Bug has been introduced by commit bb814094 ("ip6tnl: allow to use rtnl ops on fb tunnel"). When ip6_tunnel.ko is unloaded, FB device is delete by rtnl_link_unregister() and then we try to use the pointer in ip6_tnl_destroy_tunnels(). Let's add an handler for dellink, which will never remove the FB tunnel. With this patch it will no more be possible to remove it via 'ip link del ip6tnl0', but it's safer. The same fix was already proposed by Willem de Bruijn <willemb@google.com> for sit interfaces.

When a link local address was added to a sit interface, the corresponding route was not configured. This breaks routing protocols that use the link local address, like OSPFv3. To ease the code reading, I remove sit_route_add(), which only adds v4 mapped routes, and add this kind of route directly in sit_add_v4_addrs(). Thus link local and v4 mapped routes are configured in the same place.

When the local IPv4 endpoint is wilcard (0.0.0.0), the prefix length is correctly set, ie 64 if the address is a link local one or 96 if the address is a v4 mapped one. But when the local endpoint is specified, the prefix length is set to 128 for both kind of address. This patch fix this wrong prefix length.

Bug: The fallback device is created in sit_init_net and assumed to be freed in sit_exit_net. First, it is dereferenced in that function, in sit_destroy_tunnels: struct net *net = dev_net(sitn->fb_tunnel_dev); Prior to this, rtnl_unlink_register has removed all devices that match rtnl_link_ops == sit_link_ops. Commit 205983c4 added the line + sitn->fb_tunnel_dev->rtnl_link_ops = &sit_link_ops; which cases the fallback device to match here and be freed before it is last dereferenced. Fix: This commit adds an explicit .delllink callback to sit_link_ops that skips deallocation at rtnl_unlink_register for the fallback device. This mechanism is comparable to the one in ip_tunnel. It also modifies sit_destroy_tunnels and its only caller sit_exit_net to avoid the offending dereference in the first place. That double lookup is more complicated than required. Test: The bug is only triggered when CONFIG_NET_NS is enabled. It causes a GPF only when CONFIG_DEBUG_SLAB is enabled. Verified that this bug exists at the mentioned commit, at davem-net HEAD and at 3.11.y HEAD. Verified that it went away after applying this patch.

When a transport recovers due to the new coming sack, SCTP should iterate all of its transport_list to locate the __two__ most recently used transport and set to active_path and retran_path respectively. The exising code does not find the two properly - In case of the following list: [most-recent] -> [2nd-most-recent] -> ... Both active_path and retran_path would be set to the 1st element. The bug happens when: 1) multi-homing 2) failure/partial_failure transport recovers Both active_path and retran_path would be set to the same most-recent one, in other words, retran_path would not take its role - an end user might not even notice this issue.

This patch fixes two race conditions between bond_store_updelay/downdelay and bond_store_miimon which could lead to division by zero as miimon can be set to 0 while either updelay/downdelay are being set and thus miss the zero check in the beginning, the zero div happens because updelay/downdelay are stored as new_value / bond->params.miimon.

After commit c9eeec26 ("tcp: TSQ can use a dynamic limit"), several users reported throughput regressions, notably on mvneta and wifi adapters. 802.11 AMPDU requires a fair amount of queueing to be effective. This patch partially reverts the change done in tcp_write_xmit() so that the minimal amount is sysctl_tcp_limit_output_bytes. It also remove the use of this sysctl while building skb stored in write queue, as TSO autosizing does the right thing anyway. Users with well behaving NICS and correct qdisc (like sch_fq), can then lower the default sysctl_tcp_limit_output_bytes value from 128KB to 8KB. This new usage of sysctl_tcp_limit_output_bytes permits each driver authors to check how their driver performs when/if the value is set to a minimum of 4KB. Normally, line rate for a single TCP flow should be possible, but some drivers rely on timers to perform TX completion and too long TX completion delays prevent reaching full throughput.

Also correct the error code for hardware versions that don't support timestamping.

We currently use hdr_len as a hint of head length which is advertised by guest. But when guest advertise a very big value, it can lead to an 64K+ allocating of kmalloc() which has a very high possibility of failure when host memory is fragmented or under heavy stress. The huge hdr_len also reduce the effect of zerocopy or even disable if a gso skb is linearized in guest. To solves those issues, this patch introduces an upper limit (PAGE_SIZE) of the head, which guarantees an order 0 allocation each time. Cc: Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@redhat.com> Cc: Michael S.

Pull networking updates from David Miller: 1) The addition of nftables. No longer will we need protocol aware firewall filtering modules, it can all live in userspace. At the core of nftables is a, for lack of a better term, virtual machine that executes byte codes to inspect packet or metadata (arriving interface index, etc.) and make verdict decisions. Besides support for loading packet contents and comparing them, the interpreter supports lookups in various datastructures as fundamental operations. For example sets are supports, and therefore one could create a set of whitelist IP address entries which have ACCEPT verdicts attached to them, and use the appropriate byte codes to do such lookups. Since the interpreted code is composed in userspace, userspace can do things like optimize things before giving it to the kernel. Another major improvement is the capability of atomically updating portions of the ruleset. In the existing netfilter implementation, one has to update the entire rule set in order to make a change and this is very expensive. Userspace tools exist to create nftables rules using existing netfilter rule sets, but both kernel implementations will need to co-exist for quite some time as we transition from the old to the new stuff. Kudos to Patrick McHardy, Pablo Neira Ayuso, and others who have worked so hard on this. 2) Daniel Borkmann and Hannes Frederic Sowa made several improvements to our pseudo-random number generator, mostly used for things like UDP port randomization and netfitler, amongst other things. In particular the taus88 generater is updated to taus113, and test cases are added. 3) Support 64-bit rates in HTB and TBF schedulers, from Eric Dumazet and Yang Yingliang. 4) Add support for new 577xx tigon3 chips to tg3 driver, from Nithin Sujir. 5) Fix two fatal flaws in TCP dynamic right sizing, from Eric Dumazet, Neal Cardwell, and Yuchung Cheng. 6) Allow IP_TOS and IP_TTL to be specified in sendmsg() ancillary control message data, much like other socket option attributes. From Francesco Fusco. 7) Allow applications to specify a cap on the rate computed automatically by the kernel for pacing flows, via a new SO_MAX_PACING_RATE socket option. From Eric Dumazet. 8) Make the initial autotuned send buffer sizing in TCP more closely reflect actual needs, from Eric Dumazet. 9) Currently early socket demux only happens for TCP sockets, but we can do it for connected UDP sockets too. Implementation from Shawn Bohrer. 10) Refactor inet socket demux with the goal of improving hash demux performance for listening sockets. With the main goals being able to use RCU lookups on even request sockets, and eliminating the listening lock contention. From Eric Dumazet. 11) The bonding layer has many demuxes in it's fast path, and an RCU conversion was started back in 3.11, several changes here extend the RCU usage to even more locations. From Ding Tianhong and Wang Yufen, based upon suggestions by Nikolay Aleksandrov and Veaceslav Falico. 12) Allow stackability of segmentation offloads to, in particular, allow segmentation offloading over tunnels. From Eric Dumazet. 13) Significantly improve the handling of secret keys we input into the various hash functions in the inet hashtables, TCP fast open, as well as syncookies. From Hannes Frederic Sowa. The key fundamental operation is "net_get_random_once()" which uses static keys. Hannes even extended this to ipv4/ipv6 fragmentation handling and our generic flow dissector. 14) The generic driver layer takes care now to set the driver data to NULL on device removal, so it's no longer necessary for drivers to explicitly set it to NULL any more. Many drivers have been cleaned up in this way, from Jingoo Han. 15) Add a BPF based packet scheduler classifier, from Daniel Borkmann. 16) Improve CRC32 interfaces and generic SKB checksum iterators so that SCTP's checksumming can more cleanly be handled. Also from Daniel Borkmann. 17) Add a new PMTU discovery mode, IP_PMTUDISC_INTERFACE, which forces using the interface MTU value. This helps avoid PMTU attacks, particularly on DNS servers. From Hannes Frederic Sowa. 18) Use generic XPS for transmit queue steering rather than internal (re-)implementation in virtio-net.
