It isn't actually described clearly at all in UM10944.pdf, but on TX of
a management frame (such as PTP), this needs to happen:
- The destination MAC address (i.e. 01-80-c2-00-00-0e), along with the
desired destination port, need to be installed in one of the 4
management slots of the switch, over SPI.
- The host can poll over SPI for that management slot's ENFPORT field.
That gets unset when the switch has matched the slot to the frame.
And therein lies the problem. ENFPORT does not mean that the packet has
been transmitted. Just that it has been received over the CPU port, and
that the mgmt slot is yet again available.
This is relevant because of what we are doing in sja1105_ptp_txtstamp_skb,
which is called right after sja1105_mgmt_xmit. We are in a hard
real-time deadline, since the hardware only gives us 24 bits of TX
timestamp, so we need to read the full PTP clock to reconstruct it.
Because we're in a hurry (in an attempt to make sure that we have a full
64-bit PTP time which is as close as possible to the actual transmission
time of the frame, to avoid 24-bit wraparounds), first we read the PTP
clock, then we poll for the TX timestamp to become available.
But of course, we don't know for sure that the frame has been
transmitted when we read the full PTP clock. We had assumed that ENFPORT
means it has, but the assumption is incorrect. And while in most
real-life scenarios this has never been caught due to software delays,
nowhere is this fact more obvious than with a tc-taprio offload, where
PTP traffic gets a small timeslot very rarely (example: 1 packet per 10
ms). In that case, we will be reading the PTP clock for timestamp
reconstruction too early (before the packet has been transmitted), and
this renders the reconstruction procedure incorrect (see the assumptions
described in the comments found on function sja1105_tstamp_reconstruct).
So the PTP TX timestamps will be off by 1<<24 clock ticks, or 135 ms
(1 tick is 8 ns).
So fix this case of premature optimization by simply reordering the
sja1105_ptpegr_ts_poll and the sja1105_ptpclkval_read function calls. It
turns out that in practice, the 135 ms hard deadline for PTP timestamp
wraparound is not so hard, since even the most bandwidth-intensive PTP
profiles, such as 802.1AS-2011, have a sync frame interval of 125 ms.
So if we couldn't deliver a timestamp in 135 ms (which we can), we're
toast and have much bigger problems anyway.

During development we tried to make the interrupt handling as fine-grained
as possible with TX and RX interrupts being disabled/enabled independently
and the counter registers reset from workqueue context.
Unfortunately after thorough testing of current mainline, we noticed the
driver has become unstable under heavy load. While this is hard to
reproduce, it's quite consistent in the driver's current form.
This patch proposes to go back to the previous approach of doing all
processing in napi context with all interrupts masked in order to make the
driver usable in mainline linux. This doesn't impact the performance on
pumpkin boards at all and it's in line with what many ethernet drivers do
in mainline linux anyway.
At the same time we're adding a FIXME comment about the need to improve
the interrupt handling.

There is a race condition exist during termination. The path is
alx_stop and then alx_remove. An alx_schedule_link_check could be called
before alx_stop by interrupt handler and invoke alx_link_check later.
Alx_stop frees the napis, and alx_remove cancels any pending works.
If any of the work is scheduled before termination and invoked before
alx_remove, a null-ptr-deref occurs because both expect alx->napis[i].
This patch fix the race condition by moving cancel_work_sync functions
before alx_free_napis inside alx_stop. Because interrupt handler can call
alx_schedule_link_check again, alx_free_irq is moved before
cancel_work_sync calls too.

Fix the following issues:
(1) Fix writeback to reduce the size of a store operation to i_size,
effectively discarding the extra data.
The problem comes when afs_page_mkwrite() records that a page is about
to be modified by mmap(). It doesn't know what bits of the page are
going to be modified, so it records the whole page as being dirty
(this is stored in page->private as start and end offsets).
Without this, the marshalling for the store to the server extends the
size of the file to the end of the page (in afs_fs_store_data() and
yfs_fs_store_data()).
(2) Fix setattr to actually truncate the pagecache, thereby clearing
the discarded part of a file.
(3) Fix setattr to check that the new size is okay and to disable
ATTR_SIZE if i_size wouldn't change.
(4) Force i_size to be updated as the result of a truncate.
(5) Don't truncate if ATTR_SIZE is not set.
(6) Call pagecache_isize_extended() if the file was enlarged.
Note that truncate_set_size() isn't used because the setting of i_size is
done inside afs_vnode_commit_status() under the vnode->cb_lock.

(2) Not ignoring ATTR_MTIME_SET, ATTR_TIMES_SET and ATTR_TOUCH settings.
(3) Setting the ctime from the server mtime when on the target file when
creating a hard link to it.

When doing a partial writeback, afs_write_back_from_locked_page() may
generate an FS.StoreData RPC request that writes out part of a file when a
file has been constructed from pieces by doing seek, write, seek, write,
... as is done by ld.
The FS.StoreData RPC is given the current i_size as the file length, but
the server basically ignores it unless the data length is 0 (in which case
it's just a truncate operation). The revised file length returned in the
result of the RPC may then not reflect what we suggested - and this leads
to i_size getting moved backwards - which causes issues later.
Fix the client to take account of this by ignoring the returned file size
unless the data version number jumped unexpectedly - in which case we're
going to have to clear the pagecache and reload anyway.
This can be observed when doing a kernel build on an AFS mount. The
following pair of commands produce the issue:
ld -m elf_x86_64 -z max-page-size=0x200000 --emit-relocs \

This results in the latter giving:
Cannot read ELF section headers 0/18: Success
as the realmode.elf file got corrupted.
The sequence of events can also be driven with:

-c "pwrite -S 0x59 10000 1000" \

Fix afs_write_end() to change i_size under vnode->cb_lock rather than
->wb_lock so that it doesn't race with afs_vnode_commit_status() and
afs_getattr().
The ->wb_lock is only meant to guard access to ->wb_keys which isn't
accessed by that piece of code.

The mtime on an inode needs to be updated when a write is made into an
mmap'ed section. There are three ways in which this could be done: update
it when page_mkwrite is called, update it when a page is changed from dirty
to writeback or leave it to the server and fix the mtime up from the reply
to the StoreData RPC.
Found with the generic/215 xfstest.
