Vegard Nossum found a unix socket OOM was possible, posting an exploit program. My analysis is we can eat all LOWMEM memory before unix_gc() being called from unix_release_sock(). Moreover, the thread blocked in unix_gc() can consume huge amount of time to perform cleanup because of huge working set. One way to handle this is to have a sensible limit on unix_tot_inflight, tested from wait_for_unix_gc() and to force a call to unix_gc() if this limit is hit. This solves the OOM and also reduce overall latencies, and should not slowdown normal workloads.

Some aspects of PHY initialization are board dependent, things like indicator LED connections and some clocking modes cannot be determined by probing. The dev_flags element of struct phy_device can be used to control these things if an appropriate value can be passed from the Ethernet driver. We run into problems however if the PHY connections are specified by the device tree. There is no way for the Ethernet driver to know what flags it should pass. If we are using the device tree, the struct phy_device will be populated with the device tree node corresponding to the PHY, and we can extract extra configuration information from there. The next question is what should the format of that information be? It is highly device specific, and the device tree representation should not be tied to any arbitrary kernel defined constants. A straight forward representation is just to specify the exact bits that should be set using the "marvell,reg-init" property: phy5: ethernet-phy@5 { reg = <5>; compatible = "marvell,88e1149r"; marvell,reg-init = /* led[0]:1000, led[1]:100, led[2]:10, led[3]:tx */ <3 0x10 0 0x5777>, /* Reg 3,16 <- 0x5777 */ /* mix %:0, led[0123]:drive low off hiZ */ <3 0x11 0 0x00aa>, /* Reg 3,17 <- 0x00aa */ /* default blink periods. */ <3 0x12 0 0x4105>, /* Reg 3,18 <- 0x4105 */ /* led[4]:rx, led[5]:dplx, led[45]:drive low off hiZ */ <3 0x13 0 0x0a60>; /* Reg 3,19 <- 0x0a60 */ }; phy6: ethernet-phy@6 { reg = <6>; compatible = "marvell,88e1118"; marvell,reg-init = /* Fix rx and tx clock transition timing */ <2 0x15 0xffcf 0>, /* Reg 2,21 Clear bits 4, 5 */ /* Adjust LED drive. */ <3 0x11 0 0x442a>, /* Reg 3,17 <- 0442a */ /* irq, blink-activity, blink-link */ <3 0x10 0 0x0242>; /* Reg 3,16 <- 0x0242 */ }; The Marvell PHYs have a page select register at register 22 (0x16), we can specify any register by its page and register number. These are the first and second word. The third word contains a mask to be ANDed with the existing register value, and the fourth word is ORed with the result to yield the new register value. The new marvell_of_reg_init function leaves the page select register unchanged, so a call to it can be dropped into the .config_init functions without unduly affecting the state of the PHY. If CONFIG_OF_MDIO is not set, there is no of_node, or no "marvell,reg-init" property, the PHY initialization is unchanged.

Driver appears to be mistaking the permission field with default value in the case of debug and qlge_irq_type. Driver is also passing debug as a bitmask into netif_msg_init() which wants a number of bits. Ron Mercer suggests we should change this to pass in -1 so the defaults get used instead, which makes the default much less verbose.

Commit 496c185c "atl1c: Add support for Atheros AR8152 and AR8152" added the condition: if (hw->nic_type == athr_l1c || hw->nic_type == athr_l2c_b) for enabling OTP CLK, and the condition: if (hw->nic_type == athr_l1c || hw->nic_type == athr_l2c) for disabling OTP CLK. Since the two previously defined hardware types are athr_l1c and athr_l2c, the latter condition appears to be the correct one. Change the former to match.

VMWare reports that the e1000 driver has a bug when bringing down the interface, such that interrupts are not disabled in the hardware but the driver stops reporting that it consumed the interrupt. The fix is to set the driver's "down" flag later in the routine, after all the timers and such have exited, preventing the interrupt handler from being called and exiting early without handling the interrupt.

netif_set_real_num_rx_queues() can decrement and increment the number of rx queues. For example ixgbe does this as features and offloads are toggled. Presumably this could also happen across down/up on most devices if the available resources changed (cpu offlined). The kobject needs to be zero'd in this case so that the state is not preserved across kobject_put()/kobject_init_and_add(). This resolves the following error report. ixgbe 0000:03:00.0: eth2: NIC Link is Up 10 Gbps, Flow Control: RX/TX kobject (ffff880324b83210): tried to init an initialized object, something is seriously wrong.

I am not family with RealTek RTL-8139C+ series 10/100 PCI Ethernet driver. I try to guess the meaning of RxProtoIP and IPFail. RxProtoIP stands for received IPv4 packet that upper protocol is not tcp and udp. !(status & IPFail) is true means that driver correctly to check checksum in IPv4 header. If these are right, driver will set ip_summed with CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY for other upper protocol, e.g. sctp, igmp protocol. This will cause protocol stack ignores checksum check for packets with invalid checksum. This patch is only compile-test. Signed-off-by: Shan Wei <shanwei@cn.fujitsu.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

In rds_cmsg_rdma_args(), the user-provided args->nr_local value is restricted to less than UINT_MAX. This seems to need a tighter upper bound, since the calculation of total iov_size can overflow, resulting in a small sock_kmalloc() allocation. This would probably just result in walking off the heap and crashing when calling rds_rdma_pages() with a high count value. If it somehow doesn't crash here, then memory corruption could occur soon after. Signed-off-by: Dan Rosenberg <drosenberg@vsecurity.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

When operating in a mode that initiates communication and using HT40 we should fail if we cannot use both primary and secondary channels to initiate communication. Our current ht40 allowmap only covers STA mode of operation, for beaconing modes we need a check on the fly as the mode of operation is dynamic and there other flags other than disable which we should read to check if we can initiate communication. Do not allow for initiating communication if our secondary HT40 channel has is either disabled, has a passive scan flag, a no-ibss flag or is a radar channel. Userspace now has similar checks but this is also needed in-kernel. Reported-by: Jouni Malinen <jouni.malinen@atheros.com> Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Luis R.
