syzbot reported a general protection fault caused by a null pointer
dereference in coalesce_fill_reply(). The issue occurs when req_base->dev
is null, leading to an invalid memory access.
This panic occurs if dumping coalesce when no device name is specified.
Fixes: f750dfe825b9 ("ethtool: provide customized dim profile management")

The NetDIM library, currently leveraged by an array of NICs, delivers
excellent acceleration benefits. Nevertheless, NICs vary significantly
in their dim profile list prerequisites.
Specifically, virtio-net backends may present diverse sw or hw device
implementation, making a one-size-fits-all parameter list impractical.
On Alibaba Cloud, the virtio DPU's performance under the default DIM
profile falls short of expectations, partly due to a mismatch in
parameter configuration.
I also noticed that ice/idpf/ena and other NICs have customized
profilelist or placed some restrictions on dim capabilities.
Motivated by this, I tried adding new params for "ethtool -C" that provides
a per-device control to modify and access a device's interrupt parameters.
Usage
========
The target NIC is named ethx.
Assume that ethx only declares support for rx profile setting
(with DIM_PROFILE_RX flag set in profile_flags) and supports modification
of usec and pkt fields.
1. Query the currently customized list of the device
$ ethtool -c ethx
...
rx-profile:
{.usec = 1, .pkts = 256, .comps = n/a,},
{.usec = 8, .pkts = 256, .comps = n/a,},
{.usec = 64, .pkts = 256, .comps = n/a,},
{.usec = 128, .pkts = 256, .comps = n/a,},
{.usec = 256, .pkts = 256, .comps = n/a,}
tx-profile: n/a
2. Tune
$ ethtool -C ethx rx-profile 1,1,n_2,n,n_3,3,n_4,4,n_n,5,n
"n" means do not modify this field.
$ ethtool -c ethx
...
rx-profile:
{.usec = 1, .pkts = 1, .comps = n/a,},
{.usec = 2, .pkts = 256, .comps = n/a,},
{.usec = 3, .pkts = 3, .comps = n/a,},
{.usec = 4, .pkts = 4, .comps = n/a,},
{.usec = 256, .pkts = 5, .comps = n/a,}
tx-profile: n/a
3. Hint
If the device does not support some type of customized dim profiles,
the corresponding "n/a" will display.
If the "n/a" field is being modified, -EOPNOTSUPP will be reported.

We had a number of bugs in the past because developers forgot
to fully test dumps, which pass NULL as info to .prepare_data.
.prepare_data implementations would try to access info->extack
leading to a null-deref.
Now that dumps and notifications can access struct genl_info
we can pass it in, and remove the info null checks.

SET_COALESCE may change operation mode and parameters in one call.
Changing operation mode may cause the driver to reset the parameter
values to what is a reasonable default for new operation mode.
Since driver does not know which parameters come from user and which
are echoed back from ->get, driver may ignore the parameters when
switching operation modes.
This used to be inevitable for ioctl() but in netlink we know which
parameters are actually specified by the user.
We could inform which parameters were set by the user but this would
lead to a lot of code duplication in the drivers. Instead try to call
the drivers twice if both mode and params are changed. The set method
already checks if any params need updating so in case the driver did
the right thing the first time around - there will be no second call
to it's ->set method (only an extra call to ->get()).
For mlx5 for example before this patch we'd see:
# ethtool -C eth0 adaptive-rx on adaptive-tx on
# ethtool -C eth0 adaptive-rx off adaptive-tx off \
tx-usecs 123 rx-usecs 123
Adaptive RX: off TX: off
rx-usecs: 3
rx-frames: 32
tx-usecs: 16
tx-frames: 32
[...]
After the change:
# ethtool -C eth0 adaptive-rx on adaptive-tx on
# ethtool -C eth0 adaptive-rx off adaptive-tx off \
tx-usecs 123 rx-usecs 123
Adaptive RX: off TX: off
rx-usecs: 123
rx-frames: 32
tx-usecs: 123
tx-frames: 32
[...]
This only works for netlink, so it's a small discrepancy between
netlink and ioctl(). Since we anticipate most users to move to
netlink I believe it's worth making their lives easier.

It seems I missed that most ethnl_parse_header_dev_get() callers
declare an on-stack struct ethnl_req_info, and that they simply call
dev_put(req_info.dev) when about to return.
Add ethnl_parse_header_dev_put() helper to properly untrack
reference taken by ethnl_parse_header_dev_get().

In order to support more coalesce parameters through netlink,
add two new parameter kernel_coal and extack for .set_coalesce
and .get_coalesce, then some extra info can return to user with

Currently, there are many drivers who support CQE mode configuration,
some configure it as a fixed when initialized, some provide an
interface to change it by ethtool private flags. In order to make it
more generic, add two new 'ETHTOOL_A_COALESCE_USE_CQE_TX' and
'ETHTOOL_A_COALESCE_USE_CQE_RX' coalesce attributes, then these
parameters can be accessed by ethtool netlink coalesce uAPI.
Also add an new structure kernel_ethtool_coalesce, then the
new parameter can be added into this struct.

To get the most out of parsing by the core, and to allow dumping
full policies we need to specify which policy applies to nested
attrs. For headers it's ethnl_header_policy.
$ sed -i 's@\(ETHTOOL_A_.*HEADER\].*=\) { .type = NLA_NESTED },@\1\n\t\tNLA_POLICY_NESTED(ethnl_header_policy),@' net/ethtool/*

Since ethtool uses strict attribute validation there's no need
to initialize all attributes in policy tables. 0 is NLA_UNSPEC
which is going to be rejected. Remove the NLA_REJECTs.
Similarly attributes above maxattrs are rejected, so there's
no need to always size the policy tables to ETHTOOL_A_..._MAX.
v2: - new patch

Wire up policies for get commands in struct nla_policy of the ethtool
family. Make use of genetlink code attr validation and parsing, as well
as allow dumping policies to user space.
For every ETHTOOL_MSG_*_GET:
- add 'ethnl_' prefix to policy name
- add extern declaration in net/ethtool/netlink.h
- wire up the policy & attr in ethtool_genl_ops[].
- remove .request_policy and .max_attr from ethnl_request_ops.
Obviously core only records the first "layer" of parsed attrs
so we still need to parse the sub-attrs of the nested header
attribute.
v2:
- merge of patches 1 and 2 from v1
- remove stray empty lines in ops
- also remove .max_attr

Implement COALESCE_SET netlink request to set coalescing parameters of
a network device. These are traditionally set with ETHTOOL_SCOALESCE ioctl
request. This commit adds only support for device coalescing parameters,
not per queue coalescing parameters.
Like the ioctl implementation, the generic ethtool code checks if only
supported parameters are modified; if not, first offending attribute is
reported using extack.
