Clearing the 'inet_num' field is necessary and safe if and only if the socket is not bound. The MPTCP protocol calls the destroy helper on bound sockets, as tcp_v{4,6}_syn_recv_sock completed successfully. Move the clearing of such field out of the common code, otherwise the MPTCP MP_JOIN error path will find the wrong 'inet_num' value on socket disposal, __inet_put_port() will acquire the wrong lock and bind_node removal could race with other modifiers possibly corrupting the bind hash table.

Th referenced change added an extra hw reset to rtl8169_net_suspend() what makes WoL fail on few chip versions. Therefore skip the extra reset if we're going down and WoL is enabled. In rtl_shutdown() rtl8169_hw_reset() is called by rtl8169_net_suspend() already if needed, therefore avoid issues issue by removing the extra call. The fix was tested on a system with RTL8168g. Meanwhile rtl8169_hw_reset() does more than a hw reset and should be renamed. But that's net-next material.

The u64_stats mechanism uses sequence counters to protect against 64-bit values tearing on 32-bit architectures. Updating such statistics is a sequence counter write side critical section. Preemption must be disabled before entering this seqcount write critical section. Failing to do so, the seqcount read side can preempt the write side section and spin for the entire scheduler tick. If that reader belongs to a real-time scheduling class, it can spin forever and the kernel will livelock. Document this statistics update side non-preemptibility requirement. Reword the introductory paragraph to highlight u64_stats raison d'être: 64-bit values tearing protection on 32-bit architectures. Divide documentation on a basis of internal design vs. usage constraints. Reword the u64_stats header file top comment to always mention "Reader" or "Writer" at the start of each bullet point, making it easier to follow which side each point is actually for. Clarify the statement "whole thing is a NOOP on 64bit arches or UP kernels". For 32-bit UP kernels, preemption is always disabled for the statistics read side section. Signed-off-by: Ahmed S.

Sequence counters write paths are critical sections that must never be preempted, and blocking, even for CONFIG_PREEMPTION=n, is not allowed. Commit 5dbe7c17 ("net: fix kernel deadlock with interface rename and netdev name retrieval.") handled a deadlock, observed with CONFIG_PREEMPTION=n, where the devnet_rename seqcount read side was infinitely spinning: it got scheduled after the seqcount write side blocked inside its own critical section. To fix that deadlock, among other issues, the commit added a cond_resched() inside the read side section. While this will get the non-preemptible kernel eventually unstuck, the seqcount reader is fully exhausting its slice just spinning -- until TIF_NEED_RESCHED is set. The fix is also still broken: if the seqcount reader belongs to a real-time scheduling policy, it can spin forever and the kernel will livelock. Disabling preemption over the seqcount write side critical section will not work: inside it are a number of GFP_KERNEL allocations and mutex locking through the drivers/base/ :: device_rename() call chain. >From all the above, replace the seqcount with a rwsem.

If the geneve interface is in collect_md (external) mode, it can't send any packets submitted directly to its net interface, as such packets won't have metadata attached. This is expected. However, the kernel itself sends some packets to the interface, most notably, IPv6 DAD, IPv6 multicast listener reports, etc. This is not wrong, as tunnel metadata can be specified in routing table (although technically, that has never worked for IPv6, but hopefully will be fixed eventually) and then the interface must correctly participate in IPv6 housekeeping. The problem is that any such attempt increases the tx_error counter. Just bringing up a geneve interface with IPv6 enabled is enough to see a number of tx_errors. That causes confusion among users, prompting them to find a network error where there is none. Change the counter used to tx_dropped. That better conveys the meaning (there's nothing wrong going on, just some packets are getting dropped) and hopefully will make admins panic less.

This patch fixes two issues with XDP: 1. If the XDP verdict is XDP_ABORTED we break the loop, which results in us handling one buffer per napi cycle instead of the total budget (usually 64). To overcome this simply change the xdp_verdict check to != XDP_PASS. When the verdict is XDP_PASS, the skb is not expected to be NULL. 2. Update the residual budget for XDP_DROP and XDP_ABORTED, since packets are handled in these cases.

The seg6_validate_srh() is used to validate SRH for three cases: case1: SRH of data-plane SRv6 packets to be processed by the Linux kernel. Case2: SRH of the netlink message received from user-space (iproute2) Case3: SRH injected into packets through setsockopt In case1, the SRH can be encoded in the Reduced way (i.e., first SID is carried in DA only and not represented as SID in the SRH) and the seg6_validate_srh() now handles this case correctly. In case2 and case3, the SRH shouldn’t be encoded in the Reduced way otherwise we lose the first segment (i.e., the first hop). The current implementation of the seg6_validate_srh() allow SRH of case2 and case3 to be encoded in the Reduced way. This leads a slab-out-of-bounds problem. This patch verifies SRH of case1, case2 and case3. Allowing case1 to be reduced while preventing SRH of case2 and case3 from being reduced .

This bug was bisected to commit 0a3e060f ("tipc: add test for Nagle algorithm effectiveness"). However, it is not the case, the trouble was from the base in the case of zero data length message sending, we would unexpectedly make an empty 'txq' queue after the 'tipc_msg_append()' in Nagle mode. A similar crash can be generated even without the bisected patch but at the link layer when it accesses the empty queue. We solve the issues by building at least one buffer to go with socket's header and an optional data section that may be empty like what we had with the 'tipc_msg_build()'. Note: the previous commit 4c21daae ("tipc: Fix NULL pointer dereference in __tipc_sendstream()") is obsoleted by this one since the 'txq' will be never empty and the check of 'skb != NULL' is unnecessary but it is safe anyway.

There are two kinds of memory leaks in genl_family_rcv_msg_dumpit(): 1. Before we call ops->start(), whenever an error happens, we forget to free the memory allocated in genl_family_rcv_msg_dumpit(). 2. When ops->start() fails, the 'info' has been already installed on the per socket control block, so we should not free it here. More importantly, nlk->cb_running is still false at this point, so netlink_sock_destruct() cannot free it either. The first kind of memory leaks is easier to resolve, but the second one requires some deeper thoughts. After reviewing how netfilter handles this, the most elegant solution I find is just to use a similar way to allocate the memory, that is, moving memory allocations from caller into ops->start(). With this, we can solve both kinds of memory leaks: for 1), no memory allocation happens before ops->start(); for 2), ops->start() handles its own failures and 'info' is installed to the socket control block only when success. The only ugliness here is we have to pass all local variables on stack via a struct, but this is not hard to understand. Alternatively, we can introduce a ops->free() to solve this too, but it is overkill as only genetlink has this problem so far.

Pull thread updates from Christian Brauner: "We have been discussing using pidfds to attach to namespaces for quite a while and the patches have in one form or another already existed for about a year. But I wanted to wait to see how the general api would be received and adopted. This contains the changes to make it possible to use pidfds to attach to the namespaces of a process, i.e. they can be passed as the first argument to the setns() syscall. When only a single namespace type is specified the semantics are equivalent to passing an nsfd. That means setns(nsfd, CLONE_NEWNET) equals setns(pidfd, CLONE_NEWNET). However, when a pidfd is passed, multiple namespace flags can be specified in the second setns() argument and setns() will attach the caller to all the specified namespaces all at once or to none of them. Specifying 0 is not valid together with a pidfd. Here are just two obvious examples: setns(pidfd, CLONE_NEWPID | CLONE_NEWNS | CLONE_NEWNET); setns(pidfd, CLONE_NEWUSER); Allowing to also attach subsets of namespaces supports various use-cases where callers setns to a subset of namespaces to retain privilege, perform an action and then re-attach another subset of namespaces. Apart from significantly reducing the number of syscalls needed to attach to all currently supported namespaces (eight "open+setns" sequences vs just a single "setns()"), this also allows atomic setns to a set of namespaces, i.e. either attaching to all namespaces succeeds or we fail without having changed anything. This is centered around a new internal struct nsset which holds all information necessary for a task to switch to a new set of namespaces atomically. Fwiw, with this change a pidfd becomes the only token needed to interact with a container. I'm expecting this to be picked-up by util-linux for nsenter rather soon. Associated with this change is a shiny new test-suite dedicated to setns() (for pidfds and nsfds alike)" * tag 'threads-v5.8' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/brauner/linux: selftests/pidfd: add pidfd setns tests nsproxy: attach to namespaces via pidfds nsproxy: add struct nsset

Pull DAX updates part two from Darrick Wong: "This time around, we're hoisting the DONTCACHE flag from XFS into the VFS so that we can make the incore DAX mode changes become effective sooner. We can't change the file data access mode on a live inode because we don't have a safe way to change the file ops pointers. The incore state change becomes effective at inode loading time, which can happen if the inode is evicted. Therefore, we're making it so that filesystems can ask the VFS to evict the inode as soon as the last holder drops. The per-fs changes to make this call this will be in subsequent pull requests from Ted and myself. Summary: - Introduce DONTCACHE flags for dentries and inodes. This hint will cause the VFS to drop the associated objects immediately after the last put, so that we can change the file access mode (DAX or page cache) on the fly" * tag 'vfs-5.8-merge-2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/fs/xfs/xfs-linux: fs: Introduce DCACHE_DONTCACHE fs: Lift XFS_IDONTCACHE to the VFS layer
