be2net: patch set
Hi David, this patch set includes 3 bug fixes to the be2net driver.
Patch 1 fixes a vlan isolation issue with VFs. When a VF is placed in
promiscous mode, it could receive packets belonging to any vlan, as
the PF driver grants vlan promisc capability to VFs. The PF
driver now disables the vlan promisc capability for VFs to fix this
problem.
Patch 2 fixes the call to MODIFY_EQ_DELAY FW cmd to not include more
than 8 EQs per cmd. The FW is not capable of handling more than 8 EQs
per cmd.
Patch 3 fixes an EEH error detection issue. On Power platforms,
when an EEH error occurs, the slot disconnect state is more reliably
detected via an MMIO read compared to a config read. So, the error
register reads that occur every second are now done via MMIO.
Pls apply this patch set to the "net" tree. Thanks!

When an EEH error occurs, the device/slot is disconnected. This condition
is more reliably detected (i.e., returns all ones) with an MMIO read rather
than a config read -- especially on power platforms.
Hence, this patch fixes EEH error detection by replacing config reads with
MMIO reads for reading the error registers. The error registers in
Skyhawk-R/BE2/BE3 are accessible both via the config space and the
PCICFG (BAR0) memory space.

Issuing this cmd for more than 8 EQs does not have the intended effect
even on BEx and Skyhawk-R.
This patch fixes this by issuing this cmd for upto 8 EQs at a time.

Currently, a PF does not restrict its VF interface from enabling vlan
promiscuous mode. This breaks vlan isolation when a vlan
(transparent tagging) is configured on a VF.
This patch fixes this problem by disabling the vlan promisc capability
for VFs.

init_mm isn't a normal mm: it has swapper_pg_dir as its pgd (which
contains kernel mappings) and is used as the active_mm for the idle
thread.
When restoring the pgd after an EFI call, we write current->active_mm
into TTBR0. If the current task is actually the idle thread (e.g. when
initialising the EFI RTC before entering userspace), then the TLB can
erroneously populate itself with junk global entries as a result of
speculative table walks.
When we do eventually return to userspace, the task can end up hitting
these junk mappings leading to lockups, corruption or crashes.
This patch fixes the problem in the same way as the CPU suspend code by
ensuring that we never switch to the init_mm in efi_set_pgd and instead
point TTBR0 at the zero page. A check is also added to cpu_switch_mm to
BUG if we get passed swapper_pg_dir.

On a MIPS Malta board, tons of fifo underflow errors have been observed
when using u-boot as bootloader instead of YAMON. The reason for that
is that YAMON used to set the pcnet device to SRAM mode but u-boot does
not. As a result, the default Tx threshold (64 bytes) is now too small to
keep the fifo relatively used and it can result to Tx fifo underflow errors.
As a result of which, it's best to setup the SRAM on supported controllers
so we can always use the NOUFLO bit.

udp6_ufo_fragment
Matt Grant reported frequent crashes in ipv6_select_ident when
udp6_ufo_fragment is called from openvswitch on a skb that doesn't
have a dst_entry set.
ipv6_proxy_select_ident generates the frag_id without using the dst
associated with the skb. This approach was suggested by Vladislav
Yasevich.

Commit b4b55cda5874 (Refine the way to release PCI IRQ resources)
introduced a regression in the PCI IRQ resource management by causing
the IRQ resource of a device, established when pci_enabled_device()
is called on a fully disabled device, to be released when the driver
is unbound from the device, regardless of the enable_cnt.
This leads to the situation that an ill-behaved driver can now make a
device unusable to subsequent drivers by an imbalance in their use of
pci_enable/disable_device(). That is a serious problem for secondary
drivers like vfio-pci, which are innocent of the transgressions of
the previous driver.
Since the solution of this problem is not immediate and requires
further discussion, revert commit b4b55cda5874 and the issue it was
supposed to address (a bug related to xen-pciback) will be taken
care of in a different way going forward.

Commit 4a157d61b48c ("KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Fix endianness of
instruction obtained from HEIR register") had the side effect that
we no longer reset vcpu->arch.last_inst to -1 on guest exit in
the cases where the instruction is not fetched from the guest.
This means that if instruction emulation turns out to be required
in those cases, the host will emulate the wrong instruction, since
vcpu->arch.last_inst will contain the last instruction that was
emulated.
This fixes it by making sure that vcpu->arch.last_inst is reset
to -1 in those cases.

The VPA (virtual processor area) is defined by PAPR and is therefore
big-endian, so we need a be32_to_cpu when reading it in
kvmppc_get_yield_count(). Without this, H_CONFER always fails on a

spinlocks.

Currently, kvmppc_set_lpcr() has a spinlock around the whole function,
and inside that does mutex_lock(&kvm->lock). It is not permitted to
take a mutex while holding a spinlock, because the mutex_lock might
call schedule(). In addition, this causes lockdep to warn about a
lock ordering issue:

emulate_write_cache is 0
A check that rejects a CDB with FUA bit set if no write cache is
emulated was added by the following commit:
fde9f50 target: Add sanity checks for DPO/FUA bit usage
The condition is as follows:
if (!dev->dev_attrib.emulate_fua_write ||
!dev->dev_attrib.emulate_write_cache)
However, this check is wrong if the backend device supports WCE but
"emulate_write_cache" is disabled.
This patch uses se_dev_check_wce() (previously named
spc_check_dev_wce) to invoke transport->get_write_cache() if the
device has a write cache or check the "emulate_write_cache" attribute
otherwise.

This patch fixes a NULL pointer dereference triggered by a late
target_configure_device() -> alloc_workqueue() failure that results
in target_free_device() being called with DF_CONFIGURED already set,
which subsequently OOPses in destroy_workqueue() code.
Currently this only happens at modprobe target_core_mod time when
core_dev_setup_virtual_lun0() -> target_configure_device() fails,
and the explicit target_free_device() gets called.
To address this bug originally introduced by commit 0fd97ccf45, go
ahead and move DF_CONFIGURED to end of target_configure_device()
code to handle this special failure case.

fabric code to invoke transport_register_session() instead of the
unprotected flavour, to ensure se_tpg->session_lock is taken when

Note that since these four fabric drivers already hold their own
internal TPG mutexes when accessing se_tpg->tpg_sess_list, and
consist of a single se_session created through configfs attribute
access, no list corruption can currently occur.
So for correctness sake, go ahead and use the se_tpg->session_lock

We currently use the device tree update code in the kernel after resuming
from a suspend operation to re-sync the kernels view of the device tree with
that of the hypervisor. The code as it stands is not endian safe as it relies
on parsing buffers returned by RTAS calls that thusly contains data in big
endian format.
This patch annotates variables and structure members with __be types as well
as performing necessary byte swaps to cpu endian for data that needs to be
parsed.

Since we can now use hypervisor doorbells for host IPIs, this makes
sure we clear the host IPI flag when taking a doorbell interrupt, and
clears any pending doorbell IPI in pnv_smp_cpu_kill_self() (as we
already do for IPIs sent via the XICS interrupt controller). Otherwise
if there did happen to be a leftover pending doorbell interrupt for
an offline CPU thread for any reason, it would prevent that thread from
going into a power-saving mode; it would instead keep waking up because
of the interrupt.

The reason is that state is never reset (stays with PERF_HES_UPTODATE set).
Add a call to sparc_pmu_enable_event during the added_event handling.
Clean up the encoding since pmu_start calls sparc_pmu_enable_event which
does the same. Passing PERF_EF_RELOAD to sparc_pmu_start means the call
to sparc_perf_event_set_period can be removed as well.
With this patch:

perf_pmu_disable is called by core perf code before pmu->del and the
enable function is called by core perf code afterwards. No need to
call again within sparc_pmu_del.
Ditto for pmu->add and sparc_pmu_add.

This patch fixes a NULL pointer dereference when enabling regmap event
tracing in the presence of a syscon regmap, introduced by commit bdb0066df96e
("mfd: syscon: Decouple syscon interface from platform devices").
That patch introduced syscon regmaps that have their dev field set to NULL.
The regmap trace events expect it to point to a valid struct device and feed
it to dev_name():

SAS controller has its own tag allocation, which doesn't directly match to ATA
tag, so SAS and SATA have different code path for ata tags. Originally we use
port->scsi_host (98bd4be1) to destinguish SAS controller, but libsas set
->scsi_host too, so we can't use it for the destinguish, we add a new flag for
this purpose.
Without this patch, the following oops can happen because scsi-mq uses
a host-wide tag map shared among all devices with some integer tag
values >= ATA_MAX_QUEUE. These unexpectedly high tag values cause
__ata_qc_from_tag() to return NULL, which is then dereferenced in
ata_qc_new_init().

Several tests that rely on implicit build rules fail to build,
when invoked from the main Makefile kselftest target. These
failures are due to --no-builtin-rules and --no-builtin-variables
options set in the inherited MAKEFLAGS.
--no-builtin-rules eliminates the use of built-in implicit rules
and --no-builtin-variables is for not defining built-in variables.
These two options override the use of implicit rules resulting in
build failures. In addition, inherited LDFLAGS result in build
failures and there is no need to define LDFLAGS. Clear LDFLAGS
and MAKEFLAG when make is invoked from the main Makefile kselftest
target. Fixing this at selftests Makefile avoids changing the main
Makefile and keeps this change self contained at selftests level.

The socfpga.dtsi currently has the wrong interrupt number set for SPI master 1
Trying to use the master without this change results in the kernel boot
process waiting forever for an interrupt that will never occur while
attempting to probe any slave devices configured in the device tree as being
under SPI master 1.
The change works for the Cyclone V, and according to the Arria 5 handbook
should be good there too.

The misc subsystem (which is used for /dev/fuse) initializes private_data to
point to the misc device when a driver has registered a custom open file
operation, and initializes it to NULL when a custom open file operation has
*not* been provided.
This subtle quirk is confusing, to the point where kernel code registers
*empty* file open operations to have private_data point to the misc device
structure. And it leads to bugs, where the addition or removal of a custom open
file operation surprisingly changes the initial contents of a file's
private_data structure.
So to simplify things in the misc subsystem, a patch [1] has been proposed to
*always* set the private_data to point to the misc device, instead of only
doing this when a custom open file operation has been registered.
But before this patch can be applied we need to modify drivers that make the
assumption that a misc device file's private_data is initialized to NULL
because they didn't register a custom open file operation, so they don't rely
on this assumption anymore. FUSE uses private_data to store the fuse_conn and
errors out if this is not initialized to NULL at mount time.
Hence, we now set a file's private_data to NULL explicitly, to be independent
of whatever value the misc subsystem initializes it to by default.

This reverts commit 2fa645cb2703d9b3786d850db815414dfeefa51d.
The assumption that at least 1 preferred console will be registered
when the stdout-path property is set is invalid, which can result
in _no_ consoles.
