[ Upstream commit b97d5eedf4976cc94321243be83b39efe81a0e15 ]

The netdevsim driver lacks a protection mechanism for operations on the
bpf_bound_progs list. When the nsim_bpf_create_prog() performs
list_add_tail, it is possible that nsim_bpf_destroy_prog() is
simultaneously performs list_del. Concurrent operations on the list may
lead to list corruption and trigger a kernel crash as follows:

<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

Similarly to the previous commit, use the devlink instance
lock and let it replace the vfs_lock.

nsim_esw_legacy_enable() was locked by both port lock and
vfs lock so one set of lock/unlocks goes away.

netdevsim's .eswitch_mode_set callback is now ready for
the callback to take the instance lock.

Take advantage of the devlink instance lock for protecting
the port list. This will simplify locking even more once
all devlink callbacks hold the instance lock.

We need to add locking in nsim_dev_port_add_all() which used
to assume higher layer protection when accessing the list.

We need to add locking in nsim_dev_port_add_all() which used
to assume higher layer protection when accessing the list.

<title>netdevsim: Introduce support for L3 offload xstats</title>

<content type='text'>
Add support for testing of HW stats support that was added recently, namely
the L3 stats support. L3 stats are provided for devices for which the L3
stats have been turned on, and that were enabled for netdevsim through a
debugfs toggle:

    # echo $ifindex &gt; /sys/kernel/debug/netdevsim/$DEV/hwstats/l3/enable_ifindex

For fully enabled netdevices, netdevsim counts 10pps of ingress traffic and
20pps of egress traffic. Similarly, L3 stats can be disabled for a given
device, and netdevsim ceases pretending there is any HW traffic going on:

    # echo $ifindex &gt; /sys/kernel/debug/netdevsim/$DEV/hwstats/l3/disable_ifindex

Besides this, there is a third toggle to mark a device for future failure:

    # echo $ifindex &gt; /sys/kernel/debug/netdevsim/$DEV/hwstats/l3/fail_next_enable

A future request to enable L3 stats on such netdevice will be bounced by
netdevsim:

    # ip -j l sh dev d | jq '.[].ifindex'
    66
    # echo 66 &gt; /sys/kernel/debug/netdevsim/netdevsim10/hwstats/l3/enable_ifindex
    # echo 66 &gt; /sys/kernel/debug/netdevsim/netdevsim10/hwstats/l3/fail_next_enable
    # ip stats set dev d l3_stats on
    Error: netdevsim: Stats enablement set to fail.

Rename functions serving as driver entry points
from nsim_dev_... to nsim_drv_... this makes the
API boundary between bus and dev clearer.

<title>netdevsim: move max vf config to dev</title>

max_vfs is a strange little beast because the file
hangs off of nsim's debugfs, but it configures a field
in the bus device. Move it to dev.c, let's look at it
as if the device driver was imposing VF limit based
on FW info (like pci_sriov_set_totalvfs()).

Again, when moving refactor the function not to hold
the vfs lock pointlessly while parsing the input.
Wrap the access from the read side in READ_ONCE()
to appease concurrency checkers. Do not check if
return value from snprintf() is negative...
