[ Upstream commit 3554e54a46125030c534820c297ed7f6c3907e24 ]

The driver is designed to drop Rx packets and reclaim the buffers
when an allocation fails, and the network interface needs to safely
handle this packet loss. Therefore, an allocation failure of Rx
SKBs is relatively benign.

However, the output of the warning message occurs with a high
scheduling priority that can cause excessive jitter/latency for
other high priority processing.

This commit suppresses the warning messages to prevent scheduling
problems while retaining the failure count in the statistics of
the network interface.

<title>net: stmmac: Fix sub-second increment</title>

[ Upstream commit 91a2559c1dc5b0f7e1256d42b1508935e8eabfbf ]

In fine adjustement mode, which is the current default, the sub-second
    increment register is the number of nanoseconds that will be added to
    the clock when the accumulator overflows. At each clock cycle, the
    value of the addend register is added to the accumulator.
    Currently, we use 20ns = 1e09ns / 50MHz as this value whatever the
    frequency of the ptp clock actually is.
    The adjustment is then done on the addend register, only incrementing
    every X clock cycles X being the ratio between 50MHz and ptp_clock_rate
    (addend = 2^32 * 50MHz/ptp_clock_rate).
    This causes the following issues :
    - In case the frequency of the ptp clock is inferior or equal to 50MHz,
      the addend value calculation will overflow and the default
      addend value will be set to 0, causing the clock to not work at
      all. (For instance, for ptp_clock_rate = 50MHz, addend = 2^32).
    - The resolution of the timestamping clock is limited to 20ns while it
      is not needed, thus limiting the accuracy of the timestamping to
      20ns.

    Fix this by setting sub-second increment to 2e09ns / ptp_clock_rate.
    It will allow to reach the minimum possible frequency for
    ptp_clk_ref, which is 5MHz for GMII 1000Mps Full-Duplex by setting the
    sub-second-increment to a higher value. For instance, for 25MHz, it
    gives ssinc = 80ns and default_addend = 2^31.
    It will also allow to use a lower value for sub-second-increment, thus
    improving the timestamping accuracy with frequencies higher than
    100MHz, for instance, for 200MHz, ssinc = 10ns and default_addend =
    2^31.

v1-&gt;v2:
 - Remove modifications to the calculation of default addend, which broke
 compatibility with clock frequencies for which 2000000000 / ptp_clk_freq
 is not an integer.
 - Modify description according to discussions.

[ Upstream commit 15ce30609d1e88d42fb1cd948f453e6d5f188249 ]

There are 2 registers to write to enable a ptp ref clock coming from the
fpga.
One that enables the usage of the clock from the fpga for emac0 and emac1
as a ptp ref clock, and the other to allow signals from the fpga to reach
emac0 and emac1.
Currently, if the dwmac-socfpga has phymode set to PHY_INTERFACE_MODE_MII,
PHY_INTERFACE_MODE_GMII, or PHY_INTERFACE_MODE_SGMII, both registers will
be written and the ptp ref clock will be set as coming from the fpga.
Separate the 2 register writes to only enable signals from the fpga to
reach emac0 or emac1 when ptp ref clock is not coming from the fpga.

[ Upstream commit 7717cbec172c3554d470023b4020d5781961187e ]

i2400mu_bus_bm_wait_for_ack() invokes usb_get_urb(), which increases the
refcount of the "notif_urb".

When i2400mu_bus_bm_wait_for_ack() returns, local variable "notif_urb"
becomes invalid, so the refcount should be decreased to keep refcount
balanced.

The issue happens in all paths of i2400mu_bus_bm_wait_for_ack(), which
forget to decrease the refcnt increased by usb_get_urb(), causing a
refcnt leak.

Fix this issue by calling usb_put_urb() before the
i2400mu_bus_bm_wait_for_ack() returns.

commit 8063f761cd7c17fc1d0018728936e0c33a25388a upstream.

The qed_chain data structure was modified in
commit 1a4a69751f4d ("qed: Chain support for external PBL") to support
receiving an external pbl (due to iWARP FW requirements).
The pages pointed to by the pbl are allocated in qed_chain_alloc
and their virtual address are stored in an virtual addresses array to
enable accessing and freeing the data. The physical addresses however
weren't stored and were accessed directly from the external-pbl
during free.

Destroy-qp flow, leads to freeing the external pbl before the chain is
freed, when the chain is freed it tries accessing the already freed
external pbl, leading to a use-after-free. Therefore we need to store
the physical addresses in additional to the virtual addresses in a
new data structure.

Calling queue_delayed_work concurrently with

scheduled task after wq is destroyed or other resources
(like ptt_pool) are freed (yields NULL pointer dereference).
cancel_delayed_work prevents the race by cancelling

[ Upstream commit da722186f6549d752ea5b5fbc18111833c81a133 ]

On some SoCs, such as the i.MX6, it is necessary to set a bit
in the SoC level GPR register before suspending for wake on lan
to work.

The fec platform callback sleep_mode_enable was intended to allow this
but the platform implementation was NAK'd back in 2015 [1]

This means that, currently, wake on lan is broken on mainline for
the i.MX6 at least.

So implement the required bit setting in the fec driver by itself
by adding a new optional DT property indicating the GPR register
and adding the offset and bit information to the driver.

commit a019b36123aec9700b21ae0724710f62928a8bc1 upstream.

On s390 FORCE_MAX_ZONEORDER is 9 instead of 11, thus a larger kzalloc()
allocation as done for the firmware tracer will always fail.

Looking at mlx5_fw_tracer_save_trace(), it is actually the driver itself
that copies the debug data into the trace array and there is no need for
the allocation to be contiguous in physical memory. We can therefor use
kvzalloc() instead of kzalloc() and get rid of the large contiguous
allcoation.
