<title>net: stmmac: Defer VLAN HW configuration when interface is down</title>

VLAN register accesses on the MAC side require the PHY RX clock to be
active. When the network interface is down, the PHY is suspended and
the RX clock is unavailable, causing VLAN operations to fail with
timeouts.

The VLAN core automatically removes VID 0 after the interface goes down
and re-adds it when it comes back up, so these timeouts happen during
normal interface down/up:

    # ip link set end1 down
    renesas-gbeth 15c40000.ethernet end1: Timeout accessing MAC_VLAN_Tag_Filter
    renesas-gbeth 15c40000.ethernet end1: failed to kill vid 0081/0

Adding VLANs while the interface is down also fails:

    # ip link add link end1 name end1.10 type vlan id 10
    renesas-gbeth 15c40000.ethernet end1: Timeout accessing MAC_VLAN_Tag_Filter
    RTNETLINK answers: Device or resource busy

To fix this, check if the interface is up before accessing VLAN registers.
The software state is always kept up to date regardless of interface state.

When the interface is brought up, stmmac_vlan_restore() is called
to write the VLAN state to hardware.

<content type='text'>
When the network interface is opened or resumed, a DMA reset is performed,
which resets all hardware state, including VLAN state. Currently, only
the resume path is restoring the VLAN state via
stmmac_restore_hw_vlan_rx_fltr(), but that is incomplete: the VLAN hash
table and the VLAN_TAG control bits are not restored.

Therefore, add stmmac_vlan_restore(), which restores the full VLAN
state by updating both the HW filter entries and the hash table, and
call it from both the open and resume paths.

The VLAN restore is moved outside of phylink_rx_clk_stop_block/unblock
in the resume path because receive clock stop is already disabled when
stmmac supports VLAN.

Also, remove the hash readback code in vlan_restore_hw_rx_fltr() that
attempts to restore VTHM by reading VLAN_HASH_TABLE, as it always reads
zero after DMA reset, making it dead code.

<title>net: stmmac: Improve double VLAN handling</title>

<id>urn:sha1:e38200e361cbe331806dc454c76c11c7cd95e1b9</id>
<content type='text'>
The double VLAN bits (EDVLP, ESVL, DOVLTC) are handled inconsistently
between the two vlan_update_hash() implementations:

- dwxgmac2_update_vlan_hash() explicitly clears the double VLAN bits when
is_double is false, meaning that adding a 802.1Q VLAN will disable
double VLAN mode:

  $ ip link add link eth0 name eth0.200 type vlan id 200 protocol 802.1ad
  $ ip link add link eth0 name eth0.100 type vlan id 100
  # Double VLAN bits no longer set

- vlan_update_hash() sets these bits and only clears them when the last
VLAN has been removed, so double VLAN mode remains enabled even after all
802.1AD VLANs are removed.

Address both issues by tracking the number of active 802.1AD VLANs in
priv-&gt;num_double_vlans. Pass this count to stmmac_vlan_update() so both
implementations correctly set the double VLAN bits when any 802.1AD
VLAN is active, and clear them only when none remain.

Also update vlan_update_hash() to explicitly clear the double VLAN bits
when is_double is false, matching the dwxgmac2 behavior.

stmmac_vlan_rx_add_vid() updates active_vlans and the VLAN hash
register before writing the HW filter entry. If the filter write
fails, it leaves a stale VID in active_vlans and the hash register.

stmmac_vlan_rx_kill_vid() has the reverse problem: it clears
active_vlans before removing the HW filter. On failure, the VID is
gone from active_vlans but still present in the HW filter table.

To fix this, reorder the operations to update the hash table first,
then attempt the HW filter operation. If the HW filter fails, roll
back both the active_vlans bitmap and the hash table by calling
stmmac_vlan_update() again.

<content type='text'>
When stmmac_init_timestamping() is called, it clears the receive and
transmit path booleans that allow timestamps to be read. These are
never re-initialised until after userspace requests timestamping
features to be enabled.

However, our copy of the timestamp configuration is not cleared, which
means we return the old configuration to userspace when requested.
This is inconsistent. Fix this by clearing the timestamp configuration.

This converts some of the visually simpler cases that have been split
over multiple lines.  I only did the ones that are easy to verify the
resulting diff by having just that final GFP_KERNEL argument on the next
line.

Somebody should probably do a proper coccinelle script for this, but for
me the trivial script actually resulted in an assertion failure in the
middle of the script.  I probably had made it a bit _too_ trivial.

So after fighting that far a while I decided to just do some of the
syntactically simpler cases with variations of the previous 'sed'
scripts.

The more syntactically complex multi-line cases would mostly really want
whitespace cleanup anyway.

This is the exact same thing as the 'alloc_obj()' version, only much
smaller because there are a lot fewer users of the *alloc_flex()
interface.

As with alloc_obj() version, this was done entirely with mindless brute
force, using the same script, except using 'flex' in the pattern rather
than 'objs*'.

This was done entirely with mindless brute force, using

    git grep -l '\&lt;k[vmz]*alloc_objs*(.*, GFP_KERNEL)' |
        xargs sed -i 's/\(alloc_objs*(.*\), GFP_KERNEL)/\1)/'

to convert the new alloc_obj() users that had a simple GFP_KERNEL
argument to just drop that argument.

Note that due to the extreme simplicity of the scripting, any slightly
more complex cases spread over multiple lines would not be triggered:
they definitely exist, but this covers the vast bulk of the cases, and
the resulting diff is also then easier to check automatically.

For the same reason the 'flex' versions will be done as a separate
conversion.
