net: bcmgenet and systemport statistics fixes

This two patches fix a similar problem in the GENET and SYSTEMPORT drivers
for software maintained statistics used to track DMA mapping and SKB
re-allocation failures.
====================
Signed-off-by: NDavid S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Commit 60b4ea17 ("net: systemport: log RX buffer allocation and RX/TX DMA
failures") added a few software maintained statistics using
BCM_SYSPORT_STAT_MIB_RX and BCM_SYSPORT_STAT_MIB_TX. These statistics are read
from the hardware MIB counters, such that bcm_sysport_update_mib_counters() was
trying to read from a non-existing MIB offset for these counters.

Fix this by introducing a special type: BCM_SYSPORT_STAT_SOFT, similar to
BCM_SYSPORT_STAT_NETDEV, such that bcm_sysport_get_ethtool_stats will read from
the software mib.

$ sudo ip link del hsr0
BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000018
IP: [<ffffffff8187f495>] hsr_del_port+0x15/0xa0
etc...

Bug description:

As part of the hsr master device destruction, hsr_del_port() is called for each of
the hsr ports. At each such call, the master device is updated regarding features
and mtu. When the master device is freed before the slave interfaces, master will
be NULL in hsr_del_port(), which led to a NULL pointer dereference.

Additionally, dev_put() was called on the master device itself in hsr_del_port(),
causing a refcnt error.

A third bug in the same code path was that the rtnl lock was not taken before
hsr_del_port() was called as part of hsr_dev_destroy().

The reporter (Nicolas Dichtel) also said: "hsr_netdev_notify() supposes that the
port will always be available when the notification is for an hsr interface. It's
wrong. For example, netdev_wait_allrefs() may resend NETDEV_UNREGISTER.". As a
precaution against this, a check for port == NULL was added in hsr_dev_notify().

Commit 740c7f31 ("sh_eth: Ensure DMA engines are stopped before
freeing buffers") added a call to sh_eth_reset() to the
sh_eth_set_ringparam() and sh_eth_close() paths.

However, setting the software reset bit(s) in the EDMR register resets
the MAC Address Registers to zero. Hence after kexec, the new kernel
doesn't detect a valid MAC address and assigns a random MAC address,
breaking DHCP.

Set the MAC address again after the reset in sh_eth_dev_exit() to fix
this.

Tested on r8a7740/armadillo (GETHER) and r8a7791/koelsch (FAST_RCAR).

This patch adds bcmgenet_tx_poll for the tx_rings. This can reduce the

separated for the completion of tx_ring16 from bcmgenet_poll.

The bcmgenet_tx_reclaim of tx_ring[{0,1,2,3}] operative by an interrupt

Brian reported crashes using IPv6 traffic with macvtap/veth combo.

I tracked the crashes in neigh_hh_output()

-> memcpy(skb->data - HH_DATA_MOD, hh->hh_data, HH_DATA_MOD);

Neighbour code assumes headroom to push Ethernet header is
at least 16 bytes.

It appears macvtap has only 14 bytes available on arches
where NET_IP_ALIGN is 0 (like x86)

Effect is a corruption of 2 bytes right before skb->head,
and possible crashes if accessing non existing memory.

This fix should also increase IPv4 performance, as paranoid code
in ip_finish_output2() wont have to call skb_realloc_headroom()

Prior to this patch, sending a packet with the source MAC address of one
of the CPSW interfaces to one of the CPSW slave ports while it's configured in
dual_emac mode would update the port_num field of the VLAN/Unicast Address
Table Entry. This would cause it to discard all incoming traffic addressed to
that MAC address, essentially rendering the port useless until the ALE table is
cleared (by starting and stopping the interface or rebooting.)

For example, if eth0 has a MAC address of 90:59:af:8f:43:e9 it will have
an ALE table entry:

00 00 00 00 59 90 02 30 e9 43 8f af
(VLAN Addr vlan_id=2 unicast type=0 port_num=0 addr=90:59:af:8f:43:e9)

If you configure another device with the same MAC address and connect it
to the first CPSW slave port and send some traffic the ALE table entry
becomes:

04 00 00 00 59 90 02 30 e9 43 8f af
(VLAN Addr vlan_id=2 unicast type=0 port_num=1 addr=90:59:af:8f:43:e9)

>From this point forward all incoming traffic addressed to
90:59:af:8f:43:e9 will be dropped.

Setting the SECURE bit for the VLAN/Unicast address table entry for each
interface's MAC address corrects the problem.

There is a discrepancy here because the niu_class_to_ethflow() returns
zero on failure and one on success but the caller expected zero on
success and negative on failure.

The problem means that we allow the user to pass classes and flow_types

The smc91x driver traditionally gets configured at compile-time
for whichever hardware it runs on. This no longer works on
ARM as we continue to move to building all-in-one kernels.

Most ARM configurations with this driver already use run-time
configuration through DT or through platform_data, but a
few have not been converted yet.

I've checked all ARM boards that use this driver in their
legacy board files, and converted the ones that were using
compile-time configuration in smc91x.h to behave like the
other ones and provide the interrupt polarity along with
the MMIO configuration (width, stride) at platform device
creation time.

In particular, these combinations were previously selectable
in Kconfig but in fact broken:

- sa1100 assabet plus pleb
- msm combined with any other armv6/v7 platform
- pxa-idp combined with any non-DMA pxa variant
- LogicPD PXA270 combined with any other pxa
- nomadik combined with any other armv4/v5 platform,
  e.g. versatile.

None of these seem critical enough to warrant a backport
to stable, but it would be nice to clean this up for good.

Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2015-02-26

This series contains fixes for i40e and i40evf only.

Alexey Khoroshilov found a possible leak of 'cmd_buf' when copy_from_user()
failed in i40e_dbg_command_write(), so resolved by calling kfree().

Shannon provides a fix to ensure the shift and bitwise precedences do not
work backwards for us by adding parans.  Fixed the driver by preventing
the driver from allowing stray interrupts or causing system logs from
un-handled interrupts by combining the ICR0 shutdown with the standard
interrupt shutdown and add the interrupt clearing to the PCI shutdown
path.  Fixed an issue where a NVM write times out before a transaction
can complete, so Shannon added logic to make another attempt by
reacquiring the semaphore, then retry the write, if the one retry fails,
we will then give up.  Adds checks to pointers before their use to ensure
we do not try to dereference NULL pointers when returning values from the
AdminQ calls.

Akeem adds a check to bail out if the device is already down when checking
for Tx hang subtask.

Anjali fixes TSO with more than 8 frags per segment issue.  The hardware
has some limitations which the driver needs to adhere to:
  1) no more than 8 descriptors per packet on the wire
  2) no header can span more than 3 descriptors
If one of these events happens, the hardware will generate an internal
error and freeze the Tx queue, so Anjali fixes this by linearizes the skb
to avoid these situations.  Fixed an issue where the per Traffic Class
queue count was higher than queues enabled, which will fix a warning
with multiple function mode where systems regularly have more cores than
vectors.  Fixed TCP/IPv6 over VXLAN Tx checksum offload, where we were
checking the outer protocol flags and deciding the flow for the inner
header.

Jesse fixes a race condition in the transmit hang detection.  Before we
were having issues of false Tx hang detection, no the driver makes more
direct with the checks for progress forward by directly checking the head
write back address and tail register when determining progress.  This
avoids Tx hangs where the software gets behind, because we are directly
checking hardware state when determining a hang state.

Neerav fixes the transmit ring Qset handle when DCB reconfigures. The issue
was when DCB is reconfigured to a single traffic class (TC) and the driver
did not reset the Tx ring Qset handle to correct the mapping, which caused
the Tx queue to disable timeouts.  Also as part of DCB reconfiguration flow
if the Tx queue disable times out, then issue a PF reset to do some level
of recovery.

Mitch stops flow director on shutdown because, in some cases, the hardware
would continue to try to access the FDIR ring after entering D3Hot state,
which would cause either PCIe errors or NMIs, depending upon the system
configuration.

* NOTE * I have verified that this series of patches for net will not cause
any merge issues when you sync up your net tree with your net-next tree.

It is possible that the hardware may not have been properly shutdown
before this driver gets control, through use by firmware, for example.
Until the driver is loaded, interrupts associated with the hardware
could go pending. When the IRQs are requested napi support has not
been initialized yet, but the ISR will get control and schedule napi
processing resulting in a kernel panic because the poll routine has not
been set.

Adjust the code so that the driver is fully ready to handle and process
interrupts as soon as the IRQs are requested. This involves requesting
and freeing IRQs during start and stop processing and ordering the napi
add and delete calls appropriately.

Also adjust the powerup and powerdown routines to match the start and
stop routines in regards to the ordering of tasks, including napi
related calls.

rhashtable updates

As discussed, I'm sending out rhashtable fixups for -net.

I have a couple of more patches I was working on last week pending,
i.e. to get rid of ht->nelems and ht->shift atomic operations which
speed-up pure insertions/deletions, e.g. on my laptop I have 2 threads,
inserting 7M entries each, that will reduce insertion time from ~1,450 ms

grow/shrink indirections). I guess that however is rather something
for net-next.

Currently, all real users of rhashtable default their grow and shrink
decision functions to rht_grow_above_75() and rht_shrink_below_30(),
so that there's currently no need to have this explicitly selectable.

It can/should be generic and private inside rhashtable until a real
use case pops up. Since we can make this private, we'll save us this
additional indirection layer and can improve insertion/deletion time
as well.

While commit c0c09bfd ("rhashtable: avoid unnecessary wakeup for
worker queue") rightfully moved part of the decision making of
whether we should expand or shrink from the expand/shrink functions
themselves into insert/delete functions in order to avoid unnecessary
worker wake-ups, it however introduced a regression by doing so.

Before that change, if no max_shift was specified (= 0) on rhashtable
initialization, rhashtable_expand() would just grow unconditionally
and lets the available memory be the limiting factor. After that
change, if no max_shift was specified, there would be _no_ expansion
step at all.

Given that netlink and tipc have a max_shift specified, it was not
visible there, but Josh Hunt reported that if nft that starts out
with a default element hint of 3 if not otherwise provided, would
slow i.e. inserts down trememdously as it cannot grow larger to
relax table occupancy.

Given that the test case verifies shrinks/expands manually, we also
must remove pointer to the helper functions to explicitly avoid
parallel resizing on insertions/deletions. test_bucket_stats() and
test_rht_lookup() could also be wrapped around rhashtable mutex to
explicitly synchronize a walk from resizing, but I think that defeats
the actual test case which intended to have explicit test steps,
i.e. 1) inserts, 2) expands, 3) shrinks, 4) deletions, with object
verification after each stage.

The 2 that we use for copy_to_iter comes from sizeof(u16),
it used to be that way before the iov iter update.
Fix it up, making it obvious the size of stack access
is right.

Recent iterator-related changes in vhost made it
harder to follow the logic fixing up the header.
In fact, the fixup always happens at the same
offset: sizeof(virtio_net_hdr): sometimes the
fixup iterator is updated by copy_to_iter,
sometimes-by iov_iter_advance.

Rearrange code to make this obvious.

"val" is declared as a u64 so static checkers complain that this shift
can wrap.  I don't have the hardware but probably it's doesn't have over
31 ports.  Still we may as well silence the warning even if it's not a
real bug.

When doing reads and writes to adapter memory via the PCI-E Memory Window
interface, data gets swizzled on 4-byte boundaries on Big-Endian systems
because we need to account for the register read/write interface which
incorporates a swizzle onto the Little-Endian PCI-E Bus.

The current minstrel_ht rate control behavior is somewhat optimistic in
trying to find optimum TX rate. While this is usually fine for normal
Data frames, there are cases where a more conservative set of retry
parameters would be beneficial to make the connection more robust.

EAPOL frames are critical to the authentication and especially the
EAPOL-Key message 4/4 (the last message in the 4-way handshake) is
important to get through to the AP. If that message is lost, the only
recovery mechanism in many cases is to reassociate with the AP and start
from scratch. This can often be avoided by trying to send the frame with
more conservative rate and/or with more link layer retries.

In most cases, minstrel_ht is currently using the initial EAPOL-Key
frames for probing higher rates and this results in only five link layer
transmission attempts (one at high(ish) MCS and four at MCS0). While
this works with most APs, it looks like there are some deployed APs that
may have issues with the EAPOL frames using HT MCS immediately after
association. Similarly, there may be issues in cases where the signal
strength or radio environment is not good enough to be able to get
frames through even at couple of MCS 0 tries.

The best approach for this would likely to be to reduce the TX rate for
the last rate (3rd rate parameter in the set) to a low basic rate (say,
6 Mbps on 5 GHz and 2 or 5.5 Mbps on 2.4 GHz), but doing that cleanly
requires some more effort. For now, we can start with a simple one-liner
that forces the minimum rate to be used for EAPOL frames similarly how
the TX rate is selected for the IEEE 802.11 Management frames. This does
result in a small extra latency added to the cases where the AP would be
able to receive the higher rate, but taken into account how small number
of EAPOL frames are used, this is likely to be insignificant. A future
optimization in the minstrel_ht design can also allow this patch to be
reverted to get back to the more optimized initial TX rate.

It should also be noted that many drivers that do not use minstrel as
the rate control algorithm are already doing similar workarounds by
forcing the lowest TX rate to be used for EAPOL frames.
