      bridge: only provide proxy ARP when CONFIG_INET is enabled · d92cfdbb
      Arnd Bergmann authored
      When IPV4 support is disabled, we cannot call arp_send from
      the bridge code, which would result in a kernel link error:
      
      net/built-in.o: In function `br_handle_frame_finish':
      :(.text+0x59914): undefined reference to `arp_send'
      :(.text+0x59a50): undefined reference to `arp_tbl'
      
      This makes the newly added proxy ARP support in the bridge
      code depend on the CONFIG_INET symbol and lets the compiler
      optimize the code out to avoid the link error.

      neighbour: fix base_reachable_time(_ms) not effective immediatly when changed · 4bf6980d
      Jean-Francois Remy authored
      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.

      net: fec: fix MDIO bus assignement for dual fec SoC's · 3d125f9c
      Stefan Agner authored
      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.

      i40e: fix un-necessary Tx hangs · d91649f5
      Jesse Brandeburg authored
      When the driver was polling with interrupts disabled the hardware
      will occasionally not write back descriptors.  This patch causes
      the driver to detect this situation and force an interrupt to
      fire which will flush the stuck descriptor.  Does not conflict
      with napi because if we are already polling the napi_schedule is
      ignored.  Additionally the extra interrupts are rate limited, so
      don't cause a burden to the CPU.

      netfilter: conntrack: fix race between confirmation and flush · 8ca3f5e9
      Pablo Neira Ayuso authored
      Commit 5195c14c ("netfilter: conntrack: fix race in
      __nf_conntrack_confirm against get_next_corpse") aimed to resolve the
      race condition between the confirmation (packet path) and the flush
      command (from control plane). However, it introduced a crash when
      several packets race to add a new conntrack, which seems easier to
      reproduce when nf_queue is in place.
      
      Fix this race, in __nf_conntrack_confirm(), by removing the CT
      from unconfirmed list before checking the DYING bit. In case
      race occured, re-add the CT to the dying list
      
      This patch also changes the verdict from NF_ACCEPT to NF_DROP when
      we lose race. Basically, the confirmation happens for the first packet
      that we see in a flow. If you just invoked conntrack -F once (which
      should be the common case), then this is likely to be the first packet
      of the flow (unless you already called flush anytime soon in the past).
      This should be hard to trigger, but better drop this packet, otherwise
      we leave things in inconsistent state since the destination will likely
      reply to this packet, but it will find no conntrack, unless the origin
      retransmits.
      
      The change of the verdict has been discussed in:

      mm: propagate error from stack expansion even for guard page · fee7e49d
      Linus Torvalds authored
      Jay Foad reports that the address sanitizer test (asan) sometimes gets
      confused by a stack pointer that ends up being outside the stack vma
      that is reported by /proc/maps.
      
      This happens due to an interaction between RLIMIT_STACK and the guard
      page: when we do the guard page check, we ignore the potential error
      from the stack expansion, which effectively results in a missing guard
      page, since the expected stack expansion won't have been done.
      
      And since /proc/maps explicitly ignores the guard page (commit
      d7824370: "mm: fix up some user-visible effects of the stack guard
      page"), the stack pointer ends up being outside the reported stack area.
      
      This is the minimal patch: it just propagates the error.  It also
      effectively makes the guard page part of the stack limit, which in turn
      measn that the actual real stack is one page less than the stack limit.
      
      Let's see if anybody notices.  We could teach acct_stack_growth() to
      allow an extra page for a grow-up/grow-down stack in the rlimit test,
      but I don't want to add more complexity if it isn't needed.
