sgdma_descrip is a function name as well as the name of a struct. In
sgdma_initialize(), we should initialize the descriptor length field
with the actual length of a descriptor not with the size of the
function. In order to prevent such things from happening in the future,
rename the function to sgdma_setup_descrip().

'Path.Max.Retrans'.
Don't transition to the PF state on every strike after 'Path.Max.Retrans'.
Per draft-ietf-tsvwg-sctp-failover-03 Section 5.1.6:
Additional (PMR - PFMR) consecutive timeouts on a PF destination
confirm the path failure, upon which the destination transitions to the
Inactive state. As described in [RFC4960], the sender (i) SHOULD notify
ULP about this state transition, and (ii) transmit heartbeats to the
Inactive destination at a lower frequency as described in Section 8.3 of
[RFC4960].
This also prevents sending SCTP_ADDR_UNREACHABLE to the user as the state
bounces between SCTP_INACTIVE and SCTP_PF for each subsequent strike.

With commit cc9fa74e2a ("slip/slcan: added locking in wakeup function") a
formerly missing locking was added to slip.c and slcan.c by Andre Naujoks.
Alexander Stein contributed the fix 367525c8c2 ("can: slcan: Fix spinlock
variant") as the kernel lock debugging advised to use spin_lock_bh() instead
of just using spin_lock().
This fix has to be applied to the same code section in slip.c for the same
reason too.

commit 813b3b5db83 (ipv4: Use caller's on-stack flowi as-is
in output route lookups.) introduces another regression which
is very similar to the problem of commit e6b45241c (ipv4: reset
flowi parameters on route connect) wants to fix:
Before we call ip_route_output_key() in sctp_v4_get_dst() to
get a dst that matches a bind address as the source address,
we have already called this function previously and the flowi
parameters have been initialized including flowi4_oif, so when
we call this function again, the process in __ip_route_output_key()
will be different because of the setting of flowi4_oif, and we'll
get a networking device which corresponds to the inputted flowi4_oif
as the output device, this is wrong because we'll never hit this
place if the previously returned source address of dst match one
of the bound addresses.
To reproduce this problem, a vlan setting is enough:
# ifconfig eth0 up
# route del default
# vconfig add eth0 2
# vconfig add eth0 3
# ifconfig eth0.2 10.0.1.14 netmask 255.255.255.0
# route add default gw 10.0.1.254 dev eth0.2
# ifconfig eth0.3 10.0.0.14 netmask 255.255.255.0
# ip rule add from 10.0.0.14 table 4
# ip route add table 4 default via 10.0.0.254 src 10.0.0.14 dev eth0.3
# sctp_darn -H 10.0.0.14 -P 36422 -h 10.1.4.134 -p 36422 -s -I
You'll detect that all the flow are routed to eth0.2(10.0.1.254).

This patch fixes the PTP Tx timestamp interrupt handler. The original
code misinterpreted the interrupt handler design. We were clearing the
ena_mask bit for the Timesync interrupts. This is done to indicate that
the interrupt will be handled in a scheduled work item (instead of
immediately) and that work item is responsible for re-enabling the
interrupts. However, the Tx timestamp was being handled immediately and
nothing was ever re-enabling it. This resulted in a single interrupt
working for the life of the driver.
This patch fixes the issue by instead clearing the bit from icr0 which
is used to indicate that the interrupt was immediately handled and can
be re-enabled right away. This patch also clears up a related issue due
to writing the PRTTSYN_STAT_0 register, which was unintentionally
clearing the cause bits for Timesync interrupts.

Thomas Gleixner contributes 21 patches for the c_can driver, which address
several shortcomings in the driver like hardware initialisation, concurrency,
message ordering and poor performance. Two patches Oliver Hartkopp, one adds a
missing lock to the sja1000_isa driver, the other one fixes the return value in
the generic bit time configuration function. And finally a patch by Alexander
Stein, that fixes the slcan driver to use the correct spinlock variant.
To make it 26 patches, Wolfgang Grandegger patch for the c_can_pci
driver, which enables the bus master only for MSI and a patch by
Wolfram Sang, which converts the 'instance' in the c_can driver to the
proper type.

This series of patches addresses a handful of issues found in testing
and reported by users of the Altera Triple Speed Ethernet soft IP.
The patches address the following issues (in summary)
1) The SGDMA soft IP was found to incorrectly process receive packets
when the target physical address of the receive buffer was on
a boundary that's not 32-bit aligned. One of the patches addresses
this issue.
2) The pause quanta was not being set by the driver, one patch of this
series sets the pause quanta to the IEEE defined default value
since the hardware reset value is 0.
3) An issue in a error recovery path of the probe routine caused a
kernel panic in the event a phy was probed and could not be found.
A patch addresses this issue.
4) A change was made to the driver name for Ethtool support, and
comments added to support an addition to Ethtool to support
the Altera Triple Speed Ethernet controller.

This patch works around a recently discovered unaligned receive dma problem
with the Altera SGMDA. The Altera SGDMA component cannot be configured to
DMA data to unaligned addresses for receive packet operations from the
Triple Speed Ethernet component because of a potential data transfer
corruption that can occur. This patch addresses this issue by
utilizing the shift 16 bits feature of the Altera Triple Speed Ethernet
component and modifying the receive buffer physical addresses accordingly
such that the target receive DMA address is always aligned on a 32-bit
boundary.

Starting with commit 2dc33bbc "bnx2x: Remove the sriov VFOP mechanism",
the bnx2x started enforcing vlan credits for all vlan configurations.
This exposed 2 issues:
- Vlan credits are not returned once a VF is removed; this causes a leak
of credits, and eventually will lead to VFs with no vlan credits.
- A vlan credit must be set aside for the Hypervisor to use, and should
not be visible to the VF.
Although linux VFs at the moment do not support vlan configuration [from the
VF side] which causes them to be resilient to this sort of issue, Windows VF
over linux hypervisors might fail to load as the vlan credits become depleted.

When the ipv6 fib changes during a table dump, the walk is
restarted and the number of nodes dumped are skipped. But the existing
code doesn't advance to the next node after a node is skipped. This can
cause the dump to loop or produce lots of duplicates when the fib
is modified during the dump.
This change advances the walk to the next node if the current node is
skipped after a restart.

When accessing the SJA1000 controller registers in the indirect access mode,
writing the register number and reading/writing the data has to be an atomic
attempt.
As the sja1000_isa driver is an old style driver with a fixed number of
instances the locking variable depends on the same index like all the other
configuration elements given on the module command line.
As a positive side effect dev->dev_id is populated by the instance index,

That requires to write the frame into the interface first, then handle
the echo skb and store the dlc before committing the TX request to the

We use an atomic to handle the active buffers instead of reading the

Alexander reported that the new optimized handling of the RX fifo
causes random packet loss on Intel PCH C_CAN hardware.
After a few fruitless debugging sessions I got hold of a PCH (eg20t)
afflicted system. That machine does not have the CAN interface wired
up, but it was possible to reproduce the issue with the HW loopback
mode.
As Alexander observed correctly, clearing the NewDat flag along with
reading out the message buffer causes that issue on C_CAN, while D_CAN
handles that correctly.
Instead of restoring the original message buffer handling horror the
following workaround solves the issue:
transfer buffer to IF without clearing the NewDat
handle the message
clear NewDat bit
That's similar to the original code but conditional for C_CAN.
I really wonder why all user manuals (C_CAN, Intel PCH and some more)
recommend to clear the NewDat bit right away. The knows it all Oracle
operated by Gurgle does not unearth any useful information either. I
simply cannot believe that we are the first to uncover that HW issue.

The RX buffer split causes packet loss in the hardware:
What happens is:
RX Packet 1 --> message buffer 1 (newdat bit is not cleared)
RX Packet 2 --> message buffer 2 (newdat bit is not cleared)
RX Packet 3 --> message buffer 3 (newdat bit is not cleared)
RX Packet 4 --> message buffer 4 (newdat bit is not cleared)
RX Packet 5 --> message buffer 5 (newdat bit is not cleared)
RX Packet 6 --> message buffer 6 (newdat bit is not cleared)
RX Packet 7 --> message buffer 7 (newdat bit is not cleared)
RX Packet 8 --> message buffer 8 (newdat bit is not cleared)
Clear newdat bit in message buffer 1
Clear newdat bit in message buffer 2
Clear newdat bit in message buffer 3
Clear newdat bit in message buffer 4
Clear newdat bit in message buffer 5
Clear newdat bit in message buffer 6
Clear newdat bit in message buffer 7
Clear newdat bit in message buffer 8
Now if during that clearing of newdat bits, a new message comes in,
the HW gets confused and drops it.
It does not matter how many of them you clear. I put a delay between
clear of buffer 1 and buffer 2 which was long enough that the message
should have been queued either in buffer 1 or buffer 9. But it did not
show up anywhere. The next message ended up in buffer 1. So the
hardware lost a packet of course without telling it via one of the
error handlers.
That does not happen on all clear newdat bit events. I see one of 10k
packets dropped in the scenario which allows us to reproduce. But the
trace looks always the same.
Not splitting the RX Buffer avoids the packet loss but can cause
reordering. It's hard to trigger, but it CAN happen.
With that mode we use the HW as it was probably designed for. We read
from the buffer 1 upwards and clear the buffer as we get the
message. That's how all microcontrollers use it. So I assume that the
way we handle the buffers was never really tested. According to the
public documentation it should just work :)
Let the user decide which evil is the lesser one.
[ Oliver Hartkopp: Provided a sane config option and help text and
made me switch to favour potential and unlikely reordering over
packet loss ]

The driver handles pointlessly TWO interrupts per packet. The reason
is that it enables the status interrupt which fires for each rx and tx
packet and it enables the per message object interrupts as well.
The status interrupt merily acks or in case of D_CAN ignores the TX/RX
state and then the message object interrupt fires.
The message objects interrupts are only useful if all message objects
have hardware filters activated.
But we don't have that and its not simple to implement in that driver
without rewriting it completely.
So we can ditch the message object interrupts and handle the RX/TX
right away from the status interrupt. Instead of TWO we handle ONE.
Note: We must keep the TXIE/RXIE bits in the message buffers because
the status interrupt alone is not reliable enough in corner cases.
If we ever have the need for HW filtering, then this code needs a
complete overhaul and we can think about it then. For now we prefer a
lower interrupt load.

On D_CAN the RXOK, TXOK and LEC bits are cleared/set on read of the
status register. No need to update them.
