[ Upstream commit ea937f77208323d35ffe2f8d8fc81b00118bfcda ]

PHC gets initialized in nsim_init_netdevsim(), which
is only called if (nsim_dev_port_is_pf()).

Create a counterpart of nsim_init_netdevsim() and
move the mock_phc_destroy() there.

This fixes a crash trying to destroy netdevsim with
VFs instantiated, as caught by running the devlink.sh test:

    BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 00000000000000b8

<title>net: netdevsim: mimic tc-taprio offload</title>

To be able to use netdevsim for tc-testing with an offloaded tc-taprio
schedule, it needs to report a PTP clock (which it now does), and to
accept ndo_setup_tc(TC_SETUP_QDISC_TAPRIO) calls.

Since netdevsim has no packet I/O, this doesn't do anything intelligent,
it only allows taprio offload code paths to go through some level of
automated testing.

<title>net: netdevsim: use mock PHC driver</title>

I'd like to make netdevsim offload tc-taprio, but currently, this Qdisc
emits a ETHTOOL_GET_TS_INFO call to the driver to make sure that it has
a PTP clock, so that it is reasonably capable of offloading the schedule.

By using the mock PHC driver, that becomes possible.

Hardware timestamping is not necessary, and netdevsim does not support
packet I/O anyway.

When the kernel is compiled with MACsec support, add the
NETIF_F_HW_MACSEC feature to netdevsim devices and implement
macsec_ops.

To allow easy testing of failure from the device, support is limited
to 3 SecY's per netdevsim device, and 1 RXSC per SecY.

v2:
 - nsim_macsec_add_secy, return -ENOSPC if secy_count isn't full but
   we can't find an empty slot (Simon Horman)
 - add sci_to_cpu to make sparse happy (Simon Horman)
 - remove set but not used secy variable (kernel test robot and

<title>drivers: net: turn on XDP features</title>

<content type='text'>
A summary of the flags being set for various drivers is given below.
Note that XDP_F_REDIRECT_TARGET and XDP_F_FRAG_TARGET are features
that can be turned off and on at runtime. This means that these flags
may be set and unset under RTNL lock protection by the driver. Hence,
READ_ONCE must be used by code loading the flag value.

Also, these flags are not used for synchronization against the availability
of XDP resources on a device. It is merely a hint, and hence the read
may race with the actual teardown of XDP resources on the device. This
may change in the future, e.g. operations taking a reference on the XDP
resources of the driver, and in turn inhibiting turning off this flag.
However, for now, it can only be used as a hint to check whether device
supports becoming a redirection target.

Turn 'hw-offload' feature flag on for:
 - netronome (nfp)
 - netdevsim.

Turn 'native' and 'zerocopy' features flags on for:
 - intel (i40e, ice, ixgbe, igc)
 - mellanox (mlx5).
 - stmmac
 - netronome (nfp)

Turn 'native' features flags on for:
 - amazon (ena)
 - broadcom (bnxt)
 - freescale (dpaa, dpaa2, enetc)
 - funeth
 - intel (igb)
 - marvell (mvneta, mvpp2, octeontx2)

 - qlogic (qede)
 - sfc
 - socionext (netsec)
 - ti (cpsw)
 - tap
 - tsnep
 - veth
 - xen
 - virtio_net.

Turn 'basic' (tx, pass, aborted and drop) features flags on for:
 - netronome (nfp)
 - cavium (thunder)
 - hyperv.

Turn 'redirect_target' feature flag on for:
 - amanzon (ena)
 - broadcom (bnxt)

On 32bit-UP u64_stats_fetch_begin() disables only preemption. If the
reader is in preemptible context and the writer side
(u64_stats_update_begin*()) runs in an interrupt context (IRQ or
softirq) then the writer can update the stats during the read operation.
This update remains undetected.

Use u64_stats_fetch_begin_irq() to ensure the stats fetch on 32bit-UP
are not interrupted by a writer. 32bit-SMP remains unaffected by this
change.

<title>netdevsim: move vfconfig to nsim_dev</title>

When netdevsim got split into the faux bus vfconfig ended
up in the bus device (think pci_dev) which is strange because
it contains very networky not to say netdevy information.
Move it to nsim_dev, which is the driver "priv" structure
for the device.

To make sure we don't race with probe/remove take
the device lock (much like PCI).

While at it remove the NULL-checking of vfconfigs.
It appears to be pointless.
