We should close link and all NIC operations during shutdown. On some systems graceful reboot never closes NIC interface on its own, but only indicates pci device shutdown. Without explicit handler, NIC rx rings continued to transfer DMA data into prepared buffers while CPU rebooted already. That caused memory corruptions on soft reboot.

We should report to napi full budget only when we have more job to do. Before this fix, on any tx queue cleanup we forced napi to do poll again. Thats a waste of cpu resources and caused storming with napi polls when there was at least one tx on each interrupt. With this fix we report full budget only when there is more job on TX to do. Or, as before, when rx budget was fully consumed. Signed-off-by: Igor Russkikh <igor.russkikh@aquantia.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

When the IRQ handler determines that one of the cmd IO channels has failed and schedules recovery, block any further cmd requests from being submitted. The request would inevitably stall, and prevent the recovery from making progress until the request times out. This sort of error was observed after Live Guest Relocation, where the pending IO on the READ channel intentionally gets terminated to kick-start recovery. Simultaneously the guest executed SIOCETHTOOL, triggering qeth to issue a QUERY CARD INFO command. The command then stalled in the inoperabel WRITE channel.

For calling ccw_device_start(), issue_next_read() needs to hold the device's ccwlock. This is satisfied for the IRQ handler path (where qeth_irq() gets called under the ccwlock), but we need explicit locking for the initial call by the MPC initialization.

On removal, a qeth card's netdevice is currently not properly freed because the call chain looks as follows: qeth_core_remove_device(card) lx_remove_device(card) unregister_netdev(card->dev) card->dev = NULL !!! qeth_core_free_card(card) if (card->dev) !!! free_netdev(card->dev) Fix it by free'ing the netdev straight after unregistering. This also fixes the sysfs-driven layer switch case (qeth_dev_layer2_store()), where the need to free the current netdevice was not considered at all. Note that free_netdev() takes care of the netif_napi_del() for us too.

Kevin Hao authored
The Ethernet on mpc8315erdb is broken since commit b6b5e8a6 ("gianfar: Disable EEE autoneg by default"). The reason is that even though the rtl8211b doesn't support the MMD extended registers access, it does return some random values if we trying to access the MMD register via indirect method. This makes it seem that the EEE is supported by this phy device. And the subsequent writing to the MMD registers does cause the phy malfunction. So use the dummy stubs for the MMD register access to fix this issue. Fixes: b6b5e8a6 ("gianfar: Disable EEE autoneg by default") Signed-off-by: Kevin Hao <haokexin@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

For some phy devices, even though they don't support the MMD extended register access, it does have some side effect if we are trying to read/write the MMD registers via indirect method.

Daniel Borkmann says: ==================== pull-request: bpf 2018-03-21 The following pull-request contains BPF updates for your *net* tree. The main changes are: 1) Follow-up fix to the fault injection framework to prevent jump optimization on the kprobe by installing a dummy post-handler, from Masami. 2) Drop bpf_perf_prog_read_value helper from tracepoint type programs which was mistakenly added there and would otherwise crash due to wrong input context, from Yonghong. 3) Fix a crash in BPF fs when compiled with clang. Code appears to be fine just that clang tries to overly aggressive optimize in non C conform ways, therefore fix the kernel's Makefile to generally prevent such issues, from Daniel. 4) Skip unnecessary capability checks in bpf syscall, which is otherwise triggering unnecessary security hooks on capability checking and causing false alarms on unprivileged processes trying to access CAP_SYS_ADMIN restricted infra, from Chenbo. 5) Fix the test_bpf.ko module when CONFIG_BPF_JIT_ALWAYS_ON is set with regards to a test case that is really just supposed to fail on x8_64 JIT but not others, from Thadeu. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

Issue is that the map was wrongly identified as a prog! Above kernel was compiled with clang 4.0, and it turns out that clang decided to merge the bpf_prog_iops and bpf_map_iops into a single memory location, such that the two i_ops could then not be distinguished anymore. Reason for this miscompilation is that clang has the more aggressive -fmerge-all-constants enabled by default. In fact, clang source code has a comment about it in lib/AST/ExprConstant.cpp on why it is okay to do so: Pointers with different bases cannot represent the same object. (Note that clang defaults to -fmerge-all-constants, which can lead to inconsistent results for comparisons involving the address of a constant; this generally doesn't matter in practice.) The issue never appeared with gcc however, since gcc does not enable -fmerge-all-constants by default and even *explicitly* states in it's option description that using this flag results in non-conforming behavior, quote from man gcc: Languages like C or C++ require each variable, including multiple instances of the same variable in recursive calls, to have distinct locations, so using this option results in non-conforming behavior. There are also various clang bug reports open on that matter [1], where clang developers acknowledge the non-conforming behavior, and refer to disabling it with -fno-merge-all-constants. But even if this gets fixed in clang today, there are already users out there that triggered this. Thus, fix this issue by explicitly adding -fno-merge-all-constants to the kernel's Makefile to generically disable this optimization, since potentially other places in the kernel could subtly break as well. Note, there is also a flag called -fmerge-constants (not supported by clang), which is more conservative and only applies to strings and it's enabled in gcc's -O/-O2/-O3/-Os optimization levels. In gcc's code, the two flags -fmerge-{all-,}constants share the same variable internally, so when disabling it via -fno-merge-all-constants, then we really don't merge any const data (e.g. strings), and text size increases with gcc (14,927,214 -> 14,942,646 for vmlinux.o). $ gcc -fverbose-asm -O2 foo.c -S -o foo.S -> foo.S lists -fmerge-constants under options enabled $ gcc -fverbose-asm -O2 -fno-merge-all-constants foo.c -S -o foo.S -> foo.S doesn't list -fmerge-constants under options enabled $ gcc -fverbose-asm -O2 -fno-merge-all-constants -fmerge-constants foo.c -S -o foo.S -> foo.S lists -fmerge-constants under options enabled Thus, as a workaround we need to set both -fno-merge-all-constants *and* -fmerge-constants in the Makefile in order for text size to stay as is.

The current check statement in BPF syscall will do a capability check for CAP_SYS_ADMIN before checking sysctl_unprivileged_bpf_disabled. This code path will trigger unnecessary security hooks on capability checking and cause false alarms on unprivileged process trying to get CAP_SYS_ADMIN access. This can be resolved by simply switch the order of the statement and CAP_SYS_ADMIN is not required anyway if unprivileged bpf syscall is allowed.

Commit 4bebdc7a ("bpf: add helper bpf_perf_prog_read_value") added helper bpf_perf_prog_read_value so that perf_event type program can read event counter and enabled/running time. This commit, however, introduced a bug which allows this helper for tracepoint type programs. This is incorrect as bpf_perf_prog_read_value needs to access perf_event through its bpf_perf_event_data_kern type context, which is not available for tracepoint type program. This patch fixed the issue by separating bpf_func_proto between tracepoint and perf_event type programs and removed bpf_perf_prog_read_value from tracepoint func prototype.

Function bpf_fill_maxinsns11 is designed to not be able to be JITed on x86_64. So, it fails when CONFIG_BPF_JIT_ALWAYS_ON=y, and commit 09584b40 ("bpf: fix selftests/bpf test_kmod.sh failure when CONFIG_BPF_JIT_ALWAYS_ON=y") makes sure that failure is detected on that case. However, it does not fail on other architectures, which have a different JIT compiler design. So, test_bpf has started to fail to load on those. After this fix, test_bpf loads fine on both x86_64 and ppc64el.
