====================
net: stmmac: Disable EEE on i.MX

This small patch series fixes a long-standing interrupt storm issue with
stmmac on NXP i.MX platforms.

The initial attempt to fix^Wwork around the problem in DT ([1]) was
painfully but rightfully rejected by Russell, who helped me investigate
the issue in depth. It turned out that the root cause is a mistake in
how interrupts are wired in the SoC, a hardware bug that has been
replicated in all i.MX SoCs that integrate an stmmac. The only viable
solution is to disable EEE on those devices.

Individual patches explain the issue in more details. Patch 1/2,
authored by Russell, adds a new STMMAC_FLAG to disable EEE, and patch
2/2 sets the flag for i.MX platforms.

394863097e net: stmmac: imx: Disable EEE
The i.MX8MP suffers from an interrupt storm related to the stmmac and
EEE. A long and tedious analysis ([1]) concluded that the SoC wires the
stmmac lpi_intr_o signal to an OR gate along with the main dwmac
interrupts, which causes an interrupt storm for two reasons.

First, there's a race condition due to the interrupt deassertion being
synchronous to the RX clock domain:

- When the PHY exits LPI mode, it restarts generating the RX clock
  (clk_rx_i input signal to the GMAC).
- The MAC detects exit from LPI, and asserts lpi_intr_o. This triggers
  the ENET_EQOS interrupt.
- Before the CPU has time to process the interrupt, the PHY enters LPI
  mode again, and stops generating the RX clock.
- The CPU processes the interrupt and reads the GMAC4_LPI_CTRL_STATUS
  registers. This does not clear lpi_intr_o as there's no clk_rx_i.

An attempt was made to fixing the issue by not stopping RX_CLK in Rx LPI
state ([2]). This alleviates the symptoms but doesn't fix the issue.
Since lpi_intr_o takes four RX_CLK cycles to clear, an interrupt storm
can still occur during that window. In 1000T mode this is harder to
notice, but slower receive clocks cause hundreds to thousands of
spurious interrupts.

Fix the issue by disabling EEE completely on i.MX8MP.

187b00a266 net: stmmac: provide flag to disable EEE
Some platforms have problems when EEE is enabled, and thus need a way
to disable stmmac EEE support. Add a flag before the other LPI related
flags which tells stmmac to avoid populating the phylink LPI
capabilities, which causes phylink to call phy_disable_eee() for any
PHY that is attached to the affected phylink instance.

iMX8MP is an example - the lpi_intr_o signal is wired to an OR gate
along with the main dwmac interrupts. Since lpi_intr_o is synchronous
to the receive clock domain, and takes four clock cycles to clear, this
leads to interrupt storms as the interrupt remains asserted for some
time after the LPI control and status register is read.

This problem becomes worse when the receive clock from the PHY stops
when the receive path enters LPI state - which means that lpi_intr_o
can not deassert until the clock restarts. Since the LPI state of the
receive path depends on the link partner, this is out of our control.
We could disable RX clock stop at the PHY, but that doesn't get around
the slow-to-deassert lpi_intr_o mentioned in the above paragraph.

Previously, iMX8MP worked around this by disabling gigabit EEE, but
this is insufficient - the problem is also visible at 100M speeds,
where the receive clock is slower.

There is extensive discussion and investigation in the thread linked
below, the result of which is summarised in this commit message.

fb4b4a05ae net: mana: Use at least SZ_4K in doorbell ID range check
mana_gd_ring_doorbell() accesses offsets up to DOORBELL_OFFSET_EQ
(0xFF8) + 8 bytes = 4KB within each doorbell page. A db_page_size
smaller than SZ_4K is fundamentally incompatible with the driver:
doorbell pages would overlap and the device cannot function correctly.

Validate db_page_size at the source and fail the
probe early if the value is below SZ_4K. This ensures the doorbell ID
range check in mana_gd_register_device() can rely on db_page_size
being valid.

e4cf6087ca net: qrtr: fix endian handling of confirm_rx field
Convert confirm_rx to little endian when enqueueing and convert it back on
receive. This fixes control flow on big endian hosts, little endian is
unaffected.

On transmit, store confirm_rx as __le32 using cpu_to_le32(). On receive,
apply le32_to_cpu() before using the value. !! ensures the value is 0 or 1
in native endianness, so the conversion isn’t strictly required here, but
it is kept for consistency and clarity.

net: stmmac: remove unused and unimplemented AXI properties

commit afea03656a ("stmmac: rework DMA bus setting and introduce new
platform AXI structure") added support for parsing all the stmmac AXI
attributes, and added code to set most of the appropriate register bits
with three exceptions:

	snps,kbbe
	snps,mb
	snps,rb

These were parsed by the driver, but the result of parsing was never
used by any of the cores.

Moreover, no DTS in the kernel makes use of these properties.

Thus, it doesn't make sense for the driver to parse these, so let's
remove them. Also remove them from the DT binding document.

f8844dfeea virtio-net: enable NETIF_F_GRO_HW only if GRO-related offloads are supported
Negotiating VIRTIO_NET_F_CTRL_GUEST_OFFLOADS indicates the device
allows control over offload support, but the offloads that can be
controlled may have nothing to do with GRO (e.g., if neither GUEST_TSO4
nor GUEST_TSO6 is supported).

In such a setup, reporting NETIF_F_GRO_HW as available for the device
is too optimistic and misleading to the user.

Improve the situation by masking off NETIF_F_GRO_HW unless the device
possesses actual GRO-related offload capabilities. Out of an abundance
of caution, this does not change the current behaviour for hardware with
just v6 or just v4 GRO: current interfaces do not allow distinguishing
between v6/v4 GRO, so we can't expose them to userspace precisely.

fe3e54253f virtio_net: sync RX buffer before reading the header
receive_buf() reads the virtio header through buf before
page_pool_dma_sync_for_cpu() runs in receive_small() or
receive_mergeable(). The header buffer is thus unsynchronized at the
point where flags and, for mergeable buffers, num_buffers are consumed.

Omar Elghoul reported that on s390x Secure Execution this showed up as
greatly reduced virtio-net performance together with "bad gso" and
"bad csum" messages in dmesg. This is because with SE sync actually
copies data, so the header is uninitialized.

Move the sync into receive_buf() so the
header is synchronized before any access through buf.

"in drivers/net/virtio_net.c, move page_pool_dma_sync_for_cpu on receive

e1877cf623 net: mctp: avoid copy in fragmentation loop for near-MTU messages
Currently, we incorrectly send messages that are within 4 bytes (a
struct mctp_hdr) smaller than the MTU through mctp_do_fragment_route().
This has no effect on the actual fragmentation, as we will still send as
one packet, but unnecessarily copies the original skb into a new
single-fragment skb.

Instead of having the MTU comparisons in both mctp_local_output() and
mctp_do_fragment_route(), feed all local messages through the latter,
and add the single-packet optimisation there.

This means we can coalesce the routing path of mctp_local_output, so our
out_release path is now solely for errors, so rename the label
accordingly.

Include a check in the route tests for the single-packet case too.

====================
net: stmmac: dwmac-socfpga: Cleanup .fix_mac_speed

This small series does a bit of cleanup in the dwmad-socfpga glue
driver, especially around the .fix_mac_speed() operation.

It's mostly about re-using existing helpers from the glue driver, as
well as reorganizing the code to make the local private structures a
little bit smaller.

No functionnal changes are intended, this was tested on cyclone V.

9bd1af8537 net: stmmac: dwmac-sofcpga: Drop the struct device reference
We keep a reference to our the struct device in the socfpga_dwmac priv
structure, but now it's only ever used to produce logs in the
.set_phy_mode() ops, that are specific to this driver.

When we call that ops, we always have a ref to the struct device around,
so let's pass it to .set_phy_mode(). We can now discard that reference
from struct socfpga_dwmac.

We enable/disable the sgmii_adapter in the .fix_mac_speed() ops based on
the phy_mode used in the plat_data. We currently get it with :

socfpga_dwmac
  ->dev
    ->drv_data
      ->netdev
        ->priv
	  ->stmmac_priv
	    ->plat
	      ->phy_interface

where we can get it with :

socfpga_dwmac
  ->plat_data
    ->phy_interface (done by socfpga_get_plat_phymode)

Use that helper here.

Note that we are also being passed a phy_interface_t from the
.fix_mac_speed() callback, provided by phylink.

We can handle that in the future when dynamic interface selection is
supported. We'd need to guarantee that we have a Lynx PCS to handle it.

Add support for Nuvoton MA35D1 GMAC

This patch series is submitted to add GMAC support for Nuvoton MA35D1
SoC platform. This work involves implementing a GMAC driver glue layer
based on Synopsys DWMAC driver framework to leverage MA35D1's dual GMAC
interface capabilities.

Overview:
  1. Added a GMAC driver glue layer for MA35D1 SoC, providing support for
  the platform's two GMAC interfaces.
  2. Added device tree settings, with specific configurations for our
  development boards:
    a. SOM board: Configured for two RGMII interfaces.
    b. IoT board: Configured with one RGMII and one RMII interface.
  3. Added dt-bindings for the GMAC interfaces.

====================
Netfilter for net

This is v3, I kept back an ipset fix and another to tigthen the xtables
interface to reject invalid combinations with the NFPROTO_ARP family.
They need a bit more discussion. I fixed the issues reported by AI on
patch 9 (add #ifdef to access ct zone, update nf_conntrack_broadcast
and patch 10 (use better Fixes: tag). Thanks!

The following patchset contains Netfilter fixes for *net*.

Note that most bugs fixed here stem from 2.6 days, the large PR is not
due to an increase in regressions.

1) Fix incorrect reject of set updates with nf_tables pipapo set
   avx2 backend.  This comes with a regression test in patch 2.
   From Florian Westphal.

2) nfnetlink_log needs to zero padding to prevent infoleak to userspace,
   from Weiming Shi.

3) xtables ip6t_rt module never validated that addrnr length is within the
   allowed array boundary. Reject bogus values.  From Ren Wei.

4) Fix high memory usage in rbtree set backend that was unwanted side-effect
   of the recently added binary search blob. From Pablo Neira Ayuso.

5) Patches 5 to 10, also from Pablo, address long-standing RCU safety bugs
   in conntracks handling of expectations: We can never safely defer
   a conntrack extension area without holding a reference. Yet expectation
   handling does so in multiple places.  Fix this by avoiding the need to
   look into the master conntrack to begin with and by extending locked
   sections in a few places.

11) Fix use of uninitialized rtp_addr in the sip conntrack helper,
    also from Weiming Shi.

12) Add stricter netlink policy checks in ctnetlink, from David Carlier.
    This avoids undefined behaviour when userspace provides huge wscale
    value.

72d96e4e24 net: macb: use the current queue number for stats
There's a potential mismatch between the memory reserved for statistics
and the amount of memory written.

gem_get_sset_count() correctly computes the number of stats based on the
active queues, whereas gem_get_ethtool_stats() indiscriminately copies
data using the maximum number of queues, and in the case the number of
active queues is less than MACB_MAX_QUEUES, this results in a OOB write
as observed in the KASAN splat.

8f15b5071b netfilter: ctnetlink: use netlink policy range checks
Replace manual range and mask validations with netlink policy
annotations in ctnetlink code paths, so that the netlink core rejects
invalid values early and can generate extack errors.

- CTA_PROTOINFO_TCP_STATE: reject values > TCP_CONNTRACK_SYN_SENT2 at
  policy level, removing the manual >= TCP_CONNTRACK_MAX check.
- CTA_PROTOINFO_TCP_WSCALE_ORIGINAL/REPLY: reject values > TCP_MAX_WSCALE
  (14). The normal TCP option parsing path already clamps to this value,
  but the ctnetlink path accepted 0-255, causing undefined behavior when
  used as a u32 shift count.
- CTA_FILTER_ORIG_FLAGS/REPLY_FLAGS: use NLA_POLICY_MASK with
  CTA_FILTER_F_ALL, removing the manual mask checks.
- CTA_EXPECT_FLAGS: use NLA_POLICY_MASK with NF_CT_EXPECT_MASK, adding
  a new mask define grouping all valid expect flags.

Extracted from a broader nf-next patch by Florian Westphal, scoped to
ctnetlink for the fixes tree.

6a2b724460 netfilter: nf_conntrack_sip: fix use of uninitialized rtp_addr in process_sdp
process_sdp() declares union nf_inet_addr rtp_addr on the stack and
passes it to the nf_nat_sip sdp_session hook after walking the SDP
media descriptions. However rtp_addr is only initialized inside the
media loop when a recognized media type with a non-zero port is found.

If the SDP body contains no m= lines, only inactive media sections
(m=audio 0 ...) or only unrecognized media types, rtp_addr is never
assigned. Despite that, the function still calls hooks->sdp_session()
with &rtp_addr, causing nf_nat_sdp_session() to format the stale stack
value as an IP address and rewrite the SDP session owner and connection
lines with it.

With CONFIG_INIT_STACK_ALL_ZERO (default on most distributions) this
results in the session-level o= and c= addresses being rewritten to
0.0.0.0 for inactive SDP sessions. Without stack auto-init the
rewritten address is whatever happened to be on the stack.

Fix this by pre-initializing rtp_addr from the session-level connection
address (caddr) when available, and tracking via a have_rtp_addr flag
whether any valid address was established. Skip the sdp_session hook
entirely when no valid address exists.

__nf_ct_expect_find() and nf_ct_expect_find_get() are called under
rcu_read_lock() but they dereference the master conntrack via
exp->master.

Since the expectation does not hold a reference on the master conntrack,
this could be dying conntrack or different recycled conntrack than the
real master due to SLAB_TYPESAFE_RCU.

Store the netns, the master_tuple and the zone in struct
nf_conntrack_expect as a safety measure.

This patch is required by the follow up fix not to dump expectations
that do not belong to this netns.

bffcaad9af netfilter: ctnetlink: ensure safe access to master conntrack
Holding reference on the expectation is not sufficient, the master
conntrack object can just go away, making exp->master invalid.

To access exp->master safely:

- Grab the nf_conntrack_expect_lock, this gets serialized with
  clean_from_lists() which also holds this lock when the master
  conntrack goes away.

- Hold reference on master conntrack via nf_conntrack_find_get().
  Not so easy since the master tuple to look up for the master conntrack
  is not available in the existing problematic paths.

This patch goes for extending the nf_conntrack_expect_lock section
to address this issue for simplicity, in the cases that are described
below this is just slightly extending the lock section.

The add expectation command already holds a reference to the master
conntrack from ctnetlink_create_expect().

However, the delete expectation command needs to grab the spinlock
before looking up for the expectation. Expand the existing spinlock
section to address this to cover the expectation lookup. Note that,
the nf_ct_expect_iterate_net() calls already grabs the spinlock while
iterating over the expectation table, which is correct.

The get expectation command needs to grab the spinlock to ensure master
conntrack does not go away. This also expands the existing spinlock
section to cover the expectation lookup too. I needed to move the
netlink skb allocation out of the spinlock to keep it GFP_KERNEL.

For the expectation events, the IPEXP_DESTROY event is already delivered
under the spinlock, just move the delivery of IPEXP_NEW under the
spinlock too because the master conntrack event cache is reached through
exp->master.

While at it, add lockdep notations to help identify what codepaths need
to grab the spinlock.

f017941060 netfilter: nf_conntrack_expect: use expect->helper
Use expect->helper in ctnetlink and /proc to dump the helper name.
Using nfct_help() without holding a reference to the master conntrack
is unsafe.

Use exp->master->helper in ctnetlink path if userspace does not provide
an explicit helper when creating an expectation to retain the existing
behaviour. The ctnetlink expectation path holds the reference on the
master conntrack and nf_conntrack_expect lock and the nfnetlink glue
path refers to the master ct that is attached to the skb.

9c42bc9db9 netfilter: nf_conntrack_expect: honor expectation helper field
The expectation helper field is mostly unused. As a result, the
netfilter codebase relies on accessing the helper through exp->master.

Always set on the expectation helper field so it can be used to reach
the helper.

nf_ct_expect_init() is called from packet path where the skb owns
the ct object, therefore accessing exp->master for the newly created
expectation is safe. This saves a lot of updates in all callsites
to pass the ct object as parameter to nf_ct_expect_init().

This is a preparation patches for follow up fixes.
