Sebastian Hesselbarth says: ==================== This patch set comprises some one-liners to fix issues with repeated loading and unloading of a modular mv643xx_eth driver. First two patches take care of the periodic port statistic timer, that updates statistics by reading port registers using add_timer/mod_timer. Patch 1 moves timer re-schedule from mib_counters_update to the timer callback. As mib_counters_update is also called from non-timer context, this ensures the timer is reactivated from timer context only. Patch 2 moves initial timer schedule from _probe() time to right before the port is actually started as the corresponding del_timer_sync is at _stop() time. This fixes a regression, where unloading the driver from a non-started eth device can cause the timer to access deallocated mem. Patch 3 adds an assignment of the ports device_node to the corresponding self-created platform_device. This is required to allow fixups based on the device_node's compatible string later. Actually, it is also a potential regression because we already check compatible string for Kirkwood, but does not (yet) rely on the fixup. All patches are based on v3.12-rc3 and have been tested on Kirkwood-based Seagate Dockstar. Patches 1 and 2 can also possibly queued up for -stable. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

DT-based mv643xx_eth probes and creates platform_devices for the port devices on its own. To allow fixups for ports based on the device_node, we need to set .of_node of the corresponding device with the correct node.

The periodic statistics timer gets started at port _probe() time, but is stopped on _stop() only. In a modular environment, this can cause the timer to access already deallocated memory, if the module is unloaded without starting the eth device. To fix this, we add the timer right before the port is started, instead of at _probe() time.

Each port driver installs a periodic timer to update port statistics by calling mib_counters_update. As mib_counters_update is also called from non-timer context, we should not reschedule the timer there but rather move it to timer-only context.

tcp_established_options assumes opts->options is 0 before calling, as it read modify writes it. For the tcp_current_mss() case the opts structure is not zeroed, so this can be done with uninitialized values. This is ok, because ->options is not read in this path. But it's still better to avoid the operation on the uninitialized field. This shuts up a static code analyzer, and presumably may help the optimizer.

eee_get_cur assumes that the output data is already zeroed. It can read-modify-write the advertised field: if (ipcnfg & E1000_IPCNFG_EEE_100M_AN) 2594 edata->advertised |= ADVERTISED_100baseT_Full; This is ok for the normal ethtool eee_get call, which always zeroes the input data before. But eee_set_cur also calls eee_get_cur and it did not zero the input field. Later on it then compares agsinst the field, which can contain partial stack garbage. Zero the input field in eee_set_cur() too.

Highbank and Midway xgmac h/w have different number of MAC address filter registers with 7 and 31, respectively. Highbank has been wrong, so fix it and detect the number of filter registers at run-time. Unfortunately, the version register is the same on both SOCs, so simply test if write to the last filter register will take a value. It always reads as 0 if not.

In commit 2ee68f62 (net: calxedaxgmac: fix various errors in xgmac_set_rx_mode), a fix to clean-up old address entries was added. However, the loop to zero out the entries failed to increment the register address resulting in only 1 entry getting cleared. Fix this to correctly use the loop index.

FQ rate limiting suffers from two problems, reported by Steinar : 1) FQ enforces a delay when flow quantum is exhausted in order to reduce cpu overhead. But if packets are small, current delay computation is slightly wrong, and observed rates can be too high. Steinar had this problem because he disabled TSO and GSO, and default FQ quantum is 2*1514. (Of course, I wish recent TSO auto sizing changes will help to not having to disable TSO in the first place) 2) maxrate was not used for forwarded flows (skbs not attached to a socket) Tested: tc qdisc add dev eth0 root est 1sec 4sec fq maxrate 8Mbit netperf -H lpq84 -l 1000 & sleep 10 ; tc -s qdisc show dev eth0 qdisc fq 8003: root refcnt 32 limit 10000p flow_limit 100p buckets 1024 quantum 3028 initial_quantum 15140 maxrate 8000Kbit Sent 16819357 bytes 11258 pkt (dropped 0, overlimits 0 requeues 0) rate 7831Kbit 653pps backlog 7570b 5p requeues 0 44 flows (43 inactive, 1 throttled), next packet delay 2977352 ns 0 gc, 0 highprio, 5545 throttled lpq83:~# tcpdump -p -i eth0 host lpq84 -c 12 09:02:52.079484 IP lpq83 > lpq84: . 1389536928:1389538376(1448) ack 3808678021 win 457 <nop,nop,timestamp 961812 572609068> 09:02:52.079499 IP lpq83 > lpq84: . 1448:2896(1448) ack 1 win 457 <nop,nop,timestamp 961812 572609068> 09:02:52.079906 IP lpq84 > lpq83: . ack 2896 win 16384 <nop,nop,timestamp 572609080 961812> 09:02:52.082568 IP lpq83 > lpq84: . 2896:4344(1448) ack 1 win 457 <nop,nop,timestamp 961815 572609071> 09:02:52.082581 IP lpq83 > lpq84: . 4344:5792(1448) ack 1 win 457 <nop,nop,timestamp 961815 572609071> 09:02:52.083017 IP lpq84 > lpq83: . ack 5792 win 16384 <nop,nop,timestamp 572609083 961815> 09:02:52.085678 IP lpq83 > lpq84: . 5792:7240(1448) ack 1 win 457 <nop,nop,timestamp 961818 572609074> 09:02:52.085693 IP lpq83 > lpq84: . 7240:8688(1448) ack 1 win 457 <nop,nop,timestamp 961818 572609074> 09:02:52.086117 IP lpq84 > lpq83: . ack 8688 win 16384 <nop,nop,timestamp 572609086 961818> 09:02:52.088792 IP lpq83 > lpq84: . 8688:10136(1448) ack 1 win 457 <nop,nop,timestamp 961821 572609077> 09:02:52.088806 IP lpq83 > lpq84: . 10136:11584(1448) ack 1 win 457 <nop,nop,timestamp 961821 572609077> 09:02:52.089217 IP lpq84 > lpq83: . ack 11584 win 16384 <nop,nop,timestamp 572609090 961821> Reported-by: Steinar H.

We might extend the used aera of a skb beyond the total headroom when we install the ipip header. Fix this by calling skb_cow_head() unconditionally. Bug was introduced with commit c5441932 ("GRE: Refactor GRE tunneling code.")

Pablo Neira Ayuso says: ==================== The following patchset contains Netfilter/IPVS fixes for your net tree, they are: * Fix BUG_ON splat due to malformed TCP packets seen by synproxy, from Patrick McHardy. * Fix possible weight overflow in lblc and lblcr schedulers due to 32-bits arithmetics, from Simon Kirby. * Fix possible memory access race in the lblc and lblcr schedulers, introduced when it was converted to use RCU, two patches from Julian Anastasov. * Fix hard dependency on CPU 0 when reading per-cpu stats in the rate estimator, from Julian Anastasov. * Fix race that may lead to object use after release, when invoking ipvsadm -C && ipvsadm -R, introduced when adding RCU, from Julian Anastasov. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

The dma descriptors indexes are only initialized on the probe function. If a packet is on the buffer when temac_stop is called, the dma descriptors indexes can be left on a incorrect state where no other package can be sent. So an interface could be left in an usable state after ifdow/ifup. This patch makes sure that the descriptors indexes are in a proper status when the device is open.

It is possible for the timer handlers to run after the call to ipv6_mc_down so use in6_dev_put instead of __in6_dev_put in the handler function in order to do proper cleanup when the refcnt reaches 0. Otherwise, the refcnt can reach zero without the inet6_dev being destroyed and we end up leaking a reference to the net_device and see messages like the following, unregister_netdevice: waiting for eth0 to become free. Usage count = 1 Tested on linux-3.4.43. Signed-off-by: Salam Noureddine <noureddine@aristanetworks.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
