====================
Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2021-05-07
This series contains updates to i40e driver only.
Magnus fixes XDP by adding and correcting checks that were caused by a
previous commit which introduced a new variable but did not account for
it in all paths.
Yunjian Wang adds a return in an error path to prevent reading a freed
pointer.
Jaroslaw forces link reset when changing FEC so that changes take
affect.
Mateusz fixes PHY types for 2.5G and 5G as there is a differentiation on
PHY identifiers based on operation.
Arkadiusz removes filtering of LLDP frames for software DCB as this is
preventing them from being properly transmitted.

The RX FIFO overflows when the system is not able to process all received
packets and they start accumulating (first in the DMA queue in memory,
then in the FIFO). An interrupt is then raised for each overflowing packet
and handled in stmmac_interrupt(). This is counter-productive, since it
brings the system (or more likely, one CPU core) to its knees to process
the FIFO overflow interrupts.
stmmac_interrupt() handles overflow interrupts by writing the rx tail ptr
into the corresponding hardware register (according to the MAC spec, this
has the effect of restarting the MAC DMA). However, without freeing any rx
descriptors, the DMA stops right away, and another overflow interrupt is
raised as the FIFO overflows again. Since the DMA is already restarted at
the end of stmmac_rx_refill() after freeing descriptors, disabling FIFO
overflow interrupts and the corresponding handling code has no side effect,
and eliminates the interrupt storm when the RX FIFO overflows.

If userspace exits before calling accept() on a listener that had at least
one new connection ready, we get:
Attempt to release TCP socket in state 8
This happens because the mptcp socket gets cloned when the TCP connection
is ready, but the socket is never exposed to userspace.
The client additionally sends a DATA_FIN, which brings connection into
CLOSE_WAIT state. This in turn prevents the orphan+state reset fixup
in mptcp_sock_destruct() from doing its job.
Fixes: 3721b9b64676b ("mptcp: Track received DATA_FIN sequence number and add related helpers")

Commit 12738ac4754e ("i40e: Fix sparse errors in i40e_txrx.c") broke
XDP support in the i40e driver. That commit was fixing a sparse error
in the code by introducing a new variable xdp_res instead of
overloading this into the skb pointer. The problem is that the code
later uses the skb pointer in if statements and these where not
extended to also test for the new xdp_res variable. Fix this by adding
the correct tests for xdp_res in these places.
The skb pointer was used to store the result of the XDP program by
overloading the results in the error pointer
ERR_PTR(-result). Therefore, the allocation failure test that used to
only test for !skb now need to be extended to also consider !xdp_res.
i40e_cleanup_headers() had a check that based on the skb value being
an error pointer, i.e. a result from the XDP program != XDP_PASS, and
if so start to process a new packet immediately, instead of populating
skb fields and sending the skb to the stack. This check is not needed
anymore, since we have added an explicit test for xdp_res being set
and if so just do continue to pick the next packet from the NIC.

The section "19) Editor modelines and other cruft" in
Documentation/process/coding-style.rst clearly says, "Do not include any
of these in source files."
I recently receive a patch to explicitly add a new one.
Let's do treewide cleanups, otherwise some people follow the existing code
and attempt to upstream their favoriate editor setups.
It is even nicer if scripts/checkpatch.pl can check it.
If we like to impose coding style in an editor-independent manner, I think
editorconfig (patch [1]) is a saner solution.

In case of a use after free kernel oops, the freeing path of the object
is required to debug futher. In most of cases the object address is
present in one of the registers.
Thus check the register's address and if it belongs to slab, print its
alloc and free path.
e.g. in the below issue register r6 belongs to slab, and a use after
free issue occurred on one of its dereferenced values:

Patch series "drivers/char: remove /dev/kmem for good".
Exploring /dev/kmem and /dev/mem in the context of memory hot(un)plug and
memory ballooning, I started questioning the existence of /dev/kmem.
Comparing it with the /proc/kcore implementation, it does not seem to be
able to deal with things like
a) Pages unmapped from the direct mapping (e.g., to be used by secretmem)
-> kern_addr_valid(). virt_addr_valid() is not sufficient.
b) Special cases like gart aperture memory that is not to be touched
-> mem_pfn_is_ram()
Unless I am missing something, it's at least broken in some cases and might
fault/crash the machine.
Looks like its existence has been questioned before in 2005 and 2010 [1],
after ~11 additional years, it might make sense to revive the discussion.
CONFIG_DEVKMEM is only enabled in a single defconfig (on purpose or by
mistake?). All distributions disable it: in Ubuntu it has been disabled
for more than 10 years, in Debian since 2.6.31, in Fedora at least
starting with FC3, in RHEL starting with RHEL4, in SUSE starting from
15sp2, and OpenSUSE has it disabled as well.
1) /dev/kmem was popular for rootkits [2] before it got disabled
basically everywhere. Ubuntu documents [3] "There is no modern user of
/dev/kmem any more beyond attackers using it to load kernel rootkits.".
RHEL documents in a BZ [5] "it served no practical purpose other than to
serve as a potential security problem or to enable binary module drivers
to access structures/functions they shouldn't be touching"
2) /proc/kcore is a decent interface to have a controlled way to read
kernel memory for debugging puposes. (will need some extensions to
deal with memory offlining/unplug, memory ballooning, and poisoned
pages, though)
3) It might be useful for corner case debugging [1]. KDB/KGDB might be a
better fit, especially, to write random memory; harder to shoot
yourself into the foot.
4) "Kernel Memory Editor" [4] hasn't seen any updates since 2000 and seems
to be incompatible with 64bit [1]. For educational purposes,
/proc/kcore might be used to monitor value updates -- or older
kernels can be used.
5) It's broken on arm64, and therefore, completely disabled there.
Looks like it's essentially unused and has been replaced by better
suited interfaces for individual tasks (/proc/kcore, KDB/KGDB). Let's
just remove it.

Allow the developer to specifiy the initial value of the modprobe_path[]
string. This can be used to set it to the empty string initially, thus
effectively disabling request_module() during early boot until userspace
writes a new value via the /proc/sys/kernel/modprobe interface. [1]
When building a custom kernel (often for an embedded target), it's normal
to build everything into the kernel that is needed for booting, and indeed
the initramfs often contains no modules at all, so every such
request_module() done before userspace init has mounted the real rootfs is
a waste of time.
This is particularly useful when combined with the previous patch, which
made the initramfs unpacking asynchronous - for that to work, it had to
make any usermodehelper call wait for the unpacking to finish before
attempting to invoke the userspace helper. By eliminating all such
(known-to-be-futile) calls of usermodehelper, the initramfs unpacking and
the {device,late}_initcalls can proceed in parallel for much longer.
For a relatively slow ppc board I'm working on, the two patches combined
lead to 0.2s faster boot - but more importantly, the fact that the
initramfs unpacking proceeds completely in the background while devices
get probed means I get to handle the gpio watchdog in time without getting
reset.
[1] __request_module() already has an early -ENOENT return when
modprobe_path is the empty string.

Patch series "background initramfs unpacking, and CONFIG_MODPROBE_PATH", v3.
These two patches are independent, but better-together.
The second is a rather trivial patch that simply allows the developer to
change "/sbin/modprobe" to something else - e.g. the empty string, so
that all request_module() during early boot return -ENOENT early, without
even spawning a usermode helper, needlessly synchronizing with the
initramfs unpacking.
The first patch delegates decompressing the initramfs to a worker thread,
allowing do_initcalls() in main.c to proceed to the device_ and late_
initcalls without waiting for that decompression (and populating of
rootfs) to finish. Obviously, some of those later calls may rely on the
initramfs being available, so I've added synchronization points in the
firmware loader and usermodehelper paths - there might be other places
that would need this, but so far no one has been able to think of any
places I have missed.
There's not much to win if most of the functionality needed during boot is
only available as modules. But systems with a custom-made .config and
initramfs can boot faster, partly due to utilizing more than one cpu
earlier, partly by avoiding known-futile modprobe calls (which would still
trigger synchronization with the initramfs unpacking, thus eliminating
most of the first benefit).
This patch (of 2):
Most of the boot process doesn't actually need anything from the
initramfs, until of course PID1 is to be executed. So instead of doing
the decompressing and populating of the initramfs synchronously in
populate_rootfs() itself, push that off to a worker thread.
This is primarily motivated by an embedded ppc target, where unpacking
even the rather modest sized initramfs takes 0.6 seconds, which is long
enough that the external watchdog becomes unhappy that it doesn't get
attention soon enough. By doing the initramfs decompression in a worker
thread, we get to do the device_initcalls and hence start petting the
watchdog much sooner.
Normal desktops might benefit as well. On my mostly stock Ubuntu kernel,
my initramfs is a 26M xz-compressed blob, decompressing to around 126M.
That takes almost two seconds:
[ 0.201454] Trying to unpack rootfs image as initramfs...
[ 1.976633] Freeing initrd memory: 29416K
Before this patch, these lines occur consecutively in dmesg. With this
patch, the timestamps on these two lines is roughly the same as above, but
with 172 lines inbetween - so more than one cpu has been kept busy doing
work that would otherwise only happen after the populate_rootfs()
finished.
Should one of the initcalls done after rootfs_initcall time (i.e., device_
and late_ initcalls) need something from the initramfs (say, a kernel
module or a firmware blob), it will simply wait for the initramfs
unpacking to be done before proceeding, which should in theory make this
completely safe.
But if some driver pokes around in the filesystem directly and not via one
of the official kernel interfaces (i.e. request_firmware*(),
call_usermodehelper*) that theory may not hold - also, I certainly might
have missed a spot when sprinkling wait_for_initramfs(). So there is an

It's currently nigh impossible to get these pr_debug()s to print
something. Being guarded by initcall_debug means one has to enable tons
of other debug output during boot, and the system_state condition further
means it's impossible to get them when loading modules later.
Also, the compiler can't know that these global conditions do not change,
so there are W=2 warnings
kernel/async.c:125:9: warning: `calltime' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized]
kernel/async.c:300:9: warning: `starttime' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized]
Make it possible, for a DYNAMIC_DEBUG kernel, to get these to print their
messages by booting with appropriate 'dyndbg="file async.c +p"' command
line argument. For a non-DYNAMIC_DEBUG kernel, pr_debug() compiles to
nothing.
This does cost doing an unconditional ktime_get() for the starttime value,
but the corresponding ktime_get for the end time can be elided by
factoring it into a function which only gets called if the printk()
arguments end up being evaluated.

request_free_mem_region() is used to find an empty range of physical
addresses for hotplugging ZONE_DEVICE memory. It does this by iterating
over the range of possible addresses using region_intersects() to see if
the range is free before calling request_mem_region() to allocate the
region.
However the resource_lock is dropped between these two calls meaning by
the time request_mem_region() is called in request_free_mem_region()
another thread may have already reserved the requested region. This
results in unexpected failures and a message in the kernel log from
hitting this condition:
/*
* mm/hmm.c reserves physical addresses which then
* become unavailable to other users. Conflicts are
* not expected. Warn to aid debugging if encountered.
*/
if (conflict->desc == IORES_DESC_DEVICE_PRIVATE_MEMORY) {
pr_warn("Unaddressable device %s %pR conflicts with %pR",
conflict->name, conflict, res);
These unexpected failures can be corrected by holding resource_lock across
the two calls. This also requires memory allocation to be performed prior
to taking the lock.

Refactor the portion of __request_region() done whilst holding the
resource_lock into a separate function to allow callers to hold the lock.

Introduce a version of region_intersects() that can be called with the
resource_lock already held.
This will be used in a future fix to __request_free_mem_region().
[akpm@linux-foundation.org: make __region_intersects static]

All functions that search for IORESOURCE_SYSTEM_RAM or IORESOURCE_MEM
resources now properly consider the whole resource tree, not just the
first level. Let's drop the unused first_lvl / siblings_only logic.
Remove documentation that indicates that some functions behave differently,
all consider the full resource tree now.
