When setting up ILA in a router we noticed that the the encapsulation is invoked twice: once in the route input path and again upon route output. To resolve this we add a flag set_csum_neutral for the ila_update_ipv6_locator. If this flag is set and the checksum neutral bit is also set we assume that checksum-neutral translation has already been performed and take no further action. The flag is set only in ila_output path. The flag is not set for ila_input and ila_xlat. Tested: Used 3 netns to set to emulate a router and two hosts. The router translates SIR addresses between the two destinations in other two netns. Verified ping and netperf are functional. Signed-off-by: Tom Herbert <tom@herbertland.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

RFC 5961 advises to only accept RST packets containing a seq number matching the next expected seq number instead of the whole receive window in order to avoid spoofing attacks. However, this situation is not optimal in the case SACK is in use at the time the RST is sent. I recently run into a scenario in which packet losses were high while uploading data to a server, and userspace was willing to frequently terminate connections by sending a RST. In this case, the ACK sent on the receiver side (rcv_nxt) is frozen waiting for a lost packet retransmission and SACK blocks are used to let the client continue uploading data. At some point later on, the client sends the RST (snd_nxt), which matches the next expected seq number of the right-most SACK block on the receiver side which is going forward receiving data. In this scenario, as RFC 5961 defines, the RST SEQ doesn't match the frozen main ACK at receiver side and thus gets dropped and a challenge ACK is sent, which gets usually lost due to network conditions. The main consequence is that the connection stays alive for a while even if it made sense to accept the RST. This can get really bad if lots of connections like this one are created in few seconds, allocating all the resources of the server easily. For security reasons, not all SACK blocks are checked (there could be a big amount of SACK blocks => acceptable SEQ numbers). Furthermore, it wouldn't make sense to check for RST in blocks other than the right-most received one because the sender is not expected to be sending new data after the RST. For simplicity, only up to the 4 most recently updated SACK blocks (selective_acks[4] field) are compared to find the right-most block, as usually those are the ones with bigger probability to contain it. This patch was tested in a 3.18 kernel and probed to improve the situation in the scenario described above.

In the current code "ent_per_page" could be more than "conn_num" making "conn_num" negative after the subtraction. In the next iteration through the loop then the negative is treated as a very high positive meaning we don't put a limit on "ent_num". It could lead to memory corruption.

Add support for locally originated traffic to VRF-local IPv6 addresses. Similar to IPv4 a local dst is set on the skb and the packet is reinserted with a call to netif_rx.

Eric Dumazet says: ==================== net: sched: faster stats gathering A while back, I sent one RFC patch using lockless stats gathering on 64bit arches. This patch series does it more cleanly, using a seqcount. Since qdisc/class stats are written at dequeue() time, we can ask the dequeue to change the seqcount, so that stats readers can avoid taking the root qdisc lock, and instead the typical read_seqcount_{begin|retry} guarded loop. This does not change fast path costs, as the seqcount increments are not more expensive than the bit manipulation, and allows readers to not freeze the fast path anymore. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

Large tc dumps (tc -s {qdisc|class} sh dev ethX) done by Google BwE host agent [1] are problematic at scale : For each qdisc/class found in the dump, we currently lock the root qdisc spinlock in order to get stats. Sampling stats every 5 seconds from thousands of HTB classes is a challenge when the root qdisc spinlock is under high pressure. Not only the dumps take time, they also slow down the fast path (queue/dequeue packets) by 10 % to 20 % in some cases. An audit of existing qdiscs showed that sch_fq_codel is the only qdisc that might need the qdisc lock in fq_codel_dump_stats() and fq_codel_dump_class_stats() In v2 of this patch, I now use the Qdisc running seqcount to provide consistent reads of packets/bytes counters, regardless of 32/64 bit arches. I also changed rate estimators to use the same infrastructure so that they no longer need to lock root qdisc lock.

Instead of using a single bit (__QDISC___STATE_RUNNING) in sch->__state, use a seqcount. This adds lockdep support, but more importantly it will allow us to sample qdisc/class statistics without having to grab qdisc root lock.

Sathya Perla says: ==================== be2net: patch set Hi David, the following patch set contains three non-critical fixes that can go into the net-next tree. Patch 1 fixes the logic for provisioning queue pairs on VFs to take into account the limit on number of TXQs too as in some profiles the number of TXQs is less than that of RXQs. Patch 2 enables WoL support from shutdown on Skyhawk. Patch 3 enhances the logic for provisioning queue pairs on VFs on SR-IOV over multi-partition configs. Each PF (partition) on a port has to compute the number of RSS tables it's VFs can use. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Currently, we do not distribute queue resources to enable RSS for VFs in multi-channel/partition configurations. Fix this by having each PF(SRIOV capable) calculate it's share of the 15 RSS Policy Tables available per port before provisioning resources for all the VFs. This proportional share calculation is done based on division of the PF's MAX VFs with the Total MAX VFs on that port. It also needs to learn about the no: of NIC PFs on the port and subtract that from the 15 RSS Policy Tables on the port.

Sriharsha Basavapatna authored
Skyhawk does support wake-up from ACPI shutdown state - S5, provided the platform supports it (like Auxiliary power source etc). The changes listed below are done to fix this. 1) There's no need to defer the HW configuration of WOL to be_suspend(). Remove this in be_suspend() and move it to be_set_wol() ethtool function so it is configured directly in the context of ethtool. This automatically takes care of the shutdown case. 2) The driver incorrectly uses WOL_CAP field in the FW response to get_acpi_wol_cap() command, to determine if WOL is enabled. Instead the driver must rely on the macaddr field in the response to infer WOL state. 3) In be_get_config() during init, if we find that WOL is enabled in FW, call pci_enable_wake() to enable pmcsr.pme_en bit. This is needed to support persistent WOL configuration provided by the FW in some platforms. 4) Remove code in be_set_wol() that writes to PCICFG_PM_CONTROL_OFFSET to set pme_en bit; pci_enable_wake() sets that.

When the PF driver provisions resources for VFs, it currently only looks at max RSS queues available to calculate the number of VF queue pairs. This logic breaks when there are less number of TX-queues than RSS-queues. This patch fixes this problem by using the max-TXQs available in the PF-pool in the calculations. As a part of this change the be_calculate_vf_qs() routine is renamed as be_calculate_vf_res() and the code that calculates limits on other related resources is moved here to contain all resource calculation code inside one routine.

Yuval Mintz says: ==================== qed: IOV series - relax firmware requirements In order for VFs to work, current implementation demands that the VF's requried storm firmware would be exactly the version that was loaded by the PF, which is a very harsh requirement. This patch series is intended to relax this - the recently submitted firmware is intended to be forward/backward compatible in its fastpath [slowpath is configured by PF on behalf of VF], and so VFs would only be required of having the same major faspath HSI in order to work. Most of the other patches in this series extend current forward compatibilty of driver to reduce chance of breaking PF/VF compatibility in the future. A few are unrelated IOV changes. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

If a future VF would send the PF an unknown message, the PF today would not send a reply. This would have 2 bad effects: a. VF would have to timeout on the request. b. If VF were to send an additional message to PF, firmware would mark it as malicious. Instead, if there's some valid reply-address on the message - let the PF answer and tell the VF it doesn't know the message.

The only limitation relating to MACs the PF enforce today on its VFs is in case it has a forced-unicast MAC address for them, in which case they can't configure other unicast addresses. Specifically, the PF isn't enforcing the number of MAC addresse a VF can configure regardless of the nubmer of such filters agreed upon by PF and VF during the acquisition process. PF's shadow-config is now extended to also contain information about its VFs' unicast addresses configuration, allowing such enforcement.
