There is a long-standing problem with the packet-timestamp matching in the driver. When a PTP packet is received by the MC, the FPGA timestamps the packet and the MC sends the timestamp and 6 bytes of the UUID to the driver. The driver then matches the timestamp against received packets using the same 6 bytes of UUID. The problem comes from the choice of which 6 bytes to use. The PTP spec is slightly contradictory and misleading in one of the two places where the UUIDs are discussed. From section 7.2.2.2 of the spec, a PTPD2 UUID can be either a EUI-64 or a EUI-64 constructed from a EUI-48. The typical ethernet based implementation uses a EUI-64 constructed from a EUI-48. This works by taking the first 3 bytes of the MAC address of the NIC being used for PTP (the OUI), then inserting 0xFF, 0xFE, then taking the last 3 bytes of the MAC address giving MAC[0], MAC[1], MAC[2], 0xFF, 0xFE, MAC[3], MAC[4], MAC[5] The current MC firmware and driver discard the first two bytes of this UUID and packets are matched against timestamps using bytes 2 to 7 so there is a small risk that in a deployment of Solarflare PTP NICs used with other vendors NICs, that a PTP packet could be matched against the wrong timestamp. This applies to all other organisations whose third byte of the OUI is 0x53. It's a long list but I notice that it includes Cisco. The necessary modifications to use bytes 0-2 and 5-7 of the UUID to match against are quite small but introduce incompatibility between older version of the firmware and driver. When PTP is enabled via SO_TIMESTAMPING specifying PTP V2, the driver will try to enable PTP in the firmware using the enhanced mode (above). If the firmware returns an error, the driver will enable PTP in the firmware using the old mode.

HTB uses an internal pfifo queue, which limit is not reported to userland tools (tc), and value inherited from device tx_queue_len at setup time. Introduce TCA_HTB_DIRECT_QLEN attribute to allow finer control. Remove two obsolete pr_err() calls as well.

RX DMA buffers start at an offset of EFX_PAGE_IP_ALIGN bytes from the start of a cache line. This offset obviously needs to be included in the virtual address, but this was missed in commit b590ace0 ('sfc: Fix efx_rx_buf_offset() in the presence of swiotlb') since EFX_PAGE_IP_ALIGN is equal to 0 on both x86 and powerpc.

efx_device_detach_sync() locks all TX queues before marking the device detached and thus disabling further TX scheduling. But it can still be interrupted by TX completions which then result in TX scheduling in soft interrupt context. This will deadlock when it tries to acquire a TX queue lock that efx_device_detach_sync() already acquired. To avoid deadlock, we must use netif_tx_{,un}lock_bh().

We support DSCR (Data Stream Control Register) so we should make sure we set it in the FSCR (Facility Status & Control Register) incase some firmwares don't set it.

Currently we use the link register to branch up high in the early MMU on syscall entry path. Unfortunately, this trashes the link stack as the address we are going to is not associated with the earlier mflr. This patch simply converts us to used the count register (volatile over syscalls anyway) instead. This is much better at predicting in this scenario and doesn't trash link stack causing a bunch of additional branch mispredicts later.

virtio_rng feeds the randomness buffer handed by the core directly into the scatterlist, since commit bb347d98. However, if CONFIG_HW_RANDOM=m, the static buffer isn't a linear address (at least on most archs). We could fix this in virtio_rng, but it's actually far easier to just do it in the core as virtio_rng would have to allocate a buffer every time (it doesn't know how much the core will want to read).
