Once TX has been enabled on a NIC, it is illegal to access skb,
as this skb might have been freed by another cpu, from TX completion

The tulip driver causes annoying build-time warnings for allmodconfig
builds for all recent architectures:
dec/tulip/winbond-840.c:910:2: warning: #warning Processor architecture undefined
dec/tulip/tulip_core.c:101:2: warning: #warning Processor architecture undefined!
This is the last remaining warning for arm64, and I'd like to get rid of
it. We don't really know the cache line size, architecturally it would
be at least 16 bytes, but all implementations I found have 64 or 128
bytes. Configuring tulip for 32-byte lines as we do on ARM32 seems to
be the safe but slow default, and nobody who cares about performance these
days would use a tulip chip anyway, so we can just use that.
To save the next person the job of trying to find out what this is for
and picking a default for their architecture just to kill off the warning,
I'm now removing the preprocessor #warning and turning it into a pr_warn
or dev_warn that prints the equivalent information when the driver gets
loaded.

When the R8A7795 support was added to the driver, little attention was paid
to the ravb_open() error path: free_irq() for the EMAC interrupt was called
uncoditionally, unlike request_irq(), and in a wrong order as well...
As a result, on the R-Car gen2 SoCs I started getting the following in case

I've extensively used a kernel with this patch on a System76 serw9

have available for testing).
Note that as a favor to System76, Ubuntu has been carrying this as a

it real-world testing on other E2400 equipped hardware (I don't know of
any Ubuntu kernel bugs filed about it):

By default the driver allowed incorrect frames to be received. What is
worse the code does not handle very short frames correctly. The FCS
length is unconditionally subtracted, and the underflow can cause
skb_put to be called with large number after implicit cast to unsigned.
And indeed, an skb_over_panic() was observed with via-velocity.
This removes the module parameter as it does not work in it's
current state, and should be implemented via NETIF_F_RXALL if needed.

Add support for IP1000A chips to dl2k driver.
IP1000A chip looks like a TC9020 with integrated PHY.
This allows IP1000A chips to work reliably because the ipg driver is
buggy - it loses packets under load and then completely stops
transmitting data.
Tested with Asus NX1101 v2.0 at 10, 100 and 1000Mbps:
vendor=0x13f0 device=0x1023 (rev 0x41)
subsystem vendor=0x1043 device=0x8180
MAC address registers access needed to be changed from 8-bit to 16-bit
because 8-bit does not work on IP1000A. 8-bit access is not even
allowed in the TC9020 datasheet (although it worked). 16-bit access
works on both.
Tested that it does not break D-Link DGE-550T (DL-2000 chip, probably
a rebranded TC9020):
vendor=0x1186 device=0x4000 (rev 0x0c)

Prevent outgoing multicast frames from looping back to the RX queue.
By introducing new HW capability self_lb_en_modifiable, which indicates
the support to modify self_lb_en bit in modify_tir command.
When this capability is set we can prevent TIRs from sending back
loopback multicast traffic to their own RQs, by "refreshing TIRs" with
modify_tir command, on every time new channels (SQs/RQs) are created at
device open.
This is needed since TIRs are static and only allocated once on driver
load, and the loopback decision is under their responsibility.
Fixes issues of the kind:
"IPv6: eth2: IPv6 duplicate address fe80::e61d:2dff:fe5c:f2e9 detected!"
The issue is seen since the IPv6 solicitations multicast messages are
loopedback and the network stack thinks they are coming from another host.

Building dwmac-ipq806x on a 64-bit architecture produces a harmless
warning from gcc:
stmmac/dwmac-ipq806x.c: In function 'ipq806x_gmac_probe':
include/linux/bitops.h:6:19: warning: overflow in implicit constant conversion [-Woverflow]
val = QSGMII_PHY_CDR_EN |
stmmac/dwmac-ipq806x.c:333:8: note: in expansion of macro 'QSGMII_PHY_CDR_EN'
#define QSGMII_PHY_CDR_EN BIT(0)
#define BIT(nr) (1UL << (nr))
This is a result of the type conversion rules in C, when we take the
logical OR of multiple different types. In particular, we have
and unsigned long
QSGMII_PHY_CDR_EN == BIT(0) == (1ul << 0) == 0x0000000000000001ul
and a signed int
0xC << QSGMII_PHY_TX_DRV_AMP_OFFSET == 0xc0000000
which together gives a signed long value
0xffffffffc0000001l
and when this is passed into a function that takes an unsigned int type,
gcc warns about the signed overflow and the loss of the upper 32-bits that
are all ones.
This patch adds 'ul' type modifiers to the literal numbers passed in
here, so now the expression remains an 'unsigned long' with the upper
bits all zero, and that avoids the signed overflow and the warning.

Pull more power management and ACPI updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"The only new feature in this batch is support for the ACPI _CCA device
configuration object, which it a pre-requisite for future ACPI PCI
support on ARM64, but should not affect the other architectures.
The rest is fixes and cleanups, mostly in cpufreq (including
intel_pstate), the Operating Performace Points (OPP) framework and
tools (cpupower and turbostat).
Specifics:
- Support for the ACPI _CCA configuration object intended to tell the
OS whether or not a bus master device supports hardware managed
cache coherency and a new set of functions to allow drivers to
check the cache coherency support for devices in a platform
firmware interface agnostic way (Suravee Suthikulpanit, Jeremy
Linton).
- ACPI backlight quirks for ESPRIMO Mobile M9410 and Dell XPS L421X
(Aaron Lu, Hans de Goede).
- Fixes for the arm_big_little and s5pv210-cpufreq cpufreq drivers
(Jon Medhurst, Nicolas Pitre).
- kfree()-related fixup for the recently introduced CPPC cpufreq
frontend (Markus Elfring).
- intel_pstate fix reducing kernel log noise on systems where
P-states are managed by hardware (Prarit Bhargava).
- intel_pstate maintainers information update (Srinivas Pandruvada).
- cpufreq core optimization related to the handling of delayed work
items used by governors (Viresh Kumar).
- Locking fixes and cleanups of the Operating Performance Points
(OPP) framework (Viresh Kumar).
- Generic power domains framework cleanups (Lina Iyer).
- cpupower tool updates (Jacob Tanenbaum, Sriram Raghunathan, Thomas
Renninger).
- turbostat tool updates (Len Brown)"

All drivers should be using dma_set_mask / pci_set_dma_mask to try to
set the dma mask instead of just querying it. Without that some iommu
implementations may not work.
pci_dma_supported is removed entirely, but dma_supported stays for
dma_ops implementations for now.
This patch (of 15):
This ensures the dma mask that is supported by the driver is recorded
in the device structure.

After changing an interface's MTU, then bringing the interface down and
back up again, I immediately saw tons of kernel messages like below.
The reason for this bad behavior is mvneta_rxq_drop_pkts(), which calls
dma_unmap_single() on already-freed memory. So we need to switch the

The fixed_phy infrastructure is done in a way that is optional,
by providing 'static inline' helper functions doing nothing in
include/linux/phy_fixed.h for all its APIs. However, three out
of the four users (DSA, BCMGENET, and SYSTEMPORT) always
'select FIXED_PHY', presumably because they need that.
MVNETA is the fourth one, and if that is built-in but FIXED_PHY
is configured as a loadable module, we get a link error:
drivers/built-in.o: In function `mvneta_fixed_link_update':
fpga-mgr.c:(.text+0x33ed80): undefined reference to `fixed_phy_update_state'
Presumably this driver has the same dependency as the others,
so this patch also uses 'select' to ensure that the fixed-phy
support is built-in.

The bonding driver saves a copy of slaves' original mac address and then
assigns whatever mac as needed to the slave, depending on mode. In at
least modes 5 and 6 (balance-tlb, balance-alb), it often ends up being the
mac address of another slave. On release from the bond, the original mac
address is supposed to get restored via a dev_set_mac_address() call in
the bonding driver's __bond_release_one() function, which calls the
slave's ndo_set_mac_address function, which for qlcnic, is
qlcnic_set_mac().
Now, this function tries to be somewhat intelligent and exit early if
you're trying to set the mac address to the same thing that is already
set. The problem here is that adapter->mac_addr isn't in sync with
netdev->dev_addr. The qlcnic driver still has the original mac stored in
adapter->mac_addr, while the bonding driver has updated netdev->dev_addr,
so qlcnic thinks we're trying to set the same address it already has.
I think the way to go here, since the function updates both netdev and
adapter's stored mac addresses, is to check if either of them doesn't
match the newly requested mac. Simply checking netdev's value only could
result in a similar mismatch and non-update, so look at both.

__GFP_WAIT has been used to identify atomic context in callers that hold
spinlocks or are in interrupts. They are expected to be high priority and
have access one of two watermarks lower than "min" which can be referred
to as the "atomic reserve". __GFP_HIGH users get access to the first
lower watermark and can be called the "high priority reserve".
Over time, callers had a requirement to not block when fallback options
were available. Some have abused __GFP_WAIT leading to a situation where
an optimisitic allocation with a fallback option can access atomic
reserves.
This patch uses __GFP_ATOMIC to identify callers that are truely atomic,
cannot sleep and have no alternative. High priority users continue to use
__GFP_HIGH. __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM identifies callers that can sleep and
are willing to enter direct reclaim. __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM to identify
callers that want to wake kswapd for background reclaim. __GFP_WAIT is
redefined as a caller that is willing to enter direct reclaim and wake
kswapd for background reclaim.
This patch then converts a number of sites
o __GFP_ATOMIC is used by callers that are high priority and have memory
pools for those requests. GFP_ATOMIC uses this flag.
o Callers that have a limited mempool to guarantee forward progress clear
__GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM but keep __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM. bio allocations fall
into this category where kswapd will still be woken but atomic reserves
are not used as there is a one-entry mempool to guarantee progress.
o Callers that are checking if they are non-blocking should use the
helper gfpflags_allow_blocking() where possible. This is because
checking for __GFP_WAIT as was done historically now can trigger false
positives. Some exceptions like dm-crypt.c exist where the code intent
is clearer if __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM is used instead of the helper due to
flag manipulations.
o Callers that built their own GFP flags instead of starting with GFP_KERNEL
and friends now also need to specify __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM.
The first key hazard to watch out for is callers that removed __GFP_WAIT
and was depending on access to atomic reserves for inconspicuous reasons.
In some cases it may be appropriate for them to use __GFP_HIGH.
The second key hazard is callers that assembled their own combination of
GFP flags instead of starting with something like GFP_KERNEL. They may
now wish to specify __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM. It's almost certainly harmless
if it's missed in most cases as other activity will wake kswapd.
