commit 7da11ba5c5066dadc2e96835a6233d56d7b7764a upstream.

Prior to echoing a successfully transmitted CAN frame (by calling
can_get_echo_skb()), CAN drivers have to put the CAN frame (by calling
can_put_echo_skb() in the transmit function). These put and get function
take an index as parameter, which is used to identify the CAN frame.

A driver calling can_get_echo_skb() with a index not pointing to a skb
is a BUG, so add an appropriate error message.

commit e7a6994d043a1e31d5b17706a22ce33d2a3e4cdc upstream.

If the "struct can_priv::echo_skb" is accessed out of bounds would lead
to a kernel crash. Better print a sensible warning message instead and
try to recover.

commit 200f5c49f7a2cd694436bfc6cb0662b794c96736 upstream.

This patch replaces the use of "struct can_frame::can_dlc" by "struct
canfd_frame::len" to access the frame's length. As it is ensured that
both structures have a compatible memory layout for this member this is
no functional change. Futher, this compatibility is documented in a
comment.

This patch factors out all non sending parts of can_get_echo_skb() into

<content type='text'>
A timer was used to restart after the bus-off state, leading to a
relatively large can_restart() executed in an interrupt context,
which in turn sets up pinctrl. When this happens during system boot,
there is a high probability of grabbing the pinctrl_list_mutex,
which is locked already by the probe() of other device, making the
kernel suspect a deadlock condition [1].

To resolve this issue, the restart_timer is replaced by a delayed
work.

For 'real' hardware CAN devices the netlink interface is used to set CAN
specific communication parameters. Real CAN hardware can not be created nor
removed with the ip tool ...

This patch adds a private dellink function for the CAN device driver interface
that does just nothing.

It's a follow up to commit 993e6f2fd ("can: fix oops caused by wrong rtnl
newlink usage") but for dellink.

With upstream commit bb208f144cf3f59 (can: fix handling of unmodifiable
configuration options) a new can_validate() function was introduced.

When invoking 'ip link set can0 type can' without any configuration data
can_validate() tries to validate the content without taking into account that
there's totally no content. This patch adds a check for missing content.

<content type='text'>
This patch optimizes the calculation of the sample point. To understand what it
does have a look at the original implementation.

If there is a combination of timing parameters where both the bitrate and
sample point error are 0 the current implementation will find it.

However if the reference clock doesn't allow an optimal bitrate (this means the
bitrate error is always != 0) there might be several timing parameter
combinations having the same bitrate error. The original implementation will
allways choose the one with the highest brp. The actual sample point error
isn't taken into account.

This patch changes the algorithm to minimize the sample point error, too. Now a
brp/tseg combination is accepted as better if one of these condition are
fulfilled:
1) the bit rate error must be smaller, or
2) the bit rate error must be equal and
   the sample point error must be equal or smaller

If a smaller bit rate error is found the sample point error is reset. This
ensures that we first optimize for small bit rate error and then for small
sample point errors.

As described in 'can: m_can: tag current CAN FD controllers as non-ISO'
(6cfda7fbebe) it is possible to define fixed configuration options by
setting the according bit in 'ctrlmode' and clear it in 'ctrlmode_supported'.
This leads to the incovenience that the fixed configuration bits can not be
passed by netlink even when they have the correct values (e.g. non-ISO, FD).

This patch fixes that issue and not only allows fixed set bit values to be set
again but now requires(!) to provide these fixed values at configuration time.
A valid CAN FD configuration consists of a nominal/arbitration bittiming, a
data bittiming and a control mode with CAN_CTRLMODE_FD set - which is now
enforced by a new can_validate() function. This fix additionally removed the
inconsistency that was prohibiting the support of 'CANFD-only' controller
drivers, like the RCar CAN FD.

For this reason a new helper can_set_static_ctrlmode() has been introduced to
provide a proper interface to handle static enabled CAN controller options.
