The check originates from the initial implementation which was not based
on PTP time but on a standalone clock source. In the meantime we can now
program the PTPSCHTM register at runtime with the dynamic base time
(actually with a value that is 200 ns smaller, to avoid writing DELTA=0
in the Schedule Entry Points Parameters Table). And we also have logic
for moving the actual base time in the future of the PHC's current time
base, so the check for zero serves no purpose, since even if the user
will specify zero, that's not what will end up in the static config
table where the limitation is.

When activating tc-taprio offload on the switch ports, the TAS state
machine will try to check whether it is running or not, but will find
both the STARTED and STOPPED bits as false in the
sja1105_tas_check_running function. So the function will return -EINVAL
(an abnormal situation) and the kernel will keep printing this from the
TAS FSM workqueue:
[ 37.691971] sja1105 spi0.1: An operation returned -22
The reason is that the underlying function that gets called,
sja1105_ptp_commit, does not actually do a SPI_READ, but a SPI_WRITE. So
the command buffer remains initialized with zeroes instead of retrieving
the hardware state. Fix that.

The PTP egress timestamp N must be captured from register PTPEGR_TS[n],
where n = 2 * PORT + TSREG. There are 10 PTPEGR_TS registers, 2 per
port. We are only using TSREG=0.
As opposed to the management slots, which are 4 in number
(SJA1105_NUM_PORTS, minus the CPU port). Any management frame (which
includes PTP frames) can be sent to any non-CPU port through any
management slot. When the CPU port is not the last port (#4), there will
be a mismatch between the slot and the port number.
Luckily, the only mainline occurrence with this switch
(arch/arm/boot/dts/ls1021a-tsn.dts) does have the CPU port as #4, so the
issue did not manifest itself thus far.

This patch set contains two fixes for mlxsw. Please consider both for
stable.
Patch #1 from Amit fixes a wrong check during MAC validation when
creating router interfaces (RIFs). Given a particular order of
configuration this can result in the driver refusing to create new RIFs.
Patch #2 fixes a wrong trap configuration in which VRRP packets and
routing exceptions were policed by the same policer towards the CPU. In
certain situations this can prevent VRRP packets from reaching the CPU.
====================
Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
Currently, VRRP packets and packets that hit exceptions during routing
(e.g., MTU error) are policed using the same policer towards the CPU.
This means, for example, that misconfiguration of the MTU on a routed
interface can prevent VRRP packets from reaching the CPU, which in turn
can cause the VRRP daemon to assume it is the Master router.
Fix this by using a dedicated policer for VRRP packets.

When a router interface (RIF) is created the MAC address of the backing
netdev is verified to have the same MSBs as existing RIFs. This is
required in order to avoid changing existing RIF MAC addresses that all
share the same MSBs.
Loopback RIFs are special in this regard as they do not have a MAC
address, given they are only used to loop packets from the overlay to
the underlay.
Without this change, an error is returned when trying to create a RIF
after the creation of a GRE tunnel that is represented by a loopback
RIF. 'rif->dev->dev_addr' points to the GRE device's local IP, which
does not share the same MSBs as physical interfaces. Adding an IP
address to any physical interface results in:
Error: mlxsw_spectrum: All router interface MAC addresses must have the
same prefix.
Fix this by skipping loopback RIFs during MAC validation.

The DSA TX timestamping situation
This series is the moral v2 of "[PATCH net] net: dsa: sja1105: Fix
double delivery of TX timestamps to socket error queue" [0] which did
not manage to convince public opinion (actually it didn't convince me
neither).
This fixes PTP timestamping on one particular board, where the DSA
switch is sja1105 and the master is gianfar. Unfortunately there is no
way to make the fix more general without committing logical
inaccuracies: the SKBTX_IN_PROGRESS flag does serve a purpose, even if
the sja1105 driver is not using it now: it prevents delivering a SW
timestamp to the app socket when the HW timestamp will be provided. So
not setting this flag (the approach from v1) might create avoidable
complications in the future (not to mention that there isn't any
satisfactory explanation on why that would be the correct solution).
So the goal of this change set is to create a more strict framework for
DSA master devices when attached to PTP switches, and to fix the first
master driver that is overstepping its duties and is delivering
unsolicited TX timestamps.

It is possible to kill PTP on a DSA switch completely and absolutely,
until a reboot, with a simple command:
tcpdump -i eth2 -j adapter_unsynced
where eth2 is the switch's DSA master.
Why? Well, in short, the PTP API in place today is a bit rudimentary and
relies on applications to retrieve the TX timestamps by polling the
error queue and looking at the cmsg structure. But there is no timestamp
identification of any sorts (except whether it's HW or SW), you don't
know how many more timestamps are there to come, which one is this one,
from whom it is, etc. In other words, the SO_TIMESTAMPING API is
fundamentally limited in that you can get a single HW timestamp from the
stack.
And the "-j adapter_unsynced" flag of tcpdump enables hardware
timestamping.
So let's imagine what happens when the DSA master decides it wants to
deliver TX timestamps to the skb's socket too:
- The timestamp that the user space sees is taken by the DSA master.
Whereas the RX timestamp will eventually be overwritten by the DSA
switch. So the RX and TX timestamps will be in different time bases
(aka garbage).
- The user space applications have no way to deal with the second (real)
TX timestamp finally delivered by the DSA switch, or even to know to
wait for it.
Take ptp4l from the linuxptp project, for example. This is its behavior
after running tcpdump, before the patch:

The ptp4l program itself is heavily patched to show this (more details
here [0]). Otherwise, by default it just hangs.
On the other hand, with the DSA patch to disallow HW timestamping
applied:
tcpdump -i eth2 -j adapter_unsynced
tcpdump: SIOCSHWTSTAMP failed: Device or resource busy
So it is a fact of life that PTP timestamping on the DSA master is
incompatible with timestamping on the switch MAC, at least with the
current API. And if the switch supports PTP, taking the timestamps from
the switch MAC is highly preferable anyway, due to the fact that those
don't contain the queuing latencies of the switch. So just disallow PTP
on the DSA master if there is any PTP-capable switch attached.

The driver wrongly assumes that it is the only entity that can set the
SKBTX_IN_PROGRESS bit of the current skb. Therefore, in the
gfar_clean_tx_ring function, where the TX timestamp is collected if
necessary, the aforementioned bit is used to discriminate whether or not
the TX timestamp should be delivered to the socket's error queue.
But a stacked driver such as a DSA switch can also set the
SKBTX_IN_PROGRESS bit, which is actually exactly what it should do in
order to denote that the hardware timestamping process is undergoing.
Therefore, gianfar would misinterpret the "in progress" bit as being its
own, and deliver a second skb clone in the socket's error queue,
completely throwing off a PTP process which is not expecting to receive
it, _even though_ TX timestamping is not enabled for gianfar.
There have been discussions [0] as to whether non-MAC drivers need or
not to set SKBTX_IN_PROGRESS at all (whose purpose is to avoid sending 2
timestamps, a sw and a hw one, to applications which only expect one).
But as of this patch, there are at least 2 PTP drivers that would break
in conjunction with gianfar: the sja1105 DSA switch and the felix
switch, by way of its ocelot core driver.
So regardless of that conclusion, fix the gianfar driver to not do stuff
based on flags set by others and not intended for it.

When support for !MMU was added, the declaration of
__asm_copy_to_user() & __asm_copy_from_user() were #ifdefed
out hence their EXPORT_SYMBOL() give an error message like:
.../riscv_ksyms.c:13:15: error: '__asm_copy_to_user' undeclared here
.../riscv_ksyms.c:14:15: error: '__asm_copy_from_user' undeclared here
Since these symbols are not defined with !MMU it's wrong to export them.
Same for __clear_user() (even though this one is also declared in
include/asm-generic/uaccess.h and thus doesn't give an error message).
Fix this by doing the EXPORT_SYMBOL() directly where these symbols
are defined: inside lib/uaccess.S itself.

====================
ethtool netlink interface, part 1
This is first part of netlink based alternative userspace interface for
ethtool. It aims to address some long known issues with the ioctl
interface, mainly lack of extensibility, raciness, limited error reporting
and absence of notifications. The goal is to allow userspace ethtool
utility to provide all features it currently does but without using the
ioctl interface. However, some features provided by ethtool ioctl API will
be available through other netlink interfaces (rtnetlink, devlink) if it's
more appropriate.
The interface uses generic netlink family "ethtool" and provides multicast
group "monitor" which is used for notifications. Documentation for the
interface is in Documentation/networking/ethtool-netlink.rst file. The
netlink interface is optional, it is built when CONFIG_ETHTOOL_NETLINK
(bool) option is enabled.
There are three types of request messages distinguished by suffix "_GET"
(query for information), "_SET" (modify parameters) and "_ACT" (perform an
action). Kernel reply messages have name with additional suffix "_REPLY"
(e.g. ETHTOOL_MSG_SETTINGS_GET_REPLY). Most "_SET" and "_ACT" message types
do not have matching reply type as only some of them need additional reply
data beyond numeric error code and extack. Kernel also broadcasts
notification messages ("_NTF" suffix) on changes.
Basic concepts:
- make extensions easier not only by allowing new attributes but also by
imposing as few artificial limits as possible, e.g. by using arbitrary
size bit sets for most bitmap attributes or by not using fixed size
strings
- use extack for error reporting and warnings
- send netlink notifications on changes (even if they were done using the
ioctl interface) and actions
- avoid the racy read/modify/write cycle between kernel and userspace by
sending only attributes which userspace wants to change; there is still
a read/modify/write cycle between generic kernel code and ethtool_ops
handler in NIC driver but it is only in kernel and under RTNL lock
- reduce the number of name lists that need to be kept in sync between
kernel and userspace (e.g. recognized link modes)
- where feasible, allow dump requests to query specific information for all
network devices
- as parsing and generating netlink messages is more complicated than
simply copying data structures between userspace API and ethtool_ops
handlers (which most ioctl commands do), split the code into multiple
files in net/ethtool directory; move net/core/ethtool.c also to this
directory and rename it to ioctl.c
Changes between v8 and v9:
- fix ethnl_update_u8()
- fix description of ETHTOOL_A_LINKSTATE_LINK in rst file
- add explanation of verbose vs. compact bitset usage to documentation
- link ethtool-netlink.rst into toctree
Main changes between v7 and v8:
- preliminary patches sent as a separate series (already in net-next)
- split notification related changes out of _SET patches
- drop request specific flags from common header
- use FLAG/flag rather than GFLAG/gflag for global flags (as there are
only global flags now)
- allow device names up to ALTIFNAMSIZ characters
- rename ETHTOOL_A_BITSET_LIST to ETHTOOL_A_BITSET_NOMASK
- rename ETHTOOL_A_BIT{,S}_* to ETHTOOL_A_BITSET_BIT{,S}_*
- use standard bitset helpers for link modes (rather than in-place
conversion)
- use "default" rather than "standard" for unified _GET handlers
- fixed 64-bit big endian bitset code
Main changes between v6 and v7:
- split complex messages into small single purpose ones (drop info and
request masks and one level of nesting)
- separate request information and reply data into two structures
- refactor bitset handling (no simultaneous u32/ulong handling but avoid
kmalloc() except for long bitmaps on 64-bit big endian architectures)
- use only fixed size strings internally (will be replaced by char *
eventually but that will require rewriting also existing ioctl code)
- rework ethnl_update_* helpers to return error code
- rename request flag constants (to ETHTOOL_[GR]FLAG_ prefix)
- convert documentation to rst
Main changes between v5 and v6:
- use ETHTOOL_MSG_ prefix for message types
- replace ETHA_ prefix for netlink attributes by ETHTOOL_A_
- replace ETH_x_IM_y for infomask bits by ETHTOOL_IM_x_y
- split GET reply types from SET requests and notifications
- split kernel and userspace message types into different enums
- remove INFO_GET requests from submitted part
- drop EVENT notifications (use rtnetlink and on-demand string set load)
- reorganize patches to reduce the number of intermitent warnings
- unify request/reply header and its processing
- another nest around strings in a string set for consistency
- more consistent identifier naming
- coding style cleanup
- get rid of some of the helpers
- set bad attribute in extack where applicable
- various bug fixes
- improve documentation and code comments, more kerneldoc comments
- more verbose commit messages
Changes between v4 and v5:
- do not panic on failed initialization, only WARN()
Main changes between RFC v3 and v4:
- use more kerneldoc style comments
- strict attribute policy checking
- use macros for tables of link mode names and parameters
- provide permanent hardware address in rtnetlink
- coding style cleanup
- split too long patches, reorder
- wrap more ETHA_SETTINGS_* attributes in nests
- add also some SET_* implementation into submitted part
Main changes between RFC v2 and RFC v3:
- do not allow building as a module (no netdev notifiers needed)
- drop some obsolete fields
- add permanent hw address, timestamping and private flags support
- rework bitset handling to get rid of variable length arrays
- notify monitor on device renames
- restructure GET_SETTINGS/SET_SETTINGS messages
- split too long patches and submit only first part of the series
Main changes between RFC v1 and RFC v2:
- support dumps for all "get" requests
- provide notifications for changes related to supported request types
- support getting string sets (both global and per device)
- support getting/setting device features
- get rid of family specific header, everything passed as attributes

Significant part of GET request processing is common for most request
types but unfortunately it cannot be easily separated from type specific
code as we need to alternate between common actions (parsing common request
header, allocating message and filling netlink/genetlink headers etc.) and
specific actions (querying the device, composing the reply). The processing
also happens in three different situations: "do" request, "dump" request
and notification, each doing things in slightly different way.
The request specific code is implemented in four or five callbacks defined
in an instance of struct get_request_ops:
parse_request() - parse incoming message
prepare_data() - retrieve data from driver or NIC
reply_size() - estimate reply message size
fill_reply() - compose reply message
cleanup_data() - (optional) clean up additional data
Other members of struct get_request_ops describe the data structure holding
information from client request and data used to compose the message. The
default handlers ethnl_default_doit(), ethnl_default_dumpit(),
ethnl_default_start() and ethnl_default_done() can be then used in genl_ops
handler. Notification handler will be introduced in a later patch.

Add infrastructure for ethtool netlink notifications. There is only one
multicast group "monitor" which is used to notify userspace about changes
and actions performed. Notification messages (types using suffix _NTF)
share the format with replies to GET requests.
Notifications are supposed to be broadcasted on every configuration change,
whether it is done using the netlink interface or ioctl one. Netlink SET
requests only trigger a notification if some data is actually changed.
To trigger an ethtool notification, both ethtool netlink and external code
use ethtool_notify() helper. This helper requires RTNL to be held and may
sleep. Handlers sending messages for specific notification message types
are registered in ethnl_notify_handlers array. As notifications can be
triggered from other code, ethnl_ok flag is used to prevent an attempt to
send notification before genetlink family is registered.

The ethtool netlink code uses common framework for passing arbitrary
length bit sets to allow future extensions. A bitset can be a list (only
one bitmap) or can consist of value and mask pair (used e.g. when client
want to modify only some bits). A bitset can use one of two formats:
verbose (bit by bit) or compact.
Verbose format consists of bitset size (number of bits), list flag and
an array of bit nests, telling which bits are part of the list or which
bits are in the mask and which of them are to be set. In requests, bits
can be identified by index (position) or by name. In replies, kernel
provides both index and name. Verbose format is suitable for "one shot"
applications like standard ethtool command as it avoids the need to
either keep bit names (e.g. link modes) in sync with kernel or having to
add an extra roundtrip for string set request (e.g. for private flags).
Compact format uses one (list) or two (value/mask) arrays of 32-bit
words to store the bitmap(s). It is more suitable for long running
applications (ethtool in monitor mode or network management daemons)
which can retrieve the names once and then pass only compact bitmaps to
save space.
Userspace requests can use either format; ETHTOOL_FLAG_COMPACT_BITSETS
flag in request header tells kernel which format to use in reply.
Notifications always use compact format.
As some code uses arrays of unsigned long for internal representation and
some arrays of u32 (or even a single u32), two sets of parse/compose
helpers are introduced. To avoid code duplication, helpers for unsigned
long arrays are implemented as wrappers around helpers for u32 arrays.
There are two reasons for this choice: (1) u32 arrays are more frequent in
ethtool code and (2) unsigned long array can be always interpreted as an
u32 array on little endian 64-bit and all 32-bit architectures while we
would need special handling for odd number of u32 words in the opposite
direction.

GXBB and newer SoCs use the fixed FCLK_DIV2 (1GHz) clock as input for
the m250_sel clock. Meson8b and Meson8m2 use MPLL2 instead, whose rate
can be adjusted at runtime.
So far we have been running MPLL2 with ~250MHz (and the internal
m250_div with value 1), which worked enough that we could transfer data
with an TX delay of 4ns. Unfortunately there is high packet loss with
an RGMII PHY when transferring data (receiving data works fine though).
Odroid-C1's u-boot is running with a TX delay of only 2ns as well as
the internal m250_div set to 2 - no lost (TX) packets can be observed
with that setting in u-boot.
Manual testing has shown that the TX packet loss goes away when using
the following settings in Linux (the vendor kernel uses the same
settings):
- MPLL2 clock set to ~500MHz
- m250_div set to 2
- TX delay set to 2ns on the MAC side
Update the m250_div divider settings to only accept dividers greater or
equal 2 to fix the TX delay generated by the MAC.

There's no skb_pull performed when a mirred action is set at egress of a
mac device, with a target device/action that expects skb->data to point
at the network header.
As a result, either the target device is errornously given an skb with
data pointing to the mac (egress case), or the net stack receives the
skb with data pointing to the mac (ingress case).
E.g:
# tc qdisc add dev eth9 root handle 1: prio
# tc filter add dev eth9 parent 1: prio 9 protocol ip handle 9 basic \
action mirred egress redirect dev tun0
(tun0 is a tun device. result: tun0 errornously gets the eth header

Revise the push/pull logic of tcf_mirred_act() to not rely on the
skb_at_tc_ingress() vs tcf_mirred_act_wants_ingress() comparison, as it
does not cover all "pull" cases.
Instead, calculate whether the required action on the target device
requires the data to point at the network header, and compare this to
whether skb->data points to network header - and make the push/pull
adjustments as necessary.

For years we disabled Hystart ACK train detection at Google
because it was fooled by TCP pacing.
ACK train detection uses a simple heuristic, detecting if
we receive ACK past half the RTT, to exit slow start before
hitting the bottleneck and experience massive drops.
But pacing by design might delay packets up to RTT/2,
so we need to tweak the Hystart logic to be aware of this
extra delay.

Added a 100 usec delay at receiver.

After switching ca->delay_min to usec resolution, we exit
slow start prematurely for very low RTT flows, setting
snd_ssthresh to 20.
The reason is that delay_min is fed with RTT of small packet
trains. Then as cwnd is increased, TCP sends bigger TSO packets.
LRO/GRO aggregation and/or interrupt mitigation strategies
on receiver tend to inflate RTT samples.
Fix this by adding to delay_min the expected delay of
two TSO packets, given current pacing rate.
Tested:
Sender uses pfifo_fast qdisc

Current 1ms clock feeds ca->round_start, ca->delay_min,
ca->last_ack.
This is quite problematic for data-center flows, where delay_min
is way below 1 ms.
This means Hystart Train detection triggers every time jiffies value
is updated, since "((s32)(now - ca->round_start) > ca->delay_min >> 4)"
expression becomes true.
This kind of random behavior can be solved by reusing the existing
usec timestamp that TCP keeps in tp->tcp_mstamp
Note that a followup patch will tweak things a bit, because
during slow start, GRO aggregation on receivers naturally
increases the RTT as TSO packets gradually come to ~64KB size.
To recap, right after this patch CUBIC Hystart train detection
is more aggressive, since short RTT flows might exit slow start at
cwnd = 20, instead of being possibly unbounded.
Following patch will address this problem.
