Driver can provide a function to be called to log MCDI
requests and responses to help with debugging.
Solarflare netlogdecode cross-platform tool may be used
to decode these logs.
EFSYS_OPT_MCDI_LOGGING should be enabled to use it.

Implement interface to talk to NIC management CPU. Provide
helpers to fill in MCDI requests, execute it and process
received response.
MCDI request is prepared in either PCI BAR mapped memory
(SFN5xxx/SFN6xxx) or DMA-mapped memory (SFN7xxx/SFN8xxx) and,
doorbell is pressed (memory-mapped register) to execute it.
Events about MCDI completion are delivered to house-keeping
event queue, but usage of these events is optional and MCDI
buffer may be simply polled waiting for completion
indication set.

The header defines data interface between host CPU and NIC
management CPU.
The header is automatically generated from firmware sources.
MCDI is used on NIC control path (configuration,
event/transmit/receive queues setup and teardown etc), but
not used on data path.

Filtering capabilities depend on NIC family and used firmware
variant. Provided API allows to get supported filter types
(in a priority order), add/delete individual filters and
restore entire filter table after, for example, NIC management
CPU reboot.
Rx filters allow to redirect matching flow to specified Rx queue.
Tx filters allow to control generated traffic (e.g. to implement
virtual function anti-spoofing control).
EFSYS_OPT_FILTER should be enabled to use it. It is required
for SFN7xxx and SFN8xxx adapter families support.

libefx is a platform-independent library to implement drivers
for Solarflare network adapters. It provides unified adapter
family independent interface (if possible).
Driver must provide efsys.h header which defines options
(EFSYS_OPT_*) to be used and macros/functions to allocate
memory, read/write DMA-mapped memory, read/write PCI BAR
space, locks, barriers etc.
efx.h and efx_types.h provide external interfaces intended
to be used by drivers. Other header files are internal.
