This patch fixes a v4.2+ regression introduced by commit c04a6091
that removed support for obsolete sync-and-steering markers usage
as originally defined in RFC-3720.
The regression would involve attempting to send OFMarker=No +
IFMarker=No keys during opertional negotiation login phase,
including when initiators did not actually propose these keys.
The result for MSFT iSCSI initiators would be random junk in
TCP stream after the last successful login request was been sent
signaling the move to full feature phase (FFP) operation.
To address this bug, go ahead and avoid negotiating these keys
by default unless the initiator explicitly proposes them, but
still respond to them with 'No' if they are proposed.

This patch fixes a v4.2+ regression introduced by commit 79dc9c9e86
where lookup of t10_pr_registration->pr_reg_deve and associated
->pr_kref get was missing from __core_scsi3_do_alloc_registration(),
which is responsible for setting DEF_PR_REG_ACTIVE.
This would result in REGISTER operations completing successfully,
but subsequent core_scsi3_pr_seq_non_holder() checking would fail
with !DEF_PR_REG_ACTIVE -> RESERVATION CONFLICT status.
Update __core_scsi3_add_registration() to drop ->pr_kref reference
after registration and any optional ALL_TG_PT=1 processing has
completed. Update core_scsi3_decode_spec_i_port() to release
the new parent local_pr_reg->pr_kref as well.
Also, update __core_scsi3_check_aptpl_registration() to perform
the same target_nacl_find_deve() lookup + ->pr_kref get, now that
__core_scsi3_add_registration() expects to drop the reference.
Finally, since there are cases when se_dev_entry->se_lun_acl can
still be dereferenced in core_scsi3_lunacl_undepend_item() while
holding ->pr_kref, go ahead and move explicit rcu_assign_pointer()
NULL assignments within core_disable_device_list_for_node() until

Phy, mdiobus, and netdev struct device fixes
The third version of this series fixes the build error which David
identified, and drops the broken changes for the Cavium Thunger BGX
ethernet driver as this driver requires some complex changes to
resolve the leakage - and this is best done by people who can test
the driver.
Compared to v2, the only patch which has changed is patch 6
"net: fix phy refcounting in a bunch of drivers"
I _think_ I've been able to build-test all the drivers touched by
that patch to some degree now, though several of them needed the
Kconfig hacked to allow it (not all had || COMPILE_TEST clause on
their dependencies.)
Previous cover letters below:
This is the second version of the series, with the comments David had
on the first patch fixed up. Original series description with updated
diffstat below.
While looking at the DSA code, I noticed we have a
of_find_net_device_by_node(), and it looks like users of that are
similarly buggy - it looks like net/dsa/dsa.c is the only user. Fix
that too.
Hi,
While looking at the phy code, I identified a number of weaknesses
where refcounting on device structures was being leaked, where
modules could be removed while in-use, and where the fixed-phy could
end up having unintended consequences caused by incorrect calls to
fixed_phy_update_state().
This patch series resolves those issues, some of which were discovered
with testing on an Armada 388 board. Not all patches are fully tested,
particularly the one which touches several network drivers.
When resolving the struct device refcounting problems, several different
solutions were considered before settling on the implementation here -
one of the considerations was to avoid touching many network drivers.
The solution here is:
phy_attach*() - takes a refcount
phy_detach*() - drops the phy_attach refcount
Provided drivers always attach and detach their phys, which they should
already be doing, this should change nothing, even if they leak a refcount.
of_phy_find_device() and of_* functions which use that take
a refcount. Arrange for this refcount to be dropped once
the phy is attached.
This is the reason why the previous change is important - we can't drop
this refcount taken by of_phy_find_device() until something else holds
a reference on the device. This resolves the leaked refcount caused by
using of_phy_connect() or of_phy_attach().
Even without the above changes, these drivers are leaking by calling
of_phy_find_device(). These drivers are addressed by adding the
appropriate release of that refcount.
The mdiobus code also suffered from the same kind of leak, but thankfully
this only happened in one place - the mdio-mux code.
I also found that the try_module_get() in the phy layer code was utterly
useless: phydev->dev.driver was guaranteed to always be NULL, so
try_module_get() was always being called with a NULL argument. I proved
this with my SFP code, which declares its own MDIO bus - the module use
count was never incremented irrespective of how I set the MDIO bus up.
This allowed the MDIO bus code to be removed from the kernel while there
were still PHYs attached to it.
One other bug was discovered: while using in-band-status with mvneta, it
was found that if a real phy is attached with in-band-status enabled,
and another ethernet interface is using the fixed-phy infrastructure, the
interface using the fixed-phy infrastructure is configured according to
the other interface using the in-band-status - which is caused by the
fixed-phy code not verifying that the phy_device passed in is actually
a fixed-phy device, rather than a real MDIO phy.
Lastly, having mdio_bus reversing phy_device_register() internals seems
like a layering violation - it's trivial to move that code to the phy
device layer.

of_find_net_device_by_node() uses class_find_device() internally to
lookup the corresponding network device. class_find_device() returns
a reference to the embedded struct device, with its refcount
incremented.

Add a phy_device_remove() function to complement phy_device_register(),
which undoes the effects of phy_device_register() by removing the phy
device from visibility, but not freeing it.
This allows these details to be moved out of the mdio bus code into
the phy code where this action belongs.

of_phy_find_device() increments the phy struct device refcount, which
we need to properly balance. Add code to network drivers using this
function to ensure that the struct device refcount is correctly
balanced.
For xgene, looking back in the history, we should be able to use
of_phy_connect() with a zero flags argument for the DT case as this is
how the driver used to operate prior to de7b5b3d79 ("net: eth: xgene:
change APM X-Gene SoC platform ethernet to support ACPI").
This leaves the Cavium Thunder BGX unfixed; fixing this driver is a
complicated task, one which the maintainers need to be involved with.

bus_find_device() is defined as:
* This is similar to the bus_for_each_dev() function above, but it
* returns a reference to a device that is 'found' for later use, as
* determined by the @match callback.
and it does indeed return a reference-counted pointer to the device:
while ((dev = next_device(&i)))
if (match(dev, data) && get_device(dev))
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
break;
klist_iter_exit(&i);
return dev;
What that means is that when we're done with the struct device, we must
drop that reference. Neither of_phy_connect() nor of_phy_attach() did
this when phy_connect_direct() or phy_attach_direct() failed.
With our previous patch, phy_connect_direct() and phy_attach_direct()
take a new refcount on the phy device when successful, so we can drop
our local reference immediatley after these functions, whether or not
they succeeded.

Take a refcount on the phy struct device when the phy device is attached
to a network device, and drop it after it's detached. This ensures that
a refcount is held on the phy device while the device is being used by
a network device, thereby preventing the phy_device from being
unexpectedly kfree()'d by phy_device_release().

Re-implement the mdiobus module refcounting to ensure that we actually
ensure that the mdiobus module code does not go away while we might call
into it.
The old scheme using bus->dev.driver was buggy, because bus->dev is a
class device which never has a struct device_driver associated with it,
and hence the associated code trying to obtain a refcount did nothing
useful.
Instead, take the approach that other subsystems do: pass the module
when calling mdiobus_register(), and record that in the mii_bus struct.
When we need to increment the module use count in the phy code, use
this stored pointer. When the phy is deteched, drop the module
refcount, remembering that the phy device might go away at that point.
This doesn't stop the mii_bus going away while there are in-use phys -
it merely stops the underlying code vanishing.

Current users of of_mdio_find_bus() leak a struct device refcount, as
they fail to clean up the reference obtained inside class_find_device().
Fix the DSA code to properly refcount the returned MDIO bus by:
1. taking a reference on the struct device whenever we assign it to
pd->chip[x].host_dev.
2. dropping the reference when we overwrite the existing reference.
3. dropping the reference when we free the data structure.
4. dropping the initial reference we obtained after setting up the
platform data structure, or on failure.
In step 2 above, where we obtain a new MDIO bus, there is no need to
take a reference on it as we would only have to drop it immediately
after assignment again, iow:
put_device(cd->host_dev); /* drop original assignment ref */
cd->host_dev = get_device(&mdio_bus_switch->dev); /* get our ref */
put_device(&mdio_bus_switch->dev); /* drop of_mdio_find_bus ref */

The idle-states bindings mandate that the entry-method string
in the idle-states node must be "psci" for ARM v8 64-bit systems,
but the examples in the bindings report a wrong entry-method string.
Owing to this typo, some dts in the kernel wrongly defined the
entry-method property, since they likely cut and pasted the example
definition without paying attention to the bindings definitions.
This patch fixes the typo in the DT idle states bindings examples and
respective dts in the kernel so that the bindings and related dts

dump_rules returns skb length and not error.
But when family == AF_UNSPEC, the caller of dump_rules
assumes that it returns an error. Hence, when family == AF_UNSPEC,
we continue trying to dump on -EMSGSIZE errors resulting in
incorrect dump idx carried between skbs belonging to the same dump.
This results in fib rule dump always only dumping rules that fit
into the first skb.
This patch fixes dump_rules to return error so that we exit correctly
and idx is correctly maintained between skbs that are part of the

added PCI_DEV_FLAGS_VPD_REF_F0. Previously, we set the flag on every
non-zero function of quirked devices. If a function turned out to be
different from function 0, i.e., it had a different class, vendor ID, or
device ID, the flag remained set but we didn't make VPD accessible at all.
Flip this around so we only set PCI_DEV_FLAGS_VPD_REF_F0 for functions that
are identical to function 0, and allow regular VPD access for any other
functions.

Commit 932c435cab ("PCI: Add dev_flags bit to access VPD through function

Generally this works because we're fairly well guaranteed that a PCIe
device is at slot address 0, but for the general case, including
conventional PCI, it's incorrect. We need to get the slot and then convert
it back into a devfn.

After a good amount of debugging, I found bnx2x was byte swaping
the 40 bytes of rss_key.
If we byte swap the key, then bnx2x generates hashes matching
MSDN specs as documented in (Verifying the RSS Hash Calculation)
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/hardware/ff571021%
28v=vs.85%29.aspx
It is mostly a non issue, unless we want to mix different NIC
in a host, and want consistent hashing among all of them, ie
if they all use the boot time generated rss key, or if some application
is choosing specific tuple(s) so that incoming traffic lands into known
