[ Upstream commit 7c76c813cfc42a7376378a0c4b7250db2eebab81 ]

lookup_or_create_module_kobject() is marked as static and __init,
to make it global drop static keyword.
Since this function can be called from non-init code, use __modinit
instead of __init, __modinit marker will make it __init if
CONFIG_MODULES is not defined.

[ Upstream commit 56f1f30e6795b890463d9b20b11e576adf5a2f77 ]

The conversion function from MIDI 1.0 to UMP packet contains an
internal buffer to keep the incoming MIDI bytes, and its size is 4, as
it was supposed to be the max size for a MIDI1 UMP packet data.
However, the implementation overlooked that SysEx is handled in a
different format, and it can be up to 6 bytes, as found in
do_convert_to_ump().  It leads eventually to a buffer overflow, and
may corrupt the memory when a longer SysEx message is received.

The fix is simply to extend the buffer size to 6 to fit with the SysEx
UMP message.

<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit 36dd1141be70b5966906919714dc504a24c65ddf ]

I was revisiting the topic of 802.1ad treatment in the Ocelot switch [0]
and realized that not only is its basic VLAN classification pipeline
improper for offloading vlan_protocol 802.1ad bridges, but also improper
for offloading regular 802.1Q bridges already.

Namely, 802.1ad-tagged traffic should be treated as VLAN-untagged by
bridged ports, but this switch treats it as if it was 802.1Q-tagged with
the same VID as in the 802.1ad header. This is markedly different to
what the Linux bridge expects; see the "other_tpid()" function in
tools/testing/selftests/net/forwarding/bridge_vlan_aware.sh.

An idea came to me that the VCAP IS1 TCAM is more powerful than I'm
giving it credit for, and that it actually overwrites the classified VID
before the VLAN Table lookup takes place. In other words, it can be
used even to save a packet from being dropped on ingress due to VLAN
membership.

Add a sophisticated TCAM rule hardcoded into the driver to force the
switch to behave like a Linux bridge with vlan_filtering 1 vlan_protocol
802.1Q.

Regarding the lifetime of the filter: eventually the bridge will
disappear, and vlan_filtering on the port will be restored to 0 for
standalone mode. Then the filter will be deleted.

<title>net: Rename mono_delivery_time to tstamp_type for scalabilty</title>

[ Upstream commit 4d25ca2d6801cfcf26f7f39c561611ba5be99bf8 ]

mono_delivery_time was added to check if skb-&gt;tstamp has delivery
time in mono clock base (i.e. EDT) otherwise skb-&gt;tstamp has
timestamp in ingress and delivery_time at egress.

Renaming the bitfield from mono_delivery_time to tstamp_type is for
extensibilty for other timestamps such as userspace timestamp
(i.e. SO_TXTIME) set via sock opts.

As we are renaming the mono_delivery_time to tstamp_type, it makes
sense to start assigning tstamp_type based on enum defined
in this commit.

Earlier we used bool arg flag to check if the tstamp is mono in
function skb_set_delivery_time, Now the signature of the functions
accepts tstamp_type to distinguish between mono and real time.

Also skb_set_delivery_type_by_clockid is a new function which accepts
clockid to determine the tstamp_type.

In future tstamp_type:1 can be extended to support userspace timestamp
by increasing the bitfield.

<id>urn:sha1:7197fc4acdf238ec8ad06de5a8235df0c1f9c7d7</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 81f6d0530ba031b5f038a091619bf2ff29568852 upstream.

When processing calls to global sub-programs, verifier decides whether
to invalidate all packet pointers in current state depending on the
changes_pkt_data property of the global sub-program.

Because of this, an extension program replacing a global sub-program
must be compatible with changes_pkt_data property of the sub-program
being replaced.

This commit:
- adds changes_pkt_data flag to struct bpf_prog_aux:
  - this flag is set in check_cfg() for main sub-program;
  - in jit_subprogs() for other sub-programs;
- modifies bpf_check_attach_btf_id() to check changes_pkt_data flag;
- moves call to check_attach_btf_id() after the call to check_cfg(),
  because it needs changes_pkt_data flag to be set:

    bpf_check:
      ...                             ...
    - check_attach_btf_id             resolve_pseudo_ldimm64
      resolve_pseudo_ldimm64   --&gt;    bpf_prog_is_offloaded
      bpf_prog_is_offloaded           check_cfg
      check_cfg                     + check_attach_btf_id
      ...                             ...

The following fields are set by check_attach_btf_id():
- env-&gt;ops
- prog-&gt;aux-&gt;attach_btf_trace
- prog-&gt;aux-&gt;attach_func_name
- prog-&gt;aux-&gt;attach_func_proto
- prog-&gt;aux-&gt;dst_trampoline
- prog-&gt;aux-&gt;mod
- prog-&gt;aux-&gt;saved_dst_attach_type
- prog-&gt;aux-&gt;saved_dst_prog_type
- prog-&gt;expected_attach_type

Neither of these fields are used by resolve_pseudo_ldimm64() or
bpf_prog_offload_verifier_prep() (for netronome and netdevsim
drivers), so the reordering is safe.

<content type='text'>
commit 51081a3f25c742da5a659d7fc6fd77ebfdd555be upstream.

When processing calls to certain helpers, verifier invalidates all
packet pointers in a current state. For example, consider the
following program:

    __attribute__((__noinline__))
    long skb_pull_data(struct __sk_buff *sk, __u32 len)
    {
        return bpf_skb_pull_data(sk, len);
    }

    SEC("tc")
    int test_invalidate_checks(struct __sk_buff *sk)
    {
        int *p = (void *)(long)sk-&gt;data;
        if ((void *)(p + 1) &gt; (void *)(long)sk-&gt;data_end) return TCX_DROP;
        skb_pull_data(sk, 0);
        *p = 42;
        return TCX_PASS;
    }

After a call to bpf_skb_pull_data() the pointer 'p' can't be used
safely. See function filter.c:bpf_helper_changes_pkt_data() for a list
of such helpers.

At the moment verifier invalidates packet pointers when processing
helper function calls, and does not traverse global sub-programs when
processing calls to global sub-programs. This means that calls to
helpers done from global sub-programs do not invalidate pointers in
the caller state. E.g. the program above is unsafe, but is not
rejected by verifier.

This commit fixes the omission by computing field
bpf_subprog_info-&gt;changes_pkt_data for each sub-program before main
verification pass.
changes_pkt_data should be set if:
- subprogram calls helper for which bpf_helper_changes_pkt_data
  returns true;
- subprogram calls a global function,
  for which bpf_subprog_info-&gt;changes_pkt_data should be set.

The verifier.c:check_cfg() pass is modified to compute this
information. The commit relies on depth first instruction traversal
done by check_cfg() and absence of recursive function calls:
- check_cfg() would eventually visit every call to subprogram S in a
  state when S is fully explored;
- when S is fully explored:
  - every direct helper call within S is explored
    (and thus changes_pkt_data is set if needed);
  - every call to subprogram S1 called by S was visited with S1 fully
    explored (and thus S inherits changes_pkt_data from S1).

The downside of such approach is that dead code elimination is not
taken into account: if a helper call inside global function is dead
because of current configuration, verifier would conservatively assume
that the call occurs for the purpose of the changes_pkt_data
computation.

Use BPF helper number instead of function pointer in
bpf_helper_changes_pkt_data(). This would simplify usage of this
function in verifier.c:check_cfg() (in a follow-up patch),
where only helper number is easily available and there is no real need
to lookup helper proto.

commit b79028039f440e7d2c4df6ab243060c4e3803e84 upstream.

Commit 7491cdf46b5c ("cpufreq: Avoid using inconsistent policy-&gt;min and
policy-&gt;max") overlooked the fact that policy-&gt;min and policy-&gt;max were
accessed directly in cpufreq_frequency_table_target() and in the
functions called by it.  Consequently, the changes made by that commit
led to problems with setting policy limits.

Address this by passing the target frequency limits to __resolve_freq()
and cpufreq_frequency_table_target() and propagating them to the
functions called by the latter.

[ Upstream commit 9c0b4bb7f6303c9c4e2e34984c46f5a86478f84d ]

The current method to take into account uclamp hints when estimating the
target frequency can end in a situation where the selected target
frequency is finally higher than uclamp hints, whereas there are no real
needs. Such cases mainly happen because we are currently mixing the
traditional scheduler utilization signal with the uclamp performance
hints. By adding these 2 metrics, we loose an important information when
it comes to select the target frequency, and we have to make some
assumptions which can't fit all cases.

Rework the interface between the scheduler and schedutil governor in order
to propagate all information down to the cpufreq governor.

effective_cpu_util() interface changes and now returns the actual
utilization of the CPU with 2 optional inputs:

- The minimum performance for this CPU; typically the capacity to handle
  the deadline task and the interrupt pressure. But also uclamp_min
  request when available.

- The maximum targeting performance for this CPU which reflects the
  maximum level that we would like to not exceed. By default it will be
  the CPU capacity but can be reduced because of some performance hints
  set with uclamp. The value can be lower than actual utilization and/or
  min performance level.

A new sugov_effective_cpu_perf() interface is also available to compute
the final performance level that is targeted for the CPU, after applying
some cpufreq headroom and taking into account all inputs.

With these 2 functions, schedutil is now able to decide when it must go
above uclamp hints. It now also has a generic way to get the min
performance level.

The dependency between energy model and cpufreq governor and its headroom
policy doesn't exist anymore.

eenv_pd_max_util() asks schedutil for the targeted performance after
applying the impact of the waking task.
