Similar to the situation described for sja1105 in commit 1f9fc48fd3
("net: dsa: sja1105: fix reception from VLAN-unaware bridges"), the
vsc73xx driver uses tag_8021q and doesn't need the ds->untag_bridge_pvid
request. In fact, this option breaks packet reception.
The ds->untag_bridge_pvid option strips VLANs from packets received on
VLAN-unaware bridge ports. But those VLANs should already be stripped
by tag_vsc73xx_8021q.c as part of vsc73xx_rcv() - they are not VLANs in
VLAN-unaware mode, but DSA tags. Thus, dsa_software_vlan_untag() tries
to untag a VLAN that doesn't exist, corrupting the packet.

Recent work moving the reporting of Rx software timestamps to the core
[1] highlighted an issue where hardware time stamping was advertised
for the platforms where it is not supported.
Fix this by covering advertising support for hardware timestamps only if
the hardware supports it. Due to the Tx implementation in RAVB software
Tx timestamping is also only considered if the hardware supports
hardware timestamps. This should be addressed in future, but this fix
only reflects what the driver currently implements.

If:
1) the user requested USO, but
2) there is not enough payload for GSO to kick in, and
3) the egress device doesn't offer checksum offload, then
we want to compute the L4 checksum in software early on.
In the case when we are not taking the GSO path, but it has been requested,
the software checksum fallback in skb_segment doesn't get a chance to
compute the full checksum, if the egress device can't do it. As a result we
end up sending UDP datagrams with only a partial checksum filled in, which
the peer will discard.

Martin KaFai Lau reported use-after-free [0] in reqsk_timer_handler().
"""
We are seeing a use-after-free from a bpf prog attached to
trace_tcp_retransmit_synack. The program passes the req->sk to the
bpf_sk_storage_get_tracing kernel helper which does check for null
before using it.
"""
The commit 83fccfc394 ("inet: fix potential deadlock in
reqsk_queue_unlink()") added timer_pending() in reqsk_queue_unlink() not
to call del_timer_sync() from reqsk_timer_handler(), but it introduced a
small race window.
Before the timer is called, expire_timers() calls detach_timer(timer, true)
to clear timer->entry.pprev and marks it as not pending.
If reqsk_queue_unlink() checks timer_pending() just after expire_timers()
calls detach_timer(), TCP will miss del_timer_sync(); the reqsk timer will
continue running and send multiple SYN+ACKs until it expires.
The reported UAF could happen if req->sk is close()d earlier than the timer
expiration, which is 63s by default.
The scenario would be
1. inet_csk_complete_hashdance() calls inet_csk_reqsk_queue_drop(),
but del_timer_sync() is missed
2. reqsk timer is executed and scheduled again
3. req->sk is accept()ed and reqsk_put() decrements rsk_refcnt, but
reqsk timer still has another one, and inet_csk_accept() does not
clear req->sk for non-TFO sockets
4. sk is close()d
5. reqsk timer is executed again, and BPF touches req->sk
Let's not use timer_pending() by passing the caller context to
__inet_csk_reqsk_queue_drop().
Note that reqsk timer is pinned, so the issue does not happen in most
use cases. [1]

The CP_SMMU_TABLE_UPDATE _should_ be waiting for idle, but on some
devices (x1-85, possibly others), it seems to pass that barrier while
there are still things in the event completion FIFO waiting to be
written back to memory.
Work around that by adding a fence wait before context switch. The
CP_EVENT_WRITE that writes the fence is the last write from a submit,
so seeing this value hit memory is a reliable indication that it is
safe to proceed with the context switch.
v2: Only emit CP_WAIT_TIMESTAMP on a7xx, as it is not supported on a6xx.
Conversely, I've not been able to reproduce this issue on a6xx, so
hopefully it is limited to a7xx, or perhaps just certain a7xx
devices.

VDSO time functions do not call any other function, so they don't
need to save/restore LR. However, retrieving the address of VDSO data
page requires using LR hence saving then restoring it, which can be
heavy on some CPUs. On the other hand, VDSO functions on powerpc are
not standard functions and require a wrapper function to call C VDSO
functions. And that wrapper has to save and restore LR in order to
call the C VDSO function, so retrieving VDSO data page address in that
wrapper doesn't require additional save/restore of LR.
For random VDSO functions it is a bit different. Because the function
calls __arch_chacha20_blocks_nostack(), it saves and restores LR.
Retrieving VDSO data page address can then be done there without
additional save/restore of LR.
So lets implement __arch_get_vdso_rng_data() and simplify the wrapper.
It starts paving the way for the day powerpc will implement a more
standard ABI for VDSO functions.

The page containing VDSO time data is swapped with the one containing
TIME namespace data when a process uses a non-root time namespace.
For other data like powerpc specific data and RNG data, it means
tracking whether time namespace is the root one or not to know which
page to use.
Simplify the logic behind by moving time data out of first data page
so that the first data page which contains everything else always
remains the first page. Time data is in the second or third page
depending on selected time namespace.
While we are playing with get_datapage macro, directly take into
account the data offset inside the macro instead of adding that offset
afterwards.

The documentation which tries to give advices how to properly inserting
delays or sleeps is outdated. The file name is 'timers-howto.rst' which
might be misleading as it is only about delay and sleep mechanisms and not
how to use timers.
Update the documentation by integrating the important parts from the
related function descriptions and move it all into a self explaining file
with the name "delay_sleep_functions.rst".

anysee driver was transformed to use usbv2 years ago. The comments in
anysee_ctrl_msg() still are referencing the old interfaces where msleep()
was used. The v2 interfaces also changed over the years and with commit
1162c7b383 ("[media] dvb_usb_v2: refactor dvb_usbv2_generic_rw()") the
usage of msleep() was gone anyway.
Remove FIXME comment and update also comment before call to
dvb_usbv2_generic_rw_locked().

When commit 38f7b7067d ("powerpc/rtas: rtas_busy_delay() improvements")
was introduced, documentation about proper usage of sleep related functions
was outdated.
The commit message references the usage of a HZ=100 system. When using a
20ms sleep duration on such a system and therefore using msleep(), the
possible additional slack will be +10ms.
When the system is configured with HZ=100 the granularity of a jiffy and of
a bucket of the lowest timer wheel level is 10ms. To make sure a timer will
not expire early (when queueing of the timer races with an concurrent
update of jiffies), timers are always queued into the next bucket. This is
the reason for the maximal possible slack of 10ms.
fsleep() limits the maximal possible slack to 25% by making threshold
between usleep_range() and msleep() HZ dependent. As soon as the accuracy
of msleep() is sufficient, the less expensive timer list timer based
sleeping function is used instead of the more expensive hrtimer based
usleep_range() function. The udelay() will not be used in this specific
usecase as the lowest sleep length is larger than 1 millisecond.
Use fsleep() directly instead of using an own heuristic for the best
sleeping mechanism to use.

copied all the same outdated documentation about sleep/delay function
limitations. In those comments, the generic (and still outdated) timer

As proper function descriptions for used delay and sleep functions are in

missing colon after "Returns" in function description and move return value
description to the end of the function description.

fsleep() simply implements the recommendations of the outdated
documentation in "Documentation/timers/timers-howto.rst". This should be a
user friendly interface to choose always the best timeout function
approach:
- udelay() for very short sleep durations shorter than 10 microseconds
- usleep_range() for sleep durations until 20 milliseconds
- msleep() for the others
The actual implementation has several problems:
- It does not take into account that HZ resolution also has an impact on
granularity of jiffies and has also an impact on the granularity of the
buckets of timer wheel levels. This means that accuracy for the timeout
does not have an upper limit. When executing fsleep(20000) on a HZ=100
system, the possible additional slack will be 50% as the granularity of
the buckets in the lowest level is 10 milliseconds.
- The upper limit of usleep_range() is twice the requested timeout. When no
other interrupts occur in this range, the maximum value is used. This
means that the requested sleep length has then an additional delay of
100%.
Change the thresholds for the decisions in fsleep() to make sure the
maximum slack which is added to the sleep duration is 25%.
Note: Outdated documentation will be updated in a followup patch.

udelay() as well as ndelay() are defines and no functions and are using
constants to be able to transform a sleep time into loops and to prevent
too long udelays/ndelays. There was a compiler error with non-const 8 bit
arguments which was fixed by commit a87e553fab ("asm-generic: delay.h fix
udelay and ndelay for 8 bit args"). When using a function, the non-const 8
bit argument is type casted and the problem would be gone.
Transform udelay() and ndelay() into proper functions, remove the no longer
and confusing division, add defines for the magic values and add some
explanations as well.
