      net: smc91x: dont't use SMC_outw for fixing up halfword-aligned data · e9e4ea74
      Will Deacon authored
      SMC_outw invokes an endian-aware I/O accessor, which may change the data
      endianness before writing to the device. This is not suitable for data
      transfers where the memory buffer is simply a string of bytes that does
      not require any byte-swapping.
      
      This patches fixes the smc91x SMC_PUSH_DATA macro so that it uses the
      string I/O accessor for outputting the leading or trailing halfwords on
      halfword-aligned buffers.

      farsync: fix info leak in ioctl · 96b34040
      Salva Peiró authored
      The fst_get_iface() code fails to initialize the two padding bytes of
      struct sync_serial_settings after the ->loopback member. Add an explicit
      memset(0) before filling the structure to avoid the info leak.

      ipv6: Initialize ip6_tnl.hlen in gre tunnel even if no route is found · bf581759
      Oussama Ghorbel authored
      The ip6_tnl.hlen (gre and ipv6 headers length) is independent from the
      outgoing interface, so it would be better to initialize it even when no
      route is found, otherwise its value will be zero.
      While I'm not sure if this could happen in real life, but doing that
      will avoid to call the skb_push function with a zero in ip6gre_header
      function.

      netem: free skb's in tree on reset · ff704050
      stephen hemminger authored
      Netem can leak memory because packets get stored in red-black
      tree and it is not cleared on reset.

      When packet is dropped from rb-tree netem the backlog statistic should
      also be updated.

      l2tp: must disable bh before calling l2tp_xmit_skb() · 455cc32b
      Eric Dumazet authored
      François Cachereul made a very nice bug report and suspected
      the bh_lock_sock() / bh_unlok_sock() pair used in l2tp_xmit_skb() from
      process context was not good.
      
      This problem was added by commit 6af88da1
      ("l2tp: Fix locking in l2tp_core.c").
      
      l2tp_eth_dev_xmit() runs from BH context, so we must disable BH
      from other l2tp_xmit_skb() users.

      net: sh_eth: Correct fix for RX packet errors on R8A7740 · cc23528d
      Simon Horman authored
      Nguyen Hong Ky posted a patch to correct RX packet errors on R8A7740 which
      was applied as 2c6221e4 ("net: sh_eth: Fix RX packets errors on
      R8A7740"). Unfortunately sh_eth.c contains many similar instances
      of struct sh_eth_cpu_data and the patch was miss-applied, updating
      sh7734_data instead of r8a7740_data.
      
      This patch corrects this problem by.
      1. Reverting the change to sh7734_data and;
      2. Applying the change to r8a7740_data.

      vti: get rid of nf mark rule in prerouting · 7263a518
      Christophe Gouault authored
      This patch fixes and improves the use of vti interfaces (while
      lightly changing the way of configuring them).
      
      Currently:
      
      - it is necessary to identify and mark inbound IPsec
        packets destined to each vti interface, via netfilter rules in
        the mangle table at prerouting hook.
      
      - the vti module cannot retrieve the right tunnel in input since
        commit b9959fd3: vti tunnels all have an i_key, but the tunnel lookup
        is done with flag TUNNEL_NO_KEY, so there no chance to retrieve them.
      
      - the i_key is used by the outbound processing as a mark to lookup
        for the right SP and SA bundle.
      
      This patch uses the o_key to store the vti mark (instead of i_key) and
      enables:
      
      - to avoid the need for previously marking the inbound skbuffs via a
        netfilter rule.
      - to properly retrieve the right tunnel in input, only based on the IPsec
        packet outer addresses.
      - to properly perform an inbound policy check (using the tunnel o_key
        as a mark).
      - to properly perform an outbound SPD and SAD lookup (using the tunnel
        o_key as a mark).
      - to keep the current mark of the skbuff. The skbuff mark is neither
        used nor changed by the vti interface. Only the vti interface o_key
        is used.
      
      SAs have a wildcard mark.
      SPs have a mark equal to the vti interface o_key.
      
      The vti interface must be created as follows (i_key = 0, o_key = mark):
      
         ip link add vti1 mode vti local 1.1.1.1 remote 2.2.2.2 okey 1
      
      The SPs attached to vti1 must be created as follows (mark = vti1 o_key):
      
         ip xfrm policy add dir out mark 1 tmpl src 1.1.1.1 dst 2.2.2.2 \
            proto esp mode tunnel
         ip xfrm policy add dir in  mark 1 tmpl src 2.2.2.2 dst 1.1.1.1 \
            proto esp mode tunnel
      
      The SAs are created with the default wildcard mark. There is no
      distinction between global vs. vti SAs. Just their addresses will
      possibly link them to a vti interface:
      
         ip xfrm state add src 1.1.1.1 dst 2.2.2.2 proto esp spi 1000 mode tunnel \
                       enc "cbc(aes)" "azertyuiopqsdfgh"
      
         ip xfrm state add src 2.2.2.2 dst 1.1.1.1 proto esp spi 2000 mode tunnel \
                       enc "cbc(aes)" "sqbdhgqsdjqjsdfh"
      
      To avoid matching "global" (not vti) SPs in vti interfaces, global SPs
      should no use the default wildcard mark, but explicitly match mark 0.
      
      To avoid a double SPD lookup in input and output (in global and vti SPDs),
      the NOPOLICY and NOXFRM options should be set on the vti interfaces:
      
         echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/vti1/disable_policy
         echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/vti1/disable_xfrm
      
      The outgoing traffic is steered to vti1 by a route via the vti interface:
      
         ip route add 192.168.0.0/16 dev vti1
      
      The incoming IPsec traffic is steered to vti1 because its outer addresses
      match the vti1 tunnel configuration.

      bridge: update mdb expiration timer upon reports. · f144febd
      Vlad Yasevich authored
      commit 9f00b2e7
      	bridge: only expire the mdb entry when query is received
      changed the mdb expiration timer to be armed only when QUERY is
      received.  Howerver, this causes issues in an environment where
      the multicast server socket comes and goes very fast while a client
      is trying to send traffic to it.
      
      The root cause is a race where a sequence of LEAVE followed by REPORT
      messages can race against QUERY messages generated in response to LEAVE.
      The QUERY ends up starting the expiration timer, and that timer can
      potentially expire after the new REPORT message has been received signaling
      the new join operation.  This leads to a significant drop in multicast
      traffic and possible complete stall.
      
      The solution is to have REPORT messages update the expiration timer
      on entries that already exist.
