Revert "vti4: Don't override MTU passed on link creation via IFLA_MTU"

2018-05-30T20:08:04+00:00

This reverts commit 08a049c84408dfd0240a3340681486779c167cc8 which is 03080e5ec727 ("vti4: Don't override MTU passed on link creation via IFLA_MTU") upstream as it causes test failures. This commit should not have been backported to anything older than 4.16, despite what the changelog said as the mtu must be set in older kernels, unlike is needed in 4.16 and newer. Thanks to Alistair Strachan for the debugging help figuring this out, and for 'git bisect' for making my life a whole lot easier.

[ Upstream commit 1e0ce03bf142454f38a5fc050bf4fd698d2d36d8 ] The "mdr" command should repeat (continue) when only Enter/Return is pressed, so make it do so.

scsi: lpfc: Fix frequency of Release WQE CQEs

2018-05-30T05:47:45+00:00

[ Upstream commit 04673e38f56b30cd39b1fa0f386137d818b17781 ] The driver controls when the hardware sends completions that communicate consumption of elements from the WQ. This is done by setting a WQEC bit on a WQE. The current driver sets it on every Nth WQE posting. However, the driver isn't clearing the bit if the WQE is reused. Thus, if the queue depth isn't evenly divisible by N, with enough time, it can be set on every element, creating a lot of overhead and risking CQ full conditions. Correct by clearing the bit when not setting it on an Nth element. Signed-off-by: Dick Kennedy Signed-off-by: James Smart Reviewed-by: Hannes Reinecke Signed-off-by: Martin K.

scsi: lpfc: Fix soft lockup in lpfc worker thread during LIP testing

2018-05-30T05:47:45+00:00

[ Upstream commit 161df4f09987ae2e9f0f97f0b38eee298b4a39ff ] During link bounce testing in a point-to-point topology, the host may enter a soft lockup on the lpfc_worker thread: Call Trace: lpfc_work_done+0x1f3/0x1390 [lpfc] lpfc_do_work+0x16f/0x180 [lpfc] kthread+0xc7/0xe0 ret_from_fork+0x3f/0x70 The driver was simultaneously setting a combination of flags that caused lpfc_do_work()to effectively spin between slow path work and new event data, causing the lockup. Ensure in the typical wq completions, that new event data flags are set if the slow path flag is running. The slow path will eventually reschedule the wq handling.

audit: return on memory error to avoid null pointer dereference

[ Upstream commit 23138ead270045f1b3e912e667967b6094244999 ] If there is a memory allocation error when trying to change an audit kernel feature value, the ignored allocation error will trigger a NULL pointer dereference oops on subsequent use of that pointer. Return instead. Passes audit-testsuite.
