Current code for RSS_GET ethtool command includes netlink attributes
in reply message to user space even if they are null. Added checks
to include netlink attribute in reply message only if a value is
received from driver. Drivers might return null for RSS indirection
table or hash key. Instead of including attributes with empty value
in the reply message, add netlink attribute only if there is content.

<title>net/ethtool/ioctl: split ethtool_get_phy_stats into multiple helpers</title>

So that it's easier to follow and make sense of the branching and
various conditions.

Stats retrieval has been split into two separate functions
ethtool_get_phy_stats_phydev &amp; ethtool_get_phy_stats_ethtool.
The former attempts to retrieve the stats using phydev &amp; phy_ops, while
the latter uses ethtool_ops.

Actual n_stats validation &amp; array allocation has been moved into a new
ethtool_vzalloc_stats_array helper.

This also fixes a potential NULL dereference of
ops-&gt;get_ethtool_phy_stats where it was getting called in an else branch
unconditionally without making sure it was actually present.

static analysis tool.

return 0 if we didn't actually have any stats. This also allows for
further simplification of this function in the future commits.

<id>b534dc46c8ae0165b1b2509be24dbea4fa9c4011</id>
<content type='text'>
Add an option to initialize SOF_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_ID for TCP from
write_seq sockets instead of snd_una.

This should have been the behavior from the start. Because processes
may now exist that rely on the established behavior, do not change
behavior of the existing option, but add the right behavior with a new
flag. It is encouraged to always set SOF_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_ID_TCP on
stream sockets along with the existing SOF_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_ID.

Intuitively the contract is that the counter is zero after the
setsockopt, so that the next write N results in a notification for
the last byte N - 1.

On idle sockets snd_una == write_seq and this holds for both. But on
sockets with data in transmission, snd_una records the unacked offset
in the stream. This depends on the ACK response from the peer. A
process cannot learn this in a race free manner (ioctl SIOCOUTQ is one
racy approach).

write_seq records the offset at the last byte written by the process.
This is a better starting point. It matches the intuitive contract in
all circumstances, unaffected by external behavior.

The new timestamp flag necessitates increasing sk_tsflags to 32 bits.
Move the field in struct sock to avoid growing the socket (for some
common CONFIG variants). The UAPI interface so_timestamping.flags is
already int, so 32 bits wide.

Add netlink based support for "ethtool -x &lt;dev&gt; [context x]"
command by implementing ETHTOOL_MSG_RSS_GET netlink message.
This is equivalent to functionality provided via ETHTOOL_GRSSH
in ioctl path. It sends RSS table, hash key and hash function
of an interface to user space.

This patch implements existing functionality available
in ioctl path and enables addition of new RSS context
based parameters in future.

The value of an arithmetic expression "n * id.data" is subject
to possible overflow due to a failure to cast operands to a larger data
type before performing arithmetic. Used macro for multiplication instead
operator for avoiding overflow.

If ethtool_ops::get_drvinfo() callback isn't set,
ethtool_get_drvinfo() will fill the ethtool_drvinfo::name and
ethtool_drvinfo::bus_info fields.

However, if the driver provides the callback function, those two
fields are not touched. This means that the driver has to fill these
itself.

Allow the driver to leave those two fields empty and populate them in
such case. This way, the driver can rely on the default values for the
name and the bus_info. If the driver provides values, do nothing.

Without this, traffic could be directed to channels which no longer

The previous attempt to augment carrier_down (see Link)
was not met with much enthusiasm so let's do the simple
thing of exposing what some devices already maintain.
Add a common ethtool statistic for link going down.
Currently users have to maintain per-driver mapping
to extract the right stat from the vendor-specific ethtool -S
stats. carrier_down does not fit the bill because it counts
a lot of software related false positives.

Add the statistic to the extended link state API to steer
vendors towards implementing all of it.

Implement for bnxt and all Linux-controlled PHYs. mlx5 and (possibly)
enic also have a counter for this but I leave the implementation
to their maintainers.
