[ Upstream commit 8b0587a885fdb34fd6090a3f8625cb7ac1444826 ]

When port buffer headroom changes, port_update_shared_buffer()
recalculates the shared buffer size and splits it in a 3:1 ratio
(lossy:lossless) - Currently, the calculation is:
lossless = shared / 4;
lossy = (shared / 4) * 3;

Meaning, the calculation dropped the remainder of shared % 4 due to
integer division, unintentionally reducing the total shared buffer
by up to three cells on each update. Over time, this could shrink
the buffer below usable size.

Fix it by changing the calculation to:
lossless = shared / 4;
lossy = shared - lossless;

This retains all buffer cells while still approximating the
intended 3:1 split, preventing capacity loss over time.

While at it, perform headroom calculations in units of cells rather than
in bytes for more accurate calculations avoiding extra divisions.

[ Upstream commit 8c5d95988c34f0aeba1f34cd5e4ba69494c90c5f ]

Octeontx2/CN10K silicon supports generating a 256-bit key per packet.
The specific fields to be extracted from a packet for key generation
are configurable via a Key Extraction (MKEX) Profile.

The AF driver scans the configured extraction profile to ensure that
fields from upper layers do not overwrite fields from lower layers in
the key.

Example Packet Field Layout:
LA: DMAC + SMAC
LB: VLAN
LC: IPv4/IPv6
LD: TCP/UDP

Valid MKEX Profile Configuration:

LA   -&gt; DMAC   -&gt; key_offset[0-5]
LC   -&gt; SIP    -&gt; key_offset[20-23]
LD   -&gt; SPORT  -&gt; key_offset[30-31]

Invalid MKEX profile configuration:

LA   -&gt; DMAC   -&gt; key_offset[0-5]
LC   -&gt; SIP    -&gt; key_offset[20-23]
LD   -&gt; SPORT  -&gt; key_offset[2-3]  // Overlaps with DMAC field

In another scenario, if the MKEX profile is configured to extract
the SPI field from both AH and ESP headers at the same key offset,
the driver rejecting this configuration. In a regular traffic,
ipsec packet will be having either AH(LD) or ESP (LE). This patch
relaxes the check for the same.

<title>bonding: send LACPDUs periodically in passive mode after receiving partner's LACPDU</title>

[ Upstream commit 0599640a21e98f0d6a3e9ff85c0a687c90a8103b ]

When `lacp_active` is set to `off`, the bond operates in passive mode, meaning
it only "speaks when spoken to." However, the current kernel implementation
only sends an LACPDU in response when the partner's state changes.

As a result, once LACP negotiation succeeds, the actor stops sending LACPDUs
until the partner times out and sends an "expired" LACPDU. This causes
continuous LACP state flapping.

According to IEEE 802.1AX-2014, 6.4.13 Periodic Transmission machine. The
values of Partner_Oper_Port_State.LACP_Activity and
Actor_Oper_Port_State.LACP_Activity determine whether periodic transmissions
take place. If either or both parameters are set to Active LACP, then periodic
transmissions occur; if both are set to Passive LACP, then periodic
transmissions do not occur.

To comply with this, we remove the `!bond-&gt;params.lacp_active` check in
`ad_periodic_machine()`. Instead, we initialize the actor's port's
`LACP_STATE_LACP_ACTIVITY` state based on `lacp_active` setting.

Additionally, we avoid setting the partner's state to
`LACP_STATE_LACP_ACTIVITY` in the EXPIRED state, since we should not assume
the partner is active by default.

This ensures that in passive mode, the bond starts sending periodic LACPDUs
after receiving one from the partner, and avoids flapping due to inactivity.

<title>bonding: Add independent control state machine</title>

[ Upstream commit 240fd405528bbf7fafa0559202ca7aa524c9cd96 ]

Add support for the independent control state machine per IEEE
802.1AX-2008 5.4.15 in addition to the existing implementation of the
coupled control state machine.

Introduces two new states, AD_MUX_COLLECTING and AD_MUX_DISTRIBUTING in
the LACP MUX state machine for separated handling of an initial
Collecting state before the Collecting and Distributing state. This
enables a port to be in a state where it can receive incoming packets
while not still distributing. This is useful for reducing packet loss when
a port begins distributing before its partner is able to collect.

Added new functions such as bond_set_slave_tx_disabled_flags and
bond_set_slave_rx_enabled_flags to precisely manage the port's collecting
and distributing states. Previously, there was no dedicated method to
disable TX while keeping RX enabled, which this patch addresses.

Note that the regular flow process in the kernel's bonding driver remains
unaffected by this patch. The extension requires explicit opt-in by the
user (in order to ensure no disruptions for existing setups) via netlink
support using the new bonding parameter coupled_control. The default value
for coupled_control is set to 1 so as to preserve existing behaviour.

[ Upstream commit 1468c1f97cf32418e34dbb40b784ed9333b9e123 ]

Device ID comparison in igc_is_device_id_i226 is performed before
the ID is set, resulting in always failing check on init.

Before the patch:
* L1.2 is not disabled on init
* L1.2 is properly disabled after suspend-resume cycle

With the patch:
* L1.2 is properly disabled both on init and after suspend-resume

How to test:
Connect to the 1G link with 300+ mbit/s Internet speed, and run
the download speed test, such as:

    curl -o /dev/null http://speedtest.selectel.ru/1GB

Without L1.2 disabled, the speed would be no more than ~200 mbit/s.
With L1.2 disabled, the speed would reach 1 gbit/s.
Note: it's required that the latency between your host and the remote
be around 3-5 ms, the test inside LAN (&lt;1 ms latency) won't trigger the
issue.

[ Upstream commit 1468c1f97cf32418e34dbb40b784ed9333b9e123 ]

Device ID comparison in igc_is_device_id_i226 is performed before
the ID is set, resulting in always failing check on init.

Before the patch:
* L1.2 is not disabled on init
* L1.2 is properly disabled after suspend-resume cycle

With the patch:
* L1.2 is properly disabled both on init and after suspend-resume

How to test:
Connect to the 1G link with 300+ mbit/s Internet speed, and run
the download speed test, such as:

    curl -o /dev/null http://speedtest.selectel.ru/1GB

Without L1.2 disabled, the speed would be no more than ~200 mbit/s.
With L1.2 disabled, the speed would reach 1 gbit/s.
Note: it's required that the latency between your host and the remote
be around 3-5 ms, the test inside LAN (&lt;1 ms latency) won't trigger the
issue.

[ Upstream commit 4d4d9ef9dfee877d494e5418f68a1016ef08cad6 ]

Resolve the budget negative overflow which leads to returning true in
ixgbe_xmit_zc even when the budget of descs are thoroughly consumed.

Before this patch, when the budget is decreased to zero and finishes
sending the last allowed desc in ixgbe_xmit_zc, it will always turn back
and enter into the while() statement to see if it should keep processing
packets, but in the meantime it unexpectedly decreases the value again to
'unsigned int (0--)', namely, UINT_MAX. Finally, the ixgbe_xmit_zc returns
true, showing 'we complete cleaning the budget'. That also means
'clean_complete = true' in ixgbe_poll.

The true theory behind this is if that budget number of descs are consumed,
it implies that we might have more descs to be done. So we should return
false in ixgbe_xmit_zc to tell napi poll to find another chance to start
polling to handle the rest of descs. On the contrary, returning true here
means job done and we know we finish all the possible descs this time and
we don't intend to start a new napi poll.

It is apparently against our expectations. Please also see how
ixgbe_clean_tx_irq() handles the problem: it uses do..while() statement
to make sure the budget can be decreased to zero at most and the negative
overflow never happens.

The patch adds 'likely' because we rarely would not hit the loop condition
since the standard budget is 256.

<title>gve: prevent ethtool ops after shutdown</title>

[ Upstream commit 75a9a46d67f46d608205888f9b34e315c1786345 ]

A crash can occur if an ethtool operation is invoked
after shutdown() is called.

shutdown() is invoked during system shutdown to stop DMA operations
without performing expensive deallocations. It is discouraged to
unregister the netdev in this path, so the device may still be visible
to userspace and kernel helpers.

In gve, shutdown() tears down most internal data structures. If an
ethtool operation is dispatched after shutdown(), it will dereference
freed or NULL pointers, leading to a kernel panic. While graceful
shutdown normally quiesces userspace before invoking the reboot
syscall, forced shutdowns (as observed on GCP VMs) can still trigger
this path.

Fix by calling netif_device_detach() in shutdown().
This marks the device as detached so the ethtool ioctl handler
will skip dispatching operations to the driver.

[ Upstream commit 24ef2f53c07f273bad99173e27ee88d44d135b1c ]

Syzbot reported shift-out-of-bounds exception on MDIO bus initialization.

The PHY address should be masked to 5 bits (0-31). Without this
mask, invalid PHY addresses could be used, potentially causing issues
with MDIO bus operations.

Fix this by masking the PHY address with 0x1f (31 decimal) to ensure
it stays within the valid range.
