This patch introduces the first driver to benefit from the switchdev infrastructure and to implement newly introduced switch ndos. This is a driver for emulated switch chip implemented in qemu: https://github.com/sfeldma/qemu-rocker/ This patch is a result of joint work with Scott Feldman.

To allow brport device to return current brport flags set on port. Add returned flags to nested IFLA_PROTINFO netlink msg built in dflt getlink. With this change, netlink msg returned for bridge_getlink contains the port's offloaded flag settings (the port's SELF settings).

When the swdev device learns a new mac/vlan on a port, it sends some async notification to the driver and the driver installs an FDB in the device. To give a holistic system view, the learned mac/vlan should be reflected in the bridge's FBD table, so the user, using normal iproute2 cmds, can view what is currently learned by the device. This API on the bridge driver gives a way for the swdev driver to install an FBD entry in the bridge FBD table. (And remove one). This is equivalent to the device running these cmds: bridge fdb [add|del] <mac> dev <dev> vid <vlan id> master This patch needs some extra eyeballs for review, in paricular around the locking and contexts.

We do header check twice for a dodgy packet. One is done before macvlan_start_xmit(), another is done before lower device's ndo_start_xmit(). The first one seems redundant so this patch tries to delay header check until a packet reaches its lower device (or macvtap) through always enabling NETIF_F_GSO_ROBUST for macvlan device.

There is a potential race when probing the TLB in TLBL/M/S exception handlers for a matching entry. Between the time we hit a TLBL/S/M exception and the time we get to execute the TLBP instruction, the HTW may have replaced the TLB entry we are interested in hence the TLB probe may fail. However, in the existing handlers, we never checked the status of the TLBP (ie check the result in the C0/Index register). We fix this by adding such a check when the core implements the HTW. If we couldn't find a matching entry, we return back and try again.

We cannot restart cacheflush safely if a process provides user-defined signal handler and signal is pending. In this case -EINTR is returned and it is expected that process re-invokes syscall. However, there are a few problems with that: * looks like nobody bothers checking return value from cacheflush * but if it did, we don't provide the restart address for that, so the process has to use the same range again * ...and again, what might lead to looping forever So, remove cacheflush restarting code and terminate cache flushing as early as fatal signal is pending.

Thomas Petazzoni authored
Under extremely rare conditions, in an MPCore node consisting of at least 3 CPUs, two CPUs trying to perform a STREX to data on the same shared cache line can enter a livelock situation. This patch enables the HW mechanism that overcomes the bug. This fixes the incorrect setup of the STREX backoff delay bit due to a wrong description in the specification. Note that enabling the STREX backoff delay mechanism is done by leaving the bit *cleared*, while the bit was currently being set by the proc-v7.S code.
