      tipc: fix bug in link failover handling · e6441bae
      Jon Paul Maloy authored 
      In commit c637c103
("tipc: resolve race problem at unicast message reception") we
introduced a new mechanism for delivering buffers upwards from link
to socket layer.

That code contains a bug in how we handle the new link input queue
during failover. When a link is reset, some of its users may be blocked
because of congestion, and in order to resolve this, we add any pending
wakeup pseudo messages to the link's input queue, and deliver them to
the socket. This misses the case where the other, remaining link also
may have congested users. Currently, the owner node's reference to the
remaining link's input queue is unconditionally overwritten by the
reset link's input queue. This has the effect that wakeup events from
the remaining link may be unduely delayed (but not lost) for a
potentially long period.

We fix this by adding the pending events from the reset link to the
input queue that is currently referenced by the node, whichever one
it is.

This commit should be applied to both net and net-next.

      net: delete stale packet_mclist entries · 82f17091
      Francesco Ruggeri authored 
      When an interface is deleted from a net namespace the ifindex in the
corresponding entries in PF_PACKET sockets' mclists becomes stale.
This can create inconsistencies if later an interface with the same ifindex
is moved from a different namespace (not that unlikely since ifindexes are
per-namespace).
In particular we saw problems with dev->promiscuity, resulting
in "promiscuity touches roof, set promiscuity failed. promiscuity
feature of device might be broken" warnings and EOVERFLOW failures of
setsockopt(PACKET_ADD_MEMBERSHIP).
This patch deletes the mclist entries for interfaces that are deleted.
Since this now causes setsockopt(PACKET_DROP_MEMBERSHIP) to fail with
EADDRNOTAVAIL if called after the interface is deleted, also make
packet_mc_drop not fail.

Marc Kleine-Budde says:

====================
pull-request: can 2015-03-09

this is a pull request for net/master for the 4.0 release cycle, it consists of
6 patches:

A patch by Oliver Hartkopp fixes a long outstanding bug in the infrastructure,
which leads to skb_under_panics when CAN interfaces are used by AF_PACKET
sockets e.g. by dhclient. Stephane Grosjean contributes a patch for the
peak_usb driver which adds a missing initialization. Two patches by Ahmed S.
Darwish fix problems in the kvaser_usb driver. Followed by two patches by
myself, updating the MAINTAINERS file

      ftrace: Fix ftrace enable ordering of sysctl ftrace_enabled · 524a3868
      Steven Rostedt (Red Hat) authored 
      Some archs (specifically PowerPC), are sensitive with the ordering of
the enabling of the calls to function tracing and setting of the
function to use to be traced.

That is, update_ftrace_function() sets what function the ftrace_caller
trampoline should call. Some archs require this to be set before
calling ftrace_run_update_code().

Another bug was discovered, that ftrace_startup_sysctl() called
ftrace_run_update_code() directly. If the function the ftrace_caller
trampoline changes, then it will not be updated. Instead a call
to ftrace_startup_enable() should be called because it tests to see
if the callback changed since the code was disabled, and will
tell the arch to update appropriately. Most archs do not need this
notification, but PowerPC does.

The problem could be seen by the following commands:

 # echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/ftrace_enabled
 # echo function > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer
 # echo 1 > /proc/sys/kernel/ftrace_enabled
 # cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace

The trace will show that function tracing was not active.

      ftrace: Fix en(dis)able graph caller when en(dis)abling record via sysctl · 1619dc3f
      Pratyush Anand authored 
      When ftrace is enabled globally through the proc interface, we must check if
ftrace_graph_active is set. If it is set, then we should also pass the
FTRACE_START_FUNC_RET command to ftrace_run_update_code(). Similarly, when
ftrace is disabled globally through the proc interface, we must check if
ftrace_graph_active is set. If it is set, then we should also pass the
FTRACE_STOP_FUNC_RET command to ftrace_run_update_code().

Consider the following situation.

 # echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/ftrace_enabled

After this ftrace_enabled = 0.

 # echo function_graph > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer

Since ftrace_enabled = 0, ftrace_enable_ftrace_graph_caller() is never
called.

 # echo 1 > /proc/sys/kernel/ftrace_enabled

Now ftrace_enabled will be set to true, but still
ftrace_enable_ftrace_graph_caller() will not be called, which is not
desired.

Further if we execute the following after this:
  # echo nop > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer

Now since ftrace_enabled is set it will call
ftrace_disable_ftrace_graph_caller(), which causes a kernel warning on
the ARM platform.

On the ARM platform, when ftrace_enable_ftrace_graph_caller() is called,
it checks whether the old instruction is a nop or not. If it's not a nop,
then it returns an error. If it is a nop then it replaces instruction at
that address with a branch to ftrace_graph_caller.
ftrace_disable_ftrace_graph_caller() behaves just the opposite. Therefore,
if generic ftrace code ever calls either ftrace_enable_ftrace_graph_caller()
or ftrace_disable_ftrace_graph_caller() consecutively two times in a row,
then it will return an error, which will cause the generic ftrace code to
raise a warning.

Note, x86 does not have an issue with this because the architecture
specific code for ftrace_enable_ftrace_graph_caller() and
ftrace_disable_ftrace_graph_caller() does not check the previous state,
and calling either of these functions twice in a row has no ill effect.

      ftrace: Clear REGS_EN and TRAMP_EN flags on disabling record via sysctl · b24d443b
      Steven Rostedt (Red Hat) authored 
      When /proc/sys/kernel/ftrace_enabled is set to zero, all function
tracing is disabled. But the records that represent the functions
still hold information about the ftrace_ops that are hooked to them.

ftrace_ops may request "REGS" (have a full set of pt_regs passed to
the callback), or "TRAMP" (the ops has its own trampoline to use).
When the record is updated to represent the state of the ops hooked
to it, it sets "REGS_EN" and/or "TRAMP_EN" to state that the callback
points to the correct trampoline (REGS has its own trampoline).

When ftrace_enabled is set to zero, all ftrace locations are a nop,
so they do not point to any trampoline. But the _EN flags are still
set. This can cause the accounting to go wrong when ftrace_enabled
is cleared and an ops that has a trampoline is registered or unregistered.

For example, the following will cause ftrace to crash:

 # echo function_graph > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer
 # echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/ftrace_enabled
 # echo nop > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer
 # echo 1 > /proc/sys/kernel/ftrace_enabled
 # echo function_graph > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer

As function_graph uses a trampoline, when ftrace_enabled is set to zero
the updates to the record are not done. When enabling function_graph
again, the record will still have the TRAMP_EN flag set, and it will
look for an op that has a trampoline other than the function_graph
ops, and fail to find one.
