SCM_SCREDENTIALS should apply to write() syscalls only either source or destination socket asserted SOCK_PASSCRED. The original implememtation in maybe_add_creds is wrong, and breaks several LSB testcases ( i.e. /tset/LSB.os/netowkr/recvfrom/T.recvfrom).

Jeff Kirsher says: ==================== This series contains updates to ixgbevf and igb. The ixgbevf calls to pci_disable_msix() and to free the msix_entries memory should not occur if device open fails. Instead they should be called during device driver removal to balance with the call to pci_enable_msix() and the call to allocate msix_entries memory during the device probe and driver load. The remaining 4 of 5 igb patches are simple 1-3 line patches to fix several issues such as possible null pointer dereference, PHC stopping on max frequency, make sensor info static and SR-IOV initialization reordering. The remaining igb patch to fix anti-spoofing config fixes a problem in i350 where anti spoofing configuration was written into a wrong register. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

skb->ip_summed should be CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY when the driver reports that checksums were correct and CHECKSUM_NONE in any other case.

For 82576 MAC type, max_adj is reported as 1000000000 ppb. However, if this value is passed to igb_ptp_adjfreq_82576, incvalue overflows out of INCVALUE_82576_MASK, resulting in setting of zero TIMINCA.incvalue, stopping the PHC (instead of going at twice the nominal speed). Fix the advertised max_adj value to the largest value hardware can handle. As there is no min_adj value available (-max_adj is used instead), this will also prevent stopping the clock intentionally. It's probably not a big deal, other igb MAC types don't support stopping the clock, either.

Alex Williamson authored
The max_vfs= option has always been self limiting to the number of VFs supported by the device. fa44f2f1 added SR-IOV configuration via sysfs, but in the process broke this self correction factor. The failing path is: igb_probe igb_sw_init if (max_vfs > 7) { adapter->vfs_allocated_count = 7; ... igb_probe_vfs igb_enable_sriov(, max_vfs) if (num_vfs > 7) { err = -EPERM; ... This leaves vfs_allocated_count = 7 and vf_data = NULL, so we bomb out when igb_probe finally calls igb_reset. It seems like a really bad idea, and somewhat pointless, to set vfs_allocated_count separate from vf_data, but limiting max_vfs is enough to avoid the null pointer.

When the ixgbevf driver is opened the request to allocate MSIX irq vectors may fail. In that case the driver will call ixgbevf_down() which will call ixgbevf_irq_disable() to clear the HW interrupt registers and calls synchronize_irq() using the msix_entries pointer in the adapter structure. However, when the function to request the MSIX irq vectors failed it had already freed the msix_entries which causes an OOPs from using the NULL pointer in synchronize_irq(). The calls to pci_disable_msix() and to free the msix_entries memory should not occur if device open fails. Instead they should be called during device driver removal to balance with the call to pci_enable_msix() and the call to allocate msix_entries memory during the device probe and driver load.

As reported by Jan, and others over the past few years, there is a race condition caused by unix_release setting the sock->sk pointer to NULL before properly marking the socket as dead/orphaned. This can cause a problem with the LSM hook security_unix_may_send() if there is another socket attempting to write to this partially released socket in between when sock->sk is set to NULL and it is marked as dead/orphaned. This patch fixes this by only setting sock->sk to NULL after the socket has been marked as dead; I also take the opportunity to make unix_release_sock() a void function as it only ever returned 0/success. Dave, I think this one should go on the -stable pile. Special thanks to Jan for coming up with a reproducer for this problem.

On SACK reneging the sender immediately retransmits and forces a timeout but disables Eifel (undo). If the (buggy) receiver does not drop any packet this can trigger a false slow-start retransmit storm driven by the ACKs of the original packets. This can be detected with undo and TCP timestamps.

When I tried to set mac address of a bridge interface to a mac address which already learned on this bridge, I got system hang. The cause is straight forward: function br_fdb_change_mac_address calls fdb_insert with NULL source nbp. Then an fdb lookup is performed. If an fdb entry is found and it's local, it's OK. But if it's not local, source is dereferenced for printk without NULL check. Signed-off-by: Hong Zhiguo <honkiko@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Tom Parkin says: ==================== This l2tp bugfix patchset addresses a number of issues. The first five patches in the series prevent l2tp sessions pinning an l2tp tunnel open. This occurs because the l2tp tunnel is torn down in the tunnel socket destructor, but each session holds a tunnel socket reference which prevents tunnels with sessions being deleted. The solution I've implemented here involves adding a .destroy hook to udp code, as discussed previously on netdev[1]. The subsequent seven patches address futher bugs exposed by fixing the problem above, or exposed through stress testing the implementation above. Patch 11 (avoid deadlock in l2tp stats update) isn't directly related to tunnel/session lifetimes, but it does prevent deadlocks on i386 kernels running on 64 bit hardware. This patchset has been tested on 32 and 64 bit preempt/non-preempt kernels, using iproute2, openl2tp, and custom-made stress test code.

If we postpone unhashing of l2tp sessions until the structure is freed, we risk: 1. further packets arriving and getting queued while the pseudowire is being closed down 2. the recv path hitting "scheduling while atomic" errors in the case that recv drops the last reference to a session and calls l2tp_session_free while in atomic context As such, l2tp sessions should be unhashed from l2tp_core data structures early in the teardown process prior to calling pseudowire close. For pseudowires like l2tp_ppp which have multiple shutdown codepaths, provide an unhash hook.
