When header translation failure is indicated, the hardware will insert an extra 2-byte field containing the data length after the protocol type field. This happens either when the LLC-SNAP pattern did not match, or if a VLAN header was detected. The previous commit accidentally breaks the logic, so reverts back.

mt7921_usb_sdio_tx_prepare_skb() calls mt7921_usb_sdio_write_txwi() and mt7921_skb_add_usb_sdio_hdr(), both of which blindly assume that adequate headroom will be available in the passed skb. This assumption typically is satisfied when the skb was allocated in the net core for transmission via the mt7921 netdev (although even that is only an optimization and is not strictly guaranteed), but the assumption is sometimes not satisfied when the skb originated in the receive path of another netdev and was passed through to the mt7921, such as by the bridge layer. Blindly prepending bytes to an skb is always wrong. This commit introduces a call to skb_cow_head() before the call to mt7921_usb_sdio_write_txwi() in mt7921_usb_sdio_tx_prepare_skb() to ensure that at least MT_SDIO_TXD_SIZE + MT_SDIO_HDR_SIZE bytes can be pushed onto the skb. Without this fix, I can trivially cause kernel panics by bridging an MT7921AU-based USB 802.11ax interface with an Ethernet interface on an Intel Atom-based x86 system using its onboard RTL8169 PCI Ethernet adapter and also on an ARM-based Raspberry Pi 1 using its onboard SMSC9512 USB Ethernet adapter. Note that the panics do not occur in every system configuration, as they occur only if the receiving netdev leaves less headroom in its received skbs than the mt7921 needs for its SDIO headers. Here is an example stack trace of this panic on Raspberry Pi OS Lite 2023-02-21 running kernel 6.1.24+ [1]: skb_panic from skb_push+0x44/0x48 skb_push from mt7921_usb_sdio_tx_prepare_skb+0xd4/0x190 [mt7921_common] mt7921_usb_sdio_tx_prepare_skb [mt7921_common] from mt76u_tx_queue_skb+0x94/0x1d0 [mt76_usb] mt76u_tx_queue_skb [mt76_usb] from __mt76_tx_queue_skb+0x4c/0xc8 [mt76] __mt76_tx_queue_skb [mt76] from mt76_txq_schedule.part.0+0x13c/0x398 [mt76] mt76_txq_schedule.part.0 [mt76] from mt76_txq_schedule_all+0x24/0x30 [mt76] mt76_txq_schedule_all [mt76] from mt7921_tx_worker+0x58/0xf4 [mt7921_common] mt7921_tx_worker [mt7921_common] from __mt76_worker_fn+0x9c/0xec [mt76] __mt76_worker_fn [mt76] from kthread+0xbc/0xe0 kthread from ret_from_fork+0x14/0x34 After this fix, bridging the mt7921 interface works fine on both of my previously problematic systems.

To silence this warning, it's enough to pass an address of 'u.action' itself instead of an address of its first member. This also fixes an improper usage of 'sizeof()'. Since 'skb' is extended with 'sizeof(mgmt->u.action.u.tdls_discover_resp) + 1' bytes (where 1 is actually 'sizeof(mgmt->u.action.category)'), I assume that the same number of bytes should be copied.

IPv6 inet sockets are supposed to have a "struct ipv6_pinfo" field at the end of their definition, so that inet6_sk_generic() can derive from socket size the offset of the "struct ipv6_pinfo". This is very fragile, and prevents adding bigger alignment in sockets, because inet6_sk_generic() does not work if the compiler adds padding after the ipv6_pinfo component. We are currently working on a patch series to reorganize TCP structures for better data locality and found issues similar to the one fixed in commit f5d54767 ("tcp: fix tcp_inet6_sk() for 32bit kernels") Alternative would be to force an alignment on "struct ipv6_pinfo", greater or equal to __alignof__(any ipv6 sock) to ensure there is no padding. This does not look great. v2: fix typo in mptcp_proto_v6_init() (Paolo) Signed-off-by:

If the received RA router lifetime is less than the configured value (and not 0), the RA is ignored. This is useful for mobile devices, whose battery life can be impacted by networks that configure RAs with a short lifetime. On such networks, the device should never gain IPv6 provisioning and should attempt to drop RAs via hardware offload, if available. Signed-off-by:

`strncpy` is deprecated for use on NUL-terminated destination strings [1]. Even call sites utilizing length-bounded destination buffers should switch over to using `strtomem` or `strtomem_pad`. In this case, however, the compiler is unable to determine the size of the `data` buffer which renders `strtomem` unusable. Due to this, `strscpy` should be used. It should be noted that most call sites already zero-initialize the destination buffer. However, I've opted to use `strscpy_pad` to maintain the same exact behavior that `strncpy` produced (zero-padded tail up to `len`). Also see [3].

Anjali Kulkarni says: ==================== Process connector bug fixes & enhancements Oracle DB is trying to solve a performance overhead problem it has been facing for the past 10 years and using this patch series, we can fix this issue. Oracle DB runs on a large scale with 100000s of short lived processes, starting up and exiting quickly. A process monitoring DB daemon which tracks and cleans up after processes that have died without a proper exit needs notifications only when a process died with a non-zero exit code (which should be rare). Due to the pmon architecture, which is distributed, each process is independent and has minimal interaction with pmon. Hence fd based solutions to track a process's spawning and exit cannot be used. Pmon needs to detect the abnormal death of a process so it can cleanup after. Currently it resorts to checking /proc every few seconds. Other methods we tried like using system call to reduce the above overhead were not accepted upstream. With this change, we add event based filtering to proc connector module so that DB can only listen to the events it is interested in. A new event type PROC_EVENT_NONZERO_EXIT is added, which is only sent by kernel to a listening application when any process exiting has a non-zero exit status. This change will give Oracle DB substantial performance savings - it takes 50ms to scan about 8K PIDs in /proc, about 500ms for 100K PIDs. DB does this check every 3 secs, so over an hour we save 10secs for 100K PIDs. With this, a client can register to listen for only exit or fork or a mix or all of the events. This greatly enhances performance - currently, we need to listen to all events, and there are 9 different types of events. For eg. handling 3 types of events - 8K-forks + 8K-exits + 8K-execs takes 200ms, whereas handling 2 types - 8K-forks + 8K-exits takes about 150ms, and handling just one type - 8K exits takes about 70ms. Measuring the time using pidfds for monitoring 8K process exits took 4 times longer - 200ms, as compared to 70ms using only exit notifications of proc connector. Hence, we cannot use pidfd for our use case. This kind of a new event could also be useful to other applications like Google's lmkd daemon, which needs a killed process's exit notification. This patch series is organized as follows - Patch 1 : Needed for patch 3 to work. Patch 2 : Needed for patch 3 to work. Patch 3 : Fixes some bugs in proc connector, details in the patch. Patch 4 : Adds event based filtering for performance enhancements. Patch 5 : Allow non-root users access to proc connector events.

There were a couple of reasons for not allowing non-root users access initially - one is there was some point no proper receive buffer management in place for netlink multicast. But that should be long fixed. See link below for more context. Second is that some of the messages may contain data that is root only. But this should be handled with a finer granularity, which is being done at the protocol layer. The only problematic protocols are nf_queue and the firewall netlink. Hence, this restriction for non-root access was relaxed for NETLINK_ROUTE initially: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20020612013101.A22399@wotan.suse.de/ This restriction has also been removed for following protocols: NETLINK_KOBJECT_UEVENT, NETLINK_AUDIT, NETLINK_SOCK_DIAG, NETLINK_GENERIC, NETLINK_SELINUX. Since process connector messages are not sensitive (process fork, exit notifications etc.), and anyone can read /proc data, we can allow non-root access here. However, since process event notification is not the only consumer of NETLINK_CONNECTOR, we can make this change even more fine grained than the protocol level, by checking for multicast group within the protocol. Allow non-root access for NETLINK_CONNECTOR via NL_CFG_F_NONROOT_RECV but add new bind function cn_bind(), which allows non-root access only for CN_IDX_PROC multicast group. Signed-off-by:

This patch adds the capability to filter messages sent by the proc connector on the event type supplied in the message from the client to the connector. The client can register to listen for an event type given in struct proc_input. This event based filteting will greatly enhance performance - handling 8K exits takes about 70ms, whereas 8K-forks + 8K-exits takes about 150ms & handling 8K-forks + 8K-exits + 8K-execs takes 200ms. There are currently 9 different types of events, and we need to listen to all of them. Also, measuring the time using pidfds for monitoring 8K process exits took much longer - 200ms, as compared to 70ms using only exit notifications of proc connector. We also add a new event type - PROC_EVENT_NONZERO_EXIT, which is only sent by kernel to a listening application when any process exiting, has a non-zero exit status. This will help the clients like Oracle DB, where a monitoring process wants notfications for non-zero process exits so it can cleanup after them. This kind of a new event could also be useful to other applications like Google's lmkd daemon, which needs a killed process's exit notification. The patch takes care that existing clients using old mechanism of not sending the event type work without any changes. cn_filter function checks to see if the event type being notified via proc connector matches the event type requested by client, before sending(matches) or dropping(does not match) a packet.

The current proc connector code has the foll. bugs - if there are more than one listeners for the proc connector messages, and one of them deregisters for listening using PROC_CN_MCAST_IGNORE, they will still get all proc connector messages, as long as there is another listener. Another issue is if one client calls PROC_CN_MCAST_LISTEN, and another one calls PROC_CN_MCAST_IGNORE, then both will end up not getting any messages. This patch adds filtering and drops packet if client has sent PROC_CN_MCAST_IGNORE. This data is stored in the client socket's sk_user_data. In addition, we only increment or decrement proc_event_num_listeners once per client. This fixes the above issues. cn_release is the release function added for NETLINK_CONNECTOR. It uses the newly added netlink_release function added to netlink_sock. It will free sk_user_data. Signed-off-by:

This can be supplied by the protocol via the release function in netlink_kernel_cfg. This is being added for the NETLINK_CONNECTOR protocol, so it can free it's data when socket is deleted.

Petr Machata says: ==================== mlxsw: Permit enslavement to netdevices with uppers The mlxsw driver currently makes the assumption that the user applies configuration in a bottom-up manner. Thus netdevices need to be added to the bridge before IP addresses are configured on that bridge or SVI added on top of it. Enslaving a netdevice to another netdevice that already has uppers is in fact forbidden by mlxsw for this reason. Despite this safety, it is rather easy to get into situations where the offloaded configuration is just plain wrong. As an example, take a front panel port, configure an IP address: it gets a RIF. Now enslave the port to the bridge, and the RIF is gone. Remove the port from the bridge again, but the RIF never comes back. There is a number of similar situations, where changing the configuration there and back utterly breaks the offload. Similarly, detaching a front panel port from a configured topology means unoffloading of this whole topology -- VLAN uppers, next hops, etc. Attaching the port back is then not permitted at all. If it were, it would not result in a working configuration, because much of mlxsw is written to react to changes in immediate configuration. There is nothing that would go visit netdevices in the attached-to topology and offload existing routes and VLAN memberships, for example. In this patchset, introduce a number of replays to be invoked so that this sort of post-hoc offload is supported. Then remove the vetoes that disallowed enslavement of front panel ports to other netdevices with uppers. The patchset progresses as follows: - In patch #1, fix an issue in the bridge driver. To my knowledge, the issue could not have resulted in a buggy behavior previously, and thus is packaged with this patchset instead of being sent separately to net. - In patch #2, add a new helper to the switchdev code. - In patch #3, drop mlxsw selftests that will not be relevant after this patchset anymore. - Patches #4, #5, #6, #7 and #8 prepare the codebase for smoother introduction of the rest of the code. - Patches #9, #10, #11, #12, #13 and #14 replay various aspects of upper configuration when a front panel port is introduced into a topology. Individual patches take care of bridge and LAG RIF memberships, switchdev replay, nexthop and neighbors replay, and MACVLAN offload. - Patches #15 and #16 introduce RIFs for newly-relevant netdevices when a front panel port is enslaved (in which case all uppers are newly relevant), or, respectively, deslaved (in which case the newly-relevant netdevice is the one being deslaved). - Up until this point, the introduced scaffolding was not really used, because mlxsw still forbids enslavement of mlxsw netdevices to uppers with uppers. In patch #17, this condition is finally relaxed. A sizable selftest suite is available to test all this new code. That will be sent in a separate patchset. ==================== Signed-off-by:
