[ Upstream commit 92f62485b3715882cd397b0cbd80a96d179b86d6 ]

Normally it is expected that the dsa_device_ops :: rcv() method finishes
parsing the DSA tag and consumes it, then never looks at it again.

But commit c0bcf537667c ("net: dsa: ocelot: add hardware timestamping
support for Felix") added support for RX timestamping in a very
unconventional way. On this switch, a partial timestamp is available in
the DSA header, but the driver got away with not parsing that timestamp
right away, but instead delayed that parsing for a little longer:

dsa_switch_rcv():
	nskb = cpu_dp-&gt;rcv(skb, dev); &lt;------------- not here
	-&gt; ocelot_rcv()
	...

	skb = nskb;
	skb_push(skb, ETH_HLEN);
	skb-&gt;pkt_type = PACKET_HOST;
	skb-&gt;protocol = eth_type_trans(skb, skb-&gt;dev);

	...

	if (dsa_skb_defer_rx_timestamp(p, skb)) &lt;--- but here
	-&gt; felix_rxtstamp()
		return 0;

When in felix_rxtstamp(), this driver accounted for the fact that
eth_type_trans() happened in the meanwhile, so it got a hold of the
extraction header again by subtracting (ETH_HLEN + OCELOT_TAG_LEN) bytes
from the current skb-&gt;data.

This worked for quite some time but was quite fragile from the very
beginning. Not to mention that having DSA tag parsing split in two
different files, under different folders (net/dsa/tag_ocelot.c vs
drivers/net/dsa/ocelot/felix.c) made it quite non-obvious for patches to
come that they might break this.

Finally, the blamed commit does the following: at the end of
ocelot_rcv(), it checks whether the skb payload contains a VLAN header.
If it does, and this port is under a VLAN-aware bridge, that VLAN ID
might not be correct in the sense that the packet might have suffered
VLAN rewriting due to TCAM rules (VCAP IS1). So we consume the VLAN ID
from the skb payload using __skb_vlan_pop(), and take the classified
VLAN ID from the DSA tag, and construct a hwaccel VLAN tag with the
classified VLAN, and the skb payload is VLAN-untagged.

The big problem is that __skb_vlan_pop() does:

	memmove(skb-&gt;data + VLAN_HLEN, skb-&gt;data, 2 * ETH_ALEN);
	__skb_pull(skb, VLAN_HLEN);

aka it moves the Ethernet header 4 bytes to the right, and pulls 4 bytes
from the skb headroom (effectively also moving skb-&gt;data, by definition).
So for felix_rxtstamp()'s fragile logic, all bets are off now.
Instead of having the "extraction" pointer point to the DSA header,
it actually points to 4 bytes _inside_ the extraction header.
Corollary, the last 4 bytes of the "extraction" header are in fact 4
stale bytes of the destination MAC address from the Ethernet header,
from prior to the __skb_vlan_pop() movement.

So of course, RX timestamps are completely bogus when the system is
configured in this way.

The fix is actually very simple: just don't structure the code like that.
For better or worse, the DSA PTP timestamping API does not offer a
straightforward way for drivers to present their RX timestamps, but
other drivers (sja1105) have established a simple mechanism to carry
their RX timestamp from dsa_device_ops :: rcv() all the way to
dsa_switch_ops :: port_rxtstamp() and even later. That mechanism is to
simply save the partial timestamp to the skb-&gt;cb, and complete it later.

Question: why don't we simply populate the skb's struct
skb_shared_hwtstamps from ocelot_rcv(), and bother with this
complication of propagating the timestamp to felix_rxtstamp()?

Answer: dsa_switch_ops :: port_rxtstamp() answers the question whether
PTP packets need sleepable context to retrieve the full RX timestamp.
Currently felix_rxtstamp() answers "no, thanks" to that question, and
calls ocelot_ptp_gettime64() from softirq atomic context. This is
understandable, since Felix VSC9959 is a PCIe memory-mapped switch, so
hardware access does not require sleeping. But the felix driver is
preparing for the introduction of other switches where hardware access
is over a slow bus like SPI or MDIO:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20210814025003.2449143-1-colin.foster@in-advantage.com/

So I would like to keep this code structure, so the rework needed when
that driver will need PTP support will be minimal (answer "yes, I need
deferred context for this skb's RX timestamp", then the partial
timestamp will still be found in the skb-&gt;cb.

[ Upstream commit deab6b1cd9789bb9bd466d5e76aecb8b336259b4 ]

As explained here:
https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20210908220834.d7gmtnwrorhharna@skbuf/
DSA tagging protocol drivers cannot depend on symbols exported by switch
drivers, because this creates a circular dependency that breaks module
autoloading.

The tag_ocelot.c file depends on the ocelot_ptp_rew_op() function
exported by the common ocelot switch lib. This function looks at
OCELOT_SKB_CB(skb) and computes how to populate the REW_OP field of the
DSA tag, for PTP timestamping (the command: one-step/two-step, and the
TX timestamp identifier).

None of that requires deep insight into the driver, it is quite
stateless, as it only depends upon the skb-&gt;cb. So let's make it a
static inline function and put it in include/linux/dsa/ocelot.h, a
file that despite its name is used by the ocelot switch driver for
populating the injection header too - since commit 40d3f295b5fe ("net:
mscc: ocelot: use common tag parsing code with DSA").

With that function declared as static inline, its body is expanded
inside each call site, so the dependency is broken and the DSA tagger
can be built without the switch library, upon which the felix driver
depends.

A packet received on a trunk will have bit 2 set in Forward DSA tagged
frame. Bit 1 can be either 0 or 1 and is otherwise undefined and bit 0
indicates the frame CFI. Masking with 7 thus results in frames as
being identified as being from a trunk when in fact they are not. Fix
the mask to just look at bit 2.

[ Upstream commit 5135e96a3dd2f4555ae6981c3155a62bcf3227f6 ]

The Linux device model permits both the -&gt;shutdown and -&gt;remove driver
methods to get called during a shutdown procedure. Example: a DSA switch
which sits on an SPI bus, and the SPI bus driver calls this on its
-&gt;shutdown method:

spi_unregister_controller
-&gt; device_for_each_child(&amp;ctlr-&gt;dev, NULL, __unregister);
   -&gt; spi_unregister_device(to_spi_device(dev));
      -&gt; device_del(&amp;spi-&gt;dev);

So this is a simple pattern which can theoretically appear on any bus,
although the only other buses on which I've been able to find it are
I2C:

i2c_del_adapter
-&gt; device_for_each_child(&amp;adap-&gt;dev, NULL, __unregister_client);
   -&gt; i2c_unregister_device(client);
      -&gt; device_unregister(&amp;client-&gt;dev);

The implication of this pattern is that devices on these buses can be
unregistered after having been shut down. The drivers for these devices
might choose to return early either from -&gt;remove or -&gt;shutdown if the
other callback has already run once, and they might choose that the
-&gt;shutdown method should only perform a subset of the teardown done by
-&gt;remove (to avoid unnecessary delays when rebooting).

So in other words, the device driver may choose on -&gt;remove to not
do anything (therefore to not unregister an MDIO bus it has registered
on -&gt;probe), because this -&gt;remove is actually triggered by the
device_shutdown path, and its -&gt;shutdown method has already run and done
the minimally required cleanup.

This used to be fine until the blamed commit, but now, the following
BUG_ON triggers:

void mdiobus_free(struct mii_bus *bus)
{
	/* For compatibility with error handling in drivers. */
	if (bus-&gt;state == MDIOBUS_ALLOCATED) {
		kfree(bus);
		return;
	}

	BUG_ON(bus-&gt;state != MDIOBUS_UNREGISTERED);
	bus-&gt;state = MDIOBUS_RELEASED;

	put_device(&amp;bus-&gt;dev);
}

In other words, there is an attempt to free an MDIO bus which was not
unregistered. The attempt to free it comes from the devres release
callbacks of the SPI device, which are executed after the device is
unregistered.

I'm not saying that the fact that MDIO buses allocated using devres
would automatically get unregistered wasn't strange. I'm just saying
that the commit didn't care about auditing existing call paths in the
kernel, and now, the following code sequences are potentially buggy:

(a) devm_mdiobus_alloc followed by plain mdiobus_register, for a device
    located on a bus that unregisters its children on shutdown. After
    the blamed patch, either both the alloc and the register should use
    devres, or none should.

(b) devm_mdiobus_alloc followed by plain mdiobus_register, and then no
    mdiobus_unregister at all in the remove path. After the blamed
    patch, nobody unregisters the MDIO bus anymore, so this is even more
    buggy than the previous case which needs a specific bus
    configuration to be seen, this one is an unconditional bug.

In this case, DSA falls into category (a), it tries to be helpful and
registers an MDIO bus on behalf of the switch, which might be on such a
bus. I've no idea why it does it under devres.

It does this on probe:

	if (!ds-&gt;slave_mii_bus &amp;&amp; ds-&gt;ops-&gt;phy_read)
		alloc and register mdio bus

and this on remove:

	if (ds-&gt;slave_mii_bus &amp;&amp; ds-&gt;ops-&gt;phy_read)
		unregister mdio bus

I _could_ imagine using devres because the condition used on remove is
different than the condition used on probe. So strictly speaking, DSA
cannot determine whether the ds-&gt;slave_mii_bus it sees on remove is the
ds-&gt;slave_mii_bus that _it_ has allocated on probe. Using devres would
have solved that problem. But nonetheless, the existing code already
proceeds to unregister the MDIO bus, even though it might be
unregistering an MDIO bus it has never registered. So I can only guess
that no driver that implements ds-&gt;ops-&gt;phy_read also allocates and
registers ds-&gt;slave_mii_bus itself.

So in that case, if unregistering is fine, freeing must be fine too.

Stop using devres and free the MDIO bus manually. This will make devres
stop attempting to free a still registered MDIO bus on -&gt;shutdown.

<title>net: dsa: tear down devlink port regions when tearing down the devlink port on error</title>

[ Upstream commit fd292c189a979838622d5e03e15fa688c81dd50b ]

Commit 86f8b1c01a0a ("net: dsa: Do not make user port errors fatal")
decided it was fine to ignore errors on certain ports that fail to
probe, and go on with the ports that do probe fine.

Commit fb6ec87f7229 ("net: dsa: Fix type was not set for devlink port")
noticed that devlink_port_type_eth_set(dlp, dp-&gt;slave); does not get
called, and devlink notices after a timeout of 3600 seconds and prints a
WARN_ON. So it went ahead to unregister the devlink port. And because
there exists an UNUSED port flavour, we actually re-register the devlink
port as UNUSED.

Commit 08156ba430b4 ("net: dsa: Add devlink port regions support to
DSA") added devlink port regions, which are set up by the driver and not
by DSA.

When we trigger the devlink port deregistration and reregistration as
unused, devlink now prints another WARN_ON, from here:

devlink_port_unregister:
	WARN_ON(!list_empty(&amp;devlink_port-&gt;region_list));

So the port still has regions, which makes sense, because they were set
up by the driver, and the driver doesn't know we're unregistering the
devlink port.

Somebody needs to tear them down, and optionally (actually it would be
nice, to be consistent) set them up again for the new devlink port.

But DSA's layering stays in our way quite badly here.

The options I've considered are:

1. Introduce a function in devlink to just change a port's type and
   flavour. No dice, devlink keeps a lot of state, it really wants the
   port to not be registered when you set its parameters, so changing
   anything can only be done by destroying what we currently have and
   recreating it.

2. Make DSA cache the parameters passed to dsa_devlink_port_region_create,
   and the region returned, keep those in a list, then when the devlink
   port unregister needs to take place, the existing devlink regions are
   destroyed by DSA, and we replay the creation of new regions using the
   cached parameters. Problem: mv88e6xxx keeps the region pointers in
   chip-&gt;ports[port].region, and these will remain stale after DSA frees
   them. There are many things DSA can do, but updating mv88e6xxx's
   private pointers is not one of them.

3. Just let the driver do it (i.e. introduce a very specific method
   called ds-&gt;ops-&gt;port_reinit_as_unused, which unregisters its devlink
   port devlink regions, then the old devlink port, then registers the
   new one, then the devlink port regions for it). While it does work,
   as opposed to the others, it's pretty horrible from an API
   perspective and we can do better.

4. Introduce a new pair of methods, -&gt;port_setup and -&gt;port_teardown,
   which in the case of mv88e6xxx must register and unregister the
   devlink port regions. Call these 2 methods when the port must be
   reinitialized as unused.

Naturally, I went for the 4th approach.

[ Upstream commit 0e90dfa7a8d817db755c7b5d89d77b9c485e4180 ]

I noticed that only port 0 worked on the RTL8366RB since we
started to use custom tags.

It turns out that the format of egress custom tags is actually
different from ingress custom tags. While the lower bits just
contain the port number in ingress tags, egress tags need to
indicate destination port by setting the bit for the
corresponding port.

It was working on port 0 because port 0 added 0x00 as port
number in the lower bits, and if you do this the packet appears
at all ports, including the intended port. Ooops.

Fix this and all ports work again. Use the define for shifting
the "type A" into place while we're at it.

Tested on the D-Link DIR-685 by sending traffic to each of
the ports in turn. It works.
