net: sgi: ioc3-eth: fix split TX DMA mapping lengths

2026-07-01T00:13:06Z

When a linear skb crosses a 16 KiB boundary, ioc3_start_xmit() splits it into two buffers of lengths s1 and s2. The descriptor advertises those lengths through B1CNT and B2CNT. The first buffer is mapped with s1, but the second buffer is also mapped with s1 even though the device is told to fetch s2 bytes from it. When the lengths differ, the DMA mapping does not cover the same region as the second descriptor buffer, which can result in incorrect cache maintenance or a DMA fault on implementations that enforce the mapped range. There is a separate mismatch in the error path. If mapping the second buffer fails, only d1 needs to be unmapped. d1 was mapped for s1 bytes, but the driver unmaps it using the full packet length. Streaming DMA mappings must be unmapped with the same size used for the corresponding map operation. Map the second buffer with s2 and unmap the first buffer with s1 when the second mapping fails.

net: sgi: ioc3-eth: unregister netdev before freeing DMA rings

2026-07-01T00:11:42Z

ioc3eth_remove() frees the coherent RX and TX descriptor rings before unregistering the netdev. If the interface is running, unregister_netdev() invokes ioc3_close() through ndo_stop. ioc3_close() stops the device and then calls ioc3_free_rx_bufs() and ioc3_clean_tx_ring(). Both cleanup functions access descriptors in the rings, so the current ordering causes CPU accesses to freed coherent memory. Until ioc3_stop() disables RX and TX DMA, the device may also continue using the freed ring addresses. Unregister the netdev before releasing the rings. This lets the core close a running interface and quiesce the device while the rings are still valid. Keep the explicit timer deletion because ndo_stop is not called when the interface is already down.

treewide: Switch/rename to timer_delete[_sync]()

timer_delete[_sync]() replaces del_timer[_sync](). Convert the whole tree over and remove the historical wrapper inlines. Conversion was done with coccinelle plus manual fixups where necessary. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar

net: ethernet: Switch back to struct platform_driver::remove()

2024-10-04T23:39:56Z

After commit 0edb555a65d1 ("platform: Make platform_driver::remove() return void") .remove() is (again) the right callback to implement for platform drivers. Convert all platform drivers below drivers/net/ethernet to use .remove(), with the eventual goal to drop struct platform_driver::remove_new(). As .remove() and .remove_new() have the same prototypes, conversion is done by just changing the structure member name in the driver initializer.

net: ethernet: sgi: Convert to platform remove callback returning void

2023-09-20T08:06:40Z

The .remove() callback for a platform driver returns an int which makes many driver authors wrongly assume it's possible to do error handling by returning an error code. However the value returned is ignored (apart from emitting a warning) and this typically results in resource leaks. To improve here there is a quest to make the remove callback return void. In the first step of this quest all drivers are converted to .remove_new() which already returns void. Eventually after all drivers are converted, .remove_new() is renamed to .remove(). Trivially convert these drivers from always returning zero in the remove callback to the void returning variant. Signed-off-by: Uwe Kleine-König Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net: ethernet: move from strlcpy with unused retval to strscpy

Follow the advice of the below link and prefer 'strscpy' in this subsystem. Conversion is 1:1 because the return value is not used. Generated by a coccinelle script.

dev_ioctl: split out ndo_eth_ioctl

2021-07-27T19:11:45Z

Most users of ndo_do_ioctl are ethernet drivers that implement the MII commands SIOCGMIIPHY/SIOCGMIIREG/SIOCSMIIREG, or hardware timestamping with SIOCSHWTSTAMP/SIOCGHWTSTAMP. Separate these from the few drivers that use ndo_do_ioctl to implement SIOCBOND, SIOCBR and SIOCWANDEV commands. This is a purely cosmetic change intended to help readers find their way through the implementation.
