Some drivers handle rx buffer reordering internally (and by extension
handle also the rx ba session timer internally), but do not ofload the
addba/delba negotiation.
Add an api for these drivers to properly tear-down the ba session,
including sending a delba.

When we start an Rx A-MPDU session, we first get the AddBA
request, then we send an ADD_STA command to the firmware
that will reply with a BAID which is a hardware resource
that tracks the BA session.
This BAID will appear on each and every frame that we get
from the firwmare until the A-MPDU session is torn down.
In the Rx path, we look at this BAID to manage the
reordering buffer.
This flow is inherently racy since the hardware will start
to put the BAID in the frames it receives even if the
firmware hasn't sent the response to the ADD_STA command.
This basically means that the driver can get frames with
a valid BAID that it doesn't know yet.
When that happens, the driver used to WARN.
Fix this by simply not WARN in this case. When the driver
will know abou the BAID, it will initialise the relevant
states and the next frame with a valid BAID will refresh
them.

In AP mode, if a station is removed just as it is adding a new stream,
the queue in question will remain stopped and no more TX will happen
in this queue, leading to connection failures and other problems.
This is because under DQA, when tx is deferred because a queue needs
to be allocated, the mac queue for that TID is stopped until the new
stream is added. If at this point the station that this stream
belongs to is removed, all the deferred tx frames are purged, but the
mac queue is not restarted. As a result, all following tx on this
queue will not be transmitted.
Fix this by starting the relevant mac queues when the deferred tx
frames are purged.

skb_warn_bad_offload triggers a warning when an skb enters the GSO
stack at __skb_gso_segment that does not have CHECKSUM_PARTIAL
checksum offload set.
Commit b2504a5dbef3 ("net: reduce skb_warn_bad_offload() noise")
observed that SKB_GSO_DODGY producers can trigger the check and
that passing those packets through the GSO handlers will fix it
up. But, the software UFO handler will set ip_summed to
CHECKSUM_NONE.
When __skb_gso_segment is called from the receive path, this
triggers the warning again.
Make UFO set CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY instead of CHECKSUM_NONE. On
Tx these two are equivalent. On Rx, this better matches the
skb state (checksum computed), as CHECKSUM_NONE here means no
checksum computed.

qmi_wwan_disconnect is called twice when disconnecting devices with

the interface data to NULL for both interfaces to flag that the

Commit e5dadc65f9e0 ("ppp: Fix false xmit recursion detect with two ppp
devices") dropped the xmit_recursion counter incrementation in
ppp_channel_push() and relied on ppp_xmit_process() for this task.
But __ppp_channel_push() can also send packets directly (using the
.start_xmit() channel callback), in which case the xmit_recursion
counter isn't incremented anymore. If such packets get routed back to
the parent ppp unit, ppp_xmit_process() won't notice the recursion and
will call ppp_channel_push() on the same channel, effectively creating
the deadlock situation that the xmit_recursion mechanism was supposed
to prevent.
This patch re-introduces the xmit_recursion counter incrementation in
ppp_channel_push(). Since the xmit_recursion variable is now part of
the parent ppp unit, incrementation is skipped if the channel doesn't
have any. This is fine because only packets routed through the parent
unit may enter the channel recursively.
Finally, we have to ensure that pch->ppp is not going to be modified
while executing ppp_channel_push(). Instead of taking this lock only
while calling ppp_xmit_process(), we now have to hold it for the full
ppp_channel_push() execution. This respects the ppp locks ordering
which requires locking ->upl before ->downl.

In commit 7e3f2952eeb1 ("rds: don't let RDS shutdown a connection
while senders are present"), refilling the receive queue was removed
from rds_ib_recv(), along with the increment of
s_ib_rx_refill_from_thread.
Commit 73ce4317bf98 ("RDS: make sure we post recv buffers")
re-introduces filling the receive queue from rds_ib_recv(), but does
not add the statistics counter. rds_ib_recv() was later renamed to
rds_ib_recv_path().
This commit reintroduces the statistics counting of
s_ib_rx_refill_from_thread and s_ib_rx_refill_from_cq.

Now xt_tgchk_param par in ipt_init_target is a local varibale,
par.net is not initialized there. Later when xt_check_target
calls target's checkentry in which it may access par.net, it
would cause kernel panic.
Jaroslav found this panic when running:
# ip link add TestIface type dummy
# tc qd add dev TestIface ingress handle ffff:
# tc filter add dev TestIface parent ffff: u32 match u32 0 0 \
action xt -j CONNMARK --set-mark 4
This patch is to pass net param into ipt_init_target and set
par.net with it properly in there.
v1->v2:
As Wang Cong pointed, I missed ipt_net_id != xt_net_id, so fix
it by also passing net_id to __tcf_ipt_init.

In r5l_log_endio(), once log->io_list_lock is released, the io unit
may be accessed (or even freed) by other threads. Current code
doesn't handle the io_unit properly, which leads to potential race
conditions.
This patch solves this race condition by:
1. Add a pending_stripe count flush_payload. Multiple flush_payloads
are counted as only one pending_stripe. Flag has_flush_payload is
added to show whether the io unit has flush_payload;
2. In r5l_log_endio(), check flags has_null_flush and
has_flush_payload with log->io_list_lock held. After the lock
is released, this IO unit is only accessed when we know the
pending_stripe counter cannot be zeroed by other threads.

md_write_start() needs to clear the in_sync flag is it is set, or if
there might be a race with set_in_sync() such that the later will
set it very soon. In the later case it is sufficient to take the
spinlock to synchronize with set_in_sync(), and then set the flag
if needed.
The current test is incorrect.
It should be:
if "flag is set" or "race is possible"
"flag is set" is trivially "mddev->in_sync".
"race is possible" should be tested by "mddev->sync_checkers".
If sync_checkers is 0, then there can be no race. set_in_sync() will
wait in percpu_ref_switch_to_atomic_sync() for an RCU grace period,
and as md_write_start() holds the rcu_read_lock(), set_in_sync() will
be sure ot see the update to writes_pending.
If sync_checkers is > 0, there could be race. If md_write_start()
happened entirely between
if (!mddev->in_sync &&
percpu_ref_is_zero(&mddev->writes_pending)) {
and
mddev->in_sync = 1;
in set_in_sync(), then it would not see that is_sync had been set,
and set_in_sync() would not see that writes_pending had been
incremented.
This bug means that in_sync is sometimes not set when it should be.
Consequently there is a small chance that the array will be marked as
"clean" when in fact it is inconsistent.

If ->safemode == 1, md_check_recovery() will try to get the mddev lock
and perform various other checks.
If mddev->in_sync is zero, it will call set_in_sync, and clear
->safemode. However if mddev->in_sync is not zero, ->safemode will not
be cleared.
When md_check_recovery() drops the mddev lock, the thread is woken
up again. Normally it would just check if there was anything else to
do, find nothing, and go to sleep. However as ->safemode was not
cleared, it will take the mddev lock again, then wake itself up
when unlocking.
This results in an infinite loop, repeatedly calling
md_check_recovery(), which RCU or the soft-lockup detector
will eventually complain about.
Prior to commit 4ad23a976413 ("MD: use per-cpu counter for
writes_pending"), safemode would only be set to one when the
writes_pending counter reached zero, and would be cleared again
when writes_pending is incremented. Since that patch, safemode
is set more freely, but is not reliably cleared.
So in md_check_recovery() clear ->safemode before checking ->in_sync.

When building a kernel for the microMIPS ISA, ensure that the ISA bit
(ie. bit 0) in the entry address is set. Otherwise we may include an
entry address in images which bootloaders will jump to as MIPS32 code.
I originally tried using "objdump -f" to obtain the entry address, which
works for microMIPS but it always outputs a 32 bit address for a 32 bit
ELF whilst nm will sign extend to 64 bit. That matters for systems where
we might want to run a MIPS32 kernel on a MIPS64 CPU & load it with a
MIPS64 bootloader, which would then jump to a non-canonical
(non-sign-extended) address.
This works in all cases as it only changes the behaviour for microMIPS
kernels, but isn't the prettiest solution. A possible alternative would
be to write a custom tool to just extract, sign extend & print the entry
point of an ELF executable. I'm open to feedback if that would be
preferred.

We don't currently support the MT ASE for microMIPS kernels, and there
are no CPUs currently in existence that use both. They can however both
be enabled in Kconfig, resulting in build failures such as:
AS arch/mips/kernel/cps-vec.o

Currently, we use the opal call opal_slw_set_reg() to inform the
Sleep-Winkle Engine (SLW) to restore the contents of some of the
Hypervisor state on wakeup from deep idle states that lose full
hypervisor context (characterized by the flag
OPAL_PM_LOSE_FULL_CONTEXT).
However, the current code has a bug in that if opal_slw_set_reg()
fails, we don't disable the use of these deep states (winkle on
POWER8, stop4 onwards on POWER9).
This patch fixes this bug by ensuring that if programing the
sleep-winkle engine to restore the hypervisor states in
pnv_save_sprs_for_deep_states() fails, then we exclude such states by
clearing the OPAL_PM_LOSE_FULL_CONTEXT flag from
supported_cpuidle_states. As a result POWER8 will be prevented from
using winkle for CPU-Hotplug, and POWER9 will put the offlined CPUs to
the default stop state when available.
Further, we ensure in the initialization of the cpuidle-powernv driver
to only include those states whose flags are present in
supported_cpuidle_states, thereby skipping OPAL_PM_LOSE_FULL_CONTEXT
states when they have been disabled due to stop-api failure.

However if CMD12 is not issued at the correct timing, the card will

the MMC core will send MMC_SET_BLOCK_COUNT command before

Analysis of the logic of the ASIX driver (containing backported changes from
kernel.org up to kernel 4.8 approximately) suggested that the software could not
trigger skb_over_panic(). The analysis of the kernel BUG() crash information
suggested that the netdev buffer was written with 2 minimal 60 octet length
Ethernet frames (ASIX hardware drops the 4 octet FCS field) and the 2nd Ethernet
frame attempted to write off the end of the netdev buffer.
Note that the netdev buffer should only contain 1 Ethernet frame so if an
attempt to write 2 Ethernet frames into the buffer is made then that is wrong.
However, the logic of the asix_rx_fixup_internal() only allows 1 Ethernet frame
to be written into the netdev buffer.
Potentially this failure was due to memory corruption because it was only seen
once.
b) Two-off failures in the NAPI layer's backlog queue:
There were 2 crashes in the NAPI layer's backlog queue presumably after
asix_rx_fixup_internal() called usbnet_skb_return().

The embedded board was only using an ASIX USB to Ethernet adaptor eth0.
Analysis suggested that the doubly-linked list pointers of the backlog queue had
been corrupted because one of the link pointers was NULL.
Potentially this failure was due to memory corruption because it was only seen
twice.
Results of the ASIX driver code review
======================================
During the code review some weaknesses were observed in the ASIX driver and the
following patches have been created to improve the robustness.
Brief overview of the patches
-----------------------------
1. asix: Add rx->ax_skb = NULL after usbnet_skb_return()
The current ASIX driver sends the received Ethernet frame to the NAPI layer of
the network stack via the call to usbnet_skb_return() in
asix_rx_fixup_internal() but retains the rx->ax_skb pointer to the netdev
buffer. The driver no longer needs the rx->ax_skb pointer at this point because
the NAPI layer now has the Ethernet frame.
This means that asix_rx_fixup_internal() must not use rx->ax_skb after the call
to usbnet_skb_return() because it could corrupt the handling of the Ethernet
frame within the network layer.
Therefore, to remove the risk of erroneous usage of rx->ax_skb, set rx->ax_skb
to NULL after the call to usbnet_skb_return(). This avoids potential erroneous
freeing of rx->ax_skb and erroneous writing to the netdev buffer. If the
software now somehow inappropriately reused rx->ax_skb, then a NULL pointer
dereference of rx->ax_skb would occur which makes investigation easier.
2. asix: Ensure asix_rx_fixup_info members are all reset
This patch creates reset_asix_rx_fixup_info() to allow all the
asix_rx_fixup_info structure members to be consistently reset to initial
conditions.
Call reset_asix_rx_fixup_info() upon each detectable error condition so that the
next URB is processed from a known state.
Otherwise, there is a risk that some members of the asix_rx_fixup_info structure
may be incorrect after an error occurred so potentially leading to a
malfunction.
3. asix: Fix small memory leak in ax88772_unbind()
This patch creates asix_rx_fixup_common_free() to allow the rx->ax_skb to be
freed when necessary.
asix_rx_fixup_common_free() is called from ax88772_unbind() before the parent
private data structure is freed.
Without this patch, there is a risk of a small netdev buffer memory leak each
time ax88772_unbind() is called during the reception of an Ethernet frame that
spans across 2 URBs.
Testing
=======
The patches have been sanity tested on a 64-bit Linux laptop running kernel
4.13-rc2 with the 3 patches applied on top.
The ASIX USB to Adaptor used for testing was (output of lsusb):
ID 0b95:772b ASIX Electronics Corp. AX88772B
Test #1
-------
The test ran a flood ping test script which slowly incremented the ICMP Echo
Request's payload from 0 to 5000 octets. This eventually causes IPv4
fragmentation to occur which causes Ethernet frames to be sent very close to
each other so increases the probability that an Ethernet frame will span 2 URBs.
The test showed that all pings were successful. The test took about 15 minutes
to complete.
Test #2
-------
A script was run on the laptop to periodically run ifdown and ifup every second
so that the ASIX USB to Adaptor was up for 1 second and down for 1 second.
From a Linux PC connected to the laptop, the following ping command was used
ping -f -s 5000 <ip address of laptop>
The large ICMP payload causes IPv4 fragmentation resulting in multiple
Ethernet frames per original IP packet.
Kernel debug within the ASIX driver was enabled to see whether any ASIX errors
were generated. The test was run for about 24 hours and no ASIX errors were
seen.
Patches
=======
The 3 patches have been rebased off the net-next repo master branch with HEAD
fbbeefd net: fec: Allow reception of frames bigger than 1522 bytes
====================

When Ethernet frames span mulitple URBs, the netdev buffer memory
pointed to by the asix_rx_fixup_info structure remains allocated
during the time gap between the 2 executions of asix_rx_fixup_internal().
This means that if ax88772_unbind() is called within this time
gap to free the memory of the parent private data structure then
a memory leak of the part filled netdev buffer memory will occur.
Therefore, create a new function asix_rx_fixup_common_free() to
free the memory of the netdev buffer and add a call to
asix_rx_fixup_common_free() from inside ax88772_unbind().
Consequently when an unbind occurs part way through receiving
an Ethernet frame, the netdev buffer memory that is holding part
of the received Ethernet frame will now be freed.

There is a risk that the members of the structure asix_rx_fixup_info
become unsynchronised leading to the possibility of a malfunction.
For example, rx->split_head was not being set to false after an
error was detected so potentially could cause a malformed 32-bit
Data header word to be formed.
Therefore add function reset_asix_rx_fixup_info() to reset all the
members of asix_rx_fixup_info so that future processing will start
with known initial conditions.
Also, if (skb->len != offset) becomes true then call
reset_asix_rx_fixup_info() so that the processing of the next URB
starts with known initial conditions. Without the call, the check
does nothing which potentially could lead to a malfunction
when the next URB is processed.
In addition, for robustness, call reset_asix_rx_fixup_info() before
every error path's "return 0". This ensures that the next URB is
processed from known initial conditions.
