      ppp: Fix generating ppp unit id when ifname is not specified · 3125f26c
      Pali Rohár authored
      When registering new ppp interface via PPPIOCNEWUNIT ioctl then kernel has
      to choose interface name as this ioctl API does not support specifying it.
      
      Kernel in this case register new interface with name "ppp<id>" where <id>
      is the ppp unit id, which can be obtained via PPPIOCGUNIT ioctl. This
      applies also in the case when registering new ppp interface via rtnl
      without supplying IFLA_IFNAME.
      
      PPPIOCNEWUNIT ioctl allows to specify own ppp unit id which will kernel
      assign to ppp interface, in case this ppp id is not already used by other
      ppp interface.
      
      In case user does not specify ppp unit id then kernel choose the first free
      ppp unit id. This applies also for case when creating ppp interface via
      rtnl method as it does not provide a way for specifying own ppp unit id.
      
      If some network interface (does not have to be ppp) has name "ppp<id>"
      with this first free ppp id then PPPIOCNEWUNIT ioctl or rtnl call fails.
      
      And registering new ppp interface is not possible anymore, until interface
      which holds conflicting name is renamed. Or when using rtnl method with
      custom interface name in IFLA_IFNAME.
      
      As list of allocated / used ppp unit ids is not possible to retrieve from
      kernel to userspace, userspace has no idea what happens nor which interface
      is doing this conflict.
      
      So change the algorithm how ppp unit id is generated. And choose the first
      number which is not neither used as ppp unit id nor in some network
      interface with pattern "ppp<id>".
      
      This issue can be simply reproduced by following pppd call when there is no
      ppp interface registered and also no interface with name pattern "ppp<id>":
      
          pppd ifname ppp1 +ipv6 noip noauth nolock local nodetach pty "pppd +ipv6 noip noauth nolock local nodetach notty"
      
      Or by creating the one ppp interface (which gets assigned ppp unit id 0),
      renaming it to "ppp1" and then trying to create a new ppp interface (which
      will always fails as next free ppp unit id is 1, but network interface with
      name "ppp1" exists).
      
      This patch fixes above described issue by generating new and new ppp unit
      id until some non-conflicting id with network interfaces is generated.

      ppp: Fix generating ifname when empty IFLA_IFNAME is specified · 2459dcb9
      Pali Rohár authored
      IFLA_IFNAME is nul-term string which means that IFLA_IFNAME buffer can be
      larger than length of string which contains.
      
      Function __rtnl_newlink() generates new own ifname if either IFLA_IFNAME
      was not specified at all or userspace passed empty nul-term string.
      
      It is expected that if userspace does not specify ifname for new ppp netdev
      then kernel generates one in format "ppp<id>" where id matches to the ppp
      unit id which can be later obtained by PPPIOCGUNIT ioctl.
      
      And it works in this way if IFLA_IFNAME is not specified at all. But it
      does not work when IFLA_IFNAME is specified with empty string.
      
      So fix this logic also for empty IFLA_IFNAME in ppp_nl_newlink() function
      and correctly generates ifname based on ppp unit identifier if userspace
      did not provided preferred ifname.
      
      Without this patch when IFLA_IFNAME was specified with empty string then
      kernel created a new ppp interface in format "ppp<id>" but id did not
      match ppp unit id returned by PPPIOCGUNIT ioctl. In this case id was some
      number generated by __rtnl_newlink() function.

      ====================
      bnxt_en: PTP fixes
      
      This series includes 2 fixes for the PTP feature.  Update to the new
      firmware interface so that the driver can pass the PTP sequence number
      header offset of TX packets to the firmware.  This is needed for all
      PTP packet types (v1, v2, with or without VLAN) to work.  The 2nd
      fix is to use a different register window to read the PHC to avoid
      conflict with an older Broadcom tool.

      Ben Hutchings authored
      Commit a5e63c7d "net: phy: micrel: Fix detection of ksz87xx
      switch" broke link detection on the external ports of the KSZ8795.
      
      The previously unused phy_driver structure for these devices specifies
      config_aneg and read_status functions that appear to be designed for a
      fixed link and do not work with the embedded PHYs in the KSZ8795.
      
      Delete the use of these functions in favour of the generic PHY
      implementations which were used previously.
