reipl_method and dump_method have been used in addition to reipl_type and dump_type, because a single reipl_type could be achieved with multiple reipl_method (same for dump_type/method). After dropping non-diag308_set based reipl methods, there is a single method per reipl_type/dump_type and reipl_method and dump_method could be simply removed.

s390 kdump reipl implementation relies on os_info kernel structure residing in old memory being dumped. os_info contains reipl block, which is used (if valid) by the kdump kernel for reipl parameters. The problem is that the reipl block and its checksum inside os_info is updated only when /sys/firmware/reipl/reipl_type is written. This sets an offset of a reipl block for "reipl_type" and re-calculates reipl block checksum. Any further alteration of values under /sys/firmware/reipl/{reipl_type}/ without subsequent write to /sys/firmware/reipl/reipl_type lead to incorrect os_info reipl block checksum. In such a case kdump kernel ignores it and reboots using default logic. To fix this, os_info reipl block update is moved right before kdump execution.

In some cases diag308_set_works used to be misused as "we have valid ipl parmblock", which is not the case when diag308 set works, but there is no ipl parmblock (diag308 store returns DIAG308_RC_NOCONFIG). Such checks are adjusted to reuse ipl_block_valid instead of diag308_set_works.

During setup, qdio takes control of the presented ccw device and replaces the device's IRQ handler with its own. To avoid any interference with conccurent activity on the device, this should be done while holding the device's lock.

During shutdown, qdio returns its ccw device back to control by the upper-layer driver. But there is a remote chance that by the time where the IRQ handler gets switched back, the interrupt for the preceding ccw_device_{clear,halt} hasn't been presented yet. Upper-layer drivers would then need to handle this IRQ - and since the IO is issued with an intparm, it could very well be confused with whatever intparm mechanism the driver uses itself (eg intparm == request address). So when switching over the IRQ handler, also clear the intparm and have upper-layer drivers deal with any such delayed interrupt as if it was unsolicited.

Tests with paes-xts and debugging investigations showed that the ciphers are not always correctly resolved. The rules for cipher priorities seem to be: - Ecb-aes should have a prio greater than the generic ecb-aes. - The mode specialized ciphers (like cbc-aes-s390) should have a prio greater than the sum of the more generic combinations (like cbs(aes)). This patch adjusts the cipher priorities for the s390 aes and paes in kernel crypto implementations.

Commit 3c8ba0d6 ("kernel.h: Retain constant expression output for max()/min()") rewrote our min/max macros to be very clever, but in the meantime resurrected a variable name shadow issue that we had had previously fixed in commit 589a9785 ("min/max: remove sparse warnings when they're nested"). That commit talks about the sparse warnings that this shadowing causes, which we ignored as just a minor annoyance. But it turns out that the sparse warning is the least of our problems. We actually have a real bug due to the shadowing through the interaction with "min_not_zero()", which ends up doing min(__x, __y) internally, and then the new declaration of "__x" and "__y" as new variables in __cmp_once() results in a complete mess of an expression, and "min_not_zero()" doesn't work at all. For some odd reason, this only ever caused (reported) problems on s390, even though it is a generic issue and most of the (obviously successful) testing of the problematic commit had happened on other architectures. Quoting Sebastian Ott: "What happened is that the bio build by the partition detection code was attempted to be split by the block layer because the block queue had a max_sector setting of 0. blk_queue_max_hw_sectors uses min_not_zero." So re-introduce the use of __UNIQUE_ID() to make sure that the min/max macros do not have these kinds of clashes. [ That said, __UNIQUE_ID() itself has several issues that make it less than wonderful. In particular, the "uniqueness" has a fallback on the line number, which means that it's not actually unique in more complex cases if you don't build with gcc or clang (which have working unique counters that aren't tied to line numbers). That historical broken fallback also means that we have that pointless "prefix" argument that doesn't actually make much sense _except_ for the known-broken case. Oh well. ] Fixes: 3c8ba0d6 ("kernel.h: Retain constant expression output for max()/min()") Reported-and-tested-by: Sebastian Ott <sebott@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Cc: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org> Cc: Miguel Ojeda <miguel.ojeda.sandonis@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Ring size is a hint from device about a burst size it can tolerate. Based on benchmarks, set the weight to 2 * vq size. To evaluate this change, another tests were done using netperf(RR, TX) between two machines with Intel(R) Xeon(R) Gold 6133 CPU @ 2.50GHz, and vq size was tweaked through qemu. Results shown below does not show obvious changes. vq size=256 TCP_RR vq size=512 TCP_RR size/sessions/+thu%/+normalize% size/sessions/+thu%/+normalize% 1/ 1/ -7%/ -2% 1/ 1/ 0%/ -2% 1/ 4/ +1%/ 0% 1/ 4/ +1%/ 0% 1/ 8/ +1%/ -2% 1/ 8/ 0%/ +1% 64/ 1/ -6%/ 0% 64/ 1/ +7%/ +3% 64/ 4/ 0%/ +2% 64/ 4/ -1%/ +1% 64/ 8/ 0%/ 0% 64/ 8/ -1%/ -2% 256/ 1/ -3%/ -4% 256/ 1/ -4%/ -2% 256/ 4/ +3%/ +4% 256/ 4/ +1%/ +2% 256/ 8/ +2%/ 0% 256/ 8/ +1%/ -1% vq size=256 UDP_RR vq size=512 UDP_RR size/sessions/+thu%/+normalize% size/sessions/+thu%/+normalize% 1/ 1/ -5%/ +1% 1/ 1/ -3%/ -2% 1/ 4/ +4%/ +1% 1/ 4/ -2%/ +2% 1/ 8/ -1%/ -1% 1/ 8/ -1%/ 0% 64/ 1/ -2%/ -3% 64/ 1/ +1%/ +1% 64/ 4/ -5%/ -1% 64/ 4/ +2%/ 0% 64/ 8/ 0%/ -1% 64/ 8/ -2%/ +1% 256/ 1/ +7%/ +1% 256/ 1/ -7%/ 0% 256/ 4/ +1%/ +1% 256/ 4/ -3%/ -4% 256/ 8/ +2%/ +2% 256/ 8/ +1%/ +1% vq size=256 TCP_STREAM vq size=512 TCP_STREAM size/sessions/+thu%/+normalize% size/sessions/+thu%/+normalize% 64/ 1/ 0%/ -3% 64/ 1/ 0%/ 0% 64/ 4/ +3%/ -1% 64/ 4/ -2%/ +4% 64/ 8/ +9%/ -4% 64/ 8/ -1%/ +2% 256/ 1/ +1%/ -4% 256/ 1/ +1%/ +1% 256/ 4/ -1%/ -1% 256/ 4/ -3%/ 0% 256/ 8/ +7%/ +5% 256/ 8/ -3%/ 0% 512/ 1/ +1%/ 0% 512/ 1/ -1%/ -1% 512/ 4/ +1%/ -1% 512/ 4/ 0%/ 0% 512/ 8/ +7%/ -5% 512/ 8/ +6%/ -1% 1024/ 1/ 0%/ -1% 1024/ 1/ 0%/ +1% 1024/ 4/ +3%/ 0% 1024/ 4/ +1%/ 0% 1024/ 8/ +8%/ +5% 1024/ 8/ -1%/ 0% 2048/ 1/ +2%/ +2% 2048/ 1/ -1%/ 0% 2048/ 4/ +1%/ 0% 2048/ 4/ 0%/ -1% 2048/ 8/ -2%/ 0% 2048/ 8/ 5%/ -1% 4096/ 1/ -2%/ 0% 4096/ 1/ -2%/ 0% 4096/ 4/ +2%/ 0% 4096/ 4/ 0%/ 0% 4096/ 8/ +9%/ -2% 4096/ 8/ -5%/ -1% Acked-by: Michael S.

It is too expensive to pass u64 values via linked list, instead allocate array for them by overall number of mac addresses from netdev. This eventually removes multiple kmalloc() calls, aviod memory fragmentation and allow to put single null check on kmalloc return value in order to prevent a potential null pointer dereference.

syzbot/KMSAN reported that p->dtime was read while it was not yet initialized in : delta = (__u32)jiffies - p->dtime; if (delta < ttl || !refcount_dec_if_one(&p->refcnt)) gc_stack[i] = NULL; This is a false positive, because the inetpeer wont be erased from rb-tree if the refcount_dec_if_one(&p->refcnt) does not succeed. And this wont happen before first inet_putpeer() call for this inetpeer has been done, and ->dtime field is written exactly before the refcount_dec_and_test(&p->refcnt).

The datasheet specifies a 3uS pause after performing a software reset. The default implementation of genphy_soft_reset() does not provide this, so implement soft_reset with the needed pause.

Daniel Borkmann says: ==================== pull-request: bpf 2018-04-09 The following pull-request contains BPF updates for your *net* tree. The main changes are: 1) Two sockmap fixes: i) fix a potential warning when a socket with pending cork data is closed by freeing the memory right when the socket is closed instead of seeing still outstanding memory at garbage collector time, ii) fix a NULL pointer deref in case of duplicates release calls, so make sure to only reset the sk_prot pointer when it's in a valid state to do so, both from John. 2) Fix a compilation warning in bpf_prog_attach_check_attach_type() by moving the function under CONFIG_CGROUP_BPF ifdef since only used there, from Anders. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.
