net: stmmac: fix the crash issue for zero copy XDP_TX action

There is a crash issue when running zero copy XDP_TX action, the crash log is shown below.

[ 216.122464] Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address fffeffff80000000 [ 216.187524] Internal error: Oops: 0000000096000144 [#1] SMP [ 216.301694] Call trace: [ 216.304130] dcache_clean_poc+0x20/0x38 (P) [ 216.308308] __dma_sync_single_for_device+0x1bc/0x1e0 [ 216.313351] stmmac_xdp_xmit_xdpf+0x354/0x400 [ 216.317701] __stmmac_xdp_run_prog+0x164/0x368 [ 216.322139] stmmac_napi_poll_rxtx+0xba8/0xf00 [ 216.326576] __napi_poll+0x40/0x218 [ 216.408054] Kernel panic - not syncing: Oops: Fatal exception in interrupt

For XDP_TX action, the xdp_buff is converted to xdp_frame by xdp_convert_buff_to_frame(). The memory type of the resulting xdp_frame depends on the memory type of the xdp_buff. For page pool based xdp_buff it produces xdp_frame with memory type MEM_TYPE_PAGE_POOL. For zero copy XSK pool based xdp_buff it produces xdp_frame with memory type MEM_TYPE_PAGE_ORDER0. However, stmmac_xdp_xmit_back() does not check the memory type and always uses the page pool type, this leads to invalid mappings and causes the crash. Therefore, check the xdp_buff memory type in stmmac_xdp_xmit_back() to fix this issue.

USN-8177-1 — linux, linux-realtime vulnerabilities

Affected: Ubuntu:25.10: linux, Ubuntu:25.10: linux-realtime

Josh Eads, Kristoffer Janke, Eduardo Vela Nava, Tavis Ormandy, and Matteo Rizzo discovered that some AMD Zen processors did not properly verify the signature of CPU microcode. This flaw is known as EntrySign. A privileged attacker could possibly use this issue to cause load malicious CPU microcode causing loss of integrity and confidentiality. (CVE-2024-36347)

Several security issues were discovered in the Linux kernel. An attacker could possibly use these to compromise the system. This update corrects flaws in the following subsystems: - MIPS architecture; - PowerPC architecture; - User-Mode Linux (UML); - x86 architecture; - Block layer subsystem; - Cryptographic API; - ACPI drivers; - Ublk userspace block driver; - Bluetooth drivers; - Character device driver; - TPM device driver; - Clock framework and drivers; - GPU drivers; - Hardware monitoring drivers; - Intel Trace Hub HW tracing drivers; - InfiniBand drivers; - Input Device core drivers; - Input Device (Mouse) drivers; - IOMMU subsystem; - Multiple devices driver; - Media drivers; - Network drivers; - Mellanox network drivers; - STMicroelectronics network drivers; - Ethernet team driver; - PA-RISC drivers; - Chrome hardware platform drivers; - x86 platform drivers; - SCSI subsystem; - SPI subsystem; - TCM subsystem; - Freescale USB OTG Transceiver Driver; - USB Type-C Connector System Software Interface driver; - Watchdog drivers; - BTRFS file sy…
