XDP_REDIRECT support for mergeable buffer was removed since commit 7324f539 ("virtio_net: disable XDP_REDIRECT in receive_mergeable() case"). This is because we don't reserve enough tailroom for struct skb_shared_info which breaks XDP assumption. So this patch fixes this by reserving enough tailroom and using fixed size of rx buffer.

PPP units don't hold any reference on the channels connected to it. It is the channel's responsibility to ensure that it disconnects from its unit before being destroyed. In practice, this is ensured by ppp_unregister_channel() disconnecting the channel from the unit before dropping a reference on the channel. However, it is possible for an unregistered channel to connect to a PPP unit: register a channel with ppp_register_net_channel(), attach a /dev/ppp file to it with ioctl(PPPIOCATTCHAN), unregister the channel with ppp_unregister_channel() and finally connect the /dev/ppp file to a PPP unit with ioctl(PPPIOCCONNECT). Once in this situation, the channel is only held by the /dev/ppp file, which can be released at anytime and free the channel without letting the parent PPP unit know. Then the ppp structure ends up with dangling pointers in its ->channels list. Prevent this scenario by forbidding unregistered channels from connecting to PPP units. This maintains the code logic by keeping ppp_unregister_channel() responsible from disconnecting the channel if necessary and avoids modification on the reference counting mechanism. This issue seems to predate git history (successfully reproduced on Linux 2.6.26 and earlier PPP commits are unrelated). Signed-off-by: Guillaume Nault <g.nault@alphalink.fr> Signed-off-by: David S.

iproute2 print_skbmod() prints the configured ethertype using format 0x%X: therefore, test 9aa8 systematically fails, because it configures action #4 using ethertype 0x0031, and expects 0x0031 when it reads it back.

Until now, we assumed that in case of error when adding FDB entries, the write operation will fail, but this is not the case.

Daniel Axtens says: ==================== GSO_BY_FRAGS correctness improvements As requested [1], I went through and had a look at users of gso_size to see if there were things that need to be fixed to consider GSO_BY_FRAGS, and I have tried to improve our helper functions to deal with this case. I found a few. This fixes bugs relating to the use of skb_gso_*_seglen() where GSO_BY_FRAGS is not considered. Patch 1 renames skb_gso_validate_mtu to skb_gso_validate_network_len. This is follow-up to my earlier patch 2b16f048 ("net: create skb_gso_validate_mac_len()"), and just makes everything a bit clearer. Patches 2 and 3 replace the final users of skb_gso_network_seglen() - which doesn't consider GSO_BY_FRAGS - with skb_gso_validate_network_len(), which does. This allows me to make the skb_gso_*_seglen functions private in patch 4 - now future users won't accidentally do the wrong comparison. Two things remain. One is qdisc_pkt_len_init, which is discussed at [2] - it's caught up in the GSO_DODGY mess. I don't have any expertise in GSO_DODGY, and it looks like a good clean fix will involve unpicking the whole validation mess, so I have left it for now. Secondly, there are 3 eBPF opcodes that change the gso_size of an SKB and don't consider GSO_BY_FRAGS. This is going through the bpf tree. Regards, Daniel [1] https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/comment/1852414/ [2] https://www.spinics.net/lists/netdev/msg482397.html PS: This is all in the core networking stack. For a driver to be affected by this it would need to support NETIF_F_GSO_SCTP / NETIF_F_GSO_SOFTWARE and then either use gso_size or not be a purely virtual device. (Many drivers look at gso_size, but do not support SCTP segmentation, so the core network will segment an SCTP gso before it hits them.) Based on that, the only driver that may be affected is sunvnet, but I have no way of testing it, so I haven't looked at it. v2: split out bpf stuff fix review comments from Dave Miller ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

tbf_enqueue() checks the size of a packet before enqueuing it. However, the GSO size check does not consider the GSO_BY_FRAGS case, and so will drop GSO SCTP packets, causing a massive drop in throughput.

If you take a GSO skb, and split it into packets, will the network length (L3 headers + L4 headers + payload) of those packets be small enough to fit within a given MTU? skb_gso_validate_mtu gives you the answer to that question. However, we recently added to add a way to validate the MAC length of a split GSO skb (L2+L3+L4+payload), and the names get confusing, so rename skb_gso_validate_mtu to skb_gso_validate_network_len Signed-off-by: Daniel Axtens <dja@axtens.net> Reviewed-by: Marcelo Ricardo Leitner <marcelo.leitner@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Commit 0933a578 ("rds: tcp: use sock_create_lite() to create the accept socket") has a reference counting issue in TCP socket creation when accepting a new connection. The code uses sock_create_lite() to create a kernel socket. But it does not do __module_get() on the socket owner. When the connection is shutdown and sock_release() is called to free the socket, the owner's reference count is decremented and becomes incorrect. Note that this bug only shows up when the socket owner is configured as a kernel module. v2: Update comments Fixes: 0933a578 ("rds: tcp: use sock_create_lite() to create the accept socket") Signed-off-by: Ka-Cheong Poon <ka-cheong.poon@oracle.com> Acked-by: Santosh Shilimkar <santosh.shilimkar@oracle.com> Acked-by: Sowmini Varadhan <sowmini.varadhan@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Setting an interface into a VRF fails with 'RTNETLINK answers: File exists' if one of its VLAN interfaces is already in the same VRF. As the VRF is an upper device of the VLAN interface, it is also showing up as an upper device of the interface itself. The solution is to restrict this check to devices other than master. As only one master device can be linked to a device, the check in this case is that the upper device (VRF) being linked to is not the same as the master device instead of it not being any one of the upper devices. The following example shows an interface ens12 (with a VLAN interface ens12.10) being set into VRF green, which behaves as expected: # ip link add link ens12 ens12.10 type vlan id 10 # ip link set dev ens12 master vrfgreen # ip link show dev ens12 3: ens12: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc fq_codel master vrfgreen state UP mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000 link/ether 52:54:00:4c:a0:45 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff But if the VLAN interface has previously been set into the same VRF, then setting the interface into the VRF fails: # ip link set dev ens12 nomaster # ip link set dev ens12.10 master vrfgreen # ip link show dev ens12.10 39: ens12.10@ens12: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue master vrfgreen state UP mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000 link/ether 52:54:00:4c:a0:45 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff # ip link set dev ens12 master vrfgreen RTNETLINK answers: File exists The workaround is to move the VLAN interface back into the default VRF beforehand, but it has to be shut first so as to avoid the risk of traffic leaking from the VRF. This fix avoids needing this workaround. Signed-off-by: Mike Manning <mmanning@att.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

The IPS_NAT_MASK check in 4.12 replaced previous check for nfct_nat() which was needed to fix a crash in 2.6.36-rc, see commit 7bcbf81a ("ipvs: avoid oops for passive FTP"). But as IPVS does not set the IPS_SRC_NAT and IPS_DST_NAT bits, checking for IPS_NAT_MASK prevents PASV response to be properly mangled and blocks the transfer. Remove the check as it is not needed after 3.12 commit 41d73ec0 ("netfilter: nf_conntrack: make sequence number adjustments usuable without NAT") which changes nfct_nat() with nfct_seqadj() and especially after 3.13 commit b25adce1 ("ipvs: correct usage/allocation of seqadj ext in ipvs").

One of the basic construct in the device is a port-VLAN pair, which can be bound to a FID or a RIF in order to direct packets to the bridge or the router, respectively. Since not all the netdevs are configured with a VLAN (e.g., sw1p1 vs. sw1p1.10), VID 1 is used to represent these and thus this VID can be used by both upper devices of mlxsw ports and by the driver itself. However, this VID is not reference counted and therefore might be freed prematurely, which can result in various WARNINGs. For example: $ ip link add name br0 type bridge vlan_filtering 1 $ teamd -t team0 -d -c '{"runner": {"name": "lacp"}}' $ ip link set dev team0 master br0 $ ip link set dev enp1s0np1 master team0 $ ip address add 192.0.2.1/24 dev enp1s0np1 The enslavement to team0 will fail because team0 already has an upper and thus vlan_vids_del_by_dev() will be executed as part of team's error path which will delete VID 1 from enp1s0np1 (added by br0 as PVID). The WARNING will be generated when the driver will realize it can't find VID 1 on the port and bind it to a RIF. Fix this by adding a reference count to the VLAN entries on the port, in a similar fashion to the reference counting used by the corresponding 'vlan_vid_info' structure in the 8021q driver.

When multicast snooping is enabled, the Linux bridge resorts to flooding unregistered multicast packets to all ports only in case it did not detect a querier in the network. The above condition is not reflected to underlying drivers, which is especially problematic in IPv6 environments, as multicast snooping is enabled by default and since neighbour solicitation packets might be treated as unregistered multicast packets in case there is no corresponding MDB entry. Until the Linux bridge reflects its querier state to underlying drivers, simply treat unregistered multicast packets as broadcast and allow them to reach their destination.

I have replaced it with the only working copy I was able to find. n.b. there is also a copy available at: http://citeseerx.ist.psu.edu/viewdoc/download?doi=10.1.1.296.6350&rep=rep1&type=pdf However, this seems to only be a *cached* version, so I am unsure exactly how reliable that link can be expected to remain over time and have decided against using that one.

For tests that are using the maximal number of BPF instruction, each run takes 20 usec. Looping 10,000 times on them totals 200 ms, which is bad when the loop is not preemptible. test_bpf: #264 BPF_MAXINSNS: Call heavy transformations jited:1 19248 18548 PASS test_bpf: #269 BPF_MAXINSNS: ld_abs+get_processor_id jited:1 20896 PASS Lets divide by ten the number of iterations, so that max latency is 20ms. We could use need_resched() to break the loop earlier if we believe 20 ms is too much. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: Daniel Borkmann <daniel@iogearbox.net>

When the connection is reset, there is no point in keeping the packets on the write queue until the connection is closed. RFC 793 (page 70) and RFC 793-bis (page 64) both suggest purging the write queue upon RST: https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-tcpm-rfc793bis-07 Moreover, this is essential for a correct MSG_ZEROCOPY implementation, because userspace cannot call close(fd) before receiving zerocopy signals even when the connection is reset.

Yuchung Cheng says: ==================== tcp: revert a F-RTO extension due to broken middle-boxes This patch series reverts a (non-standard) TCP F-RTO extension that aimed to detect more spurious timeouts. Unfortunately it could result in poor performance due to broken middle-boxes that modify TCP packets. E.g. https://www.spinics.net/lists/netdev/msg484154.html We believe the best and simplest solution is to just revert the change. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

This reverts commit 89fe18e4. While the patch could detect more spurious timeouts, it could cause poor TCP performance on broken middle-boxes that modifies TCP packets (e.g. receive window, SACK options). Since the performance gain is much smaller compared to the potential loss. The best solution is to fully revert the change.

Julian Wiedmann says: ==================== s390/qeth: fixes 2018-02-27 please apply some more qeth patches for -net and stable. One patch fixes a performance bug in the TSO path. Then there's several more fixes for IP management on L3 devices - including a revert, so that the subsequent fix cleanly applies to earlier kernels. The final patch takes care of a race in the control IO code that causes qeth to miss the cmd response, and subsequently trigger device recovery. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

If multiple IPA commands are build & sent out concurrently, fill_ipacmd_header() may assign a seqno value to a command that's different from what send_control_data() later assigns to this command's reply. This is due to other commands passing through send_control_data(), and incrementing card->seqno.ipa along the way. So one IPA command has no reply that's waiting for its seqno, while some other IPA command has multiple reply objects waiting for it. Only one of those waiting replies wins, and the other(s) times out and triggers a recovery via send_ipa_cmd(). Fix this by making sure that the same seqno value is assigned to a command and its reply object. Do so immediately before submitting the command & while holding the irq_pending "lock", to produce nicely ascending seqnos. As a side effect, *all* IPA commands now use a reply object that's waiting for its actual seqno. Previously, early IPA commands that were submitted while the card was still DOWN used the "catch-all" IDX seqno. Signed-off-by: Julian Wiedmann <jwi@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Current code ("qeth_l3_ip_from_hash()") matches a queried address object against objects in the IP table by IP address, Mask/Prefix Length and MAC address ("qeth_l3_ipaddrs_is_equal()"). But what callers actually require is either a) "is this IP address registered" (ie. match by IP address only), before adding a new address. b) or "is this address object registered" (ie. match all relevant attributes), before deleting an address. Right now 1. the ADD path is too strict in its lookup, and eg. doesn't detect conflicts between an existing NORMAL address and a new VIPA address (because the NORMAL address will have mask != 0, while VIPA has a mask == 0), 2. the DELETE path is not strict enough, and eg. allows del_rxip() to delete a VIPA address as long as the IP address matches. Fix all this by adding helpers (_addr_match_ip() and _addr_match_all()) that do the appropriate checking. Note that the ADD path for NORMAL addresses is special, as qeth keeps track of how many times such an address is in use (and there is no immediate way of returning errors to the caller). So when a requested NORMAL address _fully_ matches an existing one, it's not considered a conflict and we merely increment the refcount.

This reverts commit cb816192. The issue this attempted to fix never actually occurs. l3_add_rxip() checks (via l3_ip_from_hash()) if the requested address was previously added to the card. If so, it returns -EEXIST and doesn't call l3_add_ip(). As a result, the "address exists" path in l3_add_ip() is never taken for rxip addresses, and this patch had no effect.

Registering an IPv4 address with the HW takes quite a while, so we temporarily drop the ip_htable lock. Any concurrent add/remove of the same IP adjusts the IP's use count, and (on remove) is then blocked by addr->in_progress. After the register call has completed, we check the use count for concurrently attempted add/remove calls - and possibly straight-away deregister the IP again. This happens via l3_delete_ip(), which 1) looks up the queried IP in the htable (getting a reference to the *same* queried object), 2) deregisters the IP from the HW, and 3) frees the IP object. The caller in l3_add_ip() then does a second free on the same object. For this case, skip all the extra checks and lookups in l3_delete_ip() and just deregister & free the IP object ourselves.
