      ipv6: Add rt6_make_pcpu_route() · a73e4195
      Martin KaFai Lau authored
      It is a prep work for fixing a potential deadlock when creating
      a pcpu rt.
      
      The current rt6_get_pcpu_route() will also create a pcpu rt if one does not
      exist.  This patch moves the pcpu rt creation logic into another function,
      rt6_make_pcpu_route().

      After 4b32b5ad ("ipv6: Stop rt6_info from using inet_peer's metrics"),
      ip6_dst_alloc() does not need the 'table' argument.  This patch

      net: phy: workaround for buggy cable detection by LAN8700 after cable plugging · 776829de
      Igor Plyatov authored
      * Due to HW bug, LAN8700 sometimes does not detect presence of energy in the
        Ethernet cable in Energy Detect Power-Down mode (e.g while EDPWRDOWN bit is
        set, the ENERGYON bit does not asserted sometimes). This is a common bug of
        LAN87xx family of PHY chips.
      * The lan87xx_read_status() was improved to acquire ENERGYON bit. Its previous
        algorythm still not reliable on 100 % and sometimes skip cable plugging.

      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().

      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.
