<content type='text'>
The blamed commit and others in that patch set started the trend
of reusing existing DSA driver API for a new purpose: calling
ds-&gt;ops-&gt;port_fdb_add() on the CPU port.

The lantiq_gswip driver was not prepared to handle that, as can be seen
from the many errors that Daniel presents in the logs:

[  174.050000] gswip 1e108000.switch: port 2 failed to add fa:aa:72:f4:8b:1e vid 1 to fdb: -22
[  174.060000] gswip 1e108000.switch lan2: entered promiscuous mode
[  174.070000] gswip 1e108000.switch: port 2 failed to add 00:01:02:03:04:02 vid 0 to fdb: -22
[  174.090000] gswip 1e108000.switch: port 2 failed to add 00:01:02:03:04:02 vid 1 to fdb: -22
[  174.090000] gswip 1e108000.switch: port 2 failed to delete fa:aa:72:f4:8b:1e vid 1 from fdb: -2

The errors are because gswip_port_fdb() wants to get a handle to the
bridge that originated these FDB events, to associate it with a FID.
Absolutely honourable purpose, however this only works for user ports.

To get the bridge that generated an FDB entry for the CPU port, one
would need to look at the db.bridge.dev argument. But this was
introduced in commit c26933639b54 ("net: dsa: request drivers to perform
FDB isolation"), first appeared in v5.18, and when the blamed commit was
introduced in v5.14, no such API existed.

So the core DSA feature was introduced way too soon for lantiq_gswip.
Not acting on these host FDB entries and suppressing any errors has no
other negative effect, and practically returns us to not supporting the
host filtering feature at all - peacefully, this time.

Fixes: 10fae4ac89ce ("net: dsa: include bridge addresses which are local in the host fdb list")

<title>net: dsa: lantiq_gswip: move gswip_add_single_port_br() call to port_setup()</title>

<id>urn:sha1:c0054b25e2f1045f47b4954cf13a539e5e6047df</id>
<content type='text'>
A port added to a "single port bridge" operates as standalone, and this
is mutually exclusive to being part of a Linux bridge. In fact,
gswip_port_bridge_join() calls gswip_add_single_port_br() with
add=false, i.e. removes the port from the "single port bridge" to enable
autonomous forwarding.

The blamed commit seems to have incorrectly thought that ds-&gt;ops-&gt;port_enable()
is called one time per port, during the setup phase of the switch.

However, it is actually called during the ndo_open() implementation of
DSA user ports, which is to say that this sequence of events:

1. ip link set swp0 down
2. ip link add br0 type bridge
3. ip link set swp0 master br0
4. ip link set swp0 up

would cause swp0 to join back the "single port bridge" which step 3 had
just removed it from.

The correct DSA hook for one-time actions per port at switch init time
is ds-&gt;ops-&gt;port_setup(). This is what seems to match the coder's
intention; also see the comment at the beginning of the file:

 * At the initialization the driver allocates one bridge table entry for
   ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 * each switch port which is used when the port is used without an
 * explicit bridge.

<content type='text'>
For some reason Broadcom decided that BCM53101 uses 0.5s increments for
the ageing time register, but kept the field width the same [1]. Due to
this, the actual ageing time was always half of what was configured.

Fix this by adapting the limits and value calculation for BCM53101.

So far it looks like this is the only chip with the increased tick
speed:

$ grep -l -r "Specifies the aging time in 0.5 seconds" cdk/PKG/chip | sort

Fix multiple fwnode reference leaks:

1. The function calls fwnode_get_named_child_node() to get the "leds" node,
   but never calls fwnode_handle_put(leds) to release this reference.

2. Within the fwnode_for_each_child_node() loop, the early return
   paths that don't properly release the "led" fwnode reference.

This fix follows the same pattern as commit d029edefed39
("net dsa: qca8k: fix usages of device_get_named_child_node()")

ksz9477_hsr_join() is called once to setup the HSR port membership, but
the port can be enabled later, or disabled and enabled back and the port
membership is not set correctly inside ksz_update_port_member().  The
added code always use the correct HSR port membership for HSR port that
is enabled.

When BCM5325 support was added in c45655386e53 ("net: dsa: b53: add
support for FDB operations on 5325/5365"), the register used for ARL access
was made conditional on the chip.

But in b53_fdb_dump(), instead of the register argument the page
argument was replaced, causing it to write to a reserved page 0x50 on
!BCM5325*. Writing to this page seems to completely lock the switch up:

Restore the correct page B53_ARLIO_PAGE again, and move the offset
argument to the correct place.

*On BCM5325, this became a write to the MIB page of Port 1. Still
a reserved offset, but likely less brokenness from that write.

ksz8873_valid_regs[] was added for register access for KSZ8863/KSZ8873
switches, but the reset register is not in the list so
ksz8_reset_switch() does not take any effect.

Replace regmap_update_bits() using ksz_regmap_8 with ksz_rmw8() so that
an error message will be given if the register is not defined.

A side effect of not resetting the switch is the static MAC table is not
cleared.  Further additions to the table will show write error as there
are only 8 entries in the table.

<id>urn:sha1:d9d87d90cc0b10cd56ae353f50b11417e7d21712</id>
<content type='text'>
The conversion of all GPIO drivers to using the .set_rv() and
.set_multiple_rv() callbacks from struct gpio_chip (which - unlike their
predecessors - return an integer and allow the controller drivers to
indicate failures to users) is now complete and the legacy ones have
been removed. Rename the new callbacks back to their original names in
one sweeping change.

Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski:
 "Core &amp; protocols:

   - Wrap datapath globals into net_aligned_data, to avoid false sharing

   - Preserve MSG_ZEROCOPY in forwarding (e.g. out of a container)

   - Add SO_INQ and SCM_INQ support to AF_UNIX

   - Add SIOCINQ support to AF_VSOCK

   - Add TCP_MAXSEG sockopt to MPTCP

   - Add IPv6 force_forwarding sysctl to enable forwarding per interface

   - Make TCP validation of whether packet fully fits in the receive
     window and the rcv_buf more strict. With increased use of HW
     aggregation a single "packet" can be multiple 100s of kB

   - Add MSG_MORE flag to optimize large TCP transmissions via sockmap,
     improves latency up to 33% for sockmap users

   - Convert TCP send queue handling from tasklet to BH workque

   - Improve BPF iteration over TCP sockets to see each socket exactly
     once

   - Remove obsolete and unused TCP RFC3517/RFC6675 loss recovery code

   - Support enabling kernel threads for NAPI processing on per-NAPI
     instance basis rather than a whole device. Fully stop the kernel
     NAPI thread when threaded NAPI gets disabled. Previously thread
     would stick around until ifdown due to tricky synchronization

   - Allow multicast routing to take effect on locally-generated packets

   - Add output interface argument for End.X in segment routing

   - MCTP: add support for gateway routing, improve bind() handling

   - Don't require rtnl_lock when fetching an IPv6 neighbor over Netlink

   - Add a new neighbor flag ("extern_valid"), which cedes refresh
     responsibilities to userspace. This is needed for EVPN multi-homing
     where a neighbor entry for a multi-homed host needs to be synced
     across all the VTEPs among which the host is multi-homed

   - Support NUD_PERMANENT for proxy neighbor entries

   - Add a new queuing discipline for IETF RFC9332 DualQ Coupled AQM

   - Add sequence numbers to netconsole messages. Unregister
     netconsole's console when all net targets are removed. Code
     refactoring. Add a number of selftests

   - Align IPSec inbound SA lookup to RFC 4301. Only SPI and protocol
     should be used for an inbound SA lookup

   - Support inspecting ref_tracker state via DebugFS

   - Don't force bonding advertisement frames tx to ~333 ms boundaries.
     Add broadcast_neighbor option to send ARP/ND on all bonded links

   - Allow providing upcall pid for the 'execute' command in openvswitch

   - Remove DCCP support from Netfilter's conntrack

   - Disallow multiple packet duplications in the queuing layer

   - Prevent use of deprecated iptables code on PREEMPT_RT

  Driver API:

   - Support RSS and hashing configuration over ethtool Netlink

   - Add dedicated ethtool callbacks for getting and setting hashing
     fields

   - Add support for power budget evaluation strategy in PSE /
     Power-over-Ethernet. Generate Netlink events for overcurrent etc

   - Support DPLL phase offset monitoring across all device inputs.
     Support providing clock reference and SYNC over separate DPLL
     inputs

   - Support traffic classes in devlink rate API for bandwidth
     management

   - Remove rtnl_lock dependency from UDP tunnel port configuration
