syzbot reported a lockdep splat in gen_new_estimator() / est_fetch_counters() when attempting to lock est->stats_lock. Since est_fetch_counters() is called from BH context from timer interrupt, we need to block BH as well when calling it from process context. Most qdiscs use per cpu counters and are immune to the problem, but net/sched/act_api.c and net/netfilter/xt_RATEEST.c are using a spinlock to protect their data. They both call gen_new_estimator() while object is created and not yet alive, so this bug could not trigger a deadlock, only a lockdep splat.

Heiner reported a lockdep splat [1] This is caused by attempting GFP_KERNEL allocation while RCU lock is held and BH blocked. We believe that addrconf_verify_rtnl() could run for a long period, so instead of using GFP_ATOMIC here as Ido suggested, we should break the critical section and restart it after the allocation.

Otherwise, even if the route has expired, it won't get deleted.

When the frame check sequence (FCS) is split across the last two frames of a fragmented packet, part of the FCS gets counted twice, once when subtracting the FCS, and again when subtracting the previously received data. For example, if 1602 bytes are received, and the first fragment contains the first 1600 bytes (including the first two bytes of the FCS), and the second fragment contains the last two bytes of the FCS: 'skb->len == 1600' from the first fragment size = lstatus & BD_LENGTH_MASK; # 1602 size -= ETH_FCS_LEN; # 1598 size -= skb->len; # -2 Since the size is unsigned, it wraps around and causes a BUG later in the packet handling, as shown below: kernel BUG at ./include/linux/skbuff.h:2068!

pfifo_fast used to drop based on qdisc_dev(qdisc)->tx_queue_len, so we have to resize skb array when we change tx_queue_len. Other qdiscs which read tx_queue_len are fine because they all save it to sch->limit or somewhere else in qdisc during init. They don't have to implement this, it is nicer if they do so that users don't have to re-configure qdisc after changing tx_queue_len.

Introduce a new qdisc ops ->change_tx_queue_len() so that each qdisc could decide how to implement this if it wants. Previously we simply read dev->tx_queue_len, after pfifo_fast switches to skb array, we need this API to resize the skb array when we change dev->tx_queue_len. To avoid handling race conditions with TX BH, we need to deactivate all TX queues before change the value and bring them back after we are done, this also makes implementation easier.

It was found that ethtool provides unexisting module name while it queries the specified network device for associated driver information. Then user tries to unload that module by provided module name and fails. This happens because ethtool reads value of DRV_NAME macro, while module name is defined at the driver's Makefile. This patch is to correct Cavium CN88xx Thunder NIC driver names (DRV_NAME macro) 'thunder-nicvf' to 'nicvf' and 'thunder-nic' to 'nicpf', sync bgx and xcv driver names accordingly to their module names.

If a sk_v6_rcv_saddr is !IPV6_ADDR_ANY and !IPV6_ADDR_MAPPED, it implicitly implies it is an ipv6only socket. However, in inet6_bind(), this addr_type checking and setting sk->sk_ipv6only to 1 are only done after sk->sk_prot->get_port(sk, snum) has been completed successfully. This inconsistency between sk_v6_rcv_saddr and sk_ipv6only confuses the 'get_port()'. In particular, when binding SO_REUSEPORT UDP sockets, udp_reuseport_add_sock(sk,...) is called. udp_reuseport_add_sock() checks "ipv6_only_sock(sk2) == ipv6_only_sock(sk)" before adding sk to sk2->sk_reuseport_cb. In this case, ipv6_only_sock(sk2) could be 1 while ipv6_only_sock(sk) is still 0 here. The end result is, reuseport_alloc(sk) is called instead of adding sk to the existing sk2->sk_reuseport_cb. It can be reproduced by binding two SO_REUSEPORT UDP sockets on an IPv6 address (!ANY and !MAPPED). Only one of the socket will receive packet. The fix is to set the implicit sk_ipv6only before calling get_port(). The original sk_ipv6only has to be saved such that it can be restored in case get_port() failed. The situation is similar to the inet_reset_saddr(sk) after get_port() has failed. Thanks to Calvin Owens <calvinowens@fb.com> who created an easy reproduction which leads to a fix.

- Backwards Compatibility: If userspace wants to determine whether RTM_DELLINK supports the IFLA_IF_NETNSID property they should first send an RTM_GETLINK request with IFLA_IF_NETNSID on lo. If either EACCESS is returned or the reply does not include IFLA_IF_NETNSID userspace should assume that IFLA_IF_NETNSID is not supported on this kernel. If the reply does contain an IFLA_IF_NETNSID property userspace can send an RTM_DELLINK with a IFLA_IF_NETNSID property. If they receive EOPNOTSUPP then the kernel does not support the IFLA_IF_NETNSID property with RTM_DELLINK.

If they receive EOPNOTSUPP then the kernel does not support the IFLA_IF_NETNSID property with RTM_SETLINK. Userpace should then fallback to other means. To retain backwards compatibility the kernel will first check whether a IFLA_NET_NS_PID or IFLA_NET_NS_FD property has been passed. If either one is found it will be used to identify the target network namespace. This implies that users who do not care whether their running kernel supports IFLA_IF_NETNSID with RTM_SETLINK can pass both IFLA_NET_NS_{FD,PID} and IFLA_IF_NETNSID referring to the same network namespace. - Security: Callers must have CAP_NET_ADMIN in the owning user namespace of the target network namespace.

RTM_{NEW,SET}LINK already allow operations on other network namespaces by identifying the target network namespace through IFLA_NET_NS_{FD,PID} properties. This is done by looking for the corresponding properties in do_setlink(). Extend do_setlink() to also look for the IFLA_IF_NETNSID property. This introduces no functional changes since all callers of do_setlink() currently block IFLA_IF_NETNSID by reporting an error before they reach do_setlink(). This introduces the helpers: static struct net *rtnl_link_get_net_by_nlattr(struct net *src_net, struct nlattr *tb[]) static struct net *rtnl_link_get_net_capable(const struct sk_buff *skb, struct net *src_net, struct nlattr *tb[], int cap) to simplify permission checks and target network namespace retrieval for RTM_* requests that already support IFLA_NET_NS_{FD,PID} but get extended to IFLA_IF_NETNSID. To perserve backwards compatibility the helpers look for IFLA_NET_NS_{FD,PID} properties first before checking for IFLA_IF_NETNSID.

efx_default_channel_want_txqs() is only used in efx.c, while efx_ptp_want_txqs() and efx_ptp_channel_type (a struct) are only used in ptp.c. In all cases these symbols should be static.

Jeff Kirsher says: ==================== 40GbE Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2018-01-26 This series contains updates to i40e and i40evf. Michal updates the driver to pass critical errors from the firmware to the caller. Patryk fixes an issue of creating multiple identical filters with the same location, by simply moving the functions so that we remove the existing filter and then add the new filter. Paweł adds back in the ability to turn off offloads when VLAN is set for the VF driver. Fixed an issue where the number of TC queue pairs was exceeding MSI-X vectors count, causing messages about invalid TC mapping and wrong selected Tx queue. Alex cleans up the i40e/i40evf_set_itr_per_queue() by dropping all the unneeded pointer chases. Puts to use the reg_idx value, which was going unused, so that we can avoid having to compute the vector every time throughout the driver. Upasana enable the driver to display LLDP information on the vSphere Web Client by exposing DCB parameters. Alice converts our flags from 32 to 64 bit size, since we have added more flags. Dave implements a private ethtool flag to disable the processing of LLDP packets by the firmware, so that the firmware will not consume LLDPDU and cause them to be sent up the stack. Alan adds a mechanism for detecting/storing the flag for processing of LLDP packets by the firmware, so that its current state is persistent across reboots/reloads of the driver. Avinash fixes kdump with i40e due to resource constraints. We were enabling VMDq and iWARP when we just have a single CPU, which was starving kdump for the lack of IRQs. Jake adds support to program the fragmented IPv4 input set PCTYPE. Fixed the reported masks to properly report that the entire field is masked, since we had accidentally swapped the mask values for the IPv4 addresses with the L4 port numbers. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.
