net: ravb: Use common defines for time stamping control
Instead of translating to/from driver specific flags for packet time
stamp control use the common flags directly. This simplifies the driver
as the translating code can be removed while at the same time making it
clear the flags are not flags written to hardware registers.
The change from a device specific bit-field track variable to the common
enum datatypes forces us to touch the ravb_rx_rcar_hwstamp() in a non
trivial way. To make this cleaner and easier to understand expand the
nested conditions.
Prepare for moving away from device specific bit-fields to track how to
do hardware Rx timestamping to using net common enums by breaking out
the timestamping to a helper function. This is done to create cleaner
code and prepare for easier changes improving the hardware timestapming.
The driver specific flags to control packet time stamps have all been
replaced by values from enum hwtstamp_tx_types and enum
hwtstamp_rx_filters. Remove the driver specific flags as there are no
more users.
net: rtsn: Use common defines for time stamping control
Instead of translating to/from driver specific flags for packet time
stamp control use the common flags directly. This simplifies the driver

clear the flags are not flags written to hardware registers.
One thing to note is that the bit-wise and check in rtsn_rx() of
RCAR_GEN4_RXTSTAMP_TYPE_V2_L2_EVENT is replaced with a not set check of
HWTSTAMP_FILTER_NONE. This is okay as the bit of device specific event
replaced was set for all modes except HWTSTAMP_FILTER_NONE.

The struct rcar_gen4_ptp_private provides two fields for convenience of
its users, tstamp_tx_ctrl and tstamp_rx_ctrl. These fields are not used
by the rcar_gen4_ptp driver itself but only by the drivers using it.
Upcoming work will enable the RAVB driver currently only supporting gPTP
on pre-Gen4 SoCs to use the Gen4 implementation as well. To facilitate
this the convenience of having these fields in struct
rcar_gen4_ptp_private becomes a problem as the RAVB driver already have
it's own driver specific fields for the same thing.
Move the fields from struct rcar_gen4_ptp_private to each driver using
the Gen4 gPTP clocks own private data structures. There is no functional
change.
The files rcar_gen4_ptp.{c,h} implements an abstraction of the gPTP
support implemented together with different other IP blocks. The first
device added which supported this was RSWITCH on R-Car S4.
While doing so the RSWITCH R-Car S4 specific offset was added to the
generic Gen4 gPTP header file. Move it to the RSWITCH driver to make it
clear it only applies to this driver.

net: dsa: lantiq_gswip: Add support for MaxLinear GSW1xx switch family
This patch series extends the existing lantiq_gswip DSA driver to
support the MaxLinear GSW1xx family of dedicated Ethernet switch ICs.
These switches are based on the same IP as the Lantiq/Intel GSWIP found
in VR9 and xRX MIPS router SoCs which are currently supported by the
lantiq_gswip driver, but they are dedicated ICs connected via MDIO
rather than built-in components of a SoC accessible via memory-mapped
I/O.
The series includes several improvements and refactoring to implement
support for GSW1xx switch ICs by reusing the existing lantiq_gswip
driver.
The GSW1xx family includes several variants:
- GSW120: 4 ports, 2 PHYs, RGMII & SGMII/2500Base-X
- GSW125: 4 ports, 2 PHYs, RGMII & SGMII/2500Base-X, industrial temperature
- GSW140: 6 ports, 4 PHYs, RGMII & SGMII/2500Base-X
- GSW141: 6 ports, 4 PHYs, RGMII & SGMII
- GSW145: 6 ports, 4 PHYs, RGMII & SGMII/2500Base-X, industrial temperature
Key features implemented:
- MDIO-based register access using regmap
- Support for SGMII/1000Base-X/2500Base-X SerDes interfaces
- Configurable RGMII delays via device tree properties
- Configurable RMII clock direction
- Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE) support

Patch 01 fixes a race condition that exists between expired fdb deletion

port's state has been changed to disabled which could lead to that
port's memory being used after it's been freed. The issue was reported

MST's static key which Ido spotted, we can have multiple bridges with MST
and a single bridge can erroneously disable it for all.
====================
As Ido pointed out, the static key usage in MST is buggy and should use
inc/dec instead of enable/disable because we can have multiple bridges
with MST enabled which means a single bridge can disable MST for all.
Use static_branch_inc/dec to avoid that. When destroying a bridge decrement

net: bridge: fix use-after-free due to MST port state bypass
syzbot reported[1] a use-after-free when deleting an expired fdb. It is
due to a race condition between learning still happening and a port being
deleted, after all its fdbs have been flushed. The port's state has been
toggled to disabled so no learning should happen at that time, but if we
have MST enabled, it will bypass the port's state, that together with VLAN
filtering disabled can lead to fdb learning at a time when it shouldn't
happen while the port is being deleted. VLAN filtering must be disabled
because we flush the port VLANs when it's being deleted which will stop
learning. This fix adds a check for the port's vlan group which is
initialized to NULL when the port is getting deleted, that avoids the port
state bypass. When MST is enabled there would be a minimal new overhead
in the fast-path because the port's vlan group pointer is cache-hot.

net: stmmac: socfpga: Add Agilex5 platform support and enhancements
This patch series adds support for the Agilex5 EMAC platform to the
dwmac-socfpga driver.
The series includes:
- Platform configuration for Agilex5 EMAC
- Enabling Time-Based Scheduling (TBS) for Tx queues 6 and 7
- Enabling TCP Segmentation Offload(TSO)
- Adding hardware-supported cross timestamping using the SMTG IP,
allowing precise synchronization between MAC and system time via
PTP_SYS_OFFSET_PRECISE.
====================
Cross timestamping is supported on Agilex5 platform with Synchronized
Multidrop Timestamp Gathering(SMTG) IP. The hardware cross-timestamp
result is made available the applications through the ioctl call
PTP_SYS_OFFSET_PRECISE, which inturn calls stmmac_getcrosststamp().
Device time is stored in the MAC Auxiliary register. The 64-bit System
time (ARM_ARCH_COUNTER) is stored in SMTG IP. SMTG IP is an MDIO device
with 0xC - 0xF MDIO register space holds 64-bit system time.
This commit is similar to following commit for Intel platforms:
Commit 341f67e424e5 ("net: stmmac: Add hardware supported cross-timestamp")
Agilex5 HPS EMAC uses the dwxgmac-3.10a IP, unlike previous socfpga
platforms which use dwmac1000 IP. Due to differences in platform
configuration, Agilex5 requires a distinct setup.
Introduce a setup_plat_dat() callback in socfpga_dwmac_ops to handle
platform-specific setup. This callback is invoked before
stmmac_dvr_probe() to ensure the platform data is correctly
configured. Also, implemented separate setup_plat_dat() callback for
current socfpga platforms and Agilex5.

MLX5E_SHAMPO_WQ_HEADER_PER_PAGE, clamp the number of headers per

for one WQE cover a full page.

This patch adds a special case for page sizes >= GRO_LEGACY_MAX_SIZE

the check is safe from fragment overflow because the hardware

two for such a large page size.

HW-GRO is broken on mlx5 for 64K page sizes. The patch in the fixes tag
didn't take into account larger page sizes when doing an align down

mapping header pages via WQE UMR. This breaks header-data split
and will result in the following syndrome:
Furthermore, the function that fills in WQE UMRs for the headers
(mlx5e_build_shampo_hd_umr()) only supports mapping page sizes that
fit in a single UMR WQE.
This patch goes back to the old non-aligned max_ksm_entries value and it
changes mlx5e_build_shampo_hd_umr() to support mapping a large page over
multiple UMR WQEs.
This means that mlx5e_build_shampo_hd_umr() can now leave a page only
partially mapped. The caller, mlx5e_alloc_rx_hd_mpwqe(), ensures that
there are enough UMR WQEs to cover complete pages by working on

netpoll: Fix deadlock in memory allocation under spinlock
Fix a AA deadlock in refill_skbs() where memory allocation while holding
skb_pool->lock can trigger a recursive lock acquisition attempt.
The deadlock scenario occurs when the system is under severe memory
pressure:
1. refill_skbs() acquires skb_pool->lock (spinlock)
2. alloc_skb() is called while holding the lock
3. Memory allocator fails and calls slab_out_of_memory()
4. This triggers printk() for the OOM warning
5. The console output path calls netpoll_send_udp()
6. netpoll_send_udp() attempts to acquire the same skb_pool->lock
7. Deadlock: the lock is already held by the same CPU
This bug was exposed by commit 248f6571fd4c51 ("netpoll: Optimize skb
refilling on critical path") which removed refill_skbs() from the
critical path (where nested printk was being deferred), letting nested
printk being called from inside refill_skbs()
Refactor refill_skbs() to never allocate memory while holding
the spinlock.
Another possible solution to fix this problem is protecting the
refill_skbs() from nested printks, basically calling
printk_deferred_{enter,exit}() in refill_skbs(), then, any nested
pr_warn() would be deferred.
I prefer this approach, given I _think_ it might be a good idea to move
the alloc_skb() from GFP_ATOMIC to GFP_KERNEL in the future, so, having
the alloc_skb() outside of the lock will be necessary step.
There is a possible TOCTOU issue when checking for the pool length, and
queueing the new allocated skb, but, this is not an issue, given that
an extra SKB in the pool is harmless and it will be eventually used.

Standardize the error handling by making the function return NULL on
all error conditions. The API is used in just the netcp_core.c so the
impact is limited.
Note, this change, in effect reverts commit 5b6cb43b4d62 ("net:
ethernet: ti: netcp_core: return error while dma channel open issue"),
but provides a less error prone implementation.

The historically fixed-size struct sockaddr is part of UAPI and embedded
in many existing structures. The kernel uses struct sockaddr extensively
within the kernel to represent arbitrarily sized sockaddr structures,
which caused problems with the compiler's ability to determine object
sizes correctly. The "temporary" solution was to make sockaddr explicitly
use a flexible array, but this causes problems for embedding struct
sockaddr in structures, where once again the compiler has to guess about
the size of such objects, and causes thousands of warnings under the
coming -Wflex-array-member-not-at-end warning.
Switching to sockaddr_storage internally everywhere wastes a lot of memory,
so we are left with needing two changes:
- introduction of an explicitly arbitrarily sized sockaddr struct
- switch struct sockaddr back to being fixed size
Doing the latter step requires all "arbitrarily sized" uses of struct
sockaddr to be replaced with the new struct from the first step.
So, introduce the new struct and do enough conversions that we can
switch sockaddr back to a fixed-size sa_data.

net: Convert struct sockaddr to fixed-size "sa_data[14]"
Revert struct sockaddr from flexible array to fixed 14-byte "sa_data",
to solve over 36,000 -Wflex-array-member-not-at-end warnings, since
struct sockaddr is embedded within many network structs.
With socket/proto sockaddr-based internal APIs switched to use struct
sockaddr_unsized, there should be no more uses of struct sockaddr that
depend on reading beyond the end of struct sockaddr::sa_data that might
trigger bounds checking.
Comparing an x86_64 "allyesconfig" vmlinux build before and after this
patch showed no new "ud1" instructions from CONFIG_UBSAN_BOUNDS nor any
new "field-spanning" memcpy CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE instrumentations.

virtio-net: fix received length check in big packets
Since commit 4959aebba8c0 ("virtio-net: use mtu size as buffer length
for big packets"), when guest gso is off, the allocated size for big
packets is not MAX_SKB_FRAGS * PAGE_SIZE anymore but depends on
negotiated MTU. The number of allocated frags for big packets is stored
in vi->big_packets_num_skbfrags.
Because the host announced buffer length can be malicious (e.g. the host
vhost_net driver's get_rx_bufs is modified to announce incorrect
length), we need a check in virtio_net receive path. Currently, the
check is not adapted to the new change which can lead to NULL page
pointer dereference in the below while loop when receiving length that
is larger than the allocated one.
This commit fixes the received length check corresponding to the new
change.

net: phy: remove fixed_phy_add and first its users
fixed_phy_add() has a number of problems/disadvantages:
- It uses phy address 0 w/o checking whether a fixed phy with this
address exists already.
- A subsequent call to fixed_phy_register() would also use phy address 0,
because fixed_phy_add() doesn't mark it as used.
- fixed_phy_add() is used from platform code, therefore requires that
fixed phy code is built-in.
fixed_phy_add() has only two users
- coldfire/5272, using fec
- bcm47xx, using b44
So migrate fec and b44 to use fixed_phy_register_100fd(), afterwards
remove usage of fixed_phy_add() from the two platforms, and eventually
remove fixed_phy_add().

Altera TSE cleanup to make sure everything is properly intialized
before registering the netdev.
When Altera TSE was converted to phylink, the PCS and phylink creation
were added after register_netdev(), which is wrong as this may race
with .ndo_open() once the netdev is registered.
This series makes so that we register the netdev once all resources are
cleanly initialised, that includes PCS and phylink creation as well as a
few other operations such as reading the IP version.
No errors were found in the wild, so this series doesn't target net, but
given that we fix some racy-ness, a point could be made to send that to
net.
This series doesn't introduce functional changes, however the internal
mii_bus for PCS configuration is renamed.
net: altera-tse: Init PCS and phylink before registering netdev
register_netdev() must be done only once all resources are ready, as
they may be used in .ndo_open() immediately upon registration.

takes care of that.

The PCS mdio bus must be created before registering the net_device. To

Note that this changes the bus name in /sys/bus/mdiobus
net: altera-tse: Warn on bad revision at probe time
Instead of reading the core revision at probe time, and print a warning

This allows getting rid of the "revision" private field, and also
prevent a potential race between reading the revision in .probe() after
netdev registration, and accessing that revision in .ndo_open().
By printing the warning after register_netdev(), we are sure that we
have a netdev name, and that we try to print the revision after having
read it from the internal registers.

ti: netcp: convert to ndo_hwtstamp callbacks
Convert TI NetCP driver to use ndo_hwtstamp_get()/ndo_hwtstamp_set()
callbacks. The logic is slightly changed, because I believe the original
logic was not really correct. Config reading part is using the very
first module to get the configuration instead of iterating over all of
them and keep the last one as the configuration is supposed to be identical
for all modules. HW timestamp config set path is now trying to configure
all modules, but in case of error from one module it adds extack
message. This way the configuration will be as synchronized as possible.
There are only 2 modules using netcp core infrastructure, and both use
the very same function to configure HW timestamping, so no actual
difference in behavior is expected.
