In commit 10724cc7

 ("tipc: redesign connection-level flow control")
we replaced the previous message based flow control with one based on
1k blocks. In order to ensure backwards compatibility the mechanism
falls back to using message as base unit when it senses that the peer
doesn't support the new algorithm. The default flow control window,
i.e., how many units can be sent before the sender blocks and waits
for an acknowledge (aka advertisement) is 512. This was tested against
the previous version, which uses an acknowledge frequency of on ack per
256 received message, and found to work fine.

However, we missed the fact that versions older than Linux 3.15 use an
acknowledge frequency of 512, which is exactly the limit where a 4.6+
sender will stop and wait for acknowledge. This would also work fine if
it weren't for the fact that if the first sent message on a 4.6+ server
side is an empty SYNACK, this one is also is counted as a sent message,
while it is not counted as a received message on a legacy 3.15-receiver.
This leads to the sender always being one step ahead of the receiver, a
scenario causing the sender to block after 512 sent messages, while the
receiver only has registered 511 read messages. Hence, the legacy
receiver is not trigged to send an acknowledge, with a permanently
blocked sender as result.

We solve this deadlock by simply allowing the sender to send one more
message before it blocks, i.e., by a making minimal change to the
condition used for determining connection congestion.

gcc-7 detects a short memset in mvpp2, introduced in the original

drivers/net/ethernet/marvell/mvpp2.c:3296:2: error: 'memset' used with length equal to number of elements without multiplication by element size [-Werror=memset-elt-size]

The result seems to be that we write uninitialized data into the
flow table registers, although we did not get any warning about
that uninitialized data usage.

Using sizeof() lets us initialize then entire array instead.

In commit 35c55c98

 ("tipc: add neighbor monitoring framework") we
added a data area to the link monitor STATE messages under the
assumption that previous versions did not use any such data area.

For versions older than Linux 4.3 this assumption is not correct. In
those version, all STATE messages sent out from a node inadvertently
contain a 16 byte data area containing a string; -a leftover from
previous RESET messages which were using this during the setup phase.
This string serves no purpose in STATE messages, and should no be there.

Unfortunately, this data area is delivered to the link monitor
framework, where a sanity check catches that it is not a correct domain
record, and drops it. It also issues a rate limited warning about the
event.

Since such events occur much more frequently than anticipated, we now
choose to remove the warning in order to not fill the kernel log with
useless contents. We also make the sanity check stricter, to further
reduce the risk that such data is inavertently admitted.

commit 81729810

 ("tipc: fix link priority propagation") introduced a
compatibility problem between TIPC versions newer than Linux 4.6 and
those older than Linux 4.4. In versions later than 4.4, link STATE
messages only contain a non-zero link priority value when the sender
wants the receiver to change its priority. This has the effect that the
receiver resets itself in order to apply the new priority. This works
well, and is consistent with the said commit.

However, in versions older than 4.4 a valid link priority is present in
all sent link STATE messages, leading to cyclic link establishment and
reset on the 4.6+ node.

We fix this by adding a test that the received value should not only
be valid, but also differ from the current value in order to cause the
receiving link endpoint to reset.

Pull parisc fixes from Helge Deller:
 "On parisc we were still seeing occasional random segmentation faults
  and memory corruption on SMP machines. Dave Anglin then looked again
  at the TLB related code and found two issues in the PCI DMA and
  generic TLB flush functions.

  Then, in our startup code we had some timing of the cache and TLB
  functions to calculate a threshold when to use a complete TLB/cache
  flush or just to flush a specific range. This code produced a race
  with newly started CPUs and thus lead to occasional kernel crashes
  (due to stale TLB/cache entries). The patch by Dave fixes this issue
  by flushing the local caches before starting secondary CPUs and by
  removing the race.

  The last problem fixed by this series is that we quite often suffered
  from hung tasks and self-detected stalls on the CPUs. It was somehow
  clear that this was related to the (in v4.7) newly introduced cr16
  clocksource and the own implementation of sched_clock(). I replaced
  the open-coded sched_clock() function and switched to the generic
  sched_clock() implementation which seems to have fixed this isse as
  well.

This is the second issue I noticed in reviewing the parisc TLB code.

The fic instruction may use either the instruction or data TLB in
flushing the instruction cache.  Thus, on machines with a split TLB, we
should also flush the data TLB after setting up the temporary alias
registers.

Although this has no functional impact, I changed the pdtlb and pitlb
instructions to consistently use the index register %r0.  These
instructions do not support integer displacements.
