      net: nps_enet: Tx handler synchronization · e5df49d5
      Elad Kanfi authored
      Below is a description of a possible problematic
      sequence. CPU-A is sending a frame and CPU-B handles
      the interrupt that indicates the frame was sent. CPU-B
      reads an invalid value of tx_packet_sent.
      
      	CPU-A				CPU-B
      	-----				-----
      	nps_enet_send_frame
      	.
      	.
      	tx_skb = skb
      	tx_packet_sent = true
      	order HW to start tx
      	.
      	.
      	HW complete tx
      			    ------> 	get tx complete interrupt
      					.
      					.
      					if(tx_packet_sent == true)
      						handle tx_skb
      
      	end memory transaction
      	(tx_packet_sent actually
      	 written)
      
      Furthermore there is a dependency between tx_skb and tx_packet_sent.
      There is no assurance that tx_skb contains a valid pointer at CPU B
      when it sees tx_packet_sent == true.
      
      Solution:
      
      Initialize tx_skb to NULL and use it to indicate that packet was sent,
      in this way tx_packet_sent can be removed.
      Add a write memory barrier after setting tx_skb in order to make sure
      that it is valid before HW is informed and IRQ is fired.
      
      Fixed sequence will be:
      
             CPU-A                           CPU-B
             -----                           -----
      
      	tx_skb = skb
      	wmb()
      	.
      	.
      	order HW to start tx
      	.
      	.
      	HW complete tx
      			------>		get tx complete interrupt
      					.
      					.
      					if(tx_skb != NULL)
      						handle tx_skb
      
      					tx_skb = NULL

      net: fix a kernel infoleak in x25 module · 79e48650
      Kangjie Lu authored
      Stack object "dte_facilities" is allocated in x25_rx_call_request(),
      which is supposed to be initialized in x25_negotiate_facilities.
      However, 5 fields (8 bytes in total) are not initialized. This
      object is then copied to userland via copy_to_user, thus infoleak
      occurs.

      ravb: Add missing free_irq() call to ravb_close() · 7fa816b9
      Geert Uytterhoeven authored
      When reopening the network device on ra7795/salvator-x, e.g. after a
      DHCP timeout:
      
          IP-Config: Reopening network devices...
          genirq: Flags mismatch irq 139. 00000000 (eth0:ch24:emac) vs. 00000000 (eth0:ch24:emac)
          ravb e6800000.ethernet eth0: cannot request IRQ eth0:ch24:emac
          IP-Config: Failed to open eth0
          IP-Config: No network devices available
      
      The "mismatch" is due to requesting an IRQ that is already in use,
      while IRQF_PROBE_SHARED wasn't set.
      
      However, the real cause is that ravb_close() doesn't release the R-Car
      Gen3-specific secondary IRQ.
      
      Add the missing free_irq() call to fix this.

      uapi glibc compat: fix compile errors when glibc net/if.h included before linux/if.h · 4a91cb61
      Mikko Rapeli authored
      glibc's net/if.h contains copies of definitions from linux/if.h and these
      conflict and cause build failures if both files are included by application
      source code. Changes in uapi headers, which fixed header file dependencies to
      include linux/if.h when it was needed, e.g. commit 1ffad83d, made the
      net/if.h and linux/if.h incompatibilities visible as build failures for
      userspace applications like iproute2 and xtables-addons.
      
      This patch fixes compile errors when glibc net/if.h is included before
      linux/if.h:
      
      ./linux/if.h:99:21: error: redeclaration of enumerator ‘IFF_NOARP’

      ./linux/if.h:100:23: error: redeclaration of enumerator ‘IFF_PROMISC’
      
      The cases where linux/if.h is included before net/if.h need a similar fix in
      the glibc side, or the order of include files can be changed userspace
      code as a workaround.
      
      This change was tested in x86 userspace on Debian unstable with
      scripts/headers_compile_test.sh:
      
      $ make headers_install && \
        cd usr/include && ../../scripts/headers_compile_test.sh -l -k

      udp_offload: Set encapsulation before inner completes. · 229740c6
      Jarno Rajahalme authored
      UDP tunnel segmentation code relies on the inner offsets being set for
      an UDP tunnel GSO packet, but the inner *_complete() functions will
      set the inner offsets only if 'encapsulation' is set before calling
      them.  Currently, udp_gro_complete() sets 'encapsulation' only after
      the inner *_complete() functions are done.  This causes the inner
      offsets having invalid values after udp_gro_complete() returns, which
      in turn will make it impossible to properly segment the packet in case
      it needs to be forwarded, which would be visible to the user either as
      invalid packets being sent or as packet loss.
      
      This patch fixes this by setting skb's 'encapsulation' in
      udp_gro_complete() before calling into the inner complete functions,
      and by making each possible UDP tunnel gro_complete() callback set the
      inner_mac_header to the beginning of the tunnel payload.

      qede: prevent chip hang when increasing channels · 8e0ddc04
      Sudarsana Reddy Kalluru authored
      qede requires qed to provide enough resources to accommodate 16 combined
      channels, but that upper-bound isn't actually being enforced by it.
      Instead, qed inform back to qede how many channels can be opened based on
      available resources - but that calculation doesn't really take into account
      the resources requested by qede; Instead it considers other FW/HW available
      resources.
      
      As a result, if a user would increase the number of channels to more than
      16 [e.g., using ethtool] the chip would hang.
      
      This change increments the resources requested by qede to 64 combined
      channels instead of 16; This value is an upper bound on the possible
      available channels [due to other FW/HW resources].

           before it manages to take the first sample and one causing it to
           fail to update a structure field used in a trace point, so the
           information coming from it is less useful (Rafael Wysocki).
      
         - Fix for a problem in the sti-cpufreq driver introduced during the
           4.5 cycle that causes it to break CPU PM in multi-platform kernels
           by registering cpufreq-dt (which subsequently doesn't work)
           unconditionally and preventing the driver that would actually work
           from registering (Sudeep Holla).
      
         - Stable-candidate fix for an ARM64 cpuidle issue causing idle state
           usage counters to be incorrectly updated for idle states that were
           not entered due to errors (James Morse).
      
         - Fix for a recently introduced issue in the OPP (Operating
           Performance Points) framework causing it to print bogus error
           messages for missing optional regulators (Viresh Kumar).
      
         - Fix for a recently introduced issue in the generic device
           properties framework that may cause it to attempt to dereferece and
           invalid pointer in some cases (Heikki Krogerus).
