/proc has been ignoring struct file_operations::owner field for 10 years. Specifically, it started with commit 786d7e16 ("Fix rmmod/read/write races in /proc entries"). Notice the chunk where inode->i_fop is initialized with proxy struct file_operations for regular files: - if (de->proc_fops) - inode->i_fop = de->proc_fops; + if (de->proc_fops) { + if (S_ISREG(inode->i_mode)) + inode->i_fop = &proc_reg_file_ops; + else + inode->i_fop = de->proc_fops; + } VFS stopped pinning module at this point.

We have identified a race condition during reception of socket events and messages in the topology server. - The function tipc_close_conn() is releasing the corresponding struct tipc_subscriber instance without considering that there may still be items in the receive work queue. When those are scheduled, in the function tipc_receive_from_work(), they are using the subscriber pointer stored in struct tipc_conn, without first checking if this is valid or not. This will sometimes lead to crashes, as the next call of tipc_conn_recvmsg() will access the now deleted item. We fix this by making the usage of this pointer conditional on whether the connection is active or not. I.e., we check the condition test_bit(CF_CONNECTED) before making the call tipc_conn_recvmsg(). - Since the two functions may be running on different cores, the condition test described above is not enough. tipc_close_conn() may come in between and delete the subscriber item after the condition test is done, but before tipc_conn_recv_msg() is finished. This happens less frequently than the problem described above, but leads to the same symptoms. We fix this by using the existing sk_callback_lock for mutual exclusion in the two functions. In addition, we have to move a call to tipc_conn_terminate() outside the mentioned lock to avoid deadlock. Acked-by:

Igor Russkikh says: ==================== Aquantia atlantic driver update 2018/01 This patch is a set of cleanups and bugfixes in preparation to new Aquantia hardware support. Standard ARRAY_SIZE is now used through all the code, some unused abstraction structures removed and cleaned up, duplicate declarations removed. Also two large declaration styling fixes: - Hardware register set defines are lined up with kernel style - Hardware access functions were not prefixed, now already defined hw_atl prefix is used. patch v2 changes: - patch reorganized because of its big size. New HW support will be submitted as a separate patchset. ==================== Signed-off-by: -

Aleksey Makarov says: ==================== net: thunderx: add support for PTP clock This series adds support for IEEE 1588 Precision Time Protocol to Cavium ethernet driver. The first patch adds support for the Precision Time Protocol Clocks and Timestamping coprocessor (PTP) found on Cavium processors. It registers a new PTP clock in the PTP core and provides functions to use the counter in BGX, TNS, GTI, and NIC blocks. The second patch introduces support for the PTP protocol to the Cavium ThunderX ethernet driver. v6: - check if ptp_clock_register() returns NULL (Richard Cochran) - fix doc comment for cavium_ptp_enable() (Richard Cochran) - fix a function call formatting; use defined constant (Richard Cochran) - add comments for `tx_ptp_skbs` and `ptp_skb` (Richard Cochran) - use adjfine() instead of adjfreq() (Richard Cochran) - add Acked-by: Philippe Ombredanne <pombredanne@nexb.com> v5: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20171211141435.2915-1-aleksey.makarov@cavium.com - fix the file headers (add SPDX tags, remove advertisment) (Philippe Ombredanne) - use "imply" instead of "select" (Richard Cochran) - add some code in cavium_ptp_get() for the case when the PTP driver has not been registered with the PTP core v4: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20171208103442.19354-1-aleksey.makarov@cavium.com - use IS_ENABLED.

This adds timestamping support for both receive and transmit paths. On the receive side no filters are supported i.e either all pkts will get a timestamp appended infront of the packet or none. On the transmit side HW doesn't support timestamp insertion but only generates a separate CQE with transmitted packet's timestamp. Also HW supports only one packet at a time for timestamping on the transmit side. Signed-off-by:

Jiri Pirko says: ==================== devlink: Add support for resource abstraction Arkadi says: Many of the ASIC's internal resources are limited and are shared between several hardware procedures. For example, unified hash-based memory can be used for many lookup purposes, like FDB and LPM. In many cases the user can provide a partitioning scheme for such a resource in order to perform fine tuning for his application. In such cases performing driver reload is needed for the changes to take place, thus this patchset also adds support for hot reload. Such an abstraction can be coupled with devlink's dpipe interface, which models the ASIC's pipeline as a graph of match/action tables. By modeling the hardware resource object, and by coupling it to several dpipe tables, further visibility can be achieved in order to debug ASIC-wide issues. The proposed interface will provide the user the ability to understand the limitations of the hardware, and receive notification regarding its occupancy. Furthermore, monitoring the resource occupancy can be done in real-time and can be useful in many cases. --- v2->v3 - Mix/Max/Gran attributes. - Add resource consumption per table. - Change basic resource unit to 'entry'. - ABI documentation. v1->v2 - Add resource size attribute. - Fix split bug. ==================== Signed-off-by: -

Add support for hot reload. First, all the driver/core resources are released but the PCI and devlink instances, then reset is performed through the PCI interface. Finally the driver performs initialization. In case of reload failure the driver is left in a partially initialized state. Special care is taken during the driver removal in order to properly handle this state. Signed-off-by:

Add support for hardware resource abstraction over devlink. Each resource is identified via id, furthermore it contains information regarding its size and its related sub resources. Each resource can also provide its current occupancy. In some cases the sizes of some resources can be changed, yet for those changes to take place a hot driver reload may be needed. The reload capability will be introduced in the next patch. Signed-off-by:

Arkadi Sharshevsky authored
This is a preparation before introducing resources and hot reload support. Currently there are two global lock where one protects all devlink access, and the second one protects devlink port access. This patch adds per devlink instance lock which protects the internal members which are the sb/dpipe/ resource/ports. By introducing this lock the global devlink port lock can be discarded.

The Gemini ethernet has been around for years as an out-of-tree patch used with the NAS boxen and routers built on StorLink SL3512 and SL3516, later Storm Semiconductor, later Cortina Systems. These ASICs are still being deployed and brand new off-the-shelf systems using it can easily be acquired. The full name of the IP block is "Net Engine and Gigabit Ethernet MAC" commonly just called "GMAC". The hardware block contains a common TCP Offload Enginer (TOE) that can be used by both MACs. The current driver does not use it. Cc: Tobias Waldvogel <tobias.waldvogel@gmail.com> Signed-off-by:
