Eric Dumazet says: ==================== netpoll: avoid capture effects for NAPI drivers As diagnosed by Song Liu, ndo_poll_controller() can be very dangerous on loaded hosts, since the cpu calling ndo_poll_controller() might steal all NAPI contexts (for all RX/TX queues of the NIC). This capture, showing one ksoftirqd eating all cycles can last for unlimited amount of time, since one cpu is generally not able to drain all the queues under load. It seems that all networking drivers that do use NAPI for their TX completions, should not provide a ndo_poll_controller() : Most NAPI drivers have netpoll support already handled in core networking stack, since netpoll_poll_dev() uses poll_napi(dev) to iterate through registered NAPI contexts for a device. This patch series take care of the first round, we will handle other drivers in future rounds. ==================== Signed-off-by:David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

This patch allows netpoll_poll_dev() to process NAPI contexts even for drivers not providing ndo_poll_controller(), allowing for following patches in NAPI drivers. Also we export netpoll_poll_dev() so that it can be called by bonding/team drivers in following patches. Reported-by:

The backend handling for /proc/net/if_inet6 in addrconf.c doesn't properly handle starting/stopping the iteration. The problem is that at some point during the iteration, an overflow is detected and the process is subsequently stopped. The item being shown via seq_printf() when the overflow occurs is not actually shown, though. When start() is subsequently called to resume iterating, it returns the next item, and thus the item that was being processed when the overflow occurred never gets printed. Alter the meaning of the private data member "offset". Currently, when it is not 0 (which only happens at the very beginning), "offset" represents the next hlist item to be printed. After this change, "offset" always represents the current item. This is also consistent with the private data member "bucket", which represents the current bucket, and also the use of "pos" as defined in seq_file.txt: The pos passed to start() will always be either zero, or the most recent pos used in the previous session.

netlbl_unlabel_addrinfo_get() assumes that if it finds the NLBL_UNLABEL_A_IPV4ADDR attribute, it must also have the NLBL_UNLABEL_A_IPV4MASK attribute as well. However, this is not necessarily the case as the current checks in netlbl_unlabel_staticadd() and friends are not sufficent to enforce this. If passed a netlink message with NLBL_UNLABEL_A_IPV4ADDR, NLBL_UNLABEL_A_IPV6ADDR, and NLBL_UNLABEL_A_IPV6MASK attributes, these functions will all call netlbl_unlabel_addrinfo_get() which will then attempt dereference NULL when fetching the non-existent NLBL_UNLABEL_A_IPV4MASK attribute: Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 0 Process unlab (pid: 31762, stack limit = 0xffffff80502d8000) Call trace: netlbl_unlabel_addrinfo_get+0x44/0xd8 netlbl_unlabel_staticremovedef+0x98/0xe0 genl_rcv_msg+0x354/0x388 netlink_rcv_skb+0xac/0x118 genl_rcv+0x34/0x48 netlink_unicast+0x158/0x1f0 netlink_sendmsg+0x32c/0x338 sock_sendmsg+0x44/0x60 ___sys_sendmsg+0x1d0/0x2a8 __sys_sendmsg+0x64/0xb4 SyS_sendmsg+0x34/0x4c el0_svc_naked+0x34/0x38 Code: 51001149 7100113f 540000a0 f9401508 (79400108) ---[ end trace f6438a488e737143 ]--- Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception Signed-off-by:

When extracting frames from the Ocelot switch, the frame check sequence (FCS) is present at the end of the data extracted. The FCS was put into the sk buffer which introduced some issues (as length related ones), as the FCS shouldn't be part of an Rx sk buffer.

When processing pmtu update from an icmp packet, it calls .update_pmtu with sk instead of skb in sctp_transport_update_pmtu. However for sctp, the daddr in the transport might be different from inet_sock->inet_daddr or sk->sk_v6_daddr, which is used to update or create the route cache. The incorrect daddr will cause a different route cache created for the path. So before calling .update_pmtu, inet_sock->inet_daddr/sk->sk_v6_daddr should be updated with the daddr in the transport, and update it back after it's done. The issue has existed since route exceptions introduction. Fixes: 4895c771 ("ipv4: Add FIB nexthop exceptions.") Reported-by: ian.periam@dialogic.com Signed-off-by:

MC-aware mode was introduced to mlxsw in commit 7b819530 ("mlxsw: spectrum: Configure MC-aware mode on mlxsw ports") and fixed up later in commit 3a3539cd ("mlxsw: spectrum_buffers: Set up a dedicated pool for BUM traffic").

In certain multi-function switch dependent modes, firmware adds vlan tag 0 to the untagged frames. This leads to double tagging for the traffic if the dcbx is enabled, which is not the desired behavior. To avoid this, driver needs to set "dcb_dont_add_vlan0" flag.

In multi-function mode, driver receives the stag value (outer vlan) for a PF from management FW (MFW). If the stag value is negotiated prior to the driver load, then the stag is not notified to the driver and hence driver will have the invalid stag value. The fix is to request the MFW for STAG value during the driver load time. Fixes: cac6f691 ("qed: Add support for Unified Fabric Port") Signed-off-by:
