[ Upstream commit 4dc69c1c1fff2f587f8e737e70b4a4e7565a5c94 ]

Using memcpy() from a string that is shorter than the length copied means
the destination buffer is being filled with arbitrary data from the kernel
rodata segment. Instead, use strncpy() which will fill the trailing bytes
with zeros.

This was found with the future CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE feature.

[ Upstream commit 44c445c3d1b4eacff23141fa7977c3b2ec3a45c9 ]

This patch fixes a race condition that can result into the interface being
up and carrier on, but with transmits disabled in the hardware.
The bug may show up by repeatedly IFF_DOWN+IFF_UP the interface, which
allows e1000_watchdog() interleave with e1000_down().

Currently if the stat type is invalid then data[i] is being set
either by dereferencing a null pointer p, or it is reading from
an incorrect previous location if we had a valid stat type
previously.  Fix this by skipping over the read of p on an invalid
stat type.

<title>ath10k: schedule hardware restart if WMI command times out</title>

[ Upstream commit a9911937e7d332761e8c4fcbc7ba0426bdc3956f ]

When running in AP mode, ath10k sometimes suffers from TX credit
starvation. The issue is hard to reproduce and shows up once in a
few days, but has been repeatedly seen with QCA9882 and a large
range of firmwares, including 10.2.4.70.67.

Once the module is in this state, TX credits are never replenished,
which results in "SWBA overrun" errors, as no beacons can be sent.
Even worse, WMI commands run in a timeout while holding the conf
mutex for three seconds each, making any further operations slow
and the whole system unresponsive.

The firmware/driver never recovers from that state automatically,
and triggering TX flush or warm restarts won't work over WMI. So
issue a hardware restart if a WMI command times out due to missing
TX credits. This implies a connectivity outage of about 1.4s in AP
mode, but brings back the interface and the whole system to a usable
state. WMI command timeouts have not been seen in absent of this
specific issue, so taking such drastic actions seems legitimate.

[ Upstream commit df52eab23d703142c766ac00bdb8db19d71238d0 ]

Configuring generic network device parameters on tun will fail in
presence of IFLA_INFO_KIND attribute in IFLA_LINKINFO nested attribute
since tun_validate() always return failure.

This can be visualized with following ip-link(8) command sequences:

  # ip link set dev tun0 group 100
  # ip link set dev tun0 group 100 type tun
  RTNETLINK answers: Invalid argument

with contrast to dummy and veth drivers:

  # ip link set dev dummy0 group 100
  # ip link set dev dummy0 type dummy

  # ip link set dev veth0 group 100
  # ip link set dev veth0 group 100 type veth

Fix by returning zero in tun_validate() when @data is NULL that is
always in case since rtnl_link_ops-&gt;maxtype is zero in tun driver.

[ Upstream commit 8c3bf9b62b667456a57aefcf1689e826df146159 ]

Clang currently warns:

drivers/net/ethernet/qlogic/qla3xxx.c:384:24: warning: signed shift
result (0xF00000000) requires 37 bits to represent, but 'int' only has
32 bits [-Wshift-overflow]
                    ((ISP_NVRAM_MASK &lt;&lt; 16) | qdev-&gt;eeprom_cmd_data));
                      ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ^  ~~
1 warning generated.

The warning is certainly accurate since ISP_NVRAM_MASK is defined as
(0x000F &lt;&lt; 16) which is then shifted by 16, resulting in 64424509440,
well above UINT_MAX.

Given that this is the only location in this driver where ISP_NVRAM_MASK
is shifted again, it seems likely that ISP_NVRAM_MASK was originally
defined without a shift and during the move of the shift to the
definition, this statement wasn't properly removed (since ISP_NVRAM_MASK
is used in the statenent right above this). Only the maintainers can
confirm this since this statment has been here since the driver was
first added to the kernel.

rtl_rx() and rtl_tx() are called only if the respective bits are set
in the interrupt status register. Under high load NAPI may not be
able to process all data (work_done == budget) and it will schedule
subsequent calls to the poll callback.
rtl_ack_events() however resets the bits in the interrupt status
register, therefore subsequent calls to rtl8169_poll() won't call
rtl_rx() and rtl_tx() - chip interrupts are still disabled.

Fix this by calling rtl_rx() and rtl_tx() independent of the bits
set in the interrupt status register. Both functions will detect
if there's nothing to do for them.

<title>net: stmmac: Fix stmmac_mdio_reset() when building stmmac as modules</title>

[ Upstream commit 30549aab146ccb1275230c3b4b4bc6b4181fd54e ]

When building stmmac, it is only possible to select CONFIG_DWMAC_GENERIC,
or any of the glue drivers, when CONFIG_STMMAC_PLATFORM is set.
The only exception is CONFIG_STMMAC_PCI.

When calling of_mdiobus_register(), it will call our -&gt;reset()
callback, which is set to stmmac_mdio_reset().

Most of the code in stmmac_mdio_reset() is protected by a
"#if defined(CONFIG_STMMAC_PLATFORM)", which will evaluate
to false when CONFIG_STMMAC_PLATFORM=m.

Because of this, the phy reset gpio will only be pulled when
stmmac is built as built-in, but not when built as modules.

Fix this by using "#if IS_ENABLED()" instead of "#if defined()".

[ Upstream commit 30549aab146ccb1275230c3b4b4bc6b4181fd54e ]

When building stmmac, it is only possible to select CONFIG_DWMAC_GENERIC,
or any of the glue drivers, when CONFIG_STMMAC_PLATFORM is set.
The only exception is CONFIG_STMMAC_PCI.

When calling of_mdiobus_register(), it will call our -&gt;reset()
callback, which is set to stmmac_mdio_reset().

Most of the code in stmmac_mdio_reset() is protected by a
"#if defined(CONFIG_STMMAC_PLATFORM)", which will evaluate
to false when CONFIG_STMMAC_PLATFORM=m.

Because of this, the phy reset gpio will only be pulled when
stmmac is built as built-in, but not when built as modules.

Fix this by using "#if IS_ENABLED()" instead of "#if defined()".

<title>igb: Remove superfluous reset to PHY and page 0 selection</title>

[ Upstream commit 2a83fba6cae89dd9c0625e68ff8ffff791c67ac0 ]

This patch reverts two previous applied patches to fix an issue
that appeared when using SGMII based SFP modules. In the current
state the driver will try to reset the PHY before obtaining the
phy_addr of the SGMII attached PHY. That leads to an error in
e1000_write_phy_reg_sgmii_82575. Causing the initialization to
fail:

    igb: Intel(R) Gigabit Ethernet Network Driver - version 5.4.0-k
    igb: Copyright (c) 2007-2014 Intel Corporation.
    igb: probe of ????:??:??.? failed with error -3

The patches being reverted are:

        igb: reset the PHY before reading the PHY ID

         igb: Explicitly select page 0 at initialization

The first reverted patch directly causes the problem mentioned above.
In case of SGMII the phy_addr is not known at this point and will
only be obtained by 'igb_get_phy_id_82575' further down in the code.
The second removed patch selects forces selection of page 0 in the
PHY. Something that the reset tries to address as well.

As pointed out by Alexander Duzck, the patch below fixes the same
issue but in the proper location:

<title>bonding: avoid defaulting hard_header_len to ETH_HLEN on slave removal</title>

[ Upstream commit 19cdead3e2ef8ed765c5d1ce48057ca9d97b5094 ]

On slave list updates, the bonding driver computes its hard_header_len
as the maximum of all enslaved devices's hard_header_len.
If the slave list is empty, e.g. on last enslaved device removal,
ETH_HLEN is used.

Since the bonding header_ops are set only when the first enslaved
device is attached, the above can lead to header_ops-&gt;create()
being called with the wrong skb headroom in place.

If bond0 is configured on top of ipoib devices, with the
following commands:

ifup bond0
for slave in $BOND_SLAVES_LIST; do
	ip link set dev $slave nomaster
done
ping -c 1 &lt;ip on bond0 subnet&gt;

we will obtain a skb_under_panic() with a similar call trace:
	skb_push+0x3d/0x40
	push_pseudo_header+0x17/0x30 [ib_ipoib]
	ipoib_hard_header+0x4e/0x80 [ib_ipoib]

	SyS_sendto+0xe/0x10
	do_syscall_64+0x67/0x180
	entry_SYSCALL64_slow_path+0x25/0x25

This change addresses the issue avoiding updating the bonding device
hard_header_len when the slaves list become empty, forbidding to
shrink it below the value used by header_ops-&gt;create().

The bug is there since commit 54ef31371407 ("[PATCH] bonding: Handle large
hard_header_len") but the panic can be triggered only since
commit fc791b633515 ("IB/ipoib: move back IB LL address into the hard
header").
