The sockaddr is returned in IP(V6)_RECVERR as part of errhdr. That structure is defined and allocated on the stack as struct { struct sock_extended_err ee; struct sockaddr_in(6) offender; } errhdr; The second part is only initialized for certain SO_EE_ORIGIN values. Always initialize it completely. An MTU exceeded error on a SOCK_RAW/IPPROTO_RAW is one example that would return uninitialized bytes. Signed-off-by: Willem de Bruijn <willemb@google.com> ---- Also verified that there is no padding between errhdr.ee and errhdr.offender that could leak additional kernel data.

commit b284fbe3 ("sh_eth: Fix access to TRSCER register") wanted to add a .trscer_err_mask value to the R-Car Gen2 family-specific data structure (r8a779x_data), but it was accidentally added to the SH7724-specific data structure (sh7724_data). Presumably this happened due to a patch conflict with commit d407bc02 ("sh-eth: Set fdr_value of R-Car SoCs"), which added another field at the same position. Move the field setting to fix this.

Flooding the Kvaser CAN to USB dongle with multiple reads and writes in very high frequency (*), closing the CAN channel while all the transmissions are on (#), opening the device again (@), then sending a small number of packets would make the driver enter an almost infinite loop of: [....] [15959.853988] kvaser_usb 4-3:1.0 can0: cannot find free context [15959.853990] kvaser_usb 4-3:1.0 can0: cannot find free context [15959.853991] kvaser_usb 4-3:1.0 can0: cannot find free context [15959.853993] kvaser_usb 4-3:1.0 can0: cannot find free context [15959.853994] kvaser_usb 4-3:1.0 can0: cannot find free context [15959.853995] kvaser_usb 4-3:1.0 can0: cannot find free context [....] _dragging the whole system down_ in the process due to the excessive logging output. Initially, this has caused random panics in the kernel due to a buggy error recovery path. That got fixed in an earlier commit.(%) This patch aims at solving the root cause. --> 16 tx URBs and contexts are allocated per CAN channel per USB device. Such URBs are protected by: a) A simple atomic counter, up to a value of MAX_TX_URBS (16) b) A flag in each URB context, stating if it's free c) The fact that ndo_start_xmit calls are themselves protected by the networking layers higher above After grabbing one of the tx URBs, if the driver noticed that all of them are now taken, it stops the netif transmission queue. Such queue is worken up again only if an acknowedgment was received from the firmware on one of our earlier-sent frames. Meanwhile, upon channel close (#), the driver sends a CMD_STOP_CHIP to the firmware, effectively closing all further communication. In the high traffic case, the atomic counter remains at MAX_TX_URBS, and all the URB contexts remain marked as active. While opening the channel again (@), it cannot send any further frames since no more free tx URB contexts are available. Reset all tx URB contexts upon CAN channel close.

Flooding the Kvaser CAN to USB dongle with multiple reads and writes in high frequency caused seemingly-random panics in the kernel. On further inspection, it seems the driver erroneously freed the to-be-transmitted packet upon getting tight on URBs and returning NETDEV_TX_BUSY, leading to invalid memory writes and double frees at a later point in time. Note: Finding no more URBs/transmit-contexts and returning NETDEV_TX_BUSY is a driver bug in and out of itself: it means that our start/stop queue flow control is broken. This patch only fixes the (buggy) error handling code; the root cause shall be fixed in a later commit. Acked-by: Olivier Sobrie <olivier@sobrie.be> Signed-off-by: Ahmed S.

Roger Quadros authored
use of regmap_read() and regmap_write() in c_can_hw_raminit_syscon() is not safe as the RAMINIT register can be shared between different drivers at least for TI SoCs. To make the modification atomic we switch to using regmap_update_bits(). regmap_update_bits() skips writing to the register if it's read content is the same as what is going to be written. This causes an issue for us when we need to clear the DONE bit with the initial condition START:0, DONE:1 as DONE bit must be written with 1 to clear it. So we defer the clearing of DONE bit to later when we set the START bit. There we are sure that START bit is changed from 0 to 1 so the write of 1 to already set DONE bit will happen.

During the CAN FD standardization process within the ISO it turned out that the failure detection capability has to be improved. The CAN in Automation organization (CiA) defined the already implemented CAN FD controllers as 'non-ISO' and the upcoming improved CAN FD controllers as 'ISO' compliant. See at http://www.can-cia.com/index.php?id=1937 Finally there will be three types of CAN FD controllers in the future: 1. ISO compliant (fixed) 2. non-ISO compliant (fixed, like the M_CAN IP v3.0.1 in m_can.c) 3. ISO/non-ISO CAN FD controllers (switchable, like the PEAK USB FD) So the current M_CAN driver for the M_CAN IP v3.0.1 has to expose its non-ISO implementation by setting the CAN_CTRLMODE_FD_NON_ISO ctrlmode at startup. As this bit cannot be switched at configuration time CAN_CTRLMODE_FD_NON_ISO must not be set in ctrlmode_supported of the current M_CAN driver.

When changing flags in the CAN drivers ctrlmode the provided new content has to be checked whether the bits are allowed to be changed. The bits that are to be changed are given as a bitfield in cm->mask. Therefore checking against cm->flags is wrong as the content can hold any kind of values. The iproute2 tool sets the bits in cm->mask and cm->flags depending on the detected command line options. To be robust against bogus user space applications additionally sanitize the provided flags with the provided mask.

When setting base_reachable_time or base_reachable_time_ms on a specific interface through sysctl or netlink, the reachable_time value is not updated. This means that neighbour entries will continue to be updated using the old value until it is recomputed in neigh_period_work (which recomputes the value every 300*HZ). On systems with HZ equal to 1000 for instance, it means 5mins before the change is effective. This patch changes this behavior by recomputing reachable_time after each set on base_reachable_time or base_reachable_time_ms. The new value will become effective the next time the neighbour's timer is triggered. Changes are made in two places: the netlink code for set and the sysctl handling code. For sysctl, I use a proc_handler. The ipv6 network code does provide its own handler but it already refreshes reachable_time correctly so it's not an issue. Any other user of neighbour which provide its own handlers must refresh reachable_time. Signed-off-by: Jean-Francois Remy <jeff@melix.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

On i.MX28, the MDIO bus is shared between the two FEC instances. The driver makes sure that the second FEC uses the MDIO bus of the first FEC. This is done conditionally if FEC_QUIRK_ENET_MAC is set. However, in newer designs, such as Vybrid or i.MX6SX, each FEC MAC has its own MDIO bus. Simply removing the quirk FEC_QUIRK_ENET_MAC is not an option since other logic, triggered by this quirk, is still needed. Furthermore, there are board designs which use the same MDIO bus for both PHY's even though the second bus would be available on the SoC side. Such layout are popular since it saves pins on SoC side. Due to the above quirk, those boards currently do work fine. The boards in the mainline tree with such a layout are: - Freescale Vybrid Tower with TWR-SER2 (vf610-twr.dts) - Freescale i.MX6 SoloX SDB Board (imx6sx-sdb.dts) This patch adds a new quirk FEC_QUIRK_SINGLE_MDIO for i.MX28, which makes sure that the MDIO bus of the first FEC is used in any case. However, the boards above do have a SoC with a MDIO bus for each FEC instance. But the PHY's are not connected in a 1:1 configuration. A proper device tree description is needed to allow the driver to figure out where to find its PHY. This patch fixes that shortcoming by adding a MDIO bus child node to the first FEC instance, along with the two PHY's on that bus, and making use of the phy-handle property to add a reference to the PHY's.
