flow_cache_flush_task references a structure member flow_cache_gc_work where it should reference flow_cache_flush_task instead. Kernel panic occurs on kernels using IPsec during XFRM garbage collection. The garbage collection interval can be shortened using the following sysctl settings: net.ipv4.xfrm4_gc_thresh=4 net.ipv6.xfrm6_gc_thresh=4 With the default settings, our productions servers crash approximately once a week. With the settings above, they crash immediately.

Pull networking fixes from David Miller: 1) Stretch ACKs can kill performance with Reno and CUBIC congestion control, largely due to LRO and GRO. Fix from Neal Cardwell. 2) Fix userland breakage because we accidently emit zero length netlink messages from the bridging code. From Roopa Prabhu. 3) Carry handling in generic csum_tcpudp_nofold is broken, fix from Karl Beldan. 4) Remove bogus dev_set_net() calls from CAIF driver, from Nicolas Dichtel. 5) Make sure PPP deflation never returns a length greater then the output buffer, otherwise we overflow and trigger skb_over_panic(). Fix from Florian Westphal. 6) COSA driver needs VIRT_TO_BUS Kconfig dependencies, from Arnd Bergmann. 7) Don't increase route cached MTU on datagram too big ICMPs. From Li Wei. 8) Fix error path leaks in nf_tables, from Pablo Neira Ayuso. 9) Fix bitmask handling regression in netlink that broke things like acpi userland tools. From Pablo Neira Ayuso. 10) Wrong header pointer passed to param_type2af() in SCTP code, from Saran Maruti Ramanara. 11) Stacked vlans not handled correctly by vlan_get_protocol(), from Toshiaki Makita. 12) Add missing DMA memory barrier to xgene driver, from Iyappan Subramanian. 13) Fix crash in rate estimators, from Eric Dumazet. 14) We've been adding various workarounds, one after another, for the change which added the per-net tcp_sock. It was meant to reduce socket contention but added lots of problems. Reduce this instead to a proper per-cpu socket and that rids us of all the daemons. From Eric Dumazet. 15) Fix memory corruption and OOPS in mlx4 driver, from Jack Morgenstein. 16) When we disabled UFO in the virtio_net device, it introduces some serious performance regressions. The orignal problem was IPV6 fragment ID generation, so fix that properly instead. From Vlad Yasevich. 17) sr9700 driver build breaks on xtensa because it defines macros with the same name as those used by the arch code. Use more unique names. From Chen Gang. 18) Fix endianness in new virio 1.0 mode of the vhost net driver, from Michael S Tsirkin. 19) Several sysctls were setting the maxlen attribute incorrectly, from Sasha Levin. 20) Don't accept an FQ scheduler quantum of zero, that leads to crashes. From Kenneth Klette Jonassen. 21) Fix dumping of non-existing actions in the packet scheduler classifier. From Ignacy Gawędzki. 22) Return the write work_done value when doing TX work in the qlcnic driver. 23) ip6gre_err accesses the info field with the wrong endianness, from Sabrina Dubroca. * git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net: (54 commits) sit: fix some __be16/u16 mismatches ipv6: fix sparse errors in ip6_make_flowlabel() net: remove some sparse warnings flow_keys: n_proto type should be __be16 ip6_gre: fix endianness errors in ip6gre_err qlcnic: Fix NAPI poll routine for Tx completion amd-xgbe: Set RSS enablement based on hardware features amd-xgbe: Adjust for zero-based traffic class count cls_api.c: Fix dumping of non-existing actions' stats. pkt_sched: fq: avoid hang when quantum 0 net: rds: use correct size for max unacked packets and bytes vhost/net: fix up num_buffers endian-ness gianfar: correct the bad expression while writing bit-pattern net: usb: sr9700: Use 'SR_' prefix for the common register macros Revert "drivers/net: Disable UFO through virtio" Revert "drivers/net, ipv6: Select IPv6 fragment idents for virtio UFO packets" ipv6: Select fragment id during UFO segmentation if not set. xen-netback: stop the guest rx thread after a fatal error net/mlx4_core: Fix kernel Oops (mem corruption) when working with more than 80 VFs isdn: off by one in connect_res() ...

In tcf_exts_dump_stats(), ensure that exts->actions is not empty before accessing the first element of that list and calling tcf_action_copy_stats() on it. This fixes some random segvs when adding filters of type "basic" with no particular action. This also fixes the dumping of those "no-action" filters, which more often than not made calls to tcf_action_copy_stats() fail and consequently netlink attributes added by the caller to be removed by a call to nla_nest_cancel().

The commit [8975626e: drm/cirrus: allow 32bpp framebuffers for cirrus drm] broke X modesetting driver because cirrus driver still provides the full list of modes up to 1280x1024 while the 32bpp can support only up to 800x600. We might be able to filter out the invalid modes in mode_valid callback, but unfortunately the bpp in question can't be referred there for now (let me know if there is a better way to retrieve the bpp for the probed fb). So, instead, this patch adds the bpp module option to specify the maximal bpp explicitly and limits the resolutions in get_modes depending on its value. The default value is set to 24 so that the existing stuff keeps working. If you need a new 32bpp feature, specify cirrus.bpp=32 option explicitly.

Vladislav Yasevich says: ==================== Restore UFO support to virtio_net devices commit 3d0ad094 Author: Ben Hutchings <ben@decadent.org.uk> Date: Thu Oct 30 18:27:12 2014 +0000 drivers/net: Disable UFO through virtio Turned off UFO support to virtio-net based devices due to issues with IPv6 fragment id generation for UFO packets. The issue was that IPv6 UFO/GSO implementation expects the fragment id to be supplied in skb_shinfo(). However, for packets generated by the VMs, the fragment id is not supplied which causes all IPv6 fragments to have the id of 0. The problem is that turning off UFO support on tap/macvtap as well as virtio devices caused issues with migrations. Migrations would fail when moving a vm from a kernel supporting expecting UFO to work to the newer kernels that disabled UFO. This series provides a partial solution to address the migration issue. The series allows us to track whether skb_shinfo()->ip6_frag_id has been set by treating value of 0 as unset. This lets GSO code to generate fragment ids if they are necessary (ex: packet was generated by VM or packet socket). Since v3: - Resolved build issue when IPv6 is a module. - Removed trailing white space. Since v2: - Rebase and rebuild to make sure everything works. No changes to the patches were done. Since v1: - Removed the skb bit and use value of 0 as tracker. - Used Eric's suggestion to set fragment id as 0x80000000 if id generation procedure yeilded a 0 result. - Consolidated ipv6 id genration code. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

Vlad Yasevich authored
If the IPv6 fragment id has not been set and we perform fragmentation due to UFO, select a new fragment id. We now consider a fragment id of 0 as unset and if id selection process returns 0 (after all the pertrubations), we set it to 0x80000000, thus giving us ample space not to create collisions with the next packet we may have to fragment. When doing UFO integrity checking, we also select the fragment id if it has not be set yet. This is stored into the skb_shinfo() thus allowing UFO to function correclty. This patch also removes duplicate fragment id generation code and moves ipv6_select_ident() into the header as it may be used during GSO.

Some AMD CS553x devices have read-only BARs because of a firmware or hardware defect. There's a workaround in quirk_cs5536_vsa(), but it no longer works after 36e81648 ("PCI: Restore detection of read-only BARs"). Prior to 36e81648, we filled in res->start; afterwards we leave it zeroed out. The quirk only updated the size, so the driver tried to use a region starting at zero, which didn't work. Expand quirk_cs5536_vsa() to read the base addresses from the BARs and hard-code the sizes. On Nix's system BAR 2's read-only value is 0x6200. Prior to 36e81648, we interpret that as a 512-byte BAR based on the lowest-order bit set. Per datasheet sec 5.6.1, that BAR (MFGPT) requires only 64 bytes; use that to avoid clearing any address bits if a platform uses only 64-byte alignment.

Commit e1a5848e ("ARM: 7924/1: mm: don't bother with reserved ttbr0 when running with LPAE") removed the use of the reserved TTBR0 value for LPAE systems, since the ASID is held in the TTBR and can be updated atomicly with the pgd of the next mm. Unfortunately, this patch forgot to update flush_context, which deliberately avoids marking the local active ASID as allocated, since we used to switch via ASID zero and didn't need to allocate the ASID of the previous mm. The side-effect of this is that we can allocate the same ASID to the next mm and, between flushing the local TLB and updating TTBR0, we can perform speculative TLB fills for userspace nG mappings using the page table of the previous mm. The consequence of this is that the next mm can erroneously hit some mappings of the previous mm. Note that this was made significantly harder to hit by a391263c ("ARM: 8203/1: mm: try to re-use old ASID assignments following a rollover") but is still theoretically possible. This patch fixes the problem by removing the code from flush_context that forces the allocated ASID to zero for the local CPU. Many thanks to the Broadcom guys for tracking this one down.

After commit e9d8b2c2 (xen-netback: disable rogue vif in kthread context), a fatal (protocol) error would leave the guest Rx thread spinning, wasting CPU time. Commit ecf08d2d (xen-netback: reintroduce guest Rx stall detection) made this even worse by removing a cond_resched() from this path. Since a fatal error is non-recoverable, just allow the guest Rx thread to exit. This requires taking additional refs to the task so the thread exiting early is handled safely.
