====================
net: phy: Rework linkmodes handling in a dedicated file
This is V5 of the phy_caps series. In a nutshell, this series reworks the way
we maintain the list of speed/duplex capablities for each linkmode so that we
no longer have multiple definition of these associations.
That will help making sure that when people add new linkmodes in
include/uapi/linux/ethtool.h, they don't have to update phylib and phylink as
well, making the process more straightforward and less error-prone.
It also generalises the phy_caps interface to be able to lookup linkmodes
from phy_interface_t, which is needed for the multi-port work I've been working
on for a while.
This V5 addresse Russell's and Paolo's reviews, namely :
- Error out when encountering an unknown SPEED_XXX setting
It prints an error and fails to initialize phylib. I've tested by
introducing a dummy 1.6T speed, I guess it's only a matter of time
before that actually happens :)
- Deal more gracefully with the fixed-link settings, keeping some level of
compatibility with what we had before by making sure we report a
single BaseT mode like before.
net: phylink: Use phy_caps to get an interface's capabilities and modes
Phylink has internal code to get the MAC capabilities of a given PHY
interface (what are the supported speed and duplex).
Extract that into phy_caps, but use the link_capa for conversion. Add an
internal phylink helper for the link caps -> mac caps conversion, and
use this in phylink_caps_to_linkmodes().
net: phylink: Convert capabilities to linkmodes using phy_caps
phylink_caps_to_linkmodes() is used to derive a list of linkmodes that
can be conceivably exposed using a given set of speeds and duplex
through phylink's MAC capabilities.
This list can be derived from the link_caps array in phy_caps, provided
we convert the MAC capabilities into a LINK_CAPA bitmask first.
Introduce an internal phylink helper phylink_caps_to_link_caps() to
convert from MAC capabilities into phy_caps, then phy_caps_linkmodes()
to do the link_caps -> linkmodes conversion.
This avoids having to update phylink for every new linkmode.
net: phylink: Add a mapping between MAC_CAPS and LINK_CAPS
phylink allows MAC drivers to report the capabilities in terms of speed,
duplex and pause support. This is done through a dedicated set of enum
values in the form of the MAC_ capabilities. They are very close to what
the LINK_CAPA_xxx can express, with the difference that LINK_CAPA don't
have any information about Pause/Asym Pause support.
To prepare converting phylink to using the phy_caps, add the mapping
between MAC capabilities and phy_caps. While doing so, we move the
phylink_caps_params array up a bit to simplify future commits.
net: phylink: Use phy_caps_lookup for fixed-link configuration
When phylink creates a fixed-link configuration, it finds a matching
linkmode to set as the advertised, lp_advertising and supported modes
based on the speed and duplex of the fixed link.
Use the newly introduced phy_caps_lookup to get these modes instead of
phy_lookup_settings(). This has the side effect that the matched
settings and configured linkmodes may now contain several linkmodes (the
intersection of supported linkmodes from the phylink settings and the
linkmodes that match speed/duplex) instead of the one from
phy_lookup_settings().
net: phy: phy_device: Use link_capabilities lookup for PHY aneg config
When configuring PHY advertising with autoneg disabled, we lookd for an
exact linkmode to advertise and configure for the requested Speed and
Duplex, specially at or over 1G.
Using phy_caps_lookup allows us to build a list of the supported
linkmodes at that speed that we can advertise instead of the first mode
that matches.
net: phy: phy_caps: Allow looking-up link caps based on speed and duplex
As the link_caps array is efficient for <speed,duplex> lookups,
implement a function for speed/duplex lookups that matches a given
mask. This replicates to some extent the phy_lookup_settings()
behaviour, matching full link_capabilities instead of a single linkmode.
phy.c's phy_santize_settings() and phylink's
phylink_ethtool_ksettings_set() performs such lookup using the
phy_settings table, but are only interested in the actual speed/duplex
that were matched, rathet than the individual linkmode.
Similar to phy_lookup_settings(), the newly introduced phy_caps_lookup()
will run through the link_caps[] array by descending speed/duplex order.
If the link_capabilities for a given <speed/duplex> tuple intersects the
passed linkmodes, we consider that a match.
Similar to phy_lookup_settings(), we also allow passing an 'exact'
boolean, allowing non-exact match. Here, we MUST always match the
linkmodes mask, but we allow matching on lower speed settings.
net: phy: phy_caps: Implement link_capabilities lookup by linkmode
In several occasions, phylib needs to lookup a set of matching speed and
duplex against a given linkmode set. Instead of relying on the
phy_settings array and thus iterate over the whole linkmodes list, use
the link_capabilities array to lookup these matches, as we aren't
interested in the actual link setting that matches but rather the speed
and duplex for that setting.
With the link_capabilities array, it's trivial to validate a given mask
againts a <speed, duplex> tuple. Create a helper for that purpose, and
use it to replace a phy_settings lookup in phy_check_valid();
net: phy: phy_caps: Move __set_linkmode_max_speed to phy_caps
Convert the __set_linkmode_max_speed to use the link_capabilities array.
This makes it easy to clamp the linkmodes to a given max speed.
Introduce a new helper phy_caps_linkmode_max_speed to replace the
previous one that used phy_settings.
Use the newly introduced link_capabilities array to derive the list of
possible speeds when given a combination of linkmodes. As
link_capabilities is indexed by speed, we don't have to iterate the
whole phy_settings array.
net: phy: Use an internal, searchable storage for the linkmodes
The canonical definition for all the link modes is in linux/ethtool.h,
which is complemented by the link_mode_params array stored in
net/ethtool/common.h . That array contains all the metadata about each
of these modes, including the Speed and Duplex information.
Phylib and phylink needs that information as well for internal
management of the link, which was done by duplicating that information
in locally-stored arrays and lookup functions. This makes it easy for
developpers adding new modes to forget modifying phylib and phylink
accordingly.
However, the link_mode_params array in net/ethtool/common.c is fairly
inefficient to search through, as it isn't sorted in any manner. Phylib
and phylink perform a lot of lookup operations, mostly to filter modes
by speed and/or duplex.
We therefore introduce the link_caps private array in phy_caps.c, that
indexes linkmodes in a more efficient manner. Each element associated a
tuple <speed, duplex> to a bitfield of all the linkmodes runs at these
speed/duplex.
We end-up with an array that's fairly short, easily addressable and that
it optimised for the typical use-cases of phylib/phylink.
That array is initialized at the same time as phylib. As the
link_mode_params array is part of the net stack, which phylink depends
on, it should always be accessible from phylib.
net: ethtool: Export the link_mode_params definitions
link_mode_params contains a lookup table of all 802.3 link modes that
are currently supported with structured data about each mode's speed,
duplex, number of lanes and mediums.
As a preparation for a port representation, export that table for the
rest of the net stack to use.

net: stmmac: remove redundant racy tear-down in stmmac_dvr_remove()
While the network device is registered, it is published to userspace,
and thus userspace can change its state. This means calling
functions such as stmmac_stop_all_dma() and stmmac_mac_set() are
racy.
Moreover, unregister_netdev() will unpublish the network device, and
then if appropriate call the .ndo_stop() method, which is
stmmac_release(). This will first call phylink_stop() which will
synchronously take the link down, resulting in stmmac_mac_link_down()
and stmmac_mac_set(, false) being called.
stmmac_release() will also call stmmac_stop_all_dma().
Consequently, neither of these two functions need to called prior
to unregister_netdev() as that will safely call paths that will
result in this work being done if necessary.
Remove these redundant racy calls.

net/smc: use the correct ndev to find pnetid by pnetid table
When using smc_pnet in SMC, it will only search the pnetid in the
base_ndev of the netdev hierarchy(both HW PNETID and User-defined
sw pnetid). This may not work for some scenarios when using SMC in
container on cloud environment.
In container, there have choices of different container network,
such as directly using host network, virtual network IPVLAN, veth,
etc. Different choices of container network have different netdev
hierarchy. Examples of netdev hierarchy show below. (eth0 and eth1
in host below is the netdev directly related to the physical device).

---------------------------------
netdev hierarchy if using veth
Due to some reasons, the eth1 in host is not RDMA attached netdevice,
pnetid is needed to map the eth1(in host) with RDMA device so that POD
can do SMC-R. Because the eth1(in host) is managed by CNI plugin(such
as Terway, network management plugin in container environment), and in
cloud environment the eth(in host) can dynamically be inserted by CNI
when POD create and dynamically be removed by CNI when POD destroy and
no POD related to the eth(in host) anymore. It is hard to config the
pnetid to the eth1(in host). But it is easy to config the pnetid to the
netdevice which can be seen in POD. When do SMC-R, both the container
directly using host network and the container using veth network can
successfully match the RDMA device, because the configured pnetid netdev
is a base_ndev. But the container using IPVLAN can not successfully
match the RDMA device and 0x03030000 fallback happens, because the
configured pnetid netdev is not a base_ndev. Additionally, if config
pnetid to the eth1(in host) also can not work for matching RDMA device
when using veth network and doing SMC-R in POD.
To resolve the problems list above, this patch extends to search user
-defined sw pnetid in the clc handshake ndev when no pnetid can be found
in the base_ndev, and the base_ndev take precedence over ndev for backward
compatibility. This patch also can unify the pnetid setup of different
network choices list above in container(Config user-defined sw pnetid in
the netdevice can be seen in POD).

net/mlx5: Bridge, fix the crash caused by LAG state check
When removing LAG device from bridge, NETDEV_CHANGEUPPER event is

false if one of PF is unloaded. In such case,
mlx5_esw_bridge_lag_rep_get() and its caller return NULL, instead of
the alive PF, and the flush is skipped.
Besides, the bridge fdb entry's lastuse is updated in mlx5 bridge

ignored in this case because the upper interface for bond is deleted,
and the entry will never be aged because lastuse is never updated.
To make things worse, as the entry is alive, mlx5 bridge workqueue
keeps sending that event, which is then handled by kernel bridge
notifier. It causes the following crash when accessing the passed bond
netdev which is already destroyed.

Revert "openvswitch: switch to per-action label counting in conntrack"
Currently, ovs_ct_set_labels() is only called for confirmed conntrack
entries (ct) within ovs_ct_commit(). However, if the conntrack entry
does not have the labels_ext extension, attempting to allocate it in
ovs_ct_get_conn_labels() for a confirmed entry triggers a warning in
nf_ct_ext_add():
WARN_ON(nf_ct_is_confirmed(ct));
This happens when the conntrack entry is created externally before OVS
increments net->ct.labels_used. The issue has become more likely since
commit fcb1aa5163b1 ("openvswitch: switch to per-action label counting
in conntrack"), which changed to use per-action label counting and
increment net->ct.labels_used when a flow with ct action is added.
Since there’s no straightforward way to fully resolve this issue at the
moment, this reverts the commit to avoid breaking existing use cases.
The actions length check is unreliable and produces different results
depending on the initial length of the provided netlink attribute and
the composition of the actual actions inside of it. For example, a
user can add 4088 empty clone() actions without triggering -EMSGSIZE,
on attempt to add 4089 such actions the operation will fail with the
-EMSGSIZE verdict. However, if another 16 KB of other actions will
be *appended* to the previous 4089 clone() actions, the check passes
and the flow is successfully installed into the openvswitch datapath.
The reason for a such a weird behavior is the way memory is allocated.
When ovs_flow_cmd_new() is invoked, it calls ovs_nla_copy_actions(),
that in turn calls nla_alloc_flow_actions() with either the actual
length of the user-provided actions or the MAX_ACTIONS_BUFSIZE. The
function adds the size of the sw_flow_actions structure and then the
actually allocated memory is rounded up to the closest power of two.
So, if the user-provided actions are larger than MAX_ACTIONS_BUFSIZE,
then MAX_ACTIONS_BUFSIZE + sizeof(*sfa) rounded up is 32K + 24 -> 64K.
Later, while copying individual actions, we look at ksize(), which is
64K, so this way the MAX_ACTIONS_BUFSIZE check is not actually
triggered and the user can easily allocate almost 64 KB of actions.
However, when the initial size is less than MAX_ACTIONS_BUFSIZE, but
the actions contain ones that require size increase while copying
(such as clone() or sample()), then the limit check will be performed
during the reserve_sfa_size() and the user will not be allowed to
create actions that yield more than 32 KB internally.
This is one part of the problem. The other part is that it's not
actually possible for the userspace application to know beforehand
if the particular set of actions will be rejected or not.
Certain actions require more space in the internal representation,
e.g. an empty clone() takes 4 bytes in the action list passed in by
the user, but it takes 12 bytes in the internal representation due
to an extra nested attribute, and some actions require less space in
the internal representations, e.g. set(tunnel(..)) normally takes
64+ bytes in the action list provided by the user, but only needs to
store a single pointer in the internal implementation, since all the
data is stored in the tunnel_info structure instead.
And the action size limit is applied to the internal representation,
not to the action list passed by the user. So, it's not possible for
the userpsace application to predict if the certain combination of
actions will be rejected or not, because it is not possible for it to
calculate how much space these actions will take in the internal
representation without knowing kernel internals.
All that is causing random failures in ovs-vswitchd in userspace and
inability to handle certain traffic patterns as a result. For example,
it is reported that adding a bit more than a 1100 VMs in an OpenStack
setup breaks the network due to OVS not being able to handle ARP
traffic anymore in some cases (it tries to install a proper datapath
flow, but the kernel rejects it with -EMSGSIZE, even though the action
list isn't actually that large.)
Kernel behavior must be consistent and predictable in order for the
userspace application to use it in a reasonable way. ovs-vswitchd has
a mechanism to re-direct parts of the traffic and partially handle it
in userspace if the required action list is oversized, but that doesn't
work properly if we can't actually tell if the action list is oversized
or not.
Solution for this is to check the size of the user-provided actions
instead of the internal representation. This commit just removes the
check from the internal part because there is already an implicit size
check imposed by the netlink protocol. The attribute can't be larger
than 64 KB. Realistically, we could reduce the limit to 32 KB, but
we'll be risking to break some existing setups that rely on the fact
that it's possible to create nearly 64 KB action lists today.
Vast majority of flows in real setups are below 100-ish bytes. So
removal of the limit will not change real memory consumption on the
system. The absolutely worst case scenario is if someone adds a flow
with 64 KB of empty clone() actions. That will yield a 192 KB in the
internal representation consuming 256 KB block of memory. However,
that list of actions is not meaningful and also a no-op. Real world
very large action lists (that can occur for a rare cases of BUM
traffic handling) are unlikely to contain a large number of clones and
will likely have a lot of tunnel attributes making the internal
representation comparable in size to the original action list.
So, it should be fine to just remove the limit.
Commit in the 'Fixes' tag is the first one that introduced the
difference between internal representation and the user-provided action
lists, but there were many more afterwards that lead to the situation
we have today.

gre: Fix regressions in IPv6 link-local address generation.
IPv6 link-local address generation has some special cases for GRE
devices. This has led to several regressions in the past, and some of
them are still not fixed. This series fixes the remaining problems,
like the ipv6.conf.<dev>.addr_gen_mode sysctl being ignored and the
router discovery process not being started (see details in patch 1).
To avoid any further regressions, patch 2 adds selftests covering
IPv4 and IPv6 gre/gretap devices with all combinations of currently
supported addr_gen_mode values.

selftests: Add IPv6 link-local address generation tests for GRE devices.
GRE devices have their special code for IPv6 link-local address
generation that has been the source of several regressions in the past.
Add selftest to check that all gre, ip6gre, gretap and ip6gretap get an
IPv6 link-link local address in accordance with the
net.ipv6.conf.<dev>.addr_gen_mode sysctl.

gre: Fix IPv6 link-local address generation.
Use addrconf_addr_gen() to generate IPv6 link-local addresses on GRE
devices in most cases and fall back to using add_v4_addrs() only in
case the GRE configuration is incompatible with addrconf_addr_gen().
GRE used to use addrconf_addr_gen() until commit e5dd729460ca
("ip/ip6_gre: use the same logic as SIT interfaces when computing v6LL
address") restricted this use to gretap and ip6gretap devices, and
created add_v4_addrs() (borrowed from SIT) for non-Ethernet GRE ones.
The original problem came when commit 9af28511be10 ("addrconf: refuse
isatap eui64 for INADDR_ANY") made __ipv6_isatap_ifid() fail when its
addr parameter was 0. The commit says that this would create an invalid
address, however, I couldn't find any RFC saying that the generated
interface identifier would be wrong. Anyway, since gre over IPv4
devices pass their local tunnel address to __ipv6_isatap_ifid(), that
commit broke their IPv6 link-local address generation when the local
address was unspecified.
Then commit e5dd729460ca ("ip/ip6_gre: use the same logic as SIT
interfaces when computing v6LL address") tried to fix that case by
defining add_v4_addrs() and calling it to generate the IPv6 link-local
address instead of using addrconf_addr_gen() (apart for gretap and
ip6gretap devices, which would still use the regular
addrconf_addr_gen(), since they have a MAC address).
That broke several use cases because add_v4_addrs() isn't properly
integrated into the rest of IPv6 Neighbor Discovery code. Several of
these shortcomings have been fixed over time, but add_v4_addrs()
remains broken on several aspects. In particular, it doesn't send any
Router Sollicitations, so the SLAAC process doesn't start until the
interface receives a Router Advertisement. Also, add_v4_addrs() mostly
ignores the address generation mode of the interface
(/proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/*/addr_gen_mode), thus breaking the
IN6_ADDR_GEN_MODE_RANDOM and IN6_ADDR_GEN_MODE_STABLE_PRIVACY cases.
Fix the situation by using add_v4_addrs() only in the specific scenario
where the normal method would fail. That is, for interfaces that have
all of the following characteristics:
* run over IPv4,
* transport IP packets directly, not Ethernet (that is, not gretap
interfaces),
* tunnel endpoint is INADDR_ANY (that is, 0),
* device address generation mode is EUI64.
In all other cases, revert back to the regular addrconf_addr_gen().
Also, remove the special case for ip6gre interfaces in add_v4_addrs(),
since ip6gre devices now always use addrconf_addr_gen() instead.
Add PRP specific function for handling duplicate
packets. This is needed because of potential
L2 802.1p prioritization done by network switches.
The L2 prioritization can re-order the PRP packets
from a node causing the existing implementation to
discard the frame(s) that have been received 'late'
because the sequence number is before the previous
received packet. This can happen if the node is
sending multiple frames back-to-back with different
priority.
netfilter: nft_exthdr: fix offset with ipv4_find_option()
There is an incorrect calculation in the offset variable which causes
the nft_skb_copy_to_reg() function to always return -EFAULT. Adding the
start variable is redundant. In the __ip_options_compile() function the
correct offset is specified when finding the function. There is no need
to add the size of the iphdr structure to the offset.

net: remove rtnl_lock from the callers of queue APIs
All drivers that use queue management APIs already depend on the netdev
lock. Ultimately, we want to have most of the paths that work with
specific netdev to be rtnl_lock-free (ethtool mostly in particular).
Queue API currently has a much smaller API surface, so start with
rtnl_lock from it:
- add mutex to each dmabuf binding (to replace rtnl_lock)
- move netdev lock management to the callers of netdev_rx_queue_restart
and drop rtnl_lock
====================
All drivers that use queue API are already converted to use
netdev instance lock. Move netdev instance lock management to
the netlink layer and drop rtnl_lock.

selftests: net: bump GRO timeout for gro/setup_veth
Commit 51bef03e1a71 ("selftests/net: deflake GRO tests") recently
switched to NAPI suspension, and lowered the timeout from 1ms to 100us.
This started causing flakes in netdev-run CI. Let's bump it to 200us.
In a quick test of a debug kernel I see failures with 100us, with 200us
in 5 runs I see 2 completely clean runs and 3 with a single retry
(GRO test will retry up to 5 times).
eth: bnxt: add missing netdev lock management to bnxt_dl_reload_up
bnxt_dl_reload_up is completely missing instance lock management
which can result in `devlink dev reload` leaving with instance
lock held. Add the missing calls.
Also add netdev_assert_locked to make it clear that the up() method
is running with the instance lock grabbed.
v2:
- add net/netdev_lock.h include to bnxt_devlink.c for netdev_assert_locked
netdev_lock_ops conditionally grabs instance lock when queue_mgmt_ops
is defined. However queue_mgmt_ops support is signaled via FW
so we can sometimes boot without queue_mgmt_ops being set.
This will result in bnxt running without instance lock which
the driver now heavily depends on. Set request_ops_lock to true
unconditionally to always request netdev instance lock.
All (error) paths that call dev_close are already holding instance lock,
so switch to netif_close to avoid the deadlock.
v2:
- add missing EXPORT_MODULE for netif_close

The get->num_services variable is an unsigned int which is controlled by

an int so the calculation can overflow.
Both "len" and "get->num_services" come from the user. This check is
just a sanity check to help the user and ensure they are using the API
correctly. An integer overflow here is not a big deal. This has no
