David Vrabel says: ==================== xen-netback: guest Rx queue drain and stall fixes This series fixes two critical xen-netback bugs. 1. Netback may consume all of host memory by queuing an unlimited number of skb on the internal guest Rx queue. This behaviour is guest triggerable. 2. Carrier flapping under high traffic rates which reduces performance. The first patch is a prerequite. Removing support for frontends with feature-rx-notify makes it easier to reason about the correctness of netback since it no longer has to support this outdated and broken mode. ==================== Signed-off-by:David S.

If a frontend not receiving packets it is useful to detect this and turn off the carrier so packets are dropped early instead of being queued and drained when they expire. A to-guest queue is stalled if it doesn't have enough free slots for a an extended period of time (default 60 s). If at least one queue is stalled, the carrier is turned off (in the expectation that the other queues will soon stall as well). The carrier is only turned on once all queues are ready. When the frontend connects, all the queues start in the stalled state and only become ready once the frontend queues enough Rx requests. Signed-off-by:

Netback needs to discard old to-guest skb's (guest Rx queue drain) and it needs detect guest Rx stalls (to disable the carrier so packets are discarded earlier), but the current implementation is very broken. 1. The check in hard_start_xmit of the slot availability did not consider the number of packets that were already in the guest Rx queue. This could allow the queue to grow without bound. The guest stops consuming packets and the ring was allowed to fill leaving S slot free. Netback queues a packet requiring more than S slots (ensuring that the ring stays with S slots free). Netback queue indefinately packets provided that then require S or fewer slots. 2. The Rx stall detection is not triggered in this case since the (host) Tx queue is not stopped. 3. If the Tx queue is stopped and a guest Rx interrupt occurs, netback will consider this an Rx purge event which may result in it taking the carrier down unnecessarily. It also considers a queue with only 1 slot free as unstalled (even though the next packet might not fit in this). The internal guest Rx queue is limited by a byte length (to 512 Kib, enough for half the ring). The (host) Tx queue is stopped and started based on this limit. This sets an upper bound on the amount of memory used by packets on the internal queue. This allows the estimatation of the number of slots for an skb to be removed (it wasn't a very good estimate anyway). Instead, the guest Rx thread just waits for enough free slots for a maximum sized packet. skbs queued on the internal queue have an 'expires' time (set to the current time plus the drain timeout). The guest Rx thread will detect when the skb at the head of the queue has expired and discard expired skbs. This sets a clear upper bound on the length of time an skb can be queued for. For a guest being destroyed the maximum time needed to wait for all the packets it sent to be dropped is still the drain timeout (10 s) since it will not be sending new packets. Rx stall detection is reintroduced in a later commit. Signed-off-by:

Frontends that do not provide feature-rx-notify may stall because netback depends on the notification from frontend to wake the guest Rx thread (even if can_queue is false). This could be fixed but feature-rx-notify was introduced in 2006 and I am not aware of any frontends that do not implement this. Signed-off-by:

This patch brings back the makefile called testptp.mk which was removed in commit adb19fb6 (Documentation: add makefiles for more targets). While the idea of that commit was to improve build coverage of the examples, the new Makefile is unable to cross compile the testptp program. In contrast, the deleted makefile was able to do this just fine. This patch fixes the regression by restoring the original makefile. Signed-off-by:

total_data_buflen is used by netvsc_send() to decide if a packet can be put into send buffer. It should also include the size of RNDIS message before the Ethernet frame. Otherwise, a messge with total size bigger than send_section_size may be copied into the send buffer, and cause data corruption. [Request to include this patch to the Stable branches] Signed-off-by:

Tom Lendacky says: ==================== amd-xgbe: AMD XGBE driver fixes 2014-10-22 The following series of patches includes fixes to the driver. - Properly handle feature changes via ethtool by using correctly sized variables - Perform proper napi packet counting and budget checking This patch series is based on net. ==================== Signed-off-by: -
Lendacky, Thomas authored
Currently the amd-xgbe driver increments the packets processed counter each time a descriptor is processed. Since a packet can be represented by more than one descriptor incrementing the counter in this way is not appropriate. Also, since multiple descriptors cause the budget check to be short circuited, sometimes the returned value from the poll function would be larger than the budget value resulting in a WARN_ONCE being triggered. Update the polling logic to properly account for the number of packets processed and exit when the budget value is reached. Signed-off-by:

The ndo_set_features callback function was improperly using an unsigned int to save the current feature value for features such as NETIF_F_RXCSUM. Since that feature is in the upper 32 bits of a 64 bit variable the result was always 0 making it not possible to actually turn off the hardware RX checksum support. Change the unsigned int type to the netdev_features_t type in order to properly capture the current value and perform the proper operation. Signed-off-by:

Since commit 278d2404 (net: fec: ptp: Enable PPS output based on ptp clock) fec_enet_interrupt calls fec_ptp_check_pps_event unconditionally, which calls into ptp_clock_event. If fep->ptp_clock is NULL, ptp_clock_event tries to dereference the NULL pointer. Since on i.MX53 fep->bufdesc_ex is not set, fec_ptp_init is never called, and fep->ptp_clock is NULL, which reliably causes a kernel panic. This patch adds a check for fep->ptp_clock == NULL in fec_enet_interrupt. Signed-off-by:

The commit "net: Save TX flow hash in sock and set in skbuf on xmit" introduced the inet_set_txhash() and ip6_set_txhash() routines to calculate and record flow hash(sk_txhash) in the socket structure. sk_txhash is used to set skb->hash which is used to spread flows across multiple TXQs. But, the above routines are invoked before the source port of the connection is created. Because of this all outgoing connections that just differ in the source port get hashed into the same TXQ. This patch fixes this problem for IPv4/6 by invoking the the above routines after the source port is available for the socket.

After interface restart (eg: after link disconnection/reconnection), the bridge function doesn't work anymore. This is due to the promiscuous mode being cleared by the restart. The mac-fcc already includes code to set the promiscuous mode back during the restart. This patch adds the same handling to mac-fec and mac-scc. Tested with bridge function on MPC885 with FEC.

The crafted header start address is from a driver supplied buffer, which one can reasonably expect to be aligned on a 4-bytes boundary. However ATM the TSO helper API is only used by ethernet drivers and the tcp header will then be aligned to a 2-bytes only boundary from the header start address. Signed-off-by:

Meanwhile, if messages delivered by remote node arrive at the node and their destinations are also the same socket, tipc_sk_rcv() running on process context might be preempted by tipc_sk_rcv() running BH context.

Florian Westphal says: ==================== net: minor gso encapsulation fixes The following series fixes a minor bug in the gso segmentation handlers when encapsulation offload is used. Theoretically this could cause kernel panic when the stack tries to software-segment such a GRE offload packet, but it looks like there is only one affected call site (tbf scheduler) and it handles NULL return value. I've included a followup patch to add IS_ERR_OR_NULL checks where needed. While looking into this, I also found that size computation of the individual segments is incorrect if skb->encapsulation is set. Please see individual patches for delta vs. v1. ==================== Signed-off-by: -

if ->encapsulation is set we have to use inner_tcp_hdrlen and add the size of the inner network headers too. This is 'mostly harmless'; tbf might send skb that is slightly over quota or drop skb even if it would have fit. Signed-off-by:

skb_gso_segment has three possible return values: 1. a pointer to the first segmented skb 2. an errno value (IS_ERR()) 3. NULL. This can happen when GSO is used for header verification. However, several callers currently test IS_ERR instead of IS_ERR_OR_NULL and would oops when NULL is returned. Note that these call sites should never actually see such a NULL return value; all callers mask out the GSO bits in the feature argument. However, there have been issues with some protocol handlers erronously not respecting the specified feature mask in some cases. It is preferable to get 'have to turn off hw offloading, else slow' reports rather than 'kernel crashes'. Signed-off-by:

skb_gso_segment() has a 'features' argument representing offload features available to the output path. A few handlers, e.g. GRE, instead re-fetch the features of skb->dev and use those instead of the provided ones when handing encapsulation/tunnels. Depending on dev->hw_enc_features of the output device skb_gso_segment() can then return NULL even when the caller has disabled all GSO feature bits, as segmentation of inner header thinks device will take care of segmentation. This e.g. affects the tbf scheduler, which will silently drop GRE-encap GSO skbs that did not fit the remaining token quota as the segmentation does not work when device supports corresponding hw offload capabilities.

Pablo Neira Ayuso says: ==================== netfilter fixes for net The following patchset contains netfilter fixes for your net tree, they are: 1) Fix missing MODULE_LICENSE() in the new nf_reject_ipv{4,6} modules. 2) Restrict nat and masq expressions to the nat chain type. Otherwise, users may crash their kernel if they attach a nat/masq rule to a non nat chain. 3) Fix hook validation in nft_compat when non-base chains are used. Basically, initialize hook_mask to zero. 4) Make sure you use match/targets in nft_compat from the right chain type. The existing validation relies on the table name which can be avoided by 5) Better netlink attribute validation in nft_nat. This expression has to reject the configuration when no address and proto configurations are specified. 6) Interpret NFTA_NAT_REG_*_MAX if only if NFTA_NAT_REG_*_MIN is set. Yet another sanity check to reject incorrect configurations from userspace. 7) Conditional NAT attribute dumping depending on the existing configuration. ==================== Signed-off-by: -

The following patch fixes a bug which causes the ax88179_178a driver to be incapable of being added to a bond. When I brought up the issue with the bonding maintainers, they indicated that the real problem was with the NIC driver which must return zero for success (of setting the MAC address). I see that several other NIC drivers follow that pattern by either simply always returing zero, or by passing through a negative (error) result while rewriting any positive return code to zero. With that same philisophy applied to the ax88179_178a driver, it allows it to work correctly with the bonding driver. I believe this is suitable for queuing in -stable, as it's a small, simple, and obvious fix that corrects a defect with no other known workaround. This patch is against vanilla 3.17(.0).

This breaks the stack end corruption detection facility. What that facility does it write a magic value to "end_of_stack()" and checking to see if it gets overwritten. "end_of_stack()" is "task_thread_info(p) + 1", which for sparc64 is the beginning of the FPU register save area. So once the user uses the FPU, the magic value is overwritten and the debug checks trigger. Fix this by making the size explicit. Due to the size we use for the fpsaved[], gsr[], and xfsr[] arrays we are limited to 7 levels of FPU state saves. So each FPU register set is 256 bytes, allocate 256 * 7 for the fpregs area.

Every path that ends up at do_sparc64_fault() must install a valid FAULT_CODE_* bitmask in the per-thread fault code byte. Two paths leading to the label winfix_trampoline (which expects the FAULT_CODE_* mask in register %g4) were not doing so: 1) For pre-hypervisor TLB protection violation traps, if we took the 'winfix_trampoline' path we wouldn't have %g4 initialized with the FAULT_CODE_* value yet. Resulting in using the TLB_TAG_ACCESS register address value instead. 2) In the TSB miss path, when we notice that we are going to use a hugepage mapping, but we haven't allocated the hugepage TSB yet, we still have to take the window fixup case into consideration and in that particular path we leave %g4 not setup properly. Errors on this sort were largely invisible previously, but after commit 4ccb9272 ("sparc64: sun4v TLB error power off events") we now have a fault_code mask bit (FAULT_CODE_BAD_RA) that triggers due to this bug. FAULT_CODE_BAD_RA triggers because this bit is set in TLB_TAG_ACCESS (see #1 above) and thus we get seemingly random bus errors triggered for user processes.
