This is [1/3] part of hinic3 Ethernet driver initial submission.
With this patch hinic3 is a valid kernel module but non-functional
driver.
The driver parts contained in this patch:
Module initialization.
PCI driver registration but with empty id_table.
Auxiliary driver registration.
Net device_ops registration but open/stop are empty stubs.
tx/rx logic.
All major data structures of the driver are fully introduced with the
code that uses them but without their initialization code that requires
management interface with the hw.

The ICSSG firmware maintains set of stats called PA_STATS.
Currently the driver only dumps 4 stats. Add support for dumping more
stats.
The offset for different stats are defined as MACROs in icssg_switch_map.h
file. All the offsets are for Slice0. Slice1 offsets are slice0 + 4.
The offset calculation is taken care while reading the stats in
emac_update_hardware_stats().
The statistics are documented in

Implement "mdd-auto-reset-vf" priv-flag to handle Tx and Rx MDD events for VFs.
This flag is also used in other network adapters like ICE.
Usage:
- "on" - The problematic VF will be automatically reset
if a malformed descriptor is detected.
- "off" - The problematic VF will be disabled.
In cases where a VF sends malformed packets classified as malicious, it can
cause the Tx queue to freeze, rendering it unusable for several minutes. When
an MDD event occurs, this new implementation allows for a graceful VF reset to
quickly restore operational state.
Currently, VF queues are disabled if an MDD event occurs. This patch adds the
ability to reset the VF if a Tx or Rx MDD event occurs. It also includes MDD
event logging throttling to avoid dmesg pollution and unifies the format of
Tx and Rx MDD messages.
Note: Standard message rate limiting functions like dev_info_ratelimited()
do not meet our requirements. Custom rate limiting is implemented,
please see the code for details.

HW-Managed Flow Steering in mlx5 driver
Yevgeny Kliteynik says:
=======================
1. Overview
-----------
ConnectX devices support packet matching, modification, and redirection.
This functionality is referred as Flow Steering.
To configure a steering rule, the rule is written to the device-owned
memory. This memory is accessed and cached by the device when processing
a packet.
The first implementation of Flow Steering was done in FW, and it is
referred in the mlx5 driver as Device-Managed Flow Steering (DMFS).
Later we introduced SW-managed Flow Steering (SWS or SMFS), where the
driver is writing directly to the device's configuration memory (ICM)
through RC QP using RDMA operations (RDMA-read and RDAM-write), thus
achieving higher rates of rule insertion/deletion.
Now we introduce a new flow steering implementation: HW-Managed Flow
Steering (HWS or HMFS).
In this new approach, the driver is configuring steering rules directly
to the HW using the WQs with a special new type of WQE. This way we can
reach higher rule insertion/deletion rate with much lower CPU utilization
compared to SWS.
The key benefits of HWS as opposed to SWS:
+ HW manages the steering decision tree
- HW calculates CRC for each entry
- HW handles tree hash collisions
- HW & FW manage objects refcount
+ HW keeps cache coherency:
- HW provides tree access locking and synchronization
- HW provides notification on completion
+ Insertion rate isn’t affected by background traffic
- Dedicated HW components that handle insertion
2. Performance
--------------
Measuring Connection Tracking with simple IPv4 flows w/o NAT, we
are able to get ~5 times more flows offloaded per second using HWS.
3. Configuration
----------------
The enablement of HWS mode in eswitch manager is done using the same
devlink param that is already used for switching between FW-managed
steering and SW-managed steering modes:
# devlink dev param set pci/<PCI_ID> name flow_steering_mode cmod runtime value hmfs
4. Upstream Submission
----------------------
HWS support consists of 3 main components:
+ Steering:
- The lower layer that exposes HWS API to upper layers and implements
all the management of flow steering building blocks
+ FS-Core
- Implementation of fs_hws layer to enable fs_core to use HWS instead
of FW or SW steering
- Create HW steering action pools to utilize the ability of HWS to
share steering actions among different rules
- Add support for configuring HWS mode through devlink command,
similar to configuring SWS mode
+ Connection Tracking
- Implementation of CT support for HW steering
- Hooks up the CT ops for the new steering mode and uses the HWS API
to implement connection tracking.
Because of the large number of patches, we need to perform the submission
in several separate patch series. This series is the first submission that
lays the ground work for the next submissions, where an actual user of HWS
will be added.
5. Patches in this series
-------------------------
This patch series contains implementation of the first bullet from above.

Pull staging driver updates from Greg KH:
"Here is the big set of staging driver updates for 6.7-rc1. A bit
bigger than 6.6 this time around, as it coincided with the Outreachy
and mentorship application process, so we got a bunch of new
developers sending in their first changes, which is nice to see.
Also in here is a removal of the qlge ethernet driver, and the
rtl8192u wireless driver. Both of these were very old and no one was
maintaining them, the wireless driver removal was due to no one using
it anymore, and no hardware to be found, and is part of a larger
effort to remove unused and old wifi drivers from the system.
The qlge ethernet driver did have one user pop up after it was
dropped, and we are working with the network mainainers to figure out
what tree it will come back in from and who will be responsible for
it, and if it really is being used or not. Odds are it will show up in
a network subsystem pull request after -rc1 is out, but we aren't sure
yet.
Other smaller changes in here are:
- Lots of vc04_services work by Umang to clean up the mess created by
the rpi developers long ago, bringing it almost into good enough
shape to get out of staging, hopefully next major release, it's
getting close.
- rtl8192e variable cleanups and removal of unused code and
structures
- vme_user coding style cleanups
- other small coding style cleanups to lots of the staging drivers
- octeon typedef removals, and then last-minute revert when it was
found to break the build in some configurations (it's a hard driver
to build properly, none of the normal automated testing catches
it.)
All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported
issues"

Pull ia64 removal and asm-generic updates from Arnd Bergmann:
- The ia64 architecture gets its well-earned retirement as planned,
now that there is one last (mostly) working release that will be
maintained as an LTS kernel.
- The architecture specific system call tables are updated for the
added map_shadow_stack() syscall and to remove references to the
long-gone sys_lookup_dcookie() syscall.

Aviator/Raytheon is an early PCMCIA driver, apparently predating 802.11b
and only supporting wireless extensions.
The driver has been orphaned since 2010 and only seen cosmetic updates
long before than. Jean Tourrilhes pointed out in a 2005 changelog that
he tested a change on actual hardware, which was apparently already
noteworthy back then.

Commit a12ba19269 ("net/mlx5: Update Kconfig parameter documentation")
adds documentation on Kconfig options for the mlx5 driver. It refers to the
config MLX5_EN_MACSEC for MACSec offloading, but the config is actually
called MLX5_MACSEC.
Fix the reference to the right config name in the documentation.
