[ Upstream commit d5b90e99e1d51b7b5d2b74fbc4c2db236a510913 ]

commit fdd41ec21e15 ("devlink: Return right error code in case of errors
for region read") modified the region read code to report errors
properly in unexpected cases.

In the case where the start_offset and ret_offset match, it unilaterally
converted this into an error. This causes an issue for the "dump"
version of the command. In this case, the devlink region dump will
always report an invalid argument:

000000000000ffd0 ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff
000000000000ffe0 ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff
devlink answers: Invalid argument
000000000000fff0 ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff

This occurs because the expected flow for the dump is to return 0 after
there is no further data.

The simplest fix would be to stop converting the error code to -EINVAL
if start_offset == ret_offset. However, avoid unnecessary work by
checking for when start_offset is larger than the region size and
returning 0 upfront.

<title>devlink: Wait longer before warning about unset port type</title>

<id>4c582234ab3948d08a24c82eb1e00436aabacbc6</id>
<content type='text'>
The commit cited below causes devlink to emit a warning if a type was
not set on a devlink port for longer than 30 seconds to "prevent
misbehavior of drivers". This proved to be problematic when
unregistering the backing netdev. The flow is always:

devlink_port_type_clear()	// schedules the warning
unregister_netdev()		// blocking
devlink_port_unregister()	// cancels the warning

The call to unregister_netdev() can block for long periods of time for
various reasons: RTNL lock is contended, large amounts of configuration
to unroll following dismantle of the netdev, etc. This results in
devlink emitting a warning despite the driver behaving correctly.

In emulated environments (of future hardware) which are usually very
slow, the warning can also be emitted during port creation as more than
30 seconds can pass between the time the devlink port is registered and
when its type is set.

In addition, syzbot has hit this warning [1] 1974 times since 07/11/19
without being able to produce a reproducer. Probably because
reproduction depends on the load or other bugs (e.g., RTNL not being
released).

To prevent bogus warnings, increase the timeout to 1 hour.

When setting the dump's time-stamp, use ktime_get_real in addition to
jiffies. This simplifies the user space implementation and bypasses
some inconsistent behavior with translating jiffies to current time.
The time taken is transformed into nsec, to comply with y2038 issue.

There is a race between driver code that does setup/cleanup of device
and devlink reload operation that in some drivers works with the same
code. Use after free could we easily obtained by running:

while true; do
        echo "0000:00:10.0" &gt;/sys/bus/pci/drivers/mlxsw_spectrum2/bind
        devlink dev reload pci/0000:00:10.0 &amp;
        echo "0000:00:10.0" &gt;/sys/bus/pci/drivers/mlxsw_spectrum2/unbind
done

Fix this by enabling reload only after setup of device is complete and
disabling it at the beginning of the cleanup process.
