sh_eth: fix kernel oops in skb_put()

[ Upstream commit 248be83dcb3feb3f6332eb3d010a016402138484 ] In a low memory situation the following kernel oops occurs: Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000050 pgd = 8490c000 [00000050] *pgd=4651e831, *pte=00000000, *ppte=00000000 Internal error: Oops: 17 [#1] PREEMPT ARM Modules linked in: CPU: 0 Not tainted (3.4-at16 #9) PC is at skb_put+0x10/0x98 LR is at sh_eth_poll+0x2c8/0xa10 pc : [<8035f780>] lr : [<8028bf50>] psr: 60000113 sp : 84eb1a90 ip : 84eb1ac8 fp : 84eb1ac4 r10: 0000003f r9 : 000005ea r8 : 00000000 r7 : 00000000 r6 : 940453b0 r5 : 00030000 r4 : 9381b180 r3 : 00000000 r2 : 00000000 r1 : 000005ea r0 : 00000000 Flags: nZCv IRQs on FIQs on Mode SVC_32 ISA ARM Segment user Control: 10c53c7d Table: 4248c059 DAC: 00000015 Process klogd (pid: 2046, stack limit = 0x84eb02e8) [...] This is because netdev_alloc_skb() fails and 'mdp->rx_skbuff[entry]' is left NULL but sh_eth_rx() later uses it without checking.

sh_eth: fix RX buffer size calculation

2015-10-27T01:32:16Z

The RX buffer size calulation failed to account for the length granularity (which is now 32 bytes)... Signed-off-by: Sergei Shtylyov Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

sh_eth: fix RX buffer size alignment

2015-10-27T01:32:14Z

Both Renesas R-Car and RZ/A1 manuals state that RX buffer length must be a multiple of 32 bytes, while the driver only uses 16 byte granularity... Signed-off-by: Sergei Shtylyov Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

sh_eth: propagate platform_get_irq() error upstream

2015-08-29T05:25:43Z

The driver overrides the error returned by platform_get_irq() with -ENODEV which e.g. precludes the deferred probing from working. Propagate the real error code to the driver core instead. Signed-off-by: Sergei Shtylyov Acked-by: Geert Uytterhoeven Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

ravb: minimize TX data copying

2015-07-27T08:22:38Z

Renesas Ethernet AVB controller requires that all data are aligned on 4-byte boundary. While it's easily achievable for the RX data with the help of skb_reserve() (we even align on 128-byte boundary as recommended by the manual), we can't do the same with the TX data, and it always comes unaligned from the networking core. Originally we solved it an easy way, copying all packet to a preallocated aligned buffer; however, it's enough to copy only up to 3 first bytes from each packet, doing the transfer using 2 TX descriptors instead of just 1. Here's an implementation of the new TX algorithm that significantly reduces the driver's memory requirements. Signed-off-by: Sergei Shtylyov Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

ravb: fix ring memory allocation

2015-07-22T05:34:27Z

The driver is written as if it can adapt to a low memory situation allocating less RX skbs and TX aligned buffers than the respective RX/TX ring sizes. In reality though the driver would malfunction in this case. Stop being overly smart and just fail in such situation -- this is achieved by moving the memory allocation from ravb_ring_format() to ravb_ring_init(). We leave dma_map_single() calls in place but make their failure non-fatal by marking the corresponding RX descriptors with zero data size which should prevent DMA to an invalid addresses.

ravb: fix race updating TCCR

2015-07-21T03:42:02Z

The TCCR.TSRQn bit may get clearead after TCCR gets read, so that TCCR write would get skipped. We don't need to check this bit before setting. Signed-off-by: Sergei Shtylyov Signed-off-by: David S. Miller
