This series continues the rework of the KSZ driver initiated by a previous
series (see [1]), following the discussion we had here [2].
The KSZ driver got way too convoluted over time because it uses a common
framework to handle more than 20 switches split in 5 families (see below
table)
The previous series ([1]) replaced the unique dsa_swicth_ops struct used
by all the KSZ families with one dsa_switch_ops struct for each family.
These dsa_switch_ops structs still rely on common functions that redirect
the calls to ksz_dev_ops operations which are custom to each switch
family. Many of hese ksz_dev_ops callbacks have a direct equivalent in the
struct dsa_switch_ops. This series directly connects the implementations of
these ksz_dev_ops operations to the relevant dsa_switch_ops attribute
to get rid of one unnecessary level of indirection.
On top of this on-going rework I added PTP and periodic output support for
the KSZ8463 (which was my first goal). There are more than 60 patches for
all this so this series will be followed by several others and if you
want to see the full picture we can check my github ([3]).
I haven't finished yet to group all the patches into meaningful series
but here is more or less what I plan to do next:
- A series will split again some operations to get rid of the
if (is_kszXYZ) branches.
- Maybe another series will be needed to completely move out of
ksz_common.c everything that isn't truly common to all the switches
- A series will add PTP support for the KSZ8463
- A final series will add periodic output support for the KSZ8463
FYI, I only have a KSZ8463 so, unfortunately, I can't test other switches.

ARCnet: remove outdated drivers and information and unused code; small cleanups and documentation improvements
This patch series mainly removes the ISA and PCMCIA ARCnet drivers and
documentation for them and hardware they supported. While ARCnet is still
used in industrial environments, and cards are still manufactured,
it is unlikely anyone is still using it with ISA and PCMCIA cards.
Removing these drivers reduces future maintenance burden.
While updating the ARCnet documentation to remove references to the removed
drivers, I noticed that it contained thousands of lines of outdated and
irrelevant information (much of it so outdated that it would not even work
on modern kernels). I took the opportunity to remove this information
and improve the writing style slightly.
I noticed that the BUS_ALIGN macro was always defined to 1, which meant
that the custom arcnet_in/out/read/write* I/O macros were unnecessary.
I expanded and removed them to make the code more straightforwards.
I also corrected some typos and comments.
====================
When compiling the com20020-pci driver with W=1, I received the
following warning:
drivers/net/arcnet/com20020-pci.c:224:71: warning: ‘%d’ directive
output may be truncated writing between 1 and 11 bytes into a region of
size between 10 and 11 [-Wformat-truncation=]
224 | snprintf(dev->name, sizeof(dev->name), "arc%d-%d", dev->dev_id, i);
In reality, this does not represent a problem, because i is bounded by
the .devcount field in struct com20020_pci_card_info, which is
statically defined for each card and very small. Quiet the invalid
warning by changing the type of i and the .devcount field to be
narrower.
The ARCnet documentation contains a lot of outdated and irrelevant
information (such as changes in decades-old driver versions and
messages from a former maintainer) and has some writing style issues.
Remove this unnecessary information and improve the writing style. Also
remove links to pages that no longer exist.
Now that the BUS_ALIGN variable has been removed, the
arcnet_in/out/read/write* macros behave identically to the functions
they wrap. Expand them and remove their definitions to make the code
easier to maintain.
net: arcnet: remove code depending on nonexistent config option
The CONFIG_SA1100_CT6001 option has never existed in the kernel. Remove
code in arcdevice.h referring to it. This allows the
arcnet_(in|out)(s|)b macros to be simplified by removing the BUS_ALIGN
macro.
net: arcnet: remove ISA and PCMCIA support; modernize documentation
While ARCnet is still used in industrial environments, and cards are
still manufactured, it is unlikely anyone is still using it with ISA
and PCMCIA cards. Reduce future maintenance burden by removing all ISA
and PCMCIA ARCnet drivers and documentation related to them. Update
instructions for loading modules and passing parameters to work on
modern kernels and with the com20020_pci driver. Also take the
opportunity to document the rest of the module parameters, correct a
file path in Documentation/networking/arcnet.rst, and change a
reference to /etc/rc.inet1, which no longer exists, to refer to
ifconfig.
net: arcnet: com20020: remove misleading references to multicast
ARCnet does not support multicast, only unicast and broadcast. In spite
of this, the com20020 driver contains several references to multicast

implemented. Adjust the comment to make the lack of multicast support
clear and rename com20020_set_mc_list to com20020_set_rx_mode.

selftests: tls: use ASSERT_GE in test_mutliproc
In test_mutliproc(), when send() or recv() returns an error (e.g.,
-1), the test continues to execute the remaining code and fails
repeatedly due to using EXPECT_GE.
For example, if a TLS connection is broken and recv() returns -1,
EXPECT_GE(res, 0) records a failure but does not stop the test.
The test then proceeds with left -= res (where res = -1), causing
left to increase unexpectedly, and the loop continues indefinitely.
This results in a massive number of identical failure messages:
# tls.c:1686:mutliproc_sendpage_writers:Expected res (-1) >= 0 (0)
# tls.c:1686:mutliproc_sendpage_writers:Expected res (-1) >= 0 (0)
... (hundreds of identical failures)
Fix this by replacing EXPECT_GE with ASSERT_GE. When send() or recv()
fails, ASSERT_GE immediately aborts the current test, preventing
the subsequent undefined behavior and endless failure messages.

net: convert atm/xdp/af_iucv/l2tp_ppp/rxrpc/tipc to getsockopt_iter
This series continues the conversion of the remaining proto_ops getsockopt
callbacks to the new getsockopt_iter callback introduced in commit 67fab22a7adc
("net: add getsockopt_iter callback to proto_ops").
The new callback takes a sockopt_t — a type-safe wrapper around iov_iter
plus an optlen field — instead of raw __user pointers. This:
- Replaces (char __user *optval, int __user *optlen) with sockopt_t *opt
- Reads the input buffer size from opt->optlen instead of get_user()
- Writes the option value via copy_to_iter() instead of copy_to_user()
- Reports the returned length via opt->optlen instead of put_user(),
independently of the bytes copied through the iter
Each conversion is a behaviour-preserving and code-style-preserving refactor;
no big changes being introduced, even when the code looks weird.

these packets being accounted so that parent's qlen notify callback was

Fix the tests by adding the qdiscs to ifb instead and making it see
mirred packets that came from scapy. That way the packets are accounted
in the memory limit and the parent's qlen notify callback is still
executed.

Pull ring-buffer fixes from Steven Rostedt:
- Fix reporting MISSED EVENTS in trace iterator
When the "trace" file is read with tracing enabled, if the writer
were to pass the iterator reader, it resets, sets a "missed_events"
flag and continues. The tracing output checks for missed events and
if there are some, it prints out "[LOST EVENTS]" to let the user know
events were dropped.
But the clearing of the missed_events happened when the tracing
system queried the ring buffer iterator about missed events. This was
premature as the ring buffer is per CPU, and the tracing code reads
all the CPU buffers and checks for missed events when it is read. If
the CPU iterator that had missed events isn't printed next, the
output for the LOST EVENTS is lost.
Clear the missed_events flag when the iterator moves to the next
event and not when the missed_events flag is queried. Also clear it
on reset.
- Flush and stop the persistent ring buffer on panic
On panic the persistent ring buffer is used to debug what caused the
panic. But on some architectures, it requires flushing the memory
from cache, otherwise, the ring buffer persistent memory may not have
the last events and this could also cause the ring buffer to be
corrupted on the next boot.
- Fix nr_subbufs initialization in simple_ring_buffer_init_mm
The remote simple ring buffer meta data nr_subbufs is initialized too
early and gets cleared later on, making it zero and not reflect the
actual number of sub-buffers.
- Fix unload_page for simple_ring_buffer init rollback
On error, the pages loaded need to be unloaded. To unload a page it
is expected that: page = load_page(va); -> unload_page(page). But the
code was doing: unload_page(va) and not unload_page(page).
- Create output file from cmd_check_undefined
The check for undefined symbols checks if the file *.o.checked exists
and if so it skips doing the work. But the *.o.checked file never was
created making every build do the work even when it was already done
previously.

net: enetc: SR-IOV robustness and security fixes
This patch series addresses a number of robustness, security, and
correctness issues in the ENETC driver's SR-IOV subsystem, focusing
primarily on the VF-to-PF mailbox communication path.
The series can be grouped into the following categories:
1. DoS and security fixes:
- Prevent an unbounded loop DoS in the VF-to-PF message handler,
which could be triggered by a malicious or misbehaving VF.
- Fix a TOCTOU (Time-of-Check-Time-of-Use) race and add proper
validation of VF MAC addresses to prevent spoofing or invalid
configuration from being applied.
2. Race condition fixes:
- Fix a race condition in VF MAC address configuration that could
lead to inconsistent state between the VF request and PF
application.
- Fix a race condition during SR-IOV teardown that could cause
VF->PF mailbox operations to time out, resulting in unnecessary
errors during shutdown.
3. Memory safety fixes:
- Fix a DMA write to freed memory in enetc_msg_free_mbx(), which
could cause silent memory corruption or system instability.
4. Error handling and initialization fixes:
- Fix missing error code propagation when pf->vf_state allocation
fails, ensuring callers receive a proper errno instead of
succeeding silently.
- Fix incorrect mailbox message status values returned to VFs,
which could cause VFs to misinterpret PF responses.
- Fix initialization order to prevent the use of uninitialized
resources during driver probe, which could cause undefined
behavior on certain configurations.
5. Diagnostics improvement:
- Add rate limiting to VF mailbox error messages to prevent log
flooding in the presence of a misbehaving VF.
These fixes improve the overall stability and security of the ENETC
SR-IOV implementation, particularly in multi-tenant environments where
VFs may be assigned to untrusted guests.

net: enetc: avoid VF->PF mailbox timeout during SR-IOV teardown
During SR-IOV teardown, enetc_msg_psi_free() disables the MR interrupt
before pci_disable_sriov() removes the VFs. If a VF sends a mailbox
message during this window, the PF cannot receive it, causing the VF to
timeout waiting for a reply.
Since the timeout occurs during SR-IOV teardown when the VF is about to
be removed anyway, it has no functional impact on operation. However,
more messages will be added in the future, some visible error logs may
confuse users. So fix it by calling pci_disable_sriov() first to remove
all VFs, then safely clean up the mailbox resources. This eliminates the
race window where VFs could send messages to an unresponsive PF.
This ordering is unsafe because if a spurious interrupt or pending
interrupt from a previous device state fires immediately after
request_irq() returns, the registered ISR enetc_msg_psi_msix() will
execute and unconditionally call:
schedule_work(&pf->msg_task)
At this point, pf->msg_task has not been initialized by INIT_WORK(), so
the work_struct contains garbage values in its internal linked list
pointers (work_struct->entry). Passing an uninitialized work_struct to
schedule_work() could corrupt the kernel's workqueue linked lists,
potentially leading to:
- Kernel panic in __queue_work()
- Memory corruption in workqueue data structures
- System deadlock or undefined behavior
Additionally, even if the work_struct was initialized, the mailbox DMA
buffers (pf->rxmsg[]) may not yet be allocated when the work handler
enetc_msg_task() runs, resulting in NULL pointer dereference.
Fix by reordering the initialization sequence to ensure all resources are
properly initialized before the interrupt handler can execute:
1. enetc_msg_alloc_mbx() <- Allocate all mailboxes
2. INIT_WORK(&pf->msg_task, ...) <- Initialize work first
3. request_irq(enetc_msg_psi_msix) <- Register IRQ last
4. Configure hardware & enable MR interrupts
This guarantees that when enetc_msg_psi_msix() runs:
- pf->msg_task is properly initialized (safe for schedule_work)
- pf->rxmsg[] buffers are allocated (safe for work handler access)
- Hardware is configured appropriately
As the inverse of enetc_msg_psi_init(), enetc_msg_psi_free() also has
similar problems. For example, if a pending interrupt fires between
enetc_msg_free_mbx() and free_irq(), the ISR enetc_msg_psi_msix() may
schedule the work handler again via schedule_work(), which could then
access already-freed DMA buffers (pf->rxmsg[]), leading to use-after-free
and potential memory corruption.
Therefore, the order of enetc_msg_psi_free() is adjusted:
1. enetc_msg_disable_mr_int() <- Stop new interrupts first
2. free_irq() <- Ensure no IRQ handler can run
3. cancel_work_sync() <- Wait for any pending work
4. enetc_msg_disable_mr_int() <- Re-disable in case work
re-enabled it
5. enetc_msg_free_mbx() <- Safe to free DMA buffers now

net: enetc: fix unbounded loop and interrupt handling in VF-to-PF messaging
The enetc_msg_task() function has several issues that need to be addressed:
1. Unbounded loop causing potential DoS:
enetc_msg_task() processes VF-to-PF mailbox messages in an unbounded
for(;;) loop that keeps polling ENETC_PSIMSGRR until no MR bits are set.
A malicious guest VM can exploit this by continuously sending messages at
a high rate - immediately sending a new message as soon as the PF
acknowledges the previous one. Since the worker thread never yields or
enforces a processing budget, the mr_mask check frequently evaluates to
non-zero, causing the PF to spin indefinitely and starving other tasks.
Fix this by replacing the unbounded loop with a single snapshot read at
task entry. The task processes only the VFs whose MR bits were set at
that point, then re-enables message interrupts before returning. This
bounds work per invocation to at most num_vfs iterations. No messages are
lost because the message interrupt is disabled in enetc_msg_psi_msix()
before scheduling enetc_msg_task(), so any new messages arriving during
processing will trigger a fresh interrupt once re-enabled, scheduling
another task invocation.
2. Write order of ENETC_PSIIDR and ENETC_PSIMSGRR:
Both ENETC_PSIIDR and ENETC_PSIMSGRR contain MR bits indicating messages
have been received from VSIs, but only ENETC_PSIIDR trigger the CPU
interrupt. Previously, ENETC_PSIMSGRR was written before ENETC_PSIIDR.
Writing ENETC_PSIMSGRR returns the message code to the VSI in its upper
16 bits, signaling to the VF that message processing is complete and it
may send the next message. If the VF sends a new message before
ENETC_PSIIDR is written, the subsequent w1c write to ENETC_PSIIDR would
inadvertently clear the MR bit set by the new message, causing the
interrupt to be lost and the new message to go unprocessed.
Therefore, write ENETC_PSIIDR first to clear the interrupt source, then
write ENETC_PSIMSGRR to acknowledge the message to the VSI.
3. Check both ENETC_PSIMSGRR and ENETC_PSIIDR for mr_status:
The write order change above introduces a potential race: if a VF sends
a new message in the window between the ENETC_PSIIDR w1c and the
ENETC_PSIMSGRR w1c, the ENETC_PSIMSGRR MR bit for the new message may
not be set. If mr_status was derived solely from ENETC_PSIMSGRR, this
message would never be detected despite ENETC_PSIIDR retaining its MR
bit, leading to an unacknowledged interrupt storm.
Fix this by computing mr_status as the union of both ENETC_PSIMSGRR and
ENETC_PSIIDR MR bits, ensuring all pending messages are detected
regardless of which register reflects the new message state.
Additionally, rename the per-register MR macros (ENETC_PSI*_MR_MASK,
ENETC_PSI*_MR) to register-agnostic names (ENETC_PSIMR_MASK,
ENETC_PSIMR_BIT) since the MR bit layout is shared across ENETC_PSIMSGRR,
ENETC_PSIIER, and ENETC_PSIIDR. Make the mask macro dynamic based on
the actual number of active VFs rather than hardcoded.

net: enetc: fix DMA write to freed memory in enetc_msg_free_mbx()
The teardown sequence in enetc_msg_psi_free() frees the DMA buffer before
clearing the device's DMA address registers. If a VF sends a message or a
pending DMA transfer completes within this window, the hardware will
perform a DMA write into the kernel memory that has already been returned
to the allocator.
The result is silent memory corruption that can affect arbitrary kernel
data structures. Therefore, clear the DMA address registers before the
DMA buffer is freed.

net: enetc: fix race condition in VF MAC address configuration
Sashiko reported a potential race condition between the VF message
handler and administrative VF MAC configuration from the host [1].
The VF message handler (enetc_msg_pf_set_vf_primary_mac_addr) runs
asynchronously in a workqueue context and accesses vf_state->flags
without any locking. Concurrently, the host can administratively
change the VF MAC address via enetc_pf_set_vf_mac(), which executes
under RTNL lock and modifies both vf_state->flags and hardware
registers.
This creates two race windows:
1) TOCTOU race on vf_state->flags: The check of ENETC_VF_FLAG_PF_SET_MAC
and subsequent MAC programming are not atomic, allowing the flag state
to change between check and use.
2) Torn MAC address writes: Hardware MAC programming requires multiple
non-atomic register writes (__raw_writel for lower 32 bits and
__raw_writew for upper 16 bits). Concurrent updates from VF mailbox
and PF admin paths can interleave these operations, resulting in a
corrupted MAC address being programmed into the hardware.
Fix by introducing a per-VF mutex to serialize access to vf_state and
hardware MAC register updates. Both enetc_pf_set_vf_mac() and
enetc_msg_pf_set_vf_primary_mac_addr() now acquire this lock before
accessing vf_state->flags or programming the MAC address, ensuring
atomic read-modify-write sequences and preventing register write
interleaving.
Wei Fang [Wed, 20 May 2026 06:44:16 +0000 (14:44 +0800)]
net: enetc: fix TOCTOU race and validate VF MAC address
Sashiko reported that the PF driver accepts arbitrary MAC address from
from VF mailbox messages without proper validation, creating a security
vulnerability [1].
In enetc_msg_pf_set_vf_primary_mac_addr(), the MAC address is extracted
directly from the message buffer (cmd->mac.sa_data) and programmed into
hardware via pf->ops->set_si_primary_mac() without any validity checks.
A malicious VF can configure a multicast, broadcast, or all-zero MAC
address. Therefore, a validation to check the MAC address provided by VF
is required.
However, simply checking the MAC address is not enough, because it also
has the potential TOCTOU race [2]: The code reads the MAC address from
the DMA buffer to validate it via is_valid_ether_addr(), if validation
passes, reads the same DMA buffer a second time when calling
enetc_pf_set_primary_mac_addr() to program the hardware. A malicious VF
can exploit this window by overwriting the MAC address in the DMA buffer
between the validation check and the hardware programming, bypassing the
validation entirely.
Therefore, allocate a local buffer in enetc_msg_handle_rxmsg() and copy
the message content from the DMA buffer via memcpy() before processing.
This ensures the PF operates on a stable snapshot that the VF cannot
modify.

net: enetc: add ratelimiting to VF mailbox error messages
Sashiko reported that a buggy or malicious guest VM can flood the host
kernel log by repeatedly sending VF-to-PF messages at a high rate,
degrading host performance and hiding important system logs [1].
Fix by replacing dev_err()/dev_warn() with dev_err_ratelimited(),
limiting output to the default kernel ratelimit. This ensures errors are
still logged for debugging while preventing log flooding attacks.

net: enetc: fix missing error code when pf->vf_state allocation fails
In enetc_pf_probe(), when the memory allocation for pf->vf_state fails,
the code jumps to the error handling label but the variable 'err' is not
assigned an appropriate error code beforehand. This causes the function
to return 0 (success) on an allocation failure path, misleading the
caller into thinking the probe succeeded. So set err to -ENOMEM before
jumping to the error handling label when the allocation for pf->vf_state
returns NULL.

net: enetc: fix incorrect mailbox message status returned to VFs
There are two cases where VFs receive an incorrect success status from
the PF mailbox message handler, misleading them into believing their
requests have been fulfilled:
In enetc_msg_handle_rxmsg(), *status is pre-initialized to
ENETC_MSG_CMD_STATUS_OK. When an unsupported command type is received,
the default case only logs an error without updating *status, so it
remains as ENETC_MSG_CMD_STATUS_OK.
In enetc_msg_pf_set_vf_primary_mac_addr(), when the PF has already
assigned a MAC address for the VF (ENETC_VF_FLAG_PF_SET_MAC is set),
the function rejects the request but returns ENETC_MSG_CMD_STATUS_OK
instead of ENETC_MSG_CMD_STATUS_FAIL.
Therefore, correct the status value for the two cases mentioned above.

An unprivileged local user can pin a host CPU indefinitely in
l2tp_session_get_by_ifname() by issuing L2TP_CMD_SESSION_GET on
L2TP_ATTR_IFNAME concurrently with L2TP_CMD_SESSION_CREATE and
L2TP_CMD_SESSION_DELETE on the same tunnel. All three commands take
GENL_UNS_ADMIN_PERM, so CAP_NET_ADMIN in the netns user namespace
suffices; on any host that has l2tp_core loaded the trigger is
reachable from a standard `unshare -Urn` sandbox.
l2tp_session_unhash() removes a session from tunnel->session_list
with list_del_init(), but that list is walked by
l2tp_session_get_by_ifname() with list_for_each_entry_rcu() under
rcu_read_lock_bh(). list_del_init() leaves the deleted entry's
next/prev self-pointing; a reader that has loaded the entry and
then advances pos->list.next reads &session->list, container_of()s
back to the same session, and list_for_each_entry_rcu() never
reaches the list head. The CPU stays in strcmp() inside the
walker, with BH and preemption disabled, so RCU grace periods on
the host stall behind it and the wedged thread cannot be killed
(SIGKILL is delivered on syscall return).
Use list_del_rcu() to match the existing list_add_rcu() in
l2tp_session_register(); the deleted session remains visible to
in-flight walkers with consistent next/prev pointers until
kfree_rcu() in l2tp_session_free() releases it. tunnel->session_list
has exactly one list_del_init() call site; the list_del_init
(&session->clist) at l2tp_core.c:533 operates on the per-collision
list, which is not walked under RCU. list_empty(&session->list) is
not used anywhere in net/l2tp/ after the unhash point, so dropping
the post-delete self-init is safe; the fix has no userspace-visible
behavior change.

net: bcmgenet: keep RBUF EEE/PM disabled
Setting RBUF_EEE_EN | RBUF_PM_EN in RBUF_ENERGY_CTRL breaks the RX

flowing while the link stays up and the usual descriptor/RX error
counters remain quiet. In that state the MAC still accepts frames
(rbuf_ovflow_cnt keeps climbing) but RBUF no longer forwards them to
DMA, so rx_packets is no longer incremented at the netdev level. On
some boards the corruption ends up as a paging fault in
skb_release_data via bcmgenet_rx_poll on an LPI exit.
Reproduced on Pi 4B (BCM2711 + BCM54213PE) and confirmed by Florian
Fainelli on an internal Broadcom 4908-family board with the same crash
signature. RBUF_PM_EN is not publicly documented.
This shows up more often now that phy_support_eee() enables EEE by
default, but it also affects older kernels as soon as TX LPI is
turned on via ethtool, so it is not specific to recent changes.
Always clear RBUF_EEE_EN | RBUF_PM_EN in bcmgenet_eee_enable_set so

ethernet: 3c509: Bring driver back and make some fixes
As per the previous discussions[1][2] this patch series brings the 3c509
driver back. Picking up net rather than net-next as I consider it a fix
to accidental removal and so that any downstream users do not suffer from
disruption when using released kernels.
In the course of making the coding style changes requested I have come
across an actual bug in transceiver type selection code, where the old
setting is not masked out before ORing in the new one, causing no change
to be actually made in a requested transition from BNC to AUI. I guess
this code must have been executed exceedingly rarely, as it's always been
wrong ever since it was added in 2.5.42 back in 2002.
Therefore I find it not worth backporting to stable branches, however for
the sake of appropriateness, in case someone downstream does want to have
the fix, I chose to apply it second in the series, right after the actual
revert and before code clean-ups.
The remaining patches of the series should be obvious; see the respective
commit descriptions for details.

netpoll: normalize skb->dev to the netpoll device
__netpoll_send_skb() always transmits through np->dev and queues busy
packets on np->dev->npinfo->txq, but it leaves skb->dev unchanged.
Stacked callers such as DSA and macvlan can reach netpoll with skb->dev
still naming the upper device while np->dev is the lower device that
owns the netpoll state.
If the skb has to be deferred, queue_process() later dequeues it from
the lower device's txq but retries it through skb->dev. That can
re-enter the upper ndo_start_xmit path on an already transformed skb,
and if the upper device disappears before the lower txq drains the
workqueue can dereference a stale skb->dev pointer.
The buggy scenario involves two paths, with each column showing the
order within that path:
path A label: netpoll enqueue path path B label: upper-device teardown
1. Stacked xmit calls netpoll 1. Teardown unregisters the upper
with lower np->dev and upper net_device while lower npinfo
skb->dev. stays alive.
2. __netpoll_send_skb() uses 2. netdev_release() runs for the
np->dev->npinfo as the txq upper net_device.

3. Busy transmit queues the skb 3. The lower txq still owns the

4. queue_process() drains the 4. queue_process() dereferences
lower txq and reads skb->dev. that stale upper skb->dev.
Normalize skb->dev to np->dev after loading np->dev from the netpoll
instance, before either the direct transmit path or the fallback enqueue.
This keeps the queued skb in the same device and txq domain as the
netpoll state that owns it.

phonet/pep: disable BH around forwarded sk_receive_skb()
The networking receive path is usually run from softirq context, but
protocols that take the socket lock may have packets stored in the
backlog and processed later from process context. In that case
release_sock() -> __release_sock() drops the slock with spin_unlock_bh()
and then calls sk->sk_backlog_rcv() with bottom halves enabled.
Typical sk_backlog_rcv handlers process the socket whose backlog is
being drained, so the BH state at entry is irrelevant for the slocks
they touch. pep_do_rcv() is different: when the inbound skb targets an
existing PEP pipe, it forwards the skb to a different *child* socket
via sk_receive_skb(). That helper takes the child slock with
bh_lock_sock_nested(), which is just spin_lock_nested() and assumes BH
is already off. The same child slock therefore ends up acquired with
BH on (process path) and with BH off (softirq path):
Lockdep flags this as inconsistent lock state, and it can become a real
self-deadlock if a softirq on the same CPU tries to receive to the same
child socket while its slock is held in the BH-enabled path:
Wrap the forwarded sk_receive_skb() in local_bh_disable() /
local_bh_enable() so the child slock is always acquired with BH off.
local_bh_disable() nests safely on the softirq path.

ring-buffer: Fix reporting of missed events in iterator
When tracing is active while reading the trace file, if the iterator
reading the buffer detects that the writer has passed the iterator head,
it will reset and set a "missed events" flag. This flag is passed to the
output processing to show the user that events were missed:
CPU:4 [LOST EVENTS]
The problem is that the flag is reset after it is checked in
ring_buffer_iter_dropped(). But the "trace" file iterates over all the CPU
ring buffers and it will check if they are dropped when figuring out which
buffer to print next. This prematurely clears the missed_events flag if
the CPU buffer with the missed events is not the one that is printed next.
On the iteration where the CPU buffer with the missed events is printed,
the check if it had missed events would return false and the output does
not show that events were missed.
Do not reset the missed_events flag when checking if there were missed
events, but instead clear it when moving the iterator head to the next
event.

vsock/virtio: fix skb overhead accounting to preserve full buf_alloc
Patch 1 resets the connection when we can no longer queue packets,
this prevents silent data loss, and both peers are notified.
Patch 2 increases the total budget to `buf_alloc * 2` for payload
plus skb overhead similar to how SO_RCVBUF is doubled to reserve
space for sk_buff metadata. This preserves the full buf_alloc for
payload under normal operation, while still bounding the skb queue
growth.
In the future, we plan to improve how we handle the merging of packets
to minimize overhead and avoid closing connections.
vsock/virtio: fix skb overhead accounting to preserve full buf_alloc
After commit 059b7dbd20a6 ("vsock/virtio: fix potential unbounded skb
queue"), virtio_transport_inc_rx_pkt() subtracts per-skb overhead from
buf_alloc when checking whether a new packet fits. This reduces the
effective receive buffer below what the user configured via
SO_VM_SOCKETS_BUFFER_SIZE, causing legitimate data packets to be
silently dropped and applications that rely on the full buffer size
to deadlock.
Also, the reduced space is not communicated to the remote peer, so
its credit calculation accounts more credit than the receiver will
actually accept, causing data loss (there is no retransmission).
With this approach we currently have failures in
tools/testing/vsock/vsock_test.c. Test 18 sometimes fails, while
test 22 always fails in this way:
18 - SOCK_STREAM MSG_ZEROCOPY...hash mismatch
Fix by allowing at most `buf_alloc * 2` as the total budget for payload
plus skb overhead in virtio_transport_inc_rx_pkt(), similar to how
SO_RCVBUF is doubled to reserve space for sk_buff metadata.
This preserves the full buf_alloc for payload under normal operation,
while still bounding the skb queue growth.
With this patch, all tests in tools/testing/vsock/vsock_test.c are
now passing again.
vsock/virtio: reset connection on receiving queue overflow
When there is no more space to queue an incoming packet, the packet is
silently dropped. This causes data loss without any notification to
either peer, since there is no retransmission.
Under normal circumstances, this should never happen. However, it could
happen if the other peer doesn't respect the credit, or if the skb
overhead, which we recently began to take into account with commit 059b7dbd20a6 ("vsock/virtio: fix potential unbounded skb queue"),
is too high.
Fix this by resetting the connection and setting the local socket error
to ENOBUFS when virtio_transport_recv_enqueue() can no longer queue a
packet, so both peers are explicitly notified of the failure rather than
silently losing data.

Add preliminary NETC switch support for i.MX94
i.MX94 NETC (v4.3) integrates 802.1Q Ethernet switch functionality, the
switch provides advanced QoS with 8 traffic classes and a full range of
TSN standards capabilities. It has 3 user ports and 1 CPU port, and the
CPU port is connected to an internal ENETC through the pseduo link, so
instead of a back-to-back MAC, the lightweight "pseudo MAC" is used at
both ends of the pseudo link to transfer Ethernet frames. The pseudo
link provides a zero-copy interface (no serialization delay) and lower
power (less logic and memory).
Like most Ethernet switches, the NETC switch also supports a proprietary
switch tag, is used to carry in-band metadata information about frames.
This in-band metadata information can include the source port from which
the frame was received, what was the reason why this frame got forwarded
to the entity, and for the entity to indicate the precise destination
port of a frame. The NETC switch tag is added to frames after the source
MAC address. There are three types of switch tags, and each type has 1
to 4 subtypes, more details are as follows.
Forward switch tag (Type = 0): Represents forwarded frames.
- SubType = 0 - Normal frame processing.
To_Port switch tag (Type = 1): Represents frames that are to be sent to
a specific switch port.
- SubType = 0. No request to perform timestamping.
- SubType = 1. Request to perform one-step timestamping.
- SubType = 2. Request to perform two-step timestamping.
- SubType = 3. Request to perform both one-step timestamping and
two-step timestamping.
To_Host switch tag (Type = 2): Represents frames redirected or copied to
the switch management port.
- SubType = 0. Received frames redirected or copied to the switch
management port.
- SubType = 1. Received frames redirected or copied to the switch
management port with captured timestamp at the switch port where
the frame was received.
- SubType = 2. Transmit timestamp response (two-step timestamping).
Currently, this patch set supports Forward tag, SubType 0 of To_Port tag
and SubType 0 of To_Host tag. More tags will be supported in the future.
In addition, the switch supports NETC Table Management Protocol (NTMP),
some switch functionality is controlled using control messages sent to
the hardware using BD ring interface with 32B descriptors similar to the
packet Transmit BD ring used on ENETC. This interface is referred to as
the command BD ring. This is used to configure functionality where the
underlying resources may be shared between different entities or being
too large to configure using direct registers.
For this patch set, we have supported the following tables through the
command BD ring interface.
FDB Table: It contains forwarding and/or filtering information about MAC
addresses. The FDB table is used for MAC learning lookups and MAC
forwarding lookups.
VLAN Filter Table: It contains configuration and control information for
each VLAN configured on the switch.
Buffer Pool Table: It contains buffer pool configuration and operational
information. Each entry corresponds to a buffer pool. Currently, we use
this table to implement flow control feature on each port.
Ingress Port Filter Table: It contains a set of filters each capable of
classifying incoming traffic using a mix of L2, L3, and L4 parsed and
arbitrary field data. We use this table to implement host flood support
to the switch port.
The switch also supports other tables, and we will add more advanced
features through them in the future.

the table. Currently, the NTMP driver does not support multiple rings.
Therefore, update ntmp_select_and_lock_cbdr() to select a appropriate
ring to execute the command for the switch.

net: enetc: add support for "Add" and "Delete" operations to IPFT
The ingress port filter table (IPFT )contains a set of filters each
capable of classifying incoming traffic using a mix of L2, L3, and L4
parsed and arbitrary field data. As a result of a filter match, several
actions can be specified such as on whether to deny or allow a frame,
overriding internal QoS attributes associated with the frame and setting
parameters for the subsequent frame processing functions, such as stream
identification, policing, ingress mirroring. Each entry corresponds to a
filter. The ingress port filter entries are added using a precedence
value. If a frame matches multiple entries, the entry with the higher
precedence is used. Currently, this patch only adds "Add" and "Delete"
operations to the ingress port filter table. These two interfaces will
be used by both ENETC driver and NETC switch driver.

net: enetc: add support for the "Update" operation to buffer pool table
The buffer pool table contains buffer pool configuration and operational
information. Each entry corresponds to a buffer pool. The Entry ID value
represents the buffer pool ID to access.
The buffer pool table is a static bounded index table, buffer pools are
always present and enabled. It only supports Update and Query operations,
This patch only adds ntmp_bpt_update_entry() helper to support updating
the specified entry of the buffer pool table. Query action to the table
will be added in the future.
