[ Upstream commit 8957261cd8149ed9d0738c01c0320bcbff989407 ]

The ETHTOOL_A_PLCA_ENABLED data type is u8. But while parsing the
value from the attribute, nla_get_u32() is used in the plca_update_sint()
function instead of nla_get_u8(). So plca_cfg.enabled variable is updated
with some garbage value instead of 0 or 1 and always enables plca even
though plca is disabled through ethtool application. This bug has been
fixed by parsing the values based on the attributes type in the policy.

New users of dev_get_by_index() and dev_get_by_name() keep
getting added and it would be nice to steer them towards
the APIs with reference tracking.

Add variants of those calls which allocate the reference
tracker and use them in a couple of places.

sopass won't be set if wolopt doesn't change. This means the following

ethtool -s eth0 wol s sopass 22:44:55:66:77:88

<title>net: ethtool: don't require empty header nests</title>

Ethtool currently requires a header nest (which is used to carry
the common family options) in all requests including dumps.

  $ cli.py --spec netlink/specs/ethtool.yaml --dump channels-get
  lib.ynl.NlError: Netlink error: Invalid argument
  nl_len = 64 (48) nl_flags = 0x300 nl_type = 2
	error: -22      extack: {'msg': 'request header missing'}

  $ cli.py --spec netlink/specs/ethtool.yaml --dump channels-get \
           --json '{"header":{}}';  )
  [{'combined-count': 1,
    'combined-max': 1,
    'header': {'dev-index': 2, 'dev-name': 'enp1s0'}}]

Requiring the header nest to always be there may seem nice
from the consistency perspective, but it's not serving any
practical purpose. We shouldn't burden the user like this.

The netlink version of set_wol checks for not supported wolopts and avoids
setting wol when the correct wolopt is already set. If we do the same with
the ioctl version then we can remove these checks from the driver layer.

<title>ethtool: Fix uninitialized number of lanes</title>

<id>9ad685dbfe7e856bbf17a7177b64676d324d6ed7</id>
<content type='text'>
It is not possible to set the number of lanes when setting link modes
using the legacy IOCTL ethtool interface. Since 'struct
ethtool_link_ksettings' is not initialized in this path, drivers receive
an uninitialized number of lanes in 'struct
ethtool_link_ksettings::lanes'.

When this information is later queried from drivers, it results in the
ethtool code making decisions based on uninitialized memory, leading to
the following KMSAN splat [1]. In practice, this most likely only
happens with the tun driver that simply returns whatever it got in the
set operation.

As far as I can tell, this uninitialized memory is not leaked to user
space thanks to the 'ethtool_ops-&gt;cap_link_lanes_supported' check in
linkmodes_prepare_data().

Fix by initializing the structure in the IOCTL path. Did not find any
more call sites that pass an uninitialized structure when calling
'ethtool_ops::set_link_ksettings()'.

<title>net: ethtool: coalesce: try to make user settings stick twice</title>

SET_COALESCE may change operation mode and parameters in one call.
Changing operation mode may cause the driver to reset the parameter
values to what is a reasonable default for new operation mode.

Since driver does not know which parameters come from user and which
are echoed back from -&gt;get, driver may ignore the parameters when
switching operation modes.

This used to be inevitable for ioctl() but in netlink we know which
parameters are actually specified by the user.

We could inform which parameters were set by the user but this would
lead to a lot of code duplication in the drivers. Instead try to call
the drivers twice if both mode and params are changed. The set method
already checks if any params need updating so in case the driver did
the right thing the first time around - there will be no second call
to it's -&gt;set method (only an extra call to -&gt;get()).

For mlx5 for example before this patch we'd see:

 # ethtool -C eth0 adaptive-rx on  adaptive-tx on
 # ethtool -C eth0 adaptive-rx off adaptive-tx off \
		   tx-usecs 123 rx-usecs 123
 Adaptive RX: off  TX: off
 rx-usecs: 3
 rx-frames: 32
 tx-usecs: 16
 tx-frames: 32
 [...]

After the change:

 # ethtool -C eth0 adaptive-rx on  adaptive-tx on
 # ethtool -C eth0 adaptive-rx off adaptive-tx off \
		   tx-usecs 123 rx-usecs 123
 Adaptive RX: off  TX: off
 rx-usecs: 123
 rx-frames: 32
 tx-usecs: 123
 tx-frames: 32
 [...]

This only works for netlink, so it's a small discrepancy between
netlink and ioctl(). Since we anticipate most users to move to
netlink I believe it's worth making their lives easier.

<title>net: ethtool: mm: sanitize some UAPI configurations</title>

The verify-enabled boolean (ETHTOOL_A_MM_VERIFY_ENABLED) was intended to
be a sub-setting of tx-enabled (ETHTOOL_A_MM_TX_ENABLED). IOW, MAC Merge
TX can be enabled with or without verification, but verification with TX
disabled makes no sense.

The pmac-enabled boolean (ETHTOOL_A_MM_PMAC_ENABLED) was intended to be
a global toggle from an API perspective, whereas tx-enabled just handles
the TX direction. IOW, the pMAC can be enabled with or without TX, but
it doesn't make sense to enable TX if the pMAC is not enabled.

Add two checks which sanitize and reject these invalid cases.

Create a wrapper over __ethtool_dev_mm_supported() which also calls
ethnl_ops_begin() and ethnl_ops_complete(). It can be used by other code
layers, such as tc, to make sure that preemptible TCs are supported
(this is true if an underlying MAC Merge layer exists).
