[Intel-wired-lan] [PATCH net 00/13] ptp: Validate the ancillary ioctl flags more carefully.

[Richard Cochran]

The flags passed to the ioctls for periodic output signals and
time stamping of external signals were never checked, and thus formed
a useless ABI inadvertently.  More recently, a version 2 of the ioctls
was introduced in order make the flags meaningful.  This series
tightens up the checks on the new ioctl flags.

- Patch 1 ensures at least one edge flag is set for the new ioctl.
- Patches 2-7 are Jacob's recent checks, picking up the tags.
- Patch 8 introduces a "strict" flag for passing to the drivers when the
  new ioctl is used.
- Patches 9-12 implement the "strict" checking in the drivers.
- Patch 13 extends the test program to exercise combinations of flags.

Jacob Keller (6):
  net: reject PTP periodic output requests with unsupported flags
  mv88e6xxx: reject unsupported external timestamp flags
  dp83640: reject unsupported external timestamp flags
  igb: reject unsupported external timestamp flags
  mlx5: reject unsupported external timestamp flags
  renesas: reject unsupported external timestamp flags

Richard Cochran (7):
  ptp: Validate requests to enable time stamping of external signals.
  ptp: Introduce strict checking of external time stamp options.
  mv88e6xxx: Reject requests to enable time stamping on both edges.
  dp83640: Reject requests to enable time stamping on both edges.
  igb: Reject requests that fail to enable time stamping on both edges.
  mlx5: Reject requests to enable time stamping on both edges.
  ptp: Extend the test program to check the external time stamp flags.
