Andrew Lunn says:
====================
D in DSA patches
The D in DSA is distributed, meaning multiple switches can be
connected together. Currently no mainline system does this, and so the
code is broken. This patchset contains two fixes, and a small helper.
With three of more switches, the current device tree binding is not
sufficient to express the routing between the switches. The first
patch extends the binding, in a backwards compatible way, to allow a
link between a switch to describe all the switches accessible over the
link, not just the direct neighbor.
The third patch fixes the port configuration on newer devices for
links connecting switches.

Older devices only support a single DSA frame format, where as newer
devices have two. Take this into account when configuring a DSA port.
The port needs to be in plain old DSA mode, since this is a DSA link,
where as the newer format can be used for the CPU port.

With more than two switches in a hierarchy, it becomes necessary to
describe multi-hop routes between switches. The current binding does
not allow this, although the older platform_data did. Extend the link
property to be a list rather than a single phandle to a remote switch.
It is then possible to express that a port should be used to reach
more than one switch and the switch maybe more than one hop away.

The driver doesn't clear buffer_info->dma after calling
dma_unmap_single() in all cases. This has been discovered by changing
the mtu twice, which caused the following backtrace.

e1000_open
When e1000e_setup_rx_resources is failed in e1000_open,
e1000e_free_tx_resources in "err_setup_rx" segment is executed.
"writel(0, tx_ring->head)" statement in e1000_clean_tx_ring
in e1000e_free_tx_resources will cause a null poonter dereference(crash),
because "tx_ring->head" is only assigned in e1000_configure_tx
in e1000_configure, but it is after e1000e_setup_rx_resources.
This patch moves head/tail register writing to e1000_configure_tx/rx,
which can fix this problem. It is inspired by igb_configure_tx_ring
in the igb driver.

When the .remove() callback for a PF is called, SR-IOV support for the
device is disabled, which requires unbinding and removing the VFs.
The VFs may be in-use either by the host kernel or userspace, such as
assigned to a VM through vfio-pci. In this latter case, the VFs may
be removed either by shutting down the VM or hot-unplugging the
devices from the VM. Unfortunately in the case of a Windows 2012 R2
guest, hot-unplug is broken due to the ordering of the PF driver
teardown. Disabling SR-IOV prior to unregister_netdev() avoids this
issue.

During driver probing the following code path is triggered.
igb_probe
->igb_sw_init
->igb_probe_vfs
->igb_pci_enable_sriov
->igb_sriov_reinit
Doing the SR-IOV re-init is not necessary during probing since we're
starting from scratch. Here we can call igb_enable_sriov() right away.
Running igb_sriov_reinit() during igb_probe() also seems to cause
occasional packet loss on some onboard 82576 NICs. Reproduced on
Dell and HP servers with onboard 82576 NICs.

When initializing igb driver (e.g. 82576, I350), IGB_FLAG_QUEUE_PAIRS is
set if adapter->rss_queues exceeds half of max_rss_queues in
igb_init_queue_configuration().
On the other hand, IGB_FLAG_QUEUE_PAIRS is not set even if the number of
queues exceeds half of max_combined in igb_set_channels() when changing
the number of queues by "ethtool -L".
In this case, if numvecs is larger than MAX_MSIX_ENTRIES (10), the size
of adapter->msix_entries[], an overflow can occur in
igb_set_interrupt_capability(), which in turn leads to an oops.
Fix this problem as follows:
- When changing the number of queues by "ethtool -L", set
IGB_FLAG_QUEUE_PAIRS in the same way as initializing igb driver.
- When increasing the size of q_vector, reallocate it appropriately.
(With IGB_FLAG_QUEUE_PAIRS set, the size of q_vector gets larger.)
Another possible way to fix this problem is to cap the queues at its
initial number, which is the number of the initial online cpus. But this
is not the optimal way because we cannot increase queues when another
cpu becomes online.
Note that before commit cd14ef54d25b ("igb: Change to use statically
allocated array for MSIx entries"), this problem did not cause oops
but just made the number of queues become 1 because of entering msi_only
mode in igb_set_interrupt_capability().

net: Convert drivers to IFF_NO_QUEUE and cleanup afterwards
This series converts in-tree users away from the old and deprecated

Those were all workarounds for the formerly double meaning of
tx_queue_len, which broke scheduling algorithms if untreated.
Now that all in-tree drivers have been converted away from setting
tx_queue_len = 0, it should be safe to drop these workarounds for
categorically broken setups.

Due to the introduction of IFF_NO_QUEUE, there is a better way for
drivers to indicate that no qdisc should be attached by default. Though,
the old convention can't be dropped since ignoring that setting would
break drivers still using it. Instead, add a warning so out-of-tree
driver maintainers get a chance to adjust their code before we finally
get rid of any special handling of tx_queue_len == 0.

Alex Deucher, Mark Rustad and Alexander Holler reported a regression
with the latest v4.2-rc4 kernel, which breaks some SATA controllers.
With multi-MSI capable SATA controllers, only the first port works,
all other ports time out when executing SATA commands.
This happens because the first argument to assign_irq_vector_policy()
is always the base linux irq number of the multi MSI interrupt block,
so all subsequent vector assignments operate on the base linux irq
number, so all MSI irqs are handled as the first irq number. Therefor
the other MSI irqs of a device are never set up correctly and never
fire.
Add the loop iterator to the base irq number so all vectors are
assigned correctly.

The routines in scsi_rpm.c assume that if a runtime-PM callback is
invoked for a SCSI device, it can only mean that the device's driver
has asked the block layer to handle the runtime power management (by
calling blk_pm_runtime_init(), which among other things sets q->dev).
However, this assumption turns out to be wrong for things like the ses
driver. Normally ses devices are not allowed to do runtime PM, but
userspace can override this setting. If this happens, the kernel gets
a NULL pointer dereference when blk_post_runtime_resume() tries to use
the uninitialized q->dev pointer.
This patch fixes the problem by calling the block layer's runtime-PM
routines only if the device's driver really does have a runtime-PM
callback routine. Since ses doesn't define any such callbacks, the
crash won't occur.
This fixes Bugzilla #101371.

fnic_queuecommand() to avoid deadloack
We added changes in fnic driver patch 1.6.0.16 to acquire
io_req_lock in fnic_queuecommand() before issuing I/O so that io completion
is serialized. But when releasing the lock we check for the I/O flag and
this could be modified if IO abort occurs before I/O completion. In this case
we wont release the lock and causes deadlock in some scenerios. Using the
local variable to check the IO lock status will resolve the problem.

U-Boot is often used to boot the kernel on ARM boards, but uImage
is not built by "make all", so we are often inclined to do
"make all uImage" to generate DTBs, modules and uImage in a single

"make all uImage" could generate an invalid uImage if it is run with
the parallel option (-j).
You can reproduce this problem with the following procedure:

Please notice the uImage is extremely small when this issue is
encountered. Besides, "Kernel: arch/arm/boot/zImage is ready" is
displayed twice, before and after the uImage log.
The root cause of this is the race condition between zImage and
uImage. Actually, uImage depends on zImage, but the dependency
between the two is only described in arch/arm/boot/Makefile.
Because arch/arm/boot/Makefile is not included from the top-level
Makefile, it cannot know the dependency between zImage and uImage.
Consequently, when we run make with the parallel option, Kbuild
updates vmlinux first, and then two different threads descends into
the arch/arm/boot/Makefile almost at the same time, one for updating
zImage and the other for uImage. While one thread is re-generating
zImage, the other also tries to update zImage before creating uImage
on top of that. zImage is overwritten by the slower thread and then
uImage is created based on the half-written zImage.
This is the reason why "Kernel: arch/arm/boot/zImage is ready" is
displayed twice, and a broken uImage is created.
The same problem could happen on bootpImage.
This commit adds dependencies among Image, zImage, uImage, and
bootpImage to arch/arm/Makefile, which is included from the
top-level Makefile.
