1) Setting link attributes can modify the size of the attributes that would be reported on a subsequent getlink netlink operation, therefore min_ifinfo_dump_size needs to be adjusted. From Stefan Gula. 2) Resegmentation of TSO frames while trimming can violate invariants expected by callers, namely that the number of segments can only stay the same or decrease, never increase. If MSS changes, however, we can trim data but then end up with more segments. Fix this by only segmenting to the MSS already recorded in the SKB. That's the simplest fix for now and if we want to get more fancy in the future that's a more involved change. This probably explains some retransmit counter inaccuracies. From Neal Cardwell. 3) Fix too-many-wakeups in POLL with AF_UNIX sockets, from Eric Dumazet. 4) Fix CAIF crashes wrt. namespace handling. From Eric Dumazet and Eric W. Biederman. 5) TCP port selection fixes from Flavio Leitner. 6) More socket memory cgroup build fixes in certain randonfig situations.

2012-01-30af_unix: fix EPOLLET regression for stream socketsEric Dumazet1-15/+4
Commit 0884d7aa24 (AF_UNIX: Fix poll blocking problem when reading from a stream socket) added a regression for epoll() in Edge Triggered mode (EPOLLET) Appropriate fix is to use skb_peek()/skb_unlink() instead of skb_dequeue(), and only call skb_unlink() when skb is fully consumed. This remove the need to requeue a partial skb into sk_receive_queue head and the extra sk->sk_data_ready() calls that added the regression. This is safe because once skb is given to sk_receive_queue, it is not modified by a writer, and readers are serialized by u->readlock mutex. This also reduce number of spinlock acquisition for small reads or MSG_PEEK users so should improve overall performance.

2012-01-30tcp: fix tcp_trim_head() to adjust segment count with skb MSSNeal Cardwell1-4/+2
This commit fixes tcp_trim_head() to recalculate the number of segments in the skb with the skb's existing MSS, so trimming the head causes the skb segment count to be monotonically non-increasing - it should stay the same or go down, but not increase. Previously tcp_trim_head() used the current MSS of the connection. But if there was a decrease in MSS between original transmission and ACK (e.g. due to PMTUD), this could cause tcp_trim_head() to counter-intuitively increase the segment count when trimming bytes off the head of an skb. This violated assumptions in tcp_tso_acked() that tcp_trim_head() only decreases the packet count, so that packets_acked in tcp_tso_acked() could underflow, leading tcp_clean_rtx_queue() to pass u32 pkts_acked values as large as 0xffffffff to ca_ops->pkts_acked(). As an aside, if tcp_trim_head() had really wanted the skb to reflect the current MSS, it should have called tcp_set_skb_tso_segs() unconditionally, since a decrease in MSS would mean that a single-packet skb should now be sliced into multiple segments.

2012-01-30net/tcp: Fix tcp memory limits initialization when !CONFIG_SYSCTLGlauber Costa2-3/+14
sysctl_tcp_mem() initialization was moved to sysctl_tcp_ipv4.c in commit 3dc43e3e4d0b52197d3205214fe8f162f9e0c334, since it became a per-ns value. That code, however, will never run when CONFIG_SYSCTL is disabled, leading to bogus values on those fields - causing hung TCP sockets. This patch fixes it by keeping an initialization code in tcp_init(). It will be overwritten by the first net namespace init if CONFIG_SYSCTL is compiled in, and do the right thing if it is compiled out. It is also named properly as tcp_init_mem(), to properly signal its non-sysctl side effect on TCP limits.

2012-01-27net caif: Register properly as a pernet subsystem.Eric W. Biederman2-21/+2
caif is a subsystem and as such it needs to register with register_pernet_subsys instead of register_pernet_device. Among other problems using register_pernet_device was resulting in net_generic being called before the caif_net structure was allocated. Which has been causing net_generic to fail with either BUG_ON's or by return NULL pointers. A more ugly problem that could be caused is packets in flight why the subsystem is shutting down. To remove confusion also remove the cruft cause by inappropriately trying to fix this bug. With the aid of the previous patch I have tested this patch and confirmed that using register_pernet_subsys makes the failure go away as it should. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

2012-01-26ipv6: Fix ip_gre lockless xmits.Willem de Bruijn1-0/+4
Tunnel devices set NETIF_F_LLTX to bypass HARD_TX_LOCK. Sit and ipip set this unconditionally in ops->setup, but gre enables it conditionally after parameter passing in ops->newlink. This is not called during tunnel setup as below, however, so GRE tunnels are still taking the lock. modprobe ip_gre ip tunnel add test0 mode gre remote 10.5.1.1 dev lo ip link set test0 up ip addr add 10.6.0.1 dev test0 # cat /sys/class/net/test0/features # $DIR/test_tunnel_xmit 10 10.5.2.1 ip route add 10.5.2.0/24 dev test0 ip tunnel del test0 The newlink callback is only called in rtnl_netlink, and only if the device is new, as it calls register_netdevice internally. Gre tunnels are created at 'ip tunnel add' with ioctl SIOCADDTUNNEL, which calls ipgre_tunnel_locate, which calls register_netdev. rtnl_newlink is called at 'ip link set', but skips ops->newlink and the device is up with locking still enabled. The equivalent ipip tunnel works fine, btw (just substitute 'method gre' for 'method ipip'). On kernels before /sys/class/net/*/features was removed [1], the first commented out line returns 0x6000 with method gre, which indicates that NETIF_F_LLTX (0x1000) is not set. With ipip, it reports 0x7000. This test cannot be used on recent kernels where the sysfs file is removed (and ETHTOOL_GFEATURES does not currently work for tunnel devices, because they lack dev->ethtool_ops). The second commented out line calls a simple transmission test [2] that sends on 24 cores at maximum rate. Results of a single run: ipip: 19,372,306 gre before patch: 4,839,753 gre after patch: 19,133,873 This patch replicates the condition check in ipgre_newlink to ipgre_tunnel_locate. It works for me, both with oseq on and off. This is the first time I looked at rtnetlink and iproute2 code, though, so someone more knowledgeable should probably check the patch. Thanks. The tail of both functions is now identical, by the way. To avoid code duplication, I'll be happy to rework this and merge the two.

2012-01-25l2tp: l2tp_ip - fix possible oops on packet receiveJames Chapman1-5/+0
When a packet is received on an L2TP IP socket (L2TPv3 IP link encapsulation), the l2tpip socket's backlog_rcv function calls xfrm4_policy_check(). This is not necessary, since it was called before the skb was added to the backlog. With CONFIG_NET_NS enabled, xfrm4_policy_check() will oops if skb->dev is null, so this trivial patch removes the call. This bug has always been present, but only when CONFIG_NET_NS is enabled does it cause problems. Most users are probably using UDP encapsulation for L2TP, hence the problem has only recently surfaced.

2012-01-22net: introduce res_counter_charge_nofail() for socket allocationsGlauber Costa1-2/+2
There is a case in __sk_mem_schedule(), where an allocation is beyond the maximum, but yet we are allowed to proceed. It happens under the following condition: sk->sk_wmem_queued + size >= sk->sk_sndbuf The network code won't revert the allocation in this case, meaning that at some point later it'll try to do it. Since this is never communicated to the underlying res_counter code, there is an inbalance in res_counter uncharge operation. I see two ways of fixing this: 1) storing the information about those allocations somewhere in memcg, and then deducting from that first, before we start draining the res_counter, 2) providing a slightly different allocation function for the res_counter, that matches the original behavior of the network code more closely. I decided to go for #2 here, believing it to be more elegant, since #1 would require us to do basically that, but in a more obscure way.

2012-01-22tcp: detect loss above high_seq in recoveryYuchung Cheng2-27/+15
Correctly implement a loss detection heuristic: New sequences (above high_seq) sent during the fast recovery are deemed lost when higher sequences are SACKed. Current code does not catch these losses, because tcp_mark_head_lost() does not check packets beyond high_seq. The fix is straight-forward by checking packets until the highest sacked packet. In addition, all the FLAG_DATA_LOST logic are in-effective and redundant and can be removed. Update the loss heuristic comments. The algorithm above is documented as heuristic B, but it is redundant too because heuristic A already covers B. Note that this change only marks some forward-retransmitted packets LOST. It does NOT forbid TCP performing further CWR on new losses. A potential follow-up patch under preparation is to perform another CWR on "new" losses such as 1) sequence above high_seq is lost (by resetting high_seq to snd_nxt) 2) retransmission is lost.

This patch fixes CUBIC so that cwnd reductions made during RTOs can be undone (just as they already can be undone when using the default/Reno behavior). When undoing cwnd reductions, BIC-derived congestion control modules were restoring the cwnd from last_max_cwnd. There were two problems with using last_max_cwnd to restore a cwnd during undo: (a) last_max_cwnd was set to 0 on state transitions into TCP_CA_Loss (by calling the module's reset() functions), so cwnd reductions from RTOs could not be undone. (b) when fast_covergence is enabled (which it is by default) last_max_cwnd does not actually hold the value of snd_cwnd before the loss; instead, it holds a scaled-down version of snd_cwnd. This patch makes the following changes: (1) upon undo, revert snd_cwnd to ca->loss_cwnd, which is already, as the existing comment notes, the "congestion window at last loss" (2) stop forgetting ca->loss_cwnd on TCP_CA_Loss events (3) use ca->last_max_cwnd to check if we're in slow start Signed-off-by: Neal Cardwell <ncardwell@google.com> Acked-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@vyatta.com> Acked-by: Sangtae Ha <sangtae.ha@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

If that fails they restore the original value and restart the syscall. This creates race conditions if ipv6 code tries to access these parameters, or if multiple instances try to do the same operation. As an example of the former, if __ipv6_ifa_notify() finds a 0 in idev->cnf.forwarding when invoked by addrconf_ifdown() it may not free anycast addresses, ultimately resulting in the net_device not being freed. This patch reads the user parameters into a temporary location and only writes the actual parameters when the rtnl lock is acquired. Tested in 2.6.38.8.

2012-01-18mac80211: fix work removal on deauth requestJohannes Berg1-11/+27
When deauth is requested while an auth or assoc work item is in progress, we currently delete it without regard for any state it might need to clean up. Fix it by cleaning up for those items. In the case Pontus found, the problem manifested itself as such: authenticate with 00:23:69:aa:dd:7b (try 1) authenticated failed to insert Dummy STA entry for the AP (error -17) deauthenticating from 00:23:69:aa:dd:7b by local choice (reason=2) It could also happen differently if the driver uses the tx_sync callback. We can't just call the ->done() method of the work items because that will lock up due to the locking in cfg80211. This fix isn't very clean, but that seems acceptable since I have patches pending to remove this code completely.

2012-01-18mac80211: Use the right headroom size for mesh mgmt framesJavier Cardona2-6/+6
Use local->tx_headroom instad of local->hw.extra_tx_headroom. local->tx_headroom is the max of hw.extra_tx_headroom required by the driver and the headroom required by mac80211 for status reporting. On drivers where hw.extra_tx_headroom is smaller than what mac80211 requires (e.g. ath5k), we would not reserve sufficient buffer space to report tx status. Also, don't reserve local->tx_headroom + local->hw.extra_tx_headroom.

The logic to split up the list of datapaths into multiple Netlink messages was simply wrong, causing the list to be terminated after the first part. Only about the first 50 datapaths would be dumped.

2012-01-17net: WARN if skb_checksum_help() is called on skb requiring segmentationBen Hutchings1-12/+19
skb_checksum_help() has never done anything useful with skbs that require segmentation. Setting skb->ip_summed = CHECKSUM_NONE makes them invalid and provokes a later WARNing in skb_gso_segment(). Passing such an skb to skb_checksum_help() indicates a bug, so we should warn about it immediately. Move the warning from skb_gso_segment() into a shared function, and add gso_type and gso_size to it. Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <bhutchings@solarflare.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
