reqsk_queue_destroy() and reqsk_queue_unlink() should use del_timer_sync() instead of del_timer() before calling reqsk_put(), otherwise we could free a req still used by another cpu. But before doing so, reqsk_queue_destroy() must release syn_wait_lock spinlock or risk a dead lock, as reqsk_timer_handler() might need to take this same spinlock from reqsk_queue_unlink() (called from inet_csk_reqsk_queue_drop()) Fixes: fa76ce73 ("inet: get rid of central tcp/dccp listener timer") Signed-off-by:

If register_netdev() fails we are not propagating the error and we return success because ax_open() succeeded previously. Fix this by checking the return value of ax_open() and register_netdev() and propagate the error in case of failure. Reported-by:

Pablo Neira Ayuso says: ==================== Netfilter fixes for net The following patchset contains five Netfilter fixes for your net tree, they are: 1) Silence a warning on falling back to vmalloc(). Since 88eab472, we can easily hit this warning message, that gets users confused. So let's get rid of it. 2) Recently when porting the template object allocation on top of kmalloc to fix the netns dependencies between x_tables and conntrack, the error checks where left unchanged. Remove IS_ERR() and check for NULL instead. Patch from Dan Carpenter. 3) Don't ignore gfp_flags in the new nf_ct_tmpl_alloc() function, from Joe Stringer. 4) Fix a crash due to NULL pointer dereference in ip6t_SYNPROXY, patch from Phil Sutter. 5) The sequence number of the Syn+ack that is sent from SYNPROXY to clients is not adjusted through our NAT infrastructure, as a result the client may ignore this TCP packet and TCP flow hangs until the client probes us. Also from Phil Sutter. ==================== Signed-off-by:

Yuval Mintz authored
Writing each 4Kb page into flash might take up-to ~100 miliseconds, during which time management firmware cannot acces the nvram for its own uses. Firmware upgrade utility use the ethtool API to burn new flash images for the device via the ethtool API, doing so by writing several page-worth of data on each command. Such action might create problems for the management firmware, as the nvram might not be accessible for a long time. This patch changes the write implementation, releasing the nvram lock on the completion of each page, allowing the management firmware time to claim it and perform its own required actions.

One way, where this could trigger is that the senders NETLINK_CB(skb).portid was wrongly 0 (which is rtnetlink socket), so the rtnl_getlink() request's answer would be sent to the kernel instead to the actual user process, thus grabbing rtnl_mutex() twice. One theory would be that netlink_autobind() triggered via netlink_sendmsg() internally overwrites the -EBUSY error to 0, but where it is wrongly originating from __netlink_insert() instead. That would reset the socket's portid to 0, which is then filled into NETLINK_CB(skb).portid later on. As commit d470e3b4 ("[NETLINK]: Fix two socket hashing bugs.") also puts it, -EBUSY should not be propagated from netlink_insert(). It looks like it's very unlikely to reproduce. We need to trigger the rhashtable_insert_rehash() handler under a situation where rehashing currently occurs (one /rare/ way would be to hit ht->elasticity limits while not filled enough to expand the hashtable, but that would rather require a specifically crafted bind() sequence with knowledge about destination slots, seems unlikely). It probably makes sense to guard __netlink_insert() in any case and remap that error. It was suggested that EOVERFLOW might be better than an already overloaded ENOMEM.

The commit "e29aa339 bna: Enable Multi Buffer RX" moved packets counter increment from the beginning of the NAPI processing loop after the check for erroneous packets so they are never accounted. This counter is used to inform firmware about number of processed completions (packets). As these packets are never acked the firmware fires IRQs for them again and again.

Marcin Wojtas says: ==================== Fixes for the network driver of Marvell Armada 375 SoC This is a set of three patches that fix long-lasting problems implemented in the initial support for the Armada 375 network controller. Due to an inappropriate concept of handling the per-CPU sent packets' processing on TX path the driver numerous problems occured, such as RCU stalls. Those have been fixed, of which details you can find in the commit logs. The patches were intensively tested on top of v4.2-rc5. I'm looking forward to any comments or remarks. ==================== Signed-off-by: -
Marcin Wojtas authored
The PP2 controller is capable of per-CPU TX processing, which means there are per-CPU banked register sets and queues. Current version of the driver supports TX packet coalescing - once on given CPU sent packets amount reaches a threshold value, an IRQ occurs. However, there is a single interrupt line responsible for CPU0/1 TX and RX events (the latter is not per-CPU, the hardware does not support RSS). When the top-half executes the interrupt cause is not known. This is why in NAPI poll function, along with RX processing, IRQ cause register on both CPU's is accessed in order to determine on which of them the TX coalescing threshold might have been reached. Thus the egress processing and releasing the buffers is able to take place on the corresponding CPU. Hitherto approach lead to an illegal usage of on_each_cpu function in softirq context. The problem is solved by resigning from TX coalescing interrupts and separating egress finalization from NAPI processing. For that purpose a method of using hrtimer is introduced. In main transmit function (mvpp2_tx) buffers are released once a software coalescing threshold is reached. In case not all the data is processed a timer is set on this CPU - in its interrupt context a tasklet is scheduled in which all queues are processed. At once only one timer per-CPU can be running, which is controlled by a dedicated flag. This commit removes TX processing from NAPI polling function, disables hardware coalescing and enables hrtimer with tasklet, using new per-CPU port structure (mvpp2_port_pcpu). Signed-off-by:

mvpp2 driver allows usage of per-CPU TX processing. Once the packets are prepared independetly on each CPU, the hardware enqueues the descriptors in common TX queue. After they are sent, the buffers and associated sk_buffs should be released on the corresponding CPU. This is why a special index is maintained in order to point to the right data to be released after transmission takes place. Each per-CPU TX queue comprise an array of sent sk_buffs, freed in mvpp2_txq_bufs_free function. However, the index was used there also for obtaining a descriptor (and therefore a buffer to be DMA-unmapped) from common TX queue, which was wrong, because it was not referring to the current CPU. This commit enables proper unmapping of sent data buffers by indexing them in per-CPU queues using a dedicated array for keeping their physical addresses. Signed-off-by:

Upon receipt of SYNACK from the server, ipt_SYNPROXY first sends back an ACK to finish the server handshake, then calls nf_ct_seqadj_init() to initiate sequence number adjustment of forwarded packets to the client and finally sends a window update to the client to unblock it's TX queue. Since synproxy_send_client_ack() does not set synproxy_send_tcp()'s nfct parameter, no sequence number adjustment happens and the client receives the window update with incorrect sequence number. Depending on client TCP implementation, this leads to a significant delay (until a window probe is being sent). Signed-off-by:

Sathya Perla says: ==================== be2net: patch set This patch set contains 2 driver fixes to a Lancer HW issue and a fix to a double free bug. Pls apply to the "net" tree. Thanks! Patch 1 now enables filters only after creating RXQs. This is done as HW issues were observed on Lancer adapters if filters (flags, mac addrs etc) are enabled *before* creating RXQs. This patch changes the driver design by enabling filters in be_open() -- instead of be_setup() -- after RXQs are created and buffers posted. Patch 2 fixes an RX stall issue that was seen on Lancer adapters when RXQs are destroyed while they are in an "out of buffer" state. This patch fixes this issue by posting 64 buffers to each RXQ before destroying them in the close path. This is done after ensuring that no more new packets are selected for transfer to the RXQs by disabling interface filters. Patch 3 protects eqo->affinity_mask variable from being freed twice and resulting in a crash. It's now freed only when EQs haven't yet been destroyed. ==================== Signed-off-by: -

Prior to this patch, rx buffer size for each rx queue of an interface is configurable through dts bindings. But for an interface, the first rx queue's rx buffer size is always the usual MTU size (plus usual overhead) and page size for the remaining rx queues (if they are enabled by specifying a non-zero rx queue depth dts binding of the corresponding interface).

Without this initialization, gateways which actually announce up/down bandwidth of 0/0 could be added. If these nodes get purged via _batadv_purge_orig() later, the gw_node structure does not get removed since batadv_gw_node_delete() updates the gw_node with up/down bandwidth of 0/0, and the updating function then discards the change and does not free gw_node. This results in leaking the gw_node structures, which references other structures: gw_node -> orig_node -> orig_node_ifinfo -> hardif. When removing the interface later, the open reference on the hardif may cause hangs with the infamous "unregister_netdevice: waiting for mesh1 to become free. Usage count = 1" message. Signed-off-by:

When a node running DAT receives an ARP request from the LAN for the first time, it is likely that this node will request the ARP entry through the distributed ARP table (DAT) in the mesh. Once a DAT reply is received the asking node must check if the MAC address for which the IP address has been asked is local. If it is, the node must drop the ARP reply bceause the client should have replied on its own locally. Forwarding this reply means fooling any L2 bridge (e.g. Ethernet switches) lying between the batman-adv node and the LAN. This happens because the L2 bridge will think that the client sending the ARP reply lies somewhere in the mesh, while this node is sitting in the same LAN. Reported-by:
