Family was hard-coded to AF_INET but should be daddr->family. This fixes crashes when unlinking ipv6 peer entries, since the unlink code was looking up the base pointer properly. Reported-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Suppose that several linear skbs of the same flow were received by GRO. They were thus merged into one skb with a frag_list. Then a new skb of the same flow arrives, but it is a paged skb with data starting in its frags[]. Before adding the skb to the frag_list skb_gro_receive() will of course adjust the skb to throw away the headers. It correctly modifies the page_offset and size of the frag, but it leaves incorrect information in the skb: ->data_len is not decreased at all. ->len is decreased only by headlen, as if no change were done to the frag. Later in a receiving process this causes skb_copy_datagram_iovec() to return -EFAULT and this is seen in userspace as the result of the recv() syscall. In practice the bug can be reproduced with the sfc driver. By default the driver uses an adaptive scheme when it switches between using napi_gro_receive() (with skbs) and napi_gro_frags() (with pages). The bug is reproduced when under rx load with enough successful GRO merging the driver decides to switch from the former to the latter. Manual control is also possible, so reproducing this is easy with netcat: - on machine1 (with sfc): nc -l 12345 > /dev/null - on machine2: nc machine1 12345 < /dev/zero - on machine1: echo 1 > /sys/module/sfc/parameters/rx_alloc_method # use skbs echo 2 > /sys/module/sfc/parameters/rx_alloc_method # use pages - See that nc has quit suddenly. [v2: Modified by Eric Dumazet to avoid advancing skb->data past the end and to use a temporary variable.] Signed-off-by: Michal Schmidt <mschmidt@redhat.com> Acked-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Commit 941666c2 "net: RCU conversion of dev_getbyhwaddr() and arp_ioctl()" introduced a regression, reported by Jamie Heilman. "arp -Ds 192.168.2.41 eth0 pub" triggered the ASSERT_RTNL() assert in pneigh_lookup() Removing RTNL requirement from arp_ioctl() was a mistake, just revert that part.

Fix a shutdown regression caused by 2a2d31c8 ("intel_idle: open broadcast clock event"). The clockevent framework can automatically shutdown broadcast timers for hotremove CPUs. And we get a shutdown regression when we shutdown broadcast timer for hot remove CPU, so just delete some code. Also fix some section mismatch.

Michael Witten and Christian Kujau reported that the autogroup scheduling feature hurts interactivity on their UP systems. It turns out that this is an older bug in the group scheduling code, and the wider appeal provided by the autogroup feature exposed it more prominently. When on UP with FAIR_GROUP_SCHED enabled, tune shares only affect tg->shares, but is not reflected in tg->se->load. The reason is that update_cfs_shares() does nothing on UP. So introduce update_cfs_shares() for UP && FAIR_GROUP_SCHED. This issue was found when enable autogroup scheduling was enabled, but it is an older bug that also exists on cgroup.cpu on UP.

Now BUILD_BUG_ON() can handle optimizable constants, we don't need MAYBE_BUILD_BUG_ON any more. Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
-
Rusty Russell authored
BUILD_BUG_ON used to use the optimizer to do code elimination or fail at link time; it was changed to first the size of a negative array (a nicer compile time error), then (in 8c87df45) to a bitfield. This forced us to change some non-constant cases to MAYBE_BUILD_BUG_ON(); as Jan points out in that commit, it didn't work as intended anyway. bitfields: needs a literal constant at parse time, and can't be put under "if (__builtin_constant_p(x))" for example. negative array: can handle anything, but if the compiler can't tell it's a constant, silently has no effect. link time: breaks link if the compiler can't determine the value, but the linker output is not usually as informative as a compiler error. If we use the negative-array-size method *and* the link time trick, we get the ability to use BUILD_BUG_ON() under __builtin_constant_p() branches, and maximal ability for the compiler to detect errors at build time. We also document it thoroughly. Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au> Cc: Jan Beulich <JBeulich@novell.com> Acked-by: Hollis Blanchard <hollisb@us.ibm.com>

Dmitry Torokhov authored
Currently only drivers that are built as modules have their versions shown in /sys/module/<module_name>/version, but this information might also be useful for built-in drivers as well. This especially important for drivers that do not define any parameters - such drivers, if built-in, are completely invisible from userspace. This patch changes MODULE_VERSION() macro so that in case when we are compiling built-in module, version information is stored in a separate section. Kernel then uses this data to create 'version' sysfs attribute in the same fashion it creates attributes for module parameters.

commit 3f0d3d01 adds a check for PNP device id to the common tpm_tis_init() function, which in some cases (force=1) will be called without the device being a member of a pnp_dev. Oopsing and panics ensue. Move the test up to before the call to tpm_tis_init(), since it just modifies a global variable anyway.

If duration variable value is 0 at this point, it's because chip->vendor.duration wasn't filled by tpm_get_timeouts() yet. This patch sets then the lowest timeout just to give enough time for tpm_get_timeouts() to further succeed. This fix avoids long boot times in case another entity attempts to send commands to the TPM when the TPM isn't accessible.
