commit 32bee8f48fa048a3198109de50e51c092507ff52 upstream.

When sending packets as fast as possible using "cangen -g 0 -i -x", the
HI-3110 occasionally latches the interrupt pin high on completion of a
packet, but doesn't set the TXCPLT bit in the INTF register.  The INTF
register contains 0x00 as if no interrupt has occurred.  Even waiting
for a few milliseconds after the interrupt doesn't help.

Work around this apparent erratum by instead checking the TXMTY bit in
the STATF register ("TX FIFO empty").  We know that we've queued up a
packet for transmission if priv-&gt;tx_len is nonzero.  If the TX FIFO is
empty, transmission of that packet must have completed.

Note that this is congruent with our handling of received packets, which
likewise gleans from the STATF register whether a packet is waiting in
the RX FIFO, instead of looking at the INTF register.

<title>can: hi311x: Acquire SPI lock on -&gt;do_get_berr_counter</title>

commit 5cec9425b41dcf834c3d48776900d6acb7e96f38 upstream.

hi3110_get_berr_counter() may run concurrently to the rest of the driver
but neglects to acquire the lock protecting access to the SPI device.
As a result, it and the rest of the driver may clobber each other's tx
and rx buffers.

We became aware of this issue because transmission of packets with
"cangen -g 0 -i -x" frequently hung.  It turns out that agetty executes
-&gt;do_get_berr_counter every few seconds via the following call stack:

    CPU: 2 PID: 1605 Comm: agetty
    [&lt;7f3f7500&gt;] (hi3110_get_berr_counter [hi311x])
    [&lt;7f130204&gt;] (can_fill_info [can_dev])
    [&lt;80693bc0&gt;] (rtnl_fill_ifinfo)
    [&lt;806949ec&gt;] (rtnl_dump_ifinfo)
    [&lt;806b4834&gt;] (netlink_dump)
    [&lt;806b4bc8&gt;] (netlink_recvmsg)
    [&lt;8065f180&gt;] (sock_recvmsg)
    [&lt;80660f90&gt;] (___sys_recvmsg)
    [&lt;80661e7c&gt;] (__sys_recvmsg)
    [&lt;80661ec0&gt;] (SyS_recvmsg)
    [&lt;80108b20&gt;] (ret_fast_syscall+0x0/0x1c)

agetty listens to netlink messages in order to update the login prompt
when IP addresses change (if /etc/issue contains \4 or \6 escape codes):
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/utils/util-linux/util-linux.git/commit/?id=e36deb6424e8

It's a useful feature, though it seems questionable that it causes CAN
bit error statistics to be queried.

Be that as it may, if hi3110_get_berr_counter() is invoked while a frame
is sent by hi3110_hw_tx(), bogus SPI transfers like the following may
occur:

    =&gt; 12 00             (hi3110_get_berr_counter() wanted to transmit
                          EC 00 to query the transmit error counter,
                          but the first byte was overwritten by
                          hi3110_hw_tx_frame())

    =&gt; EA 00 3E 80 01 FB (hi3110_hw_tx_frame() wanted to transmit a
                          frame, but the first byte was overwritten by
                          hi3110_get_berr_counter() because it wanted
                          to query the receive error counter)

This sequence hangs the transmission because the driver believes it has
sent a frame and waits for the interrupt signaling completion, but in
reality the chip has never sent away the frame since the commands it
received were malformed.

Fix by acquiring the SPI lock in hi3110_get_berr_counter().

I've scrutinized the entire driver for further unlocked SPI accesses but
found no others.

commit af8a41cccf8f469165c6debc8fe07c5fd2ca501a upstream.

Some HP laptops have only a single wifi antenna. This would not be a
problem except that they were shipped with an incorrectly encoded
EFUSE. It should have been possible to open the computer and transfer
the antenna connection to the other terminal except that such action
might void the warranty, and moving the antenna broke the Windows
driver. The fix was to add a module option that would override the
EFUSE encoding. That was done with commit c18d8f509571 ("rtlwifi:
rtl8723be: Add antenna select module parameter"). There was still a
problem with Bluetooth coexistence, which was addressed with commit
baa170229095 ("rtlwifi: btcoexist: Implement antenna selection").
There were still problems, thus there were commit 0ff78adeef11
("rtlwifi: rtl8723be: fix ant_sel code") and commit 6d6226928369
("rtlwifi: btcoexist: Fix antenna selection code"). Despite all these
attempts at fixing the problem, the code is not yet right. A proper
fix is important as there are now instances of laptops having
RTL8723DE chips with the same problem.

The module parameter ant_sel is used to control antenna number and path.
At present enum ANT_{X2,X1} is used to define the antenna number, but
this choice is not intuitive, thus change to a new enum ANT_{MAIN,AUX}
to make it more readable. This change showed examples where incorrect
values were used. It was also possible to remove a workaround in
halbtcoutsrc.c.

The experimental results with single antenna connected to specific path
are now as follows:
  ant_sel  ANT_MAIN(#1)  ANT_AUX(#2)
     0        -8            -62
     1        -62           -10

commit a44709bba70fb9badc44b6a551415b152db13182 upstream.

After mac power-on sequence, wifi will start to work so notify btcoex the
event to configure registers especially related to antenna. This will not
only help to assign antenna but also to yield better user experience.

commit a44709bba70fb9badc44b6a551415b152db13182 upstream.

After mac power-on sequence, wifi will start to work so notify btcoex the
event to configure registers especially related to antenna. This will not
only help to assign antenna but also to yield better user experience.

<title>net: don't call update_pmtu unconditionally</title>

commit f15ca723c1ebe6c1a06bc95fda6b62cd87b44559 upstream.

Some dst_ops (e.g. md_dst_ops)) doesn't set this handler. It may result to:
"BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at           (null)"

Let's add a helper to check if update_pmtu is available before calling it.

Fixes: 52a589d51f10 ("geneve: update skb dst pmtu on tx path")
Fixes: a93bf0ff4490 ("vxlan: update skb dst pmtu on tx path")

commit 52a589d51f1008f62569bf89e95b26221ee76690 upstream.

Commit a93bf0ff4490 ("vxlan: update skb dst pmtu on tx path") has fixed
a performance issue caused by the change of lower dev's mtu for vxlan.

The same thing needs to be done for geneve as well.

Note that geneve cannot adjust it's mtu according to lower dev's mtu
when creating it. The performance is very low later when netperfing
over it without fixing the mtu manually. This patch could also avoid
this issue.

<title>virtio_net: fix adding vids on big-endian</title>

[ Upstream commit d7fad4c840f33a6bd333dd7fbb3006edbcf0017a ]

Programming vids (adding or removing them) still passes
guest-endian values in the DMA buffer. That's wrong
if guest is big-endian and when virtio 1 is enabled.

Note: this is on top of a previous patch:
	virtio_net: split out ctrl buffer

[ Upstream commit 12e571693837d6164bda61e316b1944972ee0d97 ]

When sending control commands, virtio net sets up several buffers for
DMA. The buffers are all part of the net device which means it's
actually allocated by kvmalloc so it's in theory (on extreme memory
pressure) possible to get a vmalloc'ed buffer which on some platforms
means we can't DMA there.

Fix up by moving the DMA buffers into a separate structure.
