Testing has uncovered a failure case that is not handled properly. In the event that a login fails and we are not able to recover on the spot, we return 0 from do_reset, preventing any error recovery code from being triggered. Additionally, the state is set to "probed" meaning that when we are able to trigger the error recovery, the driver always comes up in the probed state. To handle the case properly, we need to return a failure code here and set the adapter state to the state that we entered the reset in indicating the state that we would like to come out of the recovery reset in.

Eric reported that reverting the patch that fixed and simplified IPv6 multipath routes means reverting back to invalid userspace notifications. eg., $ ip -6 route add 2001:db8:1::/64 nexthop dev eth0 nexthop dev eth1 only generates a single notification: 2001:db8:1::/64 dev eth0 metric 1024 pref medium While working on a fix for this problem I found another case that is just broken completely - a multipath route with a gateway followed by device followed by gateway: $ ip -6 ro add 2001:db8:103::/64 nexthop via 2001:db8:1::64 nexthop dev dummy2 nexthop via 2001:db8:3::64 In this case the device only route is dropped completely - no notification to userpsace but no addition to the FIB either: $ ip -6 ro ls 2001:db8:1::/64 dev dummy1 proto kernel metric 256 pref medium 2001:db8:2::/64 dev dummy2 proto kernel metric 256 pref medium 2001:db8:3::/64 dev dummy3 proto kernel metric 256 pref medium 2001:db8:103::/64 metric 1024 nexthop via 2001:db8:1::64 dev dummy1 weight 1 nexthop via 2001:db8:3::64 dev dummy3 weight 1 pref medium fe80::/64 dev dummy1 proto kernel metric 256 pref medium fe80::/64 dev dummy2 proto kernel metric 256 pref medium fe80::/64 dev dummy3 proto kernel metric 256 pref medium Really, IPv6 multipath is just FUBAR'ed beyond repair when it comes to device only routes, so do not allow it all. This change will break any scripts relying on the mpath api for insert, but I don't see any other way to handle the permutations. Besides, since the routes are added to the FIB as standalone (non-multipath) routes the kernel is not doing what the user requested, so it might as well tell the user that.

When a new rx packet arrives, the rx path will decide whether to reuse the remainder of the page or not according to one of the below conditions: 1. frag_info->frag_stride == PAGE_SIZE / 2 2. frags->page_offset + frag_info->frag_size > PAGE_SIZE; The first condition is no met for when XDP is set. For XDP, page_offset is always set to priv->rx_headroom which is XDP_PACKET_HEADROOM and frag_info->frag_size is around mtu size + some padding, still the 2nd release condition will hold since XDP_PACKET_HEADROOM + 1536 < PAGE_SIZE, as a result the page will not be released and will be _wrongly_ reused for next free rx descriptor. In XDP there is an assumption to have a page per packet and reuse can break such assumption and might cause packet data corruptions. Fix this by adding an extra condition (!priv->rx_headroom) to the 2nd case to avoid page reuse when XDP is set, since rx_headroom is set to 0 for non XDP setup and set to XDP_PACKET_HEADROOM for XDP setup. No additional cache line is required for the new condition. Fixes: 34db548b ("mlx4: add page recycling in receive path") Signed-off-by:

During a device failover, there may be latency between the loss of the current backing device and a notification from firmware that a failover has occurred. This latency can result in a large amount of error printouts as firmware returns outgoing traffic with a generic error code. These are not necessarily errors in this case as the firmware is busy swapping in a new backing adapter and is not ready to send packets yet. This patch reclassifies those error codes as warnings with an explanation that a failover may be pending. All other return codes will be considered errors. Signed-off-by:

Commit adc176c5 ("ipv6 addrconf: Implemented enhanced DAD (RFC7527)") added enhanced DAD with a nonce length of 6 bytes. However, RFC7527 doesn't specify the length of the nonce, other than being 6 + 8*k bytes, with integer k >= 0 (RFC3971 5.3.2). The current implementation simply assumes that the nonce will always be 6 bytes, but others systems are free to choose different sizes. If another system sends a nonce of different length but with the same 6 bytes prefix, it shouldn't be considered as the same nonce. Thus, check that the length of the received nonce is the same as the length we sent. Ugly scapy test script running on veth0: def loop(): pkt=sniff(iface="veth0", filter="icmp6", count=1) pkt = pkt[0] b = bytearray(pkt[Raw].load) b[1] += 1 b += b'\xde\xad\xbe\xef\xde\xad\xbe\xef' pkt[Raw].load = bytes(b) pkt[IPv6].plen += 8 # fixup checksum after modifying the payload pkt[IPv6].payload.cksum -= 0x3b44 if pkt[IPv6].payload.cksum < 0: pkt[IPv6].payload.cksum += 0xffff sendp(pkt, iface="veth0") This should result in DAD failure for any address added to veth0's peer, but is currently ignored.

In the zerocopy sendmsg() path, there are error checks to revert the zerocopy if we get any error code. syzkaller has discovered that tls_push_record can return -ECONNRESET, which is fatal, and happens after the point at which it is safe to revert the iter, as we've already passed the memory to do_tcp_sendpages. Previously this code could return -ENOMEM and we would want to revert the iter, but AFAIK this no longer returns ENOMEM after a447da7d ("tls: fix waitall behavior in tls_sw_recvmsg"), so we fail for all error codes.

My recent fix for dns_resolver_preparse() printing very long strings was incomplete, as shown by syzbot which still managed to hit the WARN_ONCE() in set_precision() by adding a crafted "dns_resolver" key: precision 50001 too large WARNING: CPU: 7 PID: 864 at lib/vsprintf.c:2164 vsnprintf+0x48a/0x5a0 The bug this time isn't just a printing bug, but also a logical error when multiple options ("#"-separated strings) are given in the key payload. Specifically, when separating an option string into name and value, if there is no value then the name is incorrectly considered to end at the end of the key payload, rather than the end of the current option. This bypasses validation of the option length, and also means that specifying multiple options is broken -- which presumably has gone unnoticed as there is currently only one valid option anyway. A similar problem also applied to option values, as the kstrtoul() when parsing the "dnserror" option will read past the end of the current option and into the next option. Fix these bugs by correctly computing the length of the option name and by copying the option value, null-terminated, into a temporary buffer.

This an IPv6 version patch of "ipv4/igmp: init group mode as INCLUDE when join source group". From RFC3810, part 6.1: If no per-interface state existed for that multicast address before the change (i.e., the change consisted of creating a new per-interface record), or if no state exists after the change (i.e., the change consisted of deleting a per-interface record), then the "non-existent" state is considered to have an INCLUDE filter mode and an empty source list. Which means a new multicast group should start with state IN(). Currently, for MLDv2 SSM JOIN_SOURCE_GROUP mode, we first call ipv6_sock_mc_join(), then ip6_mc_source(), which will trigger a TO_IN() message instead of ALLOW(). The issue was exposed by commit a052517a ("net/multicast: should not send source list records when have filter mode change"). Before this change, we sent both ALLOW(A) and TO_IN(A). Now, we only send TO_IN(A). Fix it by adding a new parameter to init group mode. Also add some wrapper functions to avoid changing too much code. v1 -> v2: In the first version I only cleared the group change record. But this is not enough. Because when a new group join, it will init as EXCLUDE and trigger a filter mode change in ip/ip6_mc_add_src(), which will clear all source addresses sf_crcount.

In v2 patch, I fixed it by directly initializing the mode to INCLUDE for SSM JOIN_SOURCE_GROUP. I also split the original patch into two separated patches for IPv4 and IPv6. There is also a difference between v4 and v6 version. For IPv6, when the interface goes down and up, we will send correct state change record with unspecified IPv6 address (::) with function ipv6_mc_up(). But after DAD is completed, we resend the change record TO_IN() in mld_send_initial_cr(). Fix it by sending ALLOW() for INCLUDE mode in mld_send_initial_cr().

Which means a new multicast group should start with state IN(). Function ip_mc_join_group() works correctly for IGMP ASM(Any-Source Multicast) mode. It adds a group with state EX() and inits crcount to mc_qrv, so the kernel will send a TO_EX() report message after adding group. But for IGMPv3 SSM(Source-specific multicast) JOIN_SOURCE_GROUP mode, we split the group joining into two steps. First we join the group like ASM, i.e. via ip_mc_join_group(). So the state changes from IN() to EX(). Then we add the source-specific address with INCLUDE mode. So the state changes from EX() to IN(A). Before the first step sends a group change record, we finished the second step. So we will only send the second change record. i.e. TO_IN(A). Regarding the RFC stands, we should actually send an ALLOW(A) message for SSM JOIN_SOURCE_GROUP as the state should mimic the 'IN() to IN(A)' transition. The issue was exposed by commit a052517a ("net/multicast: should not send source list records when have filter mode change"). Before this change, we used to send both ALLOW(A) and TO_IN(A).

Previously, when a data segment was sent an ACK was piggybacked on the data segment without generating a CA_EVENT_NON_DELAYED_ACK event to notify congestion control modules. So the DCTCP ca->delayed_ack_reserved flag could incorrectly stay set when in fact there were no delayed ACKs being reserved. This could result in sending a special ECN notification ACK that carries an older ACK sequence, when in fact there was no need for such an ACK. DCTCP keeps track of the delayed ACK status with its own separate state ca->delayed_ack_reserved. Previously it may accidentally cancel the delayed ACK without updating this field upon sending a special ACK that carries a older ACK sequence. This inconsistency would lead to DCTCP receiver never acknowledging the latest data until the sender times out and retry in some cases.

Commit 8b700862 ("net: Don't copy pfmemalloc flag in __copy_skb_header()") introduced a different handling for the pfmemalloc flag in copy and clone paths. In __skb_clone(), now, the flag is set only if it was set in the original skb, but not cleared if it wasn't. This is wrong and might lead to socket buffers being flagged with pfmemalloc even if the skb data wasn't allocated from pfmemalloc reserves. Copy the flag instead of ORing it. Reported-by:

Magnus Karlsson says: ==================== This patch set adjusts the AF_XDP TX error reporting so that it becomes consistent between copy mode and zero-copy. First some background: Copy-mode for TX uses the SKB path in which the action of sending the packet is performed from process context using the sendmsg syscall. Completions are usually done asynchronously from NAPI mode by using a TX interrupt. In this mode, send errors can be returned back through the syscall. In zero-copy mode both the sending of the packet and the completions are done asynchronously from NAPI mode for performance reasons. In this mode, the sendmsg syscall only makes sure that the TX NAPI loop will be run that performs both the actions of sending and completing. In this mode it is therefore not possible to return errors through the sendmsg syscall as the sending is done from the NAPI loop. Note that it is possible to implement a synchronous send with our API, but in our benchmarks that made the TX performance drop by nearly half due to synchronization requirements and cache line bouncing. But for some netdevs this might be preferable so let us leave it up to the implementation to decide. The problem is that the current code base returns some errors in copy-mode that are not possible to return in zero-copy mode. This patch set aligns them so that the two modes always return the same error code. We achieve this by removing some of the errors returned by sendmsg in copy-mode (and in one case adding an error message for zero-copy mode) and offering alternative error detection methods that are consistent between the two modes. The structure of the patch set is as follows: Patch 1: removes the ENXIO return code from copy-mode when someone has forcefully changed the number of queues on the device so that the queue bound to the socket is no longer available. Just silently stop sending anything as in zero-copy mode. Patch 2: stop returning EAGAIN in copy mode when the completion queue is full as zero-copy does not do this. Instead this situation can be detected by comparing the head and tail pointers of the completion queue in both modes. In any case, EAGAIN was not the correct error code here since no amount of calling sendmsg will solve the problem. Only consuming one or more messages on the completion queue will fix this. Patch 3: Always return ENOBUFS from sendmsg if there is no TX queue configured. This was not the case for zero-copy mode. Patch 4: stop returning EMSGSIZE when the size of the packet is larger than the MTU. Just send it to the device so that it will drop it as in zero-copy mode. Note that copy-mode can still return EAGAIN in certain circumstances, but as these conditions cannot occur in zero-copy mode it is fine for copy-mode to return them. ==================== Acked-by:

This patch makes sure ENOBUFS is always returned from sendmsg if there is no TX queue configured. This was not the case for zero-copy mode. With this patch this error reporting is consistent between copy mode and zero-copy mode. Fixes: ac98d8aa ("xsk: wire upp Tx zero-copy functions") Signed-off-by:

This patch stops returning EAGAIN in TX copy mode when the completion queue is full as zero-copy does not do this. Instead this situation can be detected by comparing the head and tail pointers of the completion queue in both modes. In any case, EAGAIN was not the correct error code here since no amount of calling sendmsg will solve the problem. Only consuming one or more messages on the completion queue will fix this. With this patch, the error reporting becomes consistent between copy mode and zero-copy mode. Fixes: 35fcde7f ("xsk: support for Tx") Signed-off-by:

This patch removes the ENXIO return code from TX copy-mode when someone has forcefully changed the number of queues on the device so that the queue bound to the socket is no longer available. Just silently stop sending anything as in zero-copy mode so the error reporting gets consistent between the two modes. Fixes: 35fcde7f ("xsk: support for Tx") Signed-off-by:

The udpgso benchmark compares various configurations of UDP and TCP. Including one that is not upstream, udp zerocopy. This is a leftover from the earlier RFC patchset. The test is part of kselftests and run in continuous spinners. Remove the failing case to make the test start passing. Fixes: 3a687bef ("selftests: udp gso benchmark") Reported-by:

If variable length link layer headers result in a packet shorter than dev->hard_header_len, reset the network header offset. Else skb->mac_len may exceed skb->len after skb_mac_reset_len. packet_sendmsg_spkt already has similar logic.

When pulling the NSH header in nsh_gso_segment, set the mac length based on the encapsulated packet type. skb_reset_mac_len computes an offset to the network header, which here still points to the outer packet: > skb_reset_network_header(skb); > [...] > __skb_pull(skb, nsh_len); > skb_reset_mac_header(skb); // now mac hdr starts nsh_len == 8B after net hdr > skb_reset_mac_len(skb); // mac len = net hdr - mac hdr == (u16) -8 == 65528 > [..] > skb_mac_gso_segment(skb, ..)

The pfmemalloc flag indicates that the skb was allocated from the PFMEMALLOC reserves, and the flag is currently copied on skb copy and clone. However, an skb copied from an skb flagged with pfmemalloc wasn't necessarily allocated from PFMEMALLOC reserves, and on the other hand an skb allocated that way might be copied from an skb that wasn't. So we should not copy the flag on skb copy, and rather decide whether to allow an skb to be associated with sockets unrelated to page reclaim depending only on how it was allocated. Move the pfmemalloc flag before headers_start[0] using an existing 1-bit hole, so that __copy_skb_header() doesn't copy it. When cloning, we'll now take care of this flag explicitly, contravening to the warning comment of __skb_clone(). While at it, restore the newline usage introduced by commit b1937227 ("net: reorganize sk_buff for faster __copy_skb_header()") to visually separate bytes used in bitfields after headers_start[0], that was gone after commit a9e419dc ("netfilter: merge ctinfo into nfct pointer storage area"), and describe the pfmemalloc flag in the kernel-doc structure comment. This doesn't change the size of sk_buff or cacheline boundaries, but consolidates the 15 bits hole before tc_index into a 2 bytes hole before csum, that could now be filled more easily. Reported-by:
