      ====================
      net: thunderx: implement DMAC filtering support
      
      By default CN88XX BGX accepts all incoming multicast and broadcast
      packets and filtering is disabled. The nic driver doesn't provide
      an ability to change such behaviour.
      
      This series is to implement DMAC filtering management for CN88XX
      nic driver allowing user to enable/disable filtering and configure
      specific MAC addresses to filter traffic.
      
      Changes from v1:
      build issues:
       - update code in order to address compiler warnings;
      checkpatch.pl reported issues:
       - update code in order to fit 80 symbols length;
       - update commit descriptions in order to fit 80 symbols length;

      net: thunderx: add ndo_set_rx_mode callback implementation for VF · 37c3347e
      Vadim Lomovtsev authored
      The ndo_set_rx_mode() is called from atomic context which causes
      messages response timeouts while VF to PF communication via MSIx.
      To get rid of that we're copy passed mc list, parse flags and queue
      handling of kernel request to ordered workqueue.

      net: thunderx: add workqueue control structures for handle ndo_set_rx_mode request · 1b6d55f2
      Vadim Lomovtsev authored
      The kernel calls ndo_set_rx_mode() callback from atomic context which
      causes messaging timeouts between VF and PF (as they’re implemented via
      MSIx). So in order to handle ndo_set_rx_mode() we need to get rid of it.
      
      This commit implements necessary workqueue related structures to let VF
      queue kernel request processing in non-atomic context later.

      net: thunderx: add new messages for handle ndo_set_rx_mode callback · 0b849f58
      Vadim Lomovtsev authored
      The kernel calls ndo_set_rx_mode() callback supplying it will all necessary
      info, such as device state flags, multicast mac addresses list and so on.
      Since we have only 128 bits to communicate with PF we need to initiate
      several requests to PF with small/short operation each based on input data.
      
      So this commit implements following PF messages codes along with new
      data structures for them:
      NIC_MBOX_MSG_RESET_XCAST to flush all filters configured for this
                                particular network interface (VF)
      NIC_MBOX_MSG_ADD_MCAST   to add new MAC address to DMAC filter registers
                                for this particular network interface (VF)
      NIC_MBOX_MSG_SET_XCAST   to apply filtering configuration to filter control

      net: thunderx: add multicast filter management support · ceb9ea21
      Vadim Lomovtsev authored
      The ThunderX NIC could be partitioned to up to 128 VFs and thus
      represented to system. Each VF is mapped to pair BGX:LMAC, and each of VF
      is configured by kernel individually. Eventually the bunch of VFs could be
      mapped onto same pair BGX:LMAC and thus could cause several multicast
      filtering configuration requests to LMAC with the same MAC addresses.
      
      This commit is to add ThunderX NIC BGX filtering manipulation routines.

      net: thunderx: add MAC address filter tracking for LMAC · 3a34ecfd
      Vadim Lomovtsev authored
      The ThunderX NIC has two Ethernet Interfaces (BGX) each of them could has
      up to four Logical MACs configured. Each of BGX has 32 filters to be
      configured for filtering ingress packets. The number of filters available
      to particular LMAC is from 8 (if we have four LMACs configured per BGX)
      up to 32 (in case of only one LMAC is configured per BGX).
      
      At the same time the NIC could present up to 128 VFs to OS as network
      interfaces, each of them kernel will configure with set of MAC addresses
      for filtering. So to prevent dupes in BGX filter registers from different
      network interfaces it is required to cache and track all filter
      configuration requests prior to applying them onto BGX filter registers.
      
      This commit is to update LMAC structures with control fields to
      allocate/releasing filters tracking list along with implementing
      dmac array allocate/release per LMAC.

      net: thunderx: move filter register related macro into proper place · f8ad1f3f
      Vadim Lomovtsev authored
      The ThunderX NIC has set of registers which allows to configure
      filter policy for ingress packets. There are three possible regimes
      of filtering multicasts, broadcasts and unicasts: accept all, reject all
      and accept filter allowed only.
      
      Current implementation has enum with all of them and two generic macro
      for enabling filtering et all (CAM_ACCEPT) and enabling/disabling
      broadcast packets, which also should be corrected in order to represent
      register bits properly. All these values are private for driver and
      there is no need to ‘publish’ them via header file.
      
      This commit is to move filtering register manipulation values from
      header file into source with explicit assignment of exact register
      values to them to be used while register configuring.

      ====================
      Meson8m2 support for dwmac-meson8b
      
      The Meson8m2 SoC is an updated version of the Meson8 SoC. Some of the
      peripherals are shared with Meson8b (for example the watchdog registers
      and the internal temperature sensor calibration procedure).
      Meson8m2 also seems to include the same Gigabit MAC register layout as
      Meson8b.
      
      The registers in the Amlogic dwmac "glue" seem identical between Meson8b
      and Meson8m2. Manual testing seems to confirm this.
      
      To be extra-safe a new compatible string is added because there's no
      (public) documentation on the Meson8m2 SoC. This will allow us to
      implement any SoC-specific variations later on (if needed).

      liquidio: prevent rx queues from getting stalled · ccdd0b4c
      Raghu Vatsavayi authored
      This commit has fix for RX traffic issues when we stress test the driver
      with continuous ifconfig up/down under very high traffic conditions.
      
      Reason for the issue is that, in existing liquidio_stop function NAPI is
      disabled even before actual FW/HW interface is brought down via
      send_rx_ctrl_cmd(lio, 0). Between time frame of NAPI disable and actual
      interface down in firmware, firmware continuously enqueues rx traffic to
      host. When interrupt happens for new packets, host irq handler fails in
      scheduling NAPI as the NAPI is already disabled.
      
      After "ifconfig <iface> up", Host re-enables NAPI but cannot schedule it
      until it receives another Rx interrupt. Host never receives Rx interrupt as
      it never cleared the Rx interrupt it received during interface down
      operation. NIC Rx interrupt gets cleared only when Host processes queue and
      clears the queue counts. Above anomaly leads to other issues like packet
      overflow in FW/HW queues, backpressure.
      
      Fix:
      This commit fixes this issue by disabling NAPI only after informing
      firmware to stop queueing packets to host via send_rx_ctrl_cmd(lio, 0).
      send_rx_ctrl_cmd is not visible in the patch as it is already there in the
      code. The DOWN command also waits for any pending packets to be processed
      by NAPI so that the deadlock will not occur.

      Netfilter/IPVS updates for net-next
      
      The following patchset contains Netfilter/IPVS updates for your net-next
      tree. This batch comes with more input sanitization for xtables to
      address bug reports from fuzzers, preparation works to the flowtable
      infrastructure and assorted updates. In no particular order, they are:
      
      1) Make sure userspace provides a valid standard target verdict, from
         Florian Westphal.
      
      2) Sanitize error target size, also from Florian.
      
      3) Validate that last rule in basechain matches underflow/policy since
         userspace assumes this when decoding the ruleset blob that comes
         from the kernel, from Florian.
      
      4) Consolidate hook entry checks through xt_check_table_hooks(),
         patch from Florian.
      
      5) Cap ruleset allocations at 512 mbytes, 134217728 rules and reject
         very large compat offset arrays, so we have a reasonable upper limit
         and fuzzers don't exercise the oom-killer. Patches from Florian.
      
      6) Several WARN_ON checks on xtables mutex helper, from Florian.
      
      7) xt_rateest now has a hashtable per net, from Cong Wang.
      
      8) Consolidate counter allocation in xt_counters_alloc(), from Florian.
      
      9) Earlier xt_table_unlock() call in {ip,ip6,arp,eb}tables, patch
         from Xin Long.
      
      10) Set FLOW_OFFLOAD_DIR_* to IP_CT_DIR_* definitions, patch from
          Felix Fietkau.
      
      11) Consolidate code through flow_offload_fill_dir(), also from Felix.
      
      12) Inline ip6_dst_mtu_forward() just like ip_dst_mtu_maybe_forward()
          to remove a dependency with flowtable and ipv6.ko, from Felix.

      ====================
      Close race between {un, }register_netdevice_notifier and pernet_operations
      
      the problem is {,un}register_netdevice_notifier() do not take
      pernet_ops_rwsem, and they don't see network namespaces, being
      initialized in setup_net() and cleanup_net(), since at this
      time net is not hashed to net_namespace_list.
      
      This may lead to imbalance, when a notifier is called at time of
      setup_net()/net is alive, but it's not called at time of cleanup_net(),
      for the devices, hashed to the net, and vise versa. See (3/3) for
      the scheme of imbalance.
      
      This patchset fixes the problem by acquiring pernet_ops_rwsem
      at the time of {,un}register_netdevice_notifier() (3/3).
      (1-2/3) are preparations in xfrm and netfilter subsystems.
      
      The problem was introduced a long ago, but backporting won't be easy,
      since every previous kernel version may have changes in netdevice
      notifiers, and they all need review and testing. Otherwise, there
      may be more pernet_operations, which register or unregister
      netdevice notifiers, and that leads to deadlock (which is was fixed
      in 1-2/3). This patchset is for net-next.

      net: Close race between {un, }register_netdevice_notifier() and setup_net()/cleanup_net() · 328fbe74
      Kirill Tkhai authored
      {un,}register_netdevice_notifier() iterate over all net namespaces
      hashed to net_namespace_list. But pernet_operations register and
      unregister netdevices in unhashed net namespace, and they are not
      seen for netdevice notifiers. This results in asymmetry:
      
      1)Race with register_netdevice_notifier()
        pernet_operations::init(net)	...
         register_netdevice()		...
          call_netdevice_notifiers()  ...
            ... nb is not called ...
        ...				register_netdevice_notifier(nb) -> net skipped
        ...				...
        list_add_tail(&net->list, ..) ...
      
        Then, userspace stops using net, and it's destructed:
      
        pernet_operations::exit(net)
         unregister_netdevice()
          call_netdevice_notifiers()
            ... nb is called ...
      
      This always happens with net::loopback_dev, but it may be not the only device.
      
      2)Race with unregister_netdevice_notifier()
        pernet_operations::init(net)
         register_netdevice()
          call_netdevice_notifiers()
            ... nb is called ...
      
        Then, userspace stops using net, and it's destructed:
      
        list_del_rcu(&net->list)	...
        pernet_operations::exit(net)  unregister_netdevice_notifier(nb) -> net skipped
         dev_change_net_namespace()	...
          call_netdevice_notifiers()
            ... nb is not called ...
         unregister_netdevice()
          call_netdevice_notifiers()
            ... nb is not called ...
      
      This race is more danger, since dev_change_net_namespace() moves real
      network devices, which use not trivial netdevice notifiers, and if this
      will happen, the system will be left in unpredictable state.
      
      The patch closes the race. During the testing I found two places,
      where register_netdevice_notifier() is called from pernet init/exit
      methods (which led to deadlock) and fixed them (see previous patches).
      
      The review moved me to one more unusual registration place:
      raw_init() (can driver). It may be a reason of problems,
      if someone creates in-kernel CAN_RAW sockets, since they
      will be destroyed in exit method and raw_release()
      will call unregister_netdevice_notifier(). But grep over
      kernel tree does not show, someone creates such sockets
      from kernel space.
      
      Theoretically, there can be more places like this, and which are
      hidden from review, but we found them on the first bumping there
      (since there is no a race, it will be 100% reproducible).

      Register netdevice notifier for every iptable entry

      Mike Looijmans authored
      It's common practice to store MAC addresses for network interfaces into
      nvmem devices. However the code to actually do this in the kernel lacks,
      so this patch adds of_get_nvmem_mac_address() for drivers to obtain the
      address from an nvmem cell provider.
      
      This is particulary useful on devices where the ethernet interface cannot
      be configured by the bootloader, for example because it's in an FPGA.

      nfp: flower: offload phys port MTU change · 29a5dcae
      John Hurley authored
      Trigger a port mod message to request an MTU change on the NIC when any
      physical port representor is assigned a new MTU value. The driver waits
      10 msec for an ack that the FW has set the MTU. If no ack is received the
      request is rejected and an appropriate warning flagged.
      
      Rather than maintain an MTU queue per repr, one is maintained per app.
      Because the MTU ndo is protected by the rtnl lock, there can never be
      contention here. Portmod messages from the NIC are also protected by
      rtnl so we first check if the portmod is an ack and, if so, handle outside
      rtnl and the cmsg work queue.
      
      Acks are detected by the marking of a bit in a portmod response. They are
      then verfied by checking the port number and MTU value expected by the
      app. If the expected MTU is 0 then no acks are currently expected.
      
      Also, ensure that the packet headroom reserved by the flower firmware is
      considered when accepting an MTU change on any repr.

      Introduce a new 'repr_change_mtu' app callback that is hit when the MTU

      ====================
      net: Broadcom drivers coalescing fixes
      
      Following Tal's review of the adaptive RX/TX coalescing feature added to the
      SYSTEMPORT and GENET driver a number of things showed up:
      
      - adaptive TX coalescing is not actually a good idea with the current way
        the estimator will program the ring, this results in a higher CPU load, NAPI
        on TX already does a reasonably good job at maintaining the interrupt count low
      
      - both SYSTEMPORT and GENET would suffer from the same issues while configuring
        coalescing parameters where the values would just not be applied correctly
        based on user settings, so we fix that too
      
      Tal, thanks again for your feedback, I would appreciate if you could review that
      the new behavior appears to be implemented correctly.
      
      Thanks!
      
      Changes in v2:
      
      - added Tal's reviewed-by to the first patch
      - split DIM initialization from coalescing parameters initialization
      - avoid duplicating the same code in bcmgenet_set_coalesce() when configuring RX rings
      - fixed the condition where default DIM parameters would be applied when
        adaptive RX coalescing would be enabled, do this only if it was disabled before
