      net: stmmac: Improve mcast/ucast filter for snps
      
      This patch series adds Synopsys specific bindings for the Synopsys EMAC
      filter characteristics since those are implementation dependent. The
      multicast and unicast filtering code was improved to handle different
      configuration variations based on device tree settings.
      
      I verified the operation of the multicast and unicast filters through
      Synopsys support as requested during the V1 review, and tested the GMAC
      configuration on an Altera Cyclone 5 SOC (which supports 256 multicast
      bins and 128 Unicast addresses). The 10/100 variant of this driver
      modification was not tested, although it was compile tested. I shared
      the email thread results of the investigation through Synopsys with the
      stmmac maintainer.
      
      V4: Remove patch from series that addressed a sparse issue from a
          down rev'd version of sparse that does not show up in the
          latest version of sparse.
      V3: Break up the patch into interface and functional change patches
          per review comments
      V2: Confirm with Synopsys methods to determine number of Multicast bins
          and Unicast address filter entries per first round review comments.

      net: stmmac: Support devicetree configs for mcast and ucast filter entries · 3b57de95
      Vince Bridgers authored
      This patch adds and modifies code to support multiple Multicast and Unicast
      Synopsys MAC filter configurations. The default configuration is defined to
      support legacy driver behavior, which is 64 Multicast bins. The Unicast
      filter code previously assumed all controllers support 32 or 16 Unicast
      addresses based on controller version number, but this has been corrected
      to support a default of 1 Unicast address. The filter configuration may
      be specified through the devicetree using a Synopsys specific device tree
      entry. This information was verified with Synopsys through
      Synopsys Support Case #8000684337 and shared with the maintainer.

      dts: Add bindings for multicast hash bins and perfect filter entries · 94ceaa26
      Vince Bridgers authored
      This change adds bindings for the number of multicast hash bins and perfect
      filter entries supported by the Synopsys EMAC. The Synopsys EMAC core is
      configurable at device creation time, and can be configured for a different
      number of multicast hash bins and a different number of perfect filter
      entries. The device does not provide a way to query these parameters,
      therefore parameters are required. The Altera Cyclone V SOC has support for
      256 multicast hash bins and 128 perfect filter entries, and is different
      than what's currently provided in the stmmac driver.

      net: stmmac: Correct set_filter for multicast and unicast cases · aefef4c1
      Vince Bridgers authored
      This patch removes the check for the number of mulitcast addresses
      when using hash based filtering since it's not necessary. If the number
      of multicast addresses in the list exceeds the number of multicast hash
      bins, the bins will "fold" over into one of the bins configured and
      enabled for the particular component instance.
      
      The default number of maximum unicast addresses was changed from 32 to 1
      since this number is not dependent on the component revision. The maximum
      number of multicast and unicast addresses is dependent on the configuration
      of the Synopsys EMAC configured by the SOC architect at the time the
      features were selected and configured for a particular component. Sadly,
      Synopsys does not provide a way to query the precise number supported
      by a particular component, so we must fall back on a devicetree entry.
      This configuration could vary from vendor to vendor (such as STMicro,
      Altera, etc).
      
      The multicast bins are set for every possible filtering case (including
      no entries) - previously the bits were set only if multicast filter entries
      were present.

      net: stmmac: Change MAC interface to support multiple filter configurations · 7ed24bbe
      Vince Bridgers authored
      The synopsys EMAC can be configured for different numbers of multicast hash
      bins and perfect filter entries at device creation time and there's no way
      to query this configuration information at runtime. As a result, a devicetree
      parameter is required in order for the driver to program these filters
      correctly for a particular device instance. This patch modifies the
      10/100/1000 MAC software interface such that these configuration parameters
      can be set at initialization time.

      ====================
      Netfilter updates for net-next
      
      The following patchset contains netfilter updates for net-next, they are:
      
      1) Add the reject expression for the nf_tables bridge family, this
         allows us to send explicit reject (TCP RST / ICMP dest unrech) to
         the packets matching a rule.
      
      2) Simplify and consolidate the nf_tables set dumping logic. This uses
         netlink control->data to filter out depending on the request.
      
      3) Perform garbage collection in xt_hashlimit using a workqueue instead
         of a timer, which is problematic when many entries are in place in
         the tables, from Eric Dumazet.
      
      4) Remove leftover code from the removed ulog target support, from
         Paul Bolle.
      
      5) Dump unmodified flags in the netfilter packet accounting when resetting
         counters, so userspace knows that a counter was in overquota situation,
         from Alexey Perevalov.
      
      6) Fix wrong usage of the bitwise functions in nfnetlink_acct, also from
         Alexey.
      
      7) Fix a crash when adding new set element with an empty NFTA_SET_ELEM_LIST
         attribute.
      
      This patchset also includes a couple of cleanups for xt_LED from
      Duan Jiong and for nf_conntrack_ipv4 (using coccinelle) from
      Himangi Saraogi.

      tcp_metrics to root user only. This is a change from how these values could
      have been fetched when in the old route cache. Unless there's a legitimate
      reason to restrict the reading of these values it would be better if normal
      users could fetch them.

      ====================
      net: libphy: Add phy specific functions to access mmd regs
      
      This set of patches addresses a problem found with the Micrel ksz9021 phy and
      libphy, where the ksz9021 phy does not support mmd extended register access
      per the IEEE specification as assumed by libphy. The first patch adds a
      framework for phy specific support to specify their own function to access
      extended phy registers, return a failure code if not supported, or to default
      to libphy's IEEE defined method for accessing the mmd extended phy registers.
      
      This issue was found by using the Synopsys EMAC and a Micrel ksz9021 phy on the
      Altera Cyclone 5 SOC development kit. This patch was tested on the same system
      in both positive and negative test cases.
      
      V5: Revert name of mmd register access functions, check for phy specific
          driver override functions in mmd register access functions per
          Florian's comments to minimize source code changes
      V4: Correct error when formatting V3 patch - erroneous text cut from code
      V3: Correct formatting of function arguments, remove return statement from
          NULL functions, and add patch for PHY driver documentation per review

          framework required for the modification and for the Micrel Phy.

      The Micrel ksz9021 PHY does not support standard IEEE standard MMD

      was observed on an Altera Cyclone V SOC development kit that
      uses the Synopsys EMAC and the Micrel ksz9021 PHY. This patch
      was tested on the same board, and Energy Efficient Ethernet is
      now disabled as expected since the Micrel PHY does not support that
      feature.

      net: libphy: Add phy specific function to access mmd phy registers · 0c1d77df
      Vince Bridgers authored
      libphy was originally written assuming all phy devices support clause 45
      access extensions to the mmd registers through the indirection registers
      located within the first 16 phy registers. This assumption is not true
      in all cases, and one specific example is the Micrel ksz9021 10/100/1000
      Mbps phy. Using the stmmac driver, accessing the mmd registers to query
      and configure energy efficient Ethernet (EEE) features yielded unexpected
      behavior.
      
      This patch adds mmd access functions to the phy driver that can be
      overriden by the phy specific driver if the phy does not support this
      mechanism or uses it's own non-standard access mechanism. By default,
      the IEEE Compatible clause 45 access mechanism described in clause 22
      is used. With this patch, EEE query/configure functions as expected
      using the stmmac and the Micrel ksz9021 phy.

      net: filter: don't release unattached filter through call_rcu() · 34c5bd66
      Pablo Neira authored
      sk_unattached_filter_destroy() does not always need to release the
      filter object via rcu. Since this filter is never attached to the
      socket, the caller should be responsible for releasing the filter
      in a safe way, which may not necessarily imply rcu.
      
      This is a short summary of clients of this function:
      
      1) xt_bpf.c and cls_bpf.c use the bpf matchers from rules, these rules
         are removed from the packet path before the filter is released. Thus,
         the framework makes sure the filter is safely removed.
      
      2) In the ppp driver, the ppp_lock ensures serialization between the
         xmit and filter attachment/detachment path. This doesn't use rcu
         so deferred release via rcu makes no sense.
      
      3) In the isdn/ppp driver, it is called from isdn_ppp_release()
         the isdn_ppp_ioctl(). This driver uses mutex and spinlocks, no rcu.
         Thus, deferred rcu makes no sense to me either, the deferred releases
         may be just masking the effects of wrong locking strategy, which
         should be fixed in the driver itself.
      
      4) In the team driver, this is the only place where the rcu
         synchronization with unattached filter is used. Therefore, this
         patch introduces synchronize_rcu() which is called from the
         genetlink path to make sure the filter doesn't go away while packets
         are still walking over it. I think we can revisit this once struct
         bpf_prog (that only wraps specific bpf code bits) is in place, then
         add some specific struct rcu_head in the scope of the team driver if
         Jiri thinks this is needed.
      
      Deferred rcu release for unattached filters was originally introduced
      in 302d6637 ("filter: Allow to create sk-unattached filters").
