A message sent to a node after a successful name table lookup may still find that the destination socket has disappeared, because distribution of name table updates is non-atomic. If so, the message will be rejected back to the sender with error code TIPC_ERR_NO_PORT. If the source socket of the message has disappeared in the meantime, the message should be dropped. However, in the currrent code, the message will instead be subject to an unwanted tertiary lookup, because the function tipc_msg_lookup_dest() doesn't check if there is an error code present in the message before performing the lookup. In the worst case, the message may now find the old destination again, and be redirected once more, instead of being dropped directly as it should be. A second bug in this function is that the "prev_node" field in the message is not updated after successful lookup, something that may have unpredictable consequences. The problems arising from those bugs occur very infrequently. The third change in this function; the test on msg_reroute_msg_cnt() is purely cosmetic, reflecting that the returned value never can be negative. This commit corrects the two bugs described above.

Jeff Kirsher says: ==================== Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2015-03-27 This series contains updates to i40e and i40evf. Jesse adds new device IDs to handle the new 20G speed for KR2. Mitch provides a fix for an issue that shows up as a panic or memory corruption when the device is brought down while under heavy stress. This is resolved by delaying the releasing of resources until we receive acknowledgment from the PF driver that the rings have indeed been stopped. Also adds firmware version information to ethtool reporting to align with ixgbevf behavior. Akeem increases the polling loop limiter, sine we found that in certain circumstances the firmware can take longer to be ready after a reset. ==================== Signed-off-by: -

Toshiaki Makita says: ==================== Stacked vlan TSO On the basis of Netdev 0.1 discussion[1], I made a patch set to enable TSO for packets with multiple vlans. Currently, packets with multiple vlans are always segmented by software, which is caused by that netif_skb_features() drops most feature flags for multiple tagged packets. To allow NICs to segment them, we need to get rid of that check from core. Fortunately, recently introduced ndo_features_check() can be used to move the check to each driver, and this patch set is based on the idea. For the initial patch set, I chose 3 drivers, bonding, team, and igb, as candidates to enable TSO. I tested them and confirmed they works fine with this change. Here are samples of performance test results. As I expected, %sys gets pretty lower than before. * TEST1: vlan (.1Q) on vlan (.1ad) on igb (I350) - before $ netperf -t TCP_STREAM -H 192.168.10.1 -l 60 Recv Send Send Socket Socket Message Elapsed Size Size Size Time Throughput bytes bytes bytes secs. 10^6bits/sec 87380 16384 16384 60.02 933.72 Average: CPU %user %nice %system %iowait %steal %idle Average: all 0.13 0.00 11.28 0.01 0.00 88.58 - after $ netperf -t TCP_STREAM -H 192.168.10.1 -l 60 Recv Send Send Socket Socket Message Elapsed Size Size Size Time Throughput bytes bytes bytes secs. 10^6bits/sec 87380 16384 16384 60.01 936.13 Average: CPU %user %nice %system %iowait %steal %idle Average: all 0.24 0.00 4.17 0.01 0.00 95.58 * TEST2: vlan (.1Q) on bridge (.1ad vlan filtering) on team on igb (I350) - before $ netperf -t TCP_STREAM -H 192.168.10.1 -l 60 Recv Send Send Socket Socket Message Elapsed Size Size Size Time Throughput bytes bytes bytes secs. 10^6bits/sec 87380 16384 16384 60.01 936.28 Average: CPU %user %nice %system %iowait %steal %idle Average: all 0.41 0.00 11.57 0.01 0.00 88.01 - after $ netperf -t TCP_STREAM -H 192.168.10.1 -l 60 Recv Send Send Socket Socket Message Elapsed Size Size Size Time Throughput bytes bytes bytes secs. 10^6bits/sec 87380 16384 16384 60.02 935.72 Average: CPU %user %nice %system %iowait %steal %idle Average: all 0.14 0.00 7.66 0.01 0.00 92.19 In addition to above, I tested these configurations: - vlan (.1Q) on vlan (1.ad) on bonding on igb (I350) - vlan (.1Q) on vlan (1.Q) on igb (I350) - vlan (.1Q) on vlan (1.Q) on team on igb (I350) And didn't find any problem.

As datasheets for igb (I210, I350, 82576, etc.) say, maclen can be from 14 to 127, which is enough for reasonable number of vlan tags. My netperf test showed I350's TSO works pretty fine with multiple vlans. Signed-off-by:

Toshiaki Makita authored
Stacked vlan devices curretly have few features (GRO, HIGHDMA, LLTX). Since we have software fallbacks in case the NIC can not handle some features for multiple vlans, we can add the same features as the lower vlan devices for stacked vlan devices. This allows stacked vlan devices to create large (GSO) packets and not to segment packets. Those packets will be segmented by software on the real device, or even can be segmented by the NIC once TSO for multiple vlans becomes enabled by the following patches. The exception is those related to FCoE, which does not have a software fallback. Signed-off-by:

Guenter Roeck says: ==================== net: dsa: HW bridging, EEE support Patch 1 to 7 of this series prepare the drivers using the mv88e6xxx code for HW bridging support, without adding the code itself. For the most part this factors out common port initialization code. There is no functional change except for patch 3, which disables the message port bit for the CPU port to prevent packet duplication if HW bridging is configured. Patch 8 adds the infrastructure for hardware bridging support to the mv88e6xxx code. Patch 9 wires the MV88E6352 driver to support hardware bridging. Patches 10 to 12 add support for ndo_fdb functions to the dsa subsystem, and wire up the MV88E6352 driver to support those functions. Patches 13 to 16 add EEE support and HW bridging support to the mv88e6171 driver. This set of patches is from Andrew, applied on top of the first set of patches. The series applies to net-next as of 3/24/2015. Thanks a lot to Andrew Lunn for testing and valuable feedback. ==================== Signed-off-by: -

Datasheet says that the Message Port bit should not be set for the CPU port. Having it set causes DSA tagged packets to be sent to the CPU port roughly every 30 seconds. Those packets are the same as real packets forwarded between switch ports if the switch is configured for switching between multiple ports. The packets are then bridged by the software bridge, resulting in duplicated packets on the network. Reported-by:

Pablo Neira Ayuso says: ==================== Netfilter updates for net-next The following patchset contains Netfilter updates for your net-next tree. Basically, nf_tables updates to add the set extension infrastructure and finish the transaction for sets from Patrick McHardy. More specifically, they are: 1) Move netns to basechain and use recently added possible_net_t, from Patrick McHardy. 2) Use LOGLEVEL_<FOO> from nf_log infrastructure, from Joe Perches. 3) Restore nf_log_trace that was accidentally removed during conflict resolution. 4) nft_queue does not depend on NETFILTER_XTABLES, starting from here all patches from Patrick McHardy. 5) Use raw_smp_processor_id() in nft_meta. Then, several patches to prepare ground for the new set extension infrastructure: 6) Pass object length to the hash callback in rhashtable as needed by the new set extension infrastructure. 7) Cleanup patch to restore struct nft_hash as wrapper for struct rhashtable 8) Another small source code readability cleanup for nft_hash. 9) Convert nft_hash to rhashtable callbacks. And finally... 10) Add the new set extension infrastructure. 11) Convert the nft_hash and nft_rbtree sets to use it. 12) Batch set element release to avoid several RCU grace period in a row and add new function nft_set_elem_destroy() to consolidate set element release. 13) Return the set extension data area from nft_lookup. 14) Refactor existing transaction code to add some helper functions and document it. 15) Complete the set transaction support, using similar approach to what we already use, to activate/deactivate elements in an atomic fashion. ==================== Signed-off-by: -

Ying Xue says: ==================== tipc: fix two corner issues The patch set aims at resolving the following two critical issues: Patch #1: Resolve a deadlock which happens while all links are reset Patch #2: Correct a mistake usage of RCU lock which is used to protect node list ==================== Signed-off-by: -
Ying Xue authored
TIPC node hash node table is protected with rcu lock on read side. tipc_node_find() is used to look for a node object with node address through iterating the hash node table. As the entire process of what tipc_node_find() traverses the table is guarded with rcu read lock, it's safe for us. However, when callers use the node object returned by tipc_node_find(), there is no rcu read lock applied. Therefore, this is absolutely unsafe for callers of tipc_node_find(). Now we introduce a reference counter for node structure. Before tipc_node_find() returns node object to its caller, it first increases the reference counter. Accordingly, after its caller used it up, it decreases the counter again. This can prevent a node being used by one thread from being freed by another thread. Reviewed-by:
