When a device ndo_start_xmit() calls again dev_queue_xmit(), lockdep can complain because dev_queue_xmit() is re-entered and the spinlocks protecting tx queues share a common lockdep class.

2014-02-109p/trans_virtio.c: Fix broken zero-copy on vmalloc() buffersRichard Yao1-1/+4
The 9p-virtio transport does zero copy on things larger than 1024 bytes in size. It accomplishes this by returning the physical addresses of pages to the virtio-pci device. At present, the translation is usually a bit shift. That approach produces an invalid page address when we read/write to vmalloc buffers, such as those used for Linux kernel modules. Any attempt to load a Linux kernel module from 9p-virtio produces the following stack. [<ffffffff814878ce>] p9_virtio_zc_request+0x45e/0x510 [<ffffffff814814ed>] p9_client_zc_rpc.constprop.16+0xfd/0x4f0 [<ffffffff814839dd>] p9_client_read+0x15d/0x240 [<ffffffff811c8440>] v9fs_fid_readn+0x50/0xa0 [<ffffffff811c84a0>] v9fs_file_readn+0x10/0x20 [<ffffffff811c84e7>] v9fs_file_read+0x37/0x70 [<ffffffff8114e3fb>] vfs_read+0x9b/0x160 [<ffffffff81153571>] kernel_read+0x41/0x60 [<ffffffff810c83ab>] copy_module_from_fd.isra.34+0xfb/0x180 Subsequently, QEMU will die printing: qemu-system-x86_64: virtio: trying to map MMIO memory This patch enables 9p-virtio to correctly handle this case. This not only enables us to load Linux kernel modules off virtfs, but also enables ZFS file-based vdevs on virtfs to be used without killing QEMU. Special thanks to both Avi Kivity and Alexander Graf for their interpretation of QEMU backtraces. Without their guidence, tracking down this bug would have taken much longer.

2014-02-10tcp: tsq: fix nonagle handlingJohn Ogness1-2/+11
Commit 46d3ceabd8d9 ("tcp: TCP Small Queues") introduced a possible regression for applications using TCP_NODELAY. If TCP session is throttled because of tsq, we should consult tp->nonagle when TX completion is done and allow us to send additional segment, especially if this segment is not a full MSS. Otherwise this segment is sent after an RTO. [edumazet] : Cooked the changelog, added another fix about testing sk_wmem_alloc twice because TX completion can happen right before setting TSQ_THROTTLED bit. This problem is particularly visible with recent auto corking, but might also be triggered with low tcp_limit_output_bytes values or NIC drivers delaying TX completion by hundred of usec, and very low rtt. Thomas Glanzmann for example reported an iscsi regression, caused by tcp auto corking making this bug quite visible.

2014-02-10bridge: Properly check if local fdb entry can be deleted when deleting vlanToshiaki Makita3-9/+23
Vlan codes unconditionally delete local fdb entries. We should consider the possibility that other ports have the same address and vlan. Example of problematic case: ip link set eth0 address 12:34:56:78:90:ab ip link set eth1 address aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff brctl addif br0 eth0 brctl addif br0 eth1 # br0 will have mac address 12:34:56:78:90:ab bridge vlan add dev eth0 vid 10 bridge vlan add dev eth1 vid 10 bridge vlan add dev br0 vid 10 self We will have fdb entry such that f->dst == eth0, f->vlan_id == 10 and f->addr == 12:34:56:78:90:ab at this time. Next, delete eth0 vlan 10. bridge vlan del dev eth0 vid 10 In this case, we still need the entry for br0, but it will be deleted. Note that br0 needs the entry even though its mac address is not set manually. To delete the entry with proper condition checking, fdb_delete_local() is suitable to use.

2014-02-10bridge: Properly check if local fdb entry can be deleted in ↵Toshiaki Makita1-19/+6
br_fdb_delete_by_port br_fdb_delete_by_port() doesn't care about vlan and mac address of the bridge device. As the check is almost the same as mac address changing, slightly modify fdb_delete_local() and use it. Note that we can always set added_by_user to 0 in fdb_delete_local() because - br_fdb_delete_by_port() calls fdb_delete_local() for local entries regardless of its added_by_user. In this case, we have to check if another port has the same address and vlan, and if found, we have to create the entry (by changing dst). This is kernel-added entry, not user-added. - br_fdb_changeaddr() doesn't call fdb_delete_local() for user-added entry.

2014-02-10bridge: Properly check if local fdb entry can be deleted in ↵Toshiaki Makita1-25/+32
br_fdb_change_mac_address br_fdb_change_mac_address() doesn't check if the local entry has the same address as any of bridge ports. Although I'm not sure when it is beneficial, current implementation allow the bridge device to receive any mac address of its ports. To preserve this behavior, we have to check if the mac address of the entry being deleted is identical to that of any port. As this check is almost the same as that in br_fdb_changeaddr(), create a common function fdb_delete_local() and call it from br_fdb_changeadddr() and br_fdb_change_mac_address().

2014-02-10bridge: Fix the way to check if a local fdb entry can be deletedToshiaki Makita3-1/+34
We should take into account the followings when deleting a local fdb entry. - nbp_vlan_find() can be used only when vid != 0 to check if an entry is deletable, because a fdb entry with vid 0 can exist at any time while nbp_vlan_find() always return false with vid 0. Example of problematic case: ip link set eth0 address 12:34:56:78:90:ab ip link set eth1 address 12:34:56:78:90:ab brctl addif br0 eth0 brctl addif br0 eth1 ip link set eth0 address aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff Then, the fdb entry 12:34:56:78:90:ab will be deleted even though the bridge port eth1 still has that address. - The port to which the bridge device is attached might needs a local entry if its mac address is set manually. Example of problematic case: ip link set eth0 address 12:34:56:78:90:ab brctl addif br0 eth0 ip link set br0 address 12:34:56:78:90:ab ip link set eth0 address aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff Then, the fdb still must have the entry 12:34:56:78:90:ab, but it will be deleted. We can use br->dev->addr_assign_type to check if the address is manually set or not, but I propose another approach. Since we delete and insert local entries whenever changing mac address of the bridge device, we can change dst of the entry to NULL regardless of addr_assign_type when deleting an entry associated with a certain port, and if it is found to be unnecessary later, then delete it. That is, if changing mac address of a port, the entry might be changed to its dst being NULL first, but is eventually deleted when recalculating and changing bridge id. This approach is especially useful when we want to share the code with deleting vlan in which the bridge device might want such an entry regardless of addr_assign_type, and makes things easy because we don't have to consider if mac address of the bridge device will be changed or not at the time we delete a local entry of a port, which means fdb code will not be bothered even if the bridge id calculating logic is changed in the future. Also, this change reduces inconsistent state, where frames whose dst is the mac address of the bridge, can't reach the bridge because of premature fdb entry deletion. This change reduces the possibility that the bridge device replies unreachable mac address to arp requests, which could occur during the short window between calling del_nbp() and br_stp_recalculate_bridge_id() in br_del_if(). This will effective after br_fdb_delete_by_port() starts to use the same code by following patch.

2014-02-10bridge: Change local fdb entries whenever mac address of bridge device changesToshiaki Makita3-4/+5
Vlan code may need fdb change when changing mac address of bridge device even if it is caused by the mac address changing of a bridge port. Example configuration: ip link set eth0 address 12:34:56:78:90:ab ip link set eth1 address aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff brctl addif br0 eth0 brctl addif br0 eth1 # br0 will have mac address 12:34:56:78:90:ab bridge vlan add dev br0 vid 10 self bridge vlan add dev eth0 vid 10 We will have fdb entry such that f->dst == NULL, f->vlan_id == 10 and f->addr == 12:34:56:78:90:ab at this time. Next, change the mac address of eth0 to greater value. ip link set eth0 address ee:ff:12:34:56:78 Then, mac address of br0 will be recalculated and set to aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff. However, an entry aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff will not be created and we will be not able to communicate using br0 on vlan 10. Address this issue by deleting and adding local entries whenever changing the mac address of the bridge device. If there already exists an entry that has the same address, for example, in case that br_fdb_changeaddr() has already inserted it, br_fdb_change_mac_address() will simply fail to insert it and no duplicated entry will be made, as it was. This approach also needs br_add_if() to call br_fdb_insert() before br_stp_recalculate_bridge_id() so that we don't create an entry whose dst == NULL in this function to preserve previous behavior. Note that this is a slight change in behavior where the bridge device can receive the traffic to the new address before calling br_stp_recalculate_bridge_id() in br_add_if(). However, it is not a problem because we have already the address on the new port and such a way to insert new one before recalculating bridge id is taken in br_device_event() as well.

2014-02-10bridge: Fix the way to find old local fdb entries in br_fdb_change_mac_addressToshiaki Makita1-1/+1
We have been always failed to delete the old entry at br_fdb_change_mac_address() because br_set_mac_address() updates dev->dev_addr before calling br_fdb_change_mac_address() and br_fdb_change_mac_address() uses dev->dev_addr to find the old entry. That update of dev_addr is completely unnecessary because the same work is done in br_stp_change_bridge_id() which is called right away after calling br_fdb_change_mac_address().

2014-02-10bridge: Fix the way to insert new local fdb entries in br_fdb_changeaddrToshiaki Makita1-9/+20
Since commit bc9a25d21ef8 ("bridge: Add vlan support for local fdb entries"), br_fdb_changeaddr() has inserted a new local fdb entry only if it can find old one. But if we have two ports where they have the same address or user has deleted a local entry, there will be no entry for one of the ports. Example of problematic case: ip link set eth0 address aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff ip link set eth1 address aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff brctl addif br0 eth0 brctl addif br0 eth1 # eth1 will not have a local entry due to dup. ip link set eth1 address 12:34:56:78:90:ab Then, the new entry for the address 12:34:56:78:90:ab will not be created, and the bridge device will not be able to communicate.

2014-02-10bridge: Fix the way to find old local fdb entries in br_fdb_changeaddrToshiaki Makita3-7/+16
br_fdb_changeaddr() assumes that there is at most one local entry per port per vlan. It used to be true, but since commit 36fd2b63e3b4 ("bridge: allow creating/deleting fdb entries via netlink"), it has not been so. Therefore, the function might fail to search a correct previous address to be deleted and delete an arbitrary local entry if user has added local entries manually. Example of problematic case: ip link set eth0 address ee:ff:12:34:56:78 brctl addif br0 eth0 bridge fdb add 12:34:56:78:90:ab dev eth0 master ip link set eth0 address aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff Then, the address 12:34:56:78:90:ab might be deleted instead of ee:ff:12:34:56:78, the original mac address of eth0. Address this issue by introducing a new flag, added_by_user, to struct net_bridge_fdb_entry. Note that br_fdb_delete_by_port() has to set added_by_user to 0 in cases like: ip link set eth0 address 12:34:56:78:90:ab ip link set eth1 address aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff brctl addif br0 eth0 bridge fdb add aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff dev eth0 master brctl addif br0 eth1 brctl delif br0 eth0 In this case, kernel should delete the user-added entry aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff, but it also should have been added by "brctl addif br0 eth1" originally, so we don't delete it and treat it a new kernel-created entry.

For the mac80211 bits, Johannes says: "This is just a collection of small fixes, the commit logs explain the details. The only thing that isn't strictly a fix is the 5/10 MHz enabling, I had forgotten this and there's little point in waiting longer. The patch simply removes the force-disable code that I put in when there was a problem with the userspace API (that has long been fixed.)" For the iwlwifi bits, Emmanuel says: "I have an important fix that disables A band in case the driver thought it was enabled, and the firmware disagreed. We ended up making the firmware unhappy. I also fix the station table in AP mode and fix the scan while we have BT working. Johannes removes a static variable that could potentially lead to to issues on multi-device setups and disables scheduled scan to avoid issues with old versions of wpa_supplicant. A small fix from David on scan and a few new device IDs for 7265." On top of that... Oleksij Rempel adds a USB ID to the ar5523 driver and changes the default powersave setting for ath9k_htc to "off", due to observed stability issues (based on an equivalent ath9k patch). Stanislaw Gruszka similarly disables powersave for a couple of rt2x00 drivers. He also fixes a couple of scheduling while atomic issues in ath9k_htc. Sujith Manoharan rounds-out the powersave disables with one for ath9k. He also fixes a build prolem with ath9k on ARM and fixes an ath9k Tx power calculation.

2014-02-06tcp: remove 1ms offset in srtt computationEric Dumazet2-9/+11
TCP pacing depends on an accurate srtt estimation. Current srtt estimation is using jiffie resolution, and has an artificial offset of at least 1 ms, which can produce slowdowns when FQ/pacing is used, especially in DC world, where typical rtt is below 1 ms. We are planning a switch to usec resolution for linux-3.15, but in the meantime, this patch removes the 1 ms offset. All we need is to have tp->srtt minimal value of 1 to differentiate the case of srtt being initialized or not, not 8. The problematic behavior was observed on a 40Gbit testbed, where 32 concurrent netperf were reaching 12Gbps of aggregate speed, instead of line speed. This patch also has the effect of reporting more accurate srtt and send rates to iproute2 ss command as in : $ ss -i dst cca2 Netid State Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address:Port Peer Address:Port tcp ESTAB 0 0 10.244.129.1:56984 10.244.129.2:12865 cubic wscale:6,6 rto:200 rtt:0.25/0.25 ato:40 mss:1448 cwnd:10 send 463.4Mbps rcv_rtt:1 rcv_space:29200 tcp ESTAB 0 390960 10.244.129.1:60247 10.244.129.2:50204 cubic wscale:6,6 rto:200 rtt:0.875/0.75 mss:1448 cwnd:73 ssthresh:51 send 966.4Mbps unacked:73 retrans:0/121 rcv_space:29200 Reported-by: Vytautas Valancius <valas@google.com> Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Cc: Yuchung Cheng <ycheng@google.com> Cc: Neal Cardwell <ncardwell@google.com> Acked-by: Neal Cardwell <ncardwell@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2014-02-06net: use __GFP_NORETRY for high order allocationsEric Dumazet1-2/+4
sock_alloc_send_pskb() & sk_page_frag_refill() have a loop trying high order allocations to prepare skb with low number of fragments as this increases performance. Problem is that under memory pressure/fragmentation, this can trigger OOM while the intent was only to try the high order allocations, then fallback to order-0 allocations. We had various reports from unexpected regressions. According to David, setting __GFP_NORETRY should be fine, as the asynchronous compaction is still enabled, and this will prevent OOM from kicking as in : CFSClientEventm invoked oom-killer: gfp_mask=0x42d0, order=3, oom_adj=0, oom_score_adj=0, oom_score_badness=2 (enabled),memcg_scoring=disabled CFSClientEventm Call Trace: [<ffffffff8043766c>] dump_header+0xe1/0x23e [<ffffffff80437a02>] oom_kill_process+0x6a/0x323 [<ffffffff80438443>] out_of_memory+0x4b3/0x50d [<ffffffff8043a4a6>] __alloc_pages_may_oom+0xa2/0xc7 [<ffffffff80236f42>] __alloc_pages_nodemask+0x1002/0x17f0 [<ffffffff8024bd23>] alloc_pages_current+0x103/0x2b0 [<ffffffff8028567f>] sk_page_frag_refill+0x8f/0x160 [<ffffffff80295fa0>] tcp_sendmsg+0x560/0xee0 [<ffffffff802a5037>] inet_sendmsg+0x67/0x100 [<ffffffff80283c9c>] __sock_sendmsg_nosec+0x6c/0x90 [<ffffffff80283e85>] sock_sendmsg+0xc5/0xf0 [<ffffffff802847b6>] __sys_sendmsg+0x136/0x430 [<ffffffff80284ec8>] sys_sendmsg+0x88/0x110 [<ffffffff80711472>] system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b Out of Memory: Kill process 2856 (bash) score 9999 or sacrifice child Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Acked-by: David Rientjes <rientjes@google.com> Acked-by: "Eric W.

2014-02-06netfilter: nf_tables: fix racy rule deletionPablo Neira Ayuso1-17/+23
We may lost race if we flush the rule-set (which happens asynchronously via call_rcu) and we try to remove the table (that userspace assumes to be empty). Fix this by recovering synchronous rule and chain deletion. This was introduced time ago before we had no batch support, and synchronous rule deletion performance was not good. Now that we have the batch support, we can just postpone the purge of old rule in a second step in the commit phase. All object deletions are synchronous after this patch. As a side effect, we save memory as we don't need rcu_head per rule anymore.

2014-02-06mac80211: fix fragmentation code, particularly for encryptionJohannes Berg1-1/+1
The "new" fragmentation code (since my rewrite almost 5 years ago) erroneously sets skb->len rather than using skb_trim() to adjust the length of the first fragment after copying out all the others. This leaves the skb tail pointer pointing to after where the data originally ended, and thus causes the encryption MIC to be written at that point, rather than where it belongs: immediately after the data. The impact of this is that if software encryption is done, then a) encryption doesn't work for the first fragment, the connection becomes unusable as the first fragment will never be properly verified at the receiver, the MIC is practically guaranteed to be wrong b) we leak up to 8 bytes of plaintext (!) of the packet out into the air This is only mitigated by the fact that many devices are capable of doing encryption in hardware, in which case this can't happen as the tail pointer is irrelevant in that case. Additionally, fragmentation is not used very frequently and would normally have to be configured manually. Fix this by using skb_trim() properly.

2014-02-06mac80211: Fix IBSS disconnectSujith Manoharan1-4/+1
Currently, when a station leaves an IBSS network, the corresponding BSS is not dropped from cfg80211 if there are other active stations in the network. But, the small window that is present when trying to determine a station's status based on IEEE80211_IBSS_MERGE_INTERVAL introduces a race. Instead of trying to keep the BSS, always remove it when leaving an IBSS network. There is not much benefit to retain the BSS entry since it will be added with a subsequent join operation. This fixes an issue where a dangling BSS entry causes ath9k to wait for a beacon indefinitely.
