hwrm_send_message() is replaced with _hwrm_send_message(), and hwrm_cmd_lock mutex lock is grabbed for the whole period of firmware call until the firmware DCB parameters have been copied. This will prevent possible corruption of the firmware data. Fixes: 7df4ae9f ("bnxt_en: Implement DCBNL to support host-based DCBX.")

In bnxt_find_nvram_item(), it is copying firmware response data after releasing the mutex. This can cause the firmware response data to be corrupted if the next firmware response overwrites the response buffer. The rare problem shows up when running ethtool -i repeatedly. Fix it by calling the new variant _hwrm_send_message_silent() that requires the caller to take the mutex and to release it after the response data has been copied.

As a further improvement to the PF/VF link change logic, use a private mutex instead of the rtnl lock to protect link change logic. With the new mutex, we don't have to take the rtnl lock in the workqueue when we have to handle link related functions. If the VF and PF drivers are running on the same host and both take the rtnl lock and one is waiting for the other, it will cause timeout. This patch fixes these timeouts.

Link status query firmware messages originating from the VFs are forwarded to the PF. The driver handles these interactions in a workqueue for the VF and PF. The VF driver waits for the response from the PF in the workqueue. If the PF and VF driver are running on the same host and the work for both PF and VF are queued on the same workqueue, the VF driver may not get the response if the PF work item is queued behind it on the same workqueue. This will lead to the VF link query message timing out. To prevent this, we create a private workqueue for PFs instead of using the common workqueue. The VF query and PF response will never be on the same workqueue. Fixes: c0c050c5 ("bnxt_en: New Broadcom ethernet driver.")

The 88E6060 Ethernet switch always transmits the multicast bit of the switch MAC address as a zero. It re-uses the corresponding bit 8 of the register "Switch MAC Address Register Bytes 0 & 1" for "DiffAddr". If the "DiffAddr" bit is 0, then all ports transmit the same source address. If it is set to 1, then bit 2:0 are used for the port number. The mv88e6060 driver is currently wrongly shifting the MAC address byte 0 by 9. To fix this, shift it by 8 as usual and clear its bit 0.

If we ever want to compile-test the driver on 32-bit or change the way that 64-bit timespec64 is defined, we need to fix it, so let's just do it now.

Currently we drop any new VLAN ids if there are more than the current (or last used) channel can support. Most importantly this is a problem if no channel has been selected yet, resulting in a segfault. Secondly this does not necessarily reflect the capabilities of any other channels. Instead only drop a new VLAN id if we are already tracking the maximum allowed by the NCSI specification. Per-channel limits are already handled by ncsi_add_filter(), but add a message to set_one_vid() to make it obvious that the channel can not support any more VLAN ids.

rtl_init_one() currently enables PCI wakeups if the ethernet device is found to be WOL-capable. There is no need to do this when rtl8169_set_wol() will correctly enable or disable the same wakeup flag when WOL is activated/deactivated. This works around an ACPI DSDT bug which prevents the Acer laptop models Aspire ES1-533, Aspire ES1-732, PackardBell ENTE69AP and Gateway NE533 from entering S3 suspend - even when no ethernet cable is connected. On these platforms, the DSDT says that GPE08 is a wakeup source for ethernet, but this GPE fires as soon as the system goes into suspend, waking the system up immediately. Having the wakeup normally disabled avoids this issue in the default case. With this change, WOL will continue to be unusable on these platforms (it will instantly wake up if WOL is later enabled by the user) but we do not expect this to be a commonly used feature on these consumer laptops. We have separately determined that WOL works fine without any ACPI GPEs enabled during sleep, so a DSDT fix or override would be possible to make WOL work.

It looks like we weren't correctly placing the pages from buffers that had been used to return a filter programming status back on the ring. As a result they were being overwritten and tracking of the pages was lost. This change works to correct that by incorporating part of i40e_put_rx_buffer into the programming status handler code. As a result we should now be correctly placing the pages for those buffers on the re-allocation list instead of letting them stay in place.

The u-blox TOBY-L2 is a LTE Cat 4 module with HSPA+ and 2G fallback. This module allows switching to different USB profiles with the 'AT+UUSBCONF' command, and provides a ECM network interface when the 'AT+UUSBCONF=2' profile is selected. The u-blox SARA-U2 is a HSPA module with 2G fallback. The default USB configuration includes a ECM network interface. Both these modules are controlled via AT commands through one of the TTYs exposed. Connecting these modules may be done just by activating the desired PDP context with 'AT+CGACT=1,<cid>' and then running DHCP on the ECM interface.

The commit bc044e8d ("udp: perform source validation for mcast early demux") does not take into account that broadcast packets lands in the same code path and they need different checks for the source address - notably, zero source address are valid for bcast and invalid for mcast. As a result, 2nd and later broadcast packets with 0 source address landing to the same socket are dropped. This breaks dhcp servers. Since we don't have stringent performance requirements for ingress broadcast traffic, fix it by disabling UDP early demux such traffic.

It turns out that multiple places can call netlink_dump(), which means it's still possible to dereference partially initialized values in dump() that were the result of a faulty returned start(). This fixes the issue by calling start() _before_ setting cb_running to true, so that there's no chance at all of hitting the dump() function through any indirect paths. It also moves the call to start() to be when the mutex is held. This has the nice side effect of serializing invocations to start(), which is likely desirable anyway. It also prevents any possible other races that might come out of this logic. In testing this with several different pieces of tricky code to trigger these issues, this commit fixes all avenues that I'm aware of. Signed-off-by: Jason A.

A recent patch removed the dst_free() on the allocated dst_entry in ipv4_blackhole_route(). The dst_free() marked the dst_entry as dead and added it to the gc list. I.e. it was setup for a one time usage. As a result we may now have a blackhole route cached at a socket on some IPsec scenarios. This makes the connection unusable. Fix this by marking the dst_entry directly at allocation time as 'dead', so it is used only once.
