sysfs is a core piece of ifrastructure that many people use and few people have all of the rules in their head on how to use it correctly. Add warnings for people using tagged directories improperly to that any misuses can be caught and diagnosed quickly. A single inexpensive test in sysfs_find_dirent is almost sufficient to catch all possible misuses. An additional warning is needed in sysfs_add_dirent so that we actually fail when attempting to add an untagged dirent in a tagged directory. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

Now that /sys/class/net/bonding_masters is implemented as a tagged sysfs file we can remove support for untagged files in tagged directories. This change removes any ambiguity of what a NULL namespace value means. A NULL namespace parameter after this patch means that we are talking about an untagged sysfs dirent. This makes the sysfs code much less prone to mistakes when during maintenance. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

This fixes a network namespace misfeature that bonding_masters looked at current instead of the remembering the context where in which /sys/class/net/bonding_masters was opened in to see which network namespace to act upon. This removes the need for sysfs to handle tagged directories with untagged members allowing for a conceptually simpler sysfs implementation. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

Looking up files in sysfs is hard to understand and analyize because we currently allow placing untagged files in tagged directories. In the implementation of that we have two subtly different meanings of NULL. NULL meaning there is no tag on a directory entry and NULL meaning we don't care which namespace the lookup is performed for. This multiple uses of NULL have resulted in subtle bugs (since fixed) in the code. Currently it is only the bonding driver that needs to have an untagged file in a tagged directory. To untagle this mess I am adding support for tagged files to sysfs. Modifying the bonding driver to implement bonding_masters as a tagged file. Registering bonding_masters once for each network namespace. Then I am removing support for untagged entries in tagged sysfs directories. Resulting in code that is much easier to reason about.

The port shouldn't be enabled unless its current MUX state is DISTRIBUTING which is correctly handled by ad_mux_machine(), otherwise the packet sent can be lost because the other end may not be ready. The issue happens on every port initialization, but as the ports are expected to move quickly to DISTRIBUTING, it doesn't cause much problem. However, it does cause constant packet loss if the other peer has the port configured to stay in STANDBY (i.e. SYNC set to OFF). Signed-off-by: Flavio Leitner <fbl@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

This patch moves the rcu_barrier from rollback_registered_many (inside the rtnl_lock) into netdev_run_todo (just outside the rtnl_lock). This allows us to gain the full benefit of sychronize_net calling synchronize_rcu_expedited when the rtnl_lock is held. The rcu_barrier in rollback_registered_many was originally a synchronize_net but was promoted to be a rcu_barrier() when it was found that people were unnecessarily hitting the 250ms wait in netdev_wait_allrefs(). Changing the rcu_barrier back to a synchronize_net is therefore safe. Since we only care about waiting for the rcu callbacks before we get to netdev_wait_allrefs() it is also safe to move the wait into netdev_run_todo. This was tested by creating and destroying 1000 tap devices and observing /proc/lock_stat. /proc/lock_stat reports this change reduces the hold times of the rtnl_lock by a factor of 10. There was no observable difference in the amount of time it takes to destroy a network device. Signed-off-by: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@xmission.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

The Vitesse driver was using the RGMII_ID interface type to determine if skew was necessary. However, we want to move away from using that interface type, as it's really a property of the board's PHY connection. However, some boards depend on it, so we want to support it, while allowing new boards to use the more flexible "fixups" approach. To do this, we extract the code which adds skew into its own function, and call that function when RGMII_ID has been selected. Another side-effect of this change is that if your PHY has skew set already, it doesn't clear it. This way, the fixup code can modify the register without config_init then clearing it.

skb_recycle_check resets the skb if it's eligible for recycling. However, there are times when a driver might want to optionally manipulate the skb data with the skb before resetting the skb, but after it has determined eligibility. We do this by splitting the eligibility check from the skb reset, creating two inline functions to accomplish that task.

Under stressed conditions a race could happen when del_timer_sync() was called from softirq context at the same time when mod_timer_pending() for the same timer was called from the workqueue. This leaded to a state mismatch in the CAIF HSI driver and following unexpected link wakeup procedure. The fix puts del_timer_sync() and mod_timer_pending() calls under a spin lock to protect against the race condition.

Calling icmpv6_send() on a local message size error leads to an incorrect update of the path mtu. So use xfrm6_local_rxpmtu() to notify about the pmtu if the IPV6_DONTFRAG socket option is set on an udp or raw socket, according RFC 3542 and use ipv6_local_error() otherwise.

ip6_append_data() builds packets based on the mtu from dst_mtu(rt->dst.path). On IPsec the effective mtu is lower because we need to add the protocol headers and trailers later when we do the IPsec transformations. So after the IPsec transformations the packet might be too big, which leads to a slowpath fragmentation then. This patch fixes this by building the packets based on the lower IPsec mtu from dst_mtu(&rt->dst) and adapts the exthdr handling to this.

The following configuration used to work as I expected. At least we could use the fcoe interfaces to do MPIO and the bond0 iface to do load balancing or failover. ---eth2.228-fcoe | eth2 -----| | |---- bond0 | eth3 -----| | ---eth3.228-fcoe This worked because of a change we added to allow inactive slaves to rx 'exact' matches. This functionality was kept intact with the rx_handler mechanism. However now the vlan interface attached to the active slave never receives traffic because the bonding rx_handler updates the skb->dev and goto's another_round. Previously, the vlan_do_receive() logic was called before the bonding rx_handler. Now by the time vlan_do_receive calls vlan_find_dev() the skb->dev is set to bond0 and it is clear no vlan is attached to this iface. The vlan lookup fails. This patch moves the VLAN check above the rx_handler. A VLAN tagged frame is now routed to the eth2.228-fcoe iface in the above schematic. Untagged frames continue to the bond0 as normal. This case also remains intact, eth2 --> bond0 --> vlan.228 Here the skb is VLAN tagged but the vlan lookup fails on eth2 causing the bonding rx_handler to be called. On the second pass the vlan lookup is on the bond0 iface and completes as expected. Putting a VLAN.228 on both the bond0 and eth2 device will result in eth2.228 receiving the skb. I don't think this is completely unexpected and was the result prior to the rx_handler result. Note, the same setup is also used for other storage traffic that MPIO is used with eg. iSCSI and similar setups can be contrived without storage protocols.
