The call state may be changed at any time by the data-ready routine in
response to received packets, so if the call state is to be read and acted
upon several times in a function, READ_ONCE() must be used unless the call
state lock is held.
As it happens, we used READ_ONCE() to read the state a few lines above the
unmarked read in rxrpc_input_data(), so use that value rather than
re-reading it.

Clang static analysis reports the following:
net/rxrpc/key.c:657:11: warning: Assigned value is garbage or undefined
toksize = toksizes[tok++];
^ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
rxrpc_read() contains two consecutive loops. The first loop calculates the
token sizes and stores the results in toksizes[] and the second one uses
the array. When there is an error in identifying the token in the first
loop, the token is skipped, no change is made to the toksizes[] array.
When the same error happens in the second loop, the token is not skipped.
This will cause the toksizes[] array to be out of step and will overrun
past the calculated sizes.
Fix this by making both loops log a message and return an error in this
case. This should only happen if a new token type is incompletely
implemented, so it should normally be impossible to trigger this.

net/smc: fix out of bound access in netlink interface
Both patches fix possible out-of-bounds reads. The original code expected
that snprintf() reads len-1 bytes from source and appends the terminating
null, but actually snprintf() first copies len bytes and finally overwrites
the last byte with a null.
Fix this by using memcpy() and terminating the string afterwards.

The function bnxt_get_ulp_stat_ctxs() does not count the stats contexts
used by the RDMA driver correctly when the RDMA driver is freeing the
MSIX vectors. It assumes that if the RDMA driver is registered, the
additional stats contexts will be needed. This is not true when the
RDMA driver is about to unregister and frees the MSIX vectors.
This slight error leads to over accouting of the stats contexts needed
after the RDMA driver has unloaded. This will cause some firmware
warning and error messages in dmesg during subsequent config. changes
or ifdown/ifup.
Fix it by properly accouting for extra stats contexts only if the
RDMA driver is registered and MSIX vectors have been successfully
requested.

This commit enables the use of the r8153_ecm driver, introduced with
commit c1aedf015ebdd0 ("net/usb/r8153_ecm: support ECM mode for
RTL8153") for the Lenovo Powered USB-C Hub (17ef:721e) based on the
Realtek RTL8153B chip.
This results in the following driver preference:
- if r8152 is available, use the r8152 driver
- if r8152 is not available, use the r8153_ecm driver
This is done to prevent the NIC from constantly sending pause frames
when the host system enters standby (fixed by using the r8152 driver
in "r8152: Add Lenovo Powered USB-C Travel Hub"), while still allowing
the device to work with the r8153_ecm driver as a fallback.

This USB-C Hub (17ef:721e) based on the Realtek RTL8153B chip used to
use the cdc_ether driver. However, using this driver, with the system
suspended the device constantly sends pause-frames as soon as the
receive buffer fills up. This causes issues with other devices, where
some Ethernet switches stop forwarding packets altogether.
Using the Realtek driver (r8152) fixes this issue. Pause frames are no
longer sent while the host system is suspended.

What happens is that devlink_port_unregister emits a netlink

getting unregistered with the ifindex of its corresponding net_device.
Only trouble is, the net_device has already been unregistered.
It looks like we can stub out the search for a corresponding net_device
if we clear the devlink_port's type. This looks like a bit of a hack,
but also seems to be the reason why the devlink_port_type_clear function
exists in the first place.

Currently the following happens when a DSA master driver unbinds while
there are DSA switches attached to it:
$ echo 0000:00:00.5 > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/mscc_felix/unbind

unbind_store+0xd0/0x100
Located at the above location is this WARN_ON:
/* Notifier chain MUST detach us all upper devices. */
WARN_ON(netdev_has_any_upper_dev(dev));
Other stacked interfaces, like VLAN, do indeed listen for
NETDEV_UNREGISTER on the real_dev and also unregister themselves at that
time, which is clearly the behavior that rollback_registered_many
expects. But DSA interfaces are not VLAN. They have backing hardware
(platform devices, PCI devices, MDIO, SPI etc) which have a life cycle
of their own and we can't just trigger an unregister from the DSA
framework when we receive a netdev notifier that the master unregisters.
Luckily, there is something we can do, and that is to inform the driver
core that we have a runtime dependency to the DSA master interface's
device, and create a device link where that is the supplier and we are
the consumer. Having this device link will make the DSA switch unbind
before the DSA master unbinds, which is enough to avoid the WARN_ON from
rollback_registered_many.
Note that even before the blamed commit, DSA did nothing intelligent
when the master interface got unregistered either. See the discussion
here:
https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20200505210253.20311-1-f.fainelli@gmail.com/
But this time, at least the WARN_ON is loud enough that the
upper_dev_link commit can be blamed.
The advantage with this approach vs dev_hold(master) in the attached
link is that the latter is not meant for long term reference counting.
With dev_hold, the only thing that will happen is that when the user
attempts an unbind of the DSA master, netdev_wait_allrefs will keep
waiting and waiting, due to DSA keeping the refcount forever. DSA would
not access freed memory corresponding to the master interface, but the
unbind would still result in a freeze. Whereas with device links,
graceful teardown is ensured. It even works with cascaded DSA trees.
$ echo 0000:00:00.2 > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/fsl_enetc/unbind
[ 1818.797546] device swp0 left promiscuous mode
[ 1819.301112] sja1105 spi2.0: Link is Down
[ 1819.307981] DSA: tree 1 torn down
[ 1819.312408] device eno2 left promiscuous mode
[ 1819.656803] mscc_felix 0000:00:00.5: Link is Down
[ 1819.667194] DSA: tree 0 torn down
[ 1819.711557] fsl_enetc 0000:00:00.2 eno2: Link is Down
This approach allows us to keep the DSA framework absolutely unchanged,
and the driver core will just know to unbind us first when the master
goes away - as opposed to the large (and probably impossible) rework
required if attempting to listen for NETDEV_UNREGISTER.
As per the documentation at Documentation/driver-api/device_link.rst,
specifying the DL_FLAG_AUTOREMOVE_CONSUMER flag causes the device link
to be automatically purged when the consumer fails to probe or later
unbinds. So we don't need to keep the consumer_link variable in struct
dsa_switch.

In commit 826f328e2b7e ("net: dcb: Validate netlink message in DCB
handler"), Linux started rejecting RTM_GETDCB netlink messages if they
contained a set-like DCB_CMD_ command.
The reason was that privileges were only verified for RTM_SETDCB messages,
but the value that determined the action to be taken is the command, not
the message type. And validation of message type against the DCB command
was the obvious missing piece.
Unfortunately it turns out that mlnx_qos, a somewhat widely deployed tool
for configuration of DCB, accesses the DCB set-like APIs through
RTM_GETDCB.
Therefore do not bounce the discrepancy between message type and command.
Instead, in addition to validating privileges based on the actual message
type, validate them also based on the expected message type. This closes
the loophole of allowing DCB configuration on non-admin accounts, while
maintaining backward compatibility.

esp(6)_output_head uses skb_page_frag_refill to allocate a buffer for
the esp trailer.
It accesses the page with kmap_atomic to handle highmem. But
skb_page_frag_refill can return compound pages, of which
kmap_atomic only maps the first underlying page.
skb_page_frag_refill does not return highmem, because flag
__GFP_HIGHMEM is not set. ESP uses it in the same manner as TCP.
That also does not call kmap_atomic, but directly uses page_address,
in skb_copy_to_page_nocache. Do the same for ESP.
This issue has become easier to trigger with recent kmap local
debugging feature CONFIG_DEBUG_KMAP_LOCAL_FORCE_MAP.

skb_seq_read iterates over an skb, returning pointer and length of
the next data range with each call.
It relies on kmap_atomic to access highmem pages when needed.
An skb frag may be backed by a compound page, but kmap_atomic maps
only a single page. There are not enough kmap slots to always map all
pages concurrently.
Instead, if kmap_atomic is needed, iterate over each page.
As this increases the number of calls, avoid this unless needed.
The necessary condition is captured in skb_frag_must_loop.
I tried to make the change as obvious as possible. It should be easy
to verify that nothing changes if skb_frag_must_loop returns false.
Tested:
On an x86 platform with
CONFIG_HIGHMEM=y
CONFIG_DEBUG_KMAP_LOCAL_FORCE_MAP=y
CONFIG_NETFILTER_XT_MATCH_STRING=y

Skb frags may be backed by highmem and/or compound pages. Highmem
pages need kmap_atomic mappings to access. But kmap_atomic maps a
single page, not the entire compound page.
skb_foreach_page iterates over an skb frag, in one step in the common
case, page by page only if kmap_atomic must be called for each page.
The decision logic is captured in skb_frag_must_loop.
CONFIG_DEBUG_KMAP_LOCAL_FORCE_MAP extends kmap from highmem to all
pages, to increase code coverage.
Extend skb_frag_must_loop to this new condition.

The old way of changing the conntrack hashsize runtime was through changing
the module param via file /sys/module/nf_conntrack/parameters/hashsize. This
was extended to sysctl change in commit 3183ab8997a4 ("netfilter: conntrack:
allow increasing bucket size via sysctl too").
The commit introduced second "user" variable nf_conntrack_htable_size_user
which shadow actual variable nf_conntrack_htable_size. When hashsize is
changed via module param this "user" variable isn't updated. This results in
sysctl net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_buckets shows the wrong value when users
update via the old way.
This patch fix the issue by always updating "user" variable when reading the
proc file. This will take care of changes to the actual variable without
sysctl need to be aware.

mlxsw: core: Thermal control fixes
This series includes two fixes for thermal control in mlxsw.
Patch #1 validates that the alarm temperature threshold read from a
transceiver is above the warning temperature threshold. If not, the
current thresholds are maintained. It was observed that some transceiver
might be unreliable and sometimes report a too low alarm temperature
threshold which would result in thermal shutdown of the system.
Patch #2 increases the temperature threshold above which thermal
shutdown is triggered for the ASIC thermal zone. It is currently too low
and might result in thermal shutdown under perfectly fine operational
conditions.

Increase critical threshold for ASIC thermal zone from 110C to 140C
according to the system hardware requirements. All the supported ASICs
(Spectrum-1, Spectrum-2, Spectrum-3) could be still operational with ASIC
temperature below 140C. With the old critical threshold value system
can perform unjustified shutdown.
All the systems equipped with the above ASICs implement thermal
protection mechanism at firmware level and firmware could decide to
perform system thermal shutdown in case the temperature is below 140C.
So with the new threshold system will not meltdown, while thermal
operating range will be aligned with hardware abilities.

Validate thresholds to avoid a single failure due to some transceiver
unreliability. Ignore the last readouts in case warning temperature is
above alarm temperature, since it can cause unexpected thermal
shutdown. Stay with the previous values and refresh threshold within
the next iteration.
This is a rare scenario, but it was observed at a customer site.

There are cases where GSO segment's length exceeds the egress MTU:
- Forwarding of a TCP GRO skb, when DF flag is not set.
- Forwarding of an skb that arrived on a virtualisation interface
(virtio-net/vhost/tap) with TSO/GSO size set by other network
stack.
- Local GSO skb transmitted on an NETIF_F_TSO tunnel stacked over an
interface with a smaller MTU.
- Arriving GRO skb (or GSO skb in a virtualised environment) that is
bridged to a NETIF_F_TSO tunnel stacked over an interface with an
insufficient MTU.
If so:
- Consume the SKB and its segments.
- Issue an ICMP packet with 'Packet Too Big' message containing the
MTU, allowing the source host to reduce its Path MTU appropriately.
Note: These cases are handled in the same manner in IPv4 output finish.
This patch aligns the behavior of IPv6 and the one of IPv4.

For all PCI functions on the netxen_nic adapter, interrupt
mode (INTx or MSI) configuration is dependent on what has
been configured by the PCI function zero in the shared
interrupt register, as these adapters do not support mixed
mode interrupts among the functions of a given adapter.
Logic for setting MSI/MSI-x interrupt mode in the shared interrupt
register based on PCI function id zero check is not appropriate for
all family of netxen adapters, as for some of the netxen family
adapters PCI function zero is not really meant to be probed/loaded
in the host but rather just act as a management function on the device,
which caused all the other PCI functions on the adapter to always use
legacy interrupt (INTx) mode instead of choosing MSI/MSI-x interrupt mode.
This patch replaces that check with port number so that for all
type of adapters driver attempts for MSI/MSI-x interrupt modes.

====================
net: fix issues around register_netdevice() failures
This series attempts to clean up the life cycle of struct
net_device. Dave has added dev->needs_free_netdev in the
past to fix double frees, we can lean on that mechanism
a little more to fix remaining issues with register_netdevice().
This is the next chapter of the saga which already includes:
commit 0e0eee2465df ("net: correct error path in rtnl_newlink()")
commit e51fb152318e ("rtnetlink: fix a memory leak when ->newlink fails")
commit cf124db566e6 ("net: Fix inconsistent teardown and release of private netdev state.")
commit 93ee31f14f6f ("[NET]: Fix free_netdev on register_netdev failure.")
commit 814152a89ed5 ("net: fix memleak in register_netdevice()")
commit 10cc514f451a ("net: Fix null de-reference of device refcount")
The immediate problem which gets fixed here is that calling
free_netdev() right after unregister_netdevice() is illegal
because we need to release rtnl_lock first, to let the
unregistration finish. Note that unregister_netdevice() is
just a wrapper of unregister_netdevice_queue(), it only
does half of the job.
Where this limitation becomes most problematic is in failure
modes of register_netdevice(). There is a notifier call right
at the end of it, which lets other subsystems veto the entire
thing. At which point we should really go through a full
unregister_netdevice(), but we can't because callers may
go straight to free_netdev() after the failure, and that's
no bueno (see the previous paragraph).
This set makes free_netdev() more lenient, when device
is still being unregistered free_netdev() will simply set
dev->needs_free_netdev and let the unregister process do
the freeing.
With the free_netdev() problem out of the way failures in
register_netdevice() can make use of net_todo, again.
Users are still expected to call free_netdev() right after
failure but that will only set dev->needs_free_netdev.
To prevent the pathological case of:
dev->needs_free_netdev = true;
if (register_netdevice(dev)) {
rtnl_unlock();
free_netdev(dev);
}
make register_netdevice()'s failure clear dev->needs_free_netdev.
Problems described above are only present with register_netdevice() /
unregister_netdevice(). We have two parallel APIs for registration
of devices:
- those called outside rtnl_lock (register_netdev(), and
unregister_netdev());
- and those to be used under rtnl_lock - register_netdevice()
and unregister_netdevice().
The former is trivial and has no problems. The alternative
approach to fix the latter would be to also separate the
freeing functions - i.e. add free_netdevice(). This has been
implemented (incl. converting all relevant calls in the tree)
but it feels a little unnecessary to put the burden of choosing
the right free_netdev{,ice}() call on the programmer when we
can "just do the right thing" by default.

If register_netdevice() fails at the very last stage - the
notifier call - some subsystems may have already seen it and
grabbed a reference. struct net_device can't be freed right
away without calling netdev_wait_all_refs().
Now that we have a clean interface in form of dev->needs_free_netdev
and lenient free_netdev() we can undo what commit 93ee31f14f6f ("[NET]:
Fix free_netdev on register_netdev failure.") has done and complete
the unregistration path by bringing the net_set_todo() call back.
After registration fails user is still expected to explicitly
free the net_device, so make sure ->needs_free_netdev is cleared,
otherwise rolling back the registration will cause the old double
free for callers who release rtnl_lock before the free.
This also solves the problem of priv_destructor not being called
on notifier error.
net_set_todo() will be moved back into unregister_netdevice_queue()
in a follow up.

There are two flavors of handling netdev registration:
- ones called without holding rtnl_lock: register_netdev() and
unregister_netdev(); and
- those called with rtnl_lock held: register_netdevice() and
unregister_netdevice().
While the semantics of the former are pretty clear, the same can't
be said about the latter. The netdev_todo mechanism is utilized to
perform some of the device unregistering tasks and it hooks into
rtnl_unlock() so the locked variants can't actually finish the work.
In general free_netdev() does not mix well with locked calls. Most
drivers operating under rtnl_lock set dev->needs_free_netdev to true
and expect core to make the free_netdev() call some time later.
The part where this becomes most problematic is error paths. There is
no way to unwind the state cleanly after a call to register_netdevice(),
since unreg can't be performed fully without dropping locks.
Make free_netdev() more lenient, and defer the freeing if device
is being unregistered. This allows error paths to simply call
free_netdev() both after register_netdevice() failed, and after
a call to unregister_netdevice() but before dropping rtnl_lock.
Simplify the error paths which are currently doing gymnastics
around free_netdev() handling.

When setting up a channel bridge, ppp_bridge_channels sets the
pch->bridge field before taking the associated reference on the bridge
file instance.
This opens up a refcount underflow bug if ppp_bridge_channels called
via. iotcl runs concurrently with ppp_unbridge_channels executing via.
file release.
The bug is triggered by ppp_bridge_channels taking the error path
through the 'err_unset' label. In this scenario, pch->bridge is set,
but the reference on the bridged channel will not be taken because
the function errors out. If ppp_unbridge_channels observes pch->bridge
before it is unset by the error path, it will erroneously drop the
reference on the bridged channel and cause a refcount underflow.
To avoid this, ensure that ppp_bridge_channels holds a reference on
each channel in advance of setting the bridge pointers.

skbs in fraglist could be shared by a BPF filter loaded at TC. If TC
writes, it will call skb_ensure_writable -> pskb_expand_head to create
a private linear section for the head_skb. And then call
skb_clone_fraglist -> skb_get on each skb in the fraglist.
skb_segment_list overwrites part of the skb linear section of each
fragment itself. Even after skb_clone, the frag_skbs share their
linear section with their clone in PF_PACKET.
Both sk_receive_queue of PF_PACKET and PF_INET (or PF_INET6) can have
a link for the same frag_skbs chain. If a new skb (not frags) is
queued to one of the sk_receive_queue, multiple ptypes can see and
release this. It causes use-after-free.

At the moment it is quite hard to identify the network interface
provided by IPA in userspace components: The network interface is
created as virtual device, without any link to the IPA device.
The interface name ("rmnet_ipa%d") is the only indication that the
network interface belongs to IPA, but this is not very reliable.
Add SET_NETDEV_DEV() to associate the network interface with the
IPA parent device. This allows userspace services like ModemManager
to properly identify that this network interface is provided by IPA
and belongs to the modem.

The kernel test robot reported a -5.8% performance regression on the
"poll2" test of will-it-scale, and bisected it to commit d55564cfc222
("x86: Make __put_user() generate an out-of-line call").
I didn't expect an out-of-line __put_user() to matter, because no normal
core code should use that non-checking legacy version of user access any
more. But I had overlooked the very odd poll() usage, which does a
__put_user() to update the 'revents' values of the poll array.
Now, Al Viro correctly points out that instead of updating just the
'revents' field, it would be much simpler to just copy the _whole_
pollfd entry, and then we could just use "copy_to_user()" on the whole
array of entries, the same way we use "copy_from_user()" a few lines
earlier to get the original values.
But that is not what we've traditionally done, and I worry that threaded
applications might be concurrently modifying the other fields of the
pollfd array. So while Al's suggestion is simpler - and perhaps worth
trying in the future - this instead keeps the "just update revents"
model.
To fix the performance regression, use the modern "unsafe_put_user()"
instead of __put_user(), with the proper "user_write_access_begin()"
guarding in place. This improves code generation enormously.

This reverts commit 757055ae8dedf5333af17b3b5b4b70ba9bc9da4e.
The commit caused that ttynull was used as the default console
on several systems[1][2][3]. As a result, the console was
blank even when a better alternative existed.
It happened when there was no console configured
on the command line and ttynull_init() was the first initcall
calling register_console().
Or it happened when /dev/ did not exist when console_on_rootfs()
was called. It was not able to open /dev/console even though
a console driver was registered. It tried to add ttynull console
but it obviously did not help. But ttynull became the preferred
console and was used by /dev/console when it was available later.
The commit tried to fix a historical problem that have been there
for ages. The primary motivation was the commit 3cffa06aeef7ece30f6
("printk/console: Allow to disable console output by using console=""
or console=null"). It provided a clean solution for a workaround
that was widely used and worked only by chance.
This revert causes that the console="" or console=null command line
options will again work only by chance. These options will cause that
a particular console will be preferred and the default (tty) ones
will not get enabled. There will be no console registered at
all. As a result there won't be stdin, stdout, and stderr for
the init process. But it worked exactly this way even before.
The proper solution has to fulfill many conditions:
+ Register ttynull only when explicitly required or as
the ultimate fallback.
+ ttynull should get associated with /dev/console but it must
not become preferred console when used as a fallback.
Especially, it must still be possible to replace it
by a better console later.
Such a change requires clean up of the register_console() code.
Otherwise, it would be even harder to follow. Especially, the use
of has_preferred_console and CON_CONSDEV flag is tricky. The clean
up is risky. The ordering of consoles is not well defined. And
any changes tend to break existing user settings.
Do the revert at the least risky solution for now.
