      Nest rename_lock inside vfsmount_lock · 7ea600b5
      Al Viro authored
      ... lest we get livelocks between path_is_under() and d_path() and friends.
      
      The thing is, wrt fairness lglocks are more similar to rwsems than to rwlocks;
      it is possible to have thread B spin on attempt to take lock shared while thread
      A is already holding it shared, if B is on lower-numbered CPU than A and there's
      a thread C spinning on attempt to take the same lock exclusive.
      
      As the result, we need consistent ordering between vfsmount_lock (lglock) and
      rename_lock (seq_lock), even though everything that takes both is going to take
      vfsmount_lock only shared.

      Pravin B Shelar authored
      ip-header id needs to be incremented even if IP_DF flag is set.
      This behaviour was changed in commit 490ab081
      (IP_GRE: Fix IP-Identification).
      
      Following patch fixes it so that identification is always
      incremented.

      ====================
      This series contains updates to ixgbevf and igb.
      
      The ixgbevf calls to pci_disable_msix() and to free the msix_entries
      memory should not occur if device open fails.  Instead they should be
      called during device driver removal to balance with the call to
      pci_enable_msix() and the call to allocate msix_entries memory
      during the device probe and driver load.
      
      The remaining 4 of 5 igb patches are simple 1-3 line patches to fix
      several issues such as possible null pointer dereference, PHC stopping
      on max frequency, make sensor info static and SR-IOV initialization
      reordering.
      
      The remaining igb patch to fix anti-spoofing config fixes a problem
      in i350 where anti spoofing configuration was written into a wrong
      register.

      pch_gbe: fix ip_summed checksum reporting on rx · 76a0e681
      Veaceslav Falico authored
      skb->ip_summed should be CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY when the driver reports that
      checksums were correct and CHECKSUM_NONE in any other case. They're
      currently placed vice versa, which breaks the forwarding scenario. Fix it
      by placing them as described above.

      igb: fix PHC stopping on max freq · 75517d92
      Jiri Benc authored
      For 82576 MAC type, max_adj is reported as 1000000000 ppb. However, if
      this value is passed to igb_ptp_adjfreq_82576, incvalue overflows out of
      INCVALUE_82576_MASK, resulting in setting of zero TIMINCA.incvalue, stopping
      the PHC (instead of going at twice the nominal speed).
      
      Fix the advertised max_adj value to the largest value hardware can handle.
      As there is no min_adj value available (-max_adj is used instead), this will
      also prevent stopping the clock intentionally. It's probably not a big deal,
      other igb MAC types don't support stopping the clock, either.

      igb: Fix null pointer dereference · d0f63acc
      Alex Williamson authored
      The max_vfs= option has always been self limiting to the number of VFs
      supported by the device.  fa44f2f1 added SR-IOV configuration via
      sysfs, but in the process broke this self correction factor.  The
      failing path is:
      
      igb_probe
        igb_sw_init
          if (max_vfs > 7) {
              adapter->vfs_allocated_count = 7;
          ...
          igb_probe_vfs
          igb_enable_sriov(, max_vfs)
            if (num_vfs > 7) {
              err = -EPERM;
              ...
      
      This leaves vfs_allocated_count = 7 and vf_data = NULL, so we bomb out
      when igb_probe finally calls igb_reset.  It seems like a really bad
      idea, and somewhat pointless, to set vfs_allocated_count separate from
      vf_data, but limiting max_vfs is enough to avoid the null pointer.

      ixgbevf: don't release the soft entries · a1f6c6b1
      xunleer authored
      When the ixgbevf driver is opened the request to allocate MSIX irq
      vectors may fail.  In that case the driver will call ixgbevf_down()
      which will call ixgbevf_irq_disable() to clear the HW interrupt
      registers and calls synchronize_irq() using the msix_entries pointer in
      the adapter structure.  However, when the function to request the MSIX
      irq vectors failed it had already freed the msix_entries which causes
      an OOPs from using the NULL pointer in synchronize_irq().
      
      The calls to pci_disable_msix() and to free the msix_entries memory
      should not occur if device open fails.  Instead they should be called
      during device driver removal to balance with the call to
      pci_enable_msix() and the call to allocate msix_entries memory
      during the device probe and driver load.
