[ Upstream commit 79514ef670e9e575a1fe36922268c439d0f0ca8a ]

Commit a47b70ea86bd ("ravb: unmap descriptors when freeing rings") has
introduced the issue seen in [1] reproduced on H3ULCB board.

Fix this by relocating the RX skb ringbuffer free operation, so that
swiotlb page unmapping can be done first. Freeing of aligned TX buffers
is not relevant to the issue seen in [1]. Still, reposition TX free
calls as well, to have all kfree() operations performed consistently
_after_ dma_unmap_*()/dma_free_*().

[1] Console screenshot with the problem reproduced:

[ Upstream commit 9577b174cd0323d287c994ef0891db71666d0765 ]

When running SRIOV, warnings for SRQ LIMIT events flood the Hypervisor's
message log when (correct, normally operating) apps use SRQ LIMIT events
as a trigger to post WQEs to SRQs.

Add more information to the existing debug printout for SRQ_LIMIT, and
output the warning messages only for the SRQ CATAS ERROR event.

<title>ibmveth: Add a proper check for the availability of the checksum features</title>

[ Upstream commit 23d28a859fb847fd7fcfbd31acb3b160abb5d6ae ]

When using the ibmveth driver in a KVM/QEMU based VM, it currently
always prints out a scary error message like this when it is started:

 ibmveth 71000003 (unregistered net_device): unable to change
 checksum offload settings. 1 rc=-2 ret_attr=71000003

This happens because the driver always tries to enable the checksum
offloading without checking for the availability of this feature first.
QEMU does not support checksum offloading for the spapr-vlan device,
thus we always get the error message here.
According to the LoPAPR specification, the "ibm,illan-options" property
of the corresponding device tree node should be checked first to see
whether the H_ILLAN_ATTRIUBTES hypercall and thus the checksum offloading
feature is available. Thus let's do this in the ibmveth driver, too, so
that the error message is really only limited to cases where something
goes wrong, and does not occur if the feature is just missing.

[ Upstream commit d0fa28f00052391b5df328f502fbbdd4444938b7 ]

I don't have any guests with PAGE_SIZE &gt; 64k but the
code seems to be clearly broken in that case
as PAGE_SIZE / MERGEABLE_BUFFER_ALIGN will need
more than 8 bit and so the code in mergeable_ctx_to_buf_address
does not give us the actual true size.

[ Upstream commit 738f7f647371ff4cfc9646c99dba5b58ad142db3 ]

The xgbe_init() routine returns a return code indicating success or
failure, but the return code is not checked. Add code to xgbe_init()
to issue a message when failures are seen and add code to check the
xgbe_init() return code.

<title>xen-netfront: Fix Rx stall during network stress and OOM</title>

[ Upstream commit 90c311b0eeead647b708a723dbdde1eda3dcad05 ]

During an OOM scenario, request slots could not be created as skb
allocation fails. So the netback cannot pass in packets and netfront
wrongly assumes that there is no more work to be done and it disables
polling. This causes Rx to stall.

The issue is with the retry logic which schedules the timer if the
created slots are less than NET_RX_SLOTS_MIN. The count of new request
slots to be pushed are calculated as a difference between new req_prod
and rsp_cons which could be more than the actual slots, if there are
unconsumed responses.

The fix is to calculate the count of newly created slots as the
difference between new req_prod and old req_prod.

[ Upstream commit 69fed99baac186013840ced3524562841296034f ]

A driver using dev_alloc_page() must not reuse a page that had to
use emergency memory reserve.

Otherwise all packets using this page will be immediately dropped,
unless for very specific sockets having SOCK_MEMALLOC bit set.

This issue might be hard to debug, because only a fraction of the RX
ring buffer would suffer from drops.

commit 3894396e64994f31c3ef5c7e6f63dded0593e567 upstream.

bgmac_open() calls phy_start() to initialize the PHY state machine,
which will set the interface's carrier state accordingly, no need to
force that as this could be conflicting with the PHY state determined by
PHYLIB.
