slip and plip both use a couple of SIOCDEVPRIVATE ioctl commands that overload the ifreq layout in a way that is incompatible with compat mode. Convert to use ndo_siocdevprivate to allow passing the data this way, but return an error in compat mode anyway because the private structure is still incompatible. This could be fixed as well to make compat work properly. Signed-off-by:

The pegasus and rtl8150 drivers use SIOCDEVPRIVATE ioctls to access their MII registers, in place of the normal commands. This is broken for all compat ioctls today. Change to ndo_siocdevprivate to fix it. Cc: Petko Manolov <petkan@nucleusys.com> Cc: linux-usb@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by:

The skfddi driver has a private ioctl and passes the data correctly through ifr_data, but the use of a pointer in s_skfp_ioctl is broken in compat mode. Change the driver to use ndo_siocdevprivate and disallow calling it in compat mode until a conversion handler is added. Cc: "Maciej W. Rozycki" <macro@orcam.me.uk> Signed-off-by:

The private ioctls in eql pass the arguments correctly through ifr_data, but the slaving_request_t and slave_config_t structures are incompatible with compat mode and need special conversion code in the driver. Convert to siocdevprivate for now, and return an error when called in compat mode. Signed-off-by:

appletalk has three SIOCDEVPRIVATE ioctl commands that are broken in compat mode because the passed structure contains a pointer. Change it over to ndo_siocdevprivate for consistency and make it return an error when called in compat mode. This could be fixed if there are still users. Signed-off-by:

The bonding driver supports two command codes for each operation: one in the SIOCDEVPRIVATE range and another one with the same definition but a unique command code. Only the second set currently works in compat mode, as the ifr_data expansion overwrites part of the ifr_slave field. Move the private ones into ndo_siocdevprivate and change the implementation to call the other function. This makes both version work correctly.

The tulip driver has a debugging method over ioctl built-in, but it does not actually check the command type, which may end up leading to random behavior when trying to run other ioctls on it. Change the driver to use ndo_siocdevprivate and limit the execution further to the first private command code. If anyone still has tools to run these debugging commands, they might have to be patched for it if they pass different ioctl command. The function has existed in this form since the driver was merged in Linux-1.1.86. Cc: linux-parisc@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by:

rtl8188eu has an "android private" ioctl command multiplexer that is not currently safe for use in compat mode because of its triple-indirect pointer. rtl8723bs uses a different interface on the SIOCDEVPRIVATE command, based on the iwpriv data structure Both also have normal unreachable iwpriv commands, and all of the above should probably just get removed. For the moment, just switch over to the new interface. Cc: Larry Finger <Larry.Finger@lwfinger.net> Signed-off-by:

SIOCDEVPRIVATE ioctl commands are mainly used in really old drivers, and they have a number of problems: - They hide behind the normal .ndo_do_ioctl function that is also used for other things in modern drivers, so it's hard to spot a driver that actually uses one of these - Since drivers use a number different calling conventions, it is impossible to support compat mode for them in a generic way. - With all drivers using the same 16 commands codes, there is no way to introspect the data being passed through things like strace. Add a new net_device_ops callback pointer, to address the first two of these. Separating them from .ndo_do_ioctl makes it easy to grep for drivers with a .ndo_siocdevprivate callback, and the unwieldy name hopefully makes it easier to spot in code review. By passing the ifreq structure and the ifr_data pointer separately, it is no longer necessary to overload these, and the driver can use either one for a given command.

Neal Cardwell says: ==================== more accurate DSACK processing for RACK-TLP This patch series includes two minor improvements to tighten up the accuracy of the processing of incoming DSACK information, so that RACK-TLP behavior is faster and more precise: first, to ensure we detect packet loss in some extra corner cases; and second, to avoid growing the RACK reordering window (and delaying fast recovery) in cases where it seems clear we don't need to. ==================== Signed-off-by: -
Neal Cardwell authored
Previously, a DSACK could expand the RACK reordering window when no reordering has been seen, and/or when the DSACK was due to an unnecessary TLP retransmit (rather than a spurious fast recovery due to reordering). This could result in unnecessarily growing the RACK reordering window and thus unnecessarily delaying RACK-based fast recovery episodes. To avoid these issues, this commit tightens the conditions under which a DSACK triggers the RACK reordering window to grow, so that a connection only expands its RACK reordering window if: (a) reordering has been seen in the connection (b) a DSACKed range does not match the most recent TLP retransmit Signed-off-by:

Currently, all drivers depend on the bool CONFIG_NET_SWITCHDEV, but only the drivers that call some sort of function exported by the bridge, like br_vlan_enabled() or whatever, have an extra dependency on CONFIG_BRIDGE. Since the blamed commit, all switchdev drivers have a functional dependency upon switchdev_bridge_port_{,un}offload(), which is a pair of functions exported by the bridge module and not by the bridge-independent part of CONFIG_NET_SWITCHDEV. Problems appear when we have: CONFIG_BRIDGE=m CONFIG_NET_SWITCHDEV=y CONFIG_TI_CPSW_SWITCHDEV=y because cpsw, am65_cpsw and sparx5 will then be built-in but they will call a symbol exported by a loadable module. This is not possible and will result in the following build error: drivers/net/ethernet/ti/cpsw_new.o: in function `cpsw_netdevice_event': drivers/net/ethernet/ti/cpsw_new.c:1520: undefined reference to `switchdev_bridge_port_offload' drivers/net/ethernet/ti/cpsw_new.c:1537: undefined reference to `switchdev_bridge_port_unoffload' As mentioned, the other switchdev drivers don't suffer from this because switchdev_bridge_port_offload() is not the first symbol exported by the bridge that they are calling, so they already needed to deal with this in the same way.

In the cited commit, copy_to_user() got called with the wrong pointer, instead of passing the actual buffer ptr to copy from, a pointer to the pointer got passed, which causes a buffer overflow calltrace to pop up when executing "ethtool -x ethX".

Alex Elder says: ==================== net: ipa: defer taking uC proxy clock This series rearranges some of the IPA initialization code. The first patch gets rid of two trivial setup and teardown functions, open-coding them in their callers instead. The second patch has memory regions get configured before endpoints. IPA interrupts do not depend on GSI being initialized. Therefore they can be initialized in the config phase rather than waiting for setup. The third patch moves this initialization earlier; memory regions must already be defined, so it's done after memory config. The microcontroller also has no dependency on GSI, though it does require IPA interrupts to be configured. The fourth patch moves microcontroller initialization so it too happens during the config phase rather than setup. Finally, we currently take a "proxy clock" for the microcontroller during the config phase, dropping it only after we learn the microcontroller is initialized. But microcontroller initialization is started by the modem, so there's no point in taking that clock reference before we know the modem has booted. So the last patch arranges to wait to take the "proxy clock" for the microcontroller until we know the modem is about to boot. ==================== Signed-off-by: -

The first time it's booted, the modem loads and starts the IPA-resident microcontroller. Once the microcontroller has completed its initialization, it notifies the AP it's "ready" by sending an INIT_COMPLETED response message. Until it receives that microcontroller message, the AP must ensure the IPA core clock remains operational. Currently, a "proxy" clock reference is taken in ipa_uc_config(), dropping it again once the message is received. However there could be a long delay between when ipa_config() completes and when modem actually starts. And because the microcontroller gets loaded by the modem, there's no need to get the modem "proxy clock" until the first time it starts. Create a new function ipa_uc_clock() which takes the "proxy" clock reference for the microcontroller. Call it when we get remoteproc SSR notification that the modem is about to start. Keep an additional flag to record whether this proxy clock reference needs to be dropped at shutdown time, and issue a warning if we get the microcontroller message either before the clock reference is taken, or after it has already been dropped. Drop the nearby use of "hh" length modifiers, which are no longer encouraged in the kernel. Signed-off-by:

Initializing up the IPA-resident microcontroller requires the IPA clock, and sets up two IPA interrupt handlers, but this does not require GSI access. The interrupt handlers also require the clock to be enabled, and require the IPA memory regions to be configured, but neither requires GSI access. As a result, the microcontroller can be initialized during the "config" rather than "setup" phase of IPA initialization. Initialize the microcontroller in ipa_config() rather than ipa_setup(), and rename the called function ipa_uc_config(). Do the inverse in ipa_deconfig() rather than ipa_teardown(), and rename the function for that case ipa_uc_deconfig(). Signed-off-by:

Initialization of the IPA driver has several phases: - "init" phase can be done without any access to IPA hardware - "config" phase requires the IPA hardware to be clocked - "setup" phase requires the GSI layer to be functional Currently, initialization for the IPA interrupt handling code occurs in the setup phase. It requires access to the IPA hardware but does not need GSI, so it can be moved to the config phase instead. Call the interrupt configuration function early in ipa_config() rather than from ipa_setup(). Rename ipa_interrupt_setup() to be ipa_interrupt_config(), and ipa_interrupt_teardown() to be ipa_interupt_deconfig(), so their names properly indicate when they get called. Signed-off-by:

Alex Elder says: ==================== net: ipa: kill IPA_VALIDATION A few months ago I proposed cleaning up some code that validates certain things conditionally, arguing that doing so once is enough, thus doing so always should not be necessary. https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20210320141729.1956732-1-elder@linaro.org/ Leon Romanovsky felt strongly that this was a mistake, and in the end I agreed to change my plans. This series finally completes what I said I would do about this, ultimately eliminating the IPA_VALIDATION symbol and conditional code entirely. The first patch both extends and simplifies some validation done for IPA immediate commands, and performs those tests unconditionally. The second patch fixes a bug that wasn't normally exposed because of the conditional compilation (a reason Leon was right about this). It makes filter and routing table validation occur unconditionally. The third eliminates the remaining conditionally-defined code and removes the line in the Makefile used to enable validation. And the fourth removes all comments containing ipa_assert() statements, replacing most of them with WARN_ON() calls. ==================== Signed-off-by:

I've added commented assertions to record certain properties that can be assumed to hold in certain places in the IPA code. Convert these into real WARN_ON() calls so the assertions are actually checked, using the standard WARN_ON() mechanism. Where errors can be returned, return an error if a warning is triggered.
