jhash_1word of a u16 is a different value from jhash of the same u16 with length 2. Since elements are always inserted in sets using jhash over the actual klen, this would lead to incorrect lookups on fixed-size sets with a key length of 2, as they would be inserted with hash value jhash(key, 2) and looked up with hash value jhash_1word(key), which is different. Example reproducer(v4.13+), using anonymous sets which always have a fixed size: table inet t { chain c { type filter hook output priority 0; policy accept; tcp dport { 10001, 10003, 10005, 10007, 10009 } counter packets 4 bytes 240 reject tcp dport 10001 counter packets 4 bytes 240 reject tcp dport 10003 counter packets 4 bytes 240 reject tcp dport 10005 counter packets 4 bytes 240 reject tcp dport 10007 counter packets 0 bytes 0 reject tcp dport 10009 counter packets 4 bytes 240 reject } } then use nc -z localhost <port> to probe; incorrectly hashed ports will pass through the set lookup and increment the counter of an individual rule. jhash being seeded with a random value, it is not deterministic which ports will incorrectly hash, but in testing with 5 ports in the set I always had 4 or 5 with an incorrect hash value.

Commit f1174f77 ("bpf/verifier: rework value tracking") removed the crafty selection of which pointer types are allowed to be modified. This is OK for most pointer types since adjust_ptr_min_max_vals() will catch operations on immutable pointers. One exception is PTR_TO_CTX which is now allowed to be offseted freely. The intent of aforementioned commit was to allow context access via modified registers. The offset passed to ->is_valid_access() verifier callback has been adjusted by the value of the variable offset. What is missing, however, is taking the variable offset into account when the context register is used. Or in terms of the code adding the offset to the value passed to the ->convert_ctx_access() callback. This leads to the following eBPF user code: r1 += 68 r0 = *(u32 *)(r1 + 8) exit being translated to this in kernel space: 0: (07) r1 += 68 1: (61) r0 = *(u32 *)(r1 +180) 2: (95) exit Offset 8 is corresponding to 180 in the kernel, but offset 76 is valid too. Verifier will "accept" access to offset 68+8=76 but then "convert" access to offset 8 as 180. Effective access to offset 248 is beyond the kernel context. (This is a __sk_buff example on a debug-heavy kernel - packet mark is 8 -> 180, 76 would be data.) Dereferencing the modified context pointer is not as easy as dereferencing other types, because we have to translate the access to reading a field in kernel structures which is usually at a different offset and often of a different size. To allow modifying the pointer we would have to make sure that given eBPF instruction will always access the same field or the fields accessed are "compatible" in terms of offset and size... Disallow dereferencing modified context pointers and add to selftests the test case described here.

It seems that it's possible to toggle NETLINK_F_EXT_ACK through setsockopt() while another thread/CPU is building a message inside netlink_ack(), which could then trigger the WARN_ON()s I added since if it goes from being turned off to being turned on between allocating and filling the message, the skb could end up being too small. Avoid this whole situation by storing the value of this flag in a separate variable and using that throughout the function instead.

When an EMAD is transmitted, a timeout work item is scheduled with a delay of 200ms, so that another EMAD will be retried until a maximum of five retries. In certain situations, it's possible for the function waiting on the EMAD to be associated with a work item that is queued on the same workqueue (`mlxsw_core`) as the timeout work item. This results in flushing a work item on the same workqueue. According to commit e159489b ("workqueue: relax lockdep annotation on flush_work()") the above may lead to a deadlock in case the workqueue has only one worker active or if the system in under memory pressure and the rescue worker is in use. The latter explains the very rare and random nature of the lockdep splats we have been seeing: [ 52.730240] ============================================ [ 52.736179] WARNING: possible recursive locking detected [ 52.742119] 4.14.0-rc3jiri+ #4 Not tainted [ 52.746697] -------------------------------------------- [ 52.752635] kworker/1:3/599 is trying to acquire lock: [ 52.758378] (mlxsw_core_driver_name){+.+.}, at: [<ffffffff811c4fa4>] flush_work+0x3a4/0x5e0 [ 52.767837] but task is already holding lock: [ 52.774360] (mlxsw_core_driver_name){+.+.}, at: [<ffffffff811c65c4>] process_one_work+0x7d4/0x12f0 [ 52.784495] other info that might help us debug this: [ 52.791794] Possible unsafe locking scenario: [ 52.798413] CPU0 [ 52.801144] ---- [ 52.803875] lock(mlxsw_core_driver_name); [ 52.808556] lock(mlxsw_core_driver_name); [ 52.813236] *** DEADLOCK *** [ 52.819857] May be due to missing lock nesting notation [ 52.827450] 3 locks held by kworker/1:3/599: [ 52.832221] #0: (mlxsw_core_driver_name){+.+.}, at: [<ffffffff811c65c4>] process_one_work+0x7d4/0x12f0 [ 52.842846] #1: ((&(&bridge->fdb_notify.dw)->work)){+.+.}, at: [<ffffffff811c65c4>] process_one_work+0x7d4/0x12f0 [ 52.854537] #2: (rtnl_mutex){+.+.}, at: [<ffffffff822ad8e7>] rtnl_lock+0x17/0x20 [ 52.863021] stack backtrace: [ 52.867890] CPU: 1 PID: 599 Comm: kworker/1:3 Not tainted 4.14.0-rc3jiri+ #4 [ 52.875773] Hardware name: Mellanox Technologies Ltd.

Commit 7091d8c7 '(net/sched: cls_flower: Add offload support using egress Hardware device') made sure (when fl_hw_replace_filter is called) to put the egress_dev mark on persisent structure instance. Hence, following calls into the HW driver for stats and deletion will note it and act accordingly. With commit de4784ca this property is lost and hence when called, the HW driver failes to operate (stats, delete) on the offloaded flow. Fix it by setting the egress_dev flag whenever the ingress device is different from the hw device since this is exactly the condition under which we're calling into the HW driver through the egress port net-device.

register_netdevice() could fail early when we have an invalid dev name, in which case ->ndo_uninit() is not called. For tun device, this is a problem because a timer etc. are already initialized and it expects ->ndo_uninit() to clean them up. We could move these initializations into a ->ndo_init() so that register_netdevice() knows better, however this is still complicated due to the logic in tun_detach(). Therefore, I choose to just call dev_get_valid_name() before register_netdevice(), which is quicker and much easier to audit. And for this specific case, it is already enough.

IFLA_IFALIAS is defined as NLA_STRING. It means that the minimal length of the attribute is 1 ("\0"). However, to remove an alias, the attribute length must be 0 (see dev_set_alias()). Let's define the type to NLA_BINARY to allow 0-length string, so that the alias can be removed.

Xin Long says: ==================== rtnetlink: a bunch of fixes for userspace notifications in changing dev properties Whenever any property of a link, address, route, etc. changes by whatever way, kernel should notify the programs that listen for such events in userspace. The patchet "rtnetlink: Cleanup user notifications for netdev events" tried to fix a redundant notifications issue, but it also introduced a side effect. After that, user notifications could only be sent when changing dev properties via netlink api. As it removed some events process in rtnetlink_event where the notifications was sent to users. It resulted in no notification generated when dev properties are changed via other ways, like ioctl, sysfs, etc. It may cause some user programs doesn't work as expected because of the missing notifications. This patchset will fix it by bringing some of these netdev events back and also fix the old redundant notifications issue with a proper way. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

When a key is reinstalled we can reset the replay counters etc. which can lead to nonce reuse and/or replay detection being impossible, breaking security properties, as described in the "KRACK attacks". In particular, CVE-2017-13080 applies to GTK rekeying that happened in firmware while the host is in D3, with the second part of the attack being done after the host wakes up. In this case, the wpa_supplicant mitigation isn't sufficient since wpa_supplicant doesn't know the GTK material. In case this happens, simply silently accept the new key coming from userspace but don't take any action on it since it's the same key; this keeps the PN replay counters intact.

Link status query firmware messages originating from the VFs are forwarded to the PF. The driver handles these interactions in a workqueue for the VF and PF. The VF driver waits for the response from the PF in the workqueue. If the PF and VF driver are running on the same host and the work for both PF and VF are queued on the same workqueue, the VF driver may not get the response if the PF work item is queued behind it on the same workqueue. This will lead to the VF link query message timing out. To prevent this, we create a private workqueue for PFs instead of using the common workqueue. The VF query and PF response will never be on the same workqueue. Fixes: c0c050c5 ("bnxt_en: New Broadcom ethernet driver.")

The 88E6060 Ethernet switch always transmits the multicast bit of the switch MAC address as a zero. It re-uses the corresponding bit 8 of the register "Switch MAC Address Register Bytes 0 & 1" for "DiffAddr". If the "DiffAddr" bit is 0, then all ports transmit the same source address. If it is set to 1, then bit 2:0 are used for the port number. The mv88e6060 driver is currently wrongly shifting the MAC address byte 0 by 9. To fix this, shift it by 8 as usual and clear its bit 0.

Currently we drop any new VLAN ids if there are more than the current (or last used) channel can support. Most importantly this is a problem if no channel has been selected yet, resulting in a segfault. Secondly this does not necessarily reflect the capabilities of any other channels. Instead only drop a new VLAN id if we are already tracking the maximum allowed by the NCSI specification. Per-channel limits are already handled by ncsi_add_filter(), but add a message to set_one_vid() to make it obvious that the channel can not support any more VLAN ids.

rtl_init_one() currently enables PCI wakeups if the ethernet device is found to be WOL-capable. There is no need to do this when rtl8169_set_wol() will correctly enable or disable the same wakeup flag when WOL is activated/deactivated. This works around an ACPI DSDT bug which prevents the Acer laptop models Aspire ES1-533, Aspire ES1-732, PackardBell ENTE69AP and Gateway NE533 from entering S3 suspend - even when no ethernet cable is connected. On these platforms, the DSDT says that GPE08 is a wakeup source for ethernet, but this GPE fires as soon as the system goes into suspend, waking the system up immediately. Having the wakeup normally disabled avoids this issue in the default case. With this change, WOL will continue to be unusable on these platforms (it will instantly wake up if WOL is later enabled by the user) but we do not expect this to be a commonly used feature on these consumer laptops. We have separately determined that WOL works fine without any ACPI GPEs enabled during sleep, so a DSDT fix or override would be possible to make WOL work.

If for some reason, the newly allocated child need to be freed, we will call cgroup_put() (via sk_free_unlock_clone()) while the corresponding cgroup_get() was not yet done, and we will free memory too soon.

This reverts commit fbb1fb4a. This was not the proper fix, lets cleanly revert it, so that following patch can be carried to stable versions. sock_cgroup_ptr() callers do not expect a NULL return value.

Jakub Kicinski says: ==================== nfp: fix ethtool stats and page allocation Two fixes for net. First one makes sure we handle gather of stats on 32bit machines correctly (ouch). The second fix solves a potential NULL-deref if we fail to allocate a page with XDP running. I used Fixes: tags pointing to where the bug was introduced, but for patch 1 it has been in the driver "for ever" and fix won't backport cleanly beyond commit 325945ed ("nfp: split software and hardware vNIC statistics") which is in net. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.
