Subject: cdc_ncm: workaround for EM7455 "silent" data interface
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
[ Upstream commit c086e7096170390594c425114d98172bc9aceb8a ]
Several Lenovo users have reported problems with their Sierra
Wireless EM7455 modem. The driver has loaded successfully and
the MBIM management channel has appeared to work, including
establishing a connection to the mobile network. But no frames
have been received over the data interface.
The problem affects all EM7455 and MC7455, and is assumed to
affect other modems based on the same Qualcomm chipset and
baseband firmware.
Testing narrowed the problem down to what seems to be a
firmware timing bug during initialization. Adding a short sleep
while probing is sufficient to make the problem disappear.
Experiments have shown that 1-2 ms is too little to have any
effect, while 10-20 ms is enough to reliably succeed.

Subject: atl2: Disable unimplemented scatter/gather feature
[ Upstream commit f43bfaeddc79effbf3d0fcb53ca477cca66f3db8 ]
atl2 includes NETIF_F_SG in hw_features even though it has no support
for non-linear skbs. This bug was originally harmless since the
driver does not claim to implement checksum offload and that used to
be a requirement for SG.
Now that SG and checksum offload are independent features, if you
explicitly enable SG *and* use one of the rare protocols that can use
SG without checkusm offload, this potentially leaks sensitive
information (before you notice that it just isn't working). Therefore
this obscure bug has been designated CVE-2016-2117.

Subject: net: alx: Work around the DMA RX overflow issue
[ Upstream commit 881d0327db37ad917a367c77aff1afa1ee41e0a9 ]
Note: This is a verified backported patch for stable 4.4 kernel, and it
could also be applied to 4.3/4.2/4.1/3.18/3.16
There is a problem with alx devices, that the network link will be
lost in 1-5 minutes after the device is up.
>From debugging without datasheet, we found the error always
happen when the DMA RX address is set to 0x....fc0, which is very
likely to be a HW/silicon problem.
This patch will apply rx skb with 64 bytes longer space, and if the
allocated skb has a 0x...fc0 address, it will use skb_resever(skb, 64)
to advance the address, so that the RX overflow can be avoided.
