Currently tg3_reset_task() uses only tp->lock for synchronizing with code paths like tg3_open() etc. But since tp->lock is released before doing synchronize_irq(), rtnl_lock should be taken in tg3_reset_task() to synchronize it with other code paths.

This patch is fixing a race condition that may cause setting count_pending to -1, which results in unwanted big bulk of arp messages (in case of "notify peers"). Consider following scenario: count_pending == 2 CPU0 CPU1 team_notify_peers_work atomic_dec_and_test (dec count_pending to 1) schedule_delayed_work team_notify_peers atomic_add (adding 1 to count_pending) team_notify_peers_work atomic_dec_and_test (dec count_pending to 1) schedule_delayed_work team_notify_peers_work atomic_dec_and_test (dec count_pending to 0) schedule_delayed_work team_notify_peers_work atomic_dec_and_test (dec count_pending to -1) Fix this race by using atomic_dec_if_positive - that will prevent count_pending running under 0.

User space is currently sending a OVS_FLOW_ATTR_PROBE for both flow and packet messages. This leads to an out-of-bounds access in ovs_packet_cmd_execute() because OVS_FLOW_ATTR_PROBE > OVS_PACKET_ATTR_MAX. Introduce a new OVS_PACKET_ATTR_PROBE with the same numeric value as OVS_FLOW_ATTR_PROBE to grow the range of accepted packet attributes while maintaining to be binary compatible with existing OVS binaries.

This also eliminate multiple FCoE config checks, instead now just one config check for CONFIG_I40E_FCOE.

When IPV4 support is disabled, we cannot call arp_send from the bridge code, which would result in a kernel link error: net/built-in.o: In function `br_handle_frame_finish': :(.text+0x59914): undefined reference to `arp_send' :(.text+0x59a50): undefined reference to `arp_tbl' This makes the newly added proxy ARP support in the bridge code depend on the CONFIG_INET symbol and lets the compiler optimize the code out to avoid the link error.

Jean-Francois Remy authored
When setting base_reachable_time or base_reachable_time_ms on a specific interface through sysctl or netlink, the reachable_time value is not updated. This means that neighbour entries will continue to be updated using the old value until it is recomputed in neigh_period_work (which recomputes the value every 300*HZ). On systems with HZ equal to 1000 for instance, it means 5mins before the change is effective. This patch changes this behavior by recomputing reachable_time after each set on base_reachable_time or base_reachable_time_ms. The new value will become effective the next time the neighbour's timer is triggered. Changes are made in two places: the netlink code for set and the sysctl handling code. For sysctl, I use a proc_handler. The ipv6 network code does provide its own handler but it already refreshes reachable_time correctly so it's not an issue. Any other user of neighbour which provide its own handlers must refresh reachable_time. Signed-off-by: Jean-Francois Remy <jeff@melix.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Stefan Agner authored
On i.MX28, the MDIO bus is shared between the two FEC instances. The driver makes sure that the second FEC uses the MDIO bus of the first FEC. This is done conditionally if FEC_QUIRK_ENET_MAC is set. However, in newer designs, such as Vybrid or i.MX6SX, each FEC MAC has its own MDIO bus. Simply removing the quirk FEC_QUIRK_ENET_MAC is not an option since other logic, triggered by this quirk, is still needed. Furthermore, there are board designs which use the same MDIO bus for both PHY's even though the second bus would be available on the SoC side. Such layout are popular since it saves pins on SoC side. Due to the above quirk, those boards currently do work fine. The boards in the mainline tree with such a layout are: - Freescale Vybrid Tower with TWR-SER2 (vf610-twr.dts) - Freescale i.MX6 SoloX SDB Board (imx6sx-sdb.dts) This patch adds a new quirk FEC_QUIRK_SINGLE_MDIO for i.MX28, which makes sure that the MDIO bus of the first FEC is used in any case. However, the boards above do have a SoC with a MDIO bus for each FEC instance. But the PHY's are not connected in a 1:1 configuration. A proper device tree description is needed to allow the driver to figure out where to find its PHY. This patch fixes that shortcoming by adding a MDIO bus child node to the first FEC instance, along with the two PHY's on that bus, and making use of the phy-handle property to add a reference to the PHY's.

Using the native code here can't work properly, as the hypervisor would normally have cleared the two reason bits by the time Dom0 gets to see the NMI (if passed to it at all). There's a shared info field for this, and there's an existing hook to use - just fit the two together. This is particularly relevant so that NMIs intended to be handled by APEI / GHES actually make it to the respective handler. Note that the hook can (and should) be used irrespective of whether being in Dom0, as accessing port 0x61 in a DomU would be even worse, while the shared info field would just hold zero all the time. Note further that hardware NMI handling for PVH doesn't currently work anyway due to missing code in the hypervisor (but it is expected to work the native rather than the PV way).

When batching up address ranges for TLB invalidation, we check tlb->end != 0 to indicate that some pages have actually been unmapped. As of commit f045bbb9 ("mmu_gather: fix over-eager tlb_flush_mmu_free() calling"), we use the same check for freeing these pages in order to avoid a performance regression where we call free_pages_and_swap_cache even when no pages are actually queued up. Unfortunately, the range could have been reset (tlb->end = 0) by tlb_end_vma, which has been shown to cause memory leaks on arm64. Furthermore, investigation into these leaks revealed that the fullmm case on task exit no longer invalidates the TLB, by virtue of tlb->end == 0 (in 3.18, need_flush would have been set). This patch resolves the problem by reverting commit f045bbb9, using instead tlb->local.nr as the predicate for page freeing in tlb_flush_mmu_free and ensuring that tlb->end is initialised to a non-zero value in the fullmm case.

In commit 58dc55f2 ("tipc: use generic SKB list APIs to manage link transmission queue") we replace all list traversal loops with the macros skb_queue_walk() or skb_queue_walk_safe(). While the previous loops were based on the assumption that the list was NULL-terminated, the standard macros stop when the iterator reaches the list head, which is non-NULL. In the function bclink_retransmit_pkt() this macro replacement has lead to a bug. When we receive a BCAST STATE_MSG we unconditionally call the function bclink_retransmit_pkt(), whether there really is anything to retransmit or not, assuming that the sequence number comparisons will lead to the correct behavior. However, if the transmission queue is empty, or if there are no eligible buffers in the transmission queue, we will by mistake pass the list head pointer to the function tipc_link_retransmit(). Since the list head is not a valid sk_buff, this leads to a crash. In this commit we fix this by only calling tipc_link_retransmit() if we actually found eligible buffers in the transmission queue.

The clock is enabled without being prepared, this leads to: WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 1 at drivers/clk/clk.c:889 __clk_enable+0x24/0xa8() and a non working ethernet interface. Use clk_prepare_enable() and clk_disable_unprepare() to handle the clock.

In C one can either use '\0' or '\x00' (or '\000') to add a NUL byte to a string. '\0x00' isn't part of these and will in fact result in a single NUL followed by "x00". This fixes that.
