For DEVICE_VERSION_V2, the hardware only supports max two layer
VLAN tags, including port based tag inserted by hardware, tag in
tx buffer descriptor(get from skb->tci) and tag in packet.
For transmit packet:
If port based VLAN disabled, and vf driver gets a VLAN tag from
skb, the VLAN tag must be filled to the Outer_VLAN_TAG field
(tag near to DMAC) of tx buffer descriptor, otherwise it may
be inserted after the tag in packet.
If port based VLAN enabled, and vf driver gets a VLAN tag from
skb, the VLAN tag must be filled to the VLAN_TAG field (tag
far to DMAC) of tx buffer descriptor, otherwise it may be
conflicted with port based VLAN, and raise a hardware error.
For receive packet:
The hardware will strip the VLAN tags and fill them in the rx
buffer descriptor, no matter port based VLAN enable or not.
Because port based VLAN tag is useless for stack, so vf driver
needs to discard the port based VLAN tag get from rx buffer
descriptor when port based VLAN enabled.
So vf must know about the port based VLAN state.
For DEVICE_VERSION_V3, the hardware provides some new
configuration to improve it.
For transmit packet:
When enable tag shift mode, hardware will handle the VLAN tag
in outer_VLAN_TAG field as VLAN_TAG, so it won't conflict with
port based VLAN. And hardware also make sure the tag before
the tag in packet. So vf driver doesn't need to specify the tag
position according to the port based VLAN state anymore.
For receive packet:
When enable discard mode, hardware will strip and discard the
port based VLAN tag, so vf driver doesn't need to identify it
from rx buffer descriptor.
So modify the port based VLAN configuration, simplify the process
for vf handling the VLAN tag.

Currently, the tx unicast promisc is always enabled when promisc
mode on. If tx unicast promisc on, a function will receive all
unicast packet from other functions belong to the same port.
Add a ethtool private flag to control whether enable tx
unicast promisc. Then the function is able to filter the
unknown unicast packets from other function.

For DEVICE_VERSION_V2, the hardware supports enable tx and rx
promiscuous separately. But tx or rx promiscuous is active for
unicast, multicast and broadcast promiscuous simultaneously.
To support traffics between functions belong to the same port,
we always enable tx promiscuous for broadcast promiscuous, so
tx promiscuous for unicast and multicast promiscuous is also
enabled.
For DEVICE_VERSION_V3, the hardware decouples the above
relationship. Tx unicast promiscuous, rx unicast promiscuous,
tx multicast promiscuous, rx multicast promiscuous, tx broadcast
promiscuous and rx broadcast promiscuous can be enabled separately.
So add support for the new promiscuous command.

Transmitted packet timestamping accuracy can be improved when using
timestamp from the port, instead of packet CQE creation timestamp, as
it better reflects the actual time of a packet's transmit.
TX port timestamping is supported starting from ConnectX6-DX hardware.
Although at the original completion, only CQE timestamp can be attached,
we are able to get TX port timestamping via an additional completion over
a special CQ associated with the SQ (in addition to the regular CQ).
Driver to ignore the original packet completion timestamp, and report
back the timestamp of the special CQ completion. If the absolute timestamp
diff between the two completions is greater than 1 / 128 second, ignore
the TX port timestamp as it has a jitter which is too big.
No skb will be generate out of the extra completion.
Allocate additional CQ per ptpsq, to receive the TX port timestamp.
Driver to hold an skb FIFO in order to map between transmitted skb to
the two expected completions. When using ptpsq, hold double refcount on
the skb, to gaurantee it will not get released before both completions
arrive.
Expose dedicated counters of the ptp additional CQ and connect it to the
TX health reporter.
This patch improves TX Hardware timestamping offset to be less than 40ns
at a 100Gbps line rate, compared to 600ns before.
With that, making our HW compliant with G.8273.2 class C, and allow Linux
systems to be deployed in the 5G telco edge, where this standard is a
must.

Add TX PTP port object support for better TX timestamping accuracy.
Currently, driver supports CQE based TX port timestamp. Device
also offers TX port timestamp, which has less jitter and better
reflects the actual time of a packet's transmit.

SQs that will support TX port timestamp for their transmitted packets.
Driver to identify PTP TX skbs and steer them to these dedicated SQs
as part of the select queue ndo.
Driver to hold ptpsq per TC and report them at
netif_set_real_num_tx_queues().

Don't try to adjust XFRM support flags if the bond device isn't yet
registered. Bad things can currently happen when netdev_change_features()
is called without having wanted_features fully filled in yet. This code
runs both on post-module-load mode changes, as well as at module init
time, and when run at module init time, it is before register_netdevice()
has been called and filled in wanted_features. The empty wanted_features
led to features also getting emptied out, which was definitely not the
intended behavior, so prevent that from happening.
Originally, I'd hoped to stop adjusting wanted_features at all in the
bonding driver, as it's documented as being something only the network
core should touch, but we actually do need to do this to properly update
both the features and wanted_features fields when changing the bond type,
or we get to a situation where ethtool sees:
esp-hw-offload: off [requested on]
I do think we should be using netdev_update_features instead of
netdev_change_features here though, so we only send notifiers when the
features actually changed.

When the ETR is used in perf mode with a larger buffer (configured
via sysfs or the default size of 1M) than the perf aux buffer size,
we end up inserting the barrier packet at the wrong offset, while
moving the offset forward. i.e, instead of the "new moved offset",
we insert it at the current hardware buffer offset. These packets
will not be visible as they are never copied and could lead to
corruption in the trace decoding side, as the decoder is not aware
that it needs to reset the decoding.

flag isn't set just because of a CPU misconfiguration or mismatch.
Historically it was for SMP kernel oops on an officially SMP incapable
processor but now it also covers CPUs whose MSRs have been incorrectly

Commit
26bfa5f89486 ("x86, amd: Cleanup init_amd")
moved the code that remaps the TSEG region using 4k pages from
init_amd() to bsp_init_amd().
However, bsp_init_amd() is executed well before the direct mapping is
actually created:
setup_arch()
-> early_cpu_init()
-> early_identify_cpu()
-> this_cpu->c_bsp_init()
-> bsp_init_amd()
...
-> init_mem_mapping()
So the change effectively disabled the 4k remapping, because
pfn_range_is_mapped() is always false at this point.
It has been over six years since the commit, and no-one seems to have
noticed this, so just remove the code. The original code was also
incomplete, since it doesn't check how large the TSEG address range
actually is, so it might remap only part of it in any case.
Hygon has copied the incorrect version, so the code has never run on it
since the cpu support was added two years ago. Remove it from there as
well.
Committer notes:
This workaround is incomplete anyway:
1. The code must check MSRC001_0113.TValid (SMM TSeg Mask MSR) first, to
check whether the TSeg address range is enabled.
2. The code must check whether the range is not 2M aligned - if it is,
there's nothing to work around.
3. In all the BIOSes tested, the TSeg range is in a e820 reserved area
and those are not mapped anymore, after
66520ebc2df3 ("x86, mm: Only direct map addresses that are marked as E820_RAM")
which means, there's nothing to be worked around either.
So let's rip it out.

Add a mostly finished document describing how to report issues with the
Linux kernel to its developers. It is designed to be a lot more straight
forward and easier to follow than the current text about this
(Documentation/admin-guide/reporting-bugs.rst); at the same time the new
text should be more helpful for people unfamiliar with the topic, as it
provides a lot more details, too.
The main work on the text is done, but some polishing is still needed.
The text also needs to be reviewed by more people and a few issues still
might need some discussion. To make these tasks easier, it was decided
([1]) to add this document to the kernel sources in parallel to the
existing text; the latter will be removed once this text is considered
good enough(tm).
This document is quite long and provides a lot of details, but was
carefully crafted to make sure it's can also serve people that are in a
hurry. That's mainly achieved by having a TDLR and a step-by-step guide,
which should be good enough for quite a lot of people. Everybody that
wants or need more explanations can find them in a reference section,
which describes all the needed steps in detail.
Thanks to this structure the text can work for kernel developers that
just need to look something up, experienced FLOSS contributors that are
unfamiliar with the kernel's bug reporting workflow, and users reporting
something upstream for the first time. The text is thus a bit like the
kernel itself, which works well for embedded machines, a typical desktop
PC, cloud servers, and HPC.
The document was written in the hope it will improve the quality of the
bug reports, especially those that come from people unfamiliar with how
Linux kernel development works. Sadly quite a few reports from this
group are currently of poor quality and/or get submitted to the wrong
place. Part of the problem is the old reporting-bugs document, as it
makes its essence hard to grasp; it's and also inaccurate and slightly
outdated in a few spots. Due to this quite a few valid reports are
ignored in the end, which is annoying for those that compiled them and
bad for the kernel's quality.
The document near the top points out that it's still unfinished, but
nevertheless ready for consumption. Those few areas in the text that
might need some further discussion contain a note pointing this out.
Besides lack of review from core developers there is only one major
issue left: the section 'Decode failure message' is known to be
outdated: it's waiting for someone familiar with the topic to write
something up or give at least provide some hints and pointers what to
write there.
The new document is dual-licensed under GPL-2.0+ or CC-BY-4.0. The
latter is way more liberal and makes it attractive to use this text as a
base when writing about this topic on websites or in books. This
hopefully increases the chances that such texts are accurate and stick
to official way of doing things.

Add the full text of the CC-BY-4.0 license to the kernel tree as well as
the required tags for reference and tooling.
The license text was copied directly from the following url, but for
clarification a 'Creative Commons' was added before 'Attribution 4.0
International' in the first line:
https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/legalcode.txt
CC-BY-4.0 is GPLv2 compatible, but when for example used for the
kernel's documentation it can easily happen that sphinx during
processing combines it with text or code from files using a more
restrictive license[1]. This bears pitfalls, hence point that risk out
and suggest to only use this license in combination with the GPLv2.

This cleans up a few titles with extra colons, and removes the
reference to kernel 2.2. The docs don't yet cover *all* of 5.10 or

and have been checked against current kernels.

sof-audio-acpi" from Hans de Goede <hdegoede@redhat.com>:
Hi All,
Here are 2 simple fixes which are necessary to make the
cht_bsw_nau8824 machine driver work together with the
sof-audio-acpi driver.
Note that atm the sof topology files are missing a .tplg
file for this setup. Simply copying over the standard
sof-byte-codec.tplg file does the trick, but then some
mixer setting changes are necessary to fix the right
speaker/headphones channel not working; and those mixer
settings break the right channel when used with the
sst-acpi driver.
I've been trying to fix this at the tplg level so that
we do not need to change the mixer settings, but no luck
sofar. I'll post a RFC with the topology changes which
I have and we can discuss this further there.
These 2 simple fixes are necessary to make the sof-audio-acpi
driver work regardless of the topology issue.
Regards,
Hans

cz_da7219_init() does not check the return values of clk_get(),
while da7219_clk_enable() calls clk_set_rate() to dereference
the pointers.
Add checks to fix the problems.
Also, change clk_get() to devm_clk_get() to avoid data leak after
failures.

In case of having so many PID results that they don't fit into a singe page
(4096) bytes, bpftool will erroneously conclude that it got corrupted data due
to 4096 not being a multiple of struct pid_iter_entry, so the last entry will
be partially truncated. Fix this by sizing the buffer to fit exactly N entries
with no truncation in the middle of record.

This patch fixes the slice count computation algorithm
for calculating the slice count based on Peak pixel rate
and the max slice width allowed on the DSC engines.
We need to ensure slice count > min slice count req
as per DP spec based on peak pixel rate and that it is
greater than min slice count based on the max slice width
advertised by DPCD. So use max of these two.
In the prev patch we were using min of these 2 causing it
to violate the max slice width limitation causing a blank
screen on 8K@60.

We currently presume that the engine reset is successful, cancelling the
expired preemption timer in the process. However, engine resets can
fail, leaving the timeout still pending and we will then respond to the
timeout again next time the tasklet fires. What we want is for the
failed engine reset to be promoted to a full device reset, which is
kicked by the heartbeat once the engine stops processing events.

Before reseting the engine, we suspend the execution of the guilty
request, so that we can continue execution with a new context while we
slowly compress the captured error state for the guilty context. However,
if the reset fails, we will promptly attempt to reset the same request
again, and discover the ongoing capture. Ignore the second attempt to
suspend and capture the same request.
