Local device and link partner config auto-negotiation on both,
local device config pause frame use as: rx on/tx off,
link partner config pause frame use as: rx off/tx on.
We except the result is:
Local device:
Autonegotiate: on
RX: on
TX: off
RX negotiated: on
TX negotiated: off
Link partner:
Autonegotiate: on
RX: off
TX: on
RX negotiated: off
TX negotiated: on
But actually, the result of Local device and link partner is both:
Autonegotiate: on
RX: off
TX: off
RX negotiated: off
TX negotiated: off
The root cause is that the supported flag is has only Pause,
reference to the function genphy_config_advert():
static int genphy_config_advert(struct phy_device *phydev)
{
...
linkmode_and(phydev->advertising, phydev->advertising,
phydev->supported);
...
}
The pause frame use of link partner is rx off/tx on, so its
advertising only set the bit Asym_Pause, and the supported is
only set the bit Pause, so the result of linkmode_and(), is
rx off/tx off.
This patch adds Asym_Pause to the supported flag to fix it.

Currently when there is share buffer in the SSU(storage

PHYLINK being designed with PHYs in mind that can change MII protocol,
for correct operation it is necessary to ensure that the PHY interface
mode stays the same (otherwise clear the supported bit mask, as
required).
Because this is just a hypothetical situation for now, we don't bother
to check whether we could actually support the new PHY interface mode.
Actually we could modify the xMII table, reset the switch and send an
updated static configuration, but adding that would just be dead code.

It has been pointed out that PHYLINK can call mac_config only to update
the phy_interface_type and without knowing what the AN results are.
Experimentally, when this was observed to happen, state->link was also
unset, and therefore was used as a proxy to ignore this call. However it
is also suggested that state->link is undefined for this callback and
should not be relied upon.
So let the previously-dead codepath for SPEED_UNKNOWN be called, and
update the comment to make sure the MAC's behavior is sane.

Pull pidfd fixes from Christian Brauner:
"Userspace tools and libraries such as strace or glibc need a cheap and
reliable way to tell whether CLONE_PIDFD is supported. The easiest way
is to pass an invalid fd value in the return argument, perform the
syscall and verify the value in the return argument has been changed
to a valid fd.
However, if CLONE_PIDFD is specified we currently check if pidfd == 0
and return EINVAL if not.
The check for pidfd == 0 was originally added to enable us to abuse
the return argument for passing additional flags along with
CLONE_PIDFD in the future.
However, extending legacy clone this way would be a terrible idea and
with clone3 on the horizon and the ability to reuse CLONE_DETACHED
with CLONE_PIDFD there's no real need for this clutch. So remove the
pidfd == 0 check and help userspace out.
Also, accordig to Al, anon_inode_getfd() should only be used past the
point of no failure and ksys_close() should not be used at all since
it is far too easy to get wrong. Al's motto being "basically, once
it's in descriptor table, it's out of your control". So Al's patch
switches back to what we already had in v1 of the original patchset
and uses a anon_inode_getfile() + put_user() + fd_install() sequence
in the success path and a fput() + put_unused_fd() in the failure
path.

patch series appears to have fixed the problem, very probably due to
patch (2), but it's not 100% certain.
(1) Fix the printing of the "vnode modified" warning to exclude checks
on files for which we don't have a callback promise from the
server (and so don't expect the server to tell us when it
changes).
Without this, for every file or directory for which we still have
an in-core inode that gets changed on the server, we may get a
message logged when we next look at it. This can happen in bulk
if, for instance, someone does "vos release" to update a R/O
volume from a R/W volume and a whole set of files are all changed
together.
We only really want to log a message if the file changed and the
server didn't tell us about it or we failed to track the state
internally.
(2) Fix accidental corruption of either afs_vlserver struct objects or
the the following memory locations (which could hold anything).
The issue is caused by a union that points to two different
structs in struct afs_call (to save space in the struct). The call
cleanup code assumes that it can simply call the cleanup for one
of those structs if not NULL - when it might be actually pointing
to the other struct.
This means that every Volume Location RPC op is going to corrupt
something.
(3) Fix an uninitialised spinlock. This isn't too bad, it just causes
a one-off warning if lockdep is enabled when "vos release" is
called, but the spinlock still behaves correctly.
(4) Fix the setting of i_block in the inode. This causes du, for
example, to produce incorrect results, but otherwise should not be

Generic DIM
From: Tal Gilboa and Yamin Fridman
Implement net DIM over a generic DIM library, add RDMA DIM
dim.h lib exposes an implementation of the DIM algorithm for
dynamically-tuned interrupt moderation for networking interfaces.
We want a similar functionality for other protocols, which might need to
optimize interrupts differently. Main motivation here is DIM for NVMf
storage protocol.
Current DIM implementation prioritizes reducing interrupt overhead over
latency. Also, in order to reduce DIM's own overhead, the algorithm might
take some time to identify it needs to change profiles. While this is
acceptable for networking, it might not work well on other scenarios.
Here we propose a new structure to DIM. The idea is to allow a slightly
modified functionality without the risk of breaking Net DIM behavior for
netdev. We verified there are no degradations in current DIM behavior with
the modified solution.
Suggested solution:
- Common logic is implemented in lib/dim/dim.c
- Net DIM (existing) logic is implemented in lib/dim/net_dim.c, which uses
the common logic in dim.c
- Any new DIM logic will be implemented in "lib/dim/new_dim.c".
This new implementation will expose modified versions of profiles,
dim_step() and dim_decision().
- DIM API is declared in include/linux/dim.h for all implementations.
Pros for this solution are:
- Zero impact on existing net_dim implementation and usage
- Relatively more code reuse (compared to two separate solutions)
- Increased extensibility

Gateway validation does not need a dst_entry, it only needs the fib
entry to validate the gateway resolution and egress device. So,
convert ip6_nh_lookup_table from ip6_pol_route to fib6_table_lookup
and ip6_route_check_nh to use fib6_lookup over rt6_lookup.
ip6_pol_route is a call to fib6_table_lookup and if successful a call
to fib6_select_path. From there the exception cache is searched for an
entry or a dst_entry is created to return to the caller. The exception
entry is not relevant for gateway validation, so what matters are the
calls to fib6_table_lookup and then fib6_select_path.
Similarly, rt6_lookup can be replaced with a call to fib6_lookup with
RT6_LOOKUP_F_IFACE set in flags. Again, the exception cache search is
not relevant, only the lookup with path selection. The primary difference
in the lookup paths is the use of rt6_select with fib6_lookup versus
rt6_device_match with rt6_lookup. When you remove complexities in the
rt6_select path, e.g.,
1. saddr is not set for gateway validation, so RT6_LOOKUP_F_HAS_SADDR
is not relevant
2. rt6_check_neigh is not called so that removes the RT6_NUD_FAIL_DO_RR
return and round-robin logic.
the code paths are believed to be equivalent for the given use case -
validate the gateway and optionally given the device. Furthermore, it
aligns the validation with onlink code path and the lookup path actually
used for rx and tx.
Adjust the users, ip6_route_check_nh_onlink and ip6_route_check_nh to
handle a fib6_info vs a rt6_info when performing validation checks.
Existing selftests fib-onlink-tests.sh and fib_tests.sh are used to
verify the changes.
