net: cadence: macb: Expose REFCLK as a device tree property
The RMII and RGMII can both support internal or external provided
REFCLKs 50MHz and 125MHz respectively. Since this is dependent on
the board that the SoC is on this needs to be set via the device tree.
This property flag is checked in the MACB DT node so the REFCLK cap is

REFCLK can be provided by an external source so this should be exposed
by a DT property. The REFCLK is used for RMII and in some SoCs that use

selftest: net: Add selftest for netpoll
I am submitting a new selftest for the netpoll subsystem specifically
targeting the case where the RX is polling in the TX path, which is
a case that we don't have any test in the tree today. This is done when
netpoll_poll_dev() called, and this test creates a scenario when that is
probably.
The test does the following:
1) Configuring a single RX/TX queue to increase contention on the
interface.
2) Generating background traffic to saturate the network, mimicking
real-world congestion.
3) Sending netconsole messages to trigger netpoll polling and monitor
its behavior.
4) Using dynamic netconsole targets via configfs, with the ability to
delete and recreate targets during the test.
5) Running bpftrace in parallel to verify that netpoll_poll_dev() is
called when expected. If it is called, then the test passes,
otherwise the test is marked as skipped.
In order to achieve it, I stole Jakub's bpftrace helper from [1], and
did some small changes that I found useful to use the helper.
So, this patchset basically contains:
1) The code stolen from Jakub
2) Improvements on bpftrace() helper
3) The selftest itself
selftests: net: add netpoll basic functionality test
Add a basic selftest for the netpoll polling mechanism, specifically
targeting the netpoll poll() side.
The test creates a scenario where network transmission is running at
maximum speed, and netpoll needs to poll the NIC. This is achieved by:
1. Configuring a single RX/TX queue to create contention
2. Generating background traffic to saturate the interface
3. Sending netconsole messages to trigger netpoll polling
4. Using dynamic netconsole targets via configfs
5. Delete and create new netconsole targets after some messages
6. Start a bpftrace in parallel to make sure netpoll_poll_dev() is
called
7. If bpftrace exists and netpoll_poll_dev() was called, stop.
The test validates a critical netpoll code path by monitoring traffic
flow and ensuring netpoll_poll_dev() is called when the normal TX path
is blocked.
This addresses a gap in netpoll test coverage for a path that is
tricky for the network stack.

that it predates the introduction of kernel_accept().
This series improves a couple of aspects of MCTP bind() handling.
MCTP wasn't checking whether the same MCTP type was bound by multiple
sockets. That would result in messages being received by an arbitrary
socket, which isn't useful behaviour. Instead it makes more sense to
have the duplicate binds fail, the same as other network protocols.
An exception is made for more-specific binds to particular MCTP
addresses.
It is also useful to be able to limit a bind to only receive incoming
request messages (MCTP TO bit set) from a specific peer+type, so that
individual processes can communicate with separate MCTP peers. One
example is a PLDM firmware update requester, which will initiate
communication with a device, and then the device will connect back to the
requester process.
These limited binds are implemented by a connect() call on the socket
prior to bind. connect() isn't used in the general case for MCTP, since
a plain send() wouldn't provide the required MCTP tag argument for
addressing.

If a PHY has no driver, the genphy driver is probed/removed directly in

This could occur if the leds are for a non-generic driver that isn't

phy_detach leads to the following deadlock:
There is a corresponding deadlock on the open/register side of things
(and that one is reported by lockdep), but it requires a race while this
one is deterministic. Regular drivers do not have this problem since
they are probed asynchronously (without RTNL held).

* Implement queue mapping validation to ensure TX/RX queue count match
* Wake all queues during device unlinking to prevent stuck queues
* Use RCU protection when accessing peer device references
* wake the queues when changing the queue numbers

Network management daemons that match on the device permanent address
currently have no virtual interface types to test against.
NetworkManager, in particular, has carried an out of tree patch to set
the permanent address on netdevsim devices to use in its CI for this
purpose.
To support this use case, support setting netdev->perm_addr when
creating a netdevsim port.
selftests: flip local/remote endpoints in iou-zcrx.py
The iou-zcrx selftest currently runs the server on the remote host
and the client on the local host. This commit flips the endpoints
such that server runs on localhost and client on remote.
This change brings the iou-zcrx selftest in convention with other
selftests.
Drive-by fix for a missing import exception that happens when the
network interface has less than 2 combined channels.
Test plan: ran iou-zcrx.py selftest between 2 physical machines

sfc: falcon: refactor and document ef4_ethtool_get_rxfh_fields
The code had some rather odd control flow inherited from when it was
shared with siena and ef10 before this driver was split out.
Simplify that for easier reading.
Also add a comment explaining why we return the values we do, since
some Falcon documents and datasheets confusingly mention the part
supporting 4-tuple UDP hashing.
(I couldn't find any record of exactly what was "broken" about the
original Falcon A hash, I'm just trusting that falcon_init_rx_cfg()
had a good reason for not using it.)

net_sched: act: extend RCU use in dump() methods
We are trying to get away from central RTNL in favor of fine-grained
mutexes. While looking at net/sched, I found that act already uses
RCU in the fast path for the most cases, and could also be used
in dump() methods.
This series is not complete and will be followed by a second one.

net_sched: act_ctinfo: use atomic64_t for three counters
Commit 21c167aa0ba9 ("net/sched: act_ctinfo: use percpu stats")
missed that stats_dscp_set, stats_dscp_error and stats_cpmark_set
might be written (and read) locklessly.
Use atomic64_t for these three fields, I doubt act_ctinfo is used
heavily on big SMP hosts anyway.

selftests/tc-testing: Add tests for restrictions on netem duplication
Ensure that a duplicating netem cannot exist in a tree with other netems
in both qdisc addition and change. This is meant to prevent the soft
lockup and OOM loop scenario discussed in [1]. Also adjust a HFSC's
re-entrancy test case with netem for this new restriction - KASAN
still triggers upon its failure.

net/sched: Restrict conditions for adding duplicating netems to qdisc tree
netem_enqueue's duplication prevention logic breaks when a netem
resides in a qdisc tree with other netems - this can lead to a
soft lockup and OOM loop in netem_dequeue, as seen in [1].
Ensure that a duplicating netem cannot exist in a tree with other
netems.
Previous approaches suggested in discussions in chronological order:
1) Track duplication status or ttl in the sk_buff struct. Considered
too specific a use case to extend such a struct, though this would
be a resilient fix and address other previous and potential future
DOS bugs like the one described in loopy fun [2].
2) Restrict netem_enqueue recursion depth like in act_mirred with a
per cpu variable. However, netem_dequeue can call enqueue on its
child, and the depth restriction could be bypassed if the child is a
netem.
3) Use the same approach as in 2, but add metadata in netem_skb_cb
to handle the netem_dequeue case and track a packet's involvement
in duplication. This is an overly complex approach, and Jamal
notes that the skb cb can be overwritten to circumvent this
safeguard.
4) Prevent the addition of a netem to a qdisc tree if its ancestral
path contains a netem. However, filters and actions can cause a
packet to change paths when re-enqueued to the root from netem
duplication, leading us to the current solution: prevent a
duplicating netem from inhabiting the same tree as other netems.
