commit 51f4e090b9f87b40c21b6daadb5c06e6c0a07b67 upstream.

The jumbo_frm() chain-mode implementation unconditionally computes

    len = nopaged_len - bmax;

where nopaged_len = skb_headlen(skb) (linear bytes only) and bmax is
BUF_SIZE_8KiB or BUF_SIZE_2KiB.  However, the caller stmmac_xmit()
decides to invoke jumbo_frm() based on skb-&gt;len (total length including
page fragments):

    is_jumbo = stmmac_is_jumbo_frm(priv, skb-&gt;len, enh_desc);

When a packet has a small linear portion (nopaged_len &lt;= bmax) but a
large total length due to page fragments (skb-&gt;len &gt; bmax), the
subtraction wraps as an unsigned integer, producing a huge len value
(~0xFFFFxxxx).  This causes the while (len != 0) loop to execute
hundreds of thousands of iterations, passing skb-&gt;data + bmax * i
pointers far beyond the skb buffer to dma_map_single().  On IOMMU-less
SoCs (the typical deployment for stmmac), this maps arbitrary kernel
memory to the DMA engine, constituting a kernel memory disclosure and
potential memory corruption from hardware.

Fix this by introducing a buf_len local variable clamped to
min(nopaged_len, bmax).  Computing len = nopaged_len - buf_len is then
always safe: it is zero when the linear portion fits within a single
descriptor, causing the while (len != 0) loop to be skipped naturally,
and the fragment loop in stmmac_xmit() handles page fragments afterward.

commit b76254c55dc8f23edc089027dd3f8792554c69fb upstream.

qca_tty_receive() consumes each input byte before checking whether a
completed frame needs a fresh receive skb. When the current byte completes
a frame, the driver delivers that frame and then allocates a new skb for
the next one.

If that allocation fails, the current code returns i even though data[i]
has already been consumed and may already have completed the delivered
frame. Since serdev interprets the return value as the number of accepted
bytes, this under-reports progress by one byte and can replay the final
byte of the completed frame into a fresh parser state on the next call.

Return i + 1 in that failure path so the accepted-byte count matches the
actual receive-state progress.

commit 6dede3967619b5944003227a5d09fdc21ed57d10 upstream.

When dma_map_single() fails in tse_start_xmit(), the function returns
NETDEV_TX_OK without freeing the skb. Since NETDEV_TX_OK tells the
stack the packet was consumed, the skb is never freed, leaking memory
on every DMA mapping failure.

Add dev_kfree_skb_any() before returning to properly free the skb.

commit 25369b22223d1c56e42a0cd4ac9137349d5a898e upstream.

USB drivers bind to USB interfaces and any device managed resources
should have their lifetime tied to the interface rather than parent USB
device. This avoids issues like memory leaks when drivers are unbound
without their devices being physically disconnected (e.g. on probe
deferral or configuration changes).

Fix the USB anchor lifetime so that it is released on driver unbind.

[ Upstream commit e0d1c55501d377163eb57feed863777ed1c973ad ]

The blamed commit changed the conditions which phylib uses to stop
and start the state machine in the suspend and resume paths, and
while improving it, has caused two issues.

The original code used this test:

	phydev-&gt;attached_dev &amp;&amp; phydev-&gt;adjust_link

and if true, the paths would handle the PHY state machine. This test
evaluates true for normal drivers that are using phylib directly
while the PHY is attached to the network device, but false in all
other cases, which include the following cases:

- when the PHY has never been attached to a network device.
- when the PHY has been detached from a network device (as phy_detach()
   sets phydev-&gt;attached_dev to NULL, phy_disconnect() calls
   phy_detach() and additionally sets phydev-&gt;adjust_link NULL.)
- when phylink is using the driver (as phydev-&gt;adjust_link is NULL.)

Only the third case was incorrect, and the blamed commit attempted to
fix this by changing this test to (simplified for brevity, see
phy_uses_state_machine()):

	phydev-&gt;phy_link_change == phy_link_change ?
		phydev-&gt;attached_dev &amp;&amp; phydev-&gt;adjust_link : true

However, this also incorrectly evaluates true in the first two cases.

Fix the first case by ensuring that phy_uses_state_machine() returns
false when phydev-&gt;phy_link_change is NULL.

Fix the second case by ensuring that phydev-&gt;phy_link_change is set to
NULL when phy_detach() is called.

[ Upstream commit fc75ea20ffb452652f0d4033f38fe88d7cfdae35 ]

DSA has 2 kinds of drivers:

1. Those who call dsa_switch_suspend() and dsa_switch_resume() from
   their device PM ops: qca8k-8xxx, bcm_sf2, microchip ksz
2. Those who don't: all others. The above methods should be optional.

For type 1, dsa_switch_suspend() calls dsa_user_suspend() -&gt; phylink_stop(),
and dsa_switch_resume() calls dsa_user_resume() -&gt; phylink_start().
These seem good candidates for setting mac_managed_pm = true because
that is essentially its definition [1], but that does not seem to be the
biggest problem for now, and is not what this change focuses on.

Talking strictly about the 2nd category of DSA drivers here (which
do not have MAC managed PM, meaning that for their attached PHYs,
mdio_bus_phy_suspend() and mdio_bus_phy_resume() should run in full),
I have noticed that the following warning from mdio_bus_phy_resume() is
triggered:

	WARN_ON(phydev-&gt;state != PHY_HALTED &amp;&amp; phydev-&gt;state != PHY_READY &amp;&amp;
		phydev-&gt;state != PHY_UP);

because the PHY state machine is running.

It's running as a result of a previous dsa_user_open() -&gt; ... -&gt;
phylink_start() -&gt; phy_start() having been initiated by the user.

The previous mdio_bus_phy_suspend() was supposed to have called
phy_stop_machine(), but it didn't. So this is why the PHY is in state
PHY_NOLINK by the time mdio_bus_phy_resume() runs.

mdio_bus_phy_suspend() did not call phy_stop_machine() because for
phylink, the phydev-&gt;adjust_link function pointer is NULL. This seems a
technicality introduced by commit fddd91016d16 ("phylib: fix PAL state
machine restart on resume"). That commit was written before phylink
existed, and was intended to avoid crashing with consumer drivers which
don't use the PHY state machine - phylink always does, when using a PHY.
But phylink itself has historically not been developed with
suspend/resume in mind, and apparently not tested too much in that
scenario, allowing this bug to exist unnoticed for so long. Plus, prior
to the WARN_ON(), it would have likely been invisible.

This issue is not in fact restricted to type 2 DSA drivers (according to
the above ad-hoc classification), but can be extrapolated to any MAC
driver with phylink and MDIO-bus-managed PHY PM ops. DSA is just where
the issue was reported. Assuming mac_managed_pm is set correctly, a
quick search indicates the following other drivers might be affected:

$ grep -Zlr PHYLINK_NETDEV drivers/ | xargs -0 grep -L mac_managed_pm
drivers/net/ethernet/atheros/ag71xx.c
drivers/net/ethernet/microchip/sparx5/sparx5_main.c

drivers/net/ethernet/meta/fbnic/fbnic_phylink.c
drivers/net/ethernet/tehuti/tn40_phy.c
drivers/net/ethernet/mscc/ocelot_net.c

Make the existing conditions dependent on the PHY device having a
phydev-&gt;phy_link_change() implementation equal to the default
phy_link_change() provided by phylib. Otherwise, we implicitly know that
the phydev has the phylink-provided phylink_phy_change() callback, and
when phylink is used, the PHY state machine always needs to be stopped/
started on the suspend/resume path. The code is structured as such that
if phydev-&gt;phy_link_change() is absent, it is a matter of time until the
kernel will crash - no need to further complicate the test.

Thus, for the situation where the PM is not managed by the MAC, we will
make the MDIO bus PM ops treat identically the phylink-controlled PHYs
with the phylib-controlled PHYs where an adjust_link() callback is
supplied. In both cases, the MDIO bus PM ops should stop and restart the
PHY state machine.

[ Upstream commit f40a673d6b4a128fe95dd9b8c3ed02da50a6a862 ]

In an upcoming change, mdio_bus_phy_may_suspend() will need to
distinguish a phylib-based PHY client from a phylink PHY client.
For that, it will need to compare the phydev-&gt;phy_link_change() function
pointer with the eponymous phy_link_change() provided by phylib.

To avoid forward function declarations, the default PHY link state
change method should be moved upwards. There is no functional change
associated with this patch, it is only to reduce the noise from a real
bug fix.

[ Upstream commit 317e49358ebbf6390fa439ef3c142f9239dd25fb ]

The devm_free_irq() and devm_request_irq() functions should not be
executed in an atomic context.

During device suspend, all userspace processes and most kernel threads
are frozen. Additionally, we flush all tx/rx status, disable all macb
interrupts, and halt rx operations. Therefore, it is safe to split the
region protected by bp-&gt;lock into two independent sections, allowing
devm_free_irq() and devm_request_irq() to run in a non-atomic context.
This modification resolves the following lockdep warning:
