Johannes Berg says: ==================== netlink/genetlink cleanups & multicast improvements I'm looking at using the multicast group functionality in a way that would benefit from knowing when there are subscribers to avoid collecting the required data when there aren't any. During this I noticed that the unbind for multicast groups doesn't actually work - it's never called when sockets are closed. Luckily, nobody actually uses the functionality. While looking at the code trying to find why it's not called and where the multicast listeners are actually removed, I found the potential cleanup in patch 3. Patch 2 also has a cleanup for a generic netlink API in this area. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Currently, netlink_unbind() is only called when the socket explicitly unbinds, which limits its usefulness (luckily there are no users of it yet anyway.) Call netlink_unbind() also when a socket is released, so it becomes possible to track listeners with this callback and without also implementing a netlink notifier (and checking netlink_has_listeners() in there.)

The code is now confusing to read - first in one function down (netlink_remove) any group subscriptions are implicitly removed by calling __sk_del_bind_node(), but the subscriber database is only updated far later by calling netlink_update_listeners(). Move the latter call to just after removal from the list so it is easier to follow the code. This also enables moving the locking inside the kernel-socket conditional, which improves the normal socket destruction path.

There's no point to force the caller to know about the internal genl_sock to use inside struct net, just have them pass the network namespace. This doesn't really change code generation since it's an inline, but makes the caller less magic - there's never any reason to pass another socket.

GSO isn't the only offload feature with restrictions that potentially can't be expressed with the current features mechanism. Checksum is another although it's a general issue that could in theory apply to anything. Even if it may be possible to implement these restrictions in other ways, it can result in duplicate code or inefficient per-packet behavior. This generalizes ndo_gso_check so that drivers can remove any features that don't make sense for a given packet, similar to netif_skb_features(). It also converts existing driver restrictions to the new format, completing the work that was done to support tunnel protocols since the issues apply to checksums as well. By actually removing features from the set that are used to do offloading, it solves another problem with the existing interface. In these cases, GSO would run with the original set of features and not do anything because it appears that segmentation is not required.

Use generic config_init callback also for KSZ8021 and KSZ8031. This has been avoided this far due to commit b838b4ac ("phy/micrel: KSZ8031RNL RMII clock reconfiguration bug"), which claims that the PHY becomes unresponsive if the broadcast-disable flag is set before configuring the clock mode. Turns out that the problem seemingly worked-around by the above mentioned commit was really due to a hardware-configuration issue, where the PHY was in fact strapped to address 3 rather than 0.

When using VXLAN tunnels and a sky2 device, I have experienced checksum failures of the following type: [ 4297.761899] eth0: hw csum failure [...] [ 4297.765223] Call Trace: [ 4297.765224] <IRQ> [<ffffffff8172f026>] dump_stack+0x46/0x58 [ 4297.765235] [<ffffffff8162ba52>] netdev_rx_csum_fault+0x42/0x50 [ 4297.765238] [<ffffffff8161c1a0>] ? skb_push+0x40/0x40 [ 4297.765240] [<ffffffff8162325c>] __skb_checksum_complete+0xbc/0xd0 [ 4297.765243] [<ffffffff8168c602>] tcp_v4_rcv+0x2e2/0x950 [ 4297.765246] [<ffffffff81666ca0>] ? ip_rcv_finish+0x360/0x360 These are reliably reproduced in a network topology of: container:eth0 == host(OVS VXLAN on VLAN) == bond0 == eth0 (sky2) -> switch When VXLAN encapsulated traffic is received from a similarly configured peer, the above warning is generated in the receive processing of the encapsulated packet. Note that the warning is associated with the container eth0. The skbs from sky2 have ip_summed set to CHECKSUM_COMPLETE, and because the packet is an encapsulated Ethernet frame, the checksum generated by the hardware includes the inner protocol and Ethernet headers. The receive code is careful to update the skb->csum, except in __dev_forward_skb, as called by dev_forward_skb. __dev_forward_skb calls eth_type_trans, which in turn calls skb_pull_inline(skb, ETH_HLEN) to skip over the Ethernet header, but does not update skb->csum when doing so. This patch resolves the problem by adding a call to skb_postpull_rcsum to update the skb->csum after the call to eth_type_trans.

When controllers set the HCI_QUIRK_INVALID_BDADDR flag, it is required by userspace to program a valid public Bluetooth device address into the controller before it can be used. After successful address configuration, the internal state changes and the controller runs the complete initialization procedure. However one small difference is that this is no longer the HCI_SETUP stage. The HCI_SETUP stage is only valid during initial controller setup. In this case the stack runs the initialization as part of the HCI_CONFIG stage. The controller version information, default name and supported commands are only stored during HCI_SETUP. While these information are static, they are not read initially when HCI_QUIRK_INVALID_BDADDR is set. So when running in HCI_CONFIG state, these information need to be updated as well. This especially impacts Bluetooth 4.1 and later controllers using extended feature pages and second event mask page.

skb_scrub_packet() is called when a packet switches between a context such as between underlay and overlay, between namespaces, or between L3 subnets. While we already scrub the packet mark, connection tracking entry, and cached destination, the security mark/context is left intact.

When vlan tags are stacked, it is very likely that the outer tag is stored in skb->vlan_tci and skb->protocol shows the inner tag's vlan_proto. Currently netif_skb_features() first looks at skb->protocol even if there is the outer tag in vlan_tci, thus it incorrectly retrieves the protocol encapsulated by the inner vlan instead of the inner vlan protocol. This allows GSO packets to be passed to HW and they end up being corrupted. Fixes: 58e998c6 ("offloading: Force software GSO for multiple vlan tags.")

Gateway having bandwidth_down equal to zero are not accepted at all and so never added to the Gateway list. For this reason checking the bandwidth_down member in batadv_gw_out_of_range() is useless. This is probably a copy/paste error and this check was supposed to be "!gw_node" only. Moreover, the way the check is written now may also lead to a NULL dereference.

The fragmentation code was replaced in 610bfc6b ("batman-adv: Receive fragmented packets and merge") by an implementation which can handle up to 16 fragments of a packet. The packet is prepared for the split in fragments by the function batadv_frag_send_packet and the actual split is done by batadv_frag_create. Both functions calculate the size of a fragment themself. But their calculation differs because batadv_frag_send_packet also subtracts ETH_HLEN. Therefore, the check in batadv_frag_send_packet "can a full fragment can be created?" may return true even when batadv_frag_create cannot create a full fragment. The function batadv_frag_create doesn't check the size of the skb before splitting it and therefore might try to create a larger fragment than the remaining buffer. This creates an integer underflow and an invalid len is given to skb_split. Signed-off-by: Sven Eckelmann <sven@narfation.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

The fragmentation code was replaced in 610bfc6b ("batman-adv: Receive fragmented packets and merge"). The new code provided a mostly unused parameter skb for the merging function. It is used inside the function to calculate the additionally needed skb tailroom. But instead of increasing its own tailroom, it is only increasing the tailroom of the first queued skb. This is not correct in some situations because the first queued entry can be a different one than the parameter. An observed problem was: 1. packet with size 104, total_size 1464, fragno 1 was received - packet is queued 2. packet with size 1400, total_size 1464, fragno 0 was received - packet is queued at the end of the list 3. enough data was received and can be given to the merge function (1464 == (1400 - 20) + (104 - 20)) - merge functions gets 1400 byte large packet as skb argument 4. merge function gets first entry in queue (104 byte) - stored as skb_out 5. merge function calculates the required extra tail as total_size - skb->len - pskb_expand_head tail of skb_out with 64 bytes 6. merge function tries to squeeze the extra 1380 bytes from the second queued skb (1400 byte aka skb parameter) in the 64 extra tail bytes of skb_out Instead calculate the extra required tail bytes for skb_out also using skb_out instead of using the parameter skb. The skb parameter is only used to get the total_size from the last received packet. This is also the total_size used to decide that all fragments were received.

The commit d75b1ade (net: less interrupt masking in NAPI) breaks caif. It is now required that if the entire budget is consumed when poll returns, the napi poll_list must remain empty. However, like some other drivers caif tries to do a last-ditch check and if there is more work it will call napi_schedule and then immediately process some of this new work. Should the entire budget be consumed while processing such new work then we will violate the new caller contract. This patch fixes this by not touching any work when we reschedule in caif.
