commit e2710dbf0dc1e37d85368e2404049dadda848d5a upstream.

Alex reported the following race condition:

/* link goes up... interrupt... schedule watchdog */
\ e1000_watchdog_task
	\ e1000e_has_link
		\ hw-&gt;mac.ops.check_for_link() === e1000e_check_for_copper_link
			\ e1000e_phy_has_link_generic(..., &amp;link)
				link = true

					 /* link goes down... interrupt */
					 \ e1000_msix_other
						 hw-&gt;mac.get_link_status = true

			/* link is up */
			mac-&gt;get_link_status = false

		link_active = true
		/* link_active is true, wrongly, and stays so because
		 * get_link_status is false */

Avoid this problem by making sure that we don't set get_link_status = false
after having checked the link.

It seems this problem has been present since the introduction of e1000e.

<title>Revert "e1000e: Separate signaling for link check/link up"</title>

commit 3016e0a0c91246e55418825ba9aae271be267522 upstream.

This reverts commit 19110cfbb34d4af0cdfe14cd243f3b09dc95b013.
This reverts commit 4110e02eb45ea447ec6f5459c9934de0a273fb91.
This reverts commit d3604515c9eda464a92e8e67aae82dfe07fe3c98.

Commit 19110cfbb34d ("e1000e: Separate signaling for link check/link up")
changed what happens to the link status when there is an error which
happens after "get_link_status = false" in the copper check_for_link
callbacks. Previously, such an error would be ignored and the link
considered up. After that commit, any error implies that the link is down.

Revert commit 19110cfbb34d ("e1000e: Separate signaling for link check/link
up") and its followups. After reverting, the race condition described in
the log of commit 19110cfbb34d is reintroduced. It may still be triggered
by LSC events but this should keep the link down in case the link is
electrically unstable, as discussed. The race may no longer be
triggered by RXO events because commit 4aea7a5c5e94 ("e1000e: Avoid
receiver overrun interrupt bursts") restored reading icr in the Other
handler.

<title>e1000e: Avoid missed interrupts following ICR read</title>

commit 116f4a640b3197401bc93b8adc6c35040308ceff upstream.

The 82574 specification update errata 12 states that interrupts may be
missed if ICR is read while INT_ASSERTED is not set. Avoid that problem by
setting all bits related to events that can trigger the Other interrupt in
IMS.

The Other interrupt is raised for such events regardless of whether or not
they are set in IMS. However, only when they are set is the INT_ASSERTED
bit also set in ICR.

By doing this, we ensure that INT_ASSERTED is always set when we read ICR
in e1000_msix_other() and steer clear of the errata. This also ensures that
ICR will automatically be cleared on read, therefore we no longer need to
clear bits explicitly.

commit 361a954e6a7215de11a6179ad9bdc07d7e394b04 upstream.

Restores the ICS write for Rx/Tx queue interrupts which was present before
commit 16ecba59bc33 ("e1000e: Do not read ICR in Other interrupt", v4.5-rc1)
but was not restored in commit 4aea7a5c5e94
("e1000e: Avoid receiver overrun interrupt bursts", v4.15-rc1).

This re-raises the queue interrupts in case the txq or rxq bits were set in
ICR and the Other interrupt handler read and cleared ICR before the queue
interrupt was raised.

commit 1f0ea19722ef9dfa229a9540f70b8d1c34a98a6a upstream.

This partially reverts commit 4aea7a5c5e940c1723add439f4088844cd26196d.

We keep the fix for the first part of the problem (1) described in the log
of that commit, that is to read ICR in the other interrupt handler. We
remove the fix for the second part of the problem (2), Other interrupt
throttling.

Bursts of "Other" interrupts may once again occur during rxo (receive
overflow) traffic conditions. This is deemed acceptable in the interest of
avoiding unforeseen fallout from changes that are not strictly necessary.
As discussed, the e1000e driver should be in "maintenance mode".

commit 745d0bd3af99ccc8c5f5822f808cd133eadad6ac upstream.

It was reported that emulated e1000e devices in vmware esxi 6.5 Build
7526125 do not link up after commit 4aea7a5c5e94 ("e1000e: Avoid receiver
overrun interrupt bursts", v4.15-rc1). Some tracing shows that after
e1000e_trigger_lsc() is called, ICR reads out as 0x0 in e1000_msix_other()
on emulated e1000e devices. In comparison, on real e1000e 82574 hardware,
icr=0x80000004 (_INT_ASSERTED | _LSC) in the same situation.

Some experimentation showed that this flaw in vmware e1000e emulation can
be worked around by not setting Other in EIAC. This is how it was before
16ecba59bc33 ("e1000e: Do not read ICR in Other interrupt", v4.5-rc1).

commit 8edfe2e992b75aee3da9316e9697c531194c2f53 upstream.

Commit 822fb18a82aba ("xen-netfront: wait xenbus state change when load
module manually") added a new wait queue to wait on for a state change
when the module is loaded manually. Unfortunately there is no wakeup
anywhere to stop that waiting.

Instead of introducing a new wait queue rename the existing
module_unload_q to module_wq and use it for both purposes (loading and
unloading).

As any state change of the backend might be intended to stop waiting
do the wake_up_all() in any case when netback_changed() is called.

commit 8edfe2e992b75aee3da9316e9697c531194c2f53 upstream.

Commit 822fb18a82aba ("xen-netfront: wait xenbus state change when load
module manually") added a new wait queue to wait on for a state change
when the module is loaded manually. Unfortunately there is no wakeup
anywhere to stop that waiting.

Instead of introducing a new wait queue rename the existing
module_unload_q to module_wq and use it for both purposes (loading and
unloading).

As any state change of the backend might be intended to stop waiting
do the wake_up_all() in any case when netback_changed() is called.

[ Upstream commit 21f2706b20100bb3db378461ab9b8e2035309b5b ]

There is a call trace generated after commit 2d408c0d4574b01b9ed45e02516888bf925e11a9(
xen-netfront: fix queue name setting). There is no 'device/vif/xx-q0-tx' file found
under /proc/irq/xx/.

This patch only picks up device type and id as its name.

With the patch, now /proc/interrupts looks like below and the warning message gone:

[ Upstream commit 2d408c0d4574b01b9ed45e02516888bf925e11a9 ]

Commit f599c64fdf7d ("xen-netfront: Fix race between device setup and
open") changed the initialization order: xennet_create_queues() now
happens before we do register_netdev() so using netdev-&gt;name in
xennet_init_queue() is incorrect, we end up with the following in
/proc/interrupts:

 60:        139          0   xen-dyn    -event     eth%d-q0-tx
 61:        265          0   xen-dyn    -event     eth%d-q0-rx
 62:        234          0   xen-dyn    -event     eth%d-q1-tx
 63:          1          0   xen-dyn    -event     eth%d-q1-rx

and this looks ugly. Actually, using early netdev name (even when it's
already set) is also not ideal: nowadays we tend to rename eth devices
and queue name may end up not corresponding to the netdev name.

Use nodename from xenbus device for queue naming: this can't change in VM's
lifetime. Now /proc/interrupts looks like

 62:        202          0   xen-dyn    -event     device/vif/0-q0-tx
 63:        317          0   xen-dyn    -event     device/vif/0-q0-rx
 64:        262          0   xen-dyn    -event     device/vif/0-q1-tx
 65:         17          0   xen-dyn    -event     device/vif/0-q1-rx

<title>nfp: avoid buffer leak when FW communication fails</title>

[ Upstream commit 07300f774fec9519663a597987a4083225588be4 ]

After device is stopped we reset the rings by moving all free buffers
to positions [0, cnt - 2], and clear the position cnt - 1 in the ring.
We then proceed to clear the read/write pointers.  This means that if
we try to reset the ring again the code will assume that the next to
fill buffer is at position 0 and swap it with cnt - 1.  Since we
previously cleared position cnt - 1 it will lead to leaking the first
buffer and leaving ring in a bad state.

This scenario can only happen if FW communication fails, in which case
the ring will never be used again, so the fact it's in a bad state will
not be noticed.  Buffer leak is the only problem.  Don't try to move
buffers in the ring if the read/write pointers indicate the ring was
never used or have already been reset.

nfp_net_clear_config_and_disable() is now fully idempotent.

Found by code inspection, FW communication failures are very rare,
and reconfiguring a live device is not common either, so it's unlikely
anyone has ever noticed the leak.
