The dependency is reversed: cpsw and netcp call into cpts, but cpts depends on the other two in Kconfig. This can lead to cpts being a loadable module and its callers built-in: drivers/net/ethernet/ti/cpsw.o: In function `cpsw_remove': cpsw.c:(.text.cpsw_remove+0xd0): undefined reference to `cpts_release' drivers/net/ethernet/ti/cpsw.o: In function `cpsw_rx_handler': cpsw.c:(.text.cpsw_rx_handler+0x2dc): undefined reference to `cpts_rx_timestamp' drivers/net/ethernet/ti/cpsw.o: In function `cpsw_tx_handler': cpsw.c:(.text.cpsw_tx_handler+0x7c): undefined reference to `cpts_tx_timestamp' drivers/net/ethernet/ti/cpsw.o: In function `cpsw_ndo_stop': As a workaround, I'm introducing another Kconfig symbol to control the compilation of cpts, while making the actual module controlled by a silent symbol that is =y when necessary.

The net_cls controller controls the classid field of each socket which is associated with the cgroup. Because the classid is per-socket attribute, when a task migrates to another cgroup or the configured classid of the cgroup changes, the controller needs to walk all sockets and update the classid value, which was implemented by 3b13758f ("cgroups: Allow dynamically changing net_classid"). While the approach is not scalable, migrating tasks which have a lot of fds attached to them is rare and the cost is born by the ones initiating the operations. However, for simplicity, both the migration and classid config change paths call update_classid() which scans all fds of all tasks in the target css. This is an overkill for the migration path which only needs to cover a much smaller subset of tasks which are actually getting migrated in. On cgroup v1, this can lead to unexpected scalability issues when one tries to migrate a task or process into a net_cls cgroup which already contains a lot of fds. Even if the migration traget doesn't have many to get scanned, update_classid() ends up scanning all fds in the target cgroup which can be extremely numerous. Unfortunately, on cgroup v2 which doesn't use net_cls, the problem is even worse. Before bfc2cf6f ("cgroup: call subsys->*attach() only for subsystems which are actually affected by migration"), cgroup core would call the ->css_attach callback even for controllers which don't see actual migration to a different css. As net_cls is always disabled but still mounted on cgroup v2, whenever a process is migrated on the cgroup v2 hierarchy, net_cls sees identity migration from root to root and cgroup core used to call ->css_attach callback for those. The net_cls ->css_attach ends up calling update_classid() on the root net_cls css to which all processes on the system belong to as the controller isn't used. This makes any cgroup v2 migration O(total_number_of_fds_on_the_system) which is horrible and easily leads to noticeable stalls triggering RCU stall warnings and so on. The worst symptom is already fixed in upstream by bfc2cf6f ("cgroup: call subsys->*attach() only for subsystems which are actually affected by migration"); however, backporting that commit is too invasive and we want to avoid other cases too. This patch updates net_cls's cgrp_attach() to iterate fds of only the processes which are actually getting migrated. This removes the surprising migration cost which is dependent on the total number of fds in the target cgroup. As this leaves write_classid() the only user of update_classid(), open-code the helper into write_classid().

Merge of 'linux-kselftest-4.11-rc1': 1. Partially removed use of 'test_objs' target, breaking force rebuild of BPFOBJ, introduced in commit d498f871 ("bpf: Rebuild bpf.o for any dependency update"). Update target so dependency on BPFOBJ is restored. 2. Introduced commit 2047f1d8 ("selftests: Fix the .c linking rule") which fixes order of LDLIBS. Commit d02d8986 ("bpf: Always test unprivileged programs") added libcap dependency into CFLAGS. Use LDLIBS instead to fix linking of test_verifier. 3. Introduced commit d83c3ba0 ("selftests: Fix selftests build to just build, not run tests"). Reordering the Makefile allows us to remove the 'all' target.

SOF_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_STATS can be enabled and disabled while packets are collected on the error queue. So, checking SOF_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_STATS in sk->sk_tsflags is not enough to safely assume that the skb contains OPT_STATS data.

__sock_recv_timestamp can be called for both normal skbs (for receive timestamps) and for skbs on the error queue (for transmit timestamps). Commit 1c885808 (tcp: SOF_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_STATS option for SO_TIMESTAMPING) assumes any skb passed to __sock_recv_timestamp are from the error queue, containing OPT_STATS in the content of the skb. This results in accessing invalid memory or generating junk data. To fix this, set skb->pkt_type to PACKET_OUTGOING for packets on the error queue. This is safe because on the receive path on local sockets skb->pkt_type is never set to PACKET_OUTGOING. With that, copy OPT_STATS from a packet, only if its pkt_type is PACKET_OUTGOING.

The VRF driver takes a reference to the inet6_dev on the VRF device for its rt6_local dst when handling local traffic through the VRF device as a loopback. When the device is deleted the driver does a put on the idev but does not reset rt6i_idev in the rt6_info struct. When the dst is destroyed, dst_destroy calls ip6_dst_destroy which does a second put for what is essentially the same reference causing it to be prematurely freed. Reset rt6i_idev after the put in the vrf driver.

Dmitry has reported that a BUG_ON() condition in unix_notinflight() may be triggered by a simple code that forwards unix socket in an SCM_RIGHTS message. That is caused by incorrect unix socket GC implementation in unix_gc(). The GC first collects list of candidates, then (a) decrements their "children's" inflight counter, (b) checks which inflight counters are now 0, and then (c) increments all inflight counters back. (a) and (c) are done by calling scan_children() with inc_inflight or dec_inflight as the second argument. Commit 6209344f ("net: unix: fix inflight counting bug in garbage collector") changed scan_children() such that it no longer considers sockets that do not have UNIX_GC_CANDIDATE flag. It also added a block of code that that unsets this flag _before_ invoking scan_children(, dec_iflight, ). This may lead to incorrect inflight counters for some sockets. This change fixes this bug by changing order of operations: UNIX_GC_CANDIDATE is now unset only after all inflight counters are restored to the original state. kernel BUG at net/unix/garbage.c:149!

Commit b369e7fd ("tcp: make TCP_INFO more consistent") moved lock_sock_fast() earlier in tcp_get_info() This has the minor effect that jiffies value being sampled at the beginning of tcp_get_info() is more likely to be off by one, and we report big tcpi_last_data_sent values (like 0xFFFFFFFF). Since we lock the socket, fetching tcp_time_stamp right before doing the jiffies_to_msecs() calls is enough to remove these wrong values.

If we receive a BUSY packet for a call we think we've just completed, the packet is handed off to the connection processor to deal with - but the connection processor doesn't expect a BUSY packet and so flags a protocol error. Fix this by simply ignoring the BUSY packet for the moment. The symptom of this may appear as a system call failing with EPROTO. This may be triggered by pressing ctrl-C under some circumstances. This comes about we abort calls due to interruption by a signal (which we shouldn't do, but that's going to be a large fix and mostly in fs/afs/). What happens is that we abort the call and may also abort follow up calls too (this needs offloading somehoe). So we see a transmission of something like the following sequence of packets: DATA for call N ABORT call N DATA for call N+1 ABORT call N+1 in very quick succession on the same channel. However, the peer may have deferred the processing of the ABORT from the call N to a background thread and thus sees the DATA message from the call N+1 coming in before it has cleared the channel. Thus it sends a BUSY packet[*]. [*] Note that some implementations (OpenAFS, for example) mark the BUSY packet with one plus the callNumber of the call prior to call N. Ordinarily, this would be call N, but there's no requirement for the calls on a channel to be numbered strictly sequentially (the number is required to increase). This is wrong and means that the callNumber in the BUSY packet should be ignored (it really ought to be N+1 since that's what it's in response to).

Some Hypervisors detach VFs from VMs by instantly causing an FLR event to be generated for a VF. In the mlx4 case, this will cause that VF's comm channel to be disabled before the VM has an opportunity to invoke the VF device's "shutdown" method. For such Hypervisors, there is a race condition between the VF's shutdown method and its internal-error detection/reset thread. The internal-error detection/reset thread (which runs every 5 seconds) also detects a disabled comm channel. If the internal-error detection/reset flow wins the race, we still get delays (while that flow tries repeatedly to detect comm-channel recovery). The cited commit fixed the command timeout problem when the internal-error detection/reset flow loses the race. This commit avoids the unneeded delays when the internal-error detection/reset flow wins.

Sowmini pointed out Dmitry's RTNL deadlock report to me, and it turns out to be perfectly accurate - there are various error paths that miss unlock of the RTNL. To fix those, change the locking a bit to not be conditional in all those nl80211_prepare_*_dump() functions, but make those require the RTNL to start with, and fix the buggy error paths. This also let me use sparse (by appropriately overriding the rtnl_lock/rtnl_unlock functions) to validate the changes.

I mistakenly added the code to release sk->sk_frag in sk_common_release() instead of sk_destruct() TCP sockets using sk->sk_allocation == GFP_ATOMIC do no call sk_common_release() at close time, thus leaking one (order-3) page. iSCSI is using such sockets.

Newer hardware does not provide a cumulative payload length when multiple descriptors are needed to handle the data. Once the MTU increases beyond the size that can be handled by a single descriptor, the SKB does not get built properly by the driver. The driver will now calculate the size of the data buffers used by the hardware. The first buffer of the first descriptor is for packet headers or packet headers and data when the headers can't be split. Subsequent descriptors in a multi-descriptor chain will not use the first buffer. The second buffer is used by all the descriptors in the chain for payload data. Based on whether the driver is processing the first, intermediate, or last descriptor it can calculate the buffer usage and build the SKB properly. Tested and verified on both old and new hardware.
