drivers/net/wan: lapb: Corrected the usage of skb_cow

2020-07-25T03:17:42+00:00

This patch fixed 2 issues with the usage of skb_cow in LAPB drivers
"lapbether" and "hdlc_x25":

1) After skb_cow fails, kfree_skb should be called to drop a reference
to the skb. But in both drivers, kfree_skb is not called.

2) skb_cow should be called before skb_push so that is can ensure the
safety of skb_push. But in "lapbether", it is incorrectly called after
skb_push.

More details about these 2 issues:

1) The behavior of calling kfree_skb on failure is also the behavior of
netif_rx, which is called by this function with "return netif_rx(skb);".
So this function should follow this behavior, too.

2) In "lapbether", skb_cow is called after skb_push. This results in 2
logical issues:
   a) skb_push is not protected by skb_cow;
   b) An extra headroom of 1 byte is ensured after skb_push. This extra
      headroom has no use in this function. It also has no use in the
      upper-layer function that this function passes the skb to
      (x25_lapb_receive_frame in net/x25/x25_dev.c).
So logically skb_cow should instead be called before skb_push.

xen-netfront: fix potential deadlock in xennet_remove()

2020-07-25T00:02:01+00:00

There's a potential race in xennet_remove(); this is what the driver is
doing upon unregistering a network device:

  1. state = read bus state
  2. if state is not "Closed":
  3.    request to set state to "Closing"
  4.    wait for state to be set to "Closing"
  5.    request to set state to "Closed"
  6.    wait for state to be set to "Closed"

If the state changes to "Closed" immediately after step 1 we are stuck
forever in step 4, because the state will never go back from "Closed" to
"Closing".

Make sure to check also for state == "Closed" in step 4 to prevent the
deadlock.

Also add a 5 sec timeout any time we wait for the bus state to change,
to avoid getting stuck forever in wait_event().

geneve: fix an uninitialized value in geneve_changelink()

2020-07-23T22:19:58+00:00

geneve_nl2info() sets 'df' conditionally, so we have to

device in geneve_changelink().

bonding: check return value of register_netdevice() in bond_newlink()

Very similar to commit 544f287b8495

we should immediately check the return value of register_netdevice()
before doing anything else.

net: atlantic: fix PTP on AQC10X

2020-07-23T01:15:07+00:00

This patch fixes PTP on AQC10X.
PTP support on AQC10X requires FW involvement and FW configures the
TPS data arb mode itself.
So we must make sure driver doesn't touch TPS data arb mode on AQC10x
if PTP is enabled. Otherwise, there are no timestamps even though
packets are flowing.

enetc: Remove the mdio bus on PF probe bailout

2020-07-23T00:51:13+00:00

For ENETC ports that register an external MDIO bus,
the bus doesn't get removed on the error bailout path
of enetc_pf_probe().

This issue became much more visible after recent:
commit 07095c025ac2 ("net: enetc: Use DT protocol information to set up the ports")
Before this commit, one could make probing fail on the error
path only by having register_netdev() fail, which is unlikely.
But after this commit, because it moved the enetc_of_phy_get()
call up in the probing sequence, now we can trigger an mdiobus_free()
bug just by forcing enetc_alloc_msix() to return error, i.e. with the
'pci=nomsi' kernel bootarg (since ENETC relies on MSI support to work),
as the calltrace below shows:

net: ethernet: ti: add NETIF_F_HW_TC hw feature flag for taprio offload

2020-07-22T01:32:34+00:00

Currently drive supports taprio offload which is a tc feature offloaded
to cpsw hardware. So driver has to set the hw feature flag, NETIF_F_HW_TC
in the net device to be compliant. This patch adds the flag.
