      net sched filters: fix notification of filter delete with proper handle · 9ee78374
      Jamal Hadi Salim authored 
      Daniel says:

While trying out [1][2], I noticed that tc monitor doesn't show the
correct handle on delete:

$ tc monitor
qdisc clsact ffff: dev eno1 parent ffff:fff1
filter dev eno1 ingress protocol all pref 49152 bpf handle 0x2a [...]
deleted filter dev eno1 ingress protocol all pref 49152 bpf handle 0xf3be0c80

some context to explain the above:
The user identity of any tc filter is represented by a 32-bit
identifier encoded in tcm->tcm_handle. Example 0x2a in the bpf filter
above. A user wishing to delete, get or even modify a specific filter
uses this handle to reference it.
Every classifier is free to provide its own semantics for the 32 bit handle.
Example: classifiers like u32 use schemes like 800:1:801 to describe
the semantics of their filters represented as hash table, bucket and
node ids etc.
Classifiers also have internal per-filter representation which is different
from this externally visible identity. Most classifiers set this
internal representation to be a pointer address (which allows fast retrieval
of said filters in their implementations). This internal representation
is referenced with the "fh" variable in the kernel control code.

When a user successfuly deletes a specific filter, by specifying the correct
tcm->tcm_handle, an event is generated to user space which indicates
which specific filter was deleted.

Before this patch, the "fh" value was sent to user space as the identity.
As an example what is shown in the sample bpf filter delete event above
is 0xf3be0c80. This is infact a 32-bit truncation of 0xffff8807f3be0c80
which happens to be a 64-bit memory address of the internal filter
representation (address of the corresponding filter's struct cls_bpf_prog);

After this patch the appropriate user identifiable handle as encoded
in the originating request tcm->tcm_handle is generated in the event.
One of the cardinal rules of netlink rules is to be able to take an
event (such as a delete in this case) and reflect it back to the
kernel and successfully delete the filter. This patch achieves that.

Note, this issue has existed since the original TC action
infrastructure code patch back in 2004 as found in:
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/history/history.git/commit/

      flow_dissector: fix vlan tag handling · bc72f3dd
      Arnd Bergmann authored 
      gcc warns about an uninitialized pointer dereference in the vlan
priority handling:

net/core/flow_dissector.c: In function '__skb_flow_dissect':
net/core/flow_dissector.c:281:61: error: 'vlan' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized]

As pointed out by Jiri Pirko, the variable is never actually used
without being initialized first as the only way it end up uninitialized
is with skb_vlan_tag_present(skb)==true, and that means it does not
get accessed.

However, the warning hints at some related issues that I'm addressing
here:

- the second check for the vlan tag is different from the first one
  that tests the skb for being NULL first, causing both the warning
  and a possible NULL pointer dereference that was not entirely fixed.
- The same patch that introduced the NULL pointer check dropped an
  earlier optimization that skipped the repeated check of the
  protocol type
- The local '_vlan' variable is referenced through the 'vlan' pointer
  but the variable has gone out of scope by the time that it is
  accessed, causing undefined behavior

Caching the result of the 'skb && skb_vlan_tag_present(skb)' check
in a local variable allows the compiler to further optimize the
later check. With those changes, the warning also disappears.

Fixes: d5709f7a ("flow_dissector: For stripped vlan, get vlan info from skb->vlan_tci")

      net: ipv6: Do not consider link state for nexthop validation · d5d32e4b
      David Ahern authored 
      Similar to IPv4, do not consider link state when validating next hops.

Currently, if the link is down default routes can fail to insert:
 $ ip -6 ro add vrf blue default via 2100:2::64 dev eth2
 RTNETLINK answers: No route to host

With this patch the command succeeds.

      net: ipv6: Fix processing of RAs in presence of VRF · 830218c1
      David Ahern authored 
      rt6_add_route_info and rt6_add_dflt_router were updated to pull the FIB
table from the device index, but the corresponding rt6_get_route_info
and rt6_get_dflt_router functions were not leading to the failure to
process RA's:

    ICMPv6: RA: ndisc_router_discovery failed to add default route

Fix the 'get' functions by using the table id associated with the
device when applicable.

Also, now that default routes can be added to tables other than the
default table, rt6_purge_dflt_routers needs to be updated as well to
look at all tables. To handle that efficiently, add a flag to the table
denoting if it is has a default route via RA.

      kalmia: avoid potential uninitialized variable use · e30520c2
      Arnd Bergmann authored 
      The kalmia_send_init_packet() returns zero or a negative return
code, but gcc has no way of knowing that there cannot be a
positive return code, so it determines that copying the ethernet
address at the end of kalmia_bind() will access uninitialized
data:

drivers/net/usb/kalmia.c: In function ‘kalmia_bind’:
arch/x86/include/asm/string_32.h:78:22: error: ‘*((void *)&ethernet_addr+4)’ may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized]
   *((short *)to + 2) = *((short *)from + 2);
                      ^
drivers/net/usb/kalmia.c:138:5: note: ‘*((void *)&ethernet_addr+4)’ was declared here

This warning is harmless, but for consistency, we should make
the check for the return code match what the driver does everywhere
else and just progate it, which then gets rid of the warning.

      macsec: Fix header length if SCI is added if explicitly disabled · e0f841f5
      Tobias Brunner authored 
      Even if sending SCIs is explicitly disabled, the code that creates the
Security Tag might still decide to add it (e.g. if multiple RX SCs are
defined on the MACsec interface).
But because the header length so far only depended on the configuration
option the SCI overwrote the original frame's contents (EtherType and
e.g. the beginning of the IP header) and if encrypted did not visibly
end up in the packet, while the SC flag in the TCI field of the Security
Tag was still set, resulting in invalid MACsec frames.

      at803x: double check SGMII side autoneg · f62265b5
      Zefir Kurtisi authored 
      In SGMII mode, we observed an autonegotiation issue
after power-down-up cycles where the copper side
reports successful link establishment but the
SGMII side's link is down.

This happened in a setup where the at8031 is
connected over SGMII to a eTSEC (fsl gianfar),
but so far could not be reproduced with other
Ethernet device / driver combinations.

This commit adds a wrapper function for at8031
that in case of operating in SGMII mode double
checks SGMII link state when generic aneg_done()
succeeds. It prints a warning on failure but
intentionally does not try to recover from this
state. As a result, if you ever see a warning
'803x_aneg_done: SGMII link is not ok' you will
end up having an Ethernet link up but won't get
any data through. This should not happen, if it
does, please contact the module maintainer.

      Following Cavium's acquisition of qlogic we need to update all the qlogic
drivers maintainer's entries to point to our new e-mail addresses,
as well as update some of the driver's maintainers as those are no longer
working for Cavium.

I would like to thank Sony Chacko and Rajesh Borundia for their support
and development of our various networking drivers.
