rtlwifi: rtl8821ae: fix firmware is not ready to run

2018-07-22T12:25:53+00:00

commit 9a98302de19991d51e067b88750585203b2a3ab6 upstream. Without this patch, firmware will not run properly on rtl8821ae, and it causes bad user experience. For example, bad connection performance with low rate, higher power consumption, and so on. rtl8821ae uses two kinds of firmwares for normal and WoWlan cases, and each firmware has firmware data buffer and size individually. Original code always overwrite size of normal firmware rtlpriv->rtlhal.fwsize, and this mismatch causes firmware checksum error, then firmware can't start. In this situation, driver gives message "Firmware is not ready to run!".

net/mlx5: Fix command interface race in polling mode

2018-07-22T12:25:53+00:00

[ Upstream commit d412c31dae053bf30a1bc15582a9990df297a660 ] The command interface can work in two modes: Events and Polling. In the general case, each time we invoke a command, a work is queued to handle it. When working in events, the interrupt handler completes the command execution. On the other hand, when working in polling mode, the work itself completes it. Due to a bug in the work handler, a command could have been completed by the interrupt handler, while the work handler hasn't finished yet, causing the it to complete once again if the command interface mode was changed from Events to polling after the interrupt handler was called. mlx5_unload_one() mlx5_stop_eqs() // Destroy the EQ before cmd EQ ...cmd_work_handler() write_doorbell() --> EVENT_TYPE_CMD mlx5_cmd_comp_handler() // First free free_ent(cmd, ent->idx) complete(&ent->done) <-- mlx5_stop_eqs //cmd was complete // move to polling before destroying the last cmd EQ mlx5_cmd_use_polling() cmd->mode = POLL; --> cmd_work_handler (continues) if (cmd->mode == POLL) mlx5_cmd_comp_handler() // Double free The solution is to store the cmd->mode before writing the doorbell.

vhost_net: validate sock before trying to put its fd

r8152: napi hangup fix after disconnect

2018-07-22T12:25:53+00:00

[ Upstream commit 0ee1f4734967af8321ecebaf9c74221ace34f2d5 ] When unplugging an r8152 adapter while the interface is UP, the NIC becomes unusable. usb->disconnect (aka rtl8152_disconnect) deletes napi. Then, rtl8152_disconnect calls unregister_netdev and that invokes netdev->ndo_stop (aka rtl8152_close). rtl8152_close tries to napi_disable, but the napi is already deleted by disconnect above. So the first while loop in napi_disable never finishes. This results in complete deadlock of the network layer as there is rtnl_mutex held by unregister_netdev. So avoid the call to napi_disable in rtl8152_close when the device is already gone. The other calls to usb_kill_urb, cancel_delayed_work_sync, netif_stop_queue etc. seem to be fine. The urb and netdev is not destroyed yet. Signed-off-by: Jiri Slaby Cc: linux-usb@vger.kernel.org Cc: netdev@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: David S. Miller Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

qed: Limit msix vectors in kdump kernel to the minimum required count.

2018-07-22T12:25:53+00:00

[ Upstream commit bb7858ba1102f82470a917e041fd23e6385c31be ] Memory size is limited in the kdump kernel environment. Allocation of more msix-vectors (or queues) consumes few tens of MBs of memory, which might lead to the kdump kernel failure. This patch adds changes to limit the number of MSI-X vectors in kdump kernel to minimum required value (i.e., 2 per engine).

net: sungem: fix rx checksum support

2018-07-22T12:25:52+00:00

[ Upstream commit 12b03558cef6d655d0d394f5e98a6fd07c1f6c0f ] After commit 88078d98d1bb ("net: pskb_trim_rcsum() and CHECKSUM_COMPLETE are friends"), sungem owners reported the infamous "eth0: hw csum failure" message. CHECKSUM_COMPLETE has in fact never worked for this driver, but this was masked by the fact that upper stacks had to strip the FCS, and therefore skb->ip_summed was set back to CHECKSUM_NONE before my recent change. Driver configures a number of bytes to skip when the chip computes the checksum, and for some reason only half of the Ethernet header was skipped. Then a second problem is that we should strip the FCS by default, unless the driver is updated to eventually support NETIF_F_RXFCS in the future. Finally, a driver should check if NETIF_F_RXCSUM feature is enabled or not, so that the admin can turn off rx checksum if wanted. Many thanks to Andreas Schwab and Mathieu Malaterre for their help in debugging this issue.
