Some EoIB implementations utilise an EoIB-to-Ethernet gateway device
that does not perform a FullMember join to the multicast group for the
EoIB broadcast domain. This has various exciting side-effects, such
as requiring every EoIB node to send every broadcast packet twice.
As an added bonus, the gateway may also break the EoIB MAC address to
GID mapping protocol by sending Ethernet-sourced packets from the
wrong QPN.

[eoib] Allow the multicast group to be forcefully created
Some EoIB implementations require each individual EoIB node to create
the multicast group for the EoIB broadcast domain.
It is left as an exercise for the interested reader to determine how
such an implementation might ever allow the parameters of such a
multicast group to be changed without requiring a simultaneous upgrade
of every driver on every operating system on every machine currently
attached to the fabric.

EoIB is a fairly simple protocol in which raw Ethernet frames
(excluding the CRC) are encapsulated within Infiniband Unreliable
Datagrams, with a four-byte fixed EoIB header (which conveys no actual
information). The Ethernet broadcast domain is provided by a
multicast group, similar to the IPoIB IPv4 multicast group.
The mapping from Ethernet MAC addresses to Infiniband address vectors
is achieved by snooping incoming traffic and building a peer cache
which can then be used to map a MAC address into a port GID. The
address vector is completed using a path record lookup, as for IPoIB.
Note that this requires every packet to include a GRH.
Add basic support for EoIB devices. This driver is substantially
derived from the IPoIB driver. There is currently no mechanism for
automatically creating EoIB devices.

[ipoib] Resimplify test for received broadcast packets
Commit e62e52b ("[ipoib] Simplify test for received broadcast
packets") relies upon the multicast LID being present in the
destination address vector as passed to ipoib_complete_recv().
Unfortunately, this information is not present in many Infiniband
devices' completion queue entries.
Fix by testing instead for the presence of a multicast GID.

ath_rx_init() demonstrates some serious confusion over how to use
pointers, resulting in (uint32_t*)NULL being used as a temporary
variable. This does not end well.
The broken code in question is performing manual alignment of I/O
buffers, which can now be achieved more simply using alloc_iob_raw().
Fix by removing ath_rxbuf_alloc() entirely.

Some protocols (such as ARP) may modify the received packet and re-use
the same I/O buffer for transmission of a reply. The SMSC95XX
transmit header is larger than the receive header: the re-used I/O
buffer therefore does not have sufficient headroom for the transmit
header, and the ARP reply will therefore fail to be transmitted. This
is essentially the same problem as in commit 2e72d10 ("[ncm] Reserve
headroom in received packets").
Fix by reserving sufficient space at the start of each received packet
to allow for the difference between the lengths of the transmit and
receive headers.
This problem is not caught by the current driver development test
suite (documented at http://ipxe.org/dev/driver), since even the large
file transfer tests tend to completely sufficiently quickly that there
is no need for the server to ever send an ARP request. The failure
shows up only when using a very slow protocol such as RFC7440-enhanced
TFTP (as used by Windows Deployment Services).

The LED pins are configured by default as GPIO inputs. While it is
conceivable that a board might actually use these pins as GPIOs, no
such board is known to exist.
The Linux smsc95xx driver configures these pins unconditionally as LED
outputs. Assume that it is safe to do likewise.

[smsc95xx] Add driver for SMSC/Microchip LAN95xx USB Ethernet NICs
Tested using QEMU and usbredir to expose the LAN9512 chip present on a
Raspberry Pi.
There is a known issue with the LAN9512: an extra two bytes are
appended to every transmitted packet. These two bytes comprise:
{ 0x00, 0x08 } if packet length == 0 (mod 8)
{ CRC[0], 0x00 } if packet length == 7 (mod 8)
{ CRC[0], CRC[1] } otherwise
The extra bytes are appended whether the Ethernet CRC is generated
manually or added automatically by the hardware. The issue occurs
with the Linux kernel driver as well as the iPXE driver. It appears
to be an undocumented hardware errata.
TCP/IP traffic is not affected, since the IP header length field
causes the extraneous bytes to be discarded by the receiver. However,
protocols that rely on the length of the Ethernet frame (such as FCoE
or iPXE's "lotest" protocol) will be unusable on this hardware.

On some models (notably ICH), the PHY reset mechanism appears to be
broken. In particular, the PHY_CTRL register will be correctly loaded
from NVM but the values will not be propagated to the "OEM bits" PHY
register. This typically has the effect of dropping the link speed to
10Mbps.
Since the original version of this driver in commit 945e428 ("[intel]
Replace driver for Intel Gigabit NICs"), we have always worked around
this problem by skipping the PHY reset if the link is already up.
Enhance this workaround by explicitly checking for known-broken PCI
IDs.

The Infiniband link status change callback ipoib_link_state_changed()

will not be an IPoIB queue pair to be joined to the IPv4 broadcast

Multicast MAC addresses will never have REMAC cache entries, and the
corresponding multicast IPoIB MAC address cannot be obtained simply by
issuing an ARP request.
For the trivial volume of multicast packets that we expect to send in
any realistic scenario, the simplest solution is to send them as
broadcasts instead.

[ipoib] Attempt to generate ARPs as needed to repopulate REMAC cache
The only way to map an eIPoIB MAC address (REMAC) to an IPoIB MAC
address is to intercept an incoming ARP request or reply.
If we do not have an REMAC cache entry for a particular destination
MAC address, then we cannot transmit the packet. This can arise in at
least two situations:
- An external program (e.g. a PXE NBP using the UNDI API) may attempt
to transmit to a destination MAC address that has been obtained by
some method other than ARP.
- Memory pressure may have caused REMAC cache entries to be
discarded. This is fairly likely on a busy network, since REMAC
cache entries are created for all received (broadcast) ARP
requests. (We can't sensibly avoid creating these cache entries,
since they are required in order to send an ARP reply, and when we
are being used via the UNDI API we may have no knowledge of which
IP addresses are "ours".)
Attempt to ameliorate the situation by generating a semi-spurious ARP
request whenever we find a missing REMAC cache entry. This will
hopefully trigger an ARP reply, which would then provide us with the
information required to populate the REMAC cache.
