Subject: pptp: remove a buggy dst release in pptp_connect()
From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet(a)google.com>
[ Upstream commit bfacfb457b36911a10140b8cb3ce76a74883ac5a ]
Once dst has been cached in socket via sk_setup_caps(),
it is illegal to call ip_rt_put() (or dst_release()),
since sk_setup_caps() did not change dst refcount.
We can still dereference it since we hold socket lock.

Subject: nfp: use full 40 bits of the NSP buffer address
From: Dirk van der Merwe <dirk.vandermerwe(a)netronome.com>
[ Upstream commit 1489bbd10e16079ce30a53d3c22a431fd47af791 ]
The NSP default buffer is a piece of NFP memory where additional
command data can be placed. Its format has been copied from
host buffer, but the PCIe selection bits do not make sense in
this case. If those get masked out from a NFP address - writes
to random place in the chip memory may be issued and crash the
device.
Even in the general NSP buffer case, it doesn't make sense to have the
PCIe selection bits there anymore. These are unused at the moment, and
when it becomes necessary, the PCIe selection bits should rather be
moved to another register to utilise more bits for the buffer address.
This has never been an issue because the buffer used to be
allocated in memory with less-than-38-bit-long address but that
is about to change.

Subject: net sched actions: fix dumping which requires several messages to user space
From: Craig Dillabaugh <cdillaba(a)mojatatu.com>
[ Upstream commit 734549eb550c0c720bc89e50501f1b1e98cdd841 ]
Fixes a bug in the tcf_dump_walker function that can cause some actions
to not be reported when dumping a large number of actions. This issue
became more aggrevated when cookies feature was added. In particular
this issue is manifest when large cookie values are assigned to the
actions and when enough actions are created that the resulting table
must be dumped in multiple batches.
The number of actions returned in each batch is limited by the total
number of actions and the memory buffer size. With small cookies
the numeric limit is reached before the buffer size limit, which avoids
the code path triggering this bug. When large cookies are used buffer
fills before the numeric limit, and the erroneous code path is hit.
For example after creating 32 csum actions with the cookie
aaaabbbbccccdddd
$ tc actions ls action csum
total acts 26
action order 0: csum (tcp) action continue
index 1 ref 1 bind 0
cookie aaaabbbbccccdddd
.....
action order 25: csum (tcp) action continue
index 26 ref 1 bind 0
cookie aaaabbbbccccdddd
total acts 6
action order 0: csum (tcp) action continue
index 28 ref 1 bind 0
cookie aaaabbbbccccdddd
......
action order 5: csum (tcp) action continue
index 32 ref 1 bind 0
cookie aaaabbbbccccdddd
Note that the action with index 27 is omitted from the report.

From: Shahar Klein <shahark(a)mellanox.com>
[ Upstream commit a117f73dc2430443f23e18367fa545981129c1a6 ]
When mlx5_core is loaded it is expected to sync ports
with all vxlan devices so it can support vxlan encap/decap.
This is done via udp_tunnel_get_rx_info(). Currently this
call is set in mlx5e_nic_enable() and if the netdev is not in
NETREG_REGISTERED state it will not be called.
Normally on load the netdev state is not NETREG_REGISTERED
so udp_tunnel_get_rx_info() will not be called.
Moving udp_tunnel_get_rx_info() to mlx5e_open() so
it will be called on netdev UP event and allow encap/decap.

From: Jianbo Liu <jianbol(a)mellanox.com>
[ Upstream commit af1607c37d9d85a66fbcf43b7f11bf3d94b9bb69 ]
For NIC flows, the parsed attributes are not freed when we exit
successfully from mlx5e_configure_flower().
There is possible double free for eswitch flows. If error is returned
from rhashtable_insert_fast(), the parse attrs will be freed in
mlx5e_tc_del_flow(), but they will be freed again before exiting
mlx5e_configure_flower().
To fix both issues we do the following:
(1) change the condition that determines if to issue the free call to
check if this flow is NIC flow, or it does not have encap action.
(2) reorder the code such that that the check and free calls are done
before we attempt to add into the hash table.

Subject: net/mlx5e: Fix traffic being dropped on VF representor
From: Roi Dayan <roid(a)mellanox.com>
[ Upstream commit 4246f698dd58e3c6246fa919ef0b0a1d29a57e4a ]
Increase representor netdev RQ size to avoid dropped packets.
The current size (two) is just too small to keep up with
conventional slow path traffic patterns.
Also match the SQ size to the RQ size.
Fixes: cb67b832921c ("net/mlx5e: Introduce SRIOV VF representors")
