qmi_wwan: allow max_mtu above hard_mtu to control rx_urb_size

2026-03-19T15:08:42Z

commit 55f854dd5bdd8e19b936a00ef1f8d776ac32c7b0 upstream. Commit c7159e960f14 ("usbnet: limit max_mtu based on device's hard_mtu") capped net->max_mtu to the device's hard_mtu in usbnet_probe(). While this correctly prevents oversized packets on standard USB network devices, it breaks the qmi_wwan driver. qmi_wwan relies on userspace (e.g. ModemManager) setting a large MTU on the wwan0 interface to configure rx_urb_size via usbnet_change_mtu(). QMI modems negotiate USB transfer sizes of 16,383 or 32,767 bytes, and the USB receive buffers must be sized accordingly. With max_mtu capped to hard_mtu (~1500 bytes), userspace can no longer raise the MTU, the receive buffers remain small, and download speeds drop from >300 Mbps to ~0.8 Mbps. Introduce a FLAG_NOMAXMTU driver flag that allows individual usbnet drivers to opt out of the max_mtu cap. Set this flag in qmi_wwan's driver_info structures to restore the previous behavior for QMI devices, while keeping the safety fix in place for all other usbnet drivers.

net: dsa: microchip: Fix error path in PTP IRQ setup

2026-03-19T15:08:40Z

commit 99c8c16a4aad0b37293cae213e15957c573cf79b upstream. If request_threaded_irq() fails during the PTP message IRQ setup, the newly created IRQ mapping is never disposed. Indeed, the ksz_ptp_irq_setup()'s error path only frees the mappings that were successfully set up. Dispose the newly created mapping if the associated request_threaded_irq() fails at setup.

net: ethernet: arc: emac: quiesce interrupts before requesting IRQ

2026-03-19T15:08:40Z

commit 2503d08f8a2de618e5c3a8183b250ff4a2e2d52c upstream. Normal RX/TX interrupts are enabled later, in arc_emac_open(), so probe should not see interrupt delivery in the usual case. However, hardware may still present stale or latched interrupt status left by firmware or the bootloader. If probe later unwinds after devm_request_irq() has installed the handler, such a stale interrupt can still reach arc_emac_intr() during teardown and race with release of the associated net_device. Avoid that window by putting the device into a known quiescent state before requesting the IRQ: disable all EMAC interrupt sources and clear any pending EMAC interrupt status bits. This keeps the change hardware-focused and minimal, while preventing spurious IRQ delivery from leftover state.

net: mctp: fix device leak on probe failure

2026-03-19T15:08:40Z

commit 224a0d284c3caf1951302d1744a714784febed71 upstream. Driver core holds a reference to the USB interface and its parent USB device while the interface is bound to a driver and there is no need to take additional references unless the structures are needed after disconnect. This driver takes a reference to the USB device during probe but does not to release it on probe failures. Drop the redundant device reference to fix the leak, reduce cargo culting, make it easier to spot drivers where an extra reference is needed, and reduce the risk of further memory leaks.

ice: fix retry for AQ command 0x06EE

2026-03-19T15:08:36Z

commit fb4903b3354aed4a2301180cf991226f896c87ed upstream. Executing ethtool -m can fail reporting a netlink I/O error while firmware link management holds the i2c bus used to communicate with the module. According to Intel(R) Ethernet Controller E810 Datasheet Rev 2.8 [1] Section 3.3.10.4 Read/Write SFF EEPROM (0x06EE) request should to be retried upon receiving EBUSY from firmware. Commit e9c9692c8a81 ("ice: Reimplement module reads used by ethtool") implemented it only for part of ice_get_module_eeprom(), leaving all other calls to ice_aq_sff_eeprom() vulnerable to returning early on getting EBUSY without retrying. Remove the retry loop from ice_get_module_eeprom() and add Admin Queue (AQ) command with opcode 0x06EE to the list of commands that should be retried on receiving EBUSY from firmware.

net: mana: Ring doorbell at 4 CQ wraparounds

2026-03-19T15:08:36Z

commit dabffd08545ffa1d7183bc45e387860984025291 upstream. MANA hardware requires at least one doorbell ring every 8 wraparounds of the CQ. The driver rings the doorbell as a form of flow control to inform hardware that CQEs have been consumed. The NAPI poll functions mana_poll_tx_cq() and mana_poll_rx_cq() can poll up to CQE_POLLING_BUFFER (512) completions per call. If the CQ has fewer than 512 entries, a single poll call can process more than 4 wraparounds without ringing the doorbell. The doorbell threshold check also uses ">" instead of ">=", delaying the ring by one extra CQE beyond 4 wraparounds. Combined, these issues can cause the driver to exceed the 8-wraparound hardware limit, leading to missed completions and stalled queues. Fix this by capping the number of CQEs polled per call to 4 wraparounds of the CQ in both TX and RX paths. Also change the doorbell threshold from ">" to ">=" so the doorbell is rung as soon as 4 wraparounds are reached.

ixgbevf: fix link setup issue

2026-03-19T15:08:35Z

commit feae40a6a178bb525a15f19288016e5778102a99 upstream. It may happen that VF spawned for E610 adapter has problem with setting link up. This happens when ixgbevf supporting mailbox API 1.6 cooperates with PF driver which doesn't support this version of API, and hence doesn't support new approach for getting PF link data. In that case VF asks PF to provide link data but as PF doesn't support it, returns -EOPNOTSUPP what leads to early bail from link configuration sequence. Avoid such situation by using legacy VFLINKS approach whenever negotiated API version is less than 1.6. To reproduce the issue just create VF and set its link up - adapter must be any from the E610 family, ixgbevf must support API 1.6 or higher while ixgbevf must not.

ice: reintroduce retry mechanism for indirect AQ

commit 326256c0a72d4877cec1d4df85357da106233128 upstream. Add retry mechanism for indirect Admin Queue (AQ) commands. To do so we need to keep the command buffer.

net: usb: lan78xx: skip LTM configuration for LAN7850

2026-03-19T15:08:23Z

commit d9cc0e440f0664f6f3e2c26e39ab9dd5f3badba7 upstream. Do not configure Latency Tolerance Messaging (LTM) on USB 2.0 hardware. The LAN7850 is a High-Speed (USB 2.0) only device and does not support SuperSpeed features like LTM. Currently, the driver unconditionally attempts to configure LTM registers during initialization. On the LAN7850, these registers do not exist, resulting in writes to invalid or undocumented memory space. This issue was identified during a port to the regmap API with strict register validation enabled. While no functional issues or crashes have been observed from these invalid writes, bypassing LTM initialization on the LAN7850 ensures the driver strictly adheres to the hardware's valid register map.

net: usb: lan78xx: fix WARN in __netif_napi_del_locked on disconnect

2026-03-19T15:08:23Z

commit 312c816c6bc30342bc30dca0d6db617ab4d3ae4e upstream. Remove redundant netif_napi_del() call from disconnect path. A WARN may be triggered in __netif_napi_del_locked() during USB device disconnect: WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 11 at net/core/dev.c:7417 __netif_napi_del_locked+0x2b4/0x350 This happens because netif_napi_del() is called in the disconnect path while NAPI is still enabled. However, it is not necessary to call netif_napi_del() explicitly, since unregister_netdev() will handle NAPI teardown automatically and safely. Removing the redundant call avoids triggering the warning.
