For debug-ports,there are two non-synchronized processes:
Speed-Auto-Negotiation and Link-Update-Status. The two
processes are towed by two different state machines.
Bond reads the speed when link up, but the speed maybe
not update the right value at that time.That make for bond's
wrong speed. Thus only one state machine should be used and
if phy_state_machine is used, it does not need to do
hns_nic_update_link_status().

When run ethtool cmd(ethtool -t ethx) again and again for a long
time, it will be probabilistically fail. The PHYs' registers may
be on different pages, so it must be switch to the right page
before setting PHYs' registers.
And __lb_up() calls phy_start() to startup the PHYs device, but
this function may change Copper Control Register(Page 0, Register 0)
to an other value. It would cause phy loopback test fail. if we
remove phy_start(), we have to remove the relative phy_stop(),
phy_disconnect() when doing phy loopback to keep the phy stay in
right status.

====================
net: dsa: mv88e6xxx: probe compatible
This patchset factorizes the legacy and new SMI probing and abstracts
the switch register accesses. This simplifies adding support for new
chips or alternative register accesses.
This will allow us to use a compatible chip info to describe how to
access the SMI device and its switch ID register at probe time.
For the legacy probe, we fix the compatible info to 88E6085. For the
MDIO probe, we will use the compatible info from the device node data.
All patches are reviewed.
Changes since v4:
- fix debug printing (was 'val' instead of '*val')
Changes since v3 [3]:
- better register access abstraction using the chip structure
Changes since v2 [2]:
- do not guess compatible model in legacy probe
- add low level SMI API using a chip structure
- allocate before probe and detection
- add 3 cosmetic patches
Changes since v1 [1]:
- merge style fix from Ben Dooks
- add Acked-by/Reviewed-by tags
- drop one compatible string per model
- detect the SMI device based on the compatible info
- add an SMI ops structure

When the SMI address of the switch chip is zero, the chip assumes to be
the only one on the SMI master bus and thus responds to all its known
SMI devices addresses (port registers, Global2, etc.)
When its SMI address is not zero, some chips (e.g. 88E6352) use an
indirect access through two SMI Command and Data registers.
Other models (e.g. 88E6060) using less than 16 internal SMI addresses
always use a direct access.
Add a capability flag to describe chips supporting the (indirect)
Multi-chip Addressing Mode, and a low-level API to access the registers
via SMI.
Other accesses (like Ethernet management frames) may be added later.

====================
ipv6: better traceroute support in sit and gre
In commit ca15a078bd90 ("sit: generate icmpv6 error when receiving icmpv4
error"), Oussama Ghorbel added minimal support for SIT tunnels to
generate ICMPv6 messages when receiving ICMPv4 messages.
This patch series extends this to GRE tunnels.
It also adds support for ICMPV6_TIME_EXCEED.
Partial support for RFC 4884 is added, to forward ICMP Multi-part
extensions eventually found in the ICMPv4 message.

When receiving an ICMPv4 message containing extensions as
defined in RFC 4884, and translating it to ICMPv6 at SIT
or GRE tunnel, we need some extra manipulation in order
to properly forward the extensions.
This patch only takes care of Time Exceeded messages as they
are the ones that typically carry information from various
routers in a fabric during a traceroute session.
It also avoids complex skb logic if the data_len is not
a multiple of 8.
RFC states :
The "original datagram" field MUST contain at least 128 octets.
If the original datagram did not contain 128 octets, the
"original datagram" field MUST be zero padded to 128 octets.
In practice routers use 128 bytes of original datagram, not more.
Initial translation was added in commit ca15a078bd90

There is no reason in rx_descs property because davinici_cpdma
driver splits pool of descriptors equally between tx and rx channels.
That is, if number of descriptors 256, 128 of them are for rx
channels. While receiving, the descriptor is freed to the pool and
then allocated with new skb. And if in DT the "rx_descs" is set to
64, then 128 - 64 = 64 descriptors are always in the pool and cannot
be used, for tx, for instance. It's not correct resource usage,
better to set it to half of pool, then the rx pool can be used in
full. It will not have any impact on performance, as anyway, the
"redundant" descriptors were unused.

IPv6 source address selection needs to consider the real egress route.
Similar to IPv4 implement a get_saddr6 method which is called if
source address has not been set. The get_saddr6 method does a full
lookup which means pulling a route from the VRF FIB table and properly
considering linklocal/multicast destination addresses. Lookup failures
(eg., unreachable) then cause the source address selection to fail
which gets propagated back to the caller.

====================
Future-proof tunnel offload handlers
These patches are meant to address two things. First we are currently
using the ndo_add/del_vxlan_port calls with VXLAN-GPE tunnels and we
cannot really support that as it is likely to cause more harm than
good since VXLAN-GPE can support tunnels without a MAC address on the
inner header.
As such we need to add a new offload to advertise this, but in doing so it
would mean introducing 3 new functions for the driver to request the ports,
and then for the tunnel to push the changes to add and delete the ports to
the device. However instead of taking that approach I think it would be
much better if we just made one common function for fetching the ports, and
provided a generic means to push the tunnels to the device. So in order to
make this work this patch set does several things.
First it merges the existing VXLAN and GENEVE functionality into one set of
functions and passes an enum in order to specify the type of tunnel we want
to offload. By doing this we only have to extend this enum in the future
if we want to add additional types.
Second it goes through the drivers replacing all of the tunnel specific
offload calls with implementations that support the generic calls so that
we can drop the VXLAN and GENEVE specific calls entirely.
Finally I go through in the last patch and replace the VXLAN specific
offload request that was being used for VXLAN-GPE with one that specifies
if we want to offload VXLAN or VXLAN-GPE so that the hardware can decide if
it can actually support it or not.
I also ended up with some minor clean-up built into the driver patches for
this. Most of it is to either fix misuse of build flags, specifying a type
to ignore instead of the type that should be used, or in the case of ixgbe
I actually moved a rtnl_lock/unlock in order to avoid taking it unless it
was actually needed.
v2:
I did my best to remove the word "offload" from any of the calls or
notifiers as this isn't really an offload. It
is a workaround for the fact that the drivers don't provide basic features
like CHECKSUM_COMPLETE. I also added a disclaimer to the section defining
the function prototypes explaining that these are essentially workarounds.
I ended up going through and stripping all of the VXLAN and GENEVE build
flags from the drivers. There isn't much point in carrying them. In
addition I dropped the use of the vxlan.h or geneve.h header files in favor
of udp_tunnel.h in the cases where a driver didn't need anything from
either of those headers.
I updated the tunnel add/del functions so that they pass a udp_tunnel_info
structure instead of a list of arguments. This way we should be able to
add additional information in the future with little impact on the other
drivers.
I updated bnxt so that it doesn't use a hard-coded port number for GENEVE.
I have been able to test mlx4e, mlx5e, and i40e and verified functionality
on these drivers. Though there are patches for the net tree I submitted
due to unrelated bugs I found in the mlx4e and i40e/i40evf drivers.
v3:
Fixed a typo that caused us to add geneve port when we should have been
deleting it.
Ended up dropping geneve and vxlan wrappers for
udp_tunnel_notify_rx_add/del_port and instead just called them directly.
Updated comments for functions to call out RTNL instead of port lock.
Updated patch description to remove changes that were moved into a second
patch.
Rebased on latest net-next to fix merge conflict on bnxt driver.
