      gianfar: Add FCS to rx buffer size (fix) · f5b720b8
      Claudiu Manoil authored
      For each Rx frame the eTSEC writes its FCS (Frame Check Sequence)
      to the Rx buffer.
      
      The eTSEC h/w manual states in the "Receive Buffer Descriptor Field
      Descriptions" table:
      "Data length is the number of octets written by the eTSEC into this BD's
      data buffer if L is cleared (the value is equal to MRBLR), or, if L is
      set, the length of the frame including *CRC*, FCB (if RCTRL[PRSDEP > 00),
      preamble (if MACCFG2[PreAmRxEn]=1), time stamp (if RCTRL[TS] = 1) and
      any padding (RCTRL[PAL])."
      
      Though the FCS bytes are removed by the driver before passing the skb
      to the net stack, the Rx buffer size computation does not currently
      take into account the FCS bytes (4 bytes).
      Because the Rx buffer size is multiple of 512 bytes, leaving out the
      FCS is not a problem for the default MTU of 1500, as the Rx buffer size
      is 1536 in this case.  However, for custom MTUs, where the difference
      between the MTU size and the Rx buffer size is less, this can be a
      problem as the computed Rx buffer size won't be enough to accomodate
      the FCS for a received frame that is big enough (close to MTU size).
      In such case the received frame is considered to be incomplete (L flag
      not set in the RxBD status) and silently dropped.
      
      Note that the driver does not currently support S/G on Rx, so it has to
      compute its Rx buffer size based on the MTU of the device.

      virtio_net: fix use after free · 4b7fd2e6
      Michael S. Tsirkin authored
      commit 0b725a2c
          net: Remove ndo_xmit_flush netdev operation, use signalling instead.
      
      added code that looks at skb->xmit_more after the skb has
      been put in TX VQ. Since some paths process the ring and free the skb
      immediately, this can cause use after free.
      
      Fix by storing xmit_more in a local variable.

      net: fec: ptp: fix convergence issue to support LinuxPTP stack · 28b5f058
      Nimrod Andy authored
      iMX6SX IEEE 1588 module has one hw issue in capturing the ATVR register.
      The current SW flow is:
      		ENET0->ATCR |= ENET_ATCR_CAPTURE_MASK;
      		ts_counter_ns = ENET0->ATVR;
      The ATVR value is not expected value that cause LinuxPTP stack cannot be convergent.
      
      ENET Block Guide/ Chapter for the iMX6SX (PELE) address the issue:
      After set ENET_ATCR[Capture], there need some time cycles before the counter
      value is capture in the register clock domain. The wait-time-cycles is at least
      6 clock cycles of the slower clock between the register clock and the 1588 clock.
      So need something like:
      		ENET0->ATCR |= ENET_ATCR_CAPTURE_MASK;
      		wait();
      		ts_counter_ns = ENET0->ATVR;
      
      For iMX6SX, the 1588 ts_clk is fixed to 25Mhz, register clock is 66Mhz, so the
      wait-time-cycles must be greater than 240ns (40ns * 6). The patch add 1us delay
      before cpu read ATVR register.
      
      Changes V2:
      Modify the commit/comments log to describe the issue clearly.

      cxgb4i : Fix -Wmaybe-uninitialized warning. · 001586a7
      Anish Bhatt authored
      Identified by kbuild test robot. csk family is always set to be AF_INET or
      AF_INET6, so skb will always be initialized to some value but there is no harm
      in silencing the warning anyways.

      net: Add ndo_gso_check · 04ffcb25
      Tom Herbert authored
      Add ndo_gso_check which a device can define to indicate whether is
      is capable of doing GSO on a packet. This funciton would be called from
      the stack to determine whether software GSO is needed to be done. A
      driver should populate this function if it advertises GSO types for
      which there are combinations that it wouldn't be able to handle. For
      instance a device that performs UDP tunneling might only implement
      support for transparent Ethernet bridging type of inner packets
      or might have limitations on lengths of inner headers.
