e21bdfaa2c net/mlx4: fix queue index check on flow rules
Users are not prevented from creating flow rules targeting nonexistent
queues, which silently makes such rules drop-like.

While it can be thought as a feature, reporting an error instead is
actually far more useful in order to catch common mistakes.

a9b3568e73 net/mlx4: fix Rx after updating number of queues
When not in isolated mode, internal flow rules are automatically
maintained by the PMD to receive traffic according to global device
settings (MAC, VLAN, promiscuous mode and so on).

Since RSS support was added to the mix, it must also check whether Rx
queue configuration has changed when refreshing flow rules to prevent
the following from happening:

- With a smaller number of Rx queues, traffic is implicitly dropped
  since the existing RSS context cannot be re-applied.
- With a larger number of Rx queues, traffic remains balanced within the
  original (smaller) set of queues.

One workaround before this commit was to temporarily enter/leave
isolated mode to make it regenerate internal flow rules.

62e96ffb93 net/mlx4: fix no Rx interrupts
This commit addresses the issue of Rx interrupts support with
the new Rx datapath introduced in DPDK version 17.11.
In order to generate an Rx interrupt an event queue is armed with the
consumer index of the Rx completion queue. Since version 17.11 this
index is handled by the PMD so it is now the responsibility of the
PMD to write this value when enabling Rx interrupts.

a76bec521a net/mlx4: fix targetless internal rule creation
The corrupted code allowed to create internal rule with no any target
queue in case the rule creation occurred before queues creation.

For example, when user calls rte_eth_dev_default_mac_addr_set after
probe and before dev_configure, mlx4 fails because the RSS queue number
was 0.

The fix prevents internal rules creation before queues creation based on
future creation before traffic start.

5697a41421 net/mlx4: relax Rx queue configuration order
Various hardware limitations apply to RSS indirection tables, one of
them being they must be an exact 1:1 mapping of the configured Rx queue
indices.

While this restriction is enforced when creating RSS flow rules, it is
not the case when Rx queues themselves are created; underlying WQ
numbers are assigned in turn, not according to queue index.

Applications such as l3fwd-power that create Rx queues from highest to
lowest index (or any other non-sequential order) thus fail to get a
working RSS context.

This commit postpones WQ initialization to dev_start(), once all Rx
queues are configured in order to address this issue.

078b8b452e net/mlx4: add RSS flow rule action support
This patch dissociates single-queue indirection tables and hash QP objects
from Rx queue structures to relinquish their control to users through the
RSS flow rule action, while simultaneously allowing multiple queues to be
associated with RSS contexts.

Flow rules share identical RSS contexts (hashed fields, hash key, target
queues) to save on memory and other resources. The trade-off is some added
complexity due to reference counters management on RSS contexts.

The QUEUE action is re-implemented on top of an automatically-generated
single-queue RSS context.

The following hardware limitations apply to RSS contexts:

- The number of queues in a group must be a power of two.
- Queue indices must be consecutive, for instance the [0 1 2 3] set is
  allowed, however [3 2 1 0], [0 2 1 3] and [0 0 1 1 2 3 3 3] are not.
- The first queue of a group must be aligned to a multiple of the context
  size, e.g. if queues [0 1 2 3 4] are defined globally, allowed group
  combinations are [0 1] and [2 3]; groups [1 2] and [3 4] are not
  supported.
- RSS hash key, while configurable per context, must be exactly 40 bytes
  long.
- The only supported hash algorithm is Toeplitz.

Work queues (WQs) are lower-level than standard queue pairs (QPs). They are
dedicated to one traffic direction and have to be used in conjunction with
indirection tables and special "hash" QPs to get the same level of

These extra objects however are the building blocks for RSS support brought

67e6cce675 net/mlx4: update Rx/Tx callbacks consistently
Although their "removed" version acts as a safety against unexpected bursts
while queues are being modified by the control path, these callbacks are
set per device instead of per queue. It makes sense to update them during
start/stop/close cycles instead of queue setup.

As a side effect, this commit addresses a bug left over from a prior
commit: bringing the link down causes the "removed" Tx callback to be used,
however the normal callback is not restored when bringing it back up,
preventing the application from sending traffic at all.

Updating callbacks for a link change is not necessary as bringing the
netdevice down is normally enough to prevent traffic from flowing in.

680d5280c2 net/mlx4: refactor flow item validation code
Since flow rule validation and creation have been refactored into a common
two-pass function, having separate callback functions to validate and
convert individual items seems redundant.

The purpose of these item validation functions is to reject partial masks
as those are not supported by hardware, before handing over the item to a
separate function that performs basic sanity checks.

The current approach and related code have the following issues:

- Lack of flow handle context in validation code requires kludges such as
  the special treatment reserved to spec-less Ethernet pattern items.
- Lack of useful error reporting; users need as much help as possible to
  understand what they did wrong, particularly when they hit hardware
  limitations that aren't mentioned by the flow API. Preventing them from
  going berserk after getting a generic "item not supported" message for no
  apparent reason is mandatory.
- Generic checks should be performed by the caller, not by item-specific
  validation functions.
- Mask checks either missing or too lax in some cases (Ethernet, VLAN).

This commit addresses all the above by combining validation and conversion
callbacks as "merge" callbacks that take an additional error context
parameter. Also:

- Support for source MAC address matching is removed as it has no effect.
- Providing an empty mask no longer bypasses the Ethernet specification
  check that causes a rule to become promiscuous-like.
- VLAN VIDs must be matched exactly, as matching all VLAN traffic while
  excluding non-VLAN traffic is not supported.

fc49cbb768 net/mlx4: generalize flow rule priority support
Since both internal and user-defined flow rules are handled by a common
implementation, flow rule priority overlaps are easier to detect. No need
to restrict their use to isolated mode only.

With this patch, only the lowest priority level remains inaccessible to
users outside isolated mode.

Also, the PMD no longer automatically assigns a fixed priority level to
user-defined flow rules, which means collisions between overlapping rules
matching a different number of protocol layers at a given priority level
won't be avoided anymore (e.g. "eth" vs. "eth / ipv4 / udp").

As a reminder, the outcome of overlapping rules for a given priority level
was, and still is, undefined territory according to API documentation.

328bf8e5a3 net/mlx4: relax check on missing flow rule target
Creating a flow rule targeting a missing (unconfigured) queue is not
possible. However, nothing really prevents the destruction of a queue with
existing flow rules still pointing at it, except currently the port must be
in a stopped state in order to avoid crashing.

Problem is that the port cannot be restarted if flow rules cannot be
re-applied due to missing queues. This flexibility will be needed by
subsequent work on this PMD.

Given that a PMD cannot decide on its own to remove problematic
user-defined flow rules in order to restart a port, work around this
restriction by making the affected ones drop-like, i.e. rules targeting
nonexistent queues drop packets instead.

f1c9ac9f23 net/mlx4: add iovec-like allocation wrappers
These wrappers implement the ability to allocate room for several disparate
objects as a single contiguous allocation while complying with their
respective alignment constraints.

This is usually more efficient than allocating and freeing them
individually if they are not expected to be reallocated with rte_realloc().

A typical use case is when several objects that cannot be dissociated must
be allocated together, as shown in the following example:

 struct b {
    ...
    struct d *d;
 }

 struct a {
     ...
     struct b *b;
     struct c *c;
 }

 struct mlx4_malloc_vec vec[] = {
     { .size = sizeof(struct a), .addr = &ptr_a, },
     { .size = sizeof(struct b), .addr = &ptr_b, },
     { .size = sizeof(struct c), .addr = &ptr_c, },
     { .size = sizeof(struct d), .addr = &ptr_d, },
 };

 if (!mlx4_mallocv(NULL, vec, RTE_DIM(vec)))
     goto error;

 struct a *a = ptr_a;

 a->b = ptr_b;
 a->c = ptr_c;
 a->b->d = ptr_d;
 ...
 rte_free(a);

28daff0785 net/mlx4: compact flow rule error reporting
Relying on rte_errno is not necessary where the return value of
rte_flow_error_set() can be used directly.

A related minor change is switching from RTE_FLOW_ERROR_TYPE_HANDLE to
RTE_FLOW_ERROR_TYPE_UNSPECIFIED when no rte_flow handle is involved in the
error, specifically when none is allocated yet.

This commit does not cause any functional change.

267d07dacd net/mlx4: tidy up flow rule handling code
- Remove unnecessary casts.
- Replace consecutive if/else blocks with switch statements.
- Use proper big endian definitions for mask values.
- Make end marker checks of item and action lists less verbose since they
  are explicitly documented as being equal to 0.
- Remove unnecessary NULL check on action configuration structure.

809d8a6cff net/mlx4: clarify flow objects naming scheme
In several instances, "items" refers either to a flow pattern or a single
item, and "actions" either to the entire list of actions or only one of
them.

The fact the target of a rule (struct mlx4_flow_action) is also named
"action" and item-processing objects (struct mlx4_flow_items) as "cur_item"
("token" in one instance) contributes to the confusion.

Use this opportunity to clarify related comments and remove the unused
valid_actions[] global, whose sole purpose is to be referred by
item-processing objects as "actions".

This commit does not cause any functional change.

a5171594fc net/mlx4: expose support for flow rule priorities
This PMD supports up to 4096 flow rule priority levels (0 to 4095).

Applications were not allowed to use them until now due to overlaps with
the default flows (e.g. MAC address, promiscuous mode).

This is not an issue in isolated mode when such flows do not exist.

Add missing comments and fix those not Doxygen-friendly.

Since the private structure definition is modified, use this opportunity to
add one remaining missing include required by one of its fields

5b4efcc6b9 ethdev: expose flow API error helper
rte_flow_error_set() is a convenient helper to initialize error objects.

Since there is no fundamental reason to prevent applications from using it,
expose it through the public interface after modifying its return value
from positive to negative. This is done for consistency with the rest of
the public interface.

Documentation is updated accordingly.

d5b0924ba6 ethdev: add return value to stats get dev op
The stats_get dev op API doesn't include return value, so PMD cannot
return an error in case of failure at stats getting process time.

Since PCI devices can be removed and there is a time between the
physical removal to the RMV interrupt, the user may get invalid stats
without any indication.

This patch changes the stats_get API return value to be int instead of
void.

All the net PMDs stats_get dev ops are adjusted by this patch.
