I've got reports that the Intel I-218V NIC in Intel NUC5i5RYH systems used
as a PTP slave experiences random ~10 hour clock jumps, which are resolved
if the same workaround for the 82574 and 82583 is employed, so set the
appropriate flag2 in e1000_pch_lpt_info too.

This prevents signed bitshift issues when the shift would overwrite the
signed bit, and prevents making this mistake in the future when copying
and modifying code.
Use GENMASK or the unsigned postfix for cases which aren't suitable for

There have been bugs caused by HW ULP configuration settings not being
properly cleared after cable connect in V-Pro capable systems.
This caused HW to get out of sync occasionally.
The fix ensures that ULP settings are cleared in HW after
LAN cable re-connect.

We were using s64 for lat_ns (latency nano-second value) since in
our calculations a negative value could be a resultant. For negative
values, we then assign lat_ns to be zero, so the value passed to
do_div() was never negative, but do_div() expects the argument type
to be u64, so do a cast to resolve a compile warning seen on
PowerPC.

When the VLAN_HLEN was added to the calculation for the maximum frame size
there seems to have been a number of issues added to the driver.
The first issue is that in some cases the maximum frame size for a device
never really reached the actual maximum frame size as the VLAN header
length was not included the calculation for that value. As a result some
parts only supported a maximum frame size of either 1496 in the case of
parts that didn't support jumbo frames, and 8996 in the case of the parts
that do.
The second issue is the fact that there were several checks that weren't
updated so as a result setting an MTU of 1500 was treated as enabling jumbo
frames as the calculated value was 1522 instead of 1518. I have addressed
those by replacing ETH_FRAME_LEN with VLAN_ETH_FRAME_LEN where appropriate.
The final issue was the fact that lowering the MTU below 1500 would cause
the driver to allocate 2K buffers for the rings. This is an old issue that
was fixed several years ago in igb/ixgbe and I am addressing now by just
replacing == with a <= so that we always just round up to 1522 for anything
that isn't a jumbo frame.

On I217 and newer hardware, EEE is enabled in the PHY by the software
when link is up and disabled by the hardware when link is lost.
To enable EEE in Sx (When both ends of the link support, and are enabled
for, EEE and 100Mbps), we need to disable LPLU and configure the PHY to
automatically enable EEE when link is up, since there will be no software
to complete the task.
To configure this in the PHY, the Auto Enable LPI bit in the Low Power
Idle GPIO Control register must be set. For normal operation in S0, this
bit must be cleared.

Previously, the check to turn on promiscuous mode only took into account
the total number of SHared Receive Address (SHRA) registers and if the
request was for a register within that range. It is possible that the
Management Engine might have locked a number of SHRA and not allowed a
new address to be written to the requested register.
Add a function to determine the number of unlocked SHRA registers. Then
determine if the number of registers available is sufficient for our needs,
if not then return -ENOMEM so that UNICAST PROMISC mode is activated.
Since the method by which ME claims SHRA registers is non-deterministic,
also add a return value to the function attempting to write an address
to a SHRA, and return a -E1000_ERR_CONFIG if the write fails. The error
will be passed up the function chain and allow the driver to also set
UNICAST PROMISC when this happens.

The netlink conflict dealt with moving to netlink_capable() and

Several customers have reported a link flap issue on 82579. The symptoms
are random and intermittent link losses when 82579 is connected to specific
link partners. Issue has been root caused as interoperability problem
between 82579 and at least some Broadcom PHYs in the Energy Efficient
Ethernet wake mechanism.
To fix the issue, we are disabling the Phase Locked Loop shutdown in 100M
Low Power Idle. This solution will cause an increase of power in 100M EEE
link. It will cost additional 28mW in this specific mode.

Previous commit c3a0dce35af0 fixed an overrun for the RAR on i218 devices.
This commit also attempted to homogenize the RAR/SHRA access for all parts
accessed by the e1000e driver. This change introduced an error for
assigning MAC addresses to guest OS's for 82579 devices.
Only RAR[0] is accessible to the driver for 82579 parts, and additional
addresses must be placed into the SHRA[L|H] registers. The rar_entry_count
was changed in the previous commit to an inaccurate value that accounted
for all RAR and SHRA registers, not just the ones usable by the driver.
This patch fixes the count to the correct value and adjusts the
e1000_rar_set_pch2lan() function to user the correct index.

ULP is a power saving feature that reduces the power consumption of the
PHY when a cable is not connected.
ULP is gated on the following conditions:
1) The hardware must support ULP. Currently this is only I218
devices from Intel
2) ULP is initiated by the driver, so, no driver results in no ULP.
3) ULP's implementation utilizes Runtime Power Management to toggle its
execution. ULP is enabled/disabled based on the state of Runtime PM.
4) ULP is not active when wake-on-unicast, multicast or broadcast is active
as these features are mutually-exclusive.
Since the PHY is in an unavailable state while ULP is active, any access
of the PHY registers will fail. This is resolved by utilizing kernel
calls that cause the device to exit Runtime PM (e.g. pm_runtime_get_sync)
and then, after PHY access is complete, allow the device to resume
Runtime PM (e.g. pm_runtime_put_sync).
Under certain conditions, toggling the LANPHYPC is necessary to disable
ULP mode. Break out existing code to toggle LANPHYPC to a new function
to avoid code duplication.

On a ME enabled system with the cable out, the driver init flow would
generate an erroneous message indicating that resets were being blocked
by an active ME session. Cause was ME clearing the semaphore bit to
block further PHY resets for up to 50 msec during power-on/cycle. After
this interval, ME would re-set the bit and allow PHY resets.
To resolve this, change the flow of e1000e_phy_hw_reset_generic() to
utilize a delay and retry method. Poll the FWSM register to minimize
any extra time added to the flow. If the delay times out at 100ms
(checked in 10msec increments), then return the value E1000_BLK_PHY_RESET,
as this is the accurate state of the PHY. Attempting to alter just the
call to e1000e_phy_hw_reset_generic() in e1000_init_phy_workarounds_pchlan()
just caused the problem to move further down the flow.

Tx hang is an unintended consequence of another workaround that is in the
EEPROM for an issue with the firmware at 10Mbps when K1 (a power mode of
the MAC-PHY interconnect) is enabled. The issue is resolved by setting
appropriate Tx re-transmission timeouts in the PHY and associated K1 entry
times in the MAC to allow enough transmissions to occur without triggering
a Tx hang. A similar change is needed when linked at 10Mbps to improve
latency.

Two 82579 LOMs connected via a 10Mb hub experience extraordinarily low
performance. This is because 82579 is excessively aggressive on transmit
at 10Mb half-duplex and will not provide sufficient time for the link
partner to transmit. When the link partner is also 82579, the result is a
lot of collisions (and corresponding re-transmits) that cause the poor
performance. To work-around this issue, significantly increase the IPG in
the MAC to allow enough gap for the link partner to transmit and reduce the
Rx latency in the analog PHY to 0 to reduce the number of collisions.
