From Jake:
iflib_fl_setup calculates a suitable buffer size for the Rx mbufs based
on the isc_max_frame_size value that drivers setup. This calculation is
repeated by drivers when programming their hardware with the size of
each Rx buffer.
This can lead to a mismatch where the iflib mbuf size is different from
the expected size of the buffer as programmed by the hardware. This can
lead to unexpected results.
If iflib ever wants to support mbuf sizes larger than one page, every
driver must be updated to account for the new possible buffer sizes.
Fix this by calculating the mbuf size prior to calling IFDI_INIT, and
adding the iflib_get_rx_mbuf_sz function which will expose this value to
drivers, so that they do not repeat the same calculation.

This patch and commit message are based on r340256 created by Jacob Keller:
The iflib stack does not disable TSO automatically when TXCSUM is
disabled, instead assuming that the driver will correctly handle TSOs
even when CSUM_IP is not set.
This results in iflib calling ixgbe_isc_txd_encap with packets which have
CSUM_IP_TSO, but do not have CSUM_IP or CSUM_IP_TCP set. Because of
this, ixgbe_tx_ctx_setup will not setup the IPv4 checksum offloading.
This results in bad TSO packets being sent if a user disables TXCSUM
without disabling TSO.
Fix this by updating the ixgbe_tx_ctx_setup function to check both
CSUM_IP and CSUM_IP_TSO when deciding whether to enable checksums.
Once this is corrected, another issue for TSO packets is revealed. The
driver sets IFLIB_NEED_ZERO_CSUM in order to enable a work around that
causes the ip->sum field to be zero'd. This is necessary for ix
hardware to correctly perform TSOs.
However, if TXCSUM is disabled, then the work around is not enabled, as
CSUM_IP will not be set when the iflib stack checks to see if it should
clear the sum field.
Fix this by adding IFLIB_TSO_INIT_IP to the iflib flags for the ix and
ixv interface files.
Once both of these changes are made, the ix and ixv drivers should
correctly offload TSO packets when TSO offload is enabled, regardless
of whether TXCSUM is enabled or disabled.

In r341156 ("Fix first-packet completion", 2018-11-28) a hack to work
around a delta calculation determining how many descriptors were used
was added to ixl_isc_tx_credits_update_dwb.
The same fix was also applied to the em and igb drivers in r340310, and
to ix in r341156.
The hack checked the case where prev and cur were equal, and then added
one. This works, because by the time we do the delta check, we already
know there is at least one packet available, so the delta should be at
least one.
However, it's not a complete fix, and as indicated by the comment is
really a hack to work around the real bug.
The real problem is that the first time that we transmit a packet,
tx_cidx_processed will be set to point to the start of the ring.
Ultimately, the credits_update function expects it to point to the
*last* descriptor that was processed. Since we haven't yet processed any
descriptors, pointing it to 0 results in this incorrect calculation.
Fix the initialization code to have it point to the end of the ring
instead. One way to think about this, is that we are setting the value
to be one prior to the first available descriptor.
Doing so, corrects the delta calculation in all cases. The original fix
only works if the first packet has exactly one descriptor. Otherwise, we
will report 1 less than the correct value.
As part of this fix, also update the MPASS assertions to match the real
expectations. First, ensure that prev is not equal to cur, since this
should never happen. Second, remove the assertion about prev==0 || delta
!= 0. It looks like that originated from when the em driver was
converted to iflib. It seems like it was supposed to ensure that delta
was non-zero. However, because we originally returned 0 delta for the
first calculation, the "prev == 0" was tacked on.
Instead, replace this with a check that delta is greater than zero,
after the correction necessary when the ring pointers wrap around.
This new solution should fix the same bug as r341156 did, but in a more
robust way.

- Ever since the workaround for the silicon bug of TSO4 causing MAC hangs
was committed in r295133, CSUM_TSO always got disabled unconditionally
by em(4) on the first invocation of em_init_locked(). However, even with
that problem fixed, it turned out that for at least e. g. 82579 not all
necessary TSO workarounds are in place, still causing MAC hangs even at
Gigabit speed. Thus, for stable/11, TSO usage was deliberately disabled
in r323292 (r323293 for stable/10) for the EM-class by default, allowing
users to turn it on if it happens to work with their particular EM MAC
in a Gigabit-only environment.
In head, the TSO workaround for speeds other than Gigabit was lost with
the conversion to iflib(9) in r311849 (possibly along with another one
or two TSO workarounds). Yet at the same time, for EM-class MACs TSO4
got enabled by default again, causing device hangs. Therefore, change the
default for this hardware class back to have TSO4 off, allowing users
to turn it on manually if it happens to work in their environment as
we do in stable/{10,11}. An alternative would be to add a whitelist of
EM-class devices where TSO4 actually is reliable with the workarounds in
place, but given that the advantage of TSO at Gigabit speed is rather
limited - especially with the overhead of these workarounds -, that's
really not worth it. [1]
This change includes the addition of an isc_capabilities to struct
if_softc_ctx so iflib(9) can also handle interface capabilities that
shouldn't be enabled by default which is used to handle the default-off
capabilities of e1000 as suggested by shurd@ and moving their handling
from em_setup_interface() to em_if_attach_pre() accordingly.
- Although 82543 support TSO4 in theory, the former lem(4) didn't have
support for TSO4, presumably because TSO4 is even more broken in the
LEM-class of MACs than the later EM ones. Still, TSO4 for LEM-class
devices was enabled as part of the conversion to iflib(9) in r311849,
causing device hangs. So revert back to the pre-r311849 behavior of
not supporting TSO4 for LEM-class at all, which includes not creating
a TSO DMA tag in iflib(9) for devices not having IFCAP_TSO4 set. [2]
- In fact, the FreeBSD TCP stack can handle a TSO size of IP_MAXPACKET
(65535) rather than FREEBSD_TSO_SIZE_MAX (65518). However, the TSO
DMA must have a maxsize of the maximum TSO size plus the size of a
VLAN header for software VLAN tagging. The iflib(9) converted em(4),
thus, first correctly sets scctx->isc_tx_tso_size_max to EM_TSO_SIZE
in em_if_attach_pre(), but later on overrides it with IP_MAXPACKET
in em_setup_interface() (apparently, left-over from pre-iflib(9)
times). So remove the later and correct iflib(9) to correctly cap
the maximum TSO size reported to the stack at IP_MAXPACKET. While at
it, let iflib(9) use if_sethwtsomax*().
This change includes the addition of isc_tso_max{seg,}size DMA engine
constraints for the TSO DMA tag to struct if_shared_ctx and letting
iflib_txsd_alloc() automatically adjust the maxsize of that tag in case
IFCAP_VLAN_MTU is supported as requested by shurd@.
- Move the if_setifheaderlen(9) call for adjusting the maximum Ethernet
header length from {ixgbe,ixl,ixlv,ixv,em}_setup_interface() to iflib(9)
so adjustment is automatically done in case IFCAP_VLAN_MTU is supported.
As a consequence, this adjustment now is also done in case of bnxt(4)
which missed it previously.
- Move the reduction of the maximum TSO segment count reported to the
stack by the number of m_pullup(9) calls (which in the worst case,
can add another mbuf and, thus, the requirement for another DMA
segment each) in the transmit path for performance reasons from
em_setup_interface() to iflib_txsd_alloc() as these pull-ups are now
done in iflib_parse_header() rather than in the no longer existing
em_xmit(). Moreover, this optimization applies to all drivers using
iflib(9) and not just em(4); all in-tree iflib(9) consumers still
have enough room to handle full size TSO packets. Also, reduce the
adjustment to the maximum number of m_pullup(9)'s now performed in
iflib_parse_header().
- Prior to the conversion of em(4)/igb(4)/lem(4) and ixl(4) to iflib(9)
in r311849 and r335338 respectively, these drivers didn't enable
IFCAP_VLAN_HWFILTER by default due to VLAN events not being passed
through by lagg(4). With iflib(9), IFCAP_VLAN_HWFILTER was turned on
by default but also lagg(4) was fixed in that regard in r203548. So
just remove the now redundant and defunct IFCAP_VLAN_HWFILTER handling
in {em,ixl,ixlv}_setup_interface().
- Nuke other redundant IFCAP_* setting in {em,ixl,ixlv}_setup_interface()
which is (more completely) already done in {em,ixl,ixlv}_if_attach_pre()
now.
- Remove some redundant/dead setting of scctx->isc_tx_csum_flags in
em_if_attach_pre().
- Remove some IFCAP_* duplicated either directly or indirectly (e. g.
via IFCAP_HWCSUM) in {EM,IGB,IXL}_CAPS.
- Don't bother to fiddle with IFCAP_HWSTATS in ixgbe(4)/ixgbev(4) as
iflib(9) adds that capability unconditionally.
- Remove some unused macros from em(4).
- Bump __FreeBSD_version as some of the above changes require the modules
of drivers using iflib(9) to be recompiled.

When ixgbe receives an interrupt indicating that a new optical module
may have been inserted, it discards all of its current media types
by calling ifmedia_removeall() and then creates a new set of media
types for the supported media on the new module. However,
ifmedia_removeall() was maintaining a pointer to whatever the
current media type was before the call to ifmedia_removealL().
The result of this was that any attempt to read the current media
type of the interface (e.g. via ifconfig) would return potentially
garbage data from free memory (or if one were particularly unlucky
on an architecture that does not malloc() from a direct map, page
fault the kernel).
Fix this by NULL'ing out the current media field in if_media.c,

connections greater than 16 per hardware receive ring, where 8 TCP

optimizing LRO wrapper will add CPU usage instead of reducing CPU

optimizing LRO wrapper needs to call "tcp_lro_queue_mbuf()" instead
of "tcp_lro_rx()" and "tcp_lro_flush_all()" instead of
