We never want multicast MAC addresses in the Distributed ARP Table, so it's best to completely ignore ARP packets containing them where we expect unicast addresses.

There are more types of IP addresses that may appear in ARP packets that we don't want to process. While some of these should never appear in sane ARP packets, a 0.0.0.0 source is used for duplicate address detection and thus seen quite often.

John W. Linville says: ==================== This is a batch of fixes intende for the 3.8 stream. Regarding the iwlwifi bits, Johannes says this: "Please pull to get a single fix from Emmanuel for a bug I introduced due to misunderstanding the code." Regarding the mac80211 bits, Johannes says this: "I have a few small fixes for you: * some mesh frames would cause encryption warnings -- fixes from Bob * scanning would pretty much break an association if we transmitted anything to the AP while scanning -- fix from Stanislaw * mode injection was broken by channel contexts -- fix from Felix * FT roaming was broken: hardware crypto would get disabled by it" Along with that, a handful of other fixes confined to specific drivers. Avinash Patil fixes a typo in a NULL check in mwifiex. Larry Finger fixes a build warning in rtlwifi. Seems safe... Stanislaw Gruszka fixes iwlegacy to prevent microcode errors when switching from IBSS mode to STA mode. Felix Fietkau provides a trio of ath9k fixes related to proper tuning. Please let me know if there are problems! ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Ben Greear reported crashes in ip_rcv_finish() on a stress test involving many macvlans. We tracked the bug to a dst use after free. ip_rcv_finish() was calling dst->input() and got garbage for dst->input value. It appears the bug is in loopback driver, lacking a skb_dst_force() before calling netif_rx(). As a result, a non refcounted dst, normally protected by a RCU read_lock section, was escaping this section and could be freed before the packet being processed.

Timo Teräs authored
This was introduced in commit 6dccd16b "r8169: merge with version 6.001.00 of Realtek's r8169 driver". I did not find the version 6.001.00 online, but in 6.002.00 or any later r8169 from Realtek this hunk is no longer present. Also commit 05af2142 "r8169: fix Ethernet Hangup for RTL8110SC rev d" claims to have fixed this issue otherwise. The magic compare mask of 0xfffe000 is dubious as it masks parts of the Reserved part, and parts of the VLAN tag. But this does not make much sense as the VLAN tag parts are perfectly valid there. In matter of fact this seems to be triggered with any VLAN tagged packet as RxVlanTag bit is matched. I would suspect 0xfffe0000 was intended to test reserved part only. Finally, this hunk is evil as it can cause more packets to be handled than what was NAPI quota causing net/core/dev.c: net_rx_action(): WARN_ON_ONCE(work > weight) to trigger, and mess up the NAPI state causing device to hang. As result, any system using VLANs and having high receive traffic (so that NAPI poll budget limits rtl_rx) would result in device hang.

We create new flow caches when a new flow is identified by tuntap, This may lead some issues: - userspace may produce a huge amount of short live flows to exhaust host memory - the unlimited number of flow caches may produce a long list which increase the time in the linear searching Solve this by introducing a limit of total number of flow caches.

A MAX_TAP_QUEUES(1024) queues of tuntap device is always allocated unconditionally even userspace only requires a single queue device. This is unnecessary and will lead a very high order of page allocation when has a high possibility to fail. Solving this by creating a one queue net device when userspace only use one queue and also reduce MAX_TAP_QUEUES to DEFAULT_MAX_NUM_RSS_QUEUES which can guarantee the success of the allocation.

Reverting 328d7b8a and instead adding an exception for the Sierra Wireless MC7710. commit 328d7b8a (net: cdc_mbim: send ZLP after max sized NTBs) added a workaround for an issue observed on one specific device. Concerns were raised that this workaround adds a performance penalty to all devices based on questionable, if not buggy, behaviour of a single device: "If you add ZLP for NTBs of dwNtbOutMaxSize, you are heavily affecting CPU load, increasing interrupt load by factor of 2 in high load traffic scenario and possibly decreasing throughput for all other devices which behaves correctly." "The idea of NCM was to avoid extra ZLPs. If your transfer is exactly dwNtbOutMaxSize, it's known, you can submit such request on the receiver side and you do not need any EOT indicatation, so the frametime can be used for useful data." Adding a device specific exception to prevent the workaround from affecting well behaved devices. The assumption here is that needing a ZLP is truly an *exception*. We do not yet have enough data to verify this. The generic workaround in commit 328d7b8a should be considered acceptable despite the performance penalty if the exception list becomes a maintainance hassle.

git commit 9cb3a50c (ipv4: Invalidate the socket cached route on pmtu events if possible) introduced a refcount problem. We don't get a refcount on the route if we get it from__sk_dst_get(), but we need one if we want to reuse this route because __sk_dst_set() releases the refcount of the old route. This patch adds proper refcount handling for that case. We introduce a 'new' flag to indicate that we are going to use a new route and we release the old route only if we replace it by a new one.

Steffen Klassert says: ==================== 1) The transport header did not point to the right place after esp/ah processing on tunnel mode in the receive path. As a result, the ECN field of the inner header was not set correctly, fixes from Li RongQing. 2) We did a null check too late in one of the xfrm_replay advance functions. This can lead to a division by zero, fix from Nickolai Zeldovich. 3) The size calculation of the hash table missed the muiltplication with the actual struct size when the hash table is freed. We might call the wrong free function, fix from Michal Kubecek. 4) On IPsec pmtu events we can't access the transport headers of the original packet, so force a relookup for all routes to notify about the pmtu event. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

Commit 6a328d8c changed the update logic for the socket but it does not update the SCM_RIGHTS update as well. This patch is based on the net_prio fix commit 48a87cc2 net: netprio: fd passed in SCM_RIGHTS datagram not set correctly A socket fd passed in a SCM_RIGHTS datagram was not getting updated with the new tasks cgrp prioidx. This leaves IO on the socket tagged with the old tasks priority. To fix this add a check in the scm recvmsg path to update the sock cgrp prioidx with the new tasks value.

We normally avoid sending ZLPs by padding NTBs with a zero byte if the NTB is shorter than dwNtbOutMaxSize, resulting in a short USB packet instead of a ZLP. But in the case where the NTB length is exactly dwNtbOutMaxSize and this is an exact multiplum of wMaxPacketSize, then we must send a ZLP. This fixes an issue seen on a Sierra Wireless MC7710 device where the transmission would fail whenever we ended up padding the NTBs to max size.

Adding support for the MBIM mode in some Sierra Wireless devices. Some Sierra Wireless firmwares support CDC MBIM but have no CDC Union funtional descriptor. This violates the MBIM specification, but we can easily work around the bug by looking at the Interface Association Descriptor instead. This is most likely what Windows uses too, which explains how the firmware bug has gone unnoticed until now. This change will not affect any currently supported device conforming to the NCM or MBIM specifications, as they must have the CDC Union descriptor.

The route lookup in ipv4_sk_update_pmtu() might return a route different from the route we cached at the socket. This is because standart routes are per cpu, so each cpu has it's own struct rtable. This means that we do not invalidate the socket cached route if the NET_RX_SOFTIRQ is not served by the same cpu that the sending socket uses. As a result, the cached route reused until we disconnect. With this patch we invalidate the socket cached route if possible. If the socket is owened by the user, we can't update the cached route directly. A followup patch will implement socket release callback functions for datagram sockets to handle this case.
