net: intel: Use *-y instead of *-objs in Makefile

*-objs suffix is reserved rather for (user-space) host programs while

Let's correct the old usages of *-objs in Makefiles.

ixgbe/ixgbevf: fix XFRM_ALGO dependency

ixgbe/ixgbevf: fix XFRM_ALGO dependency

Based on the original work from Arnd Bergmann.

When XFRM_ALGO is not enabled, the new ixgbe IPsec code produces a
link error:

drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ixgbe/ixgbe_ipsec.o: In function `ixgbe_ipsec_vf_add_sa':
ixgbe_ipsec.c:(.text+0x1266): undefined reference to `xfrm_aead_get_byname'

Simply selecting XFRM_ALGO from here causes circular dependencies, so
to fix it, we probably want this slightly more complex solution that is
similar to what other drivers with XFRM offload do:

A separate Kconfig symbol now controls whether we include the IPsec
offload code. To keep the old behavior, this is left as 'default y'. The
dependency in XFRM_OFFLOAD still causes a circular dependency but is
not actually needed because this symbol is not user visible, so removing
that dependency on top makes it all work.

ixgbe: add AF_XDP zero-copy Rx support

This patch adds zero-copy Rx support for AF_XDP sockets. Instead of
allocating buffers of type MEM_TYPE_PAGE_SHARED, the Rx frames are
allocated as MEM_TYPE_ZERO_COPY when AF_XDP is enabled for a certain
queue.

All AF_XDP specific functions are added to a new file, ixgbe_xsk.c.

Note that when AF_XDP zero-copy is enabled, the XDP action XDP_PASS
will allocate a new buffer and copy the zero-copy frame prior passing
it to the kernel stack.

ptp: Enable clock drivers along with associated net/PHY drivers

Where a PTP clock driver is associated with a net or PHY driver, it
should be enabled automatically whenever that driver is enabled.
Therefore:

- Make PTP clock drivers select rather than depending on PTP_1588_CLOCK
- Remove separate boolean options for PTP clock drivers that are built
as part of net driver modules. (This also fixes cases where the PTP
subsystem is wrongly forced to be built-in.)
- Set 'default y' for PTP clock drivers that depend on specific net
drivers but are built separately

Th

ixgbe: Hardware Timestamping + PTP Hardware Clock (PHC)

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.

ixgbe: fix namespace issues when FCoE/DCB is not enabled

Resolve namespace issues when FCoE or DCB is not enabled.
The issue is with certain configurations we end up with namespace
problems. A simple example:

ixgbe_main.c
- defines func A()
- uses func A()

ixgbe_fcoe.c
- uses func A()

ixgbe.h
- has prototype for func A()

For default (FCoE included) all is good. But when it isn't the namespace
checker complains about how func A() could be static.

To resolve this, created a ixgbe_lib file to contain functions used
by DCB/FCoE and their helper functions so that they are always in
namespace whether or not DCB/FCoE is enabled.
