      tile: handle __ro_after_init like parisc does · e123386b
      Chris Metcalf authored
      The tile architecture already marks RO_DATA as read-only in
      the kernel, so grouping RO_AFTER_INIT_DATA with RO_DATA, as is
      done by default, means the kernel faults in init when it tries
      to write to RO_AFTER_INIT_DATA.  For now, just arrange that
      __ro_after_init is handled like __write_once, i.e. __read_mostly.

      mlxsw: spectrum_router: Flush FIB tables during fini · ac571de9
      Ido Schimmel authored
      Since commit b45f64d1 ("mlxsw: spectrum_router: Use FIB notifications
      instead of switchdev calls") we reflect to the device the entire FIB
      table and not only FIBs that point to netdevs created by the driver.
      
      During module removal, FIBs of the second type are removed following
      NETDEV_UNREGISTER events sent. The other FIBs are still present in both
      the driver's cache and the device's table.
      
      Fix this by iterating over all the FIB tables in the device and flush
      them. There's no need to take locks, as we're the only writer.

      net: stmmac: Fix lack of link transition for fixed PHYs · c51e424d
      Florian Fainelli authored
      Commit 52f95bbf ("stmmac: fix adjust link call in case of a switch
      is attached") added some logic to avoid polling the fixed PHY and
      therefore invoking the adjust_link callback more than once, since this
      is a fixed PHY and link events won't be generated.
      
      This works fine the first time, because we start with phydev->irq =
      PHY_POLL, so we call adjust_link, then we set phydev->irq =
      PHY_IGNORE_INTERRUPT and we stop polling the PHY.
      
      Now, if we called ndo_close(), which calls both phy_stop() and does an
      explicit netif_carrier_off(), we end up with a link down. Upon calling
      ndo_open() again, despite starting the PHY state machine, we have
      PHY_IGNORE_INTERRUPT set, and we generate no link event at all, so the
      link is permanently down.

      sctp: change sk state only when it has assocs in sctp_shutdown · 5bf35ddf
      Xin Long authored
      Now when users shutdown a sock with SEND_SHUTDOWN in sctp, even if
      this sock has no connection (assoc), sk state would be changed to
      SCTP_SS_CLOSING, which is not as we expect.
      
      Besides, after that if users try to listen on this sock, kernel
      could even panic when it dereference sctp_sk(sk)->bind_hash in
      sctp_inet_listen, as bind_hash is null when sock has no assoc.
      
      This patch is to move sk state change after checking sk assocs
      is not empty, and also merge these two if() conditions and reduce
      indent level.

      ====================
      bnx2: Wait for in-flight DMA to complete at probe stage
      
      This is v2 post.
      
      In commit 3e1be7ad ("bnx2: Reset device during driver initialization"),
      firmware requesting code was moved from open stage to probe stage.
      The reason is in kdump kernel hardware iommu need device be reset in
      driver probe stage, otherwise those in-flight DMA from 1st kernel
      will continue going and look up into the newly created io-page tables.
      However bnx2 chip resetting involves firmware requesting issue, that
      need be done in open stage.
      
      Michale Chan suggested we can just wait for the old in-flight DMA to
      complete at probe stage, then though without device resetting, we
      don't need to worry the old in-flight DMA could continue looking up
      the newly created io-page tables.
      
      v1->v2:
          Michael suggested to wait for the in-flight DMA to complete at probe
          stage. So give up the old method of trying to reset chip at probe
          stage, take the new way accordingly.

      ASoC: lpass-platform: fix uninitialized variable · ee2bd216
      Linus Torvalds authored
      In commit 022d00ee ("ASoC: lpass-platform: Fix broken pcm data
      usage") the stream specific information initialization was broken, with
      the dma channel information not being initialized if there was no
      alloc_dma_channel() helper function.
      
      Before that, the DMA channel number was implicitly initialized to zero
      because the backing store was allocated with devm_kzalloc().  When the
      init code was rewritten, that implicit initialization was lost, and gcc
      rightfully complains about an uninitialized variable being used.

      This reverts commit bfd8d3f2.
      
      It turns out that this flushes things much too aggressiverly, and causes
      lines to break up when the system logger races with new continuation
      lines being printed.
      
      There's a pending patch to make printk() flushing much more
      straightforward, but it's too invasive for 4.9, so in the meantime let's
      just not make the system message logging flush continuation lines.
      They'll be flushed by the final newline anyway.

      ====================
      Netfilter updates for net-next
      
      The following patchset contains a second batch of Netfilter updates for
      your net-next tree. This includes a rework of the core hook
      infrastructure that improves Netfilter performance by ~15% according to
      synthetic benchmarks. Then, a large batch with ipset updates, including
      a new hash:ipmac set type, via Jozsef Kadlecsik. This also includes a
      couple of assorted updates.
      
      Regarding the core hook infrastructure rework to improve performance,
      using this simple drop-all packets ruleset from ingress:
      
              nft add table netdev x
              nft add chain netdev x y { type filter hook ingress device eth0 priority 0\; }
              nft add rule netdev x y drop
      
      And generating traffic through Jesper Brouer's
      samples/pktgen/pktgen_bench_xmit_mode_netif_receive.sh script using -i
      option. perf report shows nf_tables calls in its top 10:
      
          17.30%  kpktgend_0   [nf_tables]            [k] nft_do_chain
          15.75%  kpktgend_0   [kernel.vmlinux]       [k] __netif_receive_skb_core
          10.39%  kpktgend_0   [nf_tables_netdev]     [k] nft_do_chain_netdev
      
      I'm measuring here an improvement of ~15% in performance with this
      patchset, so we got +2.5Mpps more. I have used my old laptop Intel(R)
      Core(TM) i5-3320M CPU @ 2.60GHz 4-cores.
      
      This rework contains more specifically, in strict order, these patches:
      
      1) Remove compile-time debugging from core.
      
      2) Remove obsolete comments that predate the rcu era. These days it is
         well known that a Netfilter hook always runs under rcu_read_lock().
      
      3) Remove threshold handling, this is only used by br_netfilter too.
         We already have specific code to handle this from br_netfilter,
         so remove this code from the core path.
      
      4) Deprecate NF_STOP, as this is only used by br_netfilter.
      
      5) Place nf_state_hook pointer into xt_action_param structure, so
         this structure fits into one single cacheline according to pahole.
         This also implicit affects nftables since it also relies on the
         xt_action_param structure.
      
      6) Move state->hook_entries into nf_queue entry. The hook_entries
         pointer is only required by nf_queue(), so we can store this in the
         queue entry instead.
      
      7) use switch() statement to handle verdict cases.
      
      8) Remove hook_entries field from nf_hook_state structure, this is only
         required by nf_queue, so store it in nf_queue_entry structure.
      
      9) Merge nf_iterate() into nf_hook_slow() that results in a much more
         simple and readable function.
      
      10) Handle NF_REPEAT away from the core, so far the only client is
          nf_conntrack_in() and we can restart the packet processing using a
          simple goto to jump back there when the TCP requires it.
          This update required a second pass to fix fallout, fix from
          Arnd Bergmann.
      
      11) Set random seed from nft_hash when no seed is specified from
          userspace.
      
      12) Simplify nf_tables expression registration, in a much smarter way
          to save lots of boiler plate code, by Liping Zhang.
      
      13) Simplify layer 4 protocol conntrack tracker registration, from
          Davide Caratti.
      
      14) Missing CONFIG_NF_SOCKET_IPV4 dependency for udp4_lib_lookup, due
          to recent generalization of the socket infrastructure, from Arnd
          Bergmann.
      
      15) Then, the ipset batch from Jozsef, he describes it as it follows:
      
      * Cleanup: Remove extra whitespaces in ip_set.h
      * Cleanup: Mark some of the helpers arguments as const in ip_set.h
      * Cleanup: Group counter helper functions together in ip_set.h
      * struct ip_set_skbinfo is introduced instead of open coded fields
        in skbinfo get/init helper funcions.
      * Use kmalloc() in comment extension helper instead of kzalloc()
        because it is unnecessary to zero out the area just before
        explicit initialization.
      * Cleanup: Split extensions into separate files.
      * Cleanup: Separate memsize calculation code into dedicated function.
      * Cleanup: group ip_set_put_extensions() and ip_set_get_extensions()
        together.
      * Add element count to hash headers by Eric B Munson.
      * Add element count to all set types header for uniform output
        across all set types.
      * Count non-static extension memory into memsize calculation for
        userspace.
      * Cleanup: Remove redundant mtype_expire() arguments, because
        they can be get from other parameters.
      * Cleanup: Simplify mtype_expire() for hash types by removing
        one level of intendation.
      * Make NLEN compile time constant for hash types.
      * Make sure element data size is a multiple of u32 for the hash set
        types.
      * Optimize hash creation routine, exit as early as possible.
      * Make struct htype per ipset family so nets array becomes fixed size
        and thus simplifies the struct htype allocation.
      * Collapse same condition body into a single one.
      * Fix reported memory size for hash:* types, base hash bucket structure
        was not taken into account.
      * hash:ipmac type support added to ipset by Tomasz Chilinski.
      * Use setup_timer() and mod_timer() instead of init_timer()
        by Muhammad Falak R Wani, individually for the set type families.
      
      16) Remove useless connlabel field in struct netns_ct, patch from
          Florian Westphal.
      
      17) xt_find_table_lock() doesn't return ERR_PTR() anymore, so simplify
          {ip,ip6,arp}tables code that uses this.

      dsa: mv88e6xxx: Fixes for port refactoring
      
      The patches which refactored setting up the switch MACs introduced a
      couple of regressions. The RGMII delays for a port can be set using
      other mechanism than just phy-mode. Don't overwrite the delays unless
      explicitly asked to. This broke my Armada 370 RD. Also, the mv88e6351
      family supports setting RGMII delays, but is missing the necessary
      entries in the ops structures to allow this.
      
      These fixes are to patches currently in net-next. No need for stable
      etc.

      net: dsa: mv88e6xxx: Don't modify RGMII delays when not RGMII mode · fedf1865
      Andrew Lunn authored
      The RGMII modes delays can be set via strapping pings or EEPROM.
      Don't change them unless explicitly asked to change them.  The recent
      refactoring of setting the MAC configuration changed this behaviours,
      in that CPU and DSA ports have any pre-configured RGMII delays
      removed. This breaks the Armada 370RD board. Restore the previous
      behaviour, in that RGMII delays are only applied/removed when
      explicitly asked for via an phy-mode being PHY_INTERFACE_MODE_RGMII*
