      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.
          (erroneously flushing queues on error, module parameter validation,
          etc)

      shmem: fix shm fallocate() list corruption · 10d20bd2
      Linus Torvalds authored
      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.

      net/mlx5e: Change the SQ/RQ operational state to positive logic · c0f1147d
      Mohamad Haj Yahia authored
      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.

      net/mlx5: Fix query ISSI flow · f9c14e46
      Kamal Heib authored
      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.

      tcp: warn on bogus MSS and try to amend it · dcb17d22
      Marcelo Ricardo Leitner authored
      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

      net: stmmac: clear reset value of snps, wr_osr_lmt/snps, rd_osr_lmt before writing · 6b3374cb
      Niklas Cassel authored
      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.
