      ppp: fix device unregistration upon netns deletion · 8cb775bc
      Guillaume Nault authored 
      PPP devices may get automatically unregistered when their network
namespace is getting removed. This happens if the ppp control plane
daemon (e.g. pppd) exits while it is the last user of this namespace.

This leads to several races:

  * ppp_exit_net() may destroy the per namespace idr (pn->units_idr)
    before all file descriptors were released. Successive ppp_release()
    calls may then cleanup PPP devices with ppp_shutdown_interface() and
    try to use the already destroyed idr.

  * Automatic device unregistration may also happen before the
    ppp_release() call for that device gets executed. Once called on
    the file owning the device, ppp_release() will then clean it up and
    try to unregister it a second time.

To fix these issues, operations defined in ppp_shutdown_interface() are
moved to the PPP device's ndo_uninit() callback. This allows PPP
devices to be properly cleaned up by unregister_netdev() and friends.
So checking for ppp->owner is now an accurate test to decide if a PPP
device should be unregistered.

Setting ppp->owner is done in ppp_create_interface(), before device
registration, in order to avoid unprotected modification of this field.

Finally, ppp_exit_net() now starts by unregistering all remaining PPP
devices to ensure that none will get unregistered after the call to
idr_destroy().

      net: phy: fix PHY_RUNNING in phy_state_machine · 11e122cb
      Shaohui Xie authored 
      Currently, if phy state is PHY_RUNNING, we always register a CHANGE
when phy works in polling or interrupt ignored, this will make the
adjust_link being called even the phy link did Not changed.

checking the phy link to make sure the link did changed before we
register a CHANGE, if link did not changed, we do nothing.

      Revert "net: limit tcp/udp rmem/wmem to SOCK_{RCV,SND}BUF_MIN" · 5d37852b
      Calvin Owens authored 
      Commit 8133534c ("net: limit tcp/udp rmem/wmem to
SOCK_{RCV,SND}BUF_MIN") modified four sysctls to enforce that the values
written to them are not less than SOCK_MIN_{RCV,SND}BUF.

That change causes 4096 to no longer be accepted as a valid value for
'min' in tcp_wmem and udp_wmem_min. 4096 has been the default for both
of those sysctls for a long time, and unfortunately seems to be an
extremely popular setting. This change breaks a large number of sysctl
configurations at Facebook.

That commit referred to b1cb59cf ("net: sysctl_net_core: check
SNDBUF and RCVBUF for min length"), which choose to use the SOCK_MIN
constants as the lower limits to avoid nasty bugs. But AFAICS, a limit
of SOCK_MIN_SNDBUF isn't necessary to do that: the BUG_ON cited in the
commit message seems to have happened because unix_stream_sendmsg()
expects a minimum of a full page (ie SK_MEM_QUANTUM) and the math broke,
not because it had less than SOCK_MIN_SNDBUF allocated.

This particular issue doesn't seem to affect TCP however: using a
setting of "1 1 1" for tcp_{r,w}mem works, although it's obviously
suboptimal. SK_MEM_QUANTUM would be a nice minimum, but it's 64K on
some archs, so there would still be breakage.

Since a value of one doesn't seem to cause any problems, we can drop the
minimum 8133534c added to fix this.

This reverts commit 8133534c.

      inet: fix potential deadlock in reqsk_queue_unlink() · 83fccfc3
      Eric Dumazet authored 
      When replacing del_timer() with del_timer_sync(), I introduced
a deadlock condition :

reqsk_queue_unlink() is called from inet_csk_reqsk_queue_drop()

inet_csk_reqsk_queue_drop() can be called from many contexts,
one being the timer handler itself (reqsk_timer_handler()).

In this case, del_timer_sync() loops forever.

Simple fix is to test if timer is pending.

      gianfar: Restore link state settings after MAC reset · 2a4eebf0
      Claudiu Manoil authored 
      There are some MAC registers that need to be kept in sync
with the link state parameters, see adjust_link().
However, after a MAC soft reset default values for
these registers are assumed.  In some cases (excepting
if down/ if up for example) adjust_link() does not see
that these values were reset to default because the
priv->old* link parameters were left unchanged.
So, reset the priv->old* link params as well during a
MAC reset to let adjust_link() restore the MAC link
settings to the actual link state values.

Fixes following case, for example:
Setting link to 100M, changing MTU (implies MAC reset),
link state remains unchanged to 100M but MAC registers
were reset to default (1G) breaking the connectivity w/
the PHY.  Closing and re-opening the interface would
restore the MAC link parameters to the correct values.

      ipv4: off-by-one in continuation handling in /proc/net/route · 25b97c01
      Andy Whitcroft authored 
      When generating /proc/net/route we emit a header followed by a line for
each route.  When a short read is performed we will restart this process
based on the open file descriptor.  When calculating the start point we
fail to take into account that the 0th entry is the header.  This leads
us to skip the first entry when doing a continuation read.

This can be easily seen with the comparison below:

  while read l; do echo "$l"; done </proc/net/route >A
  cat /proc/net/route >B
  diff -bu A B | grep '^[+-]'

On my example machine I have approximatly 10KB of route output.  There we
see the very first non-title element is lost in the while read case,
and an entry around the 8K mark in the cat case:

  +wlan0 00000000 02021EAC 0003 0 0 400 00000000 0 0 0
  -tun1  00C0AC0A 00000000 0001 0 0 950 00C0FFFF 0 0 0

Fix up the off-by-one when reaquiring position on continuation.

      net: fix wrong skb_get() usage / crash in IGMP/MLD parsing code · a516993f
      Linus Lüssing authored 
      The recent refactoring of the IGMP and MLD parsing code into
ipv6_mc_check_mld() / ip_mc_check_igmp() introduced a potential crash /
BUG() invocation for bridges:

I wrongly assumed that skb_get() could be used as a simple reference
counter for an skb which is not the case. skb_get() bears additional
semantics, a user count. This leads to a BUG() invocation in
pskb_expand_head() / kernel panic if pskb_may_pull() is called on an skb
with a user count greater than one - unfortunately the refactoring did
just that.

Fixing this by removing the skb_get() call and changing the API: The
caller of ipv6_mc_check_mld() / ip_mc_check_igmp() now needs to
additionally check whether the returned skb_trimmed is a clone.

Fixes: 9afd85c9 ("net: Export IGMP/MLD message validation code")
