[ Upstream commit f154be241d22298d2b63c9b613f619fa1086ea75 ]

Commit 448b4482c671 ("net: dsa: Add lockdep class to tx queues to avoid
lockdep splat") removed the netif_device_detach() call done in
dsa_slave_suspend() which is necessary, and paired with a corresponding
netif_device_attach(), bring it back.

[ Upstream commit 0fb44559ffd67de8517098b81f675fa0210f13f0 ]

Dmitry reported a deadlock scenario:

unix_bind() path:
u-&gt;bindlock ==&gt; sb_writer

do_splice() path:
sb_writer ==&gt; pipe-&gt;mutex ==&gt; u-&gt;bindlock

In the unix_bind() code path, unix_mknod() does not have to
be done with u-&gt;bindlock held, since it is a pure fs operation,
so we can just move unix_mknod() out.

<title>tcp: initialize max window for a new fastopen socket</title>

[ Upstream commit 0dbd7ff3ac5017a46033a9d0a87a8267d69119d9 ]

Found that if we run LTP netstress test with large MSS (65K),
the first attempt from server to send data comparable to this
MSS on fastopen connection will be delayed by the probe timer.

Here is an example:

     &lt; S  seq 0:0 win 43690 options [mss 65495 wscale 7 tfo cookie] length 32
     &gt; S. seq 0:0 ack 1 win 43690 options [mss 65495 wscale 7] length 0
     &lt; .  ack 1 win 342 length 0

Inside tcp_sendmsg(), tcp_send_mss() returns max MSS in 'mss_now',
as well as in 'size_goal'. This results the segment not queued for
transmition until all the data copied from user buffer. Then, inside
__tcp_push_pending_frames(), it breaks on send window test and
continues with the check probe timer.

Fragmentation occurs in tcp_write_wakeup()...

+0.2 &gt; P. seq 1:43777 ack 1 win 342 length 43776
     &lt; .  ack 43777, win 1365 length 0
     &gt; P. seq 43777:65001 ack 1 win 342 options [...] length 21224
     ...

This also contradicts with the fact that we should bound to the half
of the window if it is large.

Fix this flaw by correctly initializing max_window. Before that, it
could have large values that affect further calculations of 'size_goal'.

netdevice notifiers with RCU read-side lock"), it is unnecessary
to make addrconf_disable_change() use RCU iteration over the

Illegal context switch in RCU read-side critical section.

Commit a1cba5613edf ("net: phy: Add Broadcom phy library for common
interfaces") make the BCM63xx PHY driver utilize bcm_phy_config_intr()
which would appear to do the right thing, except that it does not write
to the MII_BCM63XX_IR register but to MII_BCM54XX_ECR which is
different.

This would be causing invalid link parameters and events from being
generated by the PHY interrupt.

[ Upstream commit 7be2c82cfd5d28d7adb66821a992604eb6dd112e ]

Ashizuka reported a highmem oddity and sent a patch for freescale
fec driver.

But the problem root cause is that core networking stack
must ensure no skb with highmem fragment is ever sent through
a device that does not assert NETIF_F_HIGHDMA in its features.

We need to call illegal_highdma() from harmonize_features()
regardless of CSUM checks.

Ashizuka reported a highmem oddity and sent a patch for freescale
fec driver.

But the problem root cause is that core networking stack
must ensure no skb with highmem fragment is ever sent through
a device that does not assert NETIF_F_HIGHDMA in its features.

We need to call illegal_highdma() from harmonize_features()
regardless of CSUM checks.

Fixes: ec5f06156423 ("net: Kill link between CSUM and SG features.")
