USB fast connect/disconnect crash fix When USB plugged/unplugged at fast rate, lan78xx_mdio_init() in lan78xx_bind() failing case is not handled. Whenever lan78xx_mdio_init() failed, dev->mdiobus will be freed, however since lan78xx_bind() not consider as error and try to proceed for further initialization in lan78xx_probe() which leads system hung/crash. Also when register_netdev() failed, netdev is freed without calling lan78xx_unbind(). Hence halting the failed cases right manner fixes the system crash/hung issue.

In the case that GRO is turned on and the original received packet is CHECKSUM_PARTIAL, if the outer UDP header is exactly at the last csum-unnecessary point, which for instance could occur if the packet comes from another Linux guest on the same Linux host, we have to do either remcsum_adjust or set up CHECKSUM_PARTIAL again with its csum_start properly reset considering RCO. However, since b7fe10e5 ("gro: Fix remcsum offload to deal with frags in GRO") that barrier in such case could be skipped if GRO turned on, hence we pass over it and the inner L4 validation mistakenly reckons it as a bad csum.

Grygorii Strashko says: ==================== net: ethernet: ti: cpts: fix tx timestamping timeout With the low Ethernet connection speed cpdma notification about packet processing can be received before CPTS TX timestamp event, which is set when packet actually left CPSW while cpdma notification is sent when packet pushed in CPSW fifo. As result, when connection is slow and CPU is fast enough TX timestamping is not working properly. Issue was discovered using timestamping tool on am57x boards with Ethernet link speed forced to 100M and on am335x-evm with Ethernet link speed forced to 10M. Patch3 - This series fixes it by introducing TX SKB queue to store PTP SKBs for which Ethernet Transmit Event hasn't been received yet and then re-check this queue with new Ethernet Transmit Events by scheduling CPTS overflow work more often until TX SKB queue is not empty. Patch 1,2 - As CPTS overflow work is time critical task it important to ensure that its scheduling is not delayed. Unfortunately, There could be significant delay in CPTS work schedule under high system load and on -RT which could cause CPTS misbehavior due to internal counter overflow and there is no way to tune CPTS overflow work execution policy and priority manually. The kthread_worker can be used instead of workqueues, as it creates separate named kthread for each worker and its its execution policy and priority can be configured using chrt tool. Instead of modifying CPTS driver itself it was proposed to it was proposed to add PTP auxiliary worker to the PHC subsystem [1], so other drivers can benefit from this feature also.

Now the call chain cpts_find_ts() |- cpts_fifo_read(cpts, CPTS_EV_PUSH) will stop reading CPTS FIFO if PUSH event is found. But this is not expected and CPTS FIFI should be completely drained here. This is most probably copy-paste error and it has no negative impact as CPTS_EV_PUSH should not be present in FIFO without TS_PUSH request and cpts_systim_read() and cpts_find_ts() synchronized by spin_lock. Correct above by calling cpts_fifo_read() with -1 parameter, so it will read all CPTS event from FIFO. Signed-off-by: Grygorii Strashko <grygorii.strashko@ti.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

As result, when connection is slow and CPU is fast enough TX timestamping is not working properly. Fix it, by introducing TX SKB queue to store PTP SKBs for which Ethernet Transmit Event hasn't been received yet and then re-check this queue with new Ethernet Transmit Events by scheduling CPTS overflow work more often (every 1 jiffies) until TX SKB queue is not empty. Side effect of this change is: - User space tools require to take into account possible delay in TX timestamp processing (for example ptp4l works with tx_timestamp_timeout=400 under net traffic and tx_timestamp_timeout=25 in idle).

There could be significant delay in CPTS work schedule under high system load and on -RT which could cause CPTS misbehavior due to internal counter overflow. Usage of own kthread_worker allows to avoid such kind of issues and makes it possible to tune priority of CPTS kthread_worker thread on -RT (thread name "cpts"). Hence, the CPTS driver is converted to use PTP auxiliary worker as PHC subsystem implements such functionality in a generic way now.

Many PTP drivers required to perform some asynchronous or periodic work, like periodically handling PHC counter overflow or handle delayed timestamp for RX/TX network packets. In most of the cases, such work is implemented using workqueues. Unfortunately, Kernel workqueues might introduce significant delay in work scheduling under high system load and on -RT, which could cause misbehavior of PTP drivers due to internal counter overflow, for example, and there is no way to tune its execution policy and priority manuallly. Hence, The kthread_worker can be used insted of workqueues, as it create separte named kthread for each worker and its its execution policy and priority can be configured using chrt tool. This prblem was reported for two drivers TI CPSW CPTS and dp83640, so instead of modifying each of these driver it was proposed to add PTP auxiliary worker to the PHC subsystem. The patch adds PTP auxiliary worker in PHC subsystem using kthread_worker and kthread_delayed_work and introduces two new PHC subsystem APIs: - long (*do_aux_work)(struct ptp_clock_info *ptp) callback in ptp_clock_info structure, which driver should assign if it require to perform asynchronous or periodic work. Driver should return the delay of the PTP next auxiliary work scheduling time (>=0) or negative value in case further scheduling is not required. - int ptp_schedule_worker(struct ptp_clock *ptp, unsigned long delay) which allows schedule PTP auxiliary work. The name of kthread_worker thread corresponds PTP PHC device name "ptp%d". Signed-off-by: Grygorii Strashko <grygorii.strashko@ti.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Since commit 67a51780 ("ipv6: udp: leverage scratch area helpers") udp6_recvmsg() read the skb len from the scratch area, to avoid a cache miss. But the UDP6 rx path support RFC 2675 UDPv6 jumbograms, and their length exceeds the 16 bits available in the scratch area. As a side effect the length returned by recvmsg() is: <ingress datagram len> % (1<<16) This commit addresses the issue allocating one more bit in the IP6CB flags field and setting it for incoming jumbograms. Such field is still in the first cacheline, so at recvmsg() time we can check it and fallback to access skb->len if required, without a measurable overhead.

The PPTP set the pptp_sock_destruct as the sock's sk_destruct, it would trigger this bug when __sk_free is invoked in atomic context, because of the call path pptp_sock_destruct->del_chan->synchronize_rcu. Now move the synchronize_rcu to pptp_release from del_chan. This is the only one case which would free the sock and need the synchronize_rcu.

Seth Forshee noticed a performance degradation with some workloads. This turns out to be due to packet drops. Euan Kemp noticed that this is because we drop all packets where length exceeds the truesize, but for some packets we add in extra memory without updating the truesize. This in turn was kept around unchanged from ab7db917 ("virtio-net: auto-tune mergeable rx buffer size for improved performance"). That commit had an internal reason not to account for the extra space: not enough bits to do it. No longer true so let's account for the allocated length exactly. Many thanks to Seth Forshee for the report and bisecting and Euan Kemp for debugging the issue.

Michał reported a NULL pointer deref during fib_sync_down_dev() when unregistering a netdevice. The problem is that we don't check for 'in_dev' being NULL, which can happen in very specific cases. Usually routes are flushed upon NETDEV_DOWN sent in either the netdev or the inetaddr notification chains. However, if an interface isn't configured with any IP address, then it's possible for host routes to be flushed following NETDEV_UNREGISTER, after NULLing dev->ip_ptr in inetdev_destroy(). To reproduce: $ ip link add type dummy $ ip route add local 1.1.1.0/24 dev dummy0 $ ip link del dev dummy0 Fix this by checking for the presence of 'in_dev' before referencing it.

Marc reported that he was not getting the PHY library adjust_link() callback function to run when calling phy_stop() + phy_disconnect() which does not indeed happen because we set the state machine to PHY_HALTED but we don't get to run it to process this state past that point. Fix this with a synchronous call to phy_state_machine() in order to have the state machine actually act on PHY_HALTED, set the PHY device's link down, turn the network device's carrier off and finally call the adjust_link() function.

Pull workqueue fixes from Tejun Heo: "Two notable fixes. - While adding NUMA affinity support to unbound workqueues, the assumption that an unbound workqueue with max_active == 1 is ordered was broken. The plan was to use explicit alloc_ordered_workqueue() for those cases. Unfortunately, I forgot to update the documentation properly and we grew a handful of use cases which depend on that assumption. While we want to convert them to alloc_ordered_workqueue(), we don't really lose anything by enforcing ordered execution on unbound max_active == 1 workqueues and it doesn't make sense to risk subtle bugs. Restore the assumption. - Workqueue assumes that CPU <-> NUMA node mapping remains static. This is a general assumption - we don't have any synchronization mechanism around CPU <-> node mapping. Unfortunately, powerpc may change the mapping dynamically leading to crashes. Michael added a workaround so that we at least don't crash while powerpc hotplug code gets updated" * 'for-4.13-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/wq: workqueue: Work around edge cases for calc of pool's cpumask workqueue: implicit ordered attribute should be overridable workqueue: restore WQ_UNBOUND/max_active==1 to be ordered
