[ 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.

[ Upstream commit 9a11aff25fd43d5bd2660ababdc9f564b0ba183a ]

In case netdev is closed at the moment of pci shutdown, aq_nic_stop
gets called second time. napi_disable in that case hangs indefinitely.
In other case, if device was never opened at all, we get oops because
of null pointer access.

We should invoke aq_nic_stop conditionally, only if device is running
at the moment of shutdown.

<title>tun: fix vlan packet truncation</title>

[ Upstream commit 81c895072d29cd70eea5be1a8587cd6461c3715a ]

Bogus trimming in tun_net_xmit() causes truncated vlan packets.

skb-&gt;len is correct whether or not skb_vlan_tag_present() is true. There
is no more reason to adjust the skb length on xmit in this driver than
any other driver. tun_put_user() adds 4 bytes to the total for tagged
packets because it transmits the tag inline to userspace.  This is
similar to a nic transmitting the tag inline on the wire.

Reproducing the bug by sending any tagged packet through back-to-back
connected tap interfaces:

 socat TUN,tun-type=tap,iff-up,tun-name=in TUN,tun-type=tap,iff-up,tun-name=out &amp;
 ip link add link in name in.20 type vlan id 20
 ip addr add 10.9.9.9/24 dev in.20
 ip link set in.20 up
 tshark -nxxi in -f arp -c1 2&gt;/dev/null &amp;
 tshark -nxxi out -f arp -c1 2&gt;/dev/null &amp;
 ping -c 1 10.9.9.5 &gt;/dev/null 2&gt;&amp;1

The output from the 'in' and 'out' interfaces are different when the
bug is present:

[ Upstream commit cce96d1883dae4b79f44890e5118243d806da286 ]

On ASUS XG-C100C with 1.5.44 firmware a special mode called "dirty wake"
is active. With this mode when motherboard gets powered (but no poweron
happens yet), NIC automatically enables powersave link and watches
for WOL packet.
This normally allows to powerup the PC after AC power failures.

Not all motherboards or bios settings gives power to PCI slots,
so this mode is not enabled on all the hardware.

4.16 linux driver introduced full hardware reset sequence
This is required since before that we had no NIC hardware
reset implemented and there were side effects of "not clean start".

But this full reset is incompatible with "dirty wake" WOL feature
it keeps the PHY link in a special mode forever. As a consequence,
driver sees no link and no traffic.

To fix this we forcibly change FW state to idle state before doing
the full reset. This makes FW to restore link state.

We tends to batch submitting packets during XDP_TX. This requires to
kick virtqueue after a batch, we tried to do it through
xdp_do_flush_map() which only makes sense for devmap not XDP_TX. So
explicitly kick the virtqueue in this case.

In some firmware images, the length of BNX_DIR_TYPE_PKG_LOG nvram type
could be greater than the fixed buffer length of 4096 bytes allocated by
the driver.  This was causing HWRM_NVM_READ to copy more data to the buffer
than the allocated size, causing general protection fault.

Fix the issue by allocating the exact buffer length returned by
HWRM_NVM_FIND_DIR_ENTRY, instead of 4096.  Move the kzalloc() call
into the bnxt_get_pkgver() function.

So, set it to be 1:1 mapping. Otherwise, it will cause unexpected
change of egress vlan tagged packets, like prio 2 -&gt; prio 5.

[ Upstream commit 117df655f8ed51adb6e6b163812a06ebeae9f453 ]

The SFP eeprom indicates the transceiver signals (Rx LOS, Tx Fault, etc.)
that it supports.  Update the driver to include checking the eeprom data
when deciding whether to use a transceiver signal.

<title>amd-xgbe: Improve KR auto-negotiation and training</title>

[ Upstream commit 96f4d430c507ed4856048c2dc9c1a2ea5b5e74e4 ]

Update xgbe-phy-v2.c to make use of the auto-negotiation (AN) phy hooks
to improve the ability to successfully complete Clause 73 AN when running
at 10gbps.  Hardware can sometimes have issues with CDR lock when the
AN DME page exchange is being performed.

The AN and KR training hooks are used as follows:
- The pre AN hook is used to disable CDR tracking in the PHY so that the
  DME page exchange can be successfully and consistently completed.
- The post KR training hook is used to re-enable the CDR tracking so that
  KR training can successfully complete.
- The post AN hook is used to check for an unsuccessful AN which will
  increase a CDR tracking enablement delay (up to a maximum value).

Add two debugfs entries to allow control over use of the CDR tracking
workaround.  The debugfs entries allow the CDR tracking workaround to
be disabled and determine whether to re-enable CDR tracking before or
after link training has been initiated.

Also, with these changes the receiver reset cycle that is performed during
the link status check can be performed less often.
