Commit fb8696ab ("can: gw: synchronize rcu operations before removing gw job entry") added three synchronize_rcu() calls to make sure one rcu grace period was observed before freeing a "struct cgw_job" (which are tiny objects). This should be converted to call_rcu() to avoid adding delays in device / network dismantles. Use the rcu_head that was already in struct cgw_job, not yet used.

Subbaraya Sundeep says: ==================== Add ethtool support for completion queue event size After a packet is sent or received by NIC then NIC posts a completion queue event which consists of transmission status (like send success or error) and received status(like pointers to packet fragments). These completion events may also use a ring similar to rx and tx rings. This patchset introduces cqe-size ethtool parameter to modify the size of the completion queue event if NIC hardware has that capability. A bigger completion queue event can have more receive buffer pointers inturn NIC can transfer a bigger frame from wire as long as hardware(MAC) receive frame size limit is not exceeded. Patch 1 adds support setting/getting cqe-size via ethtool -G and ethtool -g.

I missed the obvious case where netif_ix() is invoked from hard-IRQ context. Disabling bottom halves is only needed in process context. This ensures that the code remains on the current CPU and that the soft-interrupts are processed at local_bh_enable() time. In hard- and soft-interrupt context this is already the case and the soft-interrupts will be processed once the context is left (at irq-exit time). Disable bottom halves if neither hard-interrupts nor soft-interrupts are disabled. Update the kernel-doc, mention that interrupts must be enabled if invoked from process context.

Hans Schultz says: ==================== Add support for locked bridge ports (for 802.1X) This series starts by adding support for SA filtering to the bridge, which is then allowed to be offloaded to switchdev devices. Furthermore an offloading implementation is supplied for the mv88e6xxx driver. Public Local Area Networks are often deployed such that there is a risk of unauthorized or unattended clients getting access to the LAN. To prevent such access we introduce SA filtering, such that ports designated as secure ports are set in locked mode, so that only authorized source MAC addresses are given access by adding them to the bridges forwarding database. Incoming packets with source MAC addresses that are not in the forwarding database of the bridge are discarded. It is then the task of user space daemons to populate the bridge's forwarding database with static entries of authorized entities. The most common approach is to use the IEEE 802.1X protocol to take care of the authorization of allowed users to gain access by opening for the source address of the authorized host. With the current use of the bridge parameter in hostapd, there is a limitation in using this for IEEE 802.1X port authentication. It depends on hostapd attaching the port on which it has a successful authentication to the bridge, but that only allows for a single authentication per port. This patch set allows for the use of IEEE 802.1X port authentication in a more general network context with multiple 802.1X aware hosts behind a single port as depicted, which is a commonly used commercial use-case, as it is only the number of available entries in the forwarding database that limits the number of authenticated clients. +--------------------------------+ | | | Bridge/Authenticator | | | +-------------+------------------+ 802.1X port | | | +------+-------+ | | | Hub/Switch | | | +-+----------+-+ | | +--+--+ +--+--+ | | | | Hosts | a | | b | . . . | | | | +-----+ +-----+ The 802.1X standard involves three different components, a Supplicant (Host), an Authenticator (Network Access Point) and an Authentication Server which is typically a Radius server. This patch set thus enables the bridge module together with an authenticator application to serve as an Authenticator on designated ports. For the bridge to become an IEEE 802.1X Authenticator, a solution using hostapd with the bridge driver can be found at https://github.com/westermo/hostapd/tree/bridge_driver . The relevant components work transparently in relation to if it is the bridge module or the offloaded switchcore case that is in use. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

drop_monitor is using an unique list on which all netdevices in the host have an element, regardless of their netns. This scales poorly, not only at device unregister time (what I caught during my netns dismantle stress tests), but also at packet processing time whenever trace_napi_poll_hit() is called. If the intent was to avoid adding one pointer in 'struct net_device' then surely we prefer O(1) behavior.

Realtek switches in the rtl8365mb family can access the PHY registers of the internal PHYs via the switch registers. This method is called indirect access. At a high level, the indirect PHY register access method involves reading and writing some special switch registers in a particular sequence. This works for both SMI and MDIO connected switches. Currently the rtl8365mb driver does not take any care to serialize the aforementioned access to the switch registers. In particular, it is permitted for other driver code to access other switch registers while the indirect PHY register access is ongoing. Locking is only done at the regmap level. This, however, is a bug: concurrent register access, even to unrelated switch registers, risks corrupting the PHY register value read back via the indirect access method described above. Arınç reported that the switch sometimes returns nonsense data when reading the PHY registers. In particular, a value of 0 causes the kernel's PHY subsystem to think that the link is down, but since most reads return correct data, the link then flip-flops between up and down over a period of time. The aforementioned bug can be readily observed by: 1. Enabling ftrace events for regmap and mdio 2. Polling BSMR PHY register for a connected port; it should always read the same (e.g. 0x79ed) 3. Wait for step 2 to give a different value Example command for step 2: while true; do phytool read swp2/2/0x01; done On my i.MX8MM, the above steps will yield a bogus value for the BSMR PHY register within a matter of seconds. The interleaved register access it then evident in the trace log: kworker/3:4-70 [003] ....... 1927.139849: regmap_reg_write: ethernet-switch reg=1004 val=bd phytool-16816 [002] ....... 1927.139979: regmap_reg_read: ethernet-switch reg=1f01 val=0 kworker/3:4-70 [003] ....... 1927.140381: regmap_reg_read: ethernet-switch reg=1005 val=0 phytool-16816 [002] ....... 1927.140468: regmap_reg_read: ethernet-switch reg=1d15 val=a69 kworker/3:4-70 [003] ....... 1927.140864: regmap_reg_read: ethernet-switch reg=1003 val=0 phytool-16816 [002] ....... 1927.140955: regmap_reg_write: ethernet-switch reg=1f02 val=2041 kworker/3:4-70 [003] ....... 1927.141390: regmap_reg_read: ethernet-switch reg=1002 val=0 phytool-16816 [002] ....... 1927.141479: regmap_reg_write: ethernet-switch reg=1f00 val=1 kworker/3:4-70 [003] ....... 1927.142311: regmap_reg_write: ethernet-switch reg=1004 val=be phytool-16816 [002] ....... 1927.142410: regmap_reg_read: ethernet-switch reg=1f01 val=0 kworker/3:4-70 [003] ....... 1927.142534: regmap_reg_read: ethernet-switch reg=1005 val=0 phytool-16816 [002] ....... 1927.142618: regmap_reg_read: ethernet-switch reg=1f04 val=0 phytool-16816 [002] ....... 1927.142641: mdio_access: SMI-0 read phy:0x02 reg:0x01 val:0x0000 <- ?! kworker/3:4-70 [003] ....... 1927.143037: regmap_reg_read: ethernet-switch reg=1001 val=0 kworker/3:4-70 [003] ....... 1927.143133: regmap_reg_read: ethernet-switch reg=1000 val=2d89 kworker/3:4-70 [003] ....... 1927.143213: regmap_reg_write: ethernet-switch reg=1004 val=be kworker/3:4-70 [003] ....... 1927.143291: regmap_reg_read: ethernet-switch reg=1005 val=0 kworker/3:4-70 [003] ....... 1927.143368: regmap_reg_read: ethernet-switch reg=1003 val=0 kworker/3:4-70 [003] ....... 1927.143443: regmap_reg_read: ethernet-switch reg=1002 val=6 The kworker here is polling MIB counters for stats, as evidenced by the register 0x1004 that we are writing to (RTL8365MB_MIB_ADDRESS_REG). This polling is performed every 3 seconds, but is just one example of such unsynchronized access. In Arınç's case, the driver was not using the switch IRQ, so the PHY subsystem was itself doing polling analogous to phytool in the above example. A test module was created [see second Link] to simulate such spurious switch register accesses while performing indirect PHY register reads and writes. Realtek was also consulted to confirm whether this is a known issue or not. The conclusion of these lines of inquiry is as follows: 1. Reading of PHY registers via indirect access will be aborted if, after executing the read operation (via a write to the INDIRECT_ACCESS_CTRL_REG), any register is accessed, other than INDIRECT_ACCESS_STATUS_REG. 2. The PHY register indirect read is only complete when INDIRECT_ACCESS_STATUS_REG reads zero. 3. The INDIRECT_ACCESS_DATA_REG, which is read to get the result of the PHY read, will contain the result of the last successful read operation. If there was spurious register access and the indirect read was aborted, then this register is not guaranteed to hold anything meaningful and the PHY read will silently fail. 4. PHY writes do not appear to be affected by this mechanism. 5. Other similar access routines, such as for MIB counters, although similar to the PHY indirect access method, are actually table access. Table access is not affected by spurious reads or writes of other registers. However, concurrent table access is not allowed. Currently this is protected via mib_lock, so there is nothing to fix. The above statements are corroborated both via the test module and through consultation with Realtek. In particular, Realtek states that this is simply a property of the hardware design and is not a hardware bug. To fix this problem, one must guard against regmap access while the PHY indirect register read is executing. Fix this by using the newly introduced "nolock" regmap in all PHY-related functions, and by aquiring the regmap mutex at the top level of the PHY register access callbacks. Although no issue has been observed with PHY register _writes_, this change also serializes the indirect access method there. This is done purely as a matter of convenience and for reasons of symmetry.

Currently there is no way for Realtek DSA subdrivers to serialize consecutive regmap accesses. In preparation for a bugfix relating to indirect PHY register access - which involves a series of regmap reads and writes - add a facility for subdrivers to serialize their regmap access. Specifically, a mutex is added to the driver private data structure and the standard regmap is initialized with custom lock/unlock ops which use this mutex. Then, a "nolock" variant of the regmap is added, which is functionally equivalent to the existing regmap except that regmap locking is disabled. Functions that wish to serialize a sequence of regmap accesses may then lock the newly introduced driver-owned mutex before using the nolock regmap. Doing things this way means that subdriver code that doesn't care about serialized register access - i.e. the vast majority of code - needn't worry about synchronizing register access with an external lock: it can just continue to use the original regmap. Another advantage of this design is that, while regmaps with locking disabled do not expose a debugfs interface for obvious reasons, there still exists the original regmap which does expose this interface. This interface remains safe to use even combined with driver codepaths that use the nolock regmap, because said codepaths will use the same mutex to synchronize access. With respect to disadvantages, it can be argued that having near-duplicate regmaps is confusing. However, the naming is rather explicit, and examples will abound. Finally, while we are at it, rename realtek_smi_mdio_regmap_config to realtek_smi_regmap_config. This makes it consistent with the naming realtek_mdio_regmap_config in realtek-mdio.c.
