Pull networking fixes from David Miller: 1) When dcbnl_cee_fill() fails to be able to push a new netlink attribute, it return 0 instead of an error code. From Pan Bian. 2) Two suffix handling fixes to FIB trie code, from Alexander Duyck. 3) bnxt_hwrm_stat_ctx_alloc() goes through all the trouble of setting and maintaining a return code 'rc' but fails to actually return it. Also from Pan Bian. 4) ping socket ICMP handler needs to validate ICMP header length, from Kees Cook. 5) caif_sktinit_module() has this interesting logic: int err = sock_register(...); if (!err) return err; return 0; Just return sock_register()'s return value directly which is the only possible correct thing to do. 6) Two bnx2x driver fixes from Yuval Mintz, return a reasonable estimate from get_ringparam() ethtool op when interface is down and avoid trying to use UDP port based tunneling on 577xx chips. 7) Fix ep93xx_eth crash on module unload from Florian Fainelli. 8) Missing uapi exports, from Stephen Hemminger. 9) Don't schedule work from sk_destruct(), because the socket will be freed upon return from that function. From Herbert Xu. 10) Buggy drivers, of which we know there is at least one, can send a huge packet into the TCP stack but forget to set the gso_size in the SKB, which causes all kinds of problems. Correct this when it happens, and emit a one-time warning with the device name included so that it can be diagnosed more easily. From Marcelo Ricardo Leitner. 11) virtio-net does DMA off the stack causes hiccups with VMAP_STACK, fix from Andy Lutomirski. 12) Fix fec driver compilation with CONFIG_M5272, from Nikita Yushchenko. 13) mlx5 fixes from Kamal Heib, Saeed Mahameed, and Mohamad Haj Yahia.

The shmem hole punching with fallocate(FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE) does not want to race with generating new pages by faulting them in. However, the wait-queue used to delay the page faulting has a serious problem: the wait queue head (in shmem_fallocate()) is allocated on the stack, and the code expects that "wake_up_all()" will make sure that all the queue entries are gone before the stack frame is de-allocated. And that is not at all necessarily the case. Yes, a normal wake-up sequence will remove the wait-queue entry that caused the wakeup (see "autoremove_wake_function()"), but the key wording there is "that caused the wakeup". When there are multiple possible wakeup sources, the wait queue entry may well stay around. And _particularly_ in a page fault path, we may be faulting in new pages from user space while we also have other things going on, and there may well be other pending wakeups. So despite the "wake_up_all()", it's not at all guaranteed that all list entries are removed from the wait queue head on the stack. Fix this by introducing a new wakeup function that removes the list entry unconditionally, even if the target process had already woken up for other reasons. Use that "synchronous" function to set up the waiters in shmem_fault(). This problem has never been seen in the wild afaik, but Dave Jones has reported it on and off while running trinity. We thought we fixed the stack corruption with the blk-mq rq_list locking fix (commit 7fe31130: "blk-mq: update hardware and software queues for sleeping alloc"), but it turns out there was _another_ stack corruptor hiding in the trinity runs. Vegard Nossum (also running trinity) was able to trigger this one fairly consistently, and made us look once again at the shmem code due to the faults often being in that area.

When using the negative logic (i.e. FLUSH state), after the RQ/SQ reopen we will have a time interval that the RQ/SQ is not really ready and the state indicates that its not in FLUSH state because the initial SQ/RQ struct memory starts as zeros. Now we changed the state to indicate if the SQ/RQ is opened and we will set the READY state after finishing preparing all the SQ/RQ resources.

In old FWs query ISSI command is not supported and for some of those FWs it might fail with status other than "MLX5_CMD_STAT_BAD_OP_ERR". In such case instead of failing the driver load, we will treat any FW status other than 0 for Query ISSI FW command as ISSI not supported and assume ISSI=0 (most basic driver/FW interface). In case of driver syndrom (query ISSI failure by driver) we will fail driver load.

This patch introduces the RX checksum function to check the status of the hardware calculated checksum and its error and appropriately convey status to the upper stack in skb->ip_summed field. In hardware, we only support checksum for the following protocols: 1) IPv4, 2) TCP(over IPv4 or IPv6), 3) UDP(over IPv4 or IPv6), 4) SCTP(over IPv4 or IPv6) but we support many L3(IPv4, IPv6, MPLS, PPPoE etc) and L4(TCP, UDP, GRE, SCTP, IGMP, ICMP etc.) protocols. Hardware limitation: Our present hardware RX Descriptor lacks L3/L4 checksum "Status & Error" bit (which usually can be used to indicate whether checksum was calculated by the hardware and if there was any error encountered during checksum calculation). Software workaround: We do get info within the RX descriptor about the kind of L3/L4 protocol coming in the packet and the error status. These errors might not just be checksum errors but could be related to version, length of IPv4, UDP, TCP etc. Because there is no-way of knowing if it is a L3/L4 error due to bad checksum or any other L3/L4 error, we will not (cannot) convey hardware checksum status(CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY) for such cases to upper stack and will not maintain the RX L3/L4 checksum counters as well.

Neal Cardwell says: If I am reading the code correctly, then I would have two concerns: 1) Has that been tested? That seems like an extremely dramatic decrease in cwnd. For example, if the cwnd is 80, and there are 40 ACKs, and half the ACKs are ECE marked, then my back-of-the-envelope calculations seem to suggest that after just 11 ACKs the cwnd would be down to a minimal value of 2 [..] 2) That seems to contradict another passage in the draft [..] where it sazs: Just as specified in [RFC3168], DCTCP does not react to congestion indications more than once for every window of data. Neal is right. Fortunately we don't have to complicate this by testing vs. current rtt estimate, we can just revert the patch. Normal stack already handles this for us: receiving ACKs with ECE set causes a call to tcp_enter_cwr(), from there on the ssthresh gets adjusted and prr will take care of cwnd adjustment.

Vivien Didelot says: ==================== net: dsa: mv88e6xxx: rework reset and PPU code Old Marvell chips (like 88E6060) don't have a PHY Polling Unit (PPU). Next chips (like 88E6185) have a PPU, which has exclusive access to the PHY registers, thus must be disabled before access. Newer chips (like 88E6352) have an indirect mechanism to access the PHY registers whenever, thus loose control over the PPU (always enabled). Here's a summary: Model | PPU? | Has PPU ctrl? | PPU state readable? | PHY access ----- | ---- | -------------- | ------------------- | ---------- 6060 | no | no | no | direct 6185 | yes | yes, PPUEn bit | yes, PPUState 2-bit | direct w/ PPU dis. 6352 | yes | no | yes, PPUState 1-bit | indirect 6390 | yes | no | yes, InitState bit | indirect Depending on the PPU control, a switch may have to restart the PPU when resetting the switch. Once the switch is reset, we must wait for the PPU state to be active polling again before accessing the registers. For that purpose, add new operations to the chips to enable/disable the PPU, and execute software reset. With these new ops in place, rework the switch reset code and finally get rid of the MV88E6XXX_FLAG_PPU* flags. Changes in v3: - consider 6097 as 6352 (no PPU ops and use mv88e6352_g1_reset). Changes in v2: - wait in ppu/reset ops so that ppu_polling is not needed anymore. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Marvell chips have different way to issue a software reset. Old chips (such as 88E6060) have a reset bit in an ATU control register. Newer chips moved this bit in a Global control register. Chips with controllable PPU should reset the PPU when resetting the switch. Add a new reset operation to implement these differences and introduce a mv88e6xxx_software_reset() helper to wrap it conveniently.

Lino Sanfilippo says: ==================== Gigabit ethernet driver for Alacritechs SLIC devices (v4) this is the forth version of the slicoss gigabit ethernet driver (which is a rework of the driver from Alacritech which can currently be found under drivers/staging/slicoss).

There have been some reports lately about TCP connection stalls caused by NIC drivers that aren't setting gso_size on aggregated packets on rx path. This causes TCP to assume that the MSS is actually the size of the aggregated packet, which is invalid. Although the proper fix is to be done at each driver, it's often hard and cumbersome for one to debug, come to such root cause and report/fix it. This patch amends this situation in two ways. First, it adds a warning on when this situation occurs, so it gives a hint to those trying to debug this. It also limit the maximum probed MSS to the adverised MSS, as it should never be any higher than that. The result is that the connection may not have the best performance ever but it shouldn't stall, and the admin will have a hint on what to look for. Tested with virtio by forcing gso_size to 0. v2: updated msg per David's suggestion v3: use skb_iif to find the interface and also log its name, per Eric Dumazet's suggestion. As the skb may be backlogged and the interface gone by then, we need to check if the number still has a meaning. v4: use helper tcp_gro_dev_warn() and avoid pr_warn_once inside __once, per David's suggestion Cc: Jonathan Maxwell <jmaxwell37@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Marcelo Ricardo Leitner <marcelo.leitner@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

In UDP recvmsg() path we currently access 3 cache lines from an skb while holding receive queue lock, plus another one if packet is dequeued, since we need to change skb->next->prev 1st cache line (contains ->next/prev pointers, offsets 0x00 and 0x08) 2nd cache line (skb->len & skb->peeked, offsets 0x80 and 0x8e) 3rd cache line (skb->truesize/users, offsets 0xe0 and 0xe4) skb->peeked is only needed to make sure 0-length packets are properly handled while MSG_PEEK is operated. I had first the intent to remove skb->peeked but the "MSG_PEEK at non-zero offset" support added by Sam Kumar makes this not possible. This patch avoids one cache line miss during the locked section, when skb->len and skb->peeked do not have to be read. It also avoids the skb_set_peeked() cost for non empty UDP datagrams.

WR_OSR_LMT and RD_OSR_LMT have a reset value of 1. Since the reset value wasn't cleared before writing, the value in the register would be incorrect if specifying an uneven value for snps,wr_osr_lmt/snps,rd_osr_lmt. Zero is a valid value for the properties, since the databook specifies: maximum outstanding requests = WR_OSR_LMT + 1. We do not want to change the behavior for existing users when the property is missing. Therefore, default to 1 if the property is missing, since that is the same as the reset value.

The "mac_core_rst" and "mac_ifc_rst" are both optional to be backward compatible with the hix5hd2 SoC. The "phy_rst" represents "phy reset signal", it does a hardware reset on the PHY chip. This reset signal is optional if the PHY can work well without the hardware reset. Add one more clock signal, the existing is MAC core clock, and the new one is MAC interface clock.
