This feature will allow the user to disable auto negotiation
on the port for mlx4 devices while setting the speed is limited
to 1GbE speeds.
Other speeds will not be accepted in autoneg off mode.

This functionality is permitted providing that the firmware
is compatible with this feature.
The above is determined by querying a new dedicated capability
bit in the device.

<title>net/mlx4_core: Fix raw qp flow steering rules under SRIOV</title>

<id>10b1c04e92229ebeb38ccd0dcf2b6d3ec73c0575</id>
<content type='text'>
Demoting simple flow steering rule priority (for DPDK) was achieved by
wrapping FW commands MLX4_QP_FLOW_STEERING_ATTACH/DETACH for the PF
as well, and forcing the priority to MLX4_DOMAIN_NIC in the wrapper
function for the PF and all VFs.

In function mlx4_ib_create_flow(), this change caused the main rule
creation for the PF to be wrapped, while it left the associated
tunnel steering rule creation unwrapped for the PF.

This mismatch caused rule deletion failures in mlx4_ib_destroy_flow()
for the PF when the detach wrapper function did not find the associated
tunnel-steering rule (since creation of that rule for the PF did not
go through the wrapper function).

Fix this by setting MLX4_QP_FLOW_STEERING_ATTACH/DETACH to be "native"
(so that the PF invocation does not go through the wrapper), and perform
the required priority demotion for the PF in the mlx4_ib_create_flow()
code path.

<id>b4353708f5a1c084fd73f1b6fd243b142157b173</id>
<content type='text'>
This reverts commit 9d76931180557270796f9631e2c79b9c7bb3c9fb.

Using unregister_netdev at shutdown flow prevents calling
the netdev's ndos or trying to access its freed resources.

This fixes crashes like the following:

Currently interrupt test that is part of ethtool selftest runs the
check over all interrupt vectors of the device.
In mlx4_en package part of interrupt vectors are uninitialized since
mlx4_ib doesn't exist. This causes NOP FW command to time out.
Change logic to test current port interrupt vectors only.

In MLX qp packets, the LRH (built by the driver) has both a VL field
and an SL field. When building a QP1 packet, the VL field should
reflect the SLtoVL mapping and not arbitrarily contain zero (as is
done now). This bug causes credit problems in IB switches at
high rates of QP1 packets.

The fix is to cache the SL to VL mapping in the driver, and look up
the VL mapped to the SL provided in the send request when sending
QP1 packets.

For FW versions which support generating a port_management_config_change
event with subtype sl-to-vl-table-change, the driver uses that event
to update its sl-to-vl mapping cache.  Otherwise, the driver snoops
incoming SMP mads to update the cache.

There remains the case where the FW is running in secure-host mode
(so no QP0 packets are delivered to the driver), and the FW does not
generate the sl2vl mapping change event. To support this case, the
driver updates (via querying the FW) its sl2vl mapping cache when
running in secure-host mode when it receives either a Port Up event
or a client-reregister event (where the port is still up, but there
may have been an opensm failover).
OpenSM modifies the sl2vl mapping before Port Up and Client-reregister
events occur, so if there is a mapping change the driver's cache will
be properly updated.
