Hayes Wang says: ==================== r8152: fix scheduling napi v3: simply the argument for patch #3. Replace &tp->napi with napi. v2: Add smp_mb__after_atomic() for patch #1. v1: Scheduling the napi during the following periods would let it be ignored. And the events wouldn't be handled until next napi_schedule() is called. 1. after napi_disable and before napi_enable(). 2. after all actions of napi function is completed and before calling napi_complete(). If no next napi_schedule() is called, tx or rx would stop working. In order to avoid these situations, the followings solutions are applied. 1. prevent start_xmit() from calling napi_schedule() during runtime suspend or after napi_disable(). 2. re-schedule the napi for tx if it is necessary. 3. check if any rx is finished or not after napi_enable(). ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

Schedule the napi after napi_enable() for rx, if it is necessary. If the rx is completed when napi is disabled, the sheduling of napi would be lost.

Commit 4567d686 ("phy: increase size of MII_BUS_ID_SIZE and bus_id") increased the size of MII bus IDs, but forgot to update the private definition in <linux/phy_led_triggers.h>. This may cause: 1. Truncation of LED trigger names, 2. Duplicate LED trigger names, 3. Failures registering LED triggers, 4. Crashes due to bad error handling in the LED trigger failure path. To fix this, and prevent the definitions going out of sync again in the future, let the PHY LED trigger code use the existing MII_BUS_ID_SIZE definition. Example: - Before I had triggers "ee700000.etherne:01:100Mbps" and "ee700000.etherne:01:10Mbps", - After the increase of MII_BUS_ID_SIZE, both became "ee700000.ethernet-ffffffff:01:" => FAIL, - Now, the triggers are "ee700000.ethernet-ffffffff:01:100Mbps" and "ee700000.ethernet-ffffffff:01:10Mbps", which are unique again.

phy_attach_direct() ignores errors returned by phy_led_triggers_register(). I think that's OK, as LED triggers can be considered a non-critical feature. However, this causes problems later: - phy_led_trigger_change_speed() will access the array phy_device.phy_led_triggers, which has been freed in the error path of phy_led_triggers_register(), which may lead to a crash. - phy_led_triggers_unregister() will access the same array, leading to crashes during s2ram or poweroff, like: Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000000 ...

These 2 functions take RTNL lock under some conditions, but some callers (such as open, ethtool) have already taken RTNL. These 3 patches fix the issue by making it clear that callers must take RTNL. If the caller is bnxt_sp_task() which does not automatically take RTNL, we add a common scheme for bnxt_sp_task() to call these functions properly under RTNL. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

bnxt_update_link() is called from multiple code paths. Most callers, such as open, ethtool, already hold RTNL. Only the caller bnxt_sp_task() does not. So it is a bug to take RTNL inside bnxt_update_link(). Fix it by removing the RTNL inside bnxt_update_link(). The function now expects the caller to always hold RTNL. In bnxt_sp_task(), call bnxt_rtnl_lock_sp() before calling bnxt_update_link(). We also need to move the call to the end of bnxt_sp_task() since it will be clearing the BNXT_STATE_IN_SP_TASK bit.

In bnxt_sp_task(), we set a bit BNXT_STATE_IN_SP_TASK so that bnxt_close() will synchronize and wait for bnxt_sp_task() to finish. Some functions in bnxt_sp_task() require us to clear BNXT_STATE_IN_SP_TASK and then acquire rtnl_lock() to prevent race conditions. There are some bugs related to this logic. This patch refactors the code to have common bnxt_rtnl_lock_sp() and bnxt_rtnl_unlock_sp() to handle the RTNL and the clearing/setting of the bit. Multiple functions will need the same logic. We also need to move bnxt_reset() to the end of bnxt_sp_task(). Functions that clear BNXT_STATE_IN_SP_TASK must be the last functions to be called in bnxt_sp_task(). The common scheme will handle the condition properly. Signed-off-by: Michael Chan <michael.chan@broadcom.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Now sctp gso puts segments into skb's frag_list, then processes these segments in skb_segment. But skb_segment handles them only when gs is enabled, as it's in the same branch with skb's frags. Although almost all the NICs support sg other than some old ones, but since commit 1e16aa3d ("net: gso: use feature flag argument in all protocol gso handlers"), features &= skb->dev->hw_enc_features, and xfrm_output_gso call skb_segment with features = 0, which means sctp gso would call skb_segment with sg = 0, and skb_segment would not work as expected. This patch is to fix it by setting features param with NETIF_F_SG when calling skb_segment so that it can go the right branch to process the skb's frag_list.

sctp_addr_id2transport is a function for sockopt to look up assoc by address. As the address is from userspace, it can be a v4-mapped v6 address. But in sctp protocol stack, it always handles a v4-mapped v6 address as a v4 address. So it's necessary to convert it to a v4 address before looking up assoc by address. This patch is to fix it by calling sctp_verify_addr in which it can do this conversion before calling sctp_endpoint_lookup_assoc, just like what sctp_sendmsg and __sctp_connect do for the address from users.

Robert Shearman says: ==================== net: Fix oops on state free after lwt module unload An oops is seen in lwtstate_free after an lwt ops module has been unloaded. This patchset fixes this by preventing modules implementing lwtunnel ops from being unloaded whilst there's state alive using those ops. The first patch adds fills in a new owner field in all lwt ops and the second patch makes use of this to reference count the modules as state is built and destroyed using them. Changes in v3: - don't put module reference if try_module_get fails on building state Changes in v2: - specify module owner for all modules as suggested by DaveM - reference count all modules building lwt state, not just those ops implementing destroy_state, as also suggested by DaveM. - rebased on top of David Ahern's lwtunnel changes ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

Commit 333f7962 ("tipc: fix a race condition leading to subscriber refcnt bug") reveals a soft lockup while acquiring nametbl_lock. Before commit 333f7962, we call tipc_conn_shutdown() from tipc_close_conn() in the context of tipc_topsrv_stop(). In that context, we are allowed to grab the nametbl_lock. Commit 333f7962, moved tipc_conn_release (renamed from tipc_conn_shutdown) to the connection refcount cleanup. This allows either tipc_nametbl_withdraw() or tipc_topsrv_stop() to the cleanup. Since tipc_exit_net() first calls tipc_topsrv_stop() and then tipc_nametble_withdraw() increases the chances for the later to perform the connection cleanup. The soft lockup occurs in the call chain of tipc_nametbl_withdraw(), when it performs the tipc_conn_kref_release() as it tries to grab nametbl_lock again while holding it already. tipc_nametbl_withdraw() grabs nametbl_lock tipc_nametbl_remove_publ() tipc_subscrp_report_overlap() tipc_subscrp_send_event() tipc_conn_sendmsg() << if (con->flags != CF_CONNECTED) we do conn_put(), triggering the cleanup as refcount=0. >> tipc_conn_kref_release tipc_sock_release tipc_conn_release tipc_subscrb_delete tipc_subscrp_delete tipc_nametbl_unsubscribe << Soft Lockup >> The previous changes in this series fixes the race conditions fixed by commit 333f7962.

Until now, the generic server framework maintains the connection id's per subscriber in server's conn_idr. At tipc_close_conn, we remove the connection id from the server list, but the connection is valid until we call the refcount cleanup. Hence we have a window where the server allocates the same connection to an new subscriber leading to inconsistent reference count. We have another refcount warning we grab the refcount in tipc_conn_lookup() for connections with flag with CF_CONNECTED not set. This usually occurs at shutdown when the we stop the topology server and withdraw TIPC_CFG_SRV publication thereby triggering a withdraw message to subscribers. In this commit, we: 1. remove the connection from the server list at recount cleanup. 2. grab the refcount for a connection only if CF_CONNECTED is set.

Until now, the subscribers keep track of the subscriptions using reference count at subscriber level. At subscription cancel or subscriber delete, we delete the subscription only if the timer was pending for the subscription. This approach is incorrect as: 1. del_timer() is not SMP safe, if on CPU0 the check for pending timer returns true but CPU1 might schedule the timer callback thereby deleting the subscription. Thus when CPU0 is scheduled, it deletes an invalid subscription. 2. We export tipc_subscrp_report_overlap(), which accesses the subscription pointer multiple times. Meanwhile the subscription timer can expire thereby freeing the subscription and we might continue to access the subscription pointer leading to memory violations. In this commit, we introduce subscription refcount to avoid deleting an invalid subscription.

We trigger a soft lockup as we grab nametbl_lock twice if the node has a pending node up/down or link up/down event while: - we process an incoming named message in tipc_named_rcv() and perform an tipc_update_nametbl(). - we have pending backlog items in the name distributor queue during a nametable update using tipc_nametbl_publish() or tipc_nametbl_withdraw(). The following are the call chain associated: tipc_named_rcv() Grabs nametbl_lock tipc_update_nametbl() (publish/withdraw) tipc_node_subscribe()/unsubscribe() tipc_node_write_unlock() << lockup occurs if an outstanding node/link event exits, as we grabs nametbl_lock again >> tipc_nametbl_withdraw() Grab nametbl_lock tipc_named_process_backlog() tipc_update_nametbl() << rest as above >> The function tipc_node_write_unlock(), in addition to releasing the lock processes the outstanding node/link up/down events. To do this, we need to grab the nametbl_lock again leading to the lockup. In this commit we fix the soft lockup by introducing a fast variant of node_unlock(), where we just release the lock. We adapt the node_subscribe()/node_unsubscribe() to use the fast variants.

If requesting msi-x interrupts fails in alx_request_irq we fall back to a single tx queue and msi or legacy interrupts. Currently the adapter stops working in this case and we get tx watchdog timeouts. For reasons unknown the adapter gets confused when we load the dma adresses to the chip in alx_init_ring_ptrs twice: the first time with multiple queues and the second time in the fallback case with a single queue. To fix this move the the call to alx_reinit_rings (which calls alx_init_ring_ptrs) after alx_request_irq. At this time it is clear how much tx queues we have and which dma addresses we use.

If requesting msi-x interrupts fails we should fall back to msi or legacy interrupts. However alx_realloc_ressources don't call alx_init_intr, so we fail to set the right number of tx queues. This results in watchdog timeouts and a nonfunctional adapter. Fixes: d768319c ("alx: enable multiple tx queues") Signed-off-by: Tobias Regnery <tobias.regnery@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

The condition to free the descriptor memory is wrong, we want to free the memory if it is set and not if it is unset. Invert the test to fix this issue.

Another rebranded Novatel E371. qmi_wwan should drive this device, while cdc_ether should ignore it. Even though the USB descriptors are plain CDC-ETHER that USB interface is a QMI interface.

When using the ibmveth driver in a KVM/QEMU based VM, it currently always prints out a scary error message like this when it is started: ibmveth 71000003 (unregistered net_device): unable to change checksum offload settings. 1 rc=-2 ret_attr=71000003 This happens because the driver always tries to enable the checksum offloading without checking for the availability of this feature first. QEMU does not support checksum offloading for the spapr-vlan device, thus we always get the error message here. According to the LoPAPR specification, the "ibm,illan-options" property of the corresponding device tree node should be checked first to see whether the H_ILLAN_ATTRIUBTES hypercall and thus the checksum offloading feature is available. Thus let's do this in the ibmveth driver, too, so that the error message is really only limited to cases where something goes wrong, and does not occur if the feature is just missing.

This function suffers from multiple issues. First one is that pskb_may_pull() may reallocate skb->head, so the 'raw' pointer needs either to be reloaded or not used at all. Second issue is that NEXTHDR_DEST handling does not validate that the options are present in skb->data, so we might read garbage or access non existent memory. With help from Willem de Bruijn.
