<title>networking: make skb_put &amp; friends return void pointers</title>

<id>urn:sha1:4df864c1d9afb46e2461a9f808d9f11a42d31bad</id>
<content type='text'>
It seems like a historic accident that these return unsigned char *,
and in many places that means casts are required, more often than not.

Make these functions (skb_put, __skb_put and pskb_put) return void *
and remove all the casts across the tree, adding a (u8 *) cast only
where the unsigned char pointer was used directly, all done with the
following spatch:

    @@
    expression SKB, LEN;
    typedef u8;
    identifier fn = { skb_put, __skb_put };
    @@
    - *(fn(SKB, LEN))
    + *(u8 *)fn(SKB, LEN)

    @@
    expression E, SKB, LEN;
    identifier fn = { skb_put, __skb_put };
    type T;
    @@
    - E = ((T *)(fn(SKB, LEN)))
    + E = fn(SKB, LEN)

which actually doesn't cover pskb_put since there are only three
users overall.

A handful of stragglers were converted manually, notably a macro in
drivers/isdn/i4l/isdn_bsdcomp.c and, oddly enough, one of the many
instances in net/bluetooth/hci_sock.c. In the former file, I also
had to fix one whitespace problem spatch introduced.

<title>can: dev: make can_change_state() robust to be called with cf == NULL</title>

<id>urn:sha1:ff3416fb5b02cfae94591ef4395b0b4dc793f25e</id>
<content type='text'>
In OOM situations where no skb can be allocated, can_change_state() may
be called with cf == NULL. As this function updates the state and error
statistics it's not an option to skip the call to can_change_state() in
OOM situations.

This patch makes can_change_state() robust, so that it can be called
with cf == NULL.

<title>can: dev: add CAN interface API for fixed bitrates</title>

<id>urn:sha1:431af779256cd6cb8328ac23c5696bae63c33a51</id>
<content type='text'>
Some CAN interfaces only support fixed fixed bitrates. This patch adds a
netlink interface to get the list of the CAN interface's fixed bitrates and
data bitrates.

Inside the driver arrays of supported data- bitrate values are defined.

const u32 drvname_bitrate[] = { 20000, 50000, 100000 };
const u32 drvname_data_bitrate[] = { 200000, 500000, 1000000 };

struct drvname_priv *priv;
priv = netdev_priv(dev);

priv-&gt;bitrate_const = drvname_bitrate;
priv-&gt;bitrate_const_cnt = ARRAY_SIZE(drvname_bitrate);
priv-&gt;data_bitrate_const = drvname_data_bitrate;
priv-&gt;data_bitrate_const_cnt = ARRAY_SIZE(drvname_data_bitrate);

<content type='text'>
Until commit

    08da7da41ea4 can: provide a separate bittiming_const parameter to
                 bittiming functions

it was possible to have devices not providing bittiming_const. This can
be used for hardware that only support pre-defined fixed bitrates.
Although no mainline driver is using this feature so far.

This patch re-introduces this feature for the bitrate and the data
bitrate (of CANFD controllers). The driver can specify the
{data_,}bittiming_const (if the bittiming parameters should be
calculated from the bittiming_const) as before or no
{data_,}bittiming_const but implement the do_set_{data,}bittiming
callback.

<id>urn:sha1:12a6075cabc0d9ffbc0366b44daa22f278606312</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch adds a netlink interface to configure the CAN bus termination of
CAN interfaces.

Inside the driver an array of supported termination values is defined:

const u16 drvname_termination[] = { 60, 120, CAN_TERMINATION_DISABLED };

struct drvname_priv *priv;
priv = netdev_priv(dev);

priv-&gt;termination_const = drvname_termination;
priv-&gt;termination_const_cnt = ARRAY_SIZE(drvname_termination);
priv-&gt;termination = CAN_TERMINATION_DISABLED;

And the funtion to set the value has to be defined:

priv-&gt;do_set_termination = drvname_set_termination;

<title>can: dev: fix deadlock reported after bus-off</title>

<id>urn:sha1:9abefcb1aaa58b9d5aa40a8bb12c87d02415e4c8</id>
<content type='text'>
A timer was used to restart after the bus-off state, leading to a
relatively large can_restart() executed in an interrupt context,
which in turn sets up pinctrl. When this happens during system boot,
there is a high probability of grabbing the pinctrl_list_mutex,
which is locked already by the probe() of other device, making the
kernel suspect a deadlock condition [1].

To resolve this issue, the restart_timer is replaced by a delayed
work.

Several cases of overlapping changes, except the packet scheduler
conflicts which deal with the addition of the free list parameter
to qdisc_enqueue().
