The current logic around the 'use_dac' module parameter prevents the r81969 driver from being loadable on 64-bit systems without any RAM below 4 GB when the parameter is left at its default value. So introduce a new default value -1 which indicates that 64-bit DMA should be enabled on sufficiently recent PCIe chips, i.e., versions RTL_GIGA_MAC_VER_18 or later. Explicit param values of 0 or 1 retain the existing behavior of unconditionally enabling/disabling 64-bit DMA on 64-bit architectures (i.e., regardless of the type and version of the chip) Since PCIe chips do not need to CPlusCmd Dual Address Cycle to be set, make that conditional on the device type as well.

If you compile without OF_MDIO support in an RGMII configuration, we fail to configure the dp83867 phy today by writing garbage into its configuration registers. On the other hand if you do compile with OF_MDIO and the phy gets loaded via device tree, you have to have the properties set in the device tree, otherwise we fail to load the driver and don't even attach the generic phy driver to the interface anymore. To make things slightly more consistent, make the rgmii configuration properties optional and allow a user to omit them in their device tree. Signed-off-by:

When CONFIG_OF_MDIO is configured as module, the #define for it really is CONFIG_OF_MDIO_MODULE, not CONFIG_OF_MDIO. So if we are compiling it as module, the dp83867 doesn't see that OF_MDIO was selected and doesn't read the dt rgmii parameters. The fix is simple: Use IS_ENABLED(). It checks for both - module as well as compiled in code. Signed-off-by:

In the current implementation of ARM64 eBPF JIT, R23 and R24 are used for tmp registers, which are callee-saved registers. This leads to variable size of JIT prologue and epilogue. The latest blinding constant change prefers to constant size of prologue and epilogue. AAPCS reserves R9 ~ R15 for temp registers which not need to be saved/restored during function call. So, replace R23 and R24 to R10 and R11, and remove tmp_used flag to save 2 instructions for some jited BPF program. CC: Daniel Borkmann <daniel@iogearbox.net> Acked-by:

We found the issue also was reproducible on a x86_64 system, using a "high-speed" USB2.0 port but the throughput did not measurably drop (possibly due to the scp transfer being cpu bound on my slow test hardware). After lots of debugging, I found the check added in the problematic commit seems to be calculating the offset incorrectly. In the normal case, in the main loop of the function, we do: (where offset is zero, or set to "offset += (copy_length + 1) & 0xfffe" in the previous loop) rx->header = get_unaligned_le32(skb->data + offset); offset += sizeof(u32); But the problematic patch calculates: offset = ((rx->remaining + 1) & 0xfffe) + sizeof(u32); rx->header = get_unaligned_le32(skb->data + offset); Adding some debug logic to check those offset calculation used to find rx->header, the one in problematic code is always too large by sizeof(u32). Thus, this patch removes the incorrect " + sizeof(u32)" addition in the problematic calculation, and resolves the issue. Cc: Dean Jenkins <Dean_Jenkins@mentor.com> Cc: "David B.

Pull parallel filesystem directory handling update from Al Viro. This is the main parallel directory work by Al that makes the vfs layer able to do lookup and readdir in parallel within a single directory. That's a big change, since this used to be all protected by the directory inode mutex. The inode mutex is replaced by an rwsem, and serialization of lookups of a single name is done by a "in-progress" dentry marker. The series begins with xattr cleanups, and then ends with switching filesystems over to actually doing the readdir in parallel (switching to the "iterate_shared()" that only takes the read lock). A more detailed explanation of the process from Al Viro: "The xattr work starts with some acl fixes, then switches ->getxattr to passing inode and dentry separately. This is the point where the things start to get tricky - that got merged into the very beginning of the -rc3-based #work.lookups, to allow untangling the security_d_instantiate() mess. The xattr work itself proceeds to switch a lot of filesystems to generic_...xattr(); no complications there. After that initial xattr work, the series then does the following: - untangle security_d_instantiate() - convert a bunch of open-coded lookup_one_len_unlocked() to calls of that thing; one such place (in overlayfs) actually yields a trivial conflict with overlayfs fixes later in the cycle - overlayfs ended up switching to a variant of lookup_one_len_unlocked() sans the permission checks. I would've dropped that commit (it gets overridden on merge from #ovl-fixes in #for-next; proper resolution is to use the variant in mainline fs/overlayfs/super.c), but I didn't want to rebase the damn thing - it was fairly late in the cycle... - some filesystems had managed to depend on lookup/lookup exclusion for *fs-internal* data structures in a way that would break if we relaxed the VFS exclusion. Fixing hadn't been hard, fortunately. - core of that series - parallel lookup machinery, replacing ->i_mutex with rwsem, making lookup_slow() take it only shared. At that point lookups happen in parallel; lookups on the same name wait for the in-progress one to be done with that dentry. Surprisingly little code, at that - almost all of it is in fs/dcache.c, with fs/namei.c changes limited to lookup_slow() - making it use the new primitive and actually switching to locking shared. - parallel readdir stuff - first of all, we provide the exclusion on per-struct file basis, same as we do for read() vs lseek() for regular files. That takes care of most of the needed exclusion in readdir/readdir; however, these guys are trickier than lookups, so I went for switching them one-by-one. To do that, a new method '->iterate_shared()' is added and filesystems are switched to it as they are either confirmed to be OK with shared lock on directory or fixed to be OK with that. I hope to kill the original method come next cycle (almost all in-tree filesystems are switched already), but it's still not quite finished. - several filesystems get switched to parallel readdir. The interesting part here is dealing with dcache preseeding by readdir; that needs minor adjustment to be safe with directory locked only shared. Most of the filesystems doing that got switched to in those commits. Important exception: NFS. Turns out that NFS folks, with their, er, insistence on VFS getting the fuck out of the way of the Smart Filesystem Code That Knows How And What To Lock(tm) have grown the locking of their own. They had their own homegrown rwsem, with lookup/readdir/atomic_open being *writers* (sillyunlink is the reader there). Of course, with VFS getting the fuck out of the way, as requested, the actual smarts of the smart filesystem code etc. had become exposed... - do_last/lookup_open/atomic_open cleanups. As the result, open() without O_CREAT locks the directory only shared. Including the ->atomic_open() case. Backmerge from #for-linus in the middle of that - atomic_open() fix got brought in. - then comes NFS switch to saner (VFS-based ;-) locking, killing the homegrown "lookup and readdir are writers" kinda-sorta rwsem. All exclusion for sillyunlink/lookup is done by the parallel lookups mechanism. Exclusion between sillyunlink and rmdir is a real rwsem now - rmdir being the writer. Result: NFS lookups/readdirs/O_CREAT-less opens happen in parallel now. - the rest of the series consists of switching a lot of filesystems to parallel readdir; in a lot of cases ->llseek() gets simplified as well.

The problem is that fib_info->nh is [0] so the struct fib_info allocation size depends on number of nexthops. If we just copy fib_info, we do not copy the nexthops info and driver accesses memory which is not ours. Given the fact that fib4 does not defer operations and therefore it does not need copy, just pass the pointer down to drivers as it was done before.

Merge tag 'trace-fixes-v4.6-rc7' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace Pull tracing ring-buffer fixes from Steven Rostedt: "Hao Qin reported an integer overflow possibility with signed and unsigned numbers in the ring-buffer code. https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=118001 At first I did not think this was too much of an issue, because the overflow would be caught later when either too much data was allocated or it would trigger RB_WARN_ON() which shuts down the ring buffer. But looking closer into it, I found that the right settings could bypass the checks and crash the kernel. Luckily, this is only accessible by root. The first fix is to convert all the variables into long, such that we don't get into issues between 32 bit variables being assigned 64 bit ones. This fixes the RB_WARN_ON() triggering. The next fix is to get rid of a duplicate DIV_ROUND_UP() that when called twice with the right value, can cause a kernel crash. The first DIV_ROUND_UP() is to normalize the input and it is checked against the minimum allowable value. But then DIV_ROUND_UP() is called again, which can overflow due to the (a + b - 1)/b, logic. The first called upped the value, the second can overflow (with the +b part). The second call to DIV_ROUND_UP() came in via a second change a while ago and the code is cleaned up to remove it" * tag 'trace-fixes-v4.6-rc7' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace: ring-buffer: Prevent overflow of size in ring_buffer_resize() ring-buffer: Use long for nr_pages to avoid overflow failures

We saw the following extra refcount release on veth device: kernel: [7957821.463992] unregister_netdevice: waiting for mesos50284 to become free. Usage count = -1 Since we heavily use mirred action to redirect packets to veth, I think this is caused by the following race condition: CPU0: tcf_mirred_release(): (in RCU callback) struct net_device *dev = rcu_dereference_protected(m->tcfm_dev, 1); CPU1: mirred_device_event(): spin_lock_bh(&mirred_list_lock); list_for_each_entry(m, &mirred_list, tcfm_list) { if (rcu_access_pointer(m->tcfm_dev) == dev) { dev_put(dev); /* Note : no rcu grace period necessary, as * net_device are already rcu protected. */ RCU_INIT_POINTER(m->tcfm_dev, NULL); } } spin_unlock_bh(&mirred_list_lock); CPU0: tcf_mirred_release(): spin_lock_bh(&mirred_list_lock); list_del(&m->tcfm_list); spin_unlock_bh(&mirred_list_lock); if (dev) // <======== Stil refers to the old m->tcfm_dev dev_put(dev); // <======== dev_put() is called on it again The action init code path is good because it is impossible to modify an action that is being removed. So, fix this by moving everything under the spinlock.

This patch adds the necessary driver support for Management Firmware to configure the device/firmware with the dcbx results. Management Firmware is responsible for communicating the DCBX and driving the negotiation, but the driver has responsibility of receiving async notification and configuring the results in hw/fw. This patch also adds the dcbx support for future protocols (e.g., FCoE) as preparation to their imminent submission. Signed-off-by:

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:ch0:rx_be) vs. 00000000 (ravb e6800000.ethernet eth0: cannot request IRQ eth0:ch0:rx_be 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 any of the R-Car Gen3-specific secondary IRQs. Add the missing free_irq() calls to fix this.
