The result of container_of() operations is never NULL unless the embedded element is the first element of the structure. This is not the case here. The NULL check is therefore unnecessary and misleading. Remove it. This change was made automatically with the following Coccinelle script. @@ type t; identifier v; statement s; @@ <+...

Using netif_info() before the net_device is registered results in ugly messages like the following: sfc 0000:01:00.1 (unnamed net_device) (uninitialized): Solarflare NIC detected Therefore use pci_info() et al until net_device is registered.

The first parameter passed to chnl_recv_cb() can never be NULL since all callers dereferenced it. Consequently, container_of() on it is also never NULL, even though the reference into the structure points to the first element of the structure. The NULL check is therefore unnecessary. On top of that, it is misleading to perform a NULL check on the result of container_of() because the position of the contained element could change, which would make the test invalid. Remove the unnecessary NULL check. This change was made automatically with the following Coccinelle script. @@ type t; identifier v; statement s; @@ <+...

Xuan Zhuo authored
In the case of merge, the page passed into page_to_skb() may be a head page, not the page where the current data is located. So when trying to get the buf where the data is located, you should directly use the pointer(p) to get the address corresponding to the page. At the same time, the offset of the data in the page should also be obtained using offset_in_page(). This patch solves this problem. But if you don’t use this patch, the original code can also run, because if the page is not the page of the current data, the calculated tailroom will be less than 0, and will not enter the logic of build_skb() . The significance of this patch is to modify this logical problem, allowing more situations to use build_skb(). Signed-off-by: Xuan Zhuo <xuanzhuo@linux.alibaba.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Linus Lüssing says: ==================== net: bridge: split IPv4/v6 mc router state and export for batman-adv The following patches are splitting the so far combined multicast router state in the Linux bridge into two ones, one for IPv4 and one for IPv6, for a more fine-grained detection of multicast routers. This avoids sending IPv4 multicast packets to an IPv6-only multicast router and avoids sending IPv6 multicast packets to an IPv4-only multicast router. This also allows batman-adv to make use of the now split information in the final patch. The first eight patches prepare the bridge code to avoid duplicate code or IPv6-#ifdef clutter for the multicast router state split. And contain no functional changes yet. The ninth patch then implements the IPv4+IPv6 multicast router state split. Patch number ten adds IPv4+IPv6 specific timers to the mdb netlink router port dump, so that the timers validity can be checked individually from userspace. The final, eleventh patch exports this now per protocol family multicast router state so that batman-adv can then later make full use of the Multicast Router Discovery (MRD) support in the Linux bridge. The batman-adv protocol format currently expects separate multicast router states for IPv4 and IPv6, therefore it depends on the first patch. batman-adv will then make use of this newly exported functions like this[0].

To properly support routable multicast addresses in batman-adv in a group-aware way, a batman-adv node needs to know if it serves multicast routers.

A multicast router for IPv4 does not imply that the same host also is a multicast router for IPv6 and vice versa. To reduce multicast traffic when a host is only a multicast router for one of these two protocol families, keep router state for IPv4 and IPv6 separately. Similar to how querier state is kept separately. For backwards compatibility for netlink and switchdev notifications these two will still only notify if a port switched from either no IPv4/IPv6 multicast router to any IPv4/IPv6 multicast router or the other way round. However a full netlink MDB router dump will now also include a multicast router timeout for both IPv4 and IPv6. Signed-off-by: Linus Lüssing <linus.luessing@c0d3.blue> Signed-off-by: David S.

In preparation for the upcoming split of multicast router state into their IPv4 and IPv6 variants split router port deletion and notification into two functions. When we disable a port for instance later we want to only send one notification to switchdev and netlink for compatibility and want to avoid sending one for IPv4 and one for IPv6. For that the split is needed. Signed-off-by: Linus Lüssing <linus.luessing@c0d3.blue> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Note that for now br_ip6_multicast_is_router() uses the currently still common ip4_mc_router_timer for now. It will be renamed to ip6_mc_router_timer later when the split is performed. While at it also renames the "1" and "2" constants in br_multicast_is_router() to the MDB_RTR_TYPE_TEMP_QUERY and MDB_RTR_TYPE_PERM enums.

__napi_schedule_irqoff() is an optimized version of __napi_schedule() which can be used where it is known that interrupts are disabled, e.g. in interrupt-handlers, spin_lock_irq() sections or hrtimer callbacks. On PREEMPT_RT enabled kernels this assumptions is not true. Force- threaded interrupt handlers and spinlocks are not disabling interrupts and the NAPI hrtimer callback is forced into softirq context which runs with interrupts enabled as well. Chasing all usage sites of __napi_schedule_irqoff() is a whack-a-mole game so make __napi_schedule_irqoff() invoke __napi_schedule() for PREEMPT_RT kernels. The callers of ____napi_schedule() in the networking core have been audited and are correct on PREEMPT_RT kernels as well.

In the alx driver, all locking depended on the RTNL, but that causes issues with ipconfig ("ip=..." command line) because that waits for the netdev to have a carrier while holding the RTNL, but the alx workers etc. require RTNL, so the carrier won't be set until the RTNL is dropped and can be acquired by alx workers. This causes long delays at boot, as reported by Nikolai Zhubr. Really the only sensible thing to do here is to not use the RTNL for everything, but instead have fine-grained locking for just the driver. Do that, it's not that hard.

Even though the taprio qdisc is designed for multiqueue devices, all the queues still point to the same top-level taprio qdisc. This works and is probably required for software taprio, but at least with offload taprio, it has an undesirable side effect: because the whole qdisc is run when a packet has to be sent, it allows packets in a best-effort class to be processed in the context of a task sending higher priority traffic. If there are packets left in the qdisc after that first run, the NET_TX softirq is raised and gets executed immediately in the same process context. As with any other softirq, it runs up to 10 times and for up to 2ms, during which the calling process is waiting for the sendmsg call (or similar) to return. In my use case, that calling process is a real-time task scheduled to send a packet every 2ms, so the long sendmsg calls are leading to missed timeslots. By attaching each netdev queue to its own qdisc, as it is done with the "classic" mq qdisc, each traffic class can be processed independently without touching the other classes. A high-priority process can then send packets without getting stuck in the sendmsg call anymore. Signed-off-by: Yannick Vignon <yannick.vignon@nxp.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

In function tls_sw_splice_read, before call tls_sw_advance_skb it checks likely(!(flags & MSG_PEEK)), while MSG_PEEK is used for recvmsg, splice supports SPLICE_F_NONBLOCK, SPLICE_F_MOVE, SPLICE_F_MORE, should remove this checking.

This module's remove path calls del_timer(). However, that function does not wait until the timer handler finishes. This means that the timer handler may still be running after the driver's remove function has finished, which would result in a use-after-free. Fix by calling del_timer_sync(), which makes sure the timer handler has finished, and unable to re-schedule itself.

The rcu_head pointer passed to taprio_free_sched_cb is never NULL. That means that the result of container_of() operations on it is also never NULL, even though rcu_head is the first element of the structure embedding it. On top of that, it is misleading to perform a NULL check on the result of container_of() because the position of the contained element could change, which would make the check invalid. Remove the unnecessary NULL check. This change was made automatically with the following Coccinelle script. @@ type t; identifier v; statement s; @@ <+... ( t v = container_of(...); | v = container_of(...); ) ... when != v - if (\( !v \| v == NULL \) ) s ...+> Signed-off-by: Guenter Roeck <linux@roeck-us.net> Signed-off-by: David S.
