Commit 7d9e5f42 removed references from certain dsts, but accounting for this never translated down into the fib6 suppression code. This bug was triggered by WireGuard users who use wg-quick(8), which uses the "suppress-prefix" directive to ip-rule(8) for routing all of their internet traffic without routing loops. The test case added here causes the reference underflow by causing packets to evaluate a suppress rule.

The size of individual pages in the page pool in given by an order. The order is the binary logarithm of the number of pages that make up one of the pages in the pool. However, the driver currently passes the number of pages rather than the order, so it ends up wasting quite a bit of memory. Fix this by taking the binary logarithm and passing that in the order field.

Fei Liu reported a crash when doing netperf on a topo of macsec dev over veth: [ 448.919128] refcount_t: underflow; use-after-free. [ 449.090460] Call trace: [ 449.092895] refcount_sub_and_test+0xb4/0xc0 [ 449.097155] tcp_wfree+0x2c/0x150 [ 449.100460] ip_rcv+0x1d4/0x3a8 [ 449.103591] __netif_receive_skb_core+0x554/0xae0 [ 449.108282] __netif_receive_skb+0x28/0x78 [ 449.112366] netif_receive_skb_internal+0x54/0x100 [ 449.117144] napi_gro_complete+0x70/0xc0 [ 449.121054] napi_gro_flush+0x6c/0x90 [ 449.124703] napi_complete_done+0x50/0x130 [ 449.128788] gro_cell_poll+0x8c/0xa8 [ 449.132351] net_rx_action+0x16c/0x3f8 [ 449.136088] __do_softirq+0x128/0x320 The issue was caused by skb's true_size changed without its sk's sk_wmem_alloc increased in tcp/skb_gro_receive(). Later when the skb is being freed and the skb's truesize is subtracted from its sk's sk_wmem_alloc in tcp_wfree(), underflow occurs. macsec is calling gro_cells_receive() to receive a packet, which actually requires skb->sk to be NULL. However when macsec dev is over veth, it's possible the skb->sk is still set if the skb was not unshared or expanded from the peer veth. ip_rcv() is calling skb_orphan() to drop the skb's sk for tproxy, but it is too late for macsec's calling gro_cells_receive(). So fix it by dropping the skb's sk earlier on rx path of macsec.

When removing a cbs instance when offloading is enabled, the crash below can be observed. The problem happens because that when offloading is enabled, the cbs instance is not added to the list. Also, the current code doesn't handle correctly the case when offload is disabled without removing the qdisc: if the link speed changes the credit calculations will be wrong. When we create the cbs instance with offloading enabled, it's not added to the notification list, when later we disable offloading, it's not in the list, so link speed changes will not affect it. The solution for both issues is the same, add the cbs instance being created unconditionally to the global list, even if the link state notification isn't useful "right now".

Juliet Kim says: ==================== net/ibmvnic: serialization fixes This series includes two fixes. The first improves reset code to allow linkwatch_event to proceed during reset. The second ensures that no more than one thread runs in reset at a time. v2: - Separate change param reset from do_reset() - Return IBMVNIC_OPEN_FAILED if __ibmvnic_open fails - Remove setting wait_for_reset to false from __ibmvnic_reset(), this is done in wait_for_reset() - Move the check for force_reset_recovery from patch 1 to patch 2 v3: - Restore reset’s successful return in open failure case v4: - Change resetting flag access to atomic ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

The current code allows more than one thread to run in reset. This can corrupt struct adapter data. Check adapter->resetting before performing a reset, if there is another reset running delay (100 msec) before trying again.

Commit a5681e20 ("net/ibmnvic: Fix deadlock problem in reset") made the change to hold the RTNL lock during a reset to avoid deadlock but linkwatch_event is fired during the reset and needs the RTNL lock. That keeps linkwatch_event process from proceeding until the reset is complete. The reset process cannot tolerate the linkwatch_event processing after reset completes, so release the RTNL lock during the process to allow a chance for linkwatch_event to run during reset. This does not guarantee that the linkwatch_event will be processed as soon as link state changes, but is an improvement over the current code where linkwatch_event processing is always delayed, which prevents transmissions on the device from being deactivated leading transmit watchdog timer to time-out. Release the RTNL lock before link state change and re-acquire after the link state change to allow linkwatch_event to grab the RTNL lock and run during the reset.

struct archdr is only big enough to hold the header of various types of arcnet packets. So to provide enough space to hold the data read from hardware provide a buffer large enough to hold a packet with maximal size. The problem was noticed by the stack protector which makes the kernel oops.

The intention was to have the GEO_TX_POWER_LIMIT command in FW version 36 as well, but not all 8000 family got this feature enabled. The 8000 family is the only one using version 36, so skip this version entirely. If we try to send this command to the firmwares that do not support it, we get a BAD_COMMAND response from the firmware. This fixes https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=204151.

Greg Kroah-Hartman says: ==================== Raw socket cleanups Ori Nimron pointed out that there are a number of places in the kernel where you can create a raw socket, without having to have the CAP_NET_RAW permission. To resolve this, here's a short patch series to test these odd and old protocols for this permission before allowing the creation to succeed All patches are currently against the net tree. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.
