      spi: bcm2835: enabling polling mode for transfers shorter than 30us · 704f32d4
      Martin Sperl authored
      In cases of short transfer times the CPU is spending lots of time
      in the interrupt handler and scheduler to reschedule the worker thread.
      
      Measurements show that we have times where it takes 29.32us to between
      the last clock change and the time that the worker-thread is running again
      returning from wait_for_completion_timeout().
      
      During this time the interrupt-handler is running calling complete()
      and then also the scheduler is rescheduling the worker thread.
      
      This time can vary depending on how much of the code is still in
      CPU-caches, when there is a burst of spi transfers the subsequent delays
      are in the order of 25us, so the value of 30us seems reasonable.
      
      With polling the whole transfer of 4 bytes at 10MHz finishes after 6.16us
      (CS down to up) with the real transfer (clock running) taking 3.56us.
      So the efficiency has much improved and is also freeing CPU cycles,
      reducing interrupts and context switches.
      
      Because of the above 30us seems to be a reasonable limit for polling.

      spi: bcm2835: transform native-cs to gpio-cs on first spi_setup · a30a555d
      Martin Sperl authored
      Transforms the bcm-2835 native SPI-chip select to their gpio-cs equivalent.
      
      This allows for some support of some optimizations that are not
      possible due to HW-gliches on the CS line - especially filling
      the FIFO before enabling SPI interrupts (by writing to CS register)
      while the transfer is already in progress (See commit: e3a2be30)
      
      This patch also works arround some issues in bcm2835-pinctrl which does not
      set the value when setting the GPIO as output - it just sets up output and
      (typically) leaves the GPIO as low.  When a fix for this is merged then this
      gpio_set_value can get removed from bcm2835_spi_setup.

      Pull networking fixes from David Miller:
      
       1) In TCP, don't register an FRTO for cumulatively ACK'd data that was
          previously SACK'd, from Neal Cardwell.
      
       2) Need to hold RNL mutex in ipv4 multicast code namespace cleanup,
          from Cong WANG.
      
       3) Similarly we have to hold RNL mutex for fib_rules_unregister(), also
          from Cong WANG.
      
       4) Revert and rework netns nsid allocation fix, from Nicolas Dichtel.
      
       5) When we encapsulate for a tunnel device, skb->sk still points to the
          user socket.  So this leads to cases where we retraverse the
          ipv4/ipv6 output path with skb->sk being of some other address
          family (f.e. AF_PACKET).  This can cause things to crash since the
          ipv4 output path is dereferencing an AF_PACKET socket as if it were
          an ipv4 one.
      
          The short term fix for 'net' and -stable is to elide these socket
          checks once we've entered an encapsulation sequence by testing
          xmit_recursion.
      
          Longer term we have a better solution wherein we pass the tunnel's
          socket down through the output paths, but that is way too invasive
          for 'net' and -stable.
      
          From Hannes Frederic Sowa.
      
       6) l2tp_init() failure path forgets to unregister per-net ops, from
          Cong WANG.

      net: dsa: fix filling routing table from OF description · 30303813
      Pavel Nakonechny authored
      According to description in 'include/net/dsa.h', in cascade switches
      configurations where there are more than one interconnected devices,
      'rtable' array in 'dsa_chip_data' structure is used to indicate which
      port on this switch should be used to send packets to that are destined
      for corresponding switch.
      
      However, dsa_of_setup_routing_table() fills 'rtable' with port numbers
      of the _target_ switch, but not current one.
      
      This commit removes redundant devicetree parsing and adds needed port
      number as a function argument. So dsa_of_setup_routing_table() now just
      looks for target switch number by parsing parent of 'link' device node.
      
      To remove possible misunderstandings with the way of determining target
      switch number, a corresponding comment was added to the source code and
      to the DSA device tree bindings documentation file.
      
      This was tested on a custom board with two Marvell 88E6095 switches with
      following corresponding routing tables: { -1, 10 } and { 8, -1 }.

      ipv6: protect skb->sk accesses from recursive dereference inside the stack · f60e5990
      hannes@stressinduktion.org authored
      We should not consult skb->sk for output decisions in xmit recursion
      levels > 0 in the stack. Otherwise local socket settings could influence
      the result of e.g. tunnel encapsulation process.
      
      ipv6 does not conform with this in three places:
      
      1) ip6_fragment: we do consult ipv6_npinfo for frag_size
      
      2) sk_mc_loop in ipv6 uses skb->sk and checks if we should
         loop the packet back to the local socket
      
      3) ip6_skb_dst_mtu could query the settings from the user socket and
         force a wrong MTU
      
      Furthermore:
      In sk_mc_loop we could potentially land in WARN_ON(1) if we use a
      PF_PACKET socket ontop of an IPv6-backed vxlan device.
      
      Reuse xmit_recursion as we are currently only interested in protecting
      tunnel devices.

      spi: fsl-dspi: Fix clock rate scale values · e689d6df
      Aaron Brice authored
      Previous algorithm had an outer loop with the values {2,3,5,7} and an
      inner loop with {2,4,6,8,16,32,...,32768}, and would pick the first
      value over the required scaling value (where the total scale was the two
      numbers multiplied).
      
      Since the inner loop went up to 32768 it would always pick a value of 2
      for PBR and a much higher than necessary value for BR.  The desired
      scale factor was being divided by two I believe to compensate for the
      much higher scale factors (the divide by two not specified in the
      reference manual).
      
      Updated to check all values and find the smallest scale factor possible
      without going over the desired clock rate.
