The busy polling socket option adds support for sockets to busy wait on data arriving on the napi queue from which they have most recently received a frame. Currently only tcp and udp support this feature, but theres no reason sctp can't do so as well. Add it in so appliations can take advantage of it Signed-off-by: Neil Horman <nhorman@tuxdriver.com> CC: Vlad Yasevich <vyasevich@gmail.com> CC: "David S.

Currently broadcasts are handled in network RX context, where the packets are sent through netif_rx. This means that the number of macvlans will be constrained by the capacity of netif_rx. For example, setting up 4096 macvlans practically causes all broadcast packets to be dropped as the default netif_rx queue size simply can't handle 4096 skbs being stuffed into it all at once. Fundamentally, we need to ensure that the amount of work handled in each netif_rx backlog run is constrained. As broadcasts are anything but constrained, it either needs to be limited per run or moved to process context. This patch picks the second option and moves all broadcast handling bar the trivial case of packets going to a single interface into a work queue. Obviously there also needs to be a limit on how many broadcast packets we postpone in this way. I've arbitrarily chosen tx_queue_len of the master device as the limit (act_mirred also happens to use this parameter in a similar way). In order to ensure we don't exceed the backlog queue we will use netif_rx_ni instead of netif_rx for broadcast packets.

This patch adds the helper __dev_forward_skb which is identical to dev_forward_skb except that it doesn't actually inject the skb into the stack. This is useful where we wish to have finer control over how the packet is injected, e.g., via netif_rx_ni or netif_receive_skb.

Sasha Levin has reported two THP BUGs[1][2]. I believe both of them have the same root cause. Let's look to them one by one. The first bug[1] is "kernel BUG at mm/huge_memory.c:1829!". It's BUG_ON(mapcount != page_mapcount(page)) in __split_huge_page(). From my testing I see that page_mapcount() is higher than mapcount here. I think it happens due to race between zap_huge_pmd() and page_check_address_pmd(). page_check_address_pmd() misses PMD which is under zap: CPU0 CPU1 zap_huge_pmd() pmdp_get_and_clear() __split_huge_page() anon_vma_interval_tree_foreach() __split_huge_page_splitting() page_check_address_pmd() mm_find_pmd() /* * We check if PMD present without taking ptl: no * serialization against zap_huge_pmd(). We miss this PMD, * it's not accounted to 'mapcount' in __split_huge_page(). */ pmd_present(pmd) == 0 BUG_ON(mapcount != page_mapcount(page)) // CRASH!!! page_remove_rmap(page) atomic_add_negative(-1, &page->_mapcount) The second bug[2] is "kernel BUG at mm/huge_memory.c:1371!". It's VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(!PageHead(page), page) in zap_huge_pmd(). This happens in similar way: CPU0 CPU1 zap_huge_pmd() pmdp_get_and_clear() page_remove_rmap(page) atomic_add_negative(-1, &page->_mapcount) __split_huge_page() anon_vma_interval_tree_foreach() __split_huge_page_splitting() page_check_address_pmd() mm_find_pmd() pmd_present(pmd) == 0 /* The same comment as above */ /* * No crash this time since we already decremented page->_mapcount in * zap_huge_pmd(). */ BUG_ON(mapcount != page_mapcount(page)) /* * We split the compound page here into small pages without * serialization against zap_huge_pmd() */ __split_huge_page_refcount() VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(!PageHead(page), page); // CRASH!!! So my understanding the problem is pmd_present() check in mm_find_pmd() without taking page table lock. The bug was introduced by me commit with commit 117b0791. Sorry for that. :( Let's open code mm_find_pmd() in page_check_address_pmd() and do the check under page table lock. Note that __page_check_address() does the same for PTE entires if sync != 0. I've stress tested split and zap code paths for 36+ hours by now and don't see crashes with the patch applied. Before it took <20 min to trigger the first bug and few hours for second one (if we ignore first).

Mel Gorman authored
David Vrabel identified a regression when using automatic NUMA balancing under Xen whereby page table entries were getting corrupted due to the use of native PTE operations. Quoting him Xen PV guest page tables require that their entries use machine addresses if the preset bit (_PAGE_PRESENT) is set, and (for successful migration) non-present PTEs must use pseudo-physical addresses. This is because on migration MFNs in present PTEs are translated to PFNs (canonicalised) so they may be translated back to the new MFN in the destination domain (uncanonicalised). pte_mknonnuma(), pmd_mknonnuma(), pte_mknuma() and pmd_mknuma() set and clear the _PAGE_PRESENT bit using pte_set_flags(), pte_clear_flags(), etc. In a Xen PV guest, these functions must translate MFNs to PFNs when clearing _PAGE_PRESENT and translate PFNs to MFNs when setting _PAGE_PRESENT. His suggested fix converted p[te|md]_[set|clear]_flags to using paravirt-friendly ops but this is overkill. He suggested an alternative of using p[te|md]_modify in the NUMA page table operations but this is does more work than necessary and would require looking up a VMA for protections. This patch modifies the NUMA page table operations to use paravirt friendly operations to set/clear the flags of interest. Unfortunately this will take a performance hit when updating the PTEs on CONFIG_PARAVIRT but I do not see a way around it that does not break Xen.

In document numa_memory_policy.txt, the following examples for flag MPOL_F_RELATIVE_NODES are incorrect. For example, consider a task that is attached to a cpuset with mems 2-5 that sets an Interleave policy over the same set with MPOL_F_RELATIVE_NODES. If the cpuset's mems change to 3-7, the interleave now occurs over nodes 3,5-6. If the cpuset's mems then change to 0,2-3,5, then the interleave occurs over nodes 0,3,5. According to the comment of the patch adding flag MPOL_F_RELATIVE_NODES, the nodemasks the user specifies should be considered relative to the current task's mems_allowed. (https://lkml.org/lkml/2008/2/29/428) And according to numa_memory_policy.txt, if the user's nodemask includes nodes that are outside the range of the new set of allowed nodes, then the remap wraps around to the beginning of the nodemask and, if not already set, sets the node in the mempolicy nodemask. So in the example, if the user specifies 2-5, for a task whose mems_allowed is 3-7, the nodemasks should be remapped the third, fourth, fifth, sixth node in mems_allowed. like the following: mems_allowed: 3 4 5 6 7 relative index: 0 1 2 3 4 5 So the nodemasks should be remapped to 3,5-7, but not 3,5-6. And for a task whose mems_allowed is 0,2-3,5, the nodemasks should be remapped to 0,2-3,5, but not 0,3,5. mems_allowed: 0 2 3 5 relative index: 0 1 2 3 4 5 Signed-off-by: Tang Chen <tangchen@cn.fujitsu.com> Cc: Randy Dunlap <rdunlap@infradead.org> Acked-by: David Rientjes <rientjes@google.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

After that point, if an admin switches over to auth_enable=1, the machine can crash due to NULL pointer dereference during reception of an INIT chunk. When we enter sctp_process_init() via sctp_sf_do_5_1B_init() in order to respond to an INIT chunk, the INIT verification succeeds and while we walk and process all INIT params via sctp_process_param() we find that net->sctp.auth_enable is set, therefore do not fall through, but invoke sctp_auth_asoc_set_default_hmac() instead, and thus, dereference what we have set to NULL during endpoint initialization phase. The fix is to make auth_enable immutable by caching its value during endpoint initialization, so that its original value is being carried along until destruction. The bug seems to originate from the very first days. Fix in joint work with Daniel Borkmann.

John W. Linville says: ==================== pull request: wireless 2014-04-17 Please pull this batch of fixes intended for the 3.15 stream... For the mac80211 bits, Johannes says: "We have a fix from Chun-Yeow to not look at management frame bitrates that are typically really low, two fixes from Felix for AP_VLAN interfaces, a fix from Ido to disable SMPS settings when a monitor interface is enabled, a radar detection fix from Michał and a fix from myself for a very old remain-on-channel bug." For the iwlwifi bits, Emmanuel says: "I have new device IDs and a new firmware API. These are the trivial ones. The less trivial ones are Johannes's fix that delays the enablement of an interrupt coalescing hardware until after association - this fixes a few connection problems seen in the field. Eyal has a bunch of rate control fixes. I decided to add these for 3.15 because they fix some disconnection and packet loss scenarios which were reported by the field. I also have a fix for a memory leak that happens only with a very new NIC." Along with those... Amitkumar Karwar fixes a couple of problems relating to driver/firmware interactions in mwifiex. Christian Engelmayer avoids a couple of potential memory leaks in the new rsi driver. Eliad Peller provides a wl18xx mailbox alignment fix for problems when using new firmware. Frederic Danis adds a couple of missing debugging strings to the cw1200 driver. Geert Uytterhoeven adds a variable initialization inside of the rsi driver. Luciano Coelho patches the wlcore code to ignore dummy packet events in PLT mode in order to work around a firmware bug. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

The patch fixes a problem with dropped jumbo frames after usage of 'ethtool -G ... rx'. Scenario: 1. ip link set eth0 up 2. ethtool -G eth0 rx N # <- This zeroes rx-jumbo 3. ip link set mtu 9000 dev eth0 The ethtool command set rx_jumbo_pending to zero so any received jumbo packets are dropped and you need to use 'ethtool -G eth0 rx-jumbo N' to workaround the issue. The patch changes the logic so rx_jumbo_pending value is changed only if jumbo frames are enabled (MTU > 1500).

The new function vlan_dev_get_lockdep_subkey() will return the subkey and make the vlan dev could get a suitable class key. v2->v3: According David's suggestion, I use the subclass to distinguish the lock key for vlan dev and its real dev, but it make no sense, because the difference for subclass in the lock_class_key doesn't mean that the difference class for lock_key, so I use lock_depth to distinguish the different depth for every vlan dev, the same depth of the vlan dev could have the same lock_class_key, I import the MAX_LOCK_DEPTH from the include/linux/sched.h, I think it is enough here, the lockdep should never exceed that value. v3->v4: Add a huge array of locking keys will waste static kernel memory and is not a appropriate method, we could use _nested() variants to fix the problem, calculate the depth for every vlan dev, and use the depth as the subclass for addr_lock_key.
