We drop a connection request if the accept backlog is full and there are sufficient packets in the syn queue to warrant starting drops. Increment the appropriate counters so this isn't silent, for accurate stats and help in debugging. This patch assumes LINUX_MIB_LISTENDROPS is a superset of/includes the counter LINUX_MIB_LISTENOVERFLOWS.

We forbid polling, writing and reading when the file were detached, this may complex the user in several cases: - when guest pass some buffers to vhost/qemu and then disable some queues, host/qemu needs to do its own cleanup on those buffers which is complex sometimes. We can do this simply by allowing a user can still write to an disabled queue. Write to an disabled queue will cause the packet pass to the kernel and read will get nothing. - align the polling behavior with macvtap which never fails when the queue is created. This can simplify the polling errors handling of its user (e.g vhost) We can simply achieve this by don't assign NULL to tfile->tun when detached.

Currently, the polling errors were ignored, which can lead following issues: - vhost remove itself unconditionally from waitqueue when stopping the poll, this may crash the kernel since the previous attempt of starting may fail to add itself to the waitqueue - userspace may think the backend were successfully set even when the polling failed. Solve this by: - check poll->wqh before trying to remove from waitqueue - report polling errors in vhost_poll_start(), tx_poll_start(), the return value will be checked and returned when userspace want to set the backend After this fix, there still could be a polling failure after backend is set, it will addressed by the next patch.

The delay calculation with the rate extension introduces in v3.3 does not properly work, if other packets are still queued for transmission. For the delay calculation to work, both delay types (latency and delay introduces by rate limitation) have to be handled differently. The latency delay for a packet can overlap with the delay of other packets. The delay introduced by the rate however is separate, and can only start, once all other rate-introduced delays finished. Latency delay is from same distribution for each packet, rate delay depends on the packet size. .: latency delay -: rate delay x: additional delay we have to wait since another packet is currently transmitted .....---- Packet 1 .....xx------ Packet 2 .....------ Packet 3 ^^^^^ latency stacks ^^ rate delay doesn't stack ^^ latency stacks -----> time When a packet is enqueued, we first consider the latency delay. If other packets are already queued, we can reduce the latency delay until the last packet in the queue is send, however the latency delay cannot be <0, since this would mean that the rate is overcommitted. The new reference point is the time at which the last packet will be send. To find the time, when the packet should be send, the rate introduces delay has to be added on top of that.

Tom Parkin authored
If a tunnel socket is created by userspace, l2tp hooks the socket destructor in order to clean up resources if userspace closes the socket or crashes. It also caches a pointer to the struct sock for use in the data path and in the netlink interface. While it is safe to use the cached sock pointer in the data path, where the skb references keep the socket alive, it is not safe to use it elsewhere as such access introduces a race with userspace closing the socket. In particular, l2tp_tunnel_delete is prone to oopsing if a multithreaded userspace application closes a socket at the same time as sending a netlink delete command for the tunnel. This patch fixes this oops by forcing l2tp_tunnel_delete to explicitly look up a tunnel socket held by userspace using sockfd_lookup().

With lazy interrupt, we always call __check_irq_replaysome with decrementers_next_tb to check if we need to replay timer interrupt. So in hotplug case we also need to set decrementers_next_tb as MAX to make sure __check_irq_replay don't replay timer interrupt when return as we expect, otherwise we'll trap here infinitely.

commit f96972f2 "kernel/sys.c: call disable_nonboot_cpus() in kernel_restart()" added a call to disable_nonboot_cpus() on kernel_restart(), which tries to shutdown all the CPUs except the first one. The issue with the PA Semi, is that it does not support CPU hotplug. When the call is made to __cpu_down(), it calls the notifiers CPU_DOWN_PREPARE, and then tries to take the CPU down. One of the notifiers to the CPU hotplug code, is the cpufreq. The DOWN_PREPARE will call __cpufreq_remove_dev() which calls cpufreq_driver->exit. The PA Semi exit handler unmaps regions of I/O that is used by an interrupt that goes off constantly (system_reset_common, but it goes off during normal system operations too). I'm not sure exactly what this interrupt does. Running a simple function trace, you can see it goes off quite a bit: # tracer: function # # TASK-PID CPU# TIMESTAMP FUNCTION # | | | | | <idle>-0 [001] 1558.859363: .pasemi_system_reset_exception <-.system_reset_exception <idle>-0 [000] 1558.860112: .pasemi_system_reset_exception <-.system_reset_exception <idle>-0 [000] 1558.861109: .pasemi_system_reset_exception <-.system_reset_exception <idle>-0 [001] 1558.861361: .pasemi_system_reset_exception <-.system_reset_exception <idle>-0 [000] 1558.861437: .pasemi_system_reset_exception <-.system_reset_exception When the region is unmapped, the system crashes with: Disabling non-boot CPUs ...

The IOMMU may stop processing page translations due to a perceived lack of credits for writing upstream peripheral page service request (PPR) or event logs. If the L2B miscellaneous clock gating feature is enabled the IOMMU does not properly register credits after the log request has completed, leading to a potential system hang. BIOSes are supposed to disable L2B micellaneous clock gating by setting L2_L2B_CK_GATE_CONTROL[CKGateL2BMiscDisable](D0F2xF4_x90[2]) = 1b.

To resolve this problem, adding a SCTP_CMD_NEW_STATE cmd to the command list before SCTP_CMD_REPLY cmd, this will set the restart association to SCTP_STATE_ESTABLISHED state properly and also avoid I-bit being set in the DATA chunk header when COOKIE_ACK is bundled with DATA chunks.

We did this for IPv4 in b49d3c1e "net: ipmr: limit MRT_TABLE identifiers" but we need to do it for IPv6 as well. On IPv6 the name is "pim6reg" instead of "pimreg" so there is one less digit allowed. The strcpy() is in ip6mr_reg_vif(). Signed-off-by: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

commit 9992c2e2 (net: cdc_ncm: workaround for missing CDC Union) added code to lookup an IAD for the interface we are probing. This is redundant. The USB core has already done the lookup and saved the result in the USB interface struct. Use that instead.

We never want multicast MAC addresses in the Distributed ARP Table, so it's best to completely ignore ARP packets containing them where we expect unicast addresses.

There are more types of IP addresses that may appear in ARP packets that we don't want to process. While some of these should never appear in sane ARP packets, a 0.0.0.0 source is used for duplicate address detection and thus seen quite often.

The callers of batadv_dat_snoop_incoming_arp_reply() assume the skb has been freed when it returns true; fix this by calling kfree_skb before returning as it is done in batadv_dat_snoop_incoming_arp_request().

John W. Linville says: ==================== This is a batch of fixes intende for the 3.8 stream. Regarding the iwlwifi bits, Johannes says this: "Please pull to get a single fix from Emmanuel for a bug I introduced due to misunderstanding the code." Regarding the mac80211 bits, Johannes says this: "I have a few small fixes for you: * some mesh frames would cause encryption warnings -- fixes from Bob * scanning would pretty much break an association if we transmitted anything to the AP while scanning -- fix from Stanislaw * mode injection was broken by channel contexts -- fix from Felix * FT roaming was broken: hardware crypto would get disabled by it" Along with that, a handful of other fixes confined to specific drivers. Avinash Patil fixes a typo in a NULL check in mwifiex. Larry Finger fixes a build warning in rtlwifi. Seems safe... Stanislaw Gruszka fixes iwlegacy to prevent microcode errors when switching from IBSS mode to STA mode. Felix Fietkau provides a trio of ath9k fixes related to proper tuning. Please let me know if there are problems! ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Ben Greear reported crashes in ip_rcv_finish() on a stress test involving many macvlans. We tracked the bug to a dst use after free. ip_rcv_finish() was calling dst->input() and got garbage for dst->input value. It appears the bug is in loopback driver, lacking a skb_dst_force() before calling netif_rx(). As a result, a non refcounted dst, normally protected by a RCU read_lock section, was escaping this section and could be freed before the packet being processed.
