The array data is only populated with valid information from userspace if cmd != SIOCDEVPRIVATE, other cases the array contains garbage on the stack. The subsequent switch statement acts on a subcommand in data[0] which could be any garbage value if cmd is SIOCDEVPRIVATE which seems incorrect to me. Instead, just return EOPNOTSUPP for the case where cmd == SIOCDEVPRIVATE to avoid this issue. As a side note, I suspect that the original intention of the code was for this ioctl to work just for cmd == SIOCDEVPRIVATE (and the current logic is reversed). However, I don't wont to change the current semantics in case any userspace code relies on this existing behaviour.

This reverts commit cd8966e7. The duplicate CHANGEADDR event message is sent regardless of link status whereas the setlink changes only generate a notification when the link is up. Not sending a notification when the link is down breaks dhcpcd which only processes hwaddr changes when the link is down.

Commit f39908d3 ('net: dsa: mv88e6xxx: Set the CMODE for mv88e6390 ports 9 & 10') added support for setting the CMODE for the 6390X family, but only enabled it for 9290 and 6390 - and left out 6390X. Fix support for setting the CMODE on 6390X also by assigning mv88e6390x_port_set_cmode() to the .port_set_cmode function pointer in mv88e6390x_ops too.

Unconditional reset dwmac before HW init if reset controller is present. In existing implementation we reset dwmac only after second module probing: (module load -> unload -> load again [reset happens]) Now we reset dwmac at every module load: (module load [reset happens] -> unload -> load again [reset happens]) Also some reset controllers have only reset callback instead of assert + deassert callbacks pair, so handle this case.

Pablo Neira Ayuso says: ==================== Netfilter fixes for net The following patchset contains Netfilter fixes for your net tree, they are: 1) Missing netlink message sanity check in nfnetlink, patch from Mateusz Jurczyk. 2) We now have netfilter per-netns hooks, so let's kill global hook infrastructure, this infrastructure is known to be racy with netns. We don't care about out of tree modules. Patch from Florian Westphal. 3) find_appropriate_src() is buggy when colissions happens after the conversion of the nat bysource to rhashtable. Also from Florian. 4) Remove forward chain in nf_tables arp family, it's useless and it is causing quite a bit of confusion, from Florian Westphal. 5) nf_ct_remove_expect() is called with the wrong parameter, causing kernel oops, patch from Florian Westphal. ==================== Signed-off-by: -

Eric noticed that in udp_recvmsg() we still need to access skb->dst while processing the IP options. Since commit 0a463c78 ("udp: avoid a cache miss on dequeue") skb->dst is no more available at recvmsg() time and bad things will happen if we enter the relevant code path. This commit address the issue, avoid clearing skb->dst if any IP options are present into the relevant skb. Since the IP CB is contained in the first skb cacheline, we can test it to decide to leverage the consume_stateless_skb() optimization, without measurable additional cost in the faster path. v1 -> v2: updated commit message tags Fixes: 0a463c78 ("udp: avoid a cache miss on dequeue") Reported-by:

The global percpu variable ppp_xmit_recursion is used to detect the ppp xmit recursion to avoid the deadlock, which is caused by one CPU tries to lock the xmit lock twice. But it would report false recursion when one CPU wants to send the skb from two different PPP devices, like one L2TP on the PPPoE. It is a normal case actually. Now use one percpu member of struct ppp instead of the gloable variable to detect the xmit recursion of one ppp device. Fixes: 55454a56 ("ppp: avoid dealock on recursive xmit") Signed-off-by:

arp packets cannot be forwarded. They can be bridged, but then they can be filtered using either ebtables or nftables bridge family.

When doing initial conversion to rhashtable I replaced the bucket walk with a single rhashtable_lookup_fast(). When moving to rhlist I failed to properly walk the list of identical tuples, but that is what is needed for this to work correctly. The table contains the original tuples, so the reply tuples are all distinct. We currently decide that mapping is (not) in range only based on the first entry, but in case its not we need to try the reply tuple of the next entry until we either find an in-range mapping or we checked all the entries. This bug makes nat core attempt collision resolution while it might be able to use the mapping as-is. Fixes: 870190a9 ("netfilter: nat: convert nat bysrc hash to rhashtable") Reported-by:

Verify that the length of the socket buffer is sufficient to cover the nlmsghdr structure before accessing the nlh->nlmsg_len field for further input sanitization. If the client only supplies 1-3 bytes of data in sk_buff, then nlh->nlmsg_len remains partially uninitialized and contains leftover memory from the corresponding kernel allocation. Operating on such data may result in indeterminate evaluation of the nlmsg_len < NLMSG_HDRLEN expression. The bug was discovered by a runtime instrumentation designed to detect use of uninitialized memory in the kernel. The patch prevents this and other similar tools (e.g. KMSAN) from flagging this behavior in the future. Signed-off-by:

Doug Berger says: ==================== bcmgenet: Fragmented SKB corrections Two issues were observed in a review of the bcmgenet driver support for fragmented SKBs which are addressed by this patch set. The first addresses a problem that could occur if the driver is not able to DMA map a fragment of the SKB. This would be a highly unusual event but it would leave the hardware descriptors in an invalid state which should be prevented. The second is a hazard that could occur if the driver is able to reclaim the first control block of a fragmented SKB before all of its fragments have completed processing by the hardware. In this case the SKB could be freed leading to reuse of memory that is still in use by hardware. ==================== Signed-off-by: -
Doug Berger authored
Since the skb is attached to the first control block of a fragmented skb it is possible that the skb could be freed when reclaiming that control block before all fragments of the skb have been consumed by the hardware and unmapped. This commit introduces first_cb and last_cb pointers to the skb control block used by the driver to keep track of which transmit control blocks within a transmit ring are the first and last ones associated with the skb. It then splits the bcmgenet_free_cb() function into transmit (bcmgenet_free_tx_cb) and receive (bcmgenet_free_rx_cb) versions that can handle the unmapping of dma mapped memory and cleaning up the corresponding control block structure so that the skb is only freed after the last associated transmit control block is reclaimed.

In case we fail to map a single fragment, we would be leaving the transmit ring populated with stale entries. This commit introduces the helper function bcmgenet_put_txcb() which takes care of rewinding the per-ring write pointer back to where we left. It also consolidates the functionality of bcmgenet_xmit_single() and bcmgenet_xmit_frag() into the bcmgenet_xmit() function to make the unmapping of control blocks cleaner.

Fixes the following behavior: for connections that had no RTT sample at the time of initializing congestion control, BBR was initializing the pacing rate to a high nominal rate (based an a guess of RTT=1ms, in case this is LAN traffic). Then BBR never adjusted the pacing rate downward upon obtaining an actual RTT sample, if the connection never filled the pipe (e.g. all sends were small app-limited writes()). This fix adjusts the pacing rate upon obtaining the first RTT sample. Fixes: 0f8782ea ("tcp_bbr: add BBR congestion control") Signed-off-by:

Fix a corner case noticed by Eric Dumazet, where BBR's setting sk->sk_pacing_rate to 0 during initialization could theoretically cause packets in the sending host to hang if there were packets "in flight" in the pacing infrastructure at the time the BBR congestion control state is initialized. This could occur if the pacing infrastructure happened to race with bbr_init() in a way such that the pacer read the 0 rather than the immediately following non-zero pacing rate.

Introduce a helper to initialize the BBR pacing rate unconditionally, based on the current cwnd and RTT estimate. This is a pure refactor, but is needed for two following fixes. Fixes: 0f8782ea ("tcp_bbr: add BBR congestion control") Signed-off-by:

In bbr_set_pacing_rate(), which decides whether to cut the pacing rate, there was some code that considered exiting STARTUP to be equivalent to the notion of filling the pipe (i.e., bbr_full_bw_reached()). Specifically, as the code was structured, exiting STARTUP and going into PROBE_RTT could cause us to cut the pacing rate down to something silly and low, based on whatever bandwidth samples we've had so far, when it's possible that all of them have been small app-limited bandwidth samples that are not representative of the bandwidth available in the path. (The code was correct at the time it was written, but the state machine changed without this spot being adjusted correspondingly.)
