<content type='text'>
Most errors that can occur in sja1105_static_config_reload() are fatal
(example: fail to communicate with hardware), but not all are.

For example, sja1105_static_config_upload() -&gt; kcalloc() may fail, and
if that happens, we have called phylink_replay_link_begin() but never
phylink_replay_link_end().

Under that circumstance, all port phylink instances are left in a state
where the resolver is stopped with the PHYLINK_DISABLE_REPLAY bit set.
We have effectively disabled link management with no way to recover from
this condition.

Avoid that situation by ensuring phylink_replay_link_begin() is always
paired with phylink_replay_link_end(), regardless of whether we faced
any errors during switch reset, configuration reload and general state
reload.

<content type='text'>
Move phylink_replay_link_end() as the last locked operation under
sja1105_static_config_reload(). The purpose is to be able to goto
this step from the error path of intermediate steps (we must call
phylink_replay_link_end()).

sja1105_reload_cbs() notably does not depend on port states or link
speeds. See commit 954ad9bf13c4 ("net: dsa: sja1105: fix bandwidth
discrepancy between tc-cbs software and offload") which has discussed
this issue specifically.

This converts some of the visually simpler cases that have been split
over multiple lines.  I only did the ones that are easy to verify the
resulting diff by having just that final GFP_KERNEL argument on the next
line.

Somebody should probably do a proper coccinelle script for this, but for
me the trivial script actually resulted in an assertion failure in the
middle of the script.  I probably had made it a bit _too_ trivial.

So after fighting that far a while I decided to just do some of the
syntactically simpler cases with variations of the previous 'sed'
scripts.

The more syntactically complex multi-line cases would mostly really want
whitespace cleanup anyway.

This is the exact same thing as the 'alloc_obj()' version, only much
smaller because there are a lot fewer users of the *alloc_flex()
interface.

As with alloc_obj() version, this was done entirely with mindless brute
force, using the same script, except using 'flex' in the pattern rather
than 'objs*'.

This was done entirely with mindless brute force, using

    git grep -l '\&lt;k[vmz]*alloc_objs*(.*, GFP_KERNEL)' |
        xargs sed -i 's/\(alloc_objs*(.*\), GFP_KERNEL)/\1)/'

to convert the new alloc_obj() users that had a simple GFP_KERNEL
argument to just drop that argument.

Note that due to the extreme simplicity of the scripting, any slightly
more complex cases spread over multiple lines would not be triggered:
they definitely exist, but this covers the vast bulk of the cases, and
the resulting diff is also then easier to check automatically.

For the same reason the 'flex' versions will be done as a separate
conversion.

<title>treewide: Replace kmalloc with kmalloc_obj for non-scalar types</title>

<content type='text'>
This is the result of running the Coccinelle script from
scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci. The script is designed to
avoid scalar types (which need careful case-by-case checking), and
instead replace kmalloc-family calls that allocate struct or union
object instances:

Single allocations:	kmalloc(sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_obj(TYPE, ...)

Array allocations:	kmalloc_array(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_objs(TYPE, COUNT, ...)

Flex array allocations:	kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_flex(*PTR, FAM, COUNT, ...)

(where TYPE may also be *VAR)

The resulting allocations no longer return "void *", instead returning
"TYPE *".

---[ end trace 0000000000000000 ]---

which requires an explanation.

When a port offloads a bridge, the switch must be reset to change
the VLAN awareness state (the SJA1105_VLAN_FILTERING reason for
sja1105_static_config_reload()). When the port leaves a VLAN-aware
bridge, it must also be reset for the same reason: it is returning
to operation as a VLAN-unaware standalone port.

sja1105_static_config_reload() triggers the phylink link replay helpers.

Because sja1105 is a switch, it has multiple user ports. During unbind,
ports are torn down one by one in dsa_switch_teardown_ports() -&gt;
dsa_port_teardown() -&gt; dsa_user_destroy().

The crash happens when the first user port is not part of the VLAN-aware
bridge, but any other user port is.

Tearing down the first user port causes phylink_destroy() to be called
on dp-&gt;pl, and this pointer to be set to NULL. Then, when the second
user port is torn down, this was offloading a VLAN-aware bridge port, so
indirectly it will trigger sja1105_static_config_reload().

The latter function iterates using dsa_switch_for_each_available_port(),
and unconditionally dereferences dp-&gt;pl, including for the
aforementioned torn down previous port, and passes that to phylink.
This is where the NULL pointer is coming from.

There are multiple levels at which this could be avoided:
- add an "if (dp-&gt;pl)" in sja1105_static_config_reload()
- make the phylink replay helpers NULL-tolerant
- mark ports as DSA_PORT_TYPE_UNUSED after dsa_port_phylink_destroy()
  has run, such that subsequent dsa_switch_for_each_available_port()
  iterations skip them
- disconnect the entire switch at once from switchdev and
  NETDEV_CHANGEUPPER events while unbinding, not just port by port,
  likely using a "ds-&gt;unbinding = true" mechanism or similar

however options 3 and 4 are quite heavy and might have side effects.
Although 2 allows to keep the driver simpler, the phylink API it not
NULL-tolerant in general and is not responsible for the NULL pointer
(this is something done by dsa_port_phylink_destroy()). So I went
with 1.

Functionally speaking, skipping the replay helpers for ports without
a phylink instance is fine, because that only happens during driver
removal (an operation which cannot be cancelled). The ports are not
required to work (although they probably still will - untested
assumption - as long as we don't overwrite the last port speed with
SJA1105_SPEED_AUTO).

David Yang is saying that struct flow_action_entry in
include/net/flow_offload.h has gained new fields and DSA's struct
dsa_mall_policer_tc_entry, derived from that, isn't keeping up.
This structure is passed to drivers and they are completely oblivious to
the values of fields they don't see.

This has happened before, and almost always the solution was to make the
DSA layer thinner and use the upstream data structures. Here, the reason
why we didn't do that is because struct flow_action_entry :: police is
an anonymous structure.

That is easily enough fixable, just name those fields "struct
flow_action_police" and reference them from DSA.

Make the according transformations to the two users (sja1105 and felix):
"rate_bytes_per_sec" -&gt; "rate_bytes_ps".
