When performing segmentation, the mac_len value is copied right
out of the original skb. However, this value is not always set correctly
(like when the packet is VLAN-tagged) and we'll end up copying a bad
value.
One way to demonstrate this is to configure a VM which tags
packets internally and turn off VLAN acceleration on the forwarding
bridge port. The packets show up corrupt like this:
16:18:24.985548 52:54:00🆎be:25 > 52:54:00:26:ce:a3, ethertype 802.1Q
(0x8100), length 1518: vlan 100, p 0, ethertype 0x05e0,

0x0060: 6572 6600 6e65 7470 6572 6600 6e65 7470 erf.netperf.netp
...
This also leads to awful throughput as GSO packets are dropped and
cause retransmissions.
The solution is to set the mac_len using the values already available
in then new skb. We've already adjusted all of the header offset, so we
might as well correctly figure out the mac_len using skb_reset_mac_len().
After this change, packets are segmented correctly and performance
is restored.

xen-netfront: more multiqueue fixes
A few more xen-netfront fixes for the multiqueue support added in
3.16-rc1. It would be great if these could make it into 3.16 but I
suspect it's a little late for that now.
The second patch fixes a significant resource leak that prevents

Since netfront may reconnect to a backend with a different number of
queues, all per-queue Rx and Tx resources (skbs and grant references)
should be freed when disconnecting.
Without this fix, the Tx and Rx grant refs are not released and
netfront will exhaust them after only a few reconnections. netfront
will fail to connect when no free grant references are available.
Since all Rx bufs are freed and reallocated instead of reused this
will add some additional delay to the reconnection but this is
expected to be small compared to the time taken by any backend hotplug
scripts etc.

1) We don't allocate enough space for the NUL terminator so we end up
corrupting one character beyond the end of the buffer.
2) The "len - 1" should just be "len". The code is trying to copy a
word from a buffer up to a comma or the last word in the buffer.
Say you have the buffer, "foo,bar,baz", then this code truncates the
last letter off each word so you get "fo", "ba", and "ba". You would
hope this kind of bug would get noticed in testing...
I'm not very familiar with this code and I can't test it, but I think
we should copy the final character.

The SCTP socket extensions API document describes the v4mapping option as
follows:
8.1.15. Set/Clear IPv4 Mapped Addresses (SCTP_I_WANT_MAPPED_V4_ADDR)
This socket option is a Boolean flag which turns on or off the
mapping of IPv4 addresses. If this option is turned on, then IPv4
addresses will be mapped to V6 representation. If this option is
turned off, then no mapping will be done of V4 addresses and a user
will receive both PF_INET6 and PF_INET type addresses on the socket.
See [RFC3542] for more details on mapped V6 addresses.
This description isn't really in line with what the code does though.
Introduce addr_to_user (renamed addr_v4map), which should be called
before any sockaddr is passed back to user space. The new function
places the sockaddr into the correct format depending on the
SCTP_I_WANT_MAPPED_V4_ADDR option.
Audit all places that touched v4mapped and either sanely construct
a v4 or v6 address then call addr_to_user, or drop the
unnecessary v4mapped check entirely.
Audit all places that call addr_to_user and verify they are on a sycall
return path.
Add a custom getname that formats the address properly.
Several bugs are addressed:
- SCTP_I_WANT_MAPPED_V4_ADDR=0 often returned garbage for
addresses to user space
- The addr_len returned from recvmsg was not correct when
returning AF_INET on a v6 socket
- flowlabel and scope_id were not zerod when promoting
a v4 to v6
- Some syscalls like bind and connect behaved differently
depending on v4mapped
Tested bind, getpeername, getsockname, connect, and recvmsg for proper
behaviour in v4mapped = 1 and 0 cases.

net: stmmac: Improve mcast/ucast filter for snps
This patch series adds Synopsys specific bindings for the Synopsys EMAC
filter characteristics since those are implementation dependent. The
multicast and unicast filtering code was improved to handle different
configuration variations based on device tree settings.
I verified the operation of the multicast and unicast filters through
Synopsys support as requested during the V1 review, and tested the GMAC
configuration on an Altera Cyclone 5 SOC (which supports 256 multicast
bins and 128 Unicast addresses). The 10/100 variant of this driver
modification was not tested, although it was compile tested. I shared
the email thread results of the investigation through Synopsys with the
stmmac maintainer.
V4: Remove patch from series that addressed a sparse issue from a
down rev'd version of sparse that does not show up in the
latest version of sparse.
V3: Break up the patch into interface and functional change patches
per review comments
V2: Confirm with Synopsys methods to determine number of Multicast bins
and Unicast address filter entries per first round review comments.

This patch adds and modifies code to support multiple Multicast and Unicast
Synopsys MAC filter configurations. The default configuration is defined to
support legacy driver behavior, which is 64 Multicast bins. The Unicast
filter code previously assumed all controllers support 32 or 16 Unicast
addresses based on controller version number, but this has been corrected
to support a default of 1 Unicast address. The filter configuration may
be specified through the devicetree using a Synopsys specific device tree
entry. This information was verified with Synopsys through
Synopsys Support Case #8000684337 and shared with the maintainer.

number of multicast hash bins and a different number of perfect filter
entries. The device does not provide a way to query these parameters,
therefore parameters are required. The Altera Cyclone V SOC has support for
256 multicast hash bins and 128 perfect filter entries, and is different
than what's currently provided in the stmmac driver.

This patch removes the check for the number of mulitcast addresses
when using hash based filtering since it's not necessary. If the number
of multicast addresses in the list exceeds the number of multicast hash
bins, the bins will "fold" over into one of the bins configured and
enabled for the particular component instance.
The default number of maximum unicast addresses was changed from 32 to 1
since this number is not dependent on the component revision. The maximum
number of multicast and unicast addresses is dependent on the configuration
of the Synopsys EMAC configured by the SOC architect at the time the
features were selected and configured for a particular component. Sadly,
Synopsys does not provide a way to query the precise number supported
by a particular component, so we must fall back on a devicetree entry.
This configuration could vary from vendor to vendor (such as STMicro,
Altera, etc).
The multicast bins are set for every possible filtering case (including
no entries) - previously the bits were set only if multicast filter entries
were present.

The synopsys EMAC can be configured for different numbers of multicast hash

to query this configuration information at runtime. As a result, a devicetree

correctly for a particular device instance. This patch modifies the
10/100/1000 MAC software interface such that these configuration parameters
can be set at initialization time.

This set of patches addresses a problem found with the Micrel ksz9021 phy and
libphy, where the ksz9021 phy does not support mmd extended register access
per the IEEE specification as assumed by libphy. The first patch adds a
framework for phy specific support to specify their own function to access
extended phy registers, return a failure code if not supported, or to default

This issue was found by using the Synopsys EMAC and a Micrel ksz9021 phy on the
Altera Cyclone 5 SOC development kit. This patch was tested on the same system
in both positive and negative test cases.

The Micrel ksz9021 PHY does not support standard IEEE standard MMD
extended register access, therefore requires stubs to fail the read
register method and do nothing for the write register method when
libphy attempts to read and/or configure Energy Efficient Ethernet
features in PHYS that do support those features. This problem
was observed on an Altera Cyclone V SOC development kit that
uses the Synopsys EMAC and the Micrel ksz9021 PHY. This patch
was tested on the same board, and Energy Efficient Ethernet is
now disabled as expected since the Micrel PHY does not support that
feature.

libphy was originally written assuming all phy devices support clause 45
access extensions to the mmd registers through the indirection registers
located within the first 16 phy registers. This assumption is not true
in all cases, and one specific example is the Micrel ksz9021 10/100/1000
Mbps phy. Using the stmmac driver, accessing the mmd registers to query
and configure energy efficient Ethernet (EEE) features yielded unexpected
behavior.
This patch adds mmd access functions to the phy driver that can be
overriden by the phy specific driver if the phy does not support this
mechanism or uses it's own non-standard access mechanism. By default,
the IEEE Compatible clause 45 access mechanism described in clause 22
is used. With this patch, EEE query/configure functions as expected
using the stmmac and the Micrel ksz9021 phy.

sk_unattached_filter_destroy() does not always need to release the
filter object via rcu. Since this filter is never attached to the
socket, the caller should be responsible for releasing the filter
in a safe way, which may not necessarily imply rcu.
This is a short summary of clients of this function:
1) xt_bpf.c and cls_bpf.c use the bpf matchers from rules, these rules
are removed from the packet path before the filter is released. Thus,
the framework makes sure the filter is safely removed.
2) In the ppp driver, the ppp_lock ensures serialization between the
xmit and filter attachment/detachment path. This doesn't use rcu
so deferred release via rcu makes no sense.
3) In the isdn/ppp driver, it is called from isdn_ppp_release()
the isdn_ppp_ioctl(). This driver uses mutex and spinlocks, no rcu.
Thus, deferred rcu makes no sense to me either, the deferred releases
may be just masking the effects of wrong locking strategy, which
should be fixed in the driver itself.
4) In the team driver, this is the only place where the rcu
synchronization with unattached filter is used. Therefore, this
patch introduces synchronize_rcu() which is called from the
genetlink path to make sure the filter doesn't go away while packets
are still walking over it. I think we can revisit this once struct
bpf_prog (that only wraps specific bpf code bits) is in place, then
add some specific struct rcu_head in the scope of the team driver if
Jiri thinks this is needed.
Deferred rcu release for unattached filters was originally introduced
in 302d663 ("filter: Allow to create sk-unattached filters").

This structure is not exposed to userspace, so fix this by defining
struct sk_filter; so we skip the casting in kernelspace. This is safe
since userspace has no way to lurk with that internal pointer.

Correct typo in the name of the type given to sizeof. Because it is the
size of a pointer that is wanted, the typo has no impact on compilation or

only one packet / per NAPI-schedule is processed.
