John W. Linville says: ==================== pull request: wireless 2014-12-03 One last(?) batch of fixes hoping to make 3.18... In this episode, we have another trio of rtlwifi fixes repairing a little more damage from the major update of the rtlwifi-family of drivers. These editing mistakes caused some memory corruption and missed a flag critical to proper interrupt handling. Together, these fix the kernel regression reported at https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=88951 by Catalin Iacob.

This patch is to fix the max coalesce timer setting that can be provided by ethtool. The default value (STMMAC_COAL_TX_TIMER) was used in the set_coalesce helper instead of the max one (STMMAC_MAX_COAL_TX_TICK, so defined but not used).

To accomodate for enough headroom for tunnels, use MAX_HEADER instead of LL_MAX_HEADER. Robert reported that he has hit after roughly 40hrs of trinity an skb_under_panic() via SCTP output path (see reference). I couldn't reproduce it from here, but not using MAX_HEADER as elsewhere in other protocols might be one possible cause for this. In any case, it looks like accounting on chunks themself seems to look good as the skb already passed the SCTP output path and did not hit any skb_over_panic(). Given tunneling was enabled in his .config, the headroom would have been expanded by MAX_HEADER in this case.

In recent testing I had disabled CONFIG_IP_MULTIPLE_TABLES and as a result when I ran "cat /proc/net/fib_trie" the main trie was displayed multiple times. I found that the problem line of code was in the function fib_trie_seq_next. Specifically the line below caused the indexes to go in the opposite direction of our traversal: h = tb->tb_id & (FIB_TABLE_HASHSZ - 1); This issue was that the RT tables are defined such that RT_TABLE_LOCAL is ID 255, while it is located at TABLE_LOCAL_INDEX of 0, and RT_TABLE_MAIN is 254 with a TABLE_MAIN_INDEX of 1. This means that the above line will return 1 for the local table and 0 for main. The result is that fib_trie_seq_next will return NULL at the end of the local table, fib_trie_seq_start will return the start of the main table, and then fib_trie_seq_next will loop on main forever as h will always return 0. The fix for this is to reverse the ordering of the two tables. It has the advantage of making it so that the tables now print in the same order regardless of if multiple tables are enabled or not. In order to make the definition consistent with the multiple tables case I simply masked the to RT_TABLE_XXX values by (FIB_TABLE_HASHSZ - 1). This way the two table layouts should always stay consistent.

The mvneta driver sets the amount of Tx coalesce packets to 16 by default. Normally that does not cause any trouble since the driver uses a much larger Tx ring size (532 packets). But some sockets might run with very small buffers, much smaller than the equivalent of 16 packets. This is what ping is doing for example, by setting SNDBUF to 324 bytes rounded up to 2kB by the kernel. The problem is that there is no documented method to force a specific packet to emit an interrupt (eg: the last of the ring) nor is it possible to make the NIC emit an interrupt after a given delay. In this case, it causes trouble, because when ping sends packets over its raw socket, the few first packets leave the system, and the first 15 packets will be emitted without an IRQ being generated, so without the skbs being freed. And since the socket's buffer is small, there's no way to reach that amount of packets, and the ping ends up with "send: no buffer available" after sending 6 packets. Running with 3 instances of ping in parallel is enough to hide the problem, because with 6 packets per instance, that's 18 packets total, which is enough to grant a Tx interrupt before all are sent. The original driver in the LSP kernel worked around this design flaw by using a software timer to clean up the Tx descriptors. This timer was slow and caused terrible network performance on some Tx-bound workloads (such as routing) but was enough to make tools like ping work correctly. Instead here, we simply set the packet counts before interrupt to 1. This ensures that each packet sent will produce an interrupt. NAPI takes care of coalescing interrupts since the interrupt is disabled once generated. No measurable performance impact nor CPU usage were observed on small nor large packets, including when saturating the link on Tx, and this fixes tools like ping which rely on too small a send buffer. If one wants to increase this value for certain workloads where it is safe to do so, "ethtool -C $dev tx-frames" will override this default setting. This fix needs to be applied to stable kernels starting with 3.10. Tested-By: Maggie Mae Roxas <maggie.mae.roxas@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Willy Tarreau <w@1wt.eu> Signed-off-by: David S.

In sky2_change_mtu setting B0_IMSK to 0 may be delayed due to PCI write posting which could result in irqs being still active when synchronize_irq is called. Since we are not prepared to handle any further irqs after synchronize_irq (our resources are freed after that) force the write by a consecutive read from the same register. Similar situation in sky2_all_down: Here we disabled irqs by a write to B0_IMSK but did not ensure that this write took place before synchronize_irq. Fix that too.

Fix eBPF JIT to emit epilogue when first BPF_EXIT is seen and all other BPF_EXIT instructions will be emitted as jump. Since jump offset to epilogue is computed as: jmp_offset = ctx->cleanup_addr - addrs[i] we need to change type of cleanup_addr to signed to compute the offset as: (long long) ((int)20 - (int)30) instead of: (long long) ((unsigned int)20 - (int)30) Fixes: 62258278 ("net: filter: x86: internal BPF JIT") Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@plumgrid.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Pull devicetree bugfix from Grant Likely: "One more bug fix for v3.18. I debated whether or not to send you this merge request because we're at such a late rc. The bug isn't critical in that there is only one system known to be affected and the patch is easy to backport. The codepath is used by pretty much every DT based system, so there is risk a of regression (it /should/ be safe, but I've been bitten by stuff that should be safe before). I've had it in linux-next for a week and haven't received any complaints. I think it probably should just be merged right away rather than waiting for the merge window and backporting. It does fix a real bug and the code is theoretically safer after the change. I can't think of any situation where it would be dangerous to reserve the DT memory an extra time.

The bounds check for nodeid in ____cache_alloc_node gives false positives on machines where the node IDs are not contiguous, leading to a panic at boot time. For example, on a POWER8 machine the node IDs are typically 0, 1, 16 and 17. This means that num_online_nodes() returns 4, so when ____cache_alloc_node is called with nodeid = 16 the VM_BUG_ON triggers, like this: kernel BUG at /home/paulus/kernel/kvm/mm/slab.c:3079! Call Trace: .____cache_alloc_node+0x5c/0x270 (unreliable) .kmem_cache_alloc_node_trace+0xdc/0x360 .init_list+0x3c/0x128 .kmem_cache_init+0x1dc/0x258 .start_kernel+0x2a0/0x568 start_here_common+0x20/0xa8 To fix this, we instead compare the nodeid with MAX_NUMNODES, and additionally make sure it isn't negative (since nodeid is an int). The check is there mainly to protect the array dereference in the get_node() call in the next line, and the array being dereferenced is of size MAX_NUMNODES. If the nodeid is in range but invalid (for example if the node is off-line), the BUG_ON in the next line will catch that.

Andrew Morton noticed that the error return from anon_vma_clone() was being dropped and replaced with -ENOMEM (which is not itself a bug because the only error return value from anon_vma_clone() is -ENOMEM). I did an audit of callers of anon_vma_clone() and discovered an actual bug where the error return was being lost. In __split_vma(), between Linux 3.11 and 3.12 the code was changed so the err variable is used before the call to anon_vma_clone() and the default initial value of -ENOMEM is overwritten. So a failure of anon_vma_clone() will return success since err at this point is now zero. Below is a patch which fixes this bug and also propagates the error return value from anon_vma_clone() in all cases.

I've been seeing swapoff hangs in recent testing: it's cycling around trying unsuccessfully to find an mm for some remaining pages of swap. I have been exercising swap and page migration more heavily recently, and now notice a long-standing error in copy_one_pte(): it's trying to add dst_mm to swapoff's mmlist when it finds a swap entry, but is doing so even when it's a migration entry or an hwpoison entry. Which wouldn't matter much, except it adds dst_mm next to src_mm, assuming src_mm is already on the mmlist: which may not be so. Then if pages are later swapped out from dst_mm, swapoff won't be able to find where to replace them. There's already a !non_swap_entry() test for stats: move that up before the swap_duplicate() and the addition to mmlist.
