commit 7b5967389f5a8dfb9d32843830f5e2717e20995d upstream.

This patch is based on an earlier one submitted
by Jon Maxwell with the following commit message:

"We recently encountered a bug where a few customers using ibmveth on the
same LPAR hit an issue where a TCP session hung when large receive was
enabled. Closer analysis revealed that the session was stuck because the
one side was advertising a zero window repeatedly.

We narrowed this down to the fact the ibmveth driver did not set gso_size
which is translated by TCP into the MSS later up the stack. The MSS is
used to calculate the TCP window size and as that was abnormally large,
it was calculating a zero window, even although the sockets receive buffer
was completely empty."

We rely on the Virtual I/O Server partition in a pseries
environment to provide the MSS through the TCP header checksum
field. The stipulation is that users should not disable checksum
offloading if rx packet aggregation is enabled through VIOS.

Some firmware offerings provide the MSS in the RX buffer.
This is signalled by a bit in the RX queue descriptor.

<title>net/mlx4_core: Fix when to save some qp context flags for dynamic VST to VGT transitions</title>

commit 7c3945bc2073554bb2ecf983e073dee686679c53 upstream.

Save the qp context flags byte containing the flag disabling vlan stripping
in the RESET to INIT qp transition, rather than in the INIT to RTR
transition. Per the firmware spec, the flags in this byte are active
in the RESET to INIT transition.

As a result of saving the flags in the incorrect qp transition, when
switching dynamically from VGT to VST and back to VGT, the vlan
remained stripped (as is required for VST) and did not return to
not-stripped (as is required for VGT).

<title>net/mlx4_core: Fix racy CQ (Completion Queue) free</title>

commit 291c566a28910614ce42d0ffe82196eddd6346f4 upstream.

In function mlx4_cq_completion() and mlx4_cq_event(), the
radix_tree_lookup requires a rcu_read_lock.
This is mandatory: if another core frees the CQ, it could
run the radix_tree_node_rcu_free() call_rcu() callback while
its being used by the radix tree lookup function.

Additionally, in function mlx4_cq_event(), since we are adding
the rcu lock around the radix-tree lookup, we no longer need to take
the spinlock. Also, the synchronize_irq() call for the async event
eliminates the need for incrementing the cq reference count in
mlx4_cq_event().

Other changes:
1. In function mlx4_cq_free(), replace spin_lock_irq with spin_lock:
   we no longer take this spinlock in the interrupt context.
   The spinlock here, therefore, simply protects against different
   threads simultaneously invoking mlx4_cq_free() for different cq's.

2. In function mlx4_cq_free(), we move the radix tree delete to before
   the synchronize_irq() calls. This guarantees that we will not
   access this cq during any subsequent interrupts, and therefore can
   safely free the CQ after the synchronize_irq calls. The rcu_read_lock
   in the interrupt handlers only needs to protect against corrupting the
   radix tree; the interrupt handlers may access the cq outside the
   rcu_read_lock due to the synchronize_irq calls which protect against
   premature freeing of the cq.

3. In function mlx4_cq_event(), we change the mlx_warn message to mlx4_dbg.

4. We leave the cq reference count mechanism in place, because it is
   still needed for the cq completion tasklet mechanism.

[ Upstream commit 31739eae738ccbe8b9d627c3f2251017ca03f4d2 ]

Commit 6ac3ce8295e6 ("net: bcmgenet: Remove excessive PHY reset")
removed the bcmgenet_mii_reset() function from bcmgenet_power_up() and
bcmgenet_internal_phy_setup() functions.  In so doing it broke the reset
of the internal PHY devices used by the GENETv1-GENETv3 which required
this reset before the UniMAC was enabled.  It also broke the internal
GPHY devices used by the GENETv4 because the config_init that installed
the AFE workaround was no longer occurring after the reset of the GPHY
performed by bcmgenet_phy_power_set() in bcmgenet_internal_phy_setup().
In addition the code in bcmgenet_internal_phy_setup() related to the
"enable APD" comment goes with the bcmgenet_mii_reset() so it should
have also been removed.

Commit bd4060a6108b ("net: bcmgenet: Power on integrated GPHY in
bcmgenet_power_up()") moved the bcmgenet_phy_power_set() call to the
bcmgenet_power_up() function, but failed to remove it from the
bcmgenet_internal_phy_setup() function.  Had it done so, the
bcmgenet_internal_phy_setup() function would have been empty and could
have been removed at that time.

Commit 5dbebbb44a6a ("net: bcmgenet: Software reset EPHY after power on")
was submitted to correct the functional problems introduced by
commit 6ac3ce8295e6 ("net: bcmgenet: Remove excessive PHY reset"). It
was included in v4.4 and made available on 4.3-stable. Unfortunately,
it didn't fully revert the commit because this bcmgenet_mii_reset()
doesn't apply the soft reset to the internal GPHY used by GENETv4 like
the previous one did. This prevents the restoration of the AFE work-
arounds for internal GPHY devices after the bcmgenet_phy_power_set() in
bcmgenet_internal_phy_setup().

This commit takes the alternate approach of removing the unnecessary
bcmgenet_internal_phy_setup() function which shouldn't have been in v4.3
so that when bcmgenet_mii_reset() was restored it should have only gone
into bcmgenet_power_up().  This will avoid the problems while also
removing the redundancy (and hopefully some of the confusion).

In addition the code in bcmgenet_internal_phy_setup() related to the
"enable APD" comment goes with the bcmgenet_mii_reset() so it should
have also been removed.

Commit bd4060a6108b ("net: bcmgenet: Power on integrated GPHY in
bcmgenet_power_up()") moved the bcmgenet_phy_power_set() call to the
bcmgenet_power_up() function, but failed to remove it from the
bcmgenet_internal_phy_setup() function.  Had it done so, the
bcmgenet_internal_phy_setup() function would have been empty and could
have been removed at that time.

Commit 5dbebbb44a6a ("net: bcmgenet: Software reset EPHY after power on")
was submitted to correct the functional problems introduced by
commit 6ac3ce8295e6 ("net: bcmgenet: Remove excessive PHY reset"). It
was included in v4.4 and made available on 4.3-stable. Unfortunately,
it didn't fully revert the commit because this bcmgenet_mii_reset()
doesn't apply the soft reset to the internal GPHY used by GENETv4 like
the previous one did. This prevents the restoration of the AFE work-
arounds for internal GPHY devices after the bcmgenet_phy_power_set() in
bcmgenet_internal_phy_setup().

This commit takes the alternate approach of removing the unnecessary
bcmgenet_internal_phy_setup() function which shouldn't have been in v4.3
so that when bcmgenet_mii_reset() was restored it should have only gone
into bcmgenet_power_up().  This will avoid the problems while also
removing the redundancy (and hopefully some of the confusion).

<title>net/mlx5e: Count LRO packets correctly</title>

[ Upstream commit 8ab7e2ae15d84ba758b2c8c6f4075722e9bd2a08 ]

RX packets statistics ('rx_packets' counter) used to count LRO packets
as one, even though it contains multiple segments.
This patch will increment the counter by the number of segments, and
align the driver with the behavior of other drivers in the stack.

Note that no information is lost in this patch due to 'rx_lro_packets'
counter existence.

Before, ethtool showed:
$ ethtool -S ens6 | egrep "rx_packets|rx_lro_packets"
     rx_packets: 435277
     rx_lro_packets: 35847
     rx_packets_phy: 1935066

Now, we will see the more logical statistics:
$ ethtool -S ens6 | egrep "rx_packets|rx_lro_packets"
     rx_packets: 1935066
     rx_lro_packets: 35847
     rx_packets_phy: 1935066

[ Upstream commit 5f40b4ed975c26016cf41953b7510fe90718e21c ]

With ConnectX-4 sharing SRQs from the same space as QPs, we hit a
limit preventing some applications to allocate needed QPs amount.
Double the size to 256K.

<title>amd-xgbe: Fix jumbo MTU processing on newer hardware</title>

[ Upstream commit 622c36f143fc9566ba49d7cec994c2da1182d9e2 ]

Newer hardware does not provide a cumulative payload length when multiple
descriptors are needed to handle the data. Once the MTU increases beyond
the size that can be handled by a single descriptor, the SKB does not get
built properly by the driver.

The driver will now calculate the size of the data buffers used by the
hardware.  The first buffer of the first descriptor is for packet headers
or packet headers and data when the headers can't be split. Subsequent
descriptors in a multi-descriptor chain will not use the first buffer. The
second buffer is used by all the descriptors in the chain for payload data.
Based on whether the driver is processing the first, intermediate, or last
descriptor it can calculate the buffer usage and build the SKB properly.

Tested and verified on both old and new hardware.
