This was found with a manual audit and I don't have a reproducer. We limit ->calling_len and ->called_len when we get them from copy_from_user() in x25_ioctl() so when they come from skb->data then we should cap them there as well.

"tty->name" and "name" are a 64 character buffers. My static checker complains because we add the "cf" on the front so it look like we are copying a 66 character string into a 64 character buffer. Also if the name is larger than IFNAMSIZ (16) it triggers a BUG_ON() inside the call to alloc_netdev(). This is all under CAP_SYS_ADMIN so it's not a security fix, it just adds a little robustness.

Currently we're linking upper devices to lower ones, which results in upside-down relationship: upper devices seeing lower devices via its upper lists.

We can drop the use of bond->lock for mutual exclusion in bond_3ad_update_lacp_rate and use RTNL in the sysfs store function instead. This way we'll prevent races with mode change and interface up/down as well as simplify update_lacp_rate by removing the check for port->slave because it'll always be initialized (done while enslaving with RTNL). This change will also help in the future removal of reader bond->lock from bond_enslave. Signed-off-by: Nikolay Aleksandrov <nikolay@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

This patch aims to remove a use of the bond->lock for mutual exclusion which will later allow easier migration to RCU of the users of this functionality. We use RTNL as a synchronizing mechanism since it's always held when send_peer_notif is set, and when it is decremented from the notifier function. We can also drop some locking, and fix the leakage of the send_peer_notif counter. Signed-off-by: Nikolay Aleksandrov <nikolay@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

As Michael point out, We used to limit the max pending DMAs to get better cache utilization. But it was not done correctly since it was one done when there's no new buffers submitted from guest. Guest can easily exceeds the limitation by keeping sending packets. So this patch moves the check into main loop. Tests shows about 5%-10% improvement on per cpu throughput for guest tx.

We used to poll vhost queue before making DMA is done, this is racy if vhost thread were waked up before marking DMA is done which can result the signal to be missed.

Currently, even if the packet length is smaller than VHOST_GOODCOPY_LEN, if upend_idx != done_idx we still set zcopy_used to true and rollback this choice later.

We tend to batch the used adding and signaling in vhost_zerocopy_callback() which may result more than 100 used buffers to be updated in vhost_zerocopy_signal_used() in some cases. So switch to use vhost_add_used_and_signal_n() to avoid multiple calls to vhost_add_used_and_signal(). Which means much less times of used index updating and memory barriers. 2% performance improvement were seen on netperf TCP_RR test.

Fix the amount of sent bytes reported to BQL by reporting the number of bytes on wire in the xmit routine, and recording that value for each skb in order to be correctly confirmed on Tx confirmation cleanup. Reporting skb->len to BQL just before exiting xmit is not correct due to possible insertions of TOE block and alignment bytes in the skb->data, which are being stripped off by the controller before transmission on wire. This led to mismatch of (incorrectly) reported bytes to BQL b/w xmit and Tx confirmation, resulting in Tx timeout firing, for the h/w tx timestamping acceleration case. There's no easy way to obtain the number of bytes on wire in the Tx confirmation routine, so skb->cb is used to convey that information from xmit to Tx confirmation, for now (as proposed by Eric). Revived the currently unused GFAR_CB() construct for that purpose. Signed-off-by: Claudiu Manoil <claudiu.manoil@freescale.com> Cc: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

When my 'ifup eth' script was fired multiple times and ran concurrent on my laptop, for some obscure /etc scripting reason, it was revealed that the store_enabled() function in netconsole doesn't handle it nicely, as recorded by the Oops below (a syslog paste, but not mangled too much to prevent from discerning the traceback). On Linux 3.10.4, this patch seeks to remedy the problem, and it has been running stable on my laptop for a few days.
