An HDLC device can change type when the protocol driver is changed.
Calling the notifier change allows potential users of the interface
know about this planned change, and even block it. After the change
has occurred, send a second notification to users can evaluate the new
device type etc.

The current code first unregisters the device, and then detaches the
protocol from it. This should be performed the other way around, since
the detach may try to use state which has been freed by the
unregister. Swap the order, so that we first detach and then remove the
netdev.

====================
net: qmi_wwan: MDM9x30 support
We add new device IDs all the time, often without any testing on
actual hardware. This is usually OK as long as the device is similar
to already supported devices, using the same chipset and firmware
basis. But the Sierra Wireless MC7455 is an example of a new chipset
generation. Adding it based on assumed similarity with its ancestors
proved too optimistic.
This series adds the missing bits and pieces necessary to support LTE
Advanced modems based on the Qualcomm MDM9x30 chipset. A big thanks to
Sierra Wireless for providing MC7455 samples for testing
The most important change is the "raw-ip" support. The series also
adds a necessary control request, removes an unsupported device ID,
and adds a driver specific entry in MAINTAINERS.
A few random notes about "raw-ip":
"I rather have these all running in raw IP mode. The 802.3 framing is
utterly stupid." - Marcel Holtmann in Jan 2012 [1]
Marcel was right. I should have listened to him. What more can I say?
The 802.3 framing has provided a steady supply of firmware bugs for
many years. We've added driver workarounds for many of these, but
there are still known bugs where the workaround is so yucky that we
have refused to apply it. But all that is over now. The latest
generation Qualcomm chips no longer supports 802.3 framing at all.
I had two open questions regarding the "raw-ip" userspace API:
1) Should we continue faking an ethernet device, even if we don't use
the L2 headers on the USB link anymore?
There was a vote in favour of the "headerless" device. This is the
honest representation of the hardware/firmware interface.
2) What input should the driver base its framing on?
Snooping or directly manipulating QMI is considered out of the
question. We delegated all QMI handling to userspace from the
beginning.
We have so far required userspace to configure the firmware for
"802.3" framing, or fail if that proved impossible. This
requirement is now changed. Userspace must now inform the driver
if it negotiates "raw-ip" framing. Two alternative interfaces were
proposed:
- ethtool private driver flag, or
- sysfs file
The NetworkManager/ModemManager developers were in favour of the
sysfs alternative.
These questions (or any other you migh have :) are of course still
open. This patch set presents the solutions I currently prefer,
considering the above.
All comments are appreciated, even simple '+1' ones.

QMI wwan devices have traditionally emulated ethernet devices
by default. But they have always had the capability of operating
without any L2 header at all, transmitting and receiving "raw"
IP packets over the USB link. This firmware feature used to be
configurable through the QMI management protocol.
Traditionally there was no way to verify the firmware mode
without attempting to change it. And the firmware would often
disallow changes anyway, i.e. due to a session already being
established. In some cases, this could be a hidden firmware
internal session, completely outside host control. For these
reasons, sticking with the "well known" default mode was safest.
But newer generations of QMI hardware and firmware have moved
towards defaulting to "raw IP" mode instead, followed by an
increasing number of bugs in the already buggy "802.3" firmware
implementation. At the same time, the QMI management protocol
gained the ability to detect the current mode. This has enabled
the userspace QMI management application to verify the current
firmware mode without trying to modify it.
Following this development, the latest QMI hardware and firmware
(the MDM9x30 generation) has dropped support for "802.3" mode
entirely. Support for "raw IP" framing in the driver is therefore
necessary for these devices, and to a certain degree to work
around problems with the previous generation,
This patch adds support for "raw IP" framing for QMI devices,
changing the netdev from an ethernet device to an ARPHRD_NONE
p-t-p device when "raw IP" framing is enabled.
The firmware setup is fully delegated to the QMI userspace
management application, through simple tunneling of the QMI
protocol. The driver will therefore not know which mode has been
"negotiated" between firmware and userspace. Allowing userspace
to inform the driver of the result through a sysfs switch is
considered a better alternative than to change the well established
clean delegation of firmware management to userspace.

MDM9x30 based modems appear to go into a deeper sleep when
suspended without "Remote Wakeup" enabled. The QMI interface
will not respond unless a "set DTR" control request is sent
on resume. The effect is similar to a QMI_CTL SYNC request,
resetting (some of) the firmware state.
We allow userspace sessions to span multiple character device
open/close sequences. This means that userspace can depend
on firmware state while both the netdev and the character
device are closed. We have disabled "needs_remote_wakeup" at
this point to allow devices without remote wakeup support to
be auto-suspended.
To make sure the MDM9x30 keeps firmware state, we need to
keep "needs_remote_wakeup" always set. We also need to
issue a "set DTR" request to enable the QMI interface.

====================
net:hns: Add support of Hip06 SoC to the Hislicon Network Subsystem
This PATCH V7 addresses the TAB formatting comments by
Sergei Shtylyov. Missing TABs at some other palces have
also been corrected.
PATCH V6:
This addresses the review comments provided by
David Miller over the existing use of ENABLE/DISABLE
hash defines with the code. These hash defines are doing
a similar job as implicit type bool would do. So these are
kind of duplicate and are redundant.
PATCH V5:
This PATCH addresses the review comments by Yuval Mintz
<Yuval.Mintz@qlogic.com>. This rework of comments are basically
related to:
1) styling of the code,
2) RSS default Key initiailization related code
3) redundant code removal
PATCH V4:
This addresses the review comment provided by
Sergei Shtylyov. The changelog of every patch has also
been modified.
PATCH V3:
Addresses the review comment floated by David Miller
PATCH V2:
1) Bug Fixes and Clean-up: Internally identified
2) Addresses internal review comments by Kenneth Lee and
by Huang Daode
3) Addresses the review comment from "Yisen.Zhuang(Zhuangyuzeng)"
4) Adds fix from Fengguang Wu for an error generated from
"kbuild test robot" from Intel
5) Ethtool support for TSO set option from Lisheng
PATCH V1:
Adds initial support of Hip06 SoC with below changes:
This patch-set adds support of new Hisilicon Hip06 SoC to the existing
(already part of net-next) HNS ethernet driver for Hip05 SoC. Hip06 is
a multi-core SoC and is a derivative of Hip05 SoC with lots of new
hardware featres supported like RSS, TSO, hardware VLAN assist etc.
The changes in the driver are mainly due to following:
1) changes in the DMA descriptor provided by the Hip06 ethernet
hardware. These changes need to co-exist with already present
Hip05 DMA descriptor and its operating functions. The decision
to choose the correct type of DMA descriptor is taken dynamically
depending upon the version of the hardware (i.e. V1/hip05 or
V2/hip06, see already existing hisilicon-hns-nic.txt binding file
for the detailed description version and naming).
2) To support new features added to the Hip06 ethernet hardware:
a. RSS (Receive Side Scaling)
b. TSO (TCP Segment Offload)
c. Hardware VLAN support (currently we are initializing hardware
to not assist in stripping the vlan tag at hardware level.
Proper support of this feature and ethtool would come after
these patches have been accepted)
Kindly note that, this patchset has been based on latest net-next.

When cancelling, you can cancel "any" (first in list) mgmt-tx
or remain-on-channel operation by using the value 0 for the
cookie along with the *opposite* operation, i.e.
* cancel the first mgmt-tx by cancelling roc with 0 cookie
* cancel the first roc by cancelling mgmt-tx with 0 cookie
This isn't really that bad since userspace should only pass
cookies that we gave it, but could lead to hard-to-debug
issues so better prevent it and reject zero values since we
never hand those out.

Jouni found a bug in the remain-on-channel logic: when a short item
is queued, a long item is combined with it extending the original
one, and then the long item is deleted, the timeout doesn't go back
to the short one, and the short item ends up taking a long time. In
this case, this showed as blocking scan when running two test cases
back to back - the scan from the second was delayed even though all
the remain-on-channel items should long have been gone.
Fixing this with the current data structures turns out to be a bit
complicated, we just remove the long item from the dependents list
right now and don't recalculate the timeouts.
There's a somewhat similar bug where we delete the short item and
all the dependents go with it; to fix this we'd have to move them
from the dependents to the real list.
Instead of trying to do that, rewrite the code to not have all this
complexity in the data structures: use a single list and allow more
than one entry in it being marked as started. This makes the code a
bit more complex, the worker needs to understand that it might need
to just remove one of the started items, while keeping the device
off-channel, but that's not more complicated than the nested data
structures.
This then fixes both issues described, and makes it easier to also
limit the overall off-channel time when combining.
TODO: as before, with hardware remain-on-channel, deleting an item
after combining results in cancelling them all - we can keep track
of the time elapsed and only cancel after that to fix this.

When a new station is added to AP/GO interfaces the default behaviour
is for it to be added authenticated and associated, due to backwards
compatibility. To prevent that, the driver must be able to do that
(setting the NL80211_FEATURE_FULL_AP_CLIENT_STATE feature flag) and
userspace must set the flag mask to auth|assoc and clear the set.
Handle this quirk in the API entirely in nl80211, and always push the
full flags to the drivers. NL80211_FEATURE_FULL_AP_CLIENT_STATE is
still required for userspace to be allowed to set the mask including
those bits, but after checking that add both flags to the mask and
set in case userspace didn't set them otherwise.
This obsoletes the mac80211 code handling this difference, no other
driver is currently using these flags.
