In procedure mlx4_init_mr_table(), slaves should do no processing, but should return success. This initialization is hypervisor-only. However, the check for num_mpts being a power-of-2 was performed before the check to return immediately if the driver is for a slave. This resulted in spurious failures. The order of performing the checks is reversed, so that if the driver is for a slave, no processing is done and success is returned.

In upstream kernels under SRIOV, the vlan register/unregister calls were NOPs (doing nothing and returning OK). We detect these old calls from guests (via the comm channel), since previously the port number in mlx4_register_vlan was passed (improperly) in the out_param. This has been corrected so that the port number is now passed in bits 8..15 of the in_modifier field. For old calls, these bits will be zero, so if the passed port number is zero, we can still look at the out_param field to see if it contains a valid port number. If yes, the VM is running an old driver. Since for old drivers, the register/unregister_vlan wrappers were NOPs, we continue this policy -- the reason being that upstream had an additional bug in eth driver running on guests (where procedure mlx4_en_vlan_rx_kill_vid() had the following code: if (!mlx4_find_cached_vlan(mdev->dev, priv->port, vid, &idx)) mlx4_unregister_vlan(mdev->dev, priv->port, idx); else en_err(priv, "could not find vid %d in cache\n", vid); On a VM, mlx4_find_cached_vlan() will always fail, since the vlan cache is located on the Hypervisor; on guests it is empty. Therefore, if we allow upstream guests to register vlans, we will have vlan leakage since the unregister will never be performed. Leaving vlan reg/unreg for old guest drivers as a NOP is not a feature regression, since in upstream the register/unregister vlan wrapper is a NOP.

The functions mlx4_register_vlan, mlx4_unregister_vlan, mlx4_register_mac, mlx4_unregister_mac all made illegal use of the out_param in multifunc mode to pass the port number. The firmware spec specifies that the port number should be passed in bits 8..15 of the input-modifier field for ALLOC_RES and FREE_RES (sections 20.15.1 and 20.15.2). For MAC register/unregister, this patch contains workarounds so that guests running previous kernels continue to work on a new Hypervisor, and guests running the new kernel will continue to work on old hypervisors. Vlan registeration capability is still not operational in multifunction mode, since the vlan wrapper functions are not implemented in this patch.

We can safely reduce the number of test cases by a tenth. There is no particular need to run as many as we're running now for crc32{,c}_combine, that gives us still ~8000 tests we're doing if people run kernels with crc selftests enabled which is perfectly fine.

The net/bridge/br_private.h conflict was a function signature (argument addition) change overlapping with the extern removals from Joe Perches.

Introduced in f9e42b85 ("net: sctp: sideeffect: throw BUG if primary_path is NULL"), we intended to find a buggy assoc that's part of the assoc hash table with a primary_path that is NULL. However, we better remove the BUG_ON for now and find a more suitable place to assert for these things as Mark reports that this also triggers the bug when duplication cookie processing happens, and the assoc is not part of the hash table (so all good in this case). Such a situation can for example easily be reproduced by: tc qdisc add dev eth0 root handle 1: prio bands 2 priomap 1 1 1 1 1 1 tc qdisc add dev eth0 parent 1:2 handle 20: netem loss 20% tc filter add dev eth0 protocol ip parent 1: prio 2 u32 match ip \ protocol 132 0xff match u8 0x0b 0xff at 32 flowid 1:2 This drops 20% of COOKIE-ACK packets. After some follow-up discussion with Vlad we came to the conclusion that for now we should still better remove this BUG_ON() assertion, and come up with two follow-ups later on, that is, i) find a more suitable place for this assertion, and possibly ii) have a special allocator/initializer for such kind of temporary assocs.

High-availability Seamless Redundancy ("HSR") provides instant failover redundancy for Ethernet networks. It requires a special network topology where all nodes are connected in a ring (each node having two physical network interfaces). It is suited for applications that demand high availability and very short reaction time. HSR acts on the Ethernet layer, using a registered Ethernet protocol type to send special HSR frames in both directions over the ring. The driver creates virtual network interfaces that can be used just like any ordinary Linux network interface, for IP/TCP/UDP traffic etc. All nodes in the network ring must be HSR capable. This code is a "best effort" to comply with the HSR standard as described in IEC 62439-3:2010 (HSRv0). Signed-off-by: Arvid Brodin <arvid.brodin@xdin.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Joby Poriyath provided a xen-netback patch to reduce the size of xenvif structure as some netdev allocation could fail under memory pressure/fragmentation. This patch is handling the problem at the core level, allowing any netdev structures to use vmalloc() if kmalloc() failed. As vmalloc() adds overhead on a critical network path, add __GFP_REPEAT to kzalloc() flags to do this fallback only when really needed.

This fixes an outstanding bug found through IPVS, where SCTP packets with skb->data_len > 0 (non-linearized) and empty frag_list, but data accumulated in frags[] member, are forwarded with incorrect checksum letting SCTP initial handshake fail on some systems. Linearizing each SCTP skb in IPVS to prevent that would not be a good solution as this leads to an additional and unnecessary performance penalty on the load-balancer itself for no good reason (as we actually only want to update the checksum, and can do that in a different/better way presented here). The actual problem is elsewhere, namely, that SCTP's checksumming in sctp_compute_cksum() does not take frags[] into account like skb_checksum() does. So while we are fixing this up, we better reuse the existing code that we have anyway in __skb_checksum() and use it for walking through the data doing checksumming. This will not only fix this issue, but also consolidates some SCTP code with core sk_buff code, bringing it closer together and removing respectively avoiding reimplementation of skb_checksum() for no good reason. As crc32c() can use hardware implementation within the crypto layer, we leave that intact (it wraps around / falls back to e.g. slice-by-8 algorithm in __crc32c_le() otherwise); plus use the __crc32c_le_combine() combinator for crc32c blocks. Also, we remove all other SCTP checksumming code, so that we only have to use sctp_compute_cksum() from now on; for doing that, we need to transform SCTP checkumming in output path slightly, and can leave the rest intact.

Currently, skb_checksum walks over 1) linearized, 2) frags[], and 3) frag_list data and calculats the one's complement, a 32 bit result suitable for feeding into itself or csum_tcpudp_magic(), but unsuitable for SCTP as we're calculating CRC32c there. Hence, in order to not re-implement the very same function in SCTP (and maybe other protocols) over and over again, use an update() + combine() callback internally to allow for walking over the skb with different algorithms.

This patch adds a combinator to merge two or more crc32{,c}s into a new one. This is useful for checksum computations of fragmented skbs that use crc32/crc32c as checksums. The arithmetics for combining both in the GF(2) was taken and slightly modified from zlib. Only passing two crcs is insufficient as two crcs and the length of the second piece is needed for merging. The code is made generic, so that only polynomials need to be passed for crc32_le resp. crc32c_le.

Negative message lengths make no sense -- so don't do negative queue lenghts or identifier counts. Prevent them from getting negative. Also change the underlying data types to be unsigned to avoid hairy surprises with sign extensions in cases where those variables get evaluated in unsigned expressions with bigger data types, e.g size_t. In case a user still wants to have "unlimited" sizes she could just use INT_MAX instead.

A vmalloc fault needs to sync up PGD/PTE entry from init_mm to current task's "active_mm". ARC vmalloc fault handler however was using mm. A vmalloc fault for non user task context (actually pre-userland, from init thread's open for /dev/console) caused the handler to deref NULL mm (for mm->pgd) The reasons it worked so far is amazing: 1. By default (!SMP), vmalloc fault handler uses a cached value of PGD. In SMP that MMU register is repurposed hence need for mm pointer deref. 2. In pre-3.12 SMP kernel, the problem triggering vmalloc didn't exist in pre-userland code path - it was introduced with commit 20bafb3d "n_tty: Move buffers into n_tty_data" Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com> Cc: Gilad Ben-Yossef <gilad@benyossef.com> Cc: Noam Camus <noamc@ezchip.com> Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org #3.10 and 3.11 Cc: Peter Hurley <peter@hurleysoftware.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
