In IPv4 routing code, fib_nh and fib_nh_exception can hold pointers to struct rtable but they never increment dst->__refcnt. This leads to the need of the dst garbage collector because when user is done with this dst and calls dst_release(), it can only decrement dst->__refcnt and can not free the dst even it sees dst->__refcnt drops from 1 to 0 (unless DST_NOCACHE flag is set) because the routing code might still hold reference to it. And when the routing code tries to delete a route, it has to put the dst to the gc_list if dst->__refcnt is not yet 0 and have a gc thread running periodically to check on dst->__refcnt and finally to free dst when refcnt becomes 0. This patch increments dst->__refcnt when fib_nh/fib_nh_exception holds reference to this dst and properly release the dst when fib_nh/fib_nh_exception has been updated with a new dst. This patch is a preparation in order to fully get rid of dst gc later. Signed-off-by: Wei Wang <weiwan@google.com> Acked-by: Martin KaFai Lau <kafai@fb.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

This function should be called when removing routes from fib tree after the dst gc is no longer in use. We first mark DST_OBSOLETE_DEAD on this dst to make sure next dst_ops->check() fails and returns NULL. Secondly, as we no longer keep the gc_list, we need to properly release dst->dev right at the moment when the dst is removed from the fib/fib6 tree. It does the following: 1. change dst->input and output pointers to dst_discard/dst_dscard_out to discard all packets 2. replace dst->dev with loopback interface Signed-off-by: Wei Wang <weiwan@google.com> Acked-by: Martin KaFai Lau <kafai@fb.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

The current mechanism of freeing dst is a bit complicated. dst has its ref count and when user grabs the reference to the dst, the ref count is properly taken in most cases except in IPv4/IPv6/decnet/xfrm routing code due to some historic reasons. If the reference to dst is always taken properly, we should be able to simplify the logic in dst_release() to destroy dst when dst->__refcnt drops from 1 to 0. And this should be the only condition to determine if we can call dst_destroy(). And as dst is always ref counted, there is no need for a dst garbage list to hold the dst entries that already get removed by the routing code but are still held by other users. And the task to periodically check the list to free dst if ref count become 0 is also not needed anymore. This patch introduces a temporary flag DST_NOGC(no garbage collector). If it is set in the dst, dst_release() will call dst_destroy() when dst->__refcnt drops to 0. dst_hold_safe() will also check for this flag and do atomic_inc_not_zero() similar as DST_NOCACHE to avoid double free issue. This temporary flag is mainly used so that we can make the transition component by component without breaking other parts. This flag will be removed after all components are properly transitioned. This patch also introduces a new function dst_release_immediate() which destroys dst without waiting on the rcu when refcnt drops to 0. It will be used in later patches. Follow-up patches will correct all the places to properly take ref count on dst and mark DST_NOGC. dst_release() or dst_release_immediate() will be used to release the dst instead of dst_free() and its related functions. And final clean-up patch will remove the DST_NOGC flag. Signed-off-by: Wei Wang <weiwan@google.com> Acked-by: Martin KaFai Lau <kafai@fb.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Existing ipv4/6_blackhole_route() code generates a blackhole route with dst->dev pointing to the passed in dst->dev. It is not necessary to hold reference to the passed in dst->dev because the packets going through this route are dropped anyway. A loopback interface is good enough so that we don't need to worry about releasing this dst->dev when this dev is going down.

In udp_v4/6_early_demux() code, we try to hold dst->__refcnt for dst with DST_NOCACHE flag. This is because later in udp_sk_rx_dst_set() function, we will try to cache this dst in sk for connected case. However, a better way to achieve this is to not try to hold dst in early_demux(), but in udp_sk_rx_dst_set(), call dst_hold_safe(). This approach is also more consistant with how tcp is handling it. And it will make later changes simpler. Signed-off-by: Wei Wang <weiwan@google.com> Acked-by: Martin KaFai Lau <kafai@fb.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Similarly to how cross-chip VLAN works, define a bitmap of multicast group members for a switch, now including its DSA ports, so that multicast traffic can be sent to all switches of the fabric. A switch may drop the frames if no user port is a member. This brings support for multicast in a multi-chip environment. As of now, all switches of the fabric must support the multicast operations in order to program a single fabric port.

When booting into the kdump/kexec kernel, pHyp and vios are not prepared for the initialization crq request and a failover transport event is generated. This is not handled correctly. At this point in initialization the driver is still in the 'probing' state and cannot handle a full reset of the driver as is normally done for a failover transport event. To correct this we catch driver resets while still in the 'probing' state and return EAGAIN. This results in the driver tearing down the main crq and calling ibmvnic_init() again.

In the existing dn_route.c code, dn_route_output_slow() takes dst->__refcnt before calling dn_insert_route() while dn_route_input_slow() does not take dst->__refcnt before calling dn_insert_route(). This makes the whole routing code very buggy. In dn_dst_check_expire(), dnrt_free() is called when rt expires. This makes the routes inserted by dn_route_output_slow() not able to be freed as the refcnt is not released. In dn_dst_gc(), dnrt_drop() is called to release rt which could potentially cause the dst->__refcnt to be dropped to -1. In dn_run_flush(), dst_free() is called to release all the dst. Again, it makes the dst inserted by dn_route_output_slow() not able to be released and also, it does not wait on the rcu and could potentially cause crash in the path where other users still refer to this dst. This patch makes sure both input and output path do not take dst->__refcnt before calling dn_insert_route() and also makes sure dnrt_free()/dst_free() is called when removing dst from the hash table. The only difference between those 2 calls is that dnrt_free() waits on the rcu while dst_free() does not.

Each time we get an incoming SYN to the RDS_TCP_PORT, the TCP layer accepts the connection and then the rds_tcp_accept_one() callback is invoked to process the incoming connection. rds_tcp_accept_one() may reject the incoming syn for a number of reasons, e.g., commit 1a0e100f ("RDS: TCP: Force every connection to be initiated by numerically smaller IP address"), or because we are getting spammed by a malicious node that is triggering a flood of connection attempts to RDS_TCP_PORT. If the incoming syn is rejected, no data would have been sent on the TCP socket, and we do not need to be in TIME_WAIT state, so we set linger on the TCP socket before closing, thereby closing the socket efficiently with a RST.

Antoine Tenart says: ==================== net: mvmdio: add xMDIO xSMI support This series aims to add the xSMI support on the xMDIO bus to the mvmdio driver. The xSMI interface complies with the IEEE 802.3 clause 45 and is used by 10GbE devices. On 7k and 8k (as of now), such an interface is found and is used by Ethernet controllers. Patches 1-4 and 9 are cosmetic cleanups. Patches 5-7 are prerequisites to the xSMI support. Patches 8 and 10-11 add the xSMI support to the mvmdio driver, and a node is added both in the cp110 slave and master device trees. This was tested on an Armada 8040 mcbin, as well as on both the Armada 7040 DB and the Armada 8040 DB to ensure the SMI interface was still working. @Dave: patch 11 should go through the mvebu tree as asked by Gregory, thanks! ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

Martin KaFai Lau says: ==================== bpf: xdp: Report bpf_prog ID in IFLA_XDP This is the first usage of the new bpf_prog ID. It is for reporting the ID of a xdp_prog through netlink. It rides on the existing IFLA_XDP. This patch adds IFLA_XDP_PROG_ID for the bpf_prog ID reporting. It starts with changing the generic_xdp first. After that, the hardware driver is changed one by one. Jakub Kicinski mentioned that he will soon introduce XDP_ATTACHED_HW (on top of the existing XDP_ATTACHED_DRV and XDP_ATTACHED_SKB) and he is going to reuse the prog_attached for this purpose. Hence, this patch set keeps the prog_attached even though !!prog_id also implies there is xdp_prog attached. I have tested with generic_xdp, mlx4 and mlx5. v3: 1. Replace 'if' by '?' when checking the xdp_prog pointer as suggested by Jakub Kicinski (thanks!) v2: 1. Remove READ_ONCE since it is alredy under rtnl lock 2. Keep prog_attached in 'struct netdev_xdp' as requested by Jakub Kicinski. The existing prog_attached and the new prog_id are put under a struct for XDP_QUERY_PROG. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
