When traffic load is not low or low latency is active, TCM schedules
re-evaluation work so in case traffic stops TCM will detect that
traffic load has become low or that low latency is no longer active.
However, if TCM is paused when the re-evaluation work runs, it does
not re-evaluate and the re-evaluation work is no longer scheduled.
As a result, TCM will not indicate that low latency is no longer
active or that traffic load is low when traffic stops.
Fix this by forcing TCM re-evaluation when TCM is resumed in case
low latency is active or traffic load is not low.

pull-request: bpf-next 2018-03-31
The following pull-request contains BPF updates for your *net-next* tree.
The main changes are:
1) Add raw BPF tracepoint API in order to have a BPF program type that
can access kernel internal arguments of the tracepoints in their
raw form similar to kprobes based BPF programs. This infrastructure
also adds a new BPF_RAW_TRACEPOINT_OPEN command to BPF syscall which
returns an anon-inode backed fd for the tracepoint object that allows
for automatic detach of the BPF program resp. unregistering of the
tracepoint probe on fd release, from Alexei.
2) Add new BPF cgroup hooks at bind() and connect() entry in order to
allow BPF programs to reject, inspect or modify user space passed
struct sockaddr, and as well a hook at post bind time once the port
has been allocated. They are used in FB's container management engine
for implementing policy, replacing fragile LD_PRELOAD wrapper
intercepting bind() and connect() calls that only works in limited
scenarios like glibc based apps but not for other runtimes in
containerized applications, from Andrey.
3) BPF_F_INGRESS flag support has been added to sockmap programs for
their redirect helper call bringing it in line with cls_bpf based
programs. Support is added for both variants of sockmap programs,
meaning for tx ULP hooks as well as recv skb hooks, from John.
4) Various improvements on BPF side for the nfp driver, besides others
this work adds BPF map update and delete helper call support from
the datapath, JITing of 32 and 64 bit XADD instructions as well as
offload support of bpf_get_prandom_u32() call. Initial implementation
of nfp packet cache has been tackled that optimizes memory access
(see merge commit for further details), from Jakub and Jiong.
5) Removal of struct bpf_verifier_env argument from the print_bpf_insn()
API has been done in order to prepare to use print_bpf_insn() soon
out of perf tool directly. This makes the print_bpf_insn() API more
generic and pushes the env into private data. bpftool is adjusted
as well with the print_bpf_insn() argument removal, from Jiri.
6) Couple of cleanups and prep work for the upcoming BTF (BPF Type
Format). The latter will reuse the current BPF verifier log as
well, thus bpf_verifier_log() is further generalized, from Martin.
7) For bpf_getsockopt() and bpf_setsockopt() helpers, IPv4 IP_TOS read
and write support has been added in similar fashion to existing
IPv6 IPV6_TCLASS socket option we already have, from Nikita.
8) Fixes in recent sockmap scatterlist API usage, which did not use
sg_init_table() for initialization thus triggering a BUG_ON() in
scatterlist API when CONFIG_DEBUG_SG was enabled. This adds and
uses a small helper sg_init_marker() to properly handle the affected
cases, from Prashant.
9) Let the BPF core follow IDR code convention and therefore use the
idr_preload() and idr_preload_end() helpers, which would also help
idr_alloc_cyclic() under GFP_ATOMIC to better succeed under memory
pressure, from Shaohua.
10) Last but not least, a spelling fix in an error message for the
BPF cookie UID helper under BPF sample code, from Colin.

We might erroneously get to error dumping code when the
device is already stopped.
In that case the driver will detect a defective value and will try to
reset the HW, assuming it is only a bus issue. The driver than
proceeds with the dumping.
The result has two side effects:
1. The device won't be stopped again, since the transport status is
already stopped, so the device remains powered on while it actually
should be stopped.
2. The dump in that case is completely garbaged and useless.

When we act as an AP, new firmware versions handle
internally the power saving clients and the driver doesn't
know that the peers went to sleep. It is, hence, possible
that a peer goes to sleep for a long time and stop pulling
frames. This will cause its transmit queue to hang which is
a condition that triggers the recovery flow in the driver.
While this client is certainly buggy (it should have pulled
the frame based on the TIM IE in the beacon), we can't blow
up because of a buggy client.
Change the current implementation to not enable the
transmit queue hang detection on queues that serve peers
when we act as an AP / GO.
We can still enable this mechanism using the debug
configuration which can come in handy when we want to
debug why the client doesn't wake up.

In the driver, we track which hardware queue is associated with
which mac80211 "hw_queue", in order to be able to stop and wake
it. When moving these bitmaps out of the queue_info structures,
the type of the bitmap was erroneously changed from u32 to u8,
presumably in order to save memory.
Turns out that u32 isn't needed, because the highest queue we
can ever tell mac80211 is always < 16, but a u16 definitely is
needed, queues >=8 do happen.
While at it, throw a BUILD_BUG_ON() into the place where we set
the limit (mvm->first_agg_queue) and a warning when it actually
gets put into the bitmap.
The consequence of this bug is that full HW queues associated
with such a too-high mac80211 number never stop higher layer
queues when full, and thus would simply drop all packets that
couldn't be enqueued to the hardware queue.

In case we need to move the scheduler write pointer by
steps of 0x40, 0x80 or 0xc0, the scheduler gets stuck.
This leads to hardware error interrupts with status:
0x5A5A5A5A or alike.
In order to work around this, detect in the transport
layer that we are going to hit this case and tell iwlmvm
to increment the sequence number of the packets. This
allows to keep the requirement that the WiFi sequence
number is in sync with the index in the scheduler Tx queue
and it also allows to avoid the problematic sequence.
This means that from time to time, we will start a queue
from ssn + 1, but that shouldn't be a problem since we
don't switch to new queues for AMPDU now that we have
DQA which allows to keep the same queue while toggling
the AMPDU state.
