The attached change interchanges the order of purging the TLB and setting the corresponding page table entry. TLB purges are strongly ordered. It occurred to me one night that setting the PTE first might have subtle ordering issues on SMP machines and cause random memory corruption. A TLB lock guards the insertion of user TLB entries. So after the TLB is purged, a new entry can't be inserted until the lock is released. This ensures that the new PTE value is used when the lock is released. Since making this change, no random segmentation faults have been observed on the Debian hppa buildd servers.

Pull networking fixes from David Miller: 1) When dcbnl_cee_fill() fails to be able to push a new netlink attribute, it return 0 instead of an error code. From Pan Bian. 2) Two suffix handling fixes to FIB trie code, from Alexander Duyck. 3) bnxt_hwrm_stat_ctx_alloc() goes through all the trouble of setting and maintaining a return code 'rc' but fails to actually return it. Also from Pan Bian. 4) ping socket ICMP handler needs to validate ICMP header length, from Kees Cook. 5) caif_sktinit_module() has this interesting logic: int err = sock_register(...); if (!err) return err; return 0; Just return sock_register()'s return value directly which is the only possible correct thing to do. 6) Two bnx2x driver fixes from Yuval Mintz, return a reasonable estimate from get_ringparam() ethtool op when interface is down and avoid trying to use UDP port based tunneling on 577xx chips. 7) Fix ep93xx_eth crash on module unload from Florian Fainelli. 8) Missing uapi exports, from Stephen Hemminger. 9) Don't schedule work from sk_destruct(), because the socket will be freed upon return from that function. From Herbert Xu. 10) Buggy drivers, of which we know there is at least one, can send a huge packet into the TCP stack but forget to set the gso_size in the SKB, which causes all kinds of problems. Correct this when it happens, and emit a one-time warning with the device name included so that it can be diagnosed more easily. From Marcelo Ricardo Leitner. 11) virtio-net does DMA off the stack causes hiccups with VMAP_STACK, fix from Andy Lutomirski. 12) Fix fec driver compilation with CONFIG_M5272, from Nikita Yushchenko. 13) mlx5 fixes from Kamal Heib, Saeed Mahameed, and Mohamad Haj Yahia.

The shmem hole punching with fallocate(FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE) does not want to race with generating new pages by faulting them in. However, the wait-queue used to delay the page faulting has a serious problem: the wait queue head (in shmem_fallocate()) is allocated on the stack, and the code expects that "wake_up_all()" will make sure that all the queue entries are gone before the stack frame is de-allocated. And that is not at all necessarily the case. Yes, a normal wake-up sequence will remove the wait-queue entry that caused the wakeup (see "autoremove_wake_function()"), but the key wording there is "that caused the wakeup". When there are multiple possible wakeup sources, the wait queue entry may well stay around. And _particularly_ in a page fault path, we may be faulting in new pages from user space while we also have other things going on, and there may well be other pending wakeups. So despite the "wake_up_all()", it's not at all guaranteed that all list entries are removed from the wait queue head on the stack. Fix this by introducing a new wakeup function that removes the list entry unconditionally, even if the target process had already woken up for other reasons. Use that "synchronous" function to set up the waiters in shmem_fault(). This problem has never been seen in the wild afaik, but Dave Jones has reported it on and off while running trinity. We thought we fixed the stack corruption with the blk-mq rq_list locking fix (commit 7fe31130: "blk-mq: update hardware and software queues for sleeping alloc"), but it turns out there was _another_ stack corruptor hiding in the trinity runs. Vegard Nossum (also running trinity) was able to trigger this one fairly consistently, and made us look once again at the shmem code due to the faults often being in that area.

In such case instead of failing the driver load, we will treat any FW status other than 0 for Query ISSI FW command as ISSI not supported and assume ISSI=0 (most basic driver/FW interface).

There have been some reports lately about TCP connection stalls caused by NIC drivers that aren't setting gso_size on aggregated packets on rx path. This causes TCP to assume that the MSS is actually the size of the aggregated packet, which is invalid. Although the proper fix is to be done at each driver, it's often hard and cumbersome for one to debug, come to such root cause and report/fix it. This patch amends this situation in two ways. First, it adds a warning on when this situation occurs, so it gives a hint to those trying to debug this. It also limit the maximum probed MSS to the adverised MSS, as it should never be any higher than that. The result is that the connection may not have the best performance ever but it shouldn't stall, and the admin will have a hint on what to look for. Tested with virtio by forcing gso_size to 0. v2: updated msg per David's suggestion v3: use skb_iif to find the interface and also log its name, per Eric Dumazet's suggestion. As the skb may be backlogged and the interface gone by then, we need to check if the number still has a meaning. v4: use helper tcp_gro_dev_warn() and avoid pr_warn_once inside __once, per David's suggestion Cc: Jonathan Maxwell <jmaxwell37@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Marcelo Ricardo Leitner <marcelo.leitner@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

WR_OSR_LMT and RD_OSR_LMT have a reset value of 1. Since the reset value wasn't cleared before writing, the value in the register would be incorrect if specifying an uneven value for snps,wr_osr_lmt/snps,rd_osr_lmt. Zero is a valid value for the properties, since the databook specifies: maximum outstanding requests = WR_OSR_LMT + 1. We do not want to change the behavior for existing users when the property is missing. Therefore, default to 1 if the property is missing, since that is the same as the reset value.

When we unload the ep93xx_eth, whether we have opened the network interface or not, we will either hit a kernel paging request error, or a simple NULL pointer de-reference because: - if ep93xx_open has been called, we have created a valid DMA mapping for ep->descs, when we call ep93xx_stop, we also call ep93xx_free_buffers, ep->descs now has a stale value - if ep93xx_open has not been called, we have a NULL pointer for ep->descs, so performing any operation against that address just won't work Fix this by adding a NULL pointer check for ep->descs which means that ep93xx_free_buffers() was able to successfully tear down the descriptors and free the DMA cookie as well.

Until interface is up [and assuming ringparams weren't explicitly configured] when queried for the size of its rings bnx2x would claim they're the maximal size by default. That is incorrect as by default the maximal number of buffers would be equally divided between the various rx rings. This prevents the user from actually setting the number of elements on each rx ring to be of maximal size prior to transitioning the interface into up state. To fix this, make a rough estimation about the number of buffers. It wouldn't always be accurate, but it would be much better than current estimation and would allow users to increase number of buffers during early initialization of the interface.

Prior to commit c0371da6 ("put iov_iter into msghdr") in v3.19, there was no check that the iovec contained enough bytes for an ICMP header, and the read loop would walk across neighboring stack contents. Since the iov_iter conversion, bad arguments are noticed, but the returned error is EFAULT. Returning EINVAL is a clearer error and also solves the problem prior to v3.19.

Alexander Duyck says: ==================== IPv4 FIB suffix length fixes In reviewing the patch from Robert Shearman and looking over the code I realized there were a few different bugs we were still carrying in the IPv4 FIB lookup code. These two patches are based off of Robert's original patch, but take things one step further by splitting them up to address two additional issues I found. So first have Robert's original patch which was addressing the fact that us calling update_suffix in resize is expensive when it is called per add. To address that I incorporated the core bit of the patch which was us dropping the update_suffix call from resize. The first patch in the series does a rename and fix on the push_suffix and pull_suffix code. Specifically we drop the need to pass a leaf and secondly we fix things so we pull the suffix as long as the value of the suffix in the node is dropping. The second patch addresses the original issue reported as well as optimizing the code for the fact that update_suffix is only really meant to go through and clean things up when we are decreasing a suffix. I had originally added code for it to somehow cause an increase, but if we push the suffix when a new leaf is added we only ever have to handle pulling down the suffix with update_suffix so I updated the code to reflect that. As far as side effects the only ones I think that will be obvious should be the fact that some routes may be able to be found earlier since before we relied on resize to update the suffix lengths, and now we are updating them before we add or remove the leaf. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

It has been reported that update_suffix can be expensive when it is called on a large node in which most of the suffix lengths are the same. The time required to add 200K entries had increased from around 3 seconds to almost 49 seconds. In order to address this we need to move the code for updating the suffix out of resize and instead just have it handled in the cases where we are pushing a node that increases the suffix length, or will decrease the suffix length.
