Enable sparse warnings about endianness, replace the remaining fields regarding network operations without explicit endianness annotations with such that are annotated, and propagate this through the entire stack. Uses of ieee802154_addr_sa are not changed yet, this patch is only concerned with all other fields (such as address filters, operation parameters and the likes).

Add a replacement ieee802154_addr struct with proper endianness on fields. Short address fields are stored as __le16 as on the network, extended (EUI64) addresses are __le64 as opposed to the u8[8] format used previously. This disconnect with the netdev address, which is stored as big-endian u8[8], is intentional. Signed-off-by: Phoebe Buckheister <phoebe.buckheister@itwm.fraunhofer.de> Signed-off-by: David S.

The struct as currently defined uses host byte order for some fields, and most big endian/EUI display byte order for other fields. Inside the stack, endianness should ideally match network byte order where possible to minimize the number of byteswaps done in critical paths, but this patch does not address this; it is only preparatory.

If the sh_eth device is registered using OF, then the driver should call of_mdiobus_register() to register the PHYs described in the devicetree and then use of_phy_connect() to connect the PHYs to the device. This ensures that any PHYs registered in the device tree are appropriately connected to the parent devices nodes so that the PHY drivers can access their OF properties.

Eric W. Biederman says: ==================== Don't receive packets when the napi budget == 0 To the best of understanding processing any received packets when the napi budget == 0 is broken driver behavior. At the same time I don't think we have ever cared before so there are a handful of drivers that need fixes. I care now as I will shortly be using htis in netpoll to get the tx queue processing without the rx queue processing. Drivers that need fixes are few and far between, and so far I have only found two of them. More similar patches later if I find more drivers that need fixes. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

consolidate duplicate code is skb_checksum_setup() helpers Realizing that the skb_maybe_pull_tail() calls in the IP-protocol specific portions of both helpers are terminal ones (i.e. no further pulls are expected), their maximum size to be pulled can be made match their minimal size needed, thus making the code identical and hence possible to be moved into another helper.

Jeff Kirsher says: ==================== Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates This series contains updates to igb, e1000e, ixgbe and ixgbevf. Tom Herbert provides changes to e1000e, igb and ixgbe to call skb_set_hash() to set the hash and its type in an skbuff. Carolyn provides a fix for igb where using ethtool for EEE settings, which was not working correctly. Jacob provides some trivial cleanups and fixes for ixgbe which mainly dealt with the file headers. Julia Lawall provides a one fix for ixgbevf where the driver did not need to adjust the power state on suspend, so the call to pci_set_power_state() in the resume function was a no-op. v2: - dropped patches 4-6 from original series which implemented debugfs for igb from Carolyn based on feed back from David Miller and Or Gerlitz ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

John W. Linville says: ==================== For the mac80211 bits, Johannes says: "This time, I have a number of small fixes and improvements, and those are fairly straight-forward. More interesting changes come from Luca with some preparations for the CSA work, mostly around interface/channel combinations checking. One other possibly interesting change is a small one by myself to add NAPI support back to mac80211, which can help improve TCP behaviour through GRO." For the Bluetooth bits, Gustavo says: "This is our first pull request for 3.15, the main feature here is the addition of the privacy feature for low energy devices. Other than that we have a bunch of small improvements, fixes, and clean ups all over the tree." And... "Another pull request to 3.15. Here we have the second part of the LE private feature, the LE auto-connect feature and improvements to the power off procedures. The rest are small improvements, clean up, and fixes." For the iwlwifi bits, Emmanuel says: "I have here a whole bunch of various things. Trivial cleanups, debugfs handlers and new stuff for the new generation of devices along with new capabilities for monitor mode. We also have support for power save for dual interface mode, but that is not supported by the firmware currently available." And for the Atheros bits, Kalle says: "For ath10k Alexander did some cleanup to PCI error cases and switched ath10k to use pci_enable_msi_range(). Michal implemented AP CSA support and sta_rc_update() operation. I enabled firmware "STA quick kickout" functionality for faster detection of disappeared clients. Also there are lots of small fixes to everywhere from various people." I pulled the wireless tree to avoid some merge conflicts, and I reverted the staging patch that I had mistakenly merged previously. Along with that, mwifiex, brcmfmac, wil6210, ath9k, and a few other drivers get their usual round of updates. Also notable is the addition of yet another driver in the rtlwifi family. ... I have amended this commit request to correct the build problems in staging, including a warning added to one of the staging drivers by the wireless-next tree. I also included a fix from Larry Finger to address an issue found in rtl8723be by Dan Carpenter and smatch. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Daniel Borkmann authored
This is basically just to let Coverity et al shut up. Remove an unneeded NULL check in sctp_assoc_update_retran_path(). It is safe to remove it, because in sctp_assoc_update_retran_path() we iterate over the list of transports, our own transport which is asoc->peer.retran_path included. In the iteration, we skip the list head element and transports in state SCTP_UNCONFIRMED. Such transports came from peer addresses received in INIT/INIT-ACK address parameters. They are not yet confirmed by a heartbeat and not available for data transfers. We know however that in the list of transports, even if it contains such elements, it at least contains our asoc->peer.retran_path as well, so even if next to that element, we only encounter SCTP_UNCONFIRMED transports, we are always going to fall back to asoc->peer.retran_path through sctp_trans_elect_best(), as that is for sure not SCTP_UNCONFIRMED as per fbdf501c ("sctp: Do no select unconfirmed transports for retransmissions"). Whenever we call sctp_trans_elect_best() it will give us a non-NULL element back, and therefore when we break out of the loop, we are guaranteed to have a non-NULL transport pointer, and can remove the NULL check.

Eric W.

There is more coming but these changes are a good starting place, and stand on their own.
