Eric Nelson says: ==================== net: fec: updates to align IP header This patch series is the outcome of investigation into very high numbers of alignment faults on kernel 4.1.33 from the linux-fslc tree: https://github.com/freescale/linux-fslc/tree/4.1-1.0.x-imx The first two patches remove support for the receive accelerator (RACC) from the i.MX25 and i.MX27 SoCs which don't support the function. The third patch enables hardware alignment of the ethernet packet payload (and especially the IP header) to prevent alignment faults in the IP stack. Testing on i.MX6UL on the 4.1.33 kernel showed that this patch removed on the order of 70k alignment faults during a 100MiB transfer using wget. Testing on an i.MX6Q (SABRE Lite) board on net-next (4.8.0-rc7) showed a much more modest improvement from 10's of faults, and it's not clear why that's the case. ==================== Acked-by: Fugang Duan <fugang.duan@nxp.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

The FEC receive accelerator (RACC) supports shifting the data payload of received packets by 16-bits, which aligns the payload (IP header) on a 4-byte boundary, which is, if not required, at least strongly suggested by the Linux networking layer. Without this patch, a huge number of alignment faults will be taken by the IP stack, as seen in /proc/cpu/alignment: ~/$ cat /proc/cpu/alignment User: 0 System: 72645 (inet_gro_receive+0x104/0x27c) Skipped: 0 Half: 0 Word: 0 DWord: 0 Multi: 72645 User faults: 3 (fixup+warn) This patch was suggested by Andrew Lunn in this message to linux-netdev: http://marc.info/?l=linux-arm-kernel&m=147465452108384&w=2 and adapted from a patch by Russell King from 2014: http://git.arm.linux.org.uk/cgit/linux-arm.git/commit/?id=70d8a8aSigned-off-by: Eric Nelson <eric@nelint.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Since the commit below the ipmr/ip6mr rtnl_unicast() code uses the portid instead of the previous dst_pid which was copied from in_skb's portid. Since the skb is new the portid is 0 at that point so the packets are sent to the kernel and we get scheduling while atomic or a deadlock (depending on where it happens) by trying to acquire rtnl two times. Also since this is RTM_GETROUTE, it can be triggered by a normal user. Here's the sleeping while atomic trace: [ 7858.212557] BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at kernel/locking/mutex.c:620 [ 7858.212748] in_atomic(): 1, irqs_disabled(): 0, pid: 0, name: swapper/0 [ 7858.212881] 2 locks held by swapper/0/0: [ 7858.213013] #0: (((&mrt->ipmr_expire_timer))){+.-...}, at: [<ffffffff810fbbf5>] call_timer_fn+0x5/0x350 [ 7858.213422] #1: (mfc_unres_lock){+.....}, at: [<ffffffff8161e005>] ipmr_expire_process+0x25/0x130 [ 7858.213807] CPU: 0 PID: 0 Comm: swapper/0 Not tainted 4.8.0-rc7+ #179 [ 7858.213934] Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS 1.7.5-20140531_083030-gandalf 04/01/2014 [ 7858.214108] 0000000000000000 ffff88005b403c50 ffffffff813a7804 0000000000000000 [ 7858.214412] ffffffff81a1338e ffff88005b403c78 ffffffff810a4a72 ffffffff81a1338e [ 7858.214716] 000000000000026c 0000000000000000 ffff88005b403ca8 ffffffff810a4b9f [ 7858.215251] Call Trace: [ 7858.215412] <IRQ> [<ffffffff813a7804>] dump_stack+0x85/0xc1 [ 7858.215662] [<ffffffff810a4a72>] ___might_sleep+0x192/0x250 [ 7858.215868] [<ffffffff810a4b9f>] __might_sleep+0x6f/0x100 [ 7858.216072] [<ffffffff8165bea3>] mutex_lock_nested+0x33/0x4d0 [ 7858.216279] [<ffffffff815a7a5f>] ? netlink_lookup+0x25f/0x460 [ 7858.216487] [<ffffffff8157474b>] rtnetlink_rcv+0x1b/0x40 [ 7858.216687] [<ffffffff815a9a0c>] netlink_unicast+0x19c/0x260 [ 7858.216900] [<ffffffff81573c70>] rtnl_unicast+0x20/0x30 [ 7858.217128] [<ffffffff8161cd39>] ipmr_destroy_unres+0xa9/0xf0 [ 7858.217351] [<ffffffff8161e06f>] ipmr_expire_process+0x8f/0x130 [ 7858.217581] [<ffffffff8161dfe0>] ? ipmr_net_init+0x180/0x180 [ 7858.217785] [<ffffffff8161dfe0>] ? ipmr_net_init+0x180/0x180 [ 7858.217990] [<ffffffff810fbc95>] call_timer_fn+0xa5/0x350 [ 7858.218192] [<ffffffff810fbbf5>] ? call_timer_fn+0x5/0x350 [ 7858.218415] [<ffffffff8161dfe0>] ? ipmr_net_init+0x180/0x180 [ 7858.218656] [<ffffffff810fde10>] run_timer_softirq+0x260/0x640 [ 7858.218865] [<ffffffff8166379b>] ? __do_softirq+0xbb/0x54f [ 7858.219068] [<ffffffff816637c8>] __do_softirq+0xe8/0x54f [ 7858.219269] [<ffffffff8107a948>] irq_exit+0xb8/0xc0 [ 7858.219463] [<ffffffff81663452>] smp_apic_timer_interrupt+0x42/0x50 [ 7858.219678] [<ffffffff816625bc>] apic_timer_interrupt+0x8c/0xa0 [ 7858.219897] <EOI> [<ffffffff81055f16>] ? native_safe_halt+0x6/0x10 [ 7858.220165] [<ffffffff810d64dd>] ? trace_hardirqs_on+0xd/0x10 [ 7858.220373] [<ffffffff810298e3>] default_idle+0x23/0x190 [ 7858.220574] [<ffffffff8102a20f>] arch_cpu_idle+0xf/0x20 [ 7858.220790] [<ffffffff810c9f8c>] default_idle_call+0x4c/0x60 [ 7858.221016] [<ffffffff810ca33b>] cpu_startup_entry+0x39b/0x4d0 [ 7858.221257] [<ffffffff8164f995>] rest_init+0x135/0x140 [ 7858.221469] [<ffffffff81f83014>] start_kernel+0x50e/0x51b [ 7858.221670] [<ffffffff81f82120>] ? early_idt_handler_array+0x120/0x120 [ 7858.221894] [<ffffffff81f8243f>] x86_64_start_reservations+0x2a/0x2c [ 7858.222113] [<ffffffff81f8257c>] x86_64_start_kernel+0x13b/0x14a Fixes: 2942e900 ("[RTNETLINK]: Use rtnl_unicast() for rtnetlink unicasts") Signed-off-by: Nikolay Aleksandrov <nikolay@cumulusnetworks.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Similar to commit 3be07244 ("ip6_gre: fix flowi6_proto value in xmit path"), set flowi6_proto to IPPROTO_GRE for output route lookup. Up until now, ip6gre_xmit_other() has set flowi6_proto to a bogus value. This affected output route lookup for packets sent on an ip6gretap device in cases where routing was dependent on the value of flowi6_proto. Since the correct proto is already set in the tunnel flowi6 template via commit 252f3f5a ("ip6_gre: Set flowi6_proto as IPPROTO_GRE in xmit path."), simply delete the line setting the incorrect flowi6_proto value.

Douglas Caetano dos Santos authored
With TCP MTU probing enabled and offload TX checksumming disabled, tcp_mtu_probe() calculated the wrong checksum when a fragment being copied into the probe's SKB had an odd length. This was caused by the direct use of skb_copy_and_csum_bits() to calculate the checksum, as it pads the fragment being copied, if needed. When this fragment was not the last, a subsequent call used the previous checksum without considering this padding. The effect was a stale connection in one way, as even retransmissions wouldn't solve the problem, because the checksum was never recalculated for the full SKB length.

A timer was used to restart after the bus-off state, leading to a relatively large can_restart() executed in an interrupt context, which in turn sets up pinctrl. When this happens during system boot, there is a high probability of grabbing the pinctrl_list_mutex, which is locked already by the probe() of other device, making the kernel suspect a deadlock condition [1]. To resolve this issue, the restart_timer is replaced by a delayed work.

Since commit 1625f452, vti6 is broken, all input packets are dropped (LINUX_MIB_XFRMINNOSTATES is incremented). XFRM_TUNNEL_SKB_CB(skb)->tunnel.ip6 is set by vti6_rcv() before calling xfrm6_rcv()/xfrm6_rcv_spi(), thus we cannot set to NULL that value in xfrm6_rcv_spi(). A new function xfrm6_rcv_tnl() that enables to pass a value to xfrm6_rcv_spi() is added, so that xfrm6_rcv() is not touched (this function is used in several handlers).

When I introduced the lastuse member I made a subtle error because it was returned as an absolute value but that is meaningless to user-space as it doesn't allow to see how old exactly an entry is. Let's make it similar to how the bridge returns such values and make it relative to "now" (jiffies). This allows us to show the actual age of the entries and is much more useful (e.g. user-space daemons can age out entries, iproute2 can display the lastuse properly).

Switching iov_iter fault-in to multipages variants has exposed an old bug in underlying fault_in_multipages_...(); they break if the range passed to them wraps around. Normally access_ok() done by callers will prevent such (and it's a guaranteed EFAULT - ERR_PTR() values fall into such a range and they should not point to any valid objects). However, on architectures where userland and kernel live in different MMU contexts (e.g. s390) access_ok() is a no-op and on those a range with a wraparound can reach fault_in_multipages_...(). Since any wraparound means EFAULT there, the fix is trivial - turn those while (uaddr <= end) ... into if (unlikely(uaddr > end)) return -EFAULT; do ... while (uaddr <= end); Reported-by: Jan Stancek <jstancek@redhat.com> Tested-by: Jan Stancek <jstancek@redhat.com> Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org # v3.5+ Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
