      net: phy: mscc: avoid skcipher API for single block AES encryption · 5a3235e5
      Ard Biesheuvel authored 
      The skcipher API dynamically instantiates the transformation object
on request that implements the requested algorithm optimally on the
given platform. This notion of optimality only matters for cases like
bulk network or disk encryption, where performance can be a bottleneck,
or in cases where the algorithm itself is not known at compile time.

In the mscc case, we are dealing with AES encryption of a single
block, and so neither concern applies, and we are better off using
the AES library interface, which is lightweight and safe for this
kind of use.

Note that the scatterlist API does not permit references to buffers
that are located on the stack, so the existing code is incorrect in
any case, but avoiding the skcipher and scatterlist APIs entirely is
the most straight-forward approach to fixing this.

====================
net: bcmgenet: use hardware padding of runt frames

Now that scatter-gather and tx-checksumming are enabled by default
it revealed a packet corruption issue that can occur for very short
fragmented packets.

When padding these frames to the minimum length it is possible for
the non-linear (fragment) data to be added to the end of the linear
header in an SKB. Since the number of fragments is read before the
padding and used afterward without reloading, the fragment that
should have been consumed can be tacked on in place of part of the
padding.

The third commit in this set corrects this by removing the software
padding and allowing the hardware to add the pad bytes if necessary.

The first two commits resolve warnings observed by the kbuild test
robot and are included here for simplicity of application.

      net: bcmgenet: use hardware padding of runt frames · 20d1f2d1
      Doug Berger authored 
      When commit 474ea9ca ("net: bcmgenet: correctly pad short
packets") added the call to skb_padto() it should have been
located before the nr_frags parameter was read since that value
could be changed when padding packets with lengths between 55
and 59 bytes (inclusive).

The use of a stale nr_frags value can cause corruption of the
pad data when tx-scatter-gather is enabled. This corruption of
the pad can cause invalid checksum computation when hardware
offload of tx-checksum is also enabled.

Since the original reason for the padding was corrected by
commit 7dd39913 ("net: bcmgenet: fix skb_len in
bcmgenet_xmit_single()") we can remove the software padding all
together and make use of hardware padding of short frames as
long as the hardware also always appends the FCS value to the
frame.

be declared as a restricted big endian type to allow type checks

      net: bcmgenet: re-remove bcmgenet_hfb_add_filter · 673bafd5
      Doug Berger authored 
      This function was originally removed by Baoyou Xie in
commit e2072600 ("net: bcmgenet: remove unused function in
bcmgenet.c") to prevent a build warning.

Some of the functions removed by Baoyou Xie are now used for
WAKE_FILTER support so his commit was reverted, but this function
is still unused and the kbuild test robot dutifully reported the
warning.

This commit once again removes the remaining unused hfb functions.
