When a failure occurs in rtnl_configure_link(), the current code
calls unregister_netdevice() to roll back the earlier call to
register_netdevice(), and jumps to errout, which calls
vxlan_fdb_destroy().
However unregister_netdevice() calls transitively ndo_uninit, which is
vxlan_uninit(), and that already takes care of deleting the default FDB
entry by calling vxlan_fdb_delete_default(). Since the entry added
earlier in __vxlan_dev_create() is exactly the default entry, the
cleanup code in the errout block always leads to double free and thus a
panic.
Besides, since vxlan_fdb_delete_default() always destroys the FDB entry
with notification enabled, the deletion of the default entry is notified
even before the addition was notified.
Instead, move the unregister_netdevice() call after the manual destroy,
which solves both problems.

When rdst of an offloaded FDB entry is replaced, it certainly isn't
offloaded anymore. Drivers are notified about such replacements, and can
re-mark the entry as offloaded again if they so wish. However until a
driver does so explicitly, assume a replaced FDB entry is not offloaded.
Note that replaces coming via vxlan_fdb_external_learn_add() are always
immediately followed by an explicit offload marking.

mlx5-uplink-rep-2018-12-15
Or Gerlitz says:
This series is essentially a cleanup to align with the rest of the NIC
switchdev drivers and make us
more robust and clear/n: currently the PF netdev serves as the mlx5
e-switch uplink netdev
representor when going into switchdev mode and back as plain NIC
netdev when going out.
This causes some irregularities and misc troubles.
Move to use dedicated uplink rep, as we have for the VF vports.
The uplink rep netdev does has sysfs link and supports the sriov vf
mac ndo, these two are in
use by libvirt and other orchestrators, It also has richer ethtool
support to allow controlling the
port link & mtu along with supporting dcb and plugging into the mlx5
lag logic.

When reading buffer descriptors on RX or on TX completion, an
RX_USED/TX_USED bit is checked first to ensure that the descriptors have
been populated, i.e. the ownership has been transferred. However, there
are no memory barriers to ensure that the data protected by the
RX_USED/TX_USED bit is up-to-date with respect to that bit.
Specifically:
- TX timestamp descriptors may be loaded before ctrl is loaded for the
TX_USED check, which is racy as the descriptors may be updated between
the loads, causing old timestamp descriptor data to be used.
- RX ctrl may be loaded before addr is loaded for the RX_USED check,
which is racy as a new frame may be written between the loads, causing
old ctrl descriptor data to be used.
This issue exists for both macb_rx() and gem_rx() variants.
Fix the races by adding DMA read memory barriers on those paths and
reordering the reads in macb_rx().
I have not observed any actual problems in practice caused by these
being missing, though.

Bit RX_USED set to 0 in the address field allows the controller to write
data to the receive buffer descriptor.
The driver does not ensure the ctrl field is ready (cleared) when the
controller sees the RX_USED=0 written by the driver. The ctrl field might
only be cleared after the controller has already updated it according to
a newly received frame, causing the frame to be discarded in gem_rx() due
to unexpected ctrl field contents.
A message is logged when the above scenario occurs:
macb ff0b0000.ethernet eth0: not whole frame pointed by descriptor
Fix the issue by ensuring that when the controller sees RX_USED=0 the
ctrl field is already cleared.

64-bit DMA addresses are split in upper and lower halves that are
written in separate fields on GEM. For RX, bit 0 of the address is used
as the ownership bit (RX_USED). When the RX_USED bit is unset the
controller is allowed to write data to the buffer.
The driver does not guarantee that the controller already sees the upper
half when the RX_USED bit is cleared, possibly resulting in the
controller writing an incoming frame to an address with an incorrect
upper half and therefore possibly corrupting unrelated system memory.
Fix that by adding the necessary DMA memory barrier between the writes.
This corruption was observed on a ZynqMP based system.

On some platforms (currently detected only on SAMA5D4) TX might stuck
even the pachets are still present in DMA memories and TX start was
issued for them. This happens due to race condition between MACB driver
updating next TX buffer descriptor to be used and IP reading the same
descriptor. In such a case, the "TX USED BIT READ" interrupt is asserted.
GEM/MACB user guide specifies that if a "TX USED BIT READ" interrupt
is asserted TX must be restarted. Restart TX if used bit is read and
packets are present in software TX queue. Packets are removed from software
TX queue if TX was successful for them (see macb_tx_interrupt()).

On many devices the RTL8723BS device gets reset during suspend/resume,
causing it to lose its firmware and all state.
Testing has shown it drops back to communicating at 115200 bps and sends
sync-request packages, indicating it has been fully reset.
This commit fixes this by queueing a reprobe on resume.
This mirrors how USB RTL BT devices, which have the same problem, are
handled in the btusb driver, there we set the USB_QUIRK_RESET_RESUME for
all RTL devices, which also causes a reprobe on resume. The only difference
is that here we need to do the reprobe ourselves.
Since we are doing a full reprobe on resume now, we can also turn off the
device on suspend to save power while suspended.

The datasheets for BCM20702 and BCM43438 both have power up time
sequence graphs, however they are slightly different. Both chips
also have an internal power-on-reset, which holds the chip in reset
for a short time after the regulators are enabled.
For the BCM20702, the time period from when the regulators are enabled,
until the chip settles and comes out of sleep state, is 6564 ~ 8171 us.
For the BCM43438, the graph only shows the time period from when the
regulators are enabled until the chip responds by driving the host's
CTS line low, assuming the host has already driven its RTS line low.
This is shown to be 6.5 sleep cycles, with the sleep clock at 32.768
kHz. This is around 2 ms.
Wait a full 10 ms after the regulators are enabled to account for signal
rising times.

Originally the device tree binding only specified one clock reference,
with the name "extclk". The driver simply retrieves the clock without
bothering to specify a name.
Since we added a second clock to the binding, we need to fetch the
clocks by name now. First we try the new name "txco", then fall back
to the old name "extclk", and finally try retrieving a clock without
using any name, to cover any instances where a bad device tree or
firmware worked by accident.
In the last case, we should take care that we don't get the same
clock twice when we add support for the "lpo" clock.

The driver currently checks the clk pointer for an error condition, as
returned by clk_get, before every invocation of the clk consumer API.
This is redundant if the goal is simply to ignore the errors, thereby
making the clk optional. The clk consumer API already checks if the
pointer is NULL or not.
Simplify the code a bit by assigning NULL to the clk pointer if the
error condition is one we want to ignore, which is every error except
deferred probing.

Add helpers phy_is_started() and __phy_is_started() to avoid open-coded
checks whether PHY has been started. To make the check easier move
PHY_HALTED before PHY_UP in enum phy_state. Further improvements:
phy_start_aneg():
Return -EBUSY and print warning if function is called from a non-started
state (DOWN, READY, HALTED). Better check because function is exported
and drivers may use it incorrectly.
phy_interrupt():
Return IRQ_NONE also if state is DOWN or READY. We should never receive
an interrupt in one of these states, but better play safe.
phy_stop():
Just return and print a warning if PHY is in a non-started state.
This warning should help to identify drivers with unbalanced calls to
phy_start() / phy_stop().
phy_state_machine():
Schedule state machine run only if PHY is in a started state.
E.g. if state is READY we don't need the state machine, it will be
started by phy_start().
