Pull networking updates from David Miller: "Here is a pile of bug fixes that accumulated while I was in Europe" 1) In fixing kernel leaks to userspace during copying of socket addresses, we broke a case that used to work, namely the user providing a buffer larger than the in-kernel generic socket address structure. This broke Ruby amongst other things. Fix from Dan Carpenter. 2) Fix regression added by byte queue limit support in 8139cp driver, from Yang Yingliang. 3) The addition of MSG_SENDPAGE_NOTLAST buggered up a few sendpage implementations, they should just treat it the same as MSG_MORE. Fix from Richard Weinberger and Shawn Landden. 4) Handle icmpv4 errors received on ipv6 SIT tunnels correctly, from Oussama Ghorbel. In particular we should send an ICMPv6 unreachable in such situations. 5) Fix some regressions in the recent genetlink fixes, in particular get the pmcraid driver to use the new safer interfaces correctly. From Johannes Berg. 6) macvtap was converted to use a per-cpu set of statistics, but some code was still bumping tx_dropped elsewhere. From Jason Wang. 7) Fix build failure of xen-netback due to missing include on some architectures, from Andy Whitecroft. 8) macvtap double counts received packets in statistics, fix from Vlad Yasevich. 9) Fix various cases of using *_STATS_BH() when *_STATS() is more appropriate. From Eric Dumazet and Hannes Frederic Sowa. 10) Pktgen ipsec mode doesn't update the ipv4 header length and checksum properly after encapsulation. Fix from Fan Du. * git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net: (61 commits) net/mlx4_en: Remove selftest TX queues empty condition {pktgen, xfrm} Update IPv4 header total len and checksum after tranformation virtio_net: make all RX paths handle erors consistently virtio_net: fix error handling for mergeable buffers virtio_net: Fixed a trivial typo (fitler --> filter) netem: fix gemodel loss generator netem: fix loss 4 state model netem: missing break in ge loss generator net/hsr: Support iproute print_opt ('ip -details ...') net/hsr: Very small fix of comment style.

The pipe code was trying (and failing) to be very careful about freeing the pipe info only after the last access, with a pattern like: spin_lock(&inode->i_lock); if (!--pipe->files) { inode->i_pipe = NULL; kill = 1; } spin_unlock(&inode->i_lock); __pipe_unlock(pipe); if (kill) free_pipe_info(pipe); where the final freeing is done last. HOWEVER. The above is actually broken, because while the freeing is done at the end, if we have two racing processes releasing the pipe inode info, the one that *doesn't* free it will decrement the ->files count, and unlock the inode i_lock, but then still use the "pipe_inode_info" afterwards when it does the "__pipe_unlock(pipe)". This is *very* hard to trigger in practice, since the race window is very small, and adding debug options seems to just hide it by slowing things down. Simon originally reported this way back in July as an Oops in kmem_cache_allocate due to a single bit corruption (due to the final "spin_unlock(pipe->mutex.wait_lock)" incrementing a field in a different allocation that had re-used the free'd pipe-info), it's taken this long to figure out. Since the 'pipe->files' accesses aren't even protected by the pipe lock (we very much use the inode lock for that), the simple solution is to just drop the pipe lock early. And since there were two users of this pattern, create a helper function for it. Introduced commit ba5bb147 ("pipe: take allocation and freeing of pipe_inode_info out of ->i_mutex").

commit a553e4a6 ("[PKTGEN]: IPSEC support") tried to support IPsec ESP transport transformation for pktgen, but acctually this doesn't work at all for two reasons(The orignal transformed packet has bad IPv4 checksum value, as well as wrong auth value, reported by wireshark) - After transpormation, IPv4 header total length needs update, because encrypted payload's length is NOT same as that of plain text. - After transformation, IPv4 checksum needs re-caculate because of payload has been changed. With this patch, armmed pktgen with below cofiguration, Wireshark is able to decrypted ESP packet generated by pktgen without any IPv4 checksum error or auth value error. pgset "flag IPSEC" pgset "flows 1" Signed-off-by: Fan Du <fan.du@windriver.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Eric Dumazet noticed that if we encounter an error when processing a mergeable buffer, we don't dequeue all of the buffers from this packet, the result is almost sure to be loss of networking. Jason Wang noticed that we also leak a page and that we don't decrement the rq buf count, so we won't repost buffers (a resource leak). Fix both issues.

Copying a function with memcpy() and then trying to execute the result isn't trivially portable to Thumb.

After "ARM: signal: sigreturn_codes should be endian neutral to work in BE8" commit, thumb only platforms, like armv7m, fails to compile sigreturn_codes.S. The reason is that for such arch values '.arm' directive and arm opcodes are not allowed. Fix conditionally enables arm opcodes only if no CONFIG_CPU_THUMBONLY defined and it uses .org instructions to keep sigreturn_codes layout.

Jeff Kirsher says: ==================== Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates This series contains updates to igb, e1000 and ixgbe. Akeem provides a igb fix where WOL was being reported as supported on some ethernet devices which did not have that capability. Yanjun provides a fix for e1000 which is similar to a previous fix for e1000e commit bb9e44d0 ("e1000e: prevent oops when adapter is being closed and reset simultaneously"), where the same issue was observed on the older e1000 cards. Vladimir Davydov provides 2 e1000 fixes. The first fixes a lockdep warning e1000_down() tries to synchronously cancel e1000 auxiliary works (reset_task, watchdog_task, phy_info_task and fifo_stall_task) which take adapter->mutex in their handlers. The second patch is to fix a possible race condition where reset_task() would be running after adapter down. John provides 2 fixes for ixgbe. First turns ixgbe_fwd_ring_down to static and the second disables NETIF_F_HW_L2FW_DOFFLOAD by default because it allows upper layer net devices to use queues in the hardware to directly submit and receive skbs. Mark Rustad provides a single patch for ixgbe to make ixgbe_identify_qsfp_module_generic static to resolve compile warnings. v2: Drop igb patch "igb: Update queue reinit function to call dev_close when init of queues fails" from Carolyn, so that the solution can be re-worked based on feedback from David Miller. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

NETIF_F_HW_L2FW_DOFFLOAD allows upper layer net devices such as macvlan to use queues in the hardware to directly submit and receive skbs. This creates a subtle change in the datapath though. One change being the skb may no longer use the root devices qdisc. Because users may not expect this we can't enable the feature by default unless the hardware can offload all the software functionality above it.

On e1000_down(), we should ensure every asynchronous work is canceled before proceeding. Since the watchdog_task can schedule other works apart from itself, it should be stopped first, but currently it is stopped after the reset_task. This can result in the following race leading to the reset_task running after the module unload: e1000_down_and_stop(): e1000_watchdog(): ---------------------- ----------------- cancel_work_sync(reset_task) schedule_work(reset_task) cancel_delayed_work_sync(watchdog_task) The patch moves cancel_delayed_work_sync(watchdog_task) at the beginning of e1000_down_and_stop() thus ensuring the race is impossible.

So the question is what does adapter->mutex protect there? The adapter->mutex was introduced by commit 0ef4ee ("e1000: convert to private mutex from rtnl") as a replacement for rtnl_lock() taken in the asynchronous handlers. It targeted on fixing a similar lockdep warning issued when e1000_down() was called under rtnl_lock(), and it fixed it, but unfortunately it introduced the lockdep warning described above. Anyway, that said the source of this bug is that the asynchronous works were made to take rtnl_lock() some time ago, so let's look deeper and find why it was added there. The rtnl_lock() was added to asynchronous handlers by commit 338c15 ("e1000: fix occasional panic on unload") in order to prevent asynchronous handlers from execution after the module is unloaded (e1000_down() is called) as it follows from the comment to the commit: > Net drivers in general have an issue where timers fired > by mod_timer or work threads with schedule_work are running > outside of the rtnl_lock. > > With no other lock protection these routines are vulnerable > to races with driver unload or reset paths. > > The longer term solution to this might be a redesign with > safer locks being taken in the driver to guarantee no > reentrance, but for now a safe and effective fix is > to take the rtnl_lock in these routines. I'm not sure if this locking scheme fixed the problem or just made it unlikely, although I incline to the latter. Anyway, this was long time ago when e1000 auxiliary works were implemented as timers scheduling real work handlers in their routines. The e1000_down() function only canceled the timers, but left the real handlers running if they were running, which could result in work execution after module unload. Today, the e1000 driver uses sane delayed works instead of the pair timer+work to implement its delayed asynchronous handlers, and the e1000_down() synchronously cancels all the works so that the problem that commit 338c15 tried to cope with disappeared, and we don't need any locks in the handlers any more. Moreover, any locking there can potentially result in a deadlock. So, this patch reverts commits 0ef4ee and 338c15.

This change is based on a similar change made to e1000e support in commit bb9e44d0 ("e1000e: prevent oops when adapter is being closed and reset simultaneously"). The same issue has also been observed on the older e1000 cards. Here, we have increased the RESET_COUNT value to 50 because there are too many accesses to e1000 nic on stress tests to e1000 nic, it is not enough to set RESET_COUT 25. Experimentation has shown that it is enough to set RESET_COUNT 50.

This patch stores the address of the 'template_fmt_copy' variable in a new variable, called 'template_fmt_ptr', so that the latter is passed as an argument of strsep() instead of the former. This modification is needed in order to correctly free the memory area referenced by 'template_fmt_copy' (strsep() modifies the pointer of the passed string).

In commit c9e90429 ("ipv4: fix possible seqlock deadlock") I left another places where IP_INC_STATS_BH() were improperly used. udp_sendmsg(), ping_v4_sendmsg() and tcp_v4_connect() are called from process context, not from softirq context. This was detected by lockdep seqlock support.

When user linkup is enabled and user sets linkup of individual port, we need to recompute linkup (carrier) of master interface so the change is reflected. Fix this by calling __team_carrier_check() which does the needed work. Please apply to all stable kernels as well. Thanks.
