[ Upstream commit 217e6fa24ce28ec87fca8da93c9016cb78028612 ]

The stack must not pass packets to device drivers that are shorter
than the minimum link layer header length.

Previously, packet sockets would drop packets smaller than or equal
to dev-&gt;hard_header_len, but this has false positives. Zero length
payload is used over Ethernet. Other link layer protocols support
variable length headers. Support for validation of these protocols
removed the min length check for all protocols.

Introduce an explicit dev-&gt;min_header_len parameter and drop all
packets below this value. Initially, set it to non-zero only for
Ethernet and loopback. Other protocols can follow in a patch to
net-next.

Fixes: 9ed988cd5915 ("packet: validate variable length ll headers")

[ Upstream commit bd4ce941c8d5b862b2f83364be5dbe8fc8ab48f8 ]

mlx4 may schedule napi from a workqueue. Afterwards, softirqs are not run
in a deterministic time frame and the following message may be logged:
NOHZ: local_softirq_pending 08

The problem is the same as what was described in commit ec13ee80145c
("virtio_net: invoke softirqs after __napi_schedule") and this patch
applies the same fix to mlx4.

[ Upstream commit 837585a5375c38d40361cfe64e6fd11e1addb936 ]

When IFF_VNET_HDR is enabled, a virtio_net header must precede data.
Data length is verified to be greater than or equal to expected header
length tun-&gt;vnet_hdr_sz before copying.

Macvtap functions read the value once, but unless READ_ONCE is used,
the compiler may ignore this and read multiple times. Enforce a single
read and locally cached value to avoid updates between test and use.

commit 5351fbb1bf1413f6024892093528280769ca852f upstream.

page_flip_completed() dereferences 'work' variable after executing
queue_work(). This is not safe as the 'work' item might be already freed
by queued work:

commit 74470954857c264168d2b5a113904cf0cfd27d18 upstream.

rx_refill_timer should be deleted as soon as we disconnect from the
backend since otherwise it is possible for the timer to go off before
we get to xennet_destroy_queues(). If this happens we may dereference
queue-&gt;rx.sring which is set to NULL in xennet_disconnect_backend().

caused a problem on older controllers which do not support MSI-x (namely
ASR3405,ASR3805). This patch conditionalizes the previous patch to
controllers which support MSI-x

commit 2dfa6688aafdc3f74efeb1cf05fb871465d67f79 upstream.

Dan Carpenter kindly reported:
&lt;quote&gt;
The patch d27a7cb91960: "zfcp: trace on request for open and close of
WKA port" from Aug 10, 2016, leads to the following static checker
warning:

	drivers/s390/scsi/zfcp_fsf.c:1615 zfcp_fsf_open_wka_port()
	warn: 'req' was already freed.

drivers/s390/scsi/zfcp_fsf.c
  1609          zfcp_fsf_start_timer(req, ZFCP_FSF_REQUEST_TIMEOUT);
  1610          retval = zfcp_fsf_req_send(req);
  1611          if (retval)
  1612                  zfcp_fsf_req_free(req);
                                          ^^^
Freed.

  1613  out:
  1614          spin_unlock_irq(&amp;qdio-&gt;req_q_lock);
  1615          if (req &amp;&amp; !IS_ERR(req))
  1616                  zfcp_dbf_rec_run_wka("fsowp_1", wka_port, req-&gt;req_id);
                                                                  ^^^^^^^^^^^
Use after free.

  1617          return retval;
  1618  }

Same thing for zfcp_fsf_close_wka_port() as well.
&lt;/quote&gt;

Rather than relying on req being NULL (or ERR_PTR) for all cases where
we don't want to trace or should not trace,
simply check retval which is unconditionally initialized with -EIO != 0
and it can only become 0 on successful retval = zfcp_fsf_req_send(req).
With that we can also remove the then again unnecessary unconditional
initialization of req which was introduced with that earlier commit.

Commit a50af86dd49e "netvsc: reduce maximum GSO size" was wrongly
backported to 4.4-stable.  The maximum size needs to be set before the
net device is registered, in netvsc_probe().
