73033c987a caif-hsi: Fix for wakeup condition problem
Under stressed conditions a race could happen when del_timer_sync() was called
from softirq context at the same time when mod_timer_pending() for the same
timer was called from the workqueue. This leaded to a state mismatch in the
CAIF HSI driver and following unexpected link wakeup procedure.

The fix puts del_timer_sync() and mod_timer_pending() calls under a spin lock
to protect against the race condition.

fe47f12508 caif-hsi: Fixing a race condition in the caif_hsi code
cfhsi->tx_state was not protected by a spin lock. TX soft-irq could interrupt
cfhsi_tx_done_work work leading to inconsistent state of the driver.

9e903e0852 net: add skb frag size accessors
To ease skb->truesize sanitization, its better to be able to localize
all references to skb frags size.

Define accessors : skb_frag_size() to fetch frag size, and
skb_frag_size_{set|add|sub}() to manipulate it.

dd767856a3 xfrm6: Don't call icmpv6_send on local error
Calling icmpv6_send() on a local message size error leads to
an incorrect update of the path mtu. So use xfrm6_local_rxpmtu()

set on an udp or raw socket, according RFC 3542 and use
ipv6_local_error() otherwise.

299b076764 ipv6: Fix IPsec slowpath fragmentation problem
ip6_append_data() builds packets based on the mtu from dst_mtu(rt->dst.path).
On IPsec the effective mtu is lower because we need to add the protocol
headers and trailers later when we do the IPsec transformations. So after
the IPsec transformations the packet might be too big, which leads to a
slowpath fragmentation then. This patch fixes this by building the packets
based on the lower IPsec mtu from dst_mtu(&rt->dst) and adapts the exthdr
handling to this.

2425717b27 net: allow vlan traffic to be received under bond
The following configuration used to work as I expected. At least
we could use the fcoe interfaces to do MPIO and the bond0 iface
to do load balancing or failover.

       ---eth2.228-fcoe
       |
eth2 -----|
          |
          |---- bond0
          |
eth3 -----|
       |
       ---eth3.228-fcoe

This worked because of a change we added to allow inactive slaves
to rx 'exact' matches. This functionality was kept intact with the
rx_handler mechanism. However now the vlan interface attached to the
active slave never receives traffic because the bonding rx_handler
updates the skb->dev and goto's another_round. Previously, the
vlan_do_receive() logic was called before the bonding rx_handler.

Now by the time vlan_do_receive calls vlan_find_dev() the
skb->dev is set to bond0 and it is clear no vlan is attached
to this iface. The vlan lookup fails.

This patch moves the VLAN check above the rx_handler. A VLAN
tagged frame is now routed to the eth2.228-fcoe iface in the
above schematic. Untagged frames continue to the bond0 as
normal. This case also remains intact,

eth2 --> bond0 --> vlan.228

Here the skb is VLAN tagged but the vlan lookup fails on eth2
causing the bonding rx_handler to be called. On the second
pass the vlan lookup is on the bond0 iface and completes as
expected.

Putting a VLAN.228 on both the bond0 and eth2 device will
result in eth2.228 receiving the skb. I don't think this is
completely unexpected and was the result prior to the rx_handler
result.

Note, the same setup is also used for other storage traffic that
MPIO is used with eg. iSCSI and similar setups can be contrived
without storage protocols.

945db2d4f4 ehea: Allocate large enough skbs to avoid partial cacheline DMA writes
The ehea adapter has a mode where it will avoid partial cacheline DMA
writes on receive by always padding packets to fall on a cacheline
boundary.

Unfortunately we currently aren't allocating enough space for a full
ethernet MTU packet to be rounded up, so this optimisation doesn't hit.

It's unfortunate that the next largest packet size exposed by the
hypervisor interface is 2kB, meaning our skb allocation comes out of a
4kB SLAB. However the performance increase due to this optimisation is
quite large and my TCP stream numbers increase from 900MB to 1000MB/sec.

a90b412cb8 e1000e: locking bug introduced by commit 67fd4fcb
Commit 67fd4fcb (e1000e: convert to stats64) added the ability to update
statistics more accurately and on-demand through the net_device_ops
.ndo_get_stats64 hook, but introduced a locking bug on 82577/8/9 when
linked at half-duplex (seen on kernels with CONFIG_DEBUG_ATOMIC_SLEEP=y and
CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING=y).  The commit introduced code paths that caused a
mutex to be locked in atomic contexts, e.g. an rcu_read_lock is held when
irqbalance reads the stats from /sys/class/net/ethX/statistics causing the
mutex to be locked to read the Phy half-duplex statistics registers.

The mutex was originally introduced to prevent concurrent accesses of
resources (the NVM and Phy) shared by the driver, firmware and hardware
a few years back when there was an issue with the NVM getting corrupted.
It was later split into two mutexes - one for the NVM and one for the Phy
when it was determined the NVM, unlike the Phy, should not be protected by
the software/firmware/hardware semaphore (arbitration of which is done in
part with the SWFLAG bit in the EXTCNF_CTRL register).  This latter
semaphore should be sufficient to prevent resource contention of the Phy in
the driver (i.e. the mutex for Phy accesses is not needed), but to be sure
the mutex is replaced with an atomic bit flag which will warn if any
contention is possible.

Also add additional debug output to help determine when the sw/fw/hw
semaphore is owned by the firmware or hardware.

5c1381ac3f libertas: fix changing interface type when interface is down
The recent changes to only power the device when the interface up
introduced a bug: changing interface type, legal when the interface
is down, performs device I/O.

Fix this functionality by validating and recording the interface
type when the change is requested, but only applying the change
if/when the interface is brought up.

bb6e753e95 nl80211: Add sta_flags to the station info
Reuse the already existing struct nl80211_sta_flag_update to specify
both, a flag mask and the flag set itself. This means
nl80211_sta_flag_update is now used for setting station flags and also
for getting station flags.
