[ Upstream commit 5d2ea5aebbb2f3ebde4403f9c55b2b057e5dd2d6 ]

Upon RQ destruction if the firmware command fails which is the
last resource to be destroyed some SW resources were already cleaned
regardless of the failure.

Now properly rollback the object to its original state upon such failure.

In order to avoid a use-after free in case someone tries to destroy the
object again, which results in the following kernel trace:
refcount_t: underflow; use-after-free.

<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit e61e6c415ba9ff2b32bb6780ce1b17d1d76238f1 ]

The overflow_work is using system wq to do overflow checks and updates
for PHC device timecounter, which might be overhelmed by other tasks.
But there is dedicated kthread in PTP subsystem designed for such
things. This patch changes the work queue to proper align with PTP
subsystem and to avoid overloading system work queue.
The adjfine() function acts the same way as overflow check worker,
we can postpone ptp aux worker till the next overflow period after
adjfine() was called.

Different core device types such as PFs and VFs shouldn't be affiliated
together since they have different capabilities, fix that by enforcing
type check before doing the affiliation.

Remove exposed driver version as it was done in other drivers,
so module version will work correctly by displaying the kernel
version for which it is compiled.

And move mlx5_core module name to general include, so auxiliary drivers
will be able to use it as a basis for a name in their device ID tables.

Internal timer mode (SW clock) requires some PTP clock related metadata
structs. Real time mode (HW clock) will not need these metadata structs.
This separation emphasize the different interfaces for HW clock and SW
clock.

[ Upstream commit bacd22df95147ed673bec4692ab2d4d585935241 ]

mlx5_cmd_cleanup_async_ctx should return only after all its callback
handlers were completed. Before this patch, the below race between
mlx5_cmd_cleanup_async_ctx and mlx5_cmd_exec_cb_handler was possible and
lead to a use-after-free:

1. mlx5_cmd_cleanup_async_ctx is called while num_inflight is 2 (i.e.
   elevated by 1, a single inflight callback).
2. mlx5_cmd_cleanup_async_ctx decreases num_inflight to 1.
3. mlx5_cmd_exec_cb_handler is called, decreases num_inflight to 0 and
   is about to call wake_up().
4. mlx5_cmd_cleanup_async_ctx calls wait_event, which returns
   immediately as the condition (num_inflight == 0) holds.
5. mlx5_cmd_cleanup_async_ctx returns.
6. The caller of mlx5_cmd_cleanup_async_ctx frees the mlx5_async_ctx
   object.
7. mlx5_cmd_exec_cb_handler goes on and calls wake_up() on the freed
   object.

Fix it by syncing using a completion object. Mark it completed when
num_inflight reaches 0.

[ Upstream commit 563476ae0c5e48a028cbfa38fa9d2fc0418eb88f ]

The CQ destroy is performed based on the IRQ number that is stored in
cq-&gt;irqn. That number wasn't set explicitly during CQ creation and as
expected some of the API users of mlx5_core_create_cq() forgot to update
it.

This caused to wrong synchronization call of the wrong IRQ with a number
0 instead of the real one.

As a fix, set the IRQ number directly in the mlx5_core_create_cq() and
update all users accordingly.

commit de641d74fb00f5b32f054ee154e31fb037e0db88 upstream.

This reverts commit fbdd0049d98d44914fc57d4b91f867f4996c787b.

Due to commit in fixes tag, netdevice events were received only in one net
namespace of mlx5_core_dev. Due to this when netdevice events arrive in
net namespace other than net namespace of mlx5_core_dev, they are missed.

This results in empty GID table due to RDMA device being detached from its
net device.

Hence, revert back to receive netdevice events in all net namespaces to
restore back RDMA functionality in non init_net net namespace. The
deadlock will have to be addressed in another patch.

<id>urn:sha1:fbdd0049d98d44914fc57d4b91f867f4996c787b</id>
<content type='text'>
When a mlx5 core devlink instance is reloaded in different net namespace,
its associated IB device is deleted and recreated.

Example sequence is:
$ ip netns add foo
$ devlink dev reload pci/0000:00:08.0 netns foo
$ ip netns del foo

mlx5 IB device needs to attach and detach the netdevice to it through the
netdev notifier chain during load and unload sequence.  A below call graph
of the unload flow.

cleanup_net()
   down_read(&amp;pernet_ops_rwsem); &lt;- first sem acquired
     ops_pre_exit_list()
       pre_exit()
         devlink_pernet_pre_exit()
           devlink_reload()
             mlx5_devlink_reload_down()
               mlx5_unload_one()
               [...]
                 mlx5_ib_remove()
                   mlx5_ib_unbind_slave_port()
                     mlx5_remove_netdev_notifier()
                       unregister_netdevice_notifier()
                         down_write(&amp;pernet_ops_rwsem);&lt;- recurrsive lock

Hence, when net namespace is deleted, mlx5 reload results in deadlock.

When deadlock occurs, devlink mutex is also held. This not only deadlocks
the mlx5 device under reload, but all the processes which attempt to
access unrelated devlink devices are deadlocked.

Hence, fix this by mlx5 ib driver to register for per net netdev notifier
instead of global one, which operats on the net namespace without holding
the pernet_ops_rwsem.
