      net: dsa: mv88e6xxx: Set STP disable state in port_disable · 4a0eb731
      Andrew Lunn authored
      When requested to disable a port, set the port STP state to disabled.
      This fully disables the port and should save some power.

      ====================
      40GbE Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2019-05-03
      
      This series contains updates to the i40e driver only.
      
      Carolyn changes the driver behavior to now disable the VF after one MDD
      event instead of allowing a couple of MDD events before doing the reset.
      
      Aleksandr changes the driver to only report an error when a VF tries to
      remove VLAN when a port VLAN is configured, unless it is VLAN 0.  Also
      extends the LLDP support to be able to keep the current LLDP state
      persistent across a power cycle.
      
      Maciej fixes the checksum calculation due to firmware changes, which
      requires the driver to perform a double shadow RAM dump in some cases.
      
      Adam adds advertising support for 40GBase_LR4, 40GBase_CR4 and fibre in
      the driver.
      
      Jake cleans up a check that is not needed and was producing a warning in
      GCC 8.
      
      Harshitha fixes a misleading message by ensuring that a success message
      is only printed on the host side when the promiscuous mode change has
      been successful.
      
      Stefan Assmann adds the vendor id and device id to the dmesg log entry
      during probe to help with bug reports when lspci output may not be
      available.
      
      Alice and Piotr add recovery mode support in the i40e driver, which is
      needed for migrating from a structured to a flat firmware image.
      
      v2: Removed patch 1 "i40e: replace switch-statement to speed-up
          retpoline-enabled builds" from the series since it is no longer
          needed.  Also updated the last patch in the series that introduces
          recovery mode support, to include a more detailed patch description
          and removed code not intended for the upstream kernel.

      Pull io_uring fixes from Jens Axboe:
       "This is mostly io_uring fixes/tweaks. Most of these were actually done
        in time for the last -rc, but I wanted to ensure that everything
        tested out great before including them. The code delta looks larger
        than it really is, as it's mostly just comment additions/changes.
      
        Outside of the comment additions/changes, this is mostly removal of
        unnecessary barriers. In all, this pull request contains:
      
         - Tweak to how we handle errors at submission time. We now post a
           completion event if the error occurs on behalf of an sqe, instead
           of returning it through the system call. If the error happens
           outside of a specific sqe, we return the error through the system
           call. This makes it nicer to use and makes the "normal" use case
           behave the same as the offload cases. (me)
      
         - Fix for a missing req reference drop from async context (me)
      
         - If an sqe is submitted with RWF_NOWAIT, don't punt it to async
           context. Return -EAGAIN directly, instead of using it as a hint to
           do async punt. (Stefan)
      
         - Fix notes on barriers (Stefan)
      
         - Remove unnecessary barriers (Stefan)

         - Fix page allocation warning and leak on buffer registration error
           (Mark)
      
         - Fix iov_iter_type() for new no-ref flag (Ming)

      PCI/LINK: Add Kconfig option (default off) · 2078e1e7
      Keith Busch authored
      e8303bb7 ("PCI/LINK: Report degraded links via link bandwidth
      notification") added dmesg logging whenever a link changes speed or width
      to a state that is considered degraded.  Unfortunately, it cannot
      differentiate signal integrity-related link changes from those
      intentionally initiated by an endpoint driver, including drivers that may
      live in userspace or VMs when making use of vfio-pci.  Some GPU drivers
      actively manage the link state to save power, which generates a stream of
      messages like this:
      
        vfio-pci 0000:07:00.0: 32.000 Gb/s available PCIe bandwidth, limited by 2.5 GT/s x16 link at 0000:00:02.0 (capable of 64.000 Gb/s with 5 GT/s x16 link)
      
      Since we can't distinguish the intentional changes from the signal
      integrity issues, leave the reporting turned off by default.  Add a Kconfig
      option to turn it on if desired.

      udp: fix GRO packet of death · 4dd2b82d
      Eric Dumazet authored
      syzbot was able to crash host by sending UDP packets with a 0 payload.
      
      TCP does not have this issue since we do not aggregate packets without
      payload.
      
      Since dev_gro_receive() sets gso_size based on skb_gro_len(skb)
      it seems not worth trying to cope with padded packets.

      ipv6: A few fixes on dereferencing rt->from · 886b7a50
      Martin KaFai Lau authored
      It is a followup after the fix in
      commit 9c69a132 ("route: Avoid crash from dereferencing NULL rt->from")
      
      rt6_do_redirect():
      1. NULL checking is needed on rt->from because a parallel
         fib6_info delete could happen that sets rt->from to NULL.
         (e.g. rt6_remove_exception() and fib6_drop_pcpu_from()).
      
      2. fib6_info_hold() is not enough.  Same reason as (1).
         Meaning, holding dst->__refcnt cannot ensure
         rt->from is not NULL or rt->from->fib6_ref is not 0.
      
         Instead of using fib6_info_hold_safe() which ip6_rt_cache_alloc()
         is already doing, this patch chooses to extend the rcu section
         to keep "from" dereference-able after checking for NULL.
      
      inet6_rtm_getroute():
      1. NULL checking is also needed on rt->from for a similar reason.
         Note that inet6_rtm_getroute() is using RTNL_FLAG_DOIT_UNLOCKED.
      
      Fixes: a68886a6 ("net/ipv6: Make from in rt6_info rcu protected")

      rds: ib: force endiannes annotation · f3505745
      Nicholas Mc Guire authored
      While the endiannes is being handled correctly as indicated by the comment
      above the offending line - sparse was unhappy with the missing annotation
      as be64_to_cpu() expects a __be64 argument. To mitigate this annotation
      all involved variables are changed to a consistent __le64 and the
       conversion to uint64_t delayed to the call to rds_cong_map_updated().

      Merge branch 'net-mvpp2-cls-Add-classification' · f76c4b57
      David S. Miller authored
      Maxime Chevallier says:
      
      ====================
      net: mvpp2: cls: Add classification
      
      This series is a rework of the previously standalone patch adding
      classification support for mvpp2 :
      
      https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20190423075031.26074-1-maxime.chevallier@bootlin.com/
      
      This patch has been reworked according to Saeed's review, to make sure
      that the location of the rule is always respected and serves as a way to
      prioritize rules between each other. This the 3rd iteration of this
      submission, but since it's now a series, I reset the revision numbering.
      
      This series implements that in a limited configuration for now, since we
      limit the total number of rules per port to 4.
      
      The main factors for this limitation are that :
       - We share the classification tables between all ports (4 max, although
         one is only used for internal loopback), hence we have to perform a
         logical separation between rules, which is done today by dedicated
         ranges for each port in each table
      
       - The "Flow table", which dictates which lookups operations are
         performed for an ingress packet, in subdivided into 22 "sub flows",
         each corresponding to a traffic type based on the L3 proto, L4
         proto, the presence or not of a VLAN tag and the L3 fragmentation.
      
         This makes so that when adding a rule, it has to be added into each
         of these subflows, introducing duplications of entries and limiting
         our max number of entries.
      
      These limitations can be overcomed in several ways, but for readability
      sake, I'd rather submit basic classification offload support for now,
      and improve it gradually.
      
      This series also adds a small cosmetic cleanup patch (1), and also adds
      support for the "Drop" action compared to the first submission of this
      feature. It is simple enough to be added with this basic support.
      
      Compared to the first submissions, the NETIF_F_NTUPLE flag was also
      removed, following Saeed's comment.
