[ Upstream commit f3fdd4fba16c74697d8bc730b82fb7c1eff7fab3 ]

rpl is passed as a pointer to ethtool_cmis_module_poll(), so the correct
size of rpl is sizeof(*rpl) which should be just 1 byte.  Using the
pointer size instead can cause stack corruption:

[ 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.

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.

<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit 216a61d33c0728a8cf1650aaed2c523c6ce16354 ]

When hds-thresh is configured, ethnl_set_rings() is called, and it calls
ethtool_ringparam_get_cfg() to get ringparameters from .get_ringparam()
callback and dev-&gt;cfg.
Both hds_config and hds_thresh values should be set from dev-&gt;cfg, not
from .get_ringparam().
But ethtool_ringparam_get_cfg() sets only hds_config from dev-&gt;cfg.
So, ethtool_ringparam_get_cfg() returns always a hds_thresh as 0.

If an input value of hds-thresh is 0, a hds_thresh value from
ethtool_ringparam_get_cfg() are same. So ethnl_set_rings() does
nothing and returns immediately.
It causes a bug that setting a hds-thresh value to 0 is not working.

Reproducer:
    modprobe netdevsim
    echo 1 &gt; /sys/bus/netdevsim/new_device
    ethtool -G eth0 hds-thresh 100
    ethtool -G eth0 hds-thresh 0
    ethtool -g eth0
    #hds-thresh value should be 0, but it shows 100.

The tools/testing/selftests/drivers/net/hds.py can test it too with
applying a following patch for hds.py.

Fix missing initialization of ts_info-&gt;phc_index in the dump command,
which could cause a netdev interface to incorrectly display a PTP provider
at index 0 instead of "none".
Fix it by initializing the phc_index to -1.

In the same time, restore missing initialization of ts_info.cmd for the
IOCTL case, as it was before the transition from ethnl_default_dumpit to
custom ethnl_tsinfo_dumpit.

Also, remove unnecessary zeroing of ts_info, as it is embedded within
reply_data, which is fully zeroed two lines earlier.

<title>net: ethtool: netlink: Allow NULL nlattrs when getting a phy_device</title>

<content type='text'>
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.

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.

<title>net: ethtool: fix ioctl confusing drivers about desired HDS user config</title>

The legacy ioctl path does not have support for extended attributes.
So we issue a GET to fetch the current settings from the driver,
in an attempt to keep them unchanged. HDS is a bit "special" as
the GET only returns on/off while the SET takes a "ternary" argument
(on/off/default). If the driver was in the "default" setting -
executing the ioctl path binds it to on or off, even tho the user
did not intend to change HDS config.

Factor the relevant logic out of the netlink code and reuse it.

Fix the netlink type for hardware timestamp flags, which are represented
as a bitset of flags. Although only one flag is supported currently, the
correct netlink bitset type should be used instead of u32 to keep
consistency with other fields. Address this by adding a new named string
set description for the hwtstamp flag structure.

The code has been introduced in the current release so the uAPI change is
still okay.

The info.flow_type is for RXFH commands, ntuple flow_type is inside
the flow spec. The check currently does nothing, as info.flow_type
is 0 (or even uninitialized by user space) for ETHTOOL_SRXCLSRLINS.

<title>ethtool: rss: fix hiding unsupported fields in dumps</title>

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
