The code currently uses the lightweight dma_wmb barrier before updating
the current descriptor count. Under heavy load, the Tx cleanup routine
was seeing the updated current descriptor count before the updated
descriptor information. As a result, the Tx descriptor was being cleaned
up before it was used because it was not "owned" by the hardware yet,
resulting in a Tx queue hang.
Using the wmb barrier insures that the descriptor is updated before the
descriptor counter preventing the Tx queue hang. For extra insurance,
the Tx cleanup routine is changed to grab the current decriptor count on
entry and uses that initial value in the processing loop rather than
trying to chase the current value.

overflow-arith: begin to add support for overflow builtins functions
I add a new header, linux/overflow-arith.h, as the central place to add
overflow and wrap-around checking functions. The reason I am doing so
is that it can make use of compiler supported builtin functions which
can leverage hardware.
As I need this for a fix in the ipv6 stack, which is also included in
this series, I propose to add it sooner than later over Davem's net
tree. This is also the reason why I start slowly with only the one
function I need at this time.

Raw sockets with hdrincl enabled can insert ipv6 extension headers
right into the data stream. In case we need to fragment those packets,
we reparse the options header to find the place where we can insert
the fragment header. If the extension headers exceed the link's MTU we
actually cannot make progress in such a case.
Instead of ending up in broken arithmetic or rounding towards 0 and
entering an endless loop in ip6_fragment, just prevent those cases by
aborting early and signal -EMSGSIZE to user space.

The idea of the overflow-arith.h header is to collect overflow checking
functions in one central place.
If gcc compiler supports the __builtin_overflow_* builtins we use them
because they might give better performance, otherwise the code falls
back to normal overflow checking functions.
The builtin_overflow functions are supported by gcc-5 and clang. The
matter of supporting clang is to just provide a corresponding
CC_HAVE_BUILTIN_OVERFLOW, because the specific overflow checking builtins
don't differ between gcc and clang.
I just provide overflow_usub function here as I intend this to get merged
into net, more functions will definitely follow as they are needed.

If alpha is strictly reduced by alpha >> dctcp_shift_g and if alpha is less
than 1 << dctcp_shift_g, then alpha may never reach zero. For example,
given shift_g=4 and alpha=15, alpha >> dctcp_shift_g yields 0 and alpha
remains 15. The effect isn't noticeable in this case below cwnd=137, but
could gradually drive uncongested flows with leftover alpha down to
cwnd=137. A larger dctcp_shift_g would have a greater effect.
This change causes alpha=15 to drop to 0 instead of being decrementing by 1
as it would when alpha=16. However, it requires one less conditional to
implement since it doesn't have to guard against subtracting 1 from 0U. A
decay of 15 is not unreasonable since an equal or greater amount occurs at
alpha >= 240.

Furthermore, an unused callback was removed to simplify the

Currently, NETLINK_LIST_MEMBERSHIPS grabs the netlink table while copying
the membership state to user-space. However, grabing the netlink table is
effectively a write_lock_irq(), and as such we should not be triggering
page-faults in the critical section.
This can be easily reproduced by the following snippet:
int s = socket(AF_NETLINK, SOCK_RAW, NETLINK_ROUTE);
void *p = mmap(0, 4096, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANON, -1, 0);
int r = getsockopt(s, 0x10e, 9, p, (void*)((char*)p + 4092));
This should work just fine, but currently triggers EFAULT and a possible
WARN_ON below handle_mm_fault().
Fix this by reducing locking of NETLINK_LIST_MEMBERSHIPS to a read-side
lock. The write-lock was overkill in the first place, and the read-lock
allows page-faults just fine.

In commit d999297c3d ("tipc: reduce locking scope during packet reception")
we altered the packet retransmission function. Since then, when
restransmitting packets, we create a clone of the original buffer
using __pskb_copy(skb, MIN_H_SIZE), where MIN_H_SIZE is the size of
the area we want to have copied, but also the smallest possible TIPC
packet size. The value of MIN_H_SIZE is 24.
Unfortunately, __pskb_copy() also has the effect that the headroom
of the cloned buffer takes the size MIN_H_SIZE. This is too small
for carrying the packet over the UDP tunnel bearer, which requires
a minimum headroom of 28 bytes. A change to just use pskb_copy()
lets the clone inherit the original headroom of 80 bytes, but also
assumes that the copied data area is of at least that size, something
that is not always the case. So that is not a viable solution.
We now fix this by adding a check for sufficient headroom in the
transmit function of udp_media.c, and expanding it when necessary.

The default fix broadcast window size is currently set to 20 packets.
This is a very low value, set at a time when we were still testing on
10 Mb/s hubs, and a change to it is long overdue.
Commit 7845989cb4 ("net: tipc: fix stall during bclink wakeup procedure")
revealed a problem with this low value. For messages of importance LOW,
the backlog queue limit will be calculated to 30 packets, while a
single, maximum sized message of 66000 bytes, carried across a 1500 MTU
network consists of 46 packets.
This leads to the following scenario (among others leading to the same
situation):
1: Msg 1 of 46 packets is sent. 20 packets go to the transmit queue, 26
packets to the backlog queue.
2: Msg 2 of 46 packets is attempted sent, but rejected because there is
no more space in the backlog queue at this level. The sender is added
to the wakeup queue with a "pending packets chain size" number of 46.
3: Some packets in the transmit queue are acked and released. We try to
wake up the sender, but the pending size of 46 is bigger than the LOW
wakeup limit of 30, so this doesn't happen.
5: Subsequent acks releases all the remaining buffers. Each time we test
for the wakeup criteria and find that 46 still is larger than 30,
even after both the transmit and the backlog queues are empty.
6: The sender is never woken up and given a chance to send its message.
He is stuck.
We could now loosen the wakeup criteria (used by link_prepare_wakeup())
to become equal to the send criteria (used by tipc_link_xmit()), i.e.,
by ignoring the "pending packets chain size" value altogether, or we can
just increase the queue limits so that the criteria can be satisfied
anyway. There are good reasons (potentially multiple waiting senders) to
not opt for the former solution, so we choose the latter one.
This commit fixes the problem by giving the broadcast link window a
default value of 50 packets. We also introduce a new minimum link
window size BCLINK_MIN_WIN of 32, which is enough to always avoid the
described situation. Finally, in order to not break any existing users
which may set the window explicitly, we enforce that the window is set
to the new minimum value in case the user is trying to set it to
anything lower.

To prevent a race between the TX DMA engine and the CPU the writing of the
first transmit descriptor must be deferred until all following descriptors
have been updated. The network card may otherwise start transmitting before
all packet descriptors are set up correctly, which leads to data corruption
or an aborted transmit operation.
This deferral is already done in the non-TSO TX path, implement it also in

The TX DMA engine requires that buffers with a size of 8 bytes or smaller
must be 64 bit aligned. This requirement may be violated when doing TSO,
as in this case larger skb frags can be broken up and transmitted in small
parts with then inappropriate alignment.
Fix this by checking for proper alignment before handing a buffer to the
DMA engine. If the data is misaligned realign it by copying it into the
TSO header data area.

- add comments from Florian Fainelli
- I did not change disable property name into enable
because I fear to break existing behaviour
- add smsc vendor prefix
- remove CONFIG_OF and use __maybe_unused
- introduce "phy-handle" ability into ti,cpsw
driver, so I can remove bogus:
if (!of_node && dev->parent->of_node)
of_node = dev->parent->of_node;
construct. Therefore new patch for the ti,cpsw
driver is necessary.

On some boards the energy enable detect mode leads in
trouble with some switches, so make the enabling of
this mode configurable through DT.

add the ability to parse "phy-handle". This
is needed for phys, which have a DT node, and
need to parse DT properties.

If a gigabit ethernet PHY is connected to a fast ethernet MAC,
then it can detect 1000 support from the partner but not use it.
This results in a forced speed of 1000 and RX/TX failure.
Check for 1000BASE-T support and then check the advertisement
configuration before setting the MAC speed to 1000mbit.

Commit 044a832a77 ("xfrm: Fix local error reporting crash
with interfamily tunnels") moved the setting of skb->protocol
behind the last access of the inner mode family to fix an
interfamily crash. Unfortunately now skb->protocol might not
be set at all, so we fail dispatch to the inner address family.
As a reault, the local error handler is not called and the
mtu value is not reported back to userspace.
We fix this by setting skb->protocol on message size errors
before we call xfrm_local_error.

Link interrupts are enabled in init_umac(), which is too early for us to
process them since we do not yet have a valid PHY device pointer. On
BCM7425 chips for instance, we will crash calling phy_mac_interrupt()
because phydev is NULL.
Fix this by moving the link interrupts enabling in
bcmgenet_netif_start(), under a specific function:
bcmgenet_link_intr_enable() and while at it, update the comments
surrounding the code.

Before lightweight tunnels existed, it really didn't make sense to
create a tunnel that was not fully specified, such as without a
destination IP address - the resulting packets would go nowhere.
However, with lightweight tunnels, the opposite is true - it doesn't
make sense to require this information when it will be provided later
on by the route. This loosens the requirements for this information.
An alternative would be to allow the relaxed version only when
COLLECT_METADATA is enabled. However, since there are several
variations on this theme (such as NBMA tunnels in GRE), just dropping
the restrictions seems the most consistent across tunnels and with
the existing configuration.
