John reported that my previous commit added a regression on his router. This is because sender_cpu & napi_id share a common location, so get_xps_queue() can see garbage and perform an out of bound access. We need to make sure sender_cpu is cleared before doing the transmit, otherwise any NIC busy poll enabled (skb_mark_napi_id()) can trigger this bug.

sysctl has sysctl.net.core.rmem_*/wmem_* parameters which can be set to incorrect values. Given that 'struct sk_buff' allocates from rcvbuf, incorrectly set buffer length could result to memory allocation failures. For example, set them as follows: # sysctl net.core.rmem_default=64 net.core.wmem_default = 64 # sysctl net.core.wmem_default=64 net.core.wmem_default = 64 # ping localhost -s 1024 -i 0 > /dev/null This could result to the following failure: skbuff: skb_over_panic: text:ffffffff81628db4 len:-32 put:-32 head:ffff88003a1cc200 data:ffff88003a1cc200 tail:0xffffffe0 end:0xc0 dev:<NULL> kernel BUG at net/core/skbuff.c:102! invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] SMP ... task: ffff88003b7f5550 ti: ffff88003ae88000 task.ti: ffff88003ae88000 RIP: 0010:[<ffffffff8155fbd1>] [<ffffffff8155fbd1>] skb_put+0xa1/0xb0 RSP: 0018:ffff88003ae8bc68 EFLAGS: 00010296 RAX: 000000000000008d RBX: 00000000ffffffe0 RCX: 0000000000000000 RDX: ffff88003fdcf598 RSI: ffff88003fdcd9c8 RDI: ffff88003fdcd9c8 RBP: ffff88003ae8bc88 R08: 0000000000000001 R09: 0000000000000000 R10: 0000000000000001 R11: 00000000000002b2 R12: 0000000000000000 R13: 0000000000000000 R14: ffff88003d3f7300 R15: ffff88000012a900 FS: 00007fa0e2b4a840(0000) GS:ffff88003fc00000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 0000000080050033 CR2: 0000000000d0f7e0 CR3: 000000003b8fb000 CR4: 00000000000006f0 Stack: ffff88003a1cc200 00000000ffffffe0 00000000000000c0 ffffffff818cab1d ffff88003ae8bd68 ffffffff81628db4 ffff88003ae8bd48 ffff88003b7f5550 ffff880031a09408 ffff88003b7f5550 ffff88000012aa48 ffff88000012ab00 Call Trace: [<ffffffff81628db4>] unix_stream_sendmsg+0x2c4/0x470 [<ffffffff81556f56>] sock_write_iter+0x146/0x160 [<ffffffff811d9612>] new_sync_write+0x92/0xd0 [<ffffffff811d9cd6>] vfs_write+0xd6/0x180 [<ffffffff811da499>] SyS_write+0x59/0xd0 [<ffffffff81651532>] system_call_fastpath+0x12/0x17 Code: 00 00 48 89 44 24 10 8b 87 c8 00 00 00 48 89 44 24 08 48 8b 87 d8 00 00 00 48 c7 c7 30 db 91 81 48 89 04 24 31 c0 e8 4f a8 0e 00 <0f> 0b eb fe 66 66 2e 0f 1f 84 00 00 00 00 00 55 48 89 e5 48 83 RIP [<ffffffff8155fbd1>] skb_put+0xa1/0xb0 RSP <ffff88003ae8bc68> Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception Moreover, the possible minimum is 1, so we can get another kernel panic: ...

Commit 814d488c ("tcp: fix the timid additive increase on stretch ACKs") fixed a bug where tcp_cong_avoid_ai() would either credit a connection with an increase of snd_cwnd_cnt, or increase snd_cwnd, but not both, resulting in cwnd increasing by 1 packet on at most every alternate invocation of tcp_cong_avoid_ai(). Although the commit correctly implemented the CUBIC algorithm, which can increase cwnd by as much as 1 packet per 1 packet ACKed (2x per RTT), in practice that could be too aggressive: in tests on network paths with small buffers, YouTube server retransmission rates nearly doubled. This commit restores CUBIC to a maximum cwnd growth rate of 1 packet per 2 packets ACKed (1.5x per RTT). In YouTube tests this restored retransmit rates to low levels. Testing: This patch has been tested in datacenter netperf transfers and live youtube.com and google.com servers.

Neal Cardwell authored
The recent change to tcp_cong_avoid_ai() to handle stretch ACKs introduced a bug where snd_cwnd_cnt could accumulate a very large value while w was large, and then if w was reduced snd_cwnd could be incremented by a large delta, leading to a large burst and high packet loss. This was tickled when CUBIC's bictcp_update() sets "ca->cnt = 100 * cwnd". This bug crept in while preparing the upstream version of 814d488c.

It also contains fixes to ftrace when /proc/sys/kernel/ftrace_enabled and function tracing are started. Doing the following causes some issues: # echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/ftrace_enabled # echo function_graph > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer # echo 1 > /proc/sys/kernel/ftrace_enabled # echo nop > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer # echo function_graph > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer As well as with function tracing too. Pratyush Anand first reported this issue to me and supplied a patch. When I tested this on my x86 test box, it caused thousands of backtraces and warnings to appear in dmesg, which also caused a denial of service (a warning for every function that was listed). I applied Pratyush's patch but it did not fix the issue for me. I looked into it and found a slight problem with trampoline accounting. I fixed it and sent Pratyush a patch, but he said that it did not fix the issue for him. I later learned tha Pratyush was using an ARM64 server, and when I tested on my ARM board, I was able to reproduce the same issue as Pratyush. After applying his patch, it fixed the problem. The above test uncovered two different bugs, one in x86 and one in ARM and ARM64. As this looked like it would affect PowerPC, I tested it on my PPC64 box. It too broke, but neither the patch that fixed ARM or x86 fixed this box (the changes were all in generic code!). The above test, uncovered two more bugs that affected PowerPC. Again, the changes were only done to generic code. It's the way the arch code expected things to be done that was different between the archs. Some where more sensitive than others.

Pull workqueue fix from Tejun Heo: "One fix patch for a subtle livelock condition which can happen on PREEMPT_NONE kernels involving two racing cancel_work calls. Whoever comes in the second has to wait for the previous one to finish. This was implemented by making the later one block for the same condition that the former would be (work item completion) and then loop and retest; unfortunately, depending on the wake up order, the later one could lock out the former one to finish by busy looping on the cpu. This is fixed by implementing explicit wait mechanism. Work item might not belong anywhere at this point and there's remote possibility of thundering herd problem. I originally tried to use bit_waitqueue but it didn't work for static work items on modules. It's currently using single wait queue with filtering wake up function and exclusive wakeup. If this ever becomes a problem, which is not very likely, we can try to figure out a way to piggy back on bit_waitqueue" * 'for-4.0-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/wq: workqueue: fix hang involving racing cancel[_delayed]_work_sync()'s for PREEMPT_NONE

Jon Paul Maloy authored
In commit c637c103 ("tipc: resolve race problem at unicast message reception") we introduced a new mechanism for delivering buffers upwards from link to socket layer. That code contains a bug in how we handle the new link input queue during failover. When a link is reset, some of its users may be blocked because of congestion, and in order to resolve this, we add any pending wakeup pseudo messages to the link's input queue, and deliver them to the socket. This misses the case where the other, remaining link also may have congested users. Currently, the owner node's reference to the remaining link's input queue is unconditionally overwritten by the reset link's input queue. This has the effect that wakeup events from the remaining link may be unduely delayed (but not lost) for a potentially long period. We fix this by adding the pending events from the reset link to the input queue that is currently referenced by the node, whichever one it is. This commit should be applied to both net and net-next.

When an interface is deleted from a net namespace the ifindex in the corresponding entries in PF_PACKET sockets' mclists becomes stale. This can create inconsistencies if later an interface with the same ifindex is moved from a different namespace (not that unlikely since ifindexes are per-namespace). In particular we saw problems with dev->promiscuity, resulting in "promiscuity touches roof, set promiscuity failed. promiscuity feature of device might be broken" warnings and EOVERFLOW failures of setsockopt(PACKET_ADD_MEMBERSHIP). This patch deletes the mclist entries for interfaces that are deleted. Since this now causes setsockopt(PACKET_DROP_MEMBERSHIP) to fail with EADDRNOTAVAIL if called after the interface is deleted, also make packet_mc_drop not fail.

Some archs (specifically PowerPC), are sensitive with the ordering of the enabling of the calls to function tracing and setting of the function to use to be traced. That is, update_ftrace_function() sets what function the ftrace_caller trampoline should call. Some archs require this to be set before calling ftrace_run_update_code(). Another bug was discovered, that ftrace_startup_sysctl() called ftrace_run_update_code() directly. If the function the ftrace_caller trampoline changes, then it will not be updated. Instead a call to ftrace_startup_enable() should be called because it tests to see if the callback changed since the code was disabled, and will tell the arch to update appropriately. Most archs do not need this notification, but PowerPC does. The problem could be seen by the following commands: # echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/ftrace_enabled # echo function > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer # echo 1 > /proc/sys/kernel/ftrace_enabled # cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace The trace will show that function tracing was not active.

When ftrace is enabled globally through the proc interface, we must check if ftrace_graph_active is set. If it is set, then we should also pass the FTRACE_START_FUNC_RET command to ftrace_run_update_code(). Similarly, when ftrace is disabled globally through the proc interface, we must check if ftrace_graph_active is set. If it is set, then we should also pass the FTRACE_STOP_FUNC_RET command to ftrace_run_update_code(). Consider the following situation. # echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/ftrace_enabled After this ftrace_enabled = 0. # echo function_graph > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer Since ftrace_enabled = 0, ftrace_enable_ftrace_graph_caller() is never called. # echo 1 > /proc/sys/kernel/ftrace_enabled Now ftrace_enabled will be set to true, but still ftrace_enable_ftrace_graph_caller() will not be called, which is not desired. Further if we execute the following after this: # echo nop > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer Now since ftrace_enabled is set it will call ftrace_disable_ftrace_graph_caller(), which causes a kernel warning on the ARM platform. On the ARM platform, when ftrace_enable_ftrace_graph_caller() is called, it checks whether the old instruction is a nop or not. If it's not a nop, then it returns an error. If it is a nop then it replaces instruction at that address with a branch to ftrace_graph_caller. ftrace_disable_ftrace_graph_caller() behaves just the opposite. Therefore, if generic ftrace code ever calls either ftrace_enable_ftrace_graph_caller() or ftrace_disable_ftrace_graph_caller() consecutively two times in a row, then it will return an error, which will cause the generic ftrace code to raise a warning. Note, x86 does not have an issue with this because the architecture specific code for ftrace_enable_ftrace_graph_caller() and ftrace_disable_ftrace_graph_caller() does not check the previous state, and calling either of these functions twice in a row has no ill effect.

When /proc/sys/kernel/ftrace_enabled is set to zero, all function tracing is disabled. But the records that represent the functions still hold information about the ftrace_ops that are hooked to them. ftrace_ops may request "REGS" (have a full set of pt_regs passed to the callback), or "TRAMP" (the ops has its own trampoline to use). When the record is updated to represent the state of the ops hooked to it, it sets "REGS_EN" and/or "TRAMP_EN" to state that the callback points to the correct trampoline (REGS has its own trampoline). When ftrace_enabled is set to zero, all ftrace locations are a nop, so they do not point to any trampoline. But the _EN flags are still set. This can cause the accounting to go wrong when ftrace_enabled is cleared and an ops that has a trampoline is registered or unregistered. For example, the following will cause ftrace to crash: # echo function_graph > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer # echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/ftrace_enabled # echo nop > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer # echo 1 > /proc/sys/kernel/ftrace_enabled # echo function_graph > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer As function_graph uses a trampoline, when ftrace_enabled is set to zero the updates to the record are not done. When enabling function_graph again, the record will still have the TRAMP_EN flag set, and it will look for an op that has a trampoline other than the function_graph ops, and fail to find one.

The Kvaser firmware can only read and write messages that are not crossing the USB endpoint's wMaxPacketSize boundary. While receiving commands from the CAN device, if the next command in the same URB buffer crossed that max packet size boundary, the firmware puts a zero-length placeholder command in its place then moves the real command to the next boundary mark. The driver did not recognize such behavior, leading to missing a good number of rx events during a heavy rx load session. Moreover, a tx URB context only gets freed upon receiving its respective tx ACK event. Over time, the free tx URB contexts pool gets depleted due to the missing ACK events. Consequently, the netif transmission queue gets __permanently__ stopped; no frames could be sent again except after restarting the CAN newtwork interface. Signed-off-by: Ahmed S.

Upon a URB submission failure, the driver calls usb_free_urb() but then manually frees the URB buffer by itself. Meanwhile usb_free_urb() has alredy freed out that transfer buffer since we're the only code path holding a reference to this URB. Remove two of such invalid manual free(). Signed-off-by: Ahmed S.

When accessing CAN network interfaces with AF_PACKET sockets e.g. by dhclient this can lead to a skb_under_panic due to missing skb initialisations. Add the missing initialisations at the CAN skbuff creation times on driver level (rx path) and in the network layer (tx path).
