[ Upstream commit eaa517b77e63442260640d875f824d1111ca6569 ]

The 'read_write_len_ext' field in 'struct ethtool_cmis_cdb_cmd_args'
stores the maximum number of bytes that can be read from or written to
the Local Payload (LPL) page in a single multi-byte access.

Cited commit started overwriting this field with the maximum number of
bytes that can be read from or written to the Extended Payload (LPL)
pages in a single multi-byte access. Transceiver modules that support
auto paging can advertise a number larger than 255 which is problematic
as 'read_write_len_ext' is a 'u8', resulting in the number getting
truncated and firmware flashing failing [1].

Fix by ignoring the maximum EPL access size as the kernel does not
currently support auto paging (even if the transceiver module does) and
will not try to read / write more than 128 bytes at once.

[ Upstream commit 4f038a6a02d20859a3479293cbf172b0f14cbdd6 ]

There's a consistent pattern where the .cleanup_data() callback is
called when .prepare_data() fails, when it should really be called to
clean after a successful .prepare_data() as per the documentation.

Rewrite the error-handling paths to make sure we don't cleanup
un-prepared data.

[ Upstream commit 637399bf7e77797811adf340090b561a8f9d1213 ]

ethnl_req_get_phydev() is used to lookup a phy_device, in the case an
ethtool netlink command targets a specific phydev within a netdev's
topology.

It takes as a parameter a const struct nlattr *header that's used for
error handling :

       if (!phydev) {
               NL_SET_ERR_MSG_ATTR(extack, header,
                                   "no phy matching phyindex");
               return ERR_PTR(-ENODEV);
       }

In the notify path after a -&gt;set operation however, there's no request
attributes available.

The typical callsite for the above function looks like:

	phydev = ethnl_req_get_phydev(req_base, tb[ETHTOOL_A_XXX_HEADER],
				      info-&gt;extack);

So, when tb is NULL (such as in the ethnl notify path), we have a nice
crash.

It turns out that there's only the PLCA command that is in that case, as
the other phydev-specific commands don't have a notification.

This commit fixes the crash by passing the cmd index and the nlattr
array separately, allowing NULL-checking it directly inside the helper.

[ Upstream commit b7a2c1fe6b55364e61b4b54b991eb43a47bb1104 ]

Introduce support for standardized PHY statistics reporting in ethtool
by extending the PHYLIB framework. Add the functions
phy_ethtool_get_phy_stats() and phy_ethtool_get_link_ext_stats() to
provide a consistent interface for retrieving PHY-level and
link-specific statistics. These functions are used within the ethtool
implementation to avoid direct access to the phy_device structure
outside of the PHYLIB framework.

A new structure, ethtool_phy_stats, is introduced to standardize PHY
statistics such as packet counts, byte counts, and error counters.
Drivers are updated to include callbacks for retrieving PHY and
link-specific statistics, ensuring values are explicitly set only for
supported fields, initialized with ETHTOOL_STAT_NOT_SET to avoid
ambiguity.

Adapt linkstate_get_sqi() and linkstate_get_sqi_max() to take a

multiple PHYs. The previous assumption of a single PHY attached to
a net_device no longer holds.

Use ethnl_req_get_phydev() to identify the appropriate PHY device
for the operation. Update linkstate_prepare_data() and related
logic to accommodate this change, ensuring compatibility with
multi-PHY configurations.

[ Upstream commit 244f8aa46fa9e2f4ea5fe0e04988b395d5e30fc7 ]

Commit ec6e57beaf8b ("ethtool: rss: don't report key if device
doesn't support it") intended to stop reporting key fields for
additional rss contexts if device has a global hashing key.

Later we added dump support and the filtering wasn't properly
added there. So we end up reporting the key fields in dumps
but not in dos:

  # ./pyynl/cli.py --spec netlink/specs/ethtool.yaml --do rss-get \
		--json '{"header": {"dev-index":2}, "context": 1 }'
  {
     "header": { ... },
     "context": 1,
     "indir": [0, 1, 2, 3, ...]]
  }

  # ./pyynl/cli.py --spec netlink/specs/ethtool.yaml --dump rss-get
  [
     ... snip context 0 ...
     { "header": { ... },
       "context": 1,
       "indir": [0, 1, 2, 3, ...],
 -&gt;    "input_xfrm": 255,
 -&gt;    "hfunc": 1,
 -&gt;    "hkey": "000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000"
     }
  ]

Hide these fields correctly.

The drivers/net/hw/rss_ctx.py selftest catches this when run on
a device with single key, already:

  # Check| At /root/./ksft-net-drv/drivers/net/hw/rss_ctx.py, line 381, in test_rss_context_dump:
  # Check|     ksft_ne(set(data.get('hkey', [1])), {0}, "key is all zero")
  # Check failed {0} == {0} key is all zero
  not ok 8 rss_ctx.test_rss_context_dump

[ Upstream commit 244f8aa46fa9e2f4ea5fe0e04988b395d5e30fc7 ]

Commit ec6e57beaf8b ("ethtool: rss: don't report key if device
doesn't support it") intended to stop reporting key fields for
additional rss contexts if device has a global hashing key.

Later we added dump support and the filtering wasn't properly
added there. So we end up reporting the key fields in dumps
but not in dos:

  # ./pyynl/cli.py --spec netlink/specs/ethtool.yaml --do rss-get \
		--json '{"header": {"dev-index":2}, "context": 1 }'
  {
     "header": { ... },
     "context": 1,
     "indir": [0, 1, 2, 3, ...]]
  }

  # ./pyynl/cli.py --spec netlink/specs/ethtool.yaml --dump rss-get
  [
     ... snip context 0 ...
     { "header": { ... },
       "context": 1,
       "indir": [0, 1, 2, 3, ...],
 -&gt;    "input_xfrm": 255,
 -&gt;    "hfunc": 1,
 -&gt;    "hkey": "000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000"
     }
  ]

Hide these fields correctly.

The drivers/net/hw/rss_ctx.py selftest catches this when run on
a device with single key, already:

  # Check| At /root/./ksft-net-drv/drivers/net/hw/rss_ctx.py, line 381, in test_rss_context_dump:
  # Check|     ksft_ne(set(data.get('hkey', [1])), {0}, "key is all zero")
  # Check failed {0} == {0} key is all zero
  not ok 8 rss_ctx.test_rss_context_dump

[ Upstream commit 4f5a52adeb1ad675ca33f1e1eacd9c0bbaf393d4 ]

The sanity check that both source and destination are set when symmetric
RSS hash is requested is only relevant for ETHTOOL_SRXFH (rx-flow-hash),
it should not be performed on any other commands (e.g.
ETHTOOL_SRXCLSRLINS/ETHTOOL_SRXCLSRLDEL).

This resolves accessing uninitialized 'info.data' field, and fixes false
errors in rule insertion:
  # ethtool --config-ntuple eth2 flow-type ip4 dst-ip 255.255.255.255 action -1 loc 0
  rmgr: Cannot insert RX class rule: Invalid argument
  Cannot insert classification rule

<title>net: avoid race between device unregistration and ethnl ops</title>

[ Upstream commit 12e070eb6964b341b41677fd260af5a305316a1f ]

The following trace can be seen if a device is being unregistered while
its number of channels are being modified.

  DEBUG_LOCKS_WARN_ON(lock-&gt;magic != lock)
  WARNING: CPU: 3 PID: 3754 at kernel/locking/mutex.c:564 __mutex_lock+0xc8a/0x1120

  RIP: 0010:__mutex_lock+0xc8a/0x1120

   do_syscall_64+0x95/0x180
   entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x76/0x7e

This is because unregister_netdevice_many_notify might run before the
rtnl lock section of ethnl operations, eg. set_channels in the above
example. In this example the rss lock would be destroyed by the device
unregistration path before being used again, but in general running
ethnl operations while dismantle has started is not a good idea.

Fix this by denying any operation on devices being unregistered. A check
was already there in ethnl_ops_begin, but not wide enough.

Note that the same issue cannot be seen on the ioctl version
(__dev_ethtool) because the device reference is retrieved from within
the rtnl lock section there. Once dismantle started, the net device is
unlisted and no reference will be found.

<title>ethtool: Fix wrong mod state in case of verbose and no_mask bitset</title>

<id>910c4788d6155b2202ec88273376cd7ecdc24f0a</id>
<content type='text'>
A bitset without mask in a _SET request means we want exactly the bits in
the bitset to be set. This works correctly for compact format but when
verbose format is parsed, ethnl_update_bitset32_verbose() only sets the
bits present in the request bitset but does not clear the rest. The commit
6699170376ab ("ethtool: fix application of verbose no_mask bitset") fixes
this issue by clearing the whole target bitmap before we start iterating.
The solution proposed brought an issue with the behavior of the mod
variable. As the bitset is always cleared the old value will always
differ to the new value.

Fix it by adding a new function to compare bitmaps and a temporary variable
which save the state of the old bitmap.
