Marvell's PPv2 controller has a Packet Header parser, which uses a
fixed-size TCAM array of filter entries.
The mvpp2 driver reserves some ranges among the 256 TCAM entries to
perform MAC and VID filtering. The rest of the TCAM ids are freely usable
for other features, such as IPv4 proto matching.
This commit fixes the MVPP2_PE_LAST_FREE_TID define that sets the end of
the "free range", which included the MAC range. This could therefore allow
some other features to use entries dedicated to MAC filtering,
lowering the number of unicast/multicast addresses that could be allowed
before switching to promiscuous mode.

sfc: ARFS fixes
Three issues introduced by my recent asynchronous filter handling changes:
1. The old filter_rfs_insert would replace a matching filter of equal
priority; we need to pass the appropriate argument to filter_insert to
make it do the same.
2. We're lying to the kernel with our return value from ndo_rx_flow_steer,
so we need to lie consistently when calling rps_may_expire_flow. This
is only a partial fix, as the lie still prevents us from steering
multiple flows with the same ID to different queues; a proper fix that
stops us lying at all will hopefully follow later.
3. It's possible to cause the kernel to hammer ndo_rx_flow_steer very
hard, so make sure we don't build up too huge a backlog of workitems.
Possibly it would be better to fix#3 on the kernel side; I have a patch
which I think does that but it's not a regression in 4.17 so isn't 'net'
material.
There's also the issue that we come up in the bad configuration that
triggers #3 by default, but that too is a problem for another time.
====================
Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
A misconfigured system (e.g. with all interrupts affinitised to all CPUs)
may produce a storm of ARFS steering events. With the existing sfc ARFS
implementation, that could create a backlog of workitems that grinds the
system to a halt. To prevent this, limit the number of workitems that
may be in flight for a given SFC device to 8 (EFX_RPS_MAX_IN_FLIGHT), and
return EBUSY from our ndo_rx_flow_steer method if the limit is reached.
Given this limit, also store the workitems in an array of slots within the
struct efx_nic, rather than dynamically allocating for each request.
The limit should not negatively impact performance, because it is only
likely to be hit in cases where ARFS will be ineffective anyway.

When we inserted an ARFS filter for ndo_rx_flow_steer(), we didn't know

rely on the flow_id to identify what we're talking about.

Use l2tp_tunnel_get_nth() instead of l2tp_tunnel_find_nth(), to be safe

Unlike sessions, we can't drop the reference held on tunnels in
pppol2tp_seq_show(). Tunnels are reused across several calls to
pppol2tp_seq_start() when iterating over sessions. These iterations
need the tunnel for accessing the next session. Therefore the only safe
moment for dropping the reference is just before searching for the next
tunnel.
Normally, the last invocation of pppol2tp_next_tunnel() doesn't find
any new tunnel, so it drops the last tunnel without taking any new
reference. However, in case of error, pppol2tp_seq_stop() is called
directly, so we have to drop the reference there.

If a new frame arrives after the worker thread has read out the time

stamp.

nfp: improve signal handing on FW waits and flower control message processing
The first part of this set aims to improve handling of interrupted
waits. Patch 1 makes waiting for management FW responses
uninterruptible while patch 2 adds a message when signal arrives
while waiting for an NFP mutex. We can't interrupt execution of
FW commands so uninterruptible sleep seems reasonable there.
Exiting a wait for a mutex should be clean and have no side affects
so we are allowing to abort it. Note that both waits have rather
large timeouts (tens of seconds).
Patches 3 and 4 improve flower offload operation under heavy load.
Currently there is no cap on the number of queued FW notifications.
Some of the notifications have to be processed from a workqueue
which may lead to very large number of messages getting queued
if workqueue never gets a chance to run. Pieter puts a limit
on number of queued messages, tries to drop some messages we ignore
without queuing and process more important messages first.

splitting the list into a separate high and low priority list we can

that gets processed, this however has no functional impact. Previously
there was no limit on the number of messages allowed on the queue, this

__strp_recv also calculates strp->need_bytes using stm->accum_len before
stm->accum_len has been incremented by cand_len. This can cause
strp->need_bytes to be equal to the full length of the message instead
of the full length minus the accumulated length. This, in turn, causes
strp_data_ready to return early, even when there is sufficient data to

There is a bug in handling the possible return codes from sending the
login CRQ. The current code treats any non-success return value,
minus failure to send the crq and a timeout waiting for a login response,
as a need to re-send the login CRQ. This can put the drive in an
infinite loop of trying to login when getting return values other
that a partial success such as a return code of aborted. For these
scenarios the login will not ever succeed at this point and the
driver would need to be reset again.
To resolve this loop trying to login is updated to only retry the
login if the driver gets a return code of a partial success. Other
return codes are treated as an error and the driver returns an error
from ibmvnic_login().
To avoid infinite looping in the partial success return cases, the
number of retries is capped at the maximum number of supported
queues. This value was chosen because the driver does a renegotiation
of capabilities which sets the number of queues possible and allows
the driver to attempt a login for possible value for the number
of queues supported.

When a topology subscription is created, we may encounter (or KASAN
may provoke) a failure to create a corresponding service instance in
the binding table. Instead of letting the tipc_nametbl_subscribe()
report the failure back to the caller, the function just makes a warning
printout and returns, without incrementing the subscription reference
counter as expected by the caller.
This makes the caller believe that the subscription was successful, so
it will at a later moment try to unsubscribe the item. This involves
a sub_put() call. Since the reference counter never was incremented
in the first place, we get a premature delete of the subscription item,
followed by a "use-after-free" warning.
We fix this by adding a return value to tipc_nametbl_subscribe() and
make the caller aware of the failure to subscribe.
This bug seems to always have been around, but this fix only applies
back to the commit shown below. Given the low risk of this happening
we believe this to be sufficient.

This series provides a pessimistic implementation of that behavior for

weaker than rmb()/wmb(), and they are advised to override the new
default for better performance.
For inb()/outb(), the same barriers are used, but architectures might
want to add another barrier to outb() here if that can guarantee

Pull more power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"These include one big-ticket item which is the rework of the idle loop
in order to prevent CPUs from spending too much time in shallow idle
states. It reduces idle power on some systems by 10% or more and may
improve performance of workloads in which the idle loop overhead
matters. This has been in the works for several weeks and it has been
tested and reviewed quite thoroughly.
Also included are changes that finalize the cpufreq cleanup moving
frequency table validation from drivers to the core, a few fixes and
cleanups of cpufreq drivers, a cpuidle documentation update and a PM
QoS core update to mark the expected switch fall-throughs in it.
Specifics:
- Rework the idle loop in order to prevent CPUs from spending too
much time in shallow idle states by making it stop the scheduler
tick before putting the CPU into an idle state only if the idle
duration predicted by the idle governor is long enough.
That required the code to be reordered to invoke the idle governor
before stopping the tick, among other things (Rafael Wysocki,
Frederic Weisbecker, Arnd Bergmann).
- Add the missing description of the residency sysfs attribute to the
cpuidle documentation (Prashanth Prakash).
- Finalize the cpufreq cleanup moving frequency table validation from
drivers to the core (Viresh Kumar).
- Fix a clock leak regression in the armada-37xx cpufreq driver
(Gregory Clement).
- Fix the initialization of the CPU performance data structures for
shared policies in the CPPC cpufreq driver (Shunyong Yang).
- Clean up the ti-cpufreq, intel_pstate and CPPC cpufreq drivers a
bit (Viresh Kumar, Rafael Wysocki).
- Mark the expected switch fall-throughs in the PM QoS core (Gustavo
Silva)"

Pull ktest updates from Steven Rostedt:
"These commits have either been sitting in my INBOX or have been in my
local tree for some time. I need to push them upstream:
- Separate out config-bisect.pl from ktest.pl.
This allows users to do config bisects without full ktest setup.
- Email on status change.
Allow the user to be emailed on test start, finish, failure, etc.
- Other small fixes and enhancements"
