[ Upstream commit 07841f9d94c11afe00c0498cf242edf4075729f4 ]

When system is out of memory, refilling of RX buffers fails while
the driver continue to pass the received packets to the kernel stack.
At some point, when all RX buffers deplete, driver may fall into a
sleep, and not recover when memory for new RX buffers is once again
availible. This is because hardware does not have valid descriptors,
so no interrupt will be generated for the driver to return to work
in napi context. Fix it by schedule the napi poll function from
stats_task delayed workqueue, as long as the allocations fail.

Commit 6559a7e8296002b4 ("cxgb4: Cleanup macros so they follow the same
style and look consistent") introduced a regression where reading MC1
memory in adapters where MC0 isn't present or MC0 size is not equal to MC1
size caused the adapter to crash due to incorrect computation of memoffset.
Fix is to read the size of MC0 instead of MC1 for offset calculation

<title>e1000: add dummy allocator to fix race condition between mtu change and netpoll</title>

commit 08e8331654d1d7b2c58045e549005bc356aa7810 upstream.

There is a race condition between e1000_change_mtu's cleanups and
netpoll, when we change the MTU across jumbo size:

Changing MTU frees all the rx buffers:
    e1000_change_mtu -&gt; e1000_down -&gt; e1000_clean_all_rx_rings -&gt;
        e1000_clean_rx_ring

Then, close to the end of e1000_change_mtu:
    pr_info -&gt; ... -&gt; netpoll_poll_dev -&gt; e1000_clean -&gt;
        e1000_clean_rx_irq -&gt; e1000_alloc_rx_buffers -&gt; e1000_alloc_frag

And when we come back to do the rest of the MTU change:
    e1000_up -&gt; e1000_configure -&gt; e1000_configure_rx -&gt;
        e1000_alloc_jumbo_rx_buffers

alloc_jumbo finds the buffers already != NULL, since data (shared with
page in e1000_rx_buffer-&gt;rxbuf) has been re-alloc'd, but it's garbage,
or at least not what is expected when in jumbo state.

This results in an unusable adapter (packets don't get through), and a
NULL pointer dereference on the next call to e1000_clean_rx_ring
(other mtu change, link down, shutdown):

BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at           (null)
IP: [&lt;ffffffff81194d6e&gt;] put_compound_page+0x7e/0x330

    [...]

 [&lt;ffffffff81663802&gt;] rtnetlink_rcv_msg+0x92/0x260

By setting the allocator to a dummy version, netpoll can't mess up our
rx buffers.  The allocator is set back to a sane value in
e1000_configure_rx.

mlx4_en_check_rxfh_func() was checking for hardware support before
setting a known RSS hash function, but didn't do any check before
setting unknown RSS hash function. Need to make it fail on such values.
In this occasion, moved the actual setting of the new value from the
check function into mlx4_en_set_rxfh().

[ Upstream commit 0e03fd3e335d272bee88fe733d5fd13f5c5b7140 ]

Commit 43d3ddf87a57 ("net: pxa168_eth: add device tree support") starts
to use managed resources by adding devm_clk_get() and
devm_ioremap_resource(), but it leaves explicit iounmap() and clock_put()
in pxa168_eth_remove() and in failure handling code of pxa168_eth_probe().
As a result double free can happen.

The patch removes explicit resource deallocation. Also it converts
clk_disable() to clk_disable_unprepare() to make it symmetrical with
clk_prepare_enable().

[ Upstream commit 074975d0374333f656c48487aa046a21a9b9d7a1 ]

Commit 9a2620c877454 ("bnx2x: prevent WARN during driver unload")
switched the napi/busy_lock locking mechanism from spin_lock() into
spin_lock_bh(), breaking inter-operability with netconsole, as netpoll
disables interrupts prior to calling our napi mechanism.

This switches the driver into using atomic assignments instead of the
spinlock mechanisms previously employed.

Based on initial patch from Yuval Mintz &amp; Ariel Elior

I basically added softirq starvation avoidance, and mixture
of atomic operations, plain writes and barriers.

Note this slightly reduces the overhead for this driver when no
busy_poll sockets are in use.

Commit 1daa4303b4ca ("net/mlx4_core: Deprecate error message at
ConnectX-2 cards startup to debug") did the deprecation only for port 1
of the card. Need to deprecate for port 2 as well.

[ Upstream commit e5eda89d97ec256ba14e7e861387cc0468259c18 ]

Netdevice registration should be performed a the end of the driver
initialization flow. If we don't do that, after calling register_netdevice,
device callbacks may be issued by higher layers of the stack before
final configuration of the device is done.

For example (VXLAN configuration race), mlx4_SET_PORT_VXLAN was issued
after the register_netdev command. System network scripts may configure
the interface (UP) right after the registration, which also attach
unicast VXLAN steering rule, before mlx4_SET_PORT_VXLAN was called,
causing the firmware to fail the rule attachment.
