Michal Kubecek says: ==================== macvlan: disable LRO on lowerdev instead of a macvlan A customer of ours encountered a problem with LRO on an ixgbe network card. Analysis showed that it was a known conflict of forwarding and LRO but the forwarding was enabled in an LXC container where only a macvlan was, not the ethernet device itself. I believe the solution is exactly the same as what we do for "normal" (802.1q) VLAN devices: if dev_disable_lro() is called for such device, LRO is disabled on the underlying "real" device instead. v2: adapt to changes merged from net-next v3: use BUG() in macvlan_dev_real_dev() if compiled without macvlan ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

A macvlan device has always LRO disabled so that calling dev_disable_lro() on it does nothing. If we need to disable LRO e.g. because - the macvlan device is inserted into a bridge - IPv6 forwarding is enabled for it - it is in a different namespace than lowerdev and IPv4 forwarding is enabled in it we need to disable LRO on its underlying device instead (as we do for 802.1q VLAN devices). v2: use newly introduced netif_is_macvlan() Signed-off-by: Michal Kubecek <mkubecek@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: David S.

I met a Bug when I add ip target with the wrong ip address: echo +500.500.500.500 > /sys/class/net/bond0/bonding/arp_ip_target the wrong ip address will transfor to 245.245.245.244 and add to the ip target success, it is uncorrect, so I add checks to avoid adding wrong address. The in4_pton() will set wrong ip address to 0.0.0.0, it will return by the next check and will not add to ip target. v2 According Veaceslav's opinion, simplify the code. v3 According Veaceslav's opinion, add broadcast check and make a micro definition to package it. v4 Solve the problem of the format which David point out.

If priority/traffic class field in IPv6 header is set (seen when using ssh), the uncompression sets the TC and Flow fields incorrectly. Example: This is IPv6 header of a sent packet. Note the priority/TC (=1) in the first byte. 00000000: 61 00 00 00 00 2c 06 40 fe 80 00 00 00 00 00 00 00000010: 02 02 72 ff fe c6 42 10 fe 80 00 00 00 00 00 00 00000020: 02 1e ab ff fe 4c 52 57 This gets compressed like this in the sending side 00000000: 72 31 04 06 02 1e ab ff fe 4c 52 57 ec c2 00 16 00000010: aa 2d fe 92 86 4e be c6 ....

Commit 2613af0e ("virtio_net: migrate mergeable rx buffers to page frag allocators") changed the mergeable receive buffer size from PAGE_SIZE to MTU-size. However, the merge buffer size does not take into account the size of the virtio-net header. Consequently, packets that are MTU-size will take two buffers intead of one (to store the virtio-net header), substantially decreasing the throughput of MTU-size traffic due to TCP window / SKB truesize effects. This commit changes the mergeable buffer size to include the virtio-net header. The buffer size is cacheline-aligned because skb_page_frag_refill will not automatically align the requested size. Benchmarks taken from an average of 5 netperf 30-second TCP_STREAM runs between two QEMU VMs on a single physical machine. Each VM has two VCPUs and vhost enabled. All VMs and vhost threads run in a single 4 CPU cgroup cpuset, using cgroups to ensure that other processes in the system will not be scheduled on the benchmark CPUs. Transmit offloads and mergeable receive buffers are enabled, but guest_tso4 / guest_csum are explicitly disabled to force MTU-sized packets on the receiver. next-net trunk before 2613af0e (PAGE_SIZE buf): 3861.08Gb/s net-next trunk (MTU 1500- packet uses two buf due to size bug): 4076.62Gb/s net-next trunk (MTU 1480- packet fits in one buf): 6301.34Gb/s net-next trunk w/ size fix (MTU 1500 - packet fits in one buf): 6445.44Gb/s Suggested-by: Eric Northup <digitaleric@google.com> Signed-off-by: Michael Dalton <mwdalton@google.com> Acked-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

In af3e095a, Erik Jacobsen fixed one type of unaligned access bug for ia64 by converting a 64-bit write to use put_unaligned(). Unfortunately, since gcc will convert a short memset() to a series of appropriately-aligned stores, the problem is now visible again on tilegx, where the memset that zeros out proc_event is converted to three 64-bit stores, causing an unaligned access panic. A better fix for the original problem is to ensure that proc_event is aligned to 8 bytes here. We can do that relatively easily by arranging to start the struct cn_msg aligned to 8 bytes and then offset by 4 bytes. Doing so means that the immediately following proc_event structure is then correctly aligned to 8 bytes. The result is that the memset() stores are now aligned, and as an added benefit, we can remove the put_unaligned() calls in the code.

Most users already use an array thanks to genl_register_family_with_ops(), so convert the remaining ones allowing us to get rid of the list head in each op. Also make them const, this just makes sense at that point and the security people like making function pointers const as well :-) ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

To save some space in the struct on 32-bit systems, make the flags a u8 (only 4 bits are used) and also move them to the end of the struct.

Instead of using a linked list, use an array. This reduces the data size needed by the users of genetlink, for example in wireless (net/wireless/nl80211.c) on 64-bit it frees up over 1K of data space. Remove the attempted sending of CTRL_CMD_NEWOPS ctrl event since genl_ctrl_event(CTRL_CMD_NEWOPS, ...) only returns -EINVAL anyway, therefore no such event could ever be sent.

Bug has been introduced by commit bb814094 ("ip6tnl: allow to use rtnl ops on fb tunnel"). When ip6_tunnel.ko is unloaded, FB device is delete by rtnl_link_unregister() and then we try to use the pointer in ip6_tnl_destroy_tunnels(). Let's add an handler for dellink, which will never remove the FB tunnel. With this patch it will no more be possible to remove it via 'ip link del ip6tnl0', but it's safer.

When a link local address was added to a sit interface, the corresponding route was not configured. This breaks routing protocols that use the link local address, like OSPFv3. To ease the code reading, I remove sit_route_add(), which only adds v4 mapped routes, and add this kind of route directly in sit_add_v4_addrs(). Thus link local and v4 mapped routes are configured in the same place.

Bug: The fallback device is created in sit_init_net and assumed to be freed in sit_exit_net. First, it is dereferenced in that function, in sit_destroy_tunnels: struct net *net = dev_net(sitn->fb_tunnel_dev); Prior to this, rtnl_unlink_register has removed all devices that match rtnl_link_ops == sit_link_ops. Commit 205983c4 added the line + sitn->fb_tunnel_dev->rtnl_link_ops = &sit_link_ops; which cases the fallback device to match here and be freed before it is last dereferenced. Fix: This commit adds an explicit .delllink callback to sit_link_ops that skips deallocation at rtnl_unlink_register for the fallback device. This mechanism is comparable to the one in ip_tunnel. It also modifies sit_destroy_tunnels and its only caller sit_exit_net to avoid the offending dereference in the first place. That double lookup is more complicated than required. Test: The bug is only triggered when CONFIG_NET_NS is enabled. It causes a GPF only when CONFIG_DEBUG_SLAB is enabled. Verified that this bug exists at the mentioned commit, at davem-net HEAD and at 3.11.y HEAD. Verified that it went away after applying this patch.

When a transport recovers due to the new coming sack, SCTP should iterate all of its transport_list to locate the __two__ most recently used transport and set to active_path and retran_path respectively. The exising code does not find the two properly - In case of the following list: [most-recent] -> [2nd-most-recent] -> ... Both active_path and retran_path would be set to the 1st element. The bug happens when: 1) multi-homing 2) failure/partial_failure transport recovers Both active_path and retran_path would be set to the same most-recent one, in other words, retran_path would not take its role - an end user might not even notice this issue.

This patch partially reverts the change done in tcp_write_xmit() so that the minimal amount is sysctl_tcp_limit_output_bytes. It also remove the use of this sysctl while building skb stored in write queue, as TSO autosizing does the right thing anyway. Users with well behaving NICS and correct qdisc (like sch_fq), can then lower the default sysctl_tcp_limit_output_bytes value from 128KB to 8KB. This new usage of sysctl_tcp_limit_output_bytes permits each driver authors to check how their driver performs when/if the value is set to a minimum of 4KB. Normally, line rate for a single TCP flow should be possible, but some drivers rely on timers to perform TX completion and too long TX completion delays prevent reaching full throughput.

hwtstamp_ioctl() should validate all fields of hwtstamp_config before making any changes. Currently it sets the TX configuration before validating the rx_filter field. Untested as I don't have a cross-compiler to hand. Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <bhutchings@solarflare.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

cpsw_hwtstamp_ioctl() should validate all fields of hwtstamp_config, and the hardware version, before making any changes. Currently it sets the TX configuration before validating the rx_filter field or that the hardware supports timestamping. Also correct the error code for hardware versions that don't support timestamping. ENOTSUPP is used by the NFS implementation and is not part of userland API; we want EOPNOTSUPP (which glibc also calls ENOTSUP, with one 'P'). Untested as I don't have a cross-compiler to hand.
