      net/mlx5e: Don't match on Geneve options in case option masks are all zero · 385d40b0
      Maor Dickman authored
      The cited change added offload support for Geneve options without verifying
      the validity of the options masks, this caused offload of rules with match
      on Geneve options with class,type and data masks which are zero to fail.
      
      Fix by ignoring the match on Geneve options in case option masks are
      all zero.

      net/mlx5e: Revert parameters on errors when changing PTP state without reset · 74640f09
      Maxim Mikityanskiy authored
      Port timestamping for PTP can be enabled/disabled while the channels are
      closed. In that case mlx5e_safe_switch_channels is skipped, and the
      preactivate hook is called directly. However, if that hook returns an
      error, the channel parameters must be reverted back to their old values.
      This commit adds missing handling on this case.

      net/mlx5e: When changing XDP program without reset, take refs for XSK RQs · e5eb0134
      Maxim Mikityanskiy authored
      Each RQ (including XSK RQs) takes a reference to the XDP program. When
      an XDP program is attached or detached, the channels and queues are
      recreated, however, there is a special flow for changing an active XDP
      program to another one. In that flow, channels and queues stay alive,
      but the refcounts of the old and new XDP programs are adjusted. This
      flow didn't increment refcount by the number of active XSK RQs, and this
      commit fixes it.

      sparc64: Fix opcode filtering in handling of no fault loads · e5e8b80d
      Rob Gardner authored
      is_no_fault_exception() has two bugs which were discovered via random
      opcode testing with stress-ng. Both are caused by improper filtering
      of opcodes.
      
      The first bug can be triggered by a floating point store with a no-fault
      ASI, for instance "sta %f0, [%g0] #ASI_PNF", opcode C1A01040.
      
      The code first tests op3[5] (0x1000000), which denotes a floating
      point instruction, and then tests op3[2] (0x200000), which denotes a
      store instruction. But these bits are not mutually exclusive, and the
      above mentioned opcode has both bits set. The intent is to filter out
      stores, so the test for stores must be done first in order to have
      any effect.
      
      The second bug can be triggered by a floating point load with one of
      the invalid ASI values 0x8e or 0x8f, which pass this check in
      is_no_fault_exception():
           if ((asi & 0xf2) == ASI_PNF)
      
      An example instruction is "ldqa [%l7 + %o7] #ASI 0x8f, %f38",
      opcode CF95D1EF. Asi values greater than 0x8b (ASI_SNFL) are fatal
      in handle_ldf_stq(), and is_no_fault_exception() must not allow these
      invalid asi values to make it that far.
      
      In both of these cases, handle_ldf_stq() reacts by calling
      sun4v_data_access_exception() or spitfire_data_access_exception(),
      which call is_no_fault_exception() and results in an infinite
      recursion.

      s390/qeth: fix notification for pending buffers during teardown · 7eefda7f
      Julian Wiedmann authored
      The cited commit reworked the state machine for pending TX buffers.
      In qeth_iqd_tx_complete() it turned PENDING into a transient state, and
      uses NEED_QAOB for buffers that get parked while waiting for their QAOB
      completion.
      
      But it missed to adjust the check in qeth_tx_complete_buf(). So if
      qeth_tx_complete_pending_bufs() is called during teardown to drain
      the parked TX buffers, we no longer raise a notification for af_iucv.
      
      Instead of updating the checked state, just move this code into
      qeth_tx_complete_pending_bufs() itself. This also gets rid of the
      special-case in the common TX completion path.

      s390/qeth: schedule TX NAPI on QAOB completion · 3e83d467
      Julian Wiedmann authored
      When a QAOB notifies us that a pending TX buffer has been delivered, the
      actual TX completion processing by qeth_tx_complete_pending_bufs()
      is done within the context of a TX NAPI instance. We shouldn't rely on
      this instance being scheduled by some other TX event, but just do it
      ourselves.
      
      qeth_qdio_handle_aob() is called from qeth_poll(), ie. our main NAPI
      instance. To avoid touching the TX queue's NAPI instance
      before/after it is (un-)registered, reorder the code in qeth_open()
      and qeth_stop() accordingly.

      s390/qeth: improve completion of pending TX buffers · c20383ad
      Julian Wiedmann authored
      The current design attaches a pending TX buffer to a custom
      single-linked list, which is anchored at the buffer's slot on the
      TX ring. The buffer is then checked for final completion whenever
      this slot is processed during a subsequent TX NAPI poll cycle.
      
      But if there's insufficient traffic on the ring, we might never make
      enough progress to get back to this ring slot and discover the pending
      buffer's final TX completion. In particular if this missing TX
      completion blocks the application from sending further traffic.
      
      So convert the custom single-linked list code to a per-queue list_head,
      and scan this list on every TX NAPI cycle.

        - Remove unused *eth.

      net: check if protocol extracted by virtio_net_hdr_set_proto is correct · 924a9bc3
      Balazs Nemeth authored
      For gso packets, virtio_net_hdr_set_proto sets the protocol (if it isn't
      set) based on the type in the virtio net hdr, but the skb could contain
      anything since it could come from packet_snd through a raw socket. If
      there is a mismatch between what virtio_net_hdr_set_proto sets and
      the actual protocol, then the skb could be handled incorrectly later
      on.
      
      An example where this poses an issue is with the subsequent call to
      skb_flow_dissect_flow_keys_basic which relies on skb->protocol being set
      correctly. A specially crafted packet could fool
      skb_flow_dissect_flow_keys_basic preventing EINVAL to be returned.
      
      Avoid blindly trusting the information provided by the virtio net header
      by checking that the protocol in the packet actually matches the
      protocol set by virtio_net_hdr_set_proto. Note that since the protocol
      is only checked if skb->dev implements header_ops->parse_protocol,
      packets from devices without the implementation are not checked at this
      stage.

      net: dsa: xrs700x: check if partner is same as port in hsr join · 286a8624
      George McCollister authored
      Don't assign dp to partner if it's the same port that xrs700x_hsr_join
      was called with. The partner port is supposed to be the other port in
      the HSR/PRP redundant pair not the same port. This fixes an issue
      observed in testing where forwarding between redundant HSR ports on this
      switch didn't work depending on the order the ports were added to the
      hsr device.

      Pull gpio fixes from Bartosz Golaszewski:
       "A bunch of fixes for the GPIO subsystem. We have two regressions in
        the core code spotted right after the merge window, a series of fixes
        for ACPI GPIO and a subsequent fix for a related regression in
        gpio-pca953x + a minor tweak in .gitignore and a rework of handling of
        the gpio-line-names to remedy a regression in stm32mp151.
      
        Summary:
      
         - fix two regressions in core GPIO subsystem code: one NULL-pointer
           dereference and one list corruption
      
         - read GPIO line names from fwnode instead of using the generic
           device properties to fix a regression on stm32mp151
      
         - fixes to ACPI GPIO and gpio-pca953x to handle a regression in IRQ
           handling on Intel Galileo
      
         - update .gitignore in GPIO selftests"

      net: lapbether: Remove netif_start_queue / netif_stop_queue · f7d9d485
      Xie He authored
      For the devices in this driver, the default qdisc is "noqueue",
      because their "tx_queue_len" is 0.
      
      In function "__dev_queue_xmit" in "net/core/dev.c", devices with the
      "noqueue" qdisc are specially handled. Packets are transmitted without
      being queued after a "dev->flags & IFF_UP" check. However, it's possible
      that even if this check succeeds, "ops->ndo_stop" may still have already
      been called. This is because in "__dev_close_many", "ops->ndo_stop" is
      called before clearing the "IFF_UP" flag.
      
      If we call "netif_stop_queue" in "ops->ndo_stop", then it's possible in
      "__dev_queue_xmit", it sees the "IFF_UP" flag is present, and then it
      checks "netif_xmit_stopped" and finds that the queue is already stopped.
      In this case, it will complain that:
      "Virtual device ... asks to queue packet!"
      
      To prevent "__dev_queue_xmit" from generating this complaint, we should
      not call "netif_stop_queue" in "ops->ndo_stop".
      
      We also don't need to call "netif_start_queue" in "ops->ndo_open",
      because after a netdev is allocated and registered, the
      "__QUEUE_STATE_DRV_XOFF" flag is initially not set, so there is no need
      to call "netif_start_queue" to clear it.

      MIPS: kernel: Reserve exception base early to prevent corruption · bd67b711
      Thomas Bogendoerfer authored
      BMIPS is one of the few platforms that do change the exception base.
      After commit 2dcb3964 ("memblock: do not start bottom-up allocations
      with kernel_end") we started seeing BMIPS boards fail to boot with the
      built-in FDT being corrupted.
      
      Before the cited commit, early allocations would be in the [kernel_end,
      RAM_END] range, but after commit they would be within [RAM_START +
      PAGE_SIZE, RAM_END].
      
      The custom exception base handler that is installed by
      bmips_ebase_setup() done for BMIPS5000 CPUs ends-up trampling on the
      memory region allocated by unflatten_and_copy_device_tree() thus
      corrupting the FDT used by the kernel.
      
      To fix this, we need to perform an early reservation of the custom
      exception space. Additional we reserve the first 4k (1k for R3k) for
      either normal exception vector space (legacy CPUs) or special vectors
      like cache exceptions.
      
      Huge thanks to Serge for analysing and proposing a solution to this
      issue.
