      net: core: netpoll: Enable netconsole IPv6 link local address · d016b4a3
      Matwey V. Kornilov authored
      There is no reason to discard using source link local address when
      remote netconsole IPv6 address is set to be link local one.
      
      The patch allows administrators to use IPv6 netconsole without
      explicitly configuring source address:

      rtnetlink: restore handling of dumpit return value in rtnl_dump_all() · 5e1acb4a
      Alexey Kodanev authored
      For non-zero return from dumpit() we should break the loop
      in rtnl_dump_all() and return the result. Otherwise, e.g.,
      we could get the memory leak in inet6_dump_fib() [1]. The
      pointer to the allocated struct fib6_walker there (saved
      in cb->args) can be lost, reset on the next iteration.
      
      Fix it by partially restoring the previous behavior before
      commit c63586dc ("net: rtnl_dump_all needs to propagate
      error from dumpit function"). The returned error from
      dumpit() is still passed further.

      bonding/802.3ad: fix link_failure_count tracking · ea53abfa
      Jarod Wilson authored
      Commit 4d2c0cda set slave->link to
      BOND_LINK_DOWN for 802.3ad bonds whenever invalid speed/duplex values
      were read, to fix a problem with slaves getting into weird states, but
      in the process, broke tracking of link failures, as going straight to
      BOND_LINK_DOWN when a link is indeed down (cable pulled, switch rebooted)
      means we broke out of bond_miimon_inspect()'s BOND_LINK_DOWN case because
      !link_state was already true, we never incremented commit, and never got
      a chance to call bond_miimon_commit(), where slave->link_failure_count
      would be incremented. I believe the simple fix here is to mark the slave
      as BOND_LINK_FAIL, and let bond_miimon_inspect() transition the link from
      _FAIL to either _UP or _DOWN, and in the latter case, we now get proper
      incrementing of link_failure_count again.

      Holger Hoffstätte authored
      Since 4.19 the following error in sysfs has appeared when using the
      r8169 NIC driver:
      
      $cd /sys/module/realtek/drivers
      $ls -l
      ls: cannot access 'mdio_bus:RTL8201F 10/100Mbps Ethernet': No such file or directory
      [..garbled dir entries follow..]
      
      Apparently the forward slash in "10/100Mbps Ethernet" is interpreted
      as directory separator that leads nowhere, and was introduced in commit
      513588dd ("net: phy: realtek: add RTL8201F phy-id and functions").
      
      Fix this by removing the offending slash in the driver name.
      
      Other drivers in net/phy seem to have the same problem, but I cannot
      test/verify them.

      ====================
      net: bql: better deal with GSO
      
      While BQL bulk dequeue works well for TSO packets, it is
      not very efficient as soon as GSO is involved.
      
      On a GSO only workload (UDP or TCP), this patch series
      can save about 8 % of cpu cycles on a 40Gbit mlx4 NIC,
      by keeping optimal batching, and avoiding expensive
      doorbells, qdisc requeues and reschedules.
      
      This patch series :
      
      - Add __netdev_tx_sent_queue() so that drivers
        can implement efficient BQL and xmit_more support.
      
      - Implement a work around in dev_hard_start_xmit()
        for drivers not using __netdev_tx_sent_queue()
      
      - changes mlx4 to use __netdev_tx_sent_queue()
      
      v2: Tariq and Willem feedback addressed.
          added __netdev_tx_sent_queue() (Willem suggestion)

      net: do not abort bulk send on BQL status · fe60faa5
      Eric Dumazet authored
      Before calling dev_hard_start_xmit(), upper layers tried
      to cook optimal skb list based on BQL budget.
      
      Problem is that GSO packets can end up comsuming more than
      the BQL budget.
      
      Breaking the loop is not useful, since requeued packets
      are ahead of any packets still in the qdisc.
      
      It is also more expensive, since next TX completion will
      push these packets later, while skbs are not in cpu caches.
      
      It is also a behavior difference with TSO packets, that can
      break the BQL limit by a large amount.
      
      Note that drivers should use __netdev_tx_sent_queue()
      in order to have optimal xmit_more support, and avoid
      useless atomic operations as shown in the following patch.

      net: bql: add __netdev_tx_sent_queue() · 3e59020a
      Eric Dumazet authored
      When qdisc_run() tries to use BQL budget to bulk-dequeue a batch
      of packets, GSO can later transform this list in another list
      of skbs, and each skb is sent to device ndo_start_xmit(),
      one at a time, with skb->xmit_more being set to one but
      for last skb.
      
      Problem is that very often, BQL limit is hit in the middle of
      the packet train, forcing dev_hard_start_xmit() to stop the
      bulk send and requeue the end of the list.
      
      BQL role is to avoid head of line blocking, making sure
      a qdisc can deliver high priority packets before low priority ones.
      
      But there is no way requeued packets can be bypassed by fresh
      packets in the qdisc.
      
      Aborting the bulk send increases TX softirqs, and hot cache
      lines (after skb_segment()) are wasted.
      
      Note that for TSO packets, we never split a packet in the middle
      because of BQL limit being hit.
      
      Drivers should be able to update BQL counters without
      flipping/caring about BQL status, if the current skb
      has xmit_more set.
      
      Upper layers are ultimately responsible to stop sending another
      packet train when BQL limit is hit.
      
      Code template in a driver might look like the following :
      
      	send_doorbell = __netdev_tx_sent_queue(tx_queue, nr_bytes, skb->xmit_more);
      
      Note that __netdev_tx_sent_queue() use is not mandatory,
      since following patch will change dev_hard_start_xmit()
      to not care about BQL status.
      
      But it is highly recommended so that xmit_more full benefits
      can be reached (less doorbells sent, and less atomic operations as well)

      online. Thus a device that has never been set online will trigger
      a WARN ("network todo 'hsi%d' but state 0") in unregister_netdev() when
      removed.
      
      Fix this by protecting the unregister step, just like we already protect
      against repeated registering of the netdevice.

      s390/qeth: fix HiperSockets sniffer · bd74a7f9
      Julian Wiedmann authored
      Sniffing mode for L3 HiperSockets requires that no IP addresses are
      registered with the HW. The preferred way to achieve this is for
      userspace to delete all the IPs on the interface. But qeth is expected
      to also tolerate a configuration where that is not the case, by skipping
      the IP registration when in sniffer mode.
      Since commit 5f78e29c ("qeth: optimize IP handling in rx_mode callback")
      reworked the IP registration logic in the L3 subdriver, this no longer
      works. When the qeth device is set online, qeth_l3_recover_ip() now
      unconditionally registers all unicast addresses from our internal
      IP table.
      
      While we could fix this particular problem by skipping
      qeth_l3_recover_ip() on a sniffer device, the more future-proof change
      is to skip the IP address registration at the lowest level. This way we
      a) catch any future code path that attempts to register an IP address
         without considering the sniffer scenario, and
      b) continue to build up our internal IP table, so that if sniffer mode
         is switched off later we can operate just like normal.

      s390/qeth: sanitize strings in debug messages · e19e5be8
      Julian Wiedmann authored
      As Documentation/s390/s390dbf.txt states quite clearly, using any
      pointer in sprinf-formatted s390dbf debug entries is dangerous.
      The pointers are dereferenced whenever the trace file is read from.
      So if the referenced data has a shorter life-time than the trace file,
      any read operation can result in a use-after-free.
      
      So rip out all hazardous use of indirect data, and replace any usage of
      dev_name() and such by the Bus ID number.

      ====================
      net: timeout fixes for GENET and SYSTEMPORT
      
      This patch series fixes occasional transmit timeout around the time
      the system goes into suspend. GENET and SYSTEMPORT have nearly the same
      logic in that regard and were both affected in the same way.
      
      Please queue up for stable, thanks!

      net: systemport: Protect stop from timeout · 7cb6a2a2
      Florian Fainelli authored
      A timing hazard exists when the network interface is stopped that
      allows a watchdog timeout to be processed by a separate core in
      parallel. This creates the potential for the timeout handler to
      wake the queues while the driver is shutting down, or access
      registers after their clocks have been removed.
      
      The more common case is that the watchdog timeout will produce a
      warning message which doesn't lead to a crash. The chances of this
      are greatly increased by the fact that bcm_sysport_netif_stop stops
      the transmit queues which can easily precipitate a watchdog time-
      out because of stale trans_start data in the queues.
      
      This commit corrects the behavior by ensuring that the watchdog
      timeout is disabled before enterring bcm_sysport_netif_stop. There
      are currently only two users of the bcm_sysport_netif_stop function:
      close and suspend.
      
      The close case already handles the issue by exiting the RUNNING
      state before invoking the driver close service.
      
      The suspend case now performs the netif_device_detach to exit the
      PRESENT state before the call to bcm_sysport_netif_stop rather than
      after it.
      
      These behaviors prevent any future scheduling of the driver timeout
      service during the window. The netif_tx_stop_all_queues function
      in bcm_sysport_netif_stop is replaced with netif_tx_disable to ensure
      synchronization with any transmit or timeout threads that may
      already be executing on other cores.
      
      For symmetry, the netif_device_attach call upon resume is moved to
      after the call to bcm_sysport_netif_start. Since it wakes the transmit
      queues it is not necessary to invoke netif_tx_start_all_queues from
      bcm_sysport_netif_start so it is moved into the driver open service.

      rxrpc: Fix lockup due to no error backoff after ack transmit error · c7e86acf
      David Howells authored
      If the network becomes (partially) unavailable, say by disabling IPv6, the
      background ACK transmission routine can get itself into a tizzy by
      proposing immediate ACK retransmission.  Since we're in the call event
      processor, that happens immediately without returning to the workqueue
      manager.
      
      The condition should clear after a while when either the network comes back
      or the call times out.
      
      Fix this by:
      
       (1) When re-proposing an ACK on failed Tx, don't schedule it immediately.
           This will allow a certain amount of time to elapse before we try
           again.
      
       (2) Enforce a return to the workqueue manager after a certain number of
           iterations of the call processing loop.
      
       (3) Add a backoff delay that increases the delay on deferred ACKs by a
           jiffy per failed transmission to a limit of HZ.  The backoff delay is
           cleared on a successful return from kernel_sendmsg().
      
       (4) Cancel calls immediately if the opening sendmsg fails.  The layer
           above can arrange retransmission or rotate to another server.

      net/ipv6: Add anycast addresses to a global hashtable · 2384d025
      Jeff Barnhill authored
      icmp6_send() function is expensive on systems with a large number of
      interfaces. Every time it’s called, it has to verify that the source
      address does not correspond to an existing anycast address by looping
      through every device and every anycast address on the device.  This can
      result in significant delays for a CPU when there are a large number of
      neighbors and ND timers are frequently timing out and calling
      neigh_invalidate().
      
      Add anycast addresses to a global hashtable to allow quick searching for
      matching anycast addresses.  This is based on inet6_addr_lst in addrconf.c.
