      net: dsa: microchip: ksz8863: be compatible with masters which unregister on shutdown · fe405307
      Vladimir Oltean authored
      Since commit 2f1e8ea7 ("net: dsa: link interfaces with the DSA
      master to get rid of lockdep warnings"), DSA gained a requirement which
      it did not fulfill, which is to unlink itself from the DSA master at
      shutdown time.
      
      Since the Microchip sub-driver for KSZ8863 was introduced after the bad
      commit, it has never worked with DSA masters which decide to unregister
      their net_device on shutdown, effectively hanging the reboot process.
      To fix that, we need to call dsa_switch_shutdown.
      
      Since this driver expects the MDIO bus to be backed by mdio_bitbang, I
      don't think there is currently any MDIO bus driver which implements its
      ->shutdown by redirecting it to ->remove, but in any case, to be
      compatible with that pattern, it is necessary to implement an "if this
      then not that" scheme, to avoid ->remove and ->shutdown from being
      called both for the same struct device.

      never worked with DSA masters which decide to unregister their
      net_device on shutdown, effectively hanging the reboot process.
      
      Hellcreek is a platform device driver, so we probably cannot have the
      oddities of ->shutdown and ->remove getting both called for the exact
      same struct device. But to be in line with the pattern from the other
      device drivers which are on slow buses, implement the same "if this then
      not that" pattern of either running the ->shutdown or the ->remove hook.
      The driver's current ->remove implementation makes that very easy
      because it already zeroes out its device_drvdata on ->remove.

      net: dsa: be compatible with masters which unregister on shutdown · 0650bf52
      Vladimir Oltean authored
      Lino reports that on his system with bcmgenet as DSA master and KSZ9897
      as a switch, rebooting or shutting down never works properly.
      
      What does the bcmgenet driver have special to trigger this, that other
      DSA masters do not? It has an implementation of ->shutdown which simply
      calls its ->remove implementation. Otherwise said, it unregisters its
      network interface on shutdown.
      
      This message can be seen in a loop, and it hangs the reboot process there:
      
      unregister_netdevice: waiting for eth0 to become free. Usage count = 3
      
      So why 3?
      
      A usage count of 1 is normal for a registered network interface, and any
      virtual interface which links itself as an upper of that will increment
      it via dev_hold. In the case of DSA, this is the call path:
      
      dsa_slave_create
      -> netdev_upper_dev_link
         -> __netdev_upper_dev_link
            -> __netdev_adjacent_dev_insert
               -> dev_hold
      
      So a DSA switch with 3 interfaces will result in a usage count elevated
      by two, and netdev_wait_allrefs will wait until they have gone away.
      
      Other stacked interfaces, like VLAN, watch NETDEV_UNREGISTER events and
      delete themselves, but DSA cannot just vanish and go poof, at most it
      can unbind itself from the switch devices, but that must happen strictly
      earlier compared to when the DSA master unregisters its net_device, so
      reacting on the NETDEV_UNREGISTER event is way too late.
      
      It seems that it is a pretty established pattern to have a driver's
      ->shutdown hook redirect to its ->remove hook, so the same code is
      executed regardless of whether the driver is unbound from the device, or
      the system is just shutting down. As Florian puts it, it is quite a big
      hammer for bcmgenet to unregister its net_device during shutdown, but
      having a common code path with the driver unbind helps ensure it is well
      tested.
      
      So DSA, for better or for worse, has to live with that and engage in an
      arms race of implementing the ->shutdown hook too, from all individual
      drivers, and do something sane when paired with masters that unregister
      their net_device there. The only sane thing to do, of course, is to
      unlink from the master.
      
      However, complications arise really quickly.
      
      The pattern of redirecting ->shutdown to ->remove is not unique to
      bcmgenet or even to net_device drivers. In fact, SPI controllers do it
      too (see dspi_shutdown -> dspi_remove), and presumably, I2C controllers
      and MDIO controllers do it too (this is something I have not researched
      too deeply, but even if this is not the case today, it is certainly
      plausible to happen in the future, and must be taken into consideration).
      
      Since DSA switches might be SPI devices, I2C devices, MDIO devices, the
      insane implication is that for the exact same DSA switch device, we
      might have both ->shutdown and ->remove getting called.
      
      So we need to do something with that insane environment. The pattern
      I've come up with is "if this, then not that", so if either ->shutdown
      or ->remove gets called, we set the device's drvdata to NULL, and in the
      other hook, we check whether the drvdata is NULL and just do nothing.
      This is probably not necessary for platform devices, just for devices on
      buses, but I would really insist for consistency among drivers, because
      when code is copy-pasted, it is not always copy-pasted from the best
      sources.
      
      So depending on whether the DSA switch's ->remove or ->shutdown will get
      called first, we cannot really guarantee even for the same driver if
      rebooting will result in the same code path on all platforms. But
      nonetheless, we need to do something minimally reasonable on ->shutdown
      too to fix the bug. Of course, the ->remove will do more (a full
      teardown of the tree, with all data structures freed, and this is why
      the bug was not caught for so long). The new ->shutdown method is kept
      separate from dsa_unregister_switch not because we couldn't have
      unregistered the switch, but simply in the interest of doing something
      quick and to the point.
      
      The big question is: does the DSA switch's ->shutdown get called earlier
      than the DSA master's ->shutdown? If not, there is still a risk that we
      might still trigger the WARN_ON in unregister_netdevice that says we are
      attempting to unregister a net_device which has uppers. That's no good.
      Although the reference to the master net_device won't physically go away
      even if DSA's ->shutdown comes afterwards, remember we have a dev_hold
      on it.
      
      The answer to that question lies in this comment above device_link_add:
      
       * A side effect of the link creation is re-ordering of dpm_list and the
       * devices_kset list by moving the consumer device and all devices depending
       * on it to the ends of these lists (that does not happen to devices that have
       * not been registered when this function is called).
      
      so the fact that DSA uses device_link_add towards its master is not
      exactly for nothing. device_shutdown() walks devices_kset from the back,
      so this is our guarantee that DSA's shutdown happens before the master's
      shutdown.

      net: mdio: introduce a shutdown method to mdio device drivers · cf957997
      Vladimir Oltean authored
      MDIO-attached devices might have interrupts and other things that might
      need quiesced when we kexec into a new kernel. Things are even more
      creepy when those interrupt lines are shared, and in that case it is
      absolutely mandatory to disable all interrupt sources.
      
      Moreover, MDIO devices might be DSA switches, and DSA needs its own
      shutdown method to unlink from the DSA master, which is a new
      requirement that appeared after commit 2f1e8ea7 ("net: dsa: link
      interfaces with the DSA master to get rid of lockdep warnings").
      
      So introduce a ->shutdown method in the MDIO device driver structure.

      net: 6pack: Fix tx timeout and slot time · 3c0d2a46
      Guenter Roeck authored
      tx timeout and slot time are currently specified in units of HZ.  On
      Alpha, HZ is defined as 1024.  When building alpha:allmodconfig, this
      results in the following error message.
      
        drivers/net/hamradio/6pack.c: In function 'sixpack_open':
        drivers/net/hamradio/6pack.c:71:41: error:
        	unsigned conversion from 'int' to 'unsigned char'
        	changes value from '256' to '0'
      
      In the 6PACK protocol, tx timeout is specified in units of 10 ms and
      transmitted over the wire:
      
          https://www.linux-ax25.org/wiki/6PACK
      
      Defining a value dependent on HZ doesn't really make sense, and
      presumably comes from the (very historical) situation where HZ was
      originally 100.
      
      Note that the SIXP_SLOTTIME use explicitly is about 10ms granularity:
      
              mod_timer(&sp->tx_t, jiffies + ((when + 1) * HZ) / 100);
      
      and the SIXP_TXDELAY walue is sent as a byte over the wire.

      3com 3c515: make it compile on 64-bit architectures · db71f8fb
      Linus Torvalds authored
      This driver isn't enabled most places because of the ISA config
      dependency, but alpha still has it.  And I think the 'Jensen' actually
      did have an ISA slot.
      
      However, it doesn't build cleanly, because the "Vortex bus master" code
      just casts the skb->data pointer to 'int':
      
              outl((int) (skb->data), ioaddr + Wn7_MasterAddr);
      
      which is all kinds of broken.  Even on a good old traditional PC/AT it
      would be broken because the high bits will be random kernel address
      bits, but presumably the hardware ignores those bits.  I mean, it's ISA.
      We're talking 16MB dma limits. The "good old days".
      
      Make the build happy with this kind of craziness by using the proper
      isa_virt_to_bus() handling that the full bus master code uses anyway
      (the Vortex bus mastering is a limited special case).
      
      Who knows, this might even work.

      In this state, the interface will be up and enabled, but

      This patch ensures that the driver's "valid_polarity" field is
      cleared during the open() method so that it always matches the
      receive polarity used by hardware.  Without this fix, the driver
      needs to be unloaded and reloaded to correct this problem state.

      igc: fix tunnel offloading · 40ee363c
      Paolo Abeni authored
      Checking tunnel offloading, it turns out that offloading doesn't work
      as expected.  The following script allows to reproduce the issue.
      Call it as `testscript DEVICE LOCALIP REMOTEIP NETMASK'
      
      === SNIP ===
      if [ $# -ne 4 ]
      then
        echo "Usage $0 DEVICE LOCALIP REMOTEIP NETMASK"
        exit 1
      fi
      DEVICE="$1"
      LOCAL_ADDRESS="$2"
      REMOTE_ADDRESS="$3"
      NWMASK="$4"
      echo "Driver: $(ethtool -i ${DEVICE} | awk '/^driver:/{print $2}') "
      ethtool -k "${DEVICE}" | grep tx-udp
      echo
      echo "Set up NIC and tunnel..."
      ip addr add "${LOCAL_ADDRESS}/${NWMASK}" dev "${DEVICE}"
      ip link set "${DEVICE}" up
      sleep 2
      ip link add vxlan1 type vxlan id 42 \
      		   remote "${REMOTE_ADDRESS}" \
      		   local "${LOCAL_ADDRESS}" \
      		   dstport 0 \
      		   dev "${DEVICE}"
      ip addr add fc00::1/64 dev vxlan1
      ip link set vxlan1 up
      sleep 2
      rm -f vxlan.pcap
      echo "Running tcpdump and iperf3..."
      ( nohup tcpdump -i any -w vxlan.pcap >/dev/null 2>&1 ) &
      sleep 2
      iperf3 -c fc00::2 >/dev/null
      pkill tcpdump
      echo
      echo -n "Max. Paket Size: "
      tcpdump -r vxlan.pcap -nnle 2>/dev/null \
      | grep "${LOCAL_ADDRESS}.*> ${REMOTE_ADDRESS}.*OTV" \
      | awk '{print $8}' | awk -F ':' '{print $1}' \
      | sort -n | tail -1
      echo
      ip link del vxlan1
      ip addr del ${LOCAL_ADDRESS}/${NWMASK} dev "${DEVICE}"
      === SNAP ===
      
      The expected outcome is
      
        Max. Paket Size: 64904
      
      This is what you see on igb, the code igc has been taken from.
      However, on igc the output is
      
        Max. Paket Size: 1516
      
      so the GSO aggregate packets are segmented by the kernel before calling
      igc_xmit_frame.  Inside the subsequent call to igc_tso, the check for
      skb_is_gso(skb) fails and the function returns prematurely.
      
      It turns out that this occurs because the feature flags aren't set
      entirely correctly in igc_probe.  In contrast to the original code
      from igb_probe, igc_probe neglects to set the flags required to allow
      tunnel offloading.
      
      Setting the same flags as igb fixes the issue on igc.

      net: dsa: flush switchdev workqueue before tearing down CPU/DSA ports · a57d8c21
      Vladimir Oltean authored
      Sometimes when unbinding the mv88e6xxx driver on Turris MOX, these error
      messages appear:
      
      mv88e6085 d0032004.mdio-mii:12: port 1 failed to delete be:79:b4:9e:9e:96 vid 1 from fdb: -2
      mv88e6085 d0032004.mdio-mii:12: port 1 failed to delete be:79:b4:9e:9e:96 vid 0 from fdb: -2

      mv88e6085 d0032004.mdio-mii:12: port 1 failed to delete d8:58:d7:00:ca:6d vid 0 from fdb: -2
      
      (and similarly for other ports)
      
      What happens is that DSA has a policy "even if there are bugs, let's at
      least not leak memory" and dsa_port_teardown() clears the dp->fdbs and
      dp->mdbs lists, which are supposed to be empty.
      
      But deleting that cleanup code, the warnings go away.
      
      => the FDB and MDB lists (used for refcounting on shared ports, aka CPU
      and DSA ports) will eventually be empty, but are not empty by the time
      we tear down those ports. Aka we are deleting them too soon.
      
      The addresses that DSA complains about are host-trapped addresses: the
      local addresses of the ports, and the MAC address of the bridge device.
      
      The problem is that offloading those entries happens from a deferred
      work item scheduled by the SWITCHDEV_FDB_DEL_TO_DEVICE handler, and this
      races with the teardown of the CPU and DSA ports where the refcounting
      is kept.
      
      In fact, not only it races, but fundamentally speaking, if we iterate
      through the port list linearly, we might end up tearing down the shared
      ports even before we delete a DSA user port which has a bridge upper.
      
      So as it turns out, we need to first tear down the user ports (and the
      unused ones, for no better place of doing that), then the shared ports
      (the CPU and DSA ports). In between, we need to ensure that all work
      items scheduled by our switchdev handlers (which only run for user
      ports, hence the reason why we tear them down first) have finished.

      Revert "net: phy: Uniform PHY driver access" · 301de697
      Vladimir Oltean authored
      This reverts commit 3ac8eed6, which did
      more than it said on the box, and not only it replaced to_phy_driver
      with phydev->drv, but it also removed the "!drv" check, without actually
      explaining why that is fine.
      
      That patch in fact breaks suspend/resume on any system which has PHY
      devices with no drivers bound.
      
      The stack trace is:
      
      Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000000000000e8
      pc : mdio_bus_phy_suspend+0xd8/0xec

       suspend_devices_and_enter+0x13c/0x540
       pm_suspend+0x2a4/0x330
      
      Examples why that assumption is not fine:
      
      - There is an MDIO bus with a PHY device that doesn't have a specific
        PHY driver loaded, because mdiobus_register() automatically creates a
        PHY device for it but there is no specific PHY driver in the system.
        Normally under those circumstances, the generic PHY driver will be
        bound lazily to it (at phy_attach_direct time). But some Ethernet
        drivers attach to their PHY at .ndo_open time. Until then it, the
        to-be-driven-by-genphy PHY device will not have a driver. The blamed
        patch amounts to saying "you need to open all net devices before the
        system can suspend, to avoid the NULL pointer dereference".
      
      - There is any raw MDIO device which has 'plausible' values in the PHY
        ID registers 2 and 3, which is located on an MDIO bus whose driver
        does not set bus->phy_mask = ~0 (which prevents auto-scanning of PHY
        devices). An example could be a MAC's internal MDIO bus with PCS
        devices on it, for serial links such as SGMII. PHY devices will get
        created for those PCSes too, due to that MDIO bus auto-scanning, and
        although those PHY devices are not used, they do not bother anybody
        either. PCS devices are usually managed in Linux as raw MDIO devices.
        Nonetheless, they do not have a PHY driver, nor does anybody attempt
        to connect to them (because they are not a PHY), and therefore this
        patch breaks that.
      
      The goal itself of the patch is questionable, so I am going for a
      straight revert. to_phy_driver does not seem to have a need to be
      replaced by phydev->drv, in fact that might even trigger code paths
      which were not given too deep of a thought.
      
      For instance:
      
      phy_probe populates phydev->drv at the beginning, but does not clean it
      up on any error (including EPROBE_DEFER). So if the phydev driver
      requests probe deferral, phydev->drv will remain populated despite there
      being no driver bound.
      
      If a system suspend starts in between the initial probe deferral request
      and the subsequent probe retry, we will be calling the phydev->drv->suspend
      method, but _before_ any phydev->drv->probe call has succeeded.
      
      That is to say, if the phydev->drv is allocating any driver-private data
      structure in ->probe, it pretty much expects that data structure to be
      available in ->suspend. But it may not. That is a pretty insane
      environment to present to PHY drivers.
      
      In the code structure before the blamed patch, mdio_bus_phy_may_suspend
      would just say "no, don't suspend" to any PHY device which does not have
      a driver pointer _in_the_device_structure_ (not the phydev->drv). That
      would essentially ensure that ->suspend will never get called for a
      device that has not yet successfully completed probe. This is the code
      structure the patch is returning to, via the revert.

      net: dsa: destroy the phylink instance on any error in dsa_slave_phy_setup · 6a52e733
      Vladimir Oltean authored
      DSA supports connecting to a phy-handle, and has a fallback to a non-OF
      based method of connecting to an internal PHY on the switch's own MDIO
      bus, if no phy-handle and no fixed-link nodes were present.
      
      The -ENODEV error code from the first attempt (phylink_of_phy_connect)
      is what triggers the second attempt (phylink_connect_phy).
      
      However, when the first attempt returns a different error code than
      -ENODEV, this results in an unbalance of calls to phylink_create and
      phylink_destroy by the time we exit the function. The phylink instance
      has leaked.
      
      There are many other error codes that can be returned by
      phylink_of_phy_connect. For example, phylink_validate returns -EINVAL.
      So this is a practical issue too.

      qnx4: avoid stringop-overread errors · b7213ffa
      Linus Torvalds authored
      The qnx4 directory entries are 64-byte blocks that have different
      contents depending on the a status byte that is in the last byte of the
      block.
      
      In particular, a directory entry can be either a "link info" entry with
      a 48-byte name and pointers to the real inode information, or an "inode
      entry" with a smaller 16-byte name and the full inode information.
      
      But the code was written to always just treat the directory name as if
      it was part of that "inode entry", and just extend the name to the
      longer case if the status byte said it was a link entry.
      
      That work just fine and gives the right results, but now that gcc is
      tracking data structure accesses much more, the code can trigger a
      compiler error about using up to 48 bytes (the long name) in a structure
      that only has that shorter name in it:
      
         fs/qnx4/dir.c: In function ‘qnx4_readdir’:
         fs/qnx4/dir.c:51:32: error: ‘strnlen’ specified bound 48 exceeds source size 16 [-Werror=stringop-overread]

               |                                ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

      which is because the source code doesn't really make this whole "one of
      two different types" explicit.
      
      Fix this by introducing a very explicit union of the two types, and
      basically explaining to the compiler what is really going on.

      sparc: avoid stringop-overread errors · fc7c028d
      Linus Torvalds authored
      The sparc mdesc code does pointer games with 'struct mdesc_hdr', but
      didn't describe to the compiler how that header is then followed by the
      data that the header describes.
      
      As a result, gcc is now unhappy since it does stricter pointer range
      tracking, and doesn't understand about how these things work.  This
      results in various errors like:
      
          arch/sparc/kernel/mdesc.c: In function ‘mdesc_node_by_name’:
          arch/sparc/kernel/mdesc.c:647:22: error: ‘strcmp’ reading 1 or more bytes from a region of size 0 [-Werror=stringop-overread]
            647 |                 if (!strcmp(names + ep[ret].name_offset, name))
                |                      ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
      
      which are easily avoided by just describing 'struct mdesc_hdr' better,
      and making the node_block() helper function look into that unsized
      data[] that follows the header.
      
      This makes the sparc64 build happy again at least for my cross-compiler
      version (gcc version 11.2.1).

      Most of the contents of setup.h have no value for userspace
      applications.  The file was probably moved to uapi accidentally.
      
      Keep the file in uapi to define the alpha-specific COMMAND_LINE_SIZE.
      Move all other defines to arch/alpha/include/asm/setup.h.

      drm/ttm: fix type mismatch error on sparc64 · 3ca706c1
      Huang Rui authored
      On sparc64, __fls() returns an "int", but the drm TTM code expected it
      to be "unsigned long" as on x86.  As a result, on sparc (and arc, and
      m68k) you get build errors because 'min()' checks that the types match.
      
      As suggested by Linus, it can use min_t instead of min to force the type
      to be "unsigned int".

      memblock: introduce saner 'memblock_free_ptr()' interface · 77e02cf5
      Linus Torvalds authored
      The boot-time allocation interface for memblock is a mess, with
      'memblock_alloc()' returning a virtual pointer, but then you are
      supposed to free it with 'memblock_free()' that takes a _physical_
      address.
      
      Not only is that all kinds of strange and illogical, but it actually
      causes bugs, when people then use it like a normal allocation function,
      and it fails spectacularly on a NULL pointer:
      
         https://lore.kernel.org/all/20210912140820.GD25450@xsang-OptiPlex-9020/
      
      or just random memory corruption if the debug checks don't catch it:
      
         https://lore.kernel.org/all/61ab2d0c-3313-aaab-514c-e15b7aa054a0@suse.cz/
      
      I really don't want to apply patches that treat the symptoms, when the
      fundamental cause is this horribly confusing interface.
      
      I started out looking at just automating a sane replacement sequence,
      but because of this mix or virtual and physical addresses, and because
      people have used the "__pa()" macro that can take either a regular
      kernel pointer, or just the raw "unsigned long" address, it's all quite
      messy.
      
      So this just introduces a new saner interface for freeing a virtual
      address that was allocated using 'memblock_alloc()', and that was kept
      as a regular kernel pointer.  And then it converts a couple of users
      that are obvious and easy to test, including the 'xbc_nodes' case in
      lib/bootconfig.c that caused problems.

      ipc: remove memcg accounting for sops objects in do_semtimedop() · 6a4746ba
      Vasily Averin authored
      Linus proposes to revert an accounting for sops objects in
      do_semtimedop() because it's really just a temporary buffer
      for a single semtimedop() system call.
      
      This object can consume up to 2 pages, syscall is sleeping
      one, size and duration can be controlled by user, and this
      allocation can be repeated by many thread at the same time.
      
      However Shakeel Butt pointed that there are much more popular
      objects with the same life time and similar memory
      consumption, the accounting of which was decided to be
      rejected for performance reasons.
      
      Considering at least 2 pages for task_struct and 2 pages for
      the kernel stack, a back of the envelope calculation gives a
      footprint amplification of <1.5 so this temporal buffer can be
      safely ignored.
      
      The factor would IMO be interesting if it was >> 2 (from the
      PoV of excessive (ab)use, fine-grained accounting seems to be
      currently unfeasible due to performance impact).

      powerpc/boot: Fix build failure since GCC 4.9 removal · 1619b69e
      Michael Ellerman authored
      Stephen reported that the build was broken since commit
      6d2ef226 ("compiler_attributes.h: drop __has_attribute() support for
      gcc4"), with errors such as:
      
        include/linux/compiler_attributes.h:296:5: warning: "__has_attribute" is not defined, evaluates to 0 [-Wundef]
          296 | #if __has_attribute(__warning__)
              |     ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
        make[2]: *** [arch/powerpc/boot/Makefile:225: arch/powerpc/boot/crt0.o] Error 1
      
      But we expect __has_attribute() to always be defined now that we've
      stopped using GCC 4.
      
      Linus debugged it to the point of reading the GCC sources, and noticing
      that the problem is that __has_attribute() is not defined when
      preprocessing assembly files, which is what we're doing here.
      
      Our assembly files don't include, or need, compiler_attributes.h, but
      they are getting it unconditionally from the -include in BOOT_CFLAGS,
      which is then added in its entirety to BOOT_AFLAGS.
      
      That -include was added in commit 77433830 ("powerpc: boot: include
      compiler_attributes.h") so that we'd have "fallthrough" and other
      attributes defined for the C files in arch/powerpc/boot. But it's not
      needed for assembly files.
      
      The minimal fix is to move the addition to BOOT_CFLAGS of -include
      compiler_attributes.h until after we've copied BOOT_CFLAGS into
      BOOT_AFLAGS. That avoids including compiler_attributes.h for asm files,
      but makes no other change to BOOT_CFLAGS or BOOT_AFLAGS.
