[ Upstream commit 315ca92dd863fecbffc0bb52ae0ac11e0398726a ]

The sh_eth_close() resets the MAC and then calls phy_stop()
so that mdio read access result is incorrect without any error
according to kernel trace like below:

ifconfig-216   [003] .n..   109.133124: mdio_access: ee700000.ethernet-ffffffff read  phy:0x01 reg:0x00 val:0xffff

According to the hardware manual, the RMII mode should be set to 1
before operation the Ethernet MAC. However, the previous code was not
set to 1 after the driver issued the soft_reset in sh_eth_dev_exit()
so that the mdio read access result seemed incorrect. To fix the issue,
this patch adds a condition and set the RMII mode register in
sh_eth_dev_exit() for R-Car Gen2 and RZ/A1 SoCs.

Note that when I have tried to move the sh_eth_dev_exit() calling
after phy_stop() on sh_eth_close(), but it gets worse (kernel panic
happened and it seems that a register is accessed while the clock is
off).

<title>be2net: Fix number of Rx queues used for flow hashing</title>

<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit 718f4a2537089ea41903bf357071306163bc7c04 ]

Number of Rx queues used for flow hashing returned by the driver is
incorrect and this bug prevents user to use the last Rx queue in
indirection table.

Let's say we have a NIC with 6 combined queues:

[root@sm-03 ~]# ethtool -l enp4s0f0
Channel parameters for enp4s0f0:
Pre-set maximums:
RX:             5
TX:             5
Other:          0
Combined:       6
Current hardware settings:
RX:             0
TX:             0
Other:          0
Combined:       6

Default indirection table maps all (6) queues equally but the driver
reports only 5 rings available.

[root@sm-03 ~]# ethtool -x enp4s0f0
RX flow hash indirection table for enp4s0f0 with 5 RX ring(s):
    0:      0     1     2     3     4     5     0     1
    8:      2     3     4     5     0     1     2     3
   16:      4     5     0     1     2     3     4     5
   24:      0     1     2     3     4     5     0     1
...

Now change indirection table somehow:

[root@sm-03 ~]# ethtool -X enp4s0f0 weight 1 1
[root@sm-03 ~]# ethtool -x enp4s0f0
RX flow hash indirection table for enp4s0f0 with 6 RX ring(s):
    0:      0     0     0     0     0     0     0     0
...
   64:      1     1     1     1     1     1     1     1
...

Now it is not possible to change mapping back to equal (default) state:

[root@sm-03 ~]# ethtool -X enp4s0f0 equal 6
Cannot set RX flow hash configuration: Invalid argument

[ Upstream commit 94d250fae48e6f873d8362308f5c4d02cd1b1fd2 ]

Fix a racing condition in ipheth.c that can lead to slow performance.

Bug: In ipheth_tx(), netif_wake_queue() may be called on the callback
ipheth_sndbulk_callback(), _before_ netif_stop_queue() is called.
When this happens, the queue is stopped longer than it needs to be,
thus reducing network performance.

Fix: Move netif_stop_queue() in front of usb_submit_urb(). Now the order
is always correct. In case, usb_submit_urb() fails, the queue is woken up
again as callback will not fire.

Testing: This racing condition is usually not noticeable, as it has to
occur very frequently to slowdown the network. The callback from the USB
is usually triggered slow enough, so the situation does not appear.
However, on a Ubuntu Linux on VMWare Workstation, running on Windows 10,
the we loose the race quite often and the following speedup can be noticed:

Querying EEPROM high pages data for SFP module is currently
not supported by our driver but is still tried, resulting in
invalid FW queries.

Set the EEPROM ethtool data length to 256 for SFP module to

commit 6314dab4b8fb8493d810e175cb340376052c69b6 upstream.

The GetNtbFormat and SetNtbFormat requests operate on 16 bit little
endian values. We get away with ignoring this most of the time, because
we only care about USB_CDC_NCM_NTB16_FORMAT which is 0x0000.  This
fails for USB_CDC_NCM_NTB32_FORMAT.

Fix comparison between LE value from device and constant by converting
the constant to LE.

commit a4176ec356c73a46c07c181c6d04039fafa34a9f upstream.

For USB there is no separate channel being used to pass events
from firmware to the host driver and as such are passed over the
data path. In order to detect mock event messages an additional
check is needed on event subtype. This check is added conditionally
using unlikely() keyword.

commit 4835f37e3bafc138f8bfa3cbed2920dd56fed283 upstream.

Assure the event data buffer is long enough to hold the array
of netinfo items and that SSID length does not exceed the maximum
of 32 characters as per 802.11 spec.

commit 8e290cecdd0178f3d4cf7d463c51dc7e462843b4 upstream.

brcmf_sdio_fromevntchan() was being called on the the data frame
rather than the software header, causing some frames to be
mischaracterized as on the event channel rather than the data channel.

This fixes a major performance regression (due to dropped packets). With
this patch the download speed jumped from 1Mbit/s back up to 40MBit/s due
to the sheer amount of packets being incorrectly processed.

commit 9c349892ccc90c6de2baaa69cc78449f58082273 upstream.

Move event handling out of brcmf_netif_rx() avoiding the need
to pass a flag. This flag is only ever true for USB hosts as
other interface use separate brcmf_rx_event() function.
