If the CPU executes the above two reads in out of order fashion, then the bytes[7:0] will have older data and causing the kernel panic. We have to force the order of the reads and thus this patch introduces read memory barrier between these reads.

Toshiaki Makita says: ==================== Fix checksum error when using stacked vlan When I was testing 802.1ad, I found several drivers don't take into account 802.1ad or multiple vlans when retrieving L3 (IP/IPv6) or L4 (TCP/UDP) protocol for checksum offload. It is mainly due to vlan_get_protocol(), which extracts ether type only when it is tagged with single 802.1Q. When 802.1ad is used or there are multiple vlans, it extracts vlan protocol and drivers cannot determine which L3/L4 protocol is used. Those drivers, most of which have IP_CSUM/IPV6_CSUM features, get L3/L4 header-offset by software, so it seems that their checksum offload works with multiple vlans if we can parse protocols correctly. (They know mac header length, and probably don't care about what is in it.) And another thing, some of Intel's drivers seem to use skb->protocol where vlan_get_protocol() is more suitable. I tested that at least igb/igbvf on I350 works with this patch set. Note: We can hand a double tagged packet with CHECKSUM_PARTIAL to a HW driver by creating a vlan device on a bridge device and enabling vlan_filtering of the bridge with 802.1ad protocol. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

vlan_get_protocol() could not get network protocol if a skb has a 802.1ad vlan tag or multiple vlans, which caused incorrect checksum calculation in several drivers. Fix vlan_get_protocol() to retrieve network protocol instead of incorrect vlan protocol. As the logic is the same as skb_network_protocol(), create a common helper function __vlan_get_protocol() and call it from existing functions.

When making use of RFC5061, section 4.2.4. for setting the primary IP address, we're passing a wrong parameter header to param_type2af(), resulting always in NULL being returned. At this point, param.p points to a sctp_addip_param struct, containing a sctp_paramhdr (type = 0xc004, length = var), and crr_id as a correlation id. Followed by that, as also presented in RFC5061 section 4.2.4., comes the actual sctp_addr_param, which also contains a sctp_paramhdr, but this time with the correct type SCTP_PARAM_IPV{4,6}_ADDRESS that param_type2af() can make use of. Since we already hold a pointer to addr_param from previous line, just reuse it for param_type2af().

The subscription bitmask passed via struct sockaddr_nl is converted to the group number when calling the netlink_bind() and netlink_unbind() callbacks. The conversion is however incorrect since bitmask (1 << 0) needs to be mapped to group number 1. Note that you cannot specify the group number 0 (usually known as _NONE) from setsockopt() using NETLINK_ADD_MEMBERSHIP since this is rejected through -EINVAL. This problem became noticeable since 97840cb6 ("netfilter: nfnetlink: fix insufficient validation in nfnetlink_bind") when binding to bitmask (1 << 0) in ctnetlink.

Arnd Bergmann says: ==================== net: driver fixes from arm randconfig builds These four patches are fallout from test builds on ARM. I have a few more of them in my backlog but have not yet confirmed them to still be valid. The first three patches are about incomplete dependencies on old drivers. One could backport them to the beginning of time in theory, but there is little value since nobody would run into these problems. The final patch is one I had submitted before together with the respective pcmcia patch but forgot to follow up on that. It's still a valid but relatively theoretical bug, because the previous behavior of the driver was just as broken as what we have in mainline. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

A recent patch tried to work around a valid warning for the use of a deprecated interface by blindly changing from the old pcmcia_request_exclusive_irq() interface to pcmcia_request_irq(). This driver has an interrupt handler that is not currently aware of shared interrupts, but can be easily converted to be. At the moment, the driver reads the interrupt status register repeatedly until it contains only zeroes in the interesting bits, and handles each bit individually. This patch adds the missing part of returning IRQ_NONE in case none of the bits are set to start with, so we can move on to the next interrupt source.

The ni65 and lance ethernet drivers manually program the ISA DMA controller that is only available on x86 PCs and a few compatible systems. Trying to build it on ARM results in this error: ni65.c: In function 'ni65_probe1': ni65.c:496:62: error: 'DMA1_STAT_REG' undeclared (first use in this function) ((inb(DMA1_STAT_REG) >> 4) & 0x0f) ^ ni65.c:496:62: note: each undeclared identifier is reported only once for each function it appears in ni65.c:497:63: error: 'DMA2_STAT_REG' undeclared (first use in this function) | (inb(DMA2_STAT_REG) & 0xf0); The DMA1_STAT_REG and DMA2_STAT_REG registers are only defined for alpha, mips, parisc, powerpc and x86, although it is not clear which subarchitectures actually have them at the correct location. This patch for now just disables it for ARM, to avoid randconfig build errors. We could also decide to limit it to the set of architectures on which it does compile, but that might look more deliberate than guessing based on where the drivers build.

The cosa driver is rather outdated and does not get built on most platforms because it requires the ISA_DMA_API symbol. However there are some ARM platforms that have ISA_DMA_API but no virt_to_bus, and they get this build error when enabling the ltpc driver. drivers/net/wan/cosa.c: In function 'tx_interrupt': drivers/net/wan/cosa.c:1768:3: error: implicit declaration of function 'virt_to_bus' unsigned long addr = virt_to_bus(cosa->txbuf); ^ The same problem exists for the Hostess SV-11 and Sealevel Systems 4021 drivers.

The cs89x0 driver can either be built as an ISA driver or a platform driver, the choice is controlled by the CS89x0_PLATFORM Kconfig symbol. Building the ISA driver on a system that does not have a way to map I/O ports fails with this error: drivers/built-in.o: In function `cs89x0_ioport_probe.constprop.1': :(.init.text+0x4794): undefined reference to `ioport_map' :(.init.text+0x4830): undefined reference to `ioport_unmap' This changes the Kconfig logic to take that option away and always force building the platform variant of this driver if CONFIG_HAS_IOPORT_MAP is not set. This is the only correct choice in this case, and it avoids the build error. Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

When we've run out of space in the output buffer to store more data, we will call zlib_deflate with a NULL output buffer until we've consumed remaining input. When this happens, olen contains the size the output buffer would have consumed iff we'd have had enough room. This can later cause skb_over_panic when ppp_generic skb_put()s the returned length.

Nicolas Dichtel says: ==================== netns: audit netdevice creation with IFLA_NET_NS_[PID|FD] When one of these attributes is set, the netdevice is created into the netns pointed by IFLA_NET_NS_[PID|FD] (see the call to rtnl_create_link() in rtnl_newlink()). Let's call this netns the dest_net. After this creation, if the newlink handler exists, it is called with a netns argument that points to the netns where the netlink message has been received (called src_net in the code) which is the link netns. Hence, with one of these attributes, it's possible to create a x-netns netdevice. Here is the result of my code review: - all ip tunnels (sit, ipip, ip6_tunnels, gre[tap][v6], ip_vti[6]) does not really allows to use this feature: the netdevice is created in the dest_net and the src_net is completely ignored in the newlink handler. - VLAN properly handles this x-netns creation. - bridge ignores src_net, which seems fine (NETIF_F_NETNS_LOCAL is set). - CAIF subsystem is not clear for me (I don't know how it works), but it seems to wrongly use src_net. Patch #1 tries to fix this, but it was done only by code review (and only compile-tested), so please carefully review it. I may miss something. - HSR subsystem uses src_net to parse IFLA_HSR_SLAVE[1|2], but the netdevice has the flag NETIF_F_NETNS_LOCAL, so the question is: does this netdevice really supports x-netns? If not, the newlink handler should use the dest_net instead of src_net, I can provide the patch. - ieee802154 uses also src_net and does not have NETIF_F_NETNS_LOCAL. Same question: does this netdevice really supports x-netns? - bonding ignores src_net and flag NETIF_F_NETNS_LOCAL is set, ie x-netns is not supported. Fine. - CAN does not support rtnl/newlink, ok. - ipvlan uses src_net and does not have NETIF_F_NETNS_LOCAL. After looking at the code, it seems that this drivers support x-netns. Am I right? - macvlan/macvtap uses src_net and seems to have x-netns support. - team ignores src_net and has the flag NETIF_F_NETNS_LOCAL, ie x-netns is not supported. Ok. - veth uses src_net and have x-netns support ;-) Ok. - VXLAN didn't properly handle this. The link netns (vxlan->net) is the src_net and not dest_net (see patch #2). Note that it was already possible to create a x-netns vxlan before the commit f01ec1c0 ("vxlan: add x-netns support") but the nedevice remains broken. To summarize: - CAIF patch must be carefully reviewed - for HSR, ieee802154, ipvlan: is x-netns supported? ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Rename the netns to src_net to avoid confusion with the netns where the interface stands. The user may specify IFLA_NET_NS_[PID|FD] to create a x-netns netndevice: IFLA_NET_NS_[PID|FD] points to the netns where the netdevice stands and src_net to the link netns. Note that before commit f01ec1c0 ("vxlan: add x-netns support"), it was possible to create a x-netns vxlan netdevice, but the netdevice was not operational.

src_net points to the netns where the netlink message has been received. This netns may be different from the netns where the interface is created (because the user may add IFLA_NET_NS_[PID|FD]). In this case, src_net is the link netns. It seems wrong to override the netns in the newlink() handler because if it was not already src_net, it means that the user explicitly asks to create the netdevice in another netns.

Alternately, the skb->len check can be moved inside rtnl_notify. For the bridge vlan case described in 92081, there is also a fix needed in bridge driver to generate a proper notification.

Neal Cardwell says: ==================== fix stretch ACK bugs in TCP CUBIC and Reno This patch series fixes the TCP CUBIC and Reno congestion control modules to properly handle stretch ACKs in their respective additive increase modes, and in the transitions from slow start to additive increase. This finishes the project started by commit 9f9843a7 ("tcp: properly handle stretch acks in slow start"), which fixed behavior for TCP congestion control when handling stretch ACKs in slow start mode. Motivation: In the Jan 2015 netdev thread 'BW regression after "tcp: refine TSO autosizing"', Eyal Perry documented a regression that Eric Dumazet determined was caused by improper handling of TCP stretch ACKs. Background: LRO, GRO, delayed ACKs, and middleboxes can cause "stretch ACKs" that cover more than the RFC-specified maximum of 2 packets. These stretch ACKs can cause serious performance shortfalls in common congestion control algorithms, like Reno and CUBIC, which were designed and tuned years ago with receiver hosts that were not using LRO or GRO, and were instead ACKing every other packet. Testing: at Google we have been using this approach for handling stretch ACKs for CUBIC datacenter and Internet traffic for several years, with good results. v2: * fixed return type of tcp_slow_start() to be u32 instead of int ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

This patch fixes a bug in CUBIC that causes cwnd to increase slightly too slowly when multiple ACKs arrive in the same jiffy. If cwnd is supposed to increase at a rate of more than once per jiffy, then CUBIC was sometimes too slow. Because the bic_target is calculated for a future point in time, calculated with time in jiffies, the cwnd can increase over the course of the jiffy while the bic_target calculated as the proper CUBIC cwnd at time t=tcp_time_stamp+rtt does not increase, because tcp_time_stamp only increases on jiffy tick boundaries. So since the cnt is set to: ca->cnt = cwnd / (bic_target - cwnd); as cwnd increases but bic_target does not increase due to jiffy granularity, the cnt becomes too large, causing cwnd to increase too slowly. For example: - suppose at the beginning of a jiffy, cwnd=40, bic_target=44 - so CUBIC sets: ca->cnt = cwnd / (bic_target - cwnd) = 40 / (44 - 40) = 40/4 = 10 - suppose we get 10 acks, each for 1 segment, so tcp_cong_avoid_ai() increases cwnd to 41 - so CUBIC sets: ca->cnt = cwnd / (bic_target - cwnd) = 41 / (44 - 41) = 41 / 3 = 13 So now CUBIC will wait for 13 packets to be ACKed before increasing cwnd to 42, insted of 10 as it should. The fix is to avoid adjusting the slope (determined by ca->cnt) multiple times within a jiffy, and instead skip to compute the Reno cwnd, the "TCP friendliness" code path.

tcp_cong_avoid_ai() was too timid (snd_cwnd increased too slowly) on "stretch ACKs" -- cases where the receiver ACKed more than 1 packet in a single ACK. For example, suppose w is 10 and we get a stretch ACK for 20 packets, so acked is 20. We ought to increase snd_cwnd by 2 (since acked/w = 20/10 = 2), but instead we were only increasing cwnd by 1.

It also changes tcp_slow_start() to return the number of packet ACK "credits" that were not processed in slow start mode, and can be processed by the congestion control module in additive increase mode.

In the case when alloc_netdev fails we return NULL to a caller. But there is no check for NULL in the probe drivers. This patch changes NULL to an error pointer.

With the commit d75b1ade ("net: less interrupt masking in NAPI") napi repoll is done only when work_done == budget. When in busy_poll is we return 0 in napi_poll. We should return budget.

Currently we try to clear EDRRR and EDTRR and immediately continue to free buffers. This is unsafe because: - In general, register writes are not serialised with DMA, so we still have to wait for DMA to complete somehow - The R8A7790 (R-Car H2) manual states that the TX running flag cannot be cleared by writing to EDTRR - The same manual states that clearing the RX running flag only stops RX DMA at the next packet boundary I applied this patch to the driver to detect DMA writes to freed buffers: > --- a/drivers/net/ethernet/renesas/sh_eth.c > +++ b/drivers/net/ethernet/renesas/sh_eth.c > @@ -1098,7 +1098,14 @@ static void sh_eth_ring_free(struct net_device *ndev) > /* Free Rx skb ringbuffer */ > if (mdp->rx_skbuff) { > for (i = 0; i < mdp->num_rx_ring; i++) > + memcpy(mdp->rx_skbuff[i]->data, > + "Hello, world", 12); > + msleep(100); > + for (i = 0; i < mdp->num_rx_ring; i++) { > + WARN_ON(memcmp(mdp->rx_skbuff[i]->data, > + "Hello, world", 12)); > dev_kfree_skb(mdp->rx_skbuff[i]); > + } > } > kfree(mdp->rx_skbuff); > mdp->rx_skbuff = NULL; then ran the loop: while ethtool -G eth0 rx 128 ; ethtool -G eth0 rx 64; do echo -n .; done and 'ping -f' toward the sh_eth port from another machine. The warning fired several times a minute. To fix these issues: - Deactivate all TX descriptors rather than writing to EDTRR - As there seems to be no way of telling when RX DMA is stopped, perform a soft reset to ensure that both DMA enginess are stopped - To reduce the possibility of the reset truncating a transmitted frame, disable egress and wait a reasonable time to reach a packet boundary before resetting - Update statistics before resetting (The 'reasonable time' does not allow for CS/CD in half-duplex mode, but half-duplex no longer seems reasonable!)
