commit 8354491c9d5b06709384cea91d13019bf5e61449 upstream.

Since commit 71ce391dfb784 ("net: mvpp2: enable proper per-CPU TX
buffers unmapping"), we are not correctly DMA unmapping TX buffers for
fragments.

Indeed, the mvpp2_txq_inc_put() function only stores in the
txq_cpu-&gt;tx_buffs[] array the physical address of the buffer to be
DMA-unmapped when skb != NULL. In addition, when DMA-unmapping, we use
skb_headlen(skb) to get the size to be unmapped. Both of this works fine
for TX descriptors that are associated directly to a SKB, but not the
ones that are used for fragments, with a NULL pointer as skb:

 - We have a NULL physical address when calling DMA unmap
 - skb_headlen(skb) crashes because skb is NULL

This causes random crashes when fragments are used.

To solve this problem, we need to:

 - Store the physical address of the buffer to be unmapped
   unconditionally, regardless of whether it is tied to a SKB or not.

 - Store the length of the buffer to be unmapped, which requires a new
   field.

Instead of adding a third array to store the length of the buffer to be
unmapped, and as suggested by David Miller, this commit refactors the
tx_buffs[] and tx_skb[] arrays of 'struct mvpp2_txq_pcpu' into a
separate structure 'mvpp2_txq_pcpu_buf', to which a 'size' field is
added. Therefore, instead of having three arrays to allocate/free, we
have a single one, which also improve data locality, reducing the
impact on the CPU cache.

[ Upstream commit 33d446dbba4d4d6a77e1e900d434fa99e0f02c86 ]

When streaming a lot of data and the RZ/A1 can't keep up, some status bits
will get set that are not being checked or cleared which cause the
following messages and the Ethernet driver to stop working. This
patch fixes that issue.

irq 21: nobody cared (try booting with the "irqpoll" option)

__bcmgenet_tx_reclaim() and bcmgenet_free_rx_buffers() are not using the
same struct device during unmap that was used for the map operation,
which makes DMA-API debugging warn about it. Fix this by always using

<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit a0b44eea372b449ef9744fb1d90491cc063289b8 ]

On macb only (not gem), when a RX queue corruption was detected from
macb_rx(), the RX queue was reset: during this process the RX ring
buffer descriptor was initialized by macb_init_rx_ring() but we forgot
to also set bp-&gt;rx_tail to 0.

Indeed, when processing the received frames, bp-&gt;rx_tail provides the
macb driver with the index in the RX ring buffer of the next buffer to
process. So when the whole ring buffer is reset we must also reset
bp-&gt;rx_tail so the driver is synchronized again with the hardware.

Since macb_init_rx_ring() is called from many locations, currently from
macb_rx() and macb_init_rings(), we'd rather add the "bp-&gt;rx_tail = 0;"
line inside macb_init_rx_ring() than add the very same line after each
call of this function.

Without this fix, the rx queue is not reset properly to recover from
queue corruption and connection drop may occur.

[ Upstream commit 06ba3b2133dc203e1e9bc36cee7f0839b79a9e8b ]

The sky2 frequently crashes during machine shutdown with:

kthread+0xdc/0xf0

This is caused by the sky2 being called after it has been shutdown.
A previous thread about this can be found here:

https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/4/12/410

An alternative fix is to assure that IFF_UP gets cleared by
calling dev_close() during shutdown. This is similar to what the
bnx2/tg3/xgene and maybe others are doing to assure that the driver
isn't being called following _shutdown().

Commit 52f95bbfcf72 ("stmmac: fix adjust link call in case of a switch
is attached") added some logic to avoid polling the fixed PHY and
therefore invoking the adjust_link callback more than once, since this
is a fixed PHY and link events won't be generated.

This works fine the first time, because we start with phydev-&gt;irq =
PHY_POLL, so we call adjust_link, then we set phydev-&gt;irq =
PHY_IGNORE_INTERRUPT and we stop polling the PHY.

Now, if we called ndo_close(), which calls both phy_stop() and does an
explicit netif_carrier_off(), we end up with a link down. Upon calling
ndo_open() again, despite starting the PHY state machine, we have
PHY_IGNORE_INTERRUPT set, and we generate no link event at all, so the
link is permanently down.

[ Upstream commit 5d0d4b91bf627f14f95167b738d524156c9d440b ]

This reverts commit 3e1be7ad2d38c6bd6aeef96df9bd0a7822f4e51c.

When people build bnx2 driver into kernel, it will fail to detect
and load firmware because firmware is contained in initramfs and
initramfs has not been uncompressed yet during do_initcalls. So
revert commit 3e1be7a and work out a new way in the later patch.

[ Upstream commit 5d0d4b91bf627f14f95167b738d524156c9d440b ]

This reverts commit 3e1be7ad2d38c6bd6aeef96df9bd0a7822f4e51c.

When people build bnx2 driver into kernel, it will fail to detect
and load firmware because firmware is contained in initramfs and
initramfs has not been uncompressed yet during do_initcalls. So
revert commit 3e1be7a and work out a new way in the later patch.

[ Upstream commit 42cdb338f40a98e6558bae35456fe86b6e90e1ef ]

The device's neighbour table is periodically dumped in order to update
the kernel about active neighbours. A single dump session may span
multiple queries, until the response carries less records than requested
or when a record (can contain up to four neighbour entries) is not full.
Current code stops the session when the number of returned records is
zero, which can result in infinite loop in case of high packet rate.

Fix this by stopping the session according to the above logic.

<title>mlxsw: spectrum: Fix refcount bug on span entries</title>

[ Upstream commit 2d644d4c7506646f9c4a2afceb7fd5f030bc0c9f ]

When binding port to a newly created span entry, its refcount is
initialized to zero even though it has a bound port. That leads
to unexpected behaviour when the user tries to delete that port
from the span entry.

Fix this by initializing the reference count to 1.

Also add a warning to put function.
