can: kvaser_usb: Ignore CMD_FLUSH_QUEUE_REPLY messages

2017-11-02T08:40:50+00:00

commit e1d2d1329a5722dbecc9c278303fcc4aa01f8790 upstream.

To avoid kernel warning "Unhandled message (68)", ignore the
CMD_FLUSH_QUEUE_REPLY message for now.

As of Leaf v2 firmware version v4.1.844 (2017-02-15), flush tx queue is
synchronous. There is a capability bit indicating whether flushing tx
queue is synchronous or asynchronous.

A proper solution would be to query the device for capabilities. If the
synchronous tx flush capability bit is set, we should wait for
CMD_FLUSH_QUEUE_REPLY message, while flushing the tx queue.

rtlwifi: rtl8821ae: Fix connection lost problem

2017-10-27T08:23:17+00:00

commit b8b8b16352cd90c6083033fd4487f04fae935c18 upstream.

In commit 40b368af4b75 ("rtlwifi: Fix alignment issues"), the read
of REG_DBI_READ was changed from 16 to 8 bits. For unknown reasonsi
this change results in reduced stability for the wireless connection.
This regression was located using bisection.

brcmsmac: make some local variables 'static const' to reduce stack size

2017-10-27T08:23:16+00:00

commit c503dd38f850be28867ef7a42d9abe5ade81a9bd upstream.

With KASAN and a couple of other patches applied, this driver is one
of the few remaining ones that actually use more than 2048 bytes of
kernel stack:

broadcom/brcm80211/brcmsmac/phy/phy_n.c: In function 'wlc_phy_workarounds_nphy_gainctrl':
broadcom/brcm80211/brcmsmac/phy/phy_n.c:16065:1: warning: the frame size of 3264 bytes is larger than 2048 bytes [-Wframe-larger-than=]
broadcom/brcm80211/brcmsmac/phy/phy_n.c: In function 'wlc_phy_workarounds_nphy':
broadcom/brcm80211/brcmsmac/phy/phy_n.c:17138:1: warning: the frame size of 2864 bytes is larger than 2048 bytes [-Wframe-larger-than=]

Here, I'm reducing the stack size by marking as many local variables as
'static const' as I can without changing the actual code.

This is the first of three patches to improve the stack usage in this
driver. It would be good to have this backported to stabl kernels
to get all drivers in 'allmodconfig' below the 2048 byte limit so
we can turn on the frame warning again globally, but I realize that
the patch is larger than the normal limit for stable backports.

The other two patches do not need to be backported.

can: esd_usb2: Fix can_dlc value for received RTR, frames

2017-10-27T08:23:16+00:00

commit 72d92e865d1560723e1957ee3f393688c49ca5bf upstream.

The dlc member of the struct rx_msg contains also the ESD_RTR flag to
mark received RTR frames. Without the fix the can_dlc value for received
RTR frames would always be set to 8 by get_can_dlc() instead of the
received value.

can: gs_usb: fix busy loop if no more TX context is available

2017-10-27T08:23:16+00:00

commit 97819f943063b622eca44d3644067c190dc75039 upstream.

If sending messages with no cable connected, it quickly happens that
there is no more TX context available. Then "gs_can_start_xmit()"
returns with "NETDEV_TX_BUSY" and the upper layer does retry
immediately keeping the CPU busy. To fix that issue, I moved
"atomic_dec(&dev->active_tx_urbs)" from "gs_usb_xmit_callback()" to
the TX done handling in "gs_usb_receive_bulk_callback()". Renaming
"active_tx_urbs" to "active_tx_contexts" and moving it into
"gs_[alloc|free]_tx_context()" would also make sense.

net: mvpp2: release reference to txq_cpu[] entry after unmapping

2017-10-21T15:09:05+00:00

[ Upstream commit 36fb7435b6ac4d288a2d4deea8934f9456ab46b6 ]

The mvpp2_txq_bufs_free() function is called upon TX completion to DMA
unmap TX buffers, and free the corresponding SKBs. It gets the
references to the SKB to free and the DMA buffer to unmap from a per-CPU
txq_pcpu data structure.

However, the code currently increments the pointer to the next entry
before doing the DMA unmap and freeing the SKB. It does not cause any
visible problem because for a given SKB the TX completion is guaranteed
to take place on the CPU where the TX was started. However, it is much
more logical to increment the pointer to the next entry once the current
entry has been completely unmapped/released.

net/mlx4_core: Fix VF overwrite of module param which disables DMFS on new probed PFs

2017-10-21T15:09:05+00:00

[ Upstream commit 95f1ba9a24af9769f6e20dfe9a77c863f253f311 ]

In the VF driver, module parameter mlx4_log_num_mgm_entry_size was
mistakenly overwritten -- and in a manner which overrode the
device-managed flow steering option encoded in the parameter.

log_num_mgm_entry_size is a global module parameter which
affects all ConnectX-3 PFs installed on that host.
If a VF changes log_num_mgm_entry_size, this will affect all PFs
which are probed subsequent to the change (by disabling DMFS for
those PFs).

net/mlx4_en: fix overflow in mlx4_en_init_timestamp()

2017-10-21T15:09:04+00:00

[ Upstream commit 47d3a07528ecbbccf53bc4390d70b4e3d1c04fcf ]

The cited commit makes a great job of finding optimal shift/multiplier
values assuming a 10 seconds wrap around, but forgot to change the
overflow_period computation.

It overflows in cyclecounter_cyc2ns(), and the final result is 804 ms,
which is silly.

Lets simply use 5 seconds, no need to recompute this, given how it is
supposed to work.

Later, we will use a timer instead of a work queue, since the new RX
allocation schem will no longer need mlx4_en_recover_from_oom() and the
service_task firing every 250 ms.
