This patch corrects a bug introduced by commit f3444d8b. The rxmtrl value for
the UDP port to timestamp on was moved above the switch statement, but was
overwritten to 0 if the ioctl selected one of the V1 filters.

This patch copies the igb implementation of Tx timestamps, which uses a work
item to poll for the Tx timestamp. In addition it adds a timeout value of 15
seconds, after which it will stop polling.
This is necessary due to an issue with the descriptor being marked done before
the Tx timestamp event has occurred. These two events don't correlate, so using
the done bit on the descriptor as indication that the timestamp must already
have been taken leads to potentially dropped Tx timestamps (especially under
heavy packet load)

This patch removes ixgbe_ptp_match, and the corresponding packet filtering from
ixgbe driver. This code was previously causing some issues within the hotpath of
the driver. However the code also provided a check against possible frozen Rx
timestamp due to dropped packets when the Rx ring is full. This patch provides a
replacement solution based on the watchdog.
To this end, whenever a packet consumes the Rx timestamp it stores the jiffy
value in the rx_ring structure. Watchdog updates its own jiffy timer whenever
there is no valid timestamp in the registers.
If watchdog detects a valid timestamp in the registers, (meaning that no Rx
packet has consumed it yet) it will check which time is most recent, the last
time in the watchdog, or any time in the rx_rings. If the most recent "event"
was more than 5seconds ago, it will flush the Rx timestamp and print a warning
message to the syslog.

This patch removes the queuing that was previously done for L4 packets
as it is not needed. The filter does not provide functionality, and it
is possible that queue setup here could trample settings done else-where
in the driver. (for example it may use a queue which isn't setup.)
Setting of the queue is not required for hardware timestamping and could
have inadverdent side effects.

This patch removes a magic number that was used for the ETQF used for
filtering L2 ptp packets and replaces it with the supplied define that
previously existed. The intent is to clarify that this filter is already
set aside for L2 1588 work.

Hw timestamping code caused performance regression in ixgbe driver when the
timestamping is not enabled. The culprit is IXGBE_READ_REG call in the Rx
path which is executed for every received skb. This call is not needed when
the timestamping is disabled or for non-ptp packets.

The ixgbe side of the connection was acting as a server, the netperf command
line on the other side was:
netperf -H 192.168.1.23 -T0,0 -t UDP_STREAM -l 20
The values below mean throughput as reported by netperf (local/remote), for

This patch modifies when and where PTP registers and data are set. Previously
a work-around was used inside cyclecounter_start in order to reset some of the
time registers. This patch creates a new ixgbe_ptp_reset specifically for this
purpose. The cyclecounter configuration has trimmed down to only modify what
is necessary. Due to hardware conditions after probe and before open, PTP init
has now moved into the ixgbe_open call. This allows the ptp device name in the
sysfs to be the ethernet device name instead of the MAC address.
The cyclecounter check flag is renamed to PTP_ENABLED and is used to prevent
PTP init from happening when PTP has not been enabled.

This patch fixes a bug in the method used for calculating the trigger
alignment for SDP0 when enabling a PPS output on the X540. The alignment math
wasn't properly taking into account the overflow cyclecounter, and was
misaligning the pin triggers so that two X540 devices synced properly had
mis-aligned SDP pins. This patch fixes the math to calculate the correct
seconds alignment for the PPS signal.

This patch fixes a potential hole when configuring the cycle counter used to
generate the nanosecond time clock. This clock is based off of the SYSTIME
registers along with the TIMINCA registers. The TIMINCA register determines
the increment to be added to the SYSTIME registers every DMA clock tick. This
register needs to be reconfigured whenever the link-speed changes. However,
the value calculated stays the same when link is down and when link is up.
Misconfiguration can occur if the link status changes due to a reset, which
causes the TIMINCA register to be reset. This reset puts the device in an
unstable state where the SYSTIME registers stop incrementing and the PTP
protocol does not function.
The solution is to double check the TIMINCA value and always reset the value
if the register is zero. This prevents a misconfiguration bug that halts the
PHC.

This patch fixes a potential Rx timestamp deadlock that causes the Rx
timestamping to stall indefinitely. The issue could occur when a PTP packet is
timestamped by hardware but never reaches the Rx queue. In order to prevent a
permanent loss of timestamping, the RXSTMP(L/H) registers have to be read to
unlock them. (This used to only occur when a packet that was timestamped
reached the software.) However the registers can't be read early otherwise
there is no way to correlate them to the packet.
This patch introduces a filter function which can be used to determine if a
packet should have been timestamped. Supplied with the filter setup by the
hwtstamp ioctl, check to make sure the PTP protocol and message type match the
expected values. If so, then read the timestamp registers (to free them.) At
this point check the descriptor bit, if the bit is set then we know this
packet correlates to the timestamp stored in the RXTSTAMP registers.
Otherwise, assume that packet was dropped by the hardware, and ignore this
timestamp value. However, we have at least unlocked the rxtstamp registers for
future timestamping.
Due to the way the driver handles skb data, it cannot be directly accessed. In
order to work around this, a copy of the skb data into a linear buffer is
made. From this buffer it becomes possible to read the data correctly

When enabling the hwtstamp mode for Rx timestamping the V2 ptp event type
specific modes (Delay Request and Sync) have been rolled into the V2 all event
packet modes, in order to more accurately represent what hardware is doing.
Hardware always timestamps the Path delay packets when a V2 mode is selected,
regardless of what type was selected (in order to always support Path delay
mode). However this means the user selected modes of timestamping only Sync or
Delay Request is not truly supported. This patch correctly sets the mode for
the hwtstamp config and returns to the user that all V2 event packets will be
timestamped.

This patch fixes two minor nits from Richard Cochran. The first is a case of
ambitious line wrapping that wasn't necessary. The second is to re-order the
flag checks for PPS support. Previously, the hardware test was done first, and
the interrupt flag test was done second. Now, test the interrupt flag and use
the unlikely macro.

This patch enables the PPS system in the PHC framework, by enabling
the clock-out feature on the X540 device. Causes the SDP0 to be set as
a 1Hz clock. Also configures the timesync interrupt cause in order to
report each pulse to the PPS via the PHC framework, which can be used
for general system clock synchronization. (This allows a stable method
for tuning the general system time via the on-board SYSTIM register
based clock.)

This patch enables hardware timestamping for use with PTP software by
extracting a ns counter from an arbitrary fixed point cycles counter.
The hardware generates SYSTIME registers using the DMA tick which
changes based on the current link speed. These SYSTIME registers are
converted to ns using the cyclecounter and timecounter structures
provided by the kernel. Using the SO_TIMESTAMPING api, software can
enable and access timestamps for PTP packets.
The SO_TIMESTAMPING API has space for 3 different kinds of timestamps,
SYS, RAW, and SOF. SYS hardware timestamps are hardware ns values that
are then scaled to the software clock. RAW hardware timestamps are the
direct raw value of the ns counter. SOF software timestamps are the
software timestamp calculated as close as possible to the software
transmit, but are not offloaded to the hardware. This patch only
supports the RAW hardware timestamps due to inefficiency of the SYS
design.
This patch also enables the PHC subsystem features for atomically
adjusting the cycle register, and adjusting the clock frequency in
parts per billion. This frequency adjustment works by slightly
adjusting the value added to the cycle registers each DMA tick. This
causes the hardware registers to overflow rapidly (approximately once
every 34 seconds, when at 10gig link). To solve this, the timecounter
structure is used, along with a timer set for every 25 seconds. This
allows for detecting register overflow and converting the cycle
counter registers into ns values needed for providing useful
timestamps to the network stack.
Only the basic required clock functions are supported at this time,
although the hardware supports some ancillary features and these could
easily be enabled in the future.
Note that use of this hardware timestamping requires modifying daemon
software to use the SO_TIMESTAMPING API for timestamps, and the
ptp_clock PHC framework for accessing the clock. The timestamps have
no relation to the system time at all, so software must use the posix
clock generated by the PHC framework instead.
