br_multicast_set_hash_max() is called from process context in net/bridge/br_sysfs_br.c by the sysfs store_hash_max() function. br_multicast_set_hash_max() calls spin_lock(&br->multicast_lock), which can deadlock the CPU if a softirq that also tries to take the same lock interrupts br_multicast_set_hash_max() while the lock is held . This can happen quite easily when any of the bridge multicast timers expire, which try to take the same lock. The fix here is to use spin_lock_bh(), preventing other softirqs from executing on this CPU. Steps to reproduce: 1. Create a bridge with several interfaces (I used 4). 2. Set the "multicast query interval" to a low number, like 2. 3. Enable the bridge as a multicast querier. 4. Repeatedly set the bridge hash_max parameter via sysfs. # brctl addbr br0 # brctl addif br0 eth1 eth2 eth3 eth4 # brctl setmcqi br0 2 # brctl setmcquerier br0 1 # while true ; do echo 4096 > /sys/class/net/br0/bridge/hash_max; done Signed-off-by:

Sathya Perla posted a patch trying to address following problem : <quote> The vxlan driver sets itself as the socket owner for all the TX flows it encapsulates (using vxlan_set_owner()) and assigns it's own skb destructor. This causes all tunneled traffic to land up on only one TXQ as all encapsulated skbs refer to the vxlan socket and not the original socket. Also, the vxlan skb destructor breaks some functionality for tunneled traffic like wmem accounting and as TCP small queues and FQ/pacing packet scheduler. </quote> I reworked Sathya patch and added some explanations. vxlan_xmit() can avoid one skb_clone()/dev_kfree_skb() pair and gain better drop monitor accuracy, by calling kfree_skb() when appropriate. The UDP socket used by vxlan to perform encapsulation of xmit packets do not need to be alive while packets leave vxlan code. Its better to keep original socket ownership to get proper feedback from qdisc and NIC layers. We use skb->sk to A) control amount of bytes/packets queued on behalf of a socket, but prior vxlan code did the skb->sk transfert without any limit/control on vxlan socket sk_sndbuf. B) security purposes (as selinux) or netfilter uses, and I do not think anything is prepared to handle vxlan stacked case in this area. By not changing ownership, vxlan tunnels behave like other tunnels. As Stephen mentioned, we might do the same change in L2TP. Reported-by:

TCP out_of_order_queue lock is not used, as queue manipulation happens with socket lock held and we therefore use the lockless skb queue routines (as __skb_queue_head()) We can use __skb_queue_head_init() instead of skb_queue_head_init() to make this more consistent. Signed-off-by:

It does not make sense to create an anycast address for an /128-prefix. Suppress it. As 32019e65 ("ipv6: Do not leave router anycast address for /127 prefixes.") shows we also may not leave them, because we could accidentally remove an anycast address the user has allocated or got added via another prefix.

The existing serial state notification handling expected older Option devices, having a hardcoded assumption that the Modem port was always USB interface #2. That isn't true for devices from the past few years. hso_serial_state_notification is a local cache of a USB Communications Interface Class SERIAL_STATE notification from the device, and the USB CDC specification (section 6.3, table 67 "Class-Specific Notifications") defines wIndex as the USB interface the event applies to. For hso devices this will always be the Modem port, as the Modem port is the only port which is set up to receive them by the driver. So instead of always expecting USB interface #2, instead validate the notification with the actual USB interface number of the Modem port. Signed-off-by:

Proportional Integral controller Enhanced (PIE) is a scheduler to address the bufferbloat problem. >From the IETF draft below: " Bufferbloat is a phenomenon where excess buffers in the network cause high latency and jitter. As more and more interactive applications (e.g. voice over IP, real time video streaming and financial transactions) run in the Internet, high latency and jitter degrade application performance. There is a pressing need to design intelligent queue management schemes that can control latency and jitter; and hence provide desirable quality of service to users. We present here a lightweight design, PIE(Proportional Integral controller Enhanced) that can effectively control the average queueing latency to a target value. Simulation results, theoretical analysis and Linux testbed results have shown that PIE can ensure low latency and achieve high link utilization under various congestion situations. The design does not require per-packet timestamp, so it incurs very small overhead and is simple enough to implement in both hardware and software. " Many thanks to Dave Taht for extensive feedback, reviews, testing and suggestions. Thanks also to Stephen Hemminger and Eric Dumazet for reviews and suggestions. Naeem Khademi and Dave Taht independently contributed to ECN support. For more information, please see technical paper about PIE in the IEEE Conference on High Performance Switching and Routing 2013.

From Arturo Borrero Gonzalez. * Fix wrong format in sscanf in nf_tables_set_alloc_name(), from Daniel Borkmann. * Add new queue expression to nf_tables. These comes with two previous patches to prepare this new feature, one to add mask in nf_tables_core to evaluate the queue verdict appropriately and another to refactor common code with xt_NFQUEUE, from Eric Leblond. * Do not hide nftables from Kconfig if nfnetlink is not enabled, also from Eric Leblond. * Add the reject expression to nf_tables, this adds the missing TCP RST support. It comes with an initial patch to refactor common code with xt_NFQUEUE, again from Eric Leblond. * Remove an unused variable assignment in nf_tables_dump_set(), from Michal Nazarewicz. * Remove the nft_meta_target code, now that Arturo added the set operation to the meta expression, from me. * Add help information for nf_tables to Kconfig, also from me. * Allow to dump all sets by specifying NFPROTO_UNSPEC, similar feature is available to other nf_tables objects, requested by Arturo, from me. * Expose the table usage counter, so we can know how many chains are using this table without dumping the list of chains, from Tomasz Bursztyka. ==================== Signed-off-by: -

Jeff Kirsher says: ==================== Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates This series contains updates to i40e only. Majority of this series contains patches from Greg and Mitch to fix up or add functionality to the PF/VF driver interactions. Notably, a fix for SR-IOV VF port VLAN which resolved the problem of port VLAN configurations not being persistent across VF driver loads and unloads and enable/disable of the feature. Also do not enable the default port on the VEB, which is designed only to bridge the PF to an Open vSwitch or bridge. Another fix to resolve a possible memory corruption condition where ARQ messages are written to random memory locations. Fix a problem where the 'ip link show' command would display stale link address information after the link address was set via the 'ip link set' command. Anjali provides several patches, one which saves information that can be used while cleaning the Tx ring and useful in detecting Tx hangs. Then provides a fixes to the admin queue shutdown function to ensure we are shutting down the queue in the shutdown path and ensure ASQ is alive before issuing the admin queue command. Shannon provides a fix for get/update vsi params where the incorrect struct was being used. ==================== Signed-off-by: -

Mitch Williams authored
When communicating with VF devices over the AQ, the FW refers to the VF by its global VF ID, not local the VF ID with reference to its parent PF. Since the global and local VF IDs are identical for PF 0, the code worked correctly on PF 0. However, we cannot just use global IDs throughout the code as most of the other references to the VF (VSI setup, register offsets, etc.) require the local VF ID. Instead, we just add or subtract our base VF ID when sending and receiving AQ messages. Change-Id: I92f4332b4876bc68b2f9af9ebf48761f63b6bd97 Signed-off-by:

When SR-IOV is disabled, the (now nonexistent) virtual function devices undergo a VFLR event. We don't need to handle this event because the VFs are gone, but we do need to tell the HW that they are complete. This fixes an issue with a phantom VFLR and broken VFs when SR-IOV is re-enabled.

Enabling the default port on the VEB causes all outgoing traffic from virtual functions to be copied to the physical function. The default port is only supposed to be used if you wish to bridge the physical function to a SW switch such as Open vSwitch or the Linux bridge. That allows the SW switch to route traffic to VMs that are not using a virtual function. Eventually we'll want to implement the ndo_fdb_add, ndo_fdb_del, and ndo_fdb_dump functions. The ndo_fdb_add function would set the default port on the VEB in those cases where the MAC/VLAN address filters have overflowed. Normally we would not want to use it.

Jeff Kirsher says: ==================== Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates This series contains updates to i40e only. Anjali provides two cleanups to remove unnecessary code and a fix to resolve debugfs dumping only half the NVM. Then provides a fix to ethtool NVM reads where shadow RAM was used instead of actual NVM reads. Jesse provides a couple of fixes, one removes custom i40e functions which duplicate existing kernel functionality. Second fixes constant cast issues by replacing __constant_htons with htons. Mitch provides a couple of fixes for the VF interfaces in i40e. First provides a fix to guard against VF message races with can cause a panic. Second fix reinitializes the buffer size each time we clean the ARQ, because subsequent messages can be truncated. Lastly adds functionality to enable/disable ICR 0 dynamically. Vasu adds a simple guard against multiple includes of the i40e_txrx.h file. Shannon provides a couple of fixes, first fix swaps a couple of lines around in the error handling if the allocation for the VSI array fails. Second fixes an issue where we try to free the q_vector that has not been setup which can panic the kernel. David provides a patch to save off the point to memory and the length of 2 structs used in the admin queue in order to store all info about allocated kernel memory. Neerav fixes ring allocation where allocation and clearing of rings for a VSI should be using the alloc_queue_pairs and not num_queue_pairs.
