Good indication of stale initramfs
+is system loading wrong driver or firmware on boot, but when driver is
+later reloaded manually everything works correctly.
+
+Selecting firmware per device
+-----------------------------
+
+Most commonly all cards on the system use the same type of firmware.
+If you want to load specific firmware image for a specific card, you
+can use either the PCI bus address or serial number.  Driver will print
+which files it's looking for when it recognizes a NFP device::
+
+    nfp: Looking for firmware file in order of priority:
+    nfp:  netronome/serial-00-12-34-aa-bb-cc-10-ff.nffw: not found
+    nfp:  netronome/pci-0000:02:00.0.nffw: not found
+    nfp:  netronome/nic_AMDA0081-0001_1x40.nffw: found, loading...
+
+In this case if file (or link) called *serial-00-12-34-aa-bb-5d-10-ff.nffw*
+or *pci-0000:02:00.0.nffw* is present in `/lib/firmware/netronome` this
+firmware file will take precedence over `nic_AMDA*` files.
+
+Note that `serial-*` and `pci-*` files are **not** automatically included
+in initramfs, you will have to refer to documentation of appropriate tools
+to find out how to include them.
+
+Firmware loading policy
+-----------------------
+
+Firmware loading policy is controlled via three HWinfo parameters
+stored as key value pairs in the device flash:
+
+app_fw_from_flash
+    Defines which firmware should take precedence, 'Disk' (0), 'Flash' (1) or
+    the 'Preferred' (2) firmware. When 'Preferred' is selected, the management
+    firmware makes the decision over which firmware will be loaded by comparing
+    versions of the flash firmware and the host supplied firmware.
+    This variable is configurable using the 'fw_load_policy'
+    devlink parameter.
+
+abi_drv_reset
+    Defines if the driver should reset the firmware when
+    the driver is probed, either 'Disk' (0) if firmware was found on disk,
+    'Always' (1) reset or 'Never' (2) reset. Note that the device is always
+    reset on driver unload if firmware was loaded when the driver was probed.
+    This variable is configurable using the 'reset_dev_on_drv_probe'
+    devlink parameter.
+
+abi_drv_load_ifc
+    Defines a list of PF devices allowed to load FW on the device.
+    This variable is not currently user configurable.
