The RZ/G3S SMARC Module has 2 KSZ9131 PHYs. In this setup, the KSZ9131 PHY
is used with the ravb Ethernet driver. It has been discovered that when
bringing the Ethernet interface down/up continuously, e.g., with the
following sh script:
$ while :; do ifconfig eth0 down; ifconfig eth0 up; done
the link speed and duplex are wrong after interrupting the bring down/up
operation even though the Ethernet interface is up. To recover from this
state the following configuration sequence is necessary (executed
manually):
$ ifconfig eth0 down
$ ifconfig eth0 up
The behavior has been identified also on the Microchip SAMA7G5-EK board
which runs the macb driver and uses the same PHY.
The order of PHY-related operations in ravb_open() is as follows:
ravb_open() ->
ravb_phy_start() ->
ravb_phy_init() ->
of_phy_connect() ->
phy_connect_direct() ->
phy_attach_direct() ->
phy_init_hw() ->
phydev->drv->soft_reset()
phydev->drv->config_init()
phydev->drv->config_intr()
phy_resume()
kszphy_resume()
The order of PHY-related operations in ravb_close is as follows:
ravb_close() ->
phy_stop() ->
phy_suspend() ->
kszphy_suspend() ->
genphy_suspend()
// set BMCR_PDOWN bit in MII_BMCR
In genphy_suspend() setting the BMCR_PDWN bit in MII_BMCR switches the PHY
to Software Power-Down (SPD) mode (according to the KSZ9131 datasheet).
Thus, when opening the interface after it has been previously closed (via
ravb_close()), the phydev->drv->config_init() and
phydev->drv->config_intr() reach the KSZ9131 PHY driver via the
ksz9131_config_init() and kszphy_config_intr() functions.
KSZ9131 specifies that the MII management interface remains operational
during SPD (Software Power-Down), but (according to manual):
- Only access to the standard registers (0 through 31) is supported.
- Access to MMD address spaces other than MMD address space 1 is possible
if the spd_clock_gate_override bit is set.
- Access to MMD address space 1 is not possible.
The spd_clock_gate_override bit is not used in the KSZ9131 driver.
ksz9131_config_init() configures RGMII delay, pad skews and LEDs by
accessesing MMD registers other than those in address space 1.
The datasheet for the KSZ9131 does not specify what happens if registers
from an unsupported address space are accessed while the PHY is in SPD.
To fix the issue the .soft_reset method has been instantiated for KSZ9131,
too. This resets the PHY to the default state before doing any
configurations to it, thus switching it out of SPD.

The HW has the capability to check each frame if it is a PTP frame,
which domain it is, which ptp frame type it is, different ip address in
the frame. And if one of these checks fail then the frame is not
timestamp. Most of these checks were disabled except checking the field
minorVersionPTP inside the PTP header. Meaning that once a partner sends
a frame compliant to 8021AS which has minorVersionPTP set to 1, then the
frame was not timestamp because the HW expected by default a value of 0
in minorVersionPTP.
Fix this issue by removing this check so the userspace can decide on this.

amt driver uses skb->cb for storing tunnel information.
This job is worked before TC layer and then amt driver load tunnel info

So, its cb area should not be overwrapped with CB area used by TC.
In order to not use cb area used by TC, it skips the biggest cb
structure used by TC, which was qdisc_skb_cb.
But it's not anymore.
Currently, biggest structure of TC's CB is tc_skb_cb.
So, it should skip size of tc_skb_cb instead of qdisc_skb_cb.

====================
net: ethernet: ti: am65-cpsw: Allow for MTU values
The am65-cpsw-nuss driver has a fixed definition for the maximum ethernet
frame length of 1522 bytes (AM65_CPSW_MAX_PACKET_SIZE). This limits the switch
ports to only operate at a maximum MTU of 1500 bytes. When combining this CPSW
switch with a DSA switch connected to one of its ports this limitation shows up.
The extra 8 bytes the DSA subsystem adds internally to the ethernet frame
create resulting frames bigger than 1522 bytes (1518 for non VLAN + 8 for DSA
stuff) so they get dropped by the switch.
One of the issues with the the am65-cpsw-nuss driver is that the network device
max_mtu was being set to the same fixed value defined for the max total frame
length (1522 bytes). This makes the DSA subsystem believe that the MTU of the
interface can be set to 1508 bytes to make room for the extra 8 bytes of the DSA
headers. However, all packages created assuming the 1500 bytes payload get
dropped by the switch as oversized.
This series offers a solution to this problem. The max_mtu advertised on the
network device and the actual max frame size configured on the switch registers
are made consistent by letting the extra room needed for the ethernet headers
and the frame checksum (22 bytes including VLAN).

The value of AM65_CPSW_MAX_PACKET_SIZE represents the maximum length
of a received frame. This value is written to the register
AM65_CPSW_PORT_REG_RX_MAXLEN.
The maximum MTU configured on the network device should then leave
some room for the ethernet headers and frame check. Otherwise, if
the network interface is configured to its maximum mtu possible,
the frames will be larger than AM65_CPSW_MAX_PACKET_SIZE and will
get dropped as oversized.
The switch supports ethernet frame sizes between 64 and 2024 bytes
(including VLAN) as stated in the technical reference manual, so
define AM65_CPSW_MAX_PACKET_SIZE with that maximum size.

rxrpc normally has the Don't Fragment flag set on the UDP packets it
transmits, except when it has decided that DATA packets aren't getting
through - in which case it turns it off just for the DATA transmissions.
This can be a problem, however, for RESPONSE packets that convey
authentication and crypto data from the client to the server as ticket may
be larger than can fit in the MTU.
In such a case, rxrpc gets itself into an infinite loop as the sendmsg
returns an error (EMSGSIZE), which causes rxkad_send_response() to return
-EAGAIN - and the CHALLENGE packet is put back on the Rx queue to retry,
leading to the I/O thread endlessly attempting to perform the transmission.
Fix this by disabling DF on RESPONSE packets for now. The use of DF and
best data MTU determination needs reconsidering at some point in the
future.

After the blamed commit, we started doing this dereference for every
NETDEV_CHANGEUPPER and NETDEV_PRECHANGEUPPER event in the system.
static inline struct dsa_port *dsa_user_to_port(const struct net_device *dev)
{
struct dsa_user_priv *p = netdev_priv(dev);
return p->dp;
}
Which is obviously bogus, because not all net_devices have a netdev_priv()
of type struct dsa_user_priv. But struct dsa_user_priv is fairly small,
and p->dp means dereferencing 8 bytes starting with offset 16. Most
drivers allocate that much private memory anyway, making our access not
fault, and we discard the bogus data quickly afterwards, so this wasn't
caught.
But the dummy interface is somewhat special in that it calls
alloc_netdev() with a priv size of 0. So every netdev_priv() dereference
is invalid, and we get this when we emit a NETDEV_PRECHANGEUPPER event
with a VLAN as its new upper:
$ ip link add dummy1 type dummy
$ ip link add link dummy1 name dummy1.100 type vlan id 100

The rules to link selftests are:

> $(LINK.c) $^ $(LDLIBS) -o $@
>
> $(OUTPUT)/%_ipv6: %.c
> $(LINK.c) -DIPV6_TEST $^ $(LDLIBS) -o $@
The intel test robot uses only selftest's Makefile, not the top linux
Makefile:
> make W=1 O=/tmp/kselftest -C tools/testing/selftests
So, $(LINK.c) is determined by environment, rather than by kernel
Makefiles. On my machine (as well as other people that ran tcp-ao
selftests) GNU/Make implicit definition does use $(LDFLAGS):
> [dima@Mindolluin ~]$ make -p -f/dev/null | grep '^LINK.c\>'
> make: *** No targets. Stop.
> LINK.c = $(CC) $(CFLAGS) $(CPPFLAGS) $(LDFLAGS) $(TARGET_ARCH)
But, according to build robot report, it's not the case for them.
While I could just avoid using pre-defined $(LINK.c), it's also used by
selftests/lib.mk by default.
Anyways, according to GNU/Make documentation [1], I should have used
$(LDLIBS) instead of $(LDFLAGS) in the first place, so let's just do it:

Pull networking updates from Paolo Abeni:
"The most interesting thing is probably the networking structs
reorganization and a significant amount of changes is around
self-tests.
Core & protocols:
- Analyze and reorganize core networking structs (socks, netdev,
netns, mibs) to optimize cacheline consumption and set up build
time warnings to safeguard against future header changes
This improves TCP performances with many concurrent connections up
to 40%
- Add page-pool netlink-based introspection, exposing the memory
usage and recycling stats. This helps indentify bad PP users and
possible leaks
- Refine TCP/DCCP source port selection to no longer favor even
source port at connect() time when IP_LOCAL_PORT_RANGE is set. This
lowers the time taken by connect() for hosts having many active
connections to the same destination
- Refactor the TCP bind conflict code, shrinking related socket
structs
- Refactor TCP SYN-Cookie handling, as a preparation step to allow
arbitrary SYN-Cookie processing via eBPF
- Tune optmem_max for 0-copy usage, increasing the default value to
128KB and namespecifying it
- Allow coalescing for cloned skbs coming from page pools, improving
RX performances with some common configurations
- Reduce extension header parsing overhead at GRO time
- Add bridge MDB bulk deletion support, allowing user-space to
request the deletion of matching entries
- Reorder nftables struct members, to keep data accessed by the
datapath first
- Introduce TC block ports tracking and use. This allows supporting
multicast-like behavior at the TC layer
- Remove UAPI support for retired TC qdiscs (dsmark, CBQ and ATM) and
classifiers (RSVP and tcindex)
- More data-race annotations
- Extend the diag interface to dump TCP bound-only sockets
- Conditional notification of events for TC qdisc class and actions
- Support for WPAN dynamic associations with nearby devices, to form
a sub-network using a specific PAN ID
- Implement SMCv2.1 virtual ISM device support
- Add support for Batman-avd mulicast packet type
BPF:
- Tons of verifier improvements:
- BPF register bounds logic and range support along with a large
test suite
- log improvements
- complete precision tracking support for register spills
- track aligned STACK_ZERO cases as imprecise spilled registers.
This improves the verifier "instructions processed" metric from
single digit to 50-60% for some programs
- support for user's global BPF subprogram arguments with few
commonly requested annotations for a better developer
experience
- support tracking of BPF_JNE which helps cases when the compiler
transforms (unsigned) "a > 0" into "if a == 0 goto xxx" and the
like
- several fixes
- Add initial TX metadata implementation for AF_XDP with support in
mlx5 and stmmac drivers. Two types of offloads are supported right
now, that is, TX timestamp and TX checksum offload
- Fix kCFI bugs in BPF all forms of indirect calls from BPF into
kernel and from kernel into BPF work with CFI enabled. This allows
BPF to work with CONFIG_FINEIBT=y
- Change BPF verifier logic to validate global subprograms lazily
instead of unconditionally before the main program, so they can be
guarded using BPF CO-RE techniques
- Support uid/gid options when mounting bpffs
- Add a new kfunc which acquires the associated cgroup of a task
within a specific cgroup v1 hierarchy where the latter is
identified by its id
- Extend verifier to allow bpf_refcount_acquire() of a map value
field obtained via direct load which is a use-case needed in
sched_ext
- Add BPF link_info support for uprobe multi link along with bpftool
integration for the latter
- Support for VLAN tag in XDP hints
- Remove deprecated bpfilter kernel leftovers given the project is
developed in user-space (https://github.com/facebook/bpfilter)
Misc:
- Support for parellel TC self-tests execution
- Increase MPTCP self-tests coverage
- Updated the bridge documentation, including several so-far
undocumented features
- Convert all the net self-tests to run in unique netns, to avoid
random failures due to conflict and allow concurrent runs
- Add TCP-AO self-tests
- Add kunit tests for both cfg80211 and mac80211
- Autogenerate Netlink families documentation from YAML spec
- Add yml-gen support for fixed headers and recursive nests, the tool
can now generate user-space code for all genetlink families for
which we have specs
- A bunch of additional module descriptions fixes
- Catch incorrect freeing of pages belonging to a page pool
Driver API:
- Rust abstractions for network PHY drivers; do not cover yet the
full C API, but already allow implementing functional PHY drivers
in rust
- Introduce queue and NAPI support in the netdev Netlink interface,
allowing complete access to the device <> NAPIs <> queues
relationship
- Introduce notifications filtering for devlink to allow control
application scale to thousands of instances
- Improve PHY validation, requesting rate matching information for
each ethtool link mode supported by both the PHY and host
- Add support for ethtool symmetric-xor RSS hash
- ACPI based Wifi band RFI (WBRF) mitigation feature for the AMD
platform
- Expose pin fractional frequency offset value over new DPLL generic
netlink attribute
- Convert older drivers to platform remove callback returning void
- Add support for PHY package MMD read/write

Pull s390 updates from Alexander Gordeev:
- Add machine variable capacity information to /proc/sysinfo.
- Limit the waste of page tables and always align vmalloc area size and
base address on segment boundary.
- Fix a memory leak when an attempt to register interruption sub class
(ISC) for the adjunct-processor (AP) guest failed.
- Reset response code AP_RESPONSE_INVALID_GISA to understandable by
guest AP_RESPONSE_INVALID_ADDRESS in response to a failed
interruption sub class (ISC) registration attempt.
- Improve reaction to adjunct-processor (AP)
AP_RESPONSE_OTHERWISE_CHANGED response code when enabling interrupts
on behalf of a guest.
- Fix incorrect sysfs 'status' attribute of adjunct-processor (AP)
queue device bound to the vfio_ap device driver when the mediated
device is attached to a guest, but the queue device is not passed
through.
- Rework struct ap_card to hold the whole adjunct-processor (AP) card
hardware information. As result, all the ugly bit checks are replaced
by simple evaluations of the required bit fields.
- Improve handling of some weird scenarios between service element (SE)
host and SE guest with adjunct-processor (AP) pass-through support.
- Change local_ctl_set_bit() and local_ctl_clear_bit() so they return
the previous value of the to be changed control register. This is
useful if a bit is only changed temporarily and the previous content
needs to be restored.
- The kernel starts with machine checks disabled and is expected to
enable it once trap_init() is called. However the implementation
allows machine checks early. Consistently enable it in trap_init()
only.
- local_mcck_disable() and local_mcck_enable() assume that machine
checks are always enabled. Instead implement and use
local_mcck_save() and local_mcck_restore() to disable machine checks
and restore the previous state.
- Modification of floating point control (FPC) register of a traced
process using ptrace interface may lead to corruption of the FPC
register of the tracing process. Fix this.
- kvm_arch_vcpu_ioctl_set_fpu() allows to set the floating point
control (FPC) register in vCPU, but may lead to corruption of the FPC
register of the host process. Fix this.
- Use READ_ONCE() to read a vCPU floating point register value from the
memory mapped area. This avoids that, depending on code generation, a
different value is tested for validity than the one that is used.
- Get rid of test_fp_ctl(), since it is quite subtle to use it
correctly. Instead copy a new floating point control register value
into its save area and test the validity of the new value when
loading it.
- Remove superfluous save_fpu_regs() call.
- Remove s390 support for ARCH_WANTS_DYNAMIC_TASK_STRUCT. All machines
provide the vector facility since many years and the need to make the
task structure size dependent on the vector facility does not exist.
- Remove the "novx" kernel command line option, as the vector code runs
without any problems since many years.
- Add the vector facility to the z13 architecture level set (ALS). All
hypervisors support the vector facility since many years. This allows
compile time optimizations of the kernel.
- Get rid of MACHINE_HAS_VX and replace it with cpu_has_vx(). As
result, the compiled code will have less runtime checks and less
code.
- Convert pgste_get_lock() and pgste_set_unlock() ASM inlines to C.
- Convert the struct subchannel spinlock from pointer to member.

Pull sysctl updates from Luis Chamberlain:
"To help make the move of sysctls out of kernel/sysctl.c not incur a
size penalty sysctl has been changed to allow us to not require the
sentinel, the final empty element on the sysctl array. Joel Granados
has been doing all this work.
In the v6.6 kernel we got the major infrastructure changes required to
support this. For v6.7 we had all arch/ and drivers/ modified to
remove the sentinel. For v6.8-rc1 we get a few more updates for fs/
directory only.
The kernel/ directory is left but we'll save that for v6.9-rc1 as
those patches are still being reviewed. After that we then can expect
also the removal of the no longer needed check for procname == NULL.
Let us recap the purpose of this work:
- this helps reduce the overall build time size of the kernel and run
time memory consumed by the kernel by about ~64 bytes per array
- the extra 64-byte penalty is no longer inncurred now when we move
sysctls out from kernel/sysctl.c to their own files
Thomas Weißschuh also sent a few cleanups, for v6.9-rc1 we expect to
see further work by Thomas Weißschuh with the constificatin of the
struct ctl_table.
Due to Joel Granados's work, and to help bring in new blood, I have
suggested for him to become a maintainer and he's accepted. So for
v6.9-rc1 I look forward to seeing him sent you a pull request for
further sysctl changes. This also removes Iurii Zaikin as a maintainer

all"

Pull bcachefs updates from Kent Overstreet:
- btree write buffer rewrite: instead of adding keys to the btree write
buffer at transaction commit time, we now journal them with a
different journal entry type and copy them from the journal to the
write buffer just prior to journal write.
This reduces the number of atomic operations on shared cachelines in
the transaction commit path and is a signicant performance
improvement on some workloads: multithreaded 4k random writes went
from ~650k iops to ~850k iops.
- Bring back optimistic spinning for six locks: the new implementation
doesn't use osq locks; instead we add to the lock waitlist as normal,
and then spin on the lock_acquired bit in the waitlist entry, _not_
the lock itself.
- New ioctls:
- BCH_IOCTL_DEV_USAGE_V2, which allows for new data types
- BCH_IOCTL_OFFLINE_FSCK, which runs the kernel implementation of
fsck but without mounting: useful for transparently using the
kernel version of fsck from 'bcachefs fsck' when the kernel
version is a better match for the on disk filesystem.
- BCH_IOCTL_ONLINE_FSCK: online fsck. Not all passes are supported
yet, but the passes that are supported are fully featured - errors
may be corrected as normal.
The new ioctls use the new 'thread_with_file' abstraction for kicking
off a kthread that's tied to a file descriptor returned to userspace
via the ioctl.
- btree_paths within a btree_trans are now dynamically growable,
instead of being limited to 64. This is important for the
check_directory_structure phase of fsck, and also fixes some issues
we were having with btree path overflow in the reflink btree.
- Trigger refactoring; prep work for the upcoming disk space accounting
rewrite
- Numerous bugfixes :)

Suppose we issue two FITRIM ioctls for ranges [0,15] and [16,31] with
mininum length of trimmed range set to 8 blocks. If we have say a range of
blocks 10-22 free, this range will not be trimmed because it straddles the
boundary of the two FITRIM ranges and neither part is big enough. This is a
bit surprising to some users that call FITRIM on smaller ranges of blocks
to limit impact on the system. Also XFS trims all free space extents that
overlap with the specified range so we are inconsistent among filesystems.
Let's change ext4_try_to_trim_range() to consider for trimming the whole
free space extent that straddles the end of specified range, not just the
part of it within the range.

Currently in case the goal length is a multiple of stripe size we use
ext4_mb_scan_aligned() to find the stripe size aligned physical blocks.
In case we are not able to find any, we again go back to calling
ext4_mb_choose_next_group() to search for a different suitable block
group. However, since the linear search always begins from the start,
most of the times we end up with the same BG and the cycle continues.
With large fliesystems, the CPU can be stuck in this loop for hours
which can slow down the whole system. Hence, until we figure out a
better way to continue the search (rather than starting from beginning)
in ext4_mb_choose_next_group(), lets just fallback to
ext4_mb_complex_scan_group() in case aligned scan fails, as it is much
more likely to find the needed blocks.

The ext4 filesystem tracks the trim status of blocks at the group
level. When an entire group has been trimmed then it is marked as
such and subsequent trim invocations with the same minimum trim size
will not be attempted on that group unless it is marked as able to be
trimmed again such as when a block is freed.
Currently the last group can't be marked as trimmed due to incorrect
logic in ext4_last_grp_cluster(). ext4_last_grp_cluster() is supposed
to return the zero based index of the last cluster in a group. This is
then used by ext4_try_to_trim_range() to determine if the trim
operation spans the entire group and as such if the trim status of the
group should be recorded.
ext4_last_grp_cluster() takes a 0 based group index, thus the valid
values for grp are 0..(ext4_get_groups_count - 1). Any group index
less than (ext4_get_groups_count - 1) is not the last group and must
have EXT4_CLUSTERS_PER_GROUP(sb) clusters. For the last group we need
to calculate the number of clusters based on the number of blocks in
the group. Finally subtract 1 from the number of clusters as zero
based indexing is expected. Rearrange the function slightly to make
it clear what we are calculating and returning.
Reproducer:
// Create file system where the last group has fewer blocks than
// blocks per group
$ mkfs.ext4 -b 4096 -g 8192 /dev/nvme0n1 8191
$ mount /dev/nvme0n1 /mnt
Before Patch:
$ fstrim -v /mnt
/mnt: 25.9 MiB (27156480 bytes) trimmed
// Group not marked as trimmed so second invocation still discards blocks
$ fstrim -v /mnt
/mnt: 25.9 MiB (27156480 bytes) trimmed
After Patch:
fstrim -v /mnt
/mnt: 25.9 MiB (27156480 bytes) trimmed
// Group marked as trimmed so second invocation DOESN'T discard any blocks
fstrim -v /mnt
/mnt: 0 B (0 bytes) trimmed
