      ====================
      QorIQ DPAA FMan erratum A050385 workaround
      
      Changes in v2:
       - added CONFIG_DPAA_ERRATUM_A050385
       - removed unnecessary parenthesis
       - changed alignment defines to use only decimal values
      
      The patch set implements the workaround for FMan erratum A050385:
      
      FMAN DMA read or writes under heavy traffic load may cause FMAN
      internal resource leak; thus stopping further packet processing.
      To reproduce this issue when the workaround is not applied, one
      needs to ensure the FMan DMA transaction queue is already full
      when a transaction split occurs so the system must be under high
      traffic load (i.e. multiple ports at line rate). After the errata
      occurs, the traffic stops. The only SoC impacted by this is the
      LS1043A, the other ARM DPAA 1 SoC or the PPC DPAA 1 SoCs do not
      have this erratum.
      
      The FMAN internal queue can overflow when FMAN splits single
      read or write transactions into multiple smaller transactions
      such that more than 17 AXI transactions are in flight from FMAN
      to interconnect. When the FMAN internal queue overflows, it can
      stall further packet processing. The issue can occur with any one
      of the following three conditions:
      
        1. FMAN AXI transaction crosses 4K address boundary (Errata
               A010022)
        2. FMAN DMA address for an AXI transaction is not 16 byte
               aligned, i.e. the last 4 bits of an address are non-zero
        3. Scatter Gather (SG) frames have more than one SG buffer in
               the SG list and any one of the buffers, except the last
               buffer in the SG list has data size that is not a multiple
               of 16 bytes, i.e., other than 16, 32, 48, 64, etc.
      
      With any one of the above three conditions present, there is
      likelihood of stalled FMAN packet processing, especially under
      stress with multiple ports injecting line-rate traffic.
      
      To avoid situations that stall FMAN packet processing, all of the
      above three conditions must be avoided; therefore, configure the
      system with the following rules:
      
        1. Frame buffers must not span a 4KB address boundary, unless
               the frame start address is 256 byte aligned
        2. All FMAN DMA start addresses (for example, BMAN buffer
               address, FD[address] + FD[offset]) are 16B aligned
        3. SG table and buffer addresses are 16B aligned and the size
               of SG buffers are multiple of 16 bytes, except for the last
               SG buffer that can be of any size.
      
      Additional workaround notes:
      - Address alignment of 64 bytes is recommended for maximally
      efficient system bus transactions (although 16 byte alignment is
      sufficient to avoid the stall condition)
      - To support frame sizes that are larger than 4K bytes, there are
      two options:
        1. Large single buffer frames that span a 4KB page boundary can
               be converted into SG frames to avoid transaction splits at
               the 4KB boundary,
        2. Align the large single buffer to 256B address boundaries,
               ensure that the frame address plus offset is 256B aligned.
      - If software generated SG frames have buffers that are unaligned
      and with random non-multiple of 16 byte lengths, before
      transmitting such frames via FMAN, frames will need to be copied
      into a new single buffer or multiple buffer SG frame that is
      compliant with the three rules listed above.

      mptcp: always include dack if possible. · 2398e399
      Paolo Abeni authored
      Currently passive MPTCP socket can skip including the DACK
      option - if the peer sends data before accept() completes.
      
      The above happens because the msk 'can_ack' flag is set
      only after the accept() call.
      
      Such missing DACK option may cause - as per RFC spec -
      unwanted fallback to TCP.
      
      This change addresses the issue using the key material
      available in the current subflow, if any, to create a suitable
      dack option when msk ack seq is not yet available.

      veth: ignore peer tx_dropped when counting local rx_dropped · e25d5dbc
      Jiang Lidong authored
      When local NET_RX backlog is full due to traffic overrun,
      peer veth tx_dropped counter increases. At that time, list
      local veth stats, rx_dropped has double value of peer
      tx_dropped, even bigger than transmit packets by peer.
      
      In NET_RX softirq process, if any packet drop case happens,
      it increases dev's rx_dropped counter and returns NET_RX_DROP.
      
      At veth tx side, it records any error returned from peer netif_rx
      into local dev tx_dropped counter.
      
      In veth get stats process, it puts local dev rx_dropped and
      peer dev tx_dropped into together as local rx_drpped value.
      So that it shows double value of real dropped packets number in
      this case.
      
      This patch ignores peer tx_dropped when counting local rx_dropped,
      since peer tx_dropped is duplicated to local rx_dropped at most cases.

      sfc: complete the next packet when we receive a timestamp · 3b4f06c7
      Tom Zhao authored
      We now ignore the "completion" event when using tx queue timestamping,
      and only pay attention to the two (high and low) timestamp events. The
      NIC will send a pair of timestamp events for every packet transmitted.
      The current firmware may merge the completion events, and it is possible
      that future versions may reorder the completion and timestamp events.
      As such the completion event is not useful.
      
      Without this patch in place a merged completion event on a queue with
      timestamping will cause a "spurious TX completion" error. This affects
      SFN8000-series adapters.

      net: hns3: fix a not link up issue when fibre port supports autoneg · 68e1006f
      Jian Shen authored
      When fibre port supports auto-negotiation, the IMP(Intelligent
      Management Process) processes the speed of auto-negotiation
      and the  user's speed separately.
      For below case, the port will get a not link up problem.
      step 1: disables auto-negotiation and sets speed to A, then
      the driver's MAC speed will be updated to A.
      step 2: enables auto-negotiation and MAC gets negotiated
      speed B, then the driver's MAC speed will be updated to B
      through querying in periodical task.
      step 3: MAC gets new negotiated speed A.
      step 4: disables auto-negotiation and sets speed to B before
      periodical task query new MAC speed A, the driver will  ignore
      the speed configuration.
      
      This patch fixes it by skipping speed and duplex checking when
      fibre port supports auto-negotiation.
      
      Fixes: 22f48e24 ("net: hns3: add autoneg and change speed support for fibre port")

      slip: make slhc_compress() more robust against malicious packets · 110a40df
      Eric Dumazet authored
      Before accessing various fields in IPV4 network header
      and TCP header, make sure the packet :
      
      - Has IP version 4 (ip->version == 4)
      - Has not a silly network length (ip->ihl >= 5)
      - Is big enough to hold network and transport headers
      - Has not a silly TCP header size (th->doff >= sizeof(struct tcphdr) / 4)

      netfilter: nf_tables: fix infinite loop when expr is not available · 1d305ba4
      Florian Westphal authored
      nft will loop forever if the kernel doesn't support an expression:
      
      1. nft_expr_type_get() appends the family specific name to the module list.
      2. -EAGAIN is returned to nfnetlink, nfnetlink calls abort path.
      3. abort path sets ->done to true and calls request_module for the
         expression.
      4. nfnetlink replays the batch, we end up in nft_expr_type_get() again.
      5. nft_expr_type_get attempts to append family-specific name. This
         one already exists on the list, so we continue
      6. nft_expr_type_get adds the generic expression name to the module
         list. -EAGAIN is returned, nfnetlink calls abort path.
      7. abort path encounters the family-specific expression which
         has 'done' set, so it gets removed.
      8. abort path requests the generic expression name, sets done to true.
      9. batch is replayed.
      
      If the expression could not be loaded, then we will end up back at 1),
      because the family-specific name got removed and the cycle starts again.
      
      Note that userspace can SIGKILL the nft process to stop the cycle, but
      the desired behaviour is to return an error after the generic expr name
      fails to load the expression.
