      gianfar: Add FCS to rx buffer size (fix) · f5b720b8
      Claudiu Manoil authored 
      For each Rx frame the eTSEC writes its FCS (Frame Check Sequence)
to the Rx buffer.

The eTSEC h/w manual states in the "Receive Buffer Descriptor Field
Descriptions" table:
"Data length is the number of octets written by the eTSEC into this BD's
data buffer if L is cleared (the value is equal to MRBLR), or, if L is
set, the length of the frame including *CRC*, FCB (if RCTRL[PRSDEP > 00),
preamble (if MACCFG2[PreAmRxEn]=1), time stamp (if RCTRL[TS] = 1) and
any padding (RCTRL[PAL])."

Though the FCS bytes are removed by the driver before passing the skb
to the net stack, the Rx buffer size computation does not currently
take into account the FCS bytes (4 bytes).
Because the Rx buffer size is multiple of 512 bytes, leaving out the
FCS is not a problem for the default MTU of 1500, as the Rx buffer size
is 1536 in this case.  However, for custom MTUs, where the difference
between the MTU size and the Rx buffer size is less, this can be a
problem as the computed Rx buffer size won't be enough to accomodate
the FCS for a received frame that is big enough (close to MTU size).
In such case the received frame is considered to be incomplete (L flag
not set in the RxBD status) and silently dropped.

Note that the driver does not currently support S/G on Rx, so it has to
compute its Rx buffer size based on the MTU of the device.

      virtio_net: fix use after free · 4b7fd2e6
      Michael S. Tsirkin authored 
      commit 0b725a2c
    net: Remove ndo_xmit_flush netdev operation, use signalling instead.

added code that looks at skb->xmit_more after the skb has
been put in TX VQ. Since some paths process the ring and free the skb
immediately, this can cause use after free.

Fix by storing xmit_more in a local variable.

      net: fec: ptp: fix convergence issue to support LinuxPTP stack · 28b5f058
      Nimrod Andy authored 
      iMX6SX IEEE 1588 module has one hw issue in capturing the ATVR register.
The current SW flow is:
		ENET0->ATCR |= ENET_ATCR_CAPTURE_MASK;
		ts_counter_ns = ENET0->ATVR;
The ATVR value is not expected value that cause LinuxPTP stack cannot be convergent.

ENET Block Guide/ Chapter for the iMX6SX (PELE) address the issue:
After set ENET_ATCR[Capture], there need some time cycles before the counter
value is capture in the register clock domain. The wait-time-cycles is at least
6 clock cycles of the slower clock between the register clock and the 1588 clock.
So need something like:
		ENET0->ATCR |= ENET_ATCR_CAPTURE_MASK;
		wait();
		ts_counter_ns = ENET0->ATVR;

For iMX6SX, the 1588 ts_clk is fixed to 25Mhz, register clock is 66Mhz, so the
wait-time-cycles must be greater than 240ns (40ns * 6). The patch add 1us delay
before cpu read ATVR register.

Changes V2:
Modify the commit/comments log to describe the issue clearly.
