skb->sk socket can be of AF_INET or AF_INET6 address family. Thus we always have to make sure we a referring to the correct interpretation of skb->sk. We only depend on header defines to query the mtu, so we don't introduce a new dependency to ipv6 by this change. Cc: Steffen Klassert <steffen.klassert@secunet.com> Signed-off-by:

In xfrm4 and xfrm6 we need to take care about sockets of the other address family. This could happen because a 6in4 or 4in6 tunnel could get protected by ipsec. Because we don't want to have a run-time dependency on ipv6 when only using ipv4 xfrm we have to embed a pointer to the correct local_error function in xfrm_state_afinet and look it up when returning an error depending on the socket address family. Thanks to vi0ss for the great bug report: <https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=58691> v2: a) fix two more unsafe interpretations of skb->sk as ipv6 socket (xfrm6_local_dontfrag and __xfrm6_output) v3: a) add an EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(xfrm_local_error) to fix a link error when building ipv6 as a module (thanks to Steffen Klassert) Reported-by: <vi0oss@gmail.com> Cc: Steffen Klassert <steffen.klassert@secunet.com> Signed-off-by:

Since we set "len = total_len" in the beginning of tun_get_user(), so we should compare the new len with 0, instead of total_len, or the if statement always returns false. Signed-off-by:

Fix the iproute2 command `bridge vlan show`, after switching from rtgenmsg to ifinfomsg. Let's start with a little history: Feb 20: Vlad Yasevich got his VLAN-aware bridge patchset included in the 3.9 merge window. In the kernel commit 6cbdceeb, he added attribute support to bridge GETLINK requests sent with rtgenmsg. Mar 6th: Vlad got this iproute2 reference implementation of the bridge vlan netlink interface accepted (iproute2 9eff0e5c) Apr 25th: iproute2 switched from using rtgenmsg to ifinfomsg (63338dca) http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/239602/ http://marc.info/?t=136680900700007 Apr 28th: Linus released 3.9 Apr 30th: Stephen released iproute2 3.9.0 The `bridge vlan show` command haven't been working since the switch to ifinfomsg, or in a released version of iproute2. Since the kernel side only supports rtgenmsg, which iproute2 switched away from just prior to the iproute2 3.9.0 release. I haven't been able to find any documentation, about neither rtgenmsg nor ifinfomsg, and in which situation to use which, but kernel commit 88c5b5ce seams to suggest that ifinfomsg should be used. Fixing this in kernel will break compatibility, but I doubt that anybody have been using it due to this bug in the user space reference implementation, at least not without noticing this bug. That said the functionality is still fully functional in 3.9, when reversing iproute2 commit 63338dca. This could also be fixed in iproute2, but thats an ugly patch that would reintroduce rtgenmsg in iproute2, and from searching in netdev it seams like rtgenmsg usage is discouraged. I'm assuming that the only reason that Vlad implemented the kernel side to use rtgenmsg, was because iproute2 was using it at the time.

Initially I improperly set a boundary for maximum number of input packets to process on NAPI poll ("work") so it might be more than expected amount ("weight"). This was really harmless but seeing WARN_ON_ONCE on every device boot is not nice. So trivial fix ("<" instead of "<=") is here.

Using inner-id for tunnel id is not safe in some rare cases. E.g. packets coming from multiple sources entering same tunnel can have same id. Therefore on tunnel packet receive we could have packets from two different stream but with same source and dst IP with same ip-id which could confuse ip packet reassembly.

Dmitry Kravkov says: ==================== Please consider applying the series of bnx2x fixes to net: * statistics may cause FW assert * missing fairness configuration in DCB flow * memory leak in sriov related part * Illegal PTE access * Pagefault crash in shutdown flow with cnic v1->v2 * fixed sparse error pointed by Joe Perches * added missing signed-off from Sergei Shtylyov v2->v3 * added missing signed-off from Sergei Shtylyov * fixed formatting from Sergei Shtylyov v3->v4 * patch 1/6: fixed declaration order * patch 2/6 replaced with: protect flows using set_bit constraints v4->v5 * patch 2/6: replace proprietary locking with semaphore * droped 1/6: since adds redundant code from Benjamin Poirier The following patchset contains four netfilter fixes, they are: * Fix possible invalid access and mangling of the TCPMSS option in xt_TCPMSS. This was spotted by Julian Anastasov. * Fix possible off by one access and mangling of the TCP packet in xt_TCPOPTSTRIP, also spotted by Julian Anastasov. * Fix possible information leak due to missing initialization of one padding field of several structures that are included in nfqueue and nflog netlink messages, from Dan Carpenter. * Fix TCP window tracking with Fast Open, from Yuchung Cheng. ==================== Signed-off-by: -

There might be a crash as during shutdown flow CNIC might try to access resources already freed by bnx2x. Change bnx2x_close() into dev_close() in __bnx2x_remove (shutdown flow) to guarantee CNIC is notified of the device's change of status. Signed-off-by:

When dumping generic netlink families, only the first dump call is locked with genl_lock(), which protects the list of families, and thus subsequent calls can access the data without locking, racing against family addition/removal. This can cause a crash. Fix it - the locking needs to be conditional because the first time around it's already locked. A similar bug was reported to me on an old kernel (3.4.47) but the exact scenario that happened there is no longer possible, on those kernels the first round wasn't locked either. Looking at the current code I found the race described above, which had also existed on the old kernel. Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Reported-by:

Probably this one is quite unlikely to be triggered, but it's more safe to do the call_rcu() at the end after we have dropped the reference on the asoc and freed sctp packet chunks. The reason why is because in sctp_transport_destroy_rcu() the transport is being kfree()'d, and if we're unlucky enough we could run into corrupted pointers. Probably that's more of theoretical nature, but it's safer to have this simple fix. Introduced by commit 8c98653f ("sctp: sctp_close: fix release of bindings for deferred call_rcu's"). I also did the 8c98653f regression test and it's fine that way. Signed-off-by:

Included change: - reassign pointers to data after skb reallocation to avoid kernel paging errors Signed-off-by: -
Linus Lüssing authored
There are several functions which might reallocate skb data. Currently some places keep reusing their old ethhdr pointer regardless of whether they became invalid after such a reallocation or not. This potentially leads to kernel paging errors. This patch fixes these by refetching the ethdr pointer after the potential reallocations. Signed-off-by:

Pablo Neira Ayuso says: ==================== The following patchset contains four netfilter fixes, they are: * Fix possible invalid access and mangling of the TCPMSS option in xt_TCPMSS. This was spotted by Julian Anastasov. * Fix possible off by one access and mangling of the TCP packet in xt_TCPOPTSTRIP, also spotted by Julian Anastasov. * Fix possible information leak due to missing initialization of one padding field of several structures that are included in nfqueue and nflog netlink messages, from Dan Carpenter. * Fix TCP window tracking with Fast Open, from Yuchung Cheng. ==================== Signed-off-by: -
Yuchung Cheng authored
Currently the conntrack checks if the ending sequence of a packet falls within the observed receive window. However it does so even if it has not observe any packet from the remote yet and uses an uninitialized receive window (td_maxwin). If a connection uses Fast Open to send a SYN-data packet which is dropped afterward in the network. The subsequent SYNs retransmits will all fail this check and be discarded, leading to a connection timeout. This is because the SYN retransmit does not contain data payload so end == initial sequence number (isn) + 1 sender->td_end == isn + syn_data_len receiver->td_maxwin == 0 The fix is to only apply this check after td_maxwin is initialized.

This patch fixed the condition of extend_desc for jumbo frame. There is no check routine for extend_desc in the stmmac_jumbo_frm function. Even though extend_desc is set if dma_tx is used instead of dma_etx. It causes kernel panic. Signed-off-by:

This is a regression introduced by: commit fe5c3561 Author: stephen hemminger <stephen@networkplumber.org> Date: Sat Jul 13 10:18:18 2013 -0700 vxlan: add necessary locking on device removal The problem is that vxlan_dellink(), which is called with RTNL lock held, tries to flush the workqueue synchronously, but apparently igmp_join and igmp_leave work need to hold RTNL lock too, therefore we have a soft lockup! As suggested by Stephen, probably the flush_workqueue can just be removed and let the normal refcounting work. The workqueue has a reference to device and socket, therefore the cleanups should work correctly. Suggested-by:

Fix ipgre_header() (header_ops->create) to return the correct amount of bytes pushed. Most callers of dev_hard_header() seem to care only if it was success, but af_packet.c uses it as offset to the skb to copy from userspace only once. In practice this fixes packet socket sendto()/sendmsg() to gre tunnels. Regression introduced in c5441932 ("GRE: Refactor GRE tunneling code.") Cc: Pravin B Shelar <pshelar@nicira.com> Signed-off-by:

John W. Linville says: ==================== This is a batch of fixes intended for the 3.11 queue... Regarding the mac80211 (and related) bits, Johannes says: "I have a fix from Chris for an infinite loop along with fixes from myself to prevent it entering the loop to start with (continue using disabled channels, many thanks to Chris for his debug/test help) and a workaround for broken APs that advertise a bad HT primary channel in their beacons. Additionally, a fix for another attrbuf race in mac80211 and a fix to clean up properly while P2P GO interfaces go down." Along with that... Solomon Peachy corrects a range check in cw1200 that would lead to a BUG_ON when starting AP mode. Stanislaw Gruszka provides an iwl4965 patch to power-up the device earlier (avoiding microcode errors), and another iwl4965 fix that resets the firmware after turning rfkill off (resolving a bug in the Red Hat Bugzilla).

In case a subtree did not match we currently stop backtracking and return NULL (root table from fib_lookup). This could yield in invalid routing table lookups when using subtrees. Instead continue to backtrack until a valid subtree or node is found and return this match. Also remove unneeded NULL check. Reported-by:

While investigating about strange increase of retransmit rates on hosts ~24 days after boot, Van found hystart was disabled if ca->epoch_start was 0, as following condition is true when tcp_time_stamp high order bit is set. (s32)(tcp_time_stamp - ca->epoch_start) < HZ Quoting Van : At initialization & after every loss ca->epoch_start is set to zero so I believe that the above line will turn off hystart as soon as the 2^31 bit is set in tcp_time_stamp & hystart will stay off for 24 days. I think we've observed that cubic's restart is too aggressive without hystart so this might account for the higher drop rate we observe. Diagnosed-by:

commit 17a6e9f1 ("tcp_cubic: fix clock dependency") added an overflow error in bictcp_update() in following code : /* change the unit from HZ to bictcp_HZ */ t = ((tcp_time_stamp + msecs_to_jiffies(ca->delay_min>>3) - ca->epoch_start) << BICTCP_HZ) / HZ; Because msecs_to_jiffies() being unsigned long, compiler does implicit type promotion. We really want to constrain (tcp_time_stamp - ca->epoch_start) to a signed 32bit value, or else 't' has unexpected high values. This bugs triggers an increase of retransmit rates ~24 days after boot [1], as the high order bit of tcp_time_stamp flips. [1] for hosts with HZ=1000 Big thanks to Van Jacobson for spotting this problem. Diagnosed-by:

Fixing this by simply ignoring such broken MLD queries (just like we do for IGMP already).
