When link_active_on_if_down flag is disabled and link is brought down

Doing a 'dd' over iscsi will reliably cause stalls. Tx
cleaning _should_ reliably happen as data is sent.
However, currently if the transmit queue fills it will
wait until the iflib timer (hz/2) runs.
This change causes the the tx taskq thread to be run
if there are completed descriptors.
While here:
- make timer interrupt delay a sysctl
- simplify txd_db_check handling
- comment on INTR types
Background on the change:
Initially doorbell updates were minimized by only writing to the register
on every fourth packet. If txq_drain would return without writing to the
doorbell it scheduled a callout on the next tick to do the doorbell write
to ensure that the write otherwise happened "soon". At that time a sysctl
was added for users to avoid the potential added latency by simply writing
to the doorbell register on every packet. This worked perfectly well for
e1000 and ixgbe ... and appeared to work well on ixl. However, as it
turned out there was a race to this approach that would lockup the ixl MAC.
It was possible for a lower producer index to be written after a higher one.
On e1000 and ixgbe this was harmless - on ixl it was fatal. My initial
response was to add a lock around doorbell writes - fixing the problem but
adding an unacceptable amount of lock contention.
The next iteration was to use transmit interrupts to drive delayed doorbell
writes. If there were no packets in the queue all doorbell writes would be
immediate as the queue started to fill up we could delay doorbell writes
further and further. At the start of drain if we've cleaned any packets we
know we've moved the state machine along and we write the doorbell (an
obvious missing optimization was to skip that doorbell write if db_pending
is zero). This change required that tx interrupts be scheduled periodically
as opposed to just when the hardware txq was full. However, that just leads
to our next problem.
Initially dedicated msix vectors were used for both tx and rx. However, it
was often possible to use up all available vectors before we set up all the
queues we wanted. By having rx and tx share a vector for a given queue we
could halve the number of vectors used by a given configuration. The problem
here is that with this change only e1000 passed the necessary value to have
the fast interrupt drive tx when appropriate.

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.

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.

From Jake:
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 ixl_isc_txd_encap with packets which have
CSUM_IP_TSO, but do not have CSUM_IP or CSUM_IP_TCP set. Because of
this, ixl_tx_setup_offload 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 ixl_tx_setup_offload function to check both
CSUM_IP and CSUM_IP_TSO when deciding whether to enable IPv4 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 ixl
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 iavf and
ixl interface files.
It is uncertain if the hardware needs IFLIB_NEED_ZERO_CSUM for any other
case besides TSO, so leave that flag assigned. It may be worth
investigating to see if this work around flag could be disabled in
a future change.
Once both of these changes are made, the ixl driver should correctly
offload TSO packets when TSO4 offload is enabled, regardless of whether
TXCSUM is enabled or disabled.

- 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

risk of running out of configuration space.
A new NIOCCTRL ioctl has been added to handle all the requests of the
new control API, which cover all the functionalities so far supported.
The netmap API bumps from 11 to 12 with this patch. Full backward
compatibility is provided for the old control command (NIOCREGIF), by
means of a new netmap_legacy module. Many parts of the old netmap.h
header has now been moved to netmap_legacy.h (included by netmap.h).

This fixes 32-bit compat (no ioctl command defintions are required
as struct ifreq is the same size). This is believed to be sufficent to
fully support ifconfig on 32-bit systems.

Uses of mallocarray(9).
The use of mallocarray(9) has rocketed the required swap to build FreeBSD.
This is likely caused by the allocation size attributes which put extra pressure
on the compiler.
Given that most of these checks are superfluous we have to choose better
where to use mallocarray(9). We still have more uses of mallocarray(9) but
hopefully this is enough to bring swap usage to a reasonable level.
