In-flight DMA from 1st kernel could continue going in kdump kernel. New io-page table has been created before bnx2 does reset at open stage. We have to wait for the in-flight DMA to complete to avoid it look up into the newly created io-page table at probe stage.

This reverts commit 3e1be7ad. When people build bnx2 driver into kernel, it will fail to detect and load firmware because firmware is contained in initramfs and initramfs has not been uncompressed yet during do_initcalls. So revert commit 3e1be7ad and work out a new way in the later patch. Signed-off-by: Baoquan He <bhe@redhat.com> Acked-by: Paul Menzel <pmenzel@molgen.mpg.de> Signed-off-by: David S.

efx_copy_channel() doesn't correctly clear the napi_hash related state. This means that when napi_hash_add is called for that channel nothing is done, and we are left with a copy of the napi_hash_node from the old channel. When we later call napi_hash_del() on this channel we have a stale napi_hash_node. Corruption is only seen when there are multiple entries in one of the napi_hash lists. This is made more likely by having a very large number of channels. Testing was carried out with 512 channels - 32 channels on each of 16 ports. This failure typically appears as protection faults within napi_by_id() or napi_hash_add(). efx_copy_channel() is only used when tx or rx ring sizes are changed (ethtool -G).

The device's neighbour table is periodically dumped in order to update the kernel about active neighbours. A single dump session may span multiple queries, until the response carries less records than requested or when a record (can contain up to four neighbour entries) is not full. Current code stops the session when the number of returned records is zero, which can result in infinite loop in case of high packet rate. Fix this by stopping the session according to the above logic.

If the physical link is down and the VF virtual link is set to "enable", the current code does not always work. If the link is down but the cable is attached, the firmware returns LINK_SIGNAL instead of NO_LINK. The current code is treating LINK_SIGNAL as link up.

This reverts commit cf00713a ("include/uapi/linux/atm_zatm.h: include linux/time.h"). This attempted to fix userspace breakage that no longer existed when the patch was merged. Almost one year earlier, commit 70ba07b6 ("atm: remove 'struct zatm_t_hist'") deleted the struct in question.

With syzkaller help, Marco Grassi found a bug in TCP stack, crashing in tcp_collapse() Root cause is that sk_filter() can truncate the incoming skb, but TCP stack was not really expecting this to happen. It probably was expecting a simple DROP or ACCEPT behavior. We first need to make sure no part of TCP header could be removed. Then we need to adjust TCP_SKB_CB(skb)->end_seq Many thanks to syzkaller team and Marco for giving us a reproducer.

In v2.6, ip_rt_redirect() calls arp_bind_neighbour() which returns 0 and then the state of the neigh for the new_gw is checked. If the state isn't valid then the redirected route is deleted. This behavior is maintained up to v3.5.7 by check_peer_redirect() because rt->rt_gateway is assigned to peer->redirect_learned.a4 before calling ipv4_neigh_lookup(). After commit 5943634f ("ipv4: Maintain redirect and PMTU info in struct rtable again."), ipv4_neigh_lookup() is performed without the rt_gateway assigned to the new_gw. In the case when rt_gateway (old_gw) isn't zero, the function uses it as the key. The neigh is most likely valid since the old_gw is the one that sends the ICMP redirect message. Then the new_gw is assigned to fib_nh_exception. The problem is: the new_gw ARP may never gets resolved and the traffic is blackholed. So, use the new_gw for neigh lookup. Changes from v1: - use __ipv4_neigh_lookup instead (per Eric Dumazet). Fixes: 5943634f ("ipv4: Maintain redirect and PMTU info in struct rtable again.")

The test creates two netns, ns1 and ns2. The host (the default netns) has an ipip or ip6tnl dev configured for tunneling traffic to the ns2. ping VIPS from ns1 <----> host <--tunnel--> ns2 (VIPs at loopback) The test is to have ns1 pinging VIPs configured at the loopback interface in ns2. The VIPs are 10.10.1.102 and 2401:face::66 (which are configured at lo@ns2). [Note: 0x66 => 102]. At ns1, the VIPs are routed _via_ the host. At the host, bpf programs are installed at the veth to redirect packets from a veth to the ipip/ip6tnl. The test is configured in a way so that both ingress and egress can be tested. At ns2, the ipip/ip6tnl dev is configured with the local and remote address specified. The return path is routed to the dev ipip/ip6tnl. During egress test, the host also locally tests pinging the VIPs to ensure that bpf_redirect at egress also works for the direct egress (i.e. not forwarding from dev ve1 to ve2).

If the bpf program calls bpf_redirect(dev, 0) and dev is an ipip/ip6tnl, it currently includes the mac header. e.g. If dev is ipip, the end result is IP-EthHdr-IP instead of IP-IP. The fix is to pull the mac header. At ingress, skb_postpull_rcsum() is not needed because the ethhdr should have been pulled once already and then got pushed back just before calling the bpf_prog. At egress, this patch calls skb_postpull_rcsum(). If bpf_redirect(dev, BPF_F_INGRESS) is called, it also fails now because it calls dev_forward_skb() which eventually calls eth_type_trans(skb, dev). The eth_type_trans() will set skb->type = PACKET_OTHERHOST because the mac address does not match the redirecting dev->dev_addr. The PACKET_OTHERHOST will eventually cause the ip_rcv() errors out. To fix this, ____dev_forward_skb() is added. Joint work with Daniel Borkmann.

Since now, the table with same id in multiple netnamespaces were squashed to a single virtual router. That is not only incorrect, it also causes error messages when trying to use RALUE register to do double remove of FIB entries, like this one: mlxsw_spectrum 0000:03:00.0: EMAD reg access failed (tid=facb831c00007b20,reg_id=8013(ralue),type=write,status=7(bad parameter)) Since we don't allow ports to change namespaces (NETIF_F_NETNS_LOCAL), and the infrastructure is not yet prepared to handle netnamespaces, just ignore FIB notification events for non-init namespaces. That is clear to do since we don't need to offload them.

__neigh_create function works in a different way than assumed. It passes "n" as a parameter to ndo_neigh_construct. But this "n" might be destroyed right away before __neigh_create() returns in case there is already another neighbour struct in the hashtable with the same dev and primary key. That is not expected by mlxsw_sp_router_neigh_construct() and the stored "n" points to freed memory, eventually leading to crash. Fix this by doing tight 1:1 coupling between neighbour struct and internal driver neigh_entry. That allows to narrow down the key in internal driver hashtable to do lookups by "n" only.
