can: dev: fix skb drop check

In commit a6d190f8c767 ("can: skb: drop tx skb if in listen only
mode") the priv->ctrlmode element is read even on virtual CAN
interfaces that do not create the struct can_priv at startup. This
out-of-bounds read may lead to CAN frame drops for virtual CAN
interfaces like vcan and vxcan.

This patch mainly reverts the original commit and adds a new helper
for CAN interface drivers that provide the required information in
struct can_priv.

can: tree-wide: advertise software timestamping capabilities

Currently, some CAN drivers support hardware timestamping, some do
not. But userland has no method to query which features are supported
(aside maybe of getting RX messages and observe whether or not
hardware timestamps stay at zero).

The canonical way for a network driver to advertised what kind of
timestamping it supports is to implement ethtool_ops::get_ts_info().

This patch only targets the CAN drivers which *do not* support
hardware timestamping. For each of those CAN drivers, implement the
get_ts_info() using the generic ethtool_op_get_ts_info().

This way, userland can do:

| $ ethtool --show-time-stamping canX

to confirm the device timestamping capacities.

N.B. the drivers which support hardware timestamping will be migrated
in separate patches.

spi: make remove callback a void function

The value returned by an spi driver's remove function is mostly ignored.
(Only an error message is printed if the value is non-zero that the
error is ignored.)

So change the prototype of the remove function to return no value. This
way driver authors are not tempted to assume that passing an error to
the upper layer is a good idea. All drivers are adapted accordingly.
There is no intended change of behaviour, all callbacks were prepared to
return 0 before.

# cc4b08c3 07-Dec-2021 Vincent Mailhol <mailhol.vincent@wanadoo.fr>

can: do not increase tx_bytes statistics for RTR frames

The actual payload length of the CAN Remote Transmission Request (RTR)
frames is always 0, i.e. no payload is transmitted on the wire.
However, those RTR frames still use the DLC to indicate the length of
the requested frame.

As such, net_device_stats::tx_bytes should not be increased when
sending RTR frames.

The function can_get_echo_skb() already returns the correct length,
even for RTR frames (c.f. [1]). However, for historical reasons, the
drivers do not use can_get_echo_skb()'s return value and instead, most
of them store a temporary length (or dlc) in some local structure or
array. Using the return value of can_get_echo_skb() solves the
issue. After doing this, such length/dlc fields become unused and so
this patch does the adequate cleaning when needed.

This patch fixes all the CAN drivers.

Finally, can_get_echo_skb() is decorated with the __must_check
attribute in order to force future drivers to correctly use its return
value (else the compiler would emit a warning).

fix real payload length return value for RTR frames")

can: hi311x: Use level-triggered interrupt

If the hi3110 shares the SPI bus with another traffic-intensive device
and packets are received in high volume (by a separate machine sending
with "cangen -g 0 -i -x"), reception stops after a few minutes and the
counter in /proc/interrupts stops incrementing. Bus state is "active".
Bringing the interface down and back up reconvenes the reception. The
issue is not observed when the hi3110 is the sole device on the SPI bus.

Using a level-triggered interrupt makes the issue go away and lets the
hi3110 successfully receive 2 GByte over the course of 5 days while a
ks8851 Ethernet chip on the same SPI bus handles 6 GByte of traffic.

Unfortunately the hi3110 datasheet is mum on the trigger type. The pin
description on page 3 only specifies the polarity (active high):

# 32bee8f4 09-May-2018 Lukas Wunner <lukas@wunner.de>

can: hi311x: Work around TX complete interrupt erratum

When sending packets as fast as possible using "cangen -g 0 -i -x", the
HI-3110 occasionally latches the interrupt pin high on completion of a
packet, but doesn't set the TXCPLT bit in the INTF register. The INTF
register contains 0x00 as if no interrupt has occurred. Even waiting
for a few milliseconds after the interrupt doesn't help.

Work around this apparent erratum by instead checking the TXMTY bit in
the STATF register ("TX FIFO empty"). We know that we've queued up a
packet for transmission if priv->tx_len is nonzero. If the TX FIFO is
empty, transmission of that packet must have completed.

Note that this is congruent with our handling of received packets, which
likewise gleans from the STATF register whether a packet is waiting in
the RX FIFO, instead of looking at the INTF register.

agetty listens to netlink messages in order to update the login prompt
when IP addresses change (if /etc/issue contains \4 or \6 escape codes):

It's a useful feature, though it seems questionable that it causes CAN
bit error statistics to be queried.

Be that as it may, if hi3110_get_berr_counter() is invoked while a frame
is sent by hi3110_hw_tx(), bogus SPI transfers like the following may
occur:

=> 12 00 (hi3110_get_berr_counter() wanted to transmit
EC 00 to query the transmit error counter,
but the first byte was overwritten by
hi3110_hw_tx_frame())

=> EA 00 3E 80 01 FB (hi3110_hw_tx_frame() wanted to transmit a
frame, but the first byte was overwritten by
hi3110_get_berr_counter() because it wanted
to query the receive error counter)

This sequence hangs the transmission because the driver believes it has
sent a frame and waits for the interrupt signaling completion, but in
reality the chip has never sent away the frame since the commands it
received were malformed.

Fix by acquiring the SPI lock in hi3110_get_berr_counter().

I've scrutinized the entire driver for further unlocked SPI accesses but
found no others.

# 57e83fb9 17-Mar-2017 Akshay Bhat <akshay.bhat@timesys.com>

can: hi311x: Add Holt HI-311x CAN driver

This patch adds support for the Holt HI-311x CAN controller. The HI311x
CAN controller is capable of transmitting and receiving standard data
frames, extended data frames and remote frames. The HI311x interfaces
with the host over SPI.
