The current code in the RX flow uses two sg entries for each incoming packet, the first one was for the IB headers and the second for the rest of the data, that causes two dma map/unmap and two allocations, and few more actions that were done at the data path. Use only one linear skb on each incoming packet, for the data (IB headers and payload), that reduces the packet processing in the data-path (only one skb, no frags, the first frag was not used anyway, less memory allocations) and the dma handling (only one dma map/unmap over each incoming packet instead of two map/unmap per each incoming packet). After commit 73d3fe6d ("gro: fix aggregation for skb using frag_list") from Eric Dumazet, we will get full aggregation for large packets. When running bandwidth tests before and after the (over the card's numa node), using "netperf -H 1.1.1.3 -T -t TCP_STREAM", the results before are ~12Gbs before and after ~16Gbs on my setup (Mellanox's ConnectX3).

We needed the mcast_mutex when we had to prevent the join completion callback from having the value it stored in mcast->mc overwritten by a delayed return from ib_sa_join_multicast. By storing the return of ib_sa_join_multicast in an intermediate variable, we prevent a delayed return from ib_sa_join_multicast overwriting the valid contents of mcast->mc, and we no longer need a mutex to force the join callback to run after the return of ib_sa_join_multicast. This allows us to do away with the mutex entirely and protect our critical sections with a just a spinlock instead. This is highly desirable as there were some places where we couldn't use a mutex because the code was not allowed to sleep, and so we were currently using a mix of mutex and spinlock to protect what we needed to protect. Now we only have a spin lock and the locking complexity is greatly reduced. Signed-off-by: Doug Ledford <dledford@redhat.com>

Allow the ipoib layer to attempt to join all outstanding multicast groups at once. The ib_sa layer will serialize multiple attempts to join the same group, but will process attempts to join different groups in parallel. Take advantage of that. In order to make this happen, change the mcast_join_thread to loop through all needed joins, sending a join request for each one that we still need to join. There are a few special cases we handle though: 1) Don't attempt to join anything but the broadcast group until the join of the broadcast group has succeeded. 2) No longer restart the join task at the end of completion handling. If we completed successfully, we are done. The join task now needs kicked either by mcast_send or mcast_restart_task or mcast_start_thread, but should not need started anytime else except when scheduling a backoff attempt to rejoin. 3) No longer use separate join/completion routines for regular and sendonly joins, pass them all through the same routine and just do the right thing based on the SENDONLY join flag. 4) Only try to join a SENDONLY join twice, then drop the packets and quit trying. We leave the mcast group in the list so that if we get a new packet, all that we have to do is queue up the packet and restart the join task and it will automatically try to join twice and then either send or flush the queue again.

Commit a9c8ba58 ("IPoIB: Fix usage of uninitialized multicast objects") added a new flag MCAST_JOIN_STARTED, but was not very strict in how it was used. We didn't always initialize the completion struct before we set the flag, and we didn't always call complete on the completion struct from all paths that complete it. And when we did complete it, sometimes we continued to touch the mcast entry after the completion, opening us up to possible use after free issues. This made it less than totally effective, and certainly made its use confusing. And in the flush function we would use the presence of this flag to signal that we should wait on the completion struct, but we never cleared this flag, ever. In order to make things clearer and aid in resolving the rtnl deadlock bug I've been chasing, I cleaned this up a bit. 1) Remove the MCAST_JOIN_STARTED flag entirely 2) Change MCAST_FLAG_BUSY so it now only means a join is in-flight 3) Test mcast->mc directly to see if we have completed ib_sa_join_multicast (using IS_ERR_OR_NULL) 4) Make sure that before setting MCAST_FLAG_BUSY we always initialize the mcast->done completion struct 5) Make sure that before calling complete(&mcast->done), we always clear the MCAST_FLAG_BUSY bit 6) Take the mcast_mutex before we call ib_sa_multicast_join and also take the mutex in our join callback. This forces ib_sa_multicast_join to return and set mcast->mc before we process the callback. This way, our callback can safely clear mcast->mc if there is an error on the join and we will do the right thing as a result in mcast_dev_flush. 7) Because we need the mutex to synchronize mcast->mc, we can no longer call mcast_sendonly_join directly from mcast_send and instead must add sendonly join processing to the mcast_join_task 8) Make MCAST_RUN mean that we have a working mcast subsystem, not that we have a running task. We know when we need to reschedule our join task thread and don't need a flag to tell us. 9) Add a helper for rescheduling the join task thread A number of different races are resolved with these changes. These races existed with the old MCAST_FLAG_BUSY usage, the MCAST_JOIN_STARTED flag was an attempt to address them, and while it helped, a determined effort could still trip things up. One race looks something like this: Thread 1 Thread 2 ib_sa_join_multicast (as part of running restart mcast task) alloc member call callback ifconfig ib0 down wait_for_completion callback call completes wait_for_completion in mcast_dev_flush completes mcast->mc is PTR_ERR_OR_NULL so we skip ib_sa_leave_multicast return from callback return from ib_sa_join_multicast set mcast->mc = return from ib_sa_multicast We now have a permanently unbalanced join/leave issue that trips up the refcounting in core/multicast.c Another like this: Thread 1 Thread 2 Thread 3 ib_sa_multicast_join ifconfig ib0 down priv->broadcast = NULL join_complete wait_for_completion mcast->mc is not yet set, so don't clear return from ib_sa_join_multicast and set mcast->mc complete return -EAGAIN (making mcast->mc invalid) call ib_sa_multicast_leave on invalid mcast->mc, hang forever By holding the mutex around ib_sa_multicast_join and taking the mutex early in the callback, we force mcast->mc to be valid at the time we run the callback. This allows us to clear mcast->mc if there is an error and the join is going to fail. We do this before we complete the mcast. In this way, mcast_dev_flush always sees consistent state in regards to mcast->mc membership at the time that the wait_for_completion() returns. Signed-off-by: Doug Ledford <dledford@redhat.com>

Various places in the IPoIB code had a deadlock related to flushing the ipoib workqueue. Now that we have per device workqueues and a specific flush workqueue, there is no longer a deadlock issue with flushing the device specific workqueues and we can do so unilaterally.

During my recent work on the rtnl lock deadlock in the IPoIB driver, I saw that even once I fixed the apparent races for a single device, as soon as that device had any children, new races popped up. It turns out that this is because no matter how well we protect against races on a single device, the fact that all devices use the same workqueue, and flush_workqueue() flushes *everything* from that workqueue means that we would also have to prevent all races between different devices (for instance, ipoib_mcast_restart_task on interface ib0 can race with ipoib_mcast_flush_dev on interface ib0.8002, resulting in a deadlock on the rtnl_lock). There are several possible solutions to this problem: Make carrier_on_task and mcast_restart_task try to take the rtnl for some set period of time and if they fail, then bail. This runs the real risk of dropping work on the floor, which can end up being its own separate kind of deadlock. Set some global flag in the driver that says some device is in the middle of going down, letting all tasks know to bail. Again, this can drop work on the floor. Or the method this patch attempts to use, which is when we bring an interface up, create a workqueue specifically for that interface, so that when we take it back down, we are flushing only those tasks associated with our interface. In addition, keep the global workqueue, but now limit it to only flush tasks. In this way, the flush tasks can always flush the device specific work queues without having deadlock issues.

We blindly assume that we can just take the rtnl lock and that will prevent races with downing this interface. Unfortunately, that's not the case. In ipoib_mcast_stop_thread() we will call flush_workqueue() in an attempt to clear out all remaining instances of ipoib_join_task. But, since this task is put on the same workqueue as the join task, the flush_workqueue waits on this thread too. But this thread is deadlocked on the rtnl lock. The better thing here is to use trylock and loop on that until we either get the lock or we see that FLAG_OPER_UP has been cleared, in which case we don't need to do anything anyway and we just return. While investigating which flag should be used, FLAG_ADMIN_UP or FLAG_OPER_UP, it was determined that FLAG_OPER_UP was the more appropriate flag to use. However, there was a mix of these two flags in use in the existing code. So while we check for that flag here as part of this race fix, also cleanup the two places that had used the less appropriate flag for their tests. Signed-off-by: Doug Ledford <dledford@redhat.com>

The ipoib_mcast_flush_dev routine is called with the rtnl_lock held and needs to keep it held. It also needs to call flush_workqueue() to flush out any outstanding work. In the past, we've had to try and make sure that we didn't flush out any outstanding join completions because they also wanted to grab rtnl_lock() and that would deadlock. It turns out that the only thing in the join completion handler that needs this lock can be safely moved to our carrier_on_task, thereby reducing the potential for the join completion code and the flush code to deadlock against each other.

In preparation for using per device work queues, we need to move the start of the neighbor thread task to after ipoib_ib_dev_init and move the destruction of the neighbor task to before ipoib_ib_dev_cleanup. Otherwise we will end up freeing our workqueue with work possibly still on it. Signed-off-by: Doug Ledford <dledford@redhat.com>

Create a an ipoib_flush_ah and ipoib_stop_ah routines to use at appropriate times to flush out all remaining ah entries before we shut the device down. Because neighbors and mcast entries can each have a reference on any given ah, we must make sure to free all of those first before our ah will actually have a 0 refcount and be able to be reaped. This factoring is needed in preparation for having per-device work queues. The original per-device workqueue code resulted in the following error message: <ibdev>: ib_dealloc_pd failed That error was tracked down to this issue. With the changes to which workqueues were flushed when, there were no flushes of the per device workqueue after the last ah's were freed, resulting in an attempt to dealloc the pd with outstanding resources still allocated. This code puts the explicit flushes in the needed places to avoid that problem. Signed-off-by: Doug Ledford <dledford@redhat.com>

All from Eric Biederman. 7) Support L3 forwarding offloading in switches, from Scott Feldman. 8) Collapse the LOCAL and MAIN ipv4 FIB tables when possible, to speed up route lookups even further. From Alexander Duyck. 9) Many improvements and bug fixes to the rhashtable implementation, from Herbert Xu and Thomas Graf. In particular, in the case where an rhashtable user bulk adds a large number of items into an empty table, we expand the table much more sanely. 10) Don't make the tcp_metrics hash table per-namespace, from Eric Biederman. 11) Extend EBPF to access SKB fields, from Alexei Starovoitov. 12) Split out new connection request sockets so that they can be established in the main hash table.

Pull ARM updates from Russell King: "Included in this update are both some long term fixes and some new features. Fixes: - An integer overflow in the calculation of ELF_ET_DYN_BASE. - Avoiding OOMs for high-order IOMMU allocations - SMP requires the data cache to be enabled for synchronisation primitives to work, so prevent the CPU_DCACHE_DISABLE option being visible on SMP builds. - A bug going back 10+ years in the noMMU ARM94* CPU support code, where it corrupts registers. Found by folk getting Linux running on their cameras. - Versatile Express needs an errata workaround enabled for CPU hot-unplug to work. Features: - Clean up module linker by handling out of range relocations separately from relocation cases we don't handle. - Fix a long term bug in the pci_mmap_page_range() code, which we hope won't impact userspace (we hope there's no users of the existing broken interface.) - Don't map DMA coherent allocations when we don't have a MMU. - Drop experimental status for SMP_ON_UP. - Warn when DT doesn't specify ePAPR mandatory cache properties. - Add documentation concerning how we find the start of physical memory for AUTO_ZRELADDR kernels, detailing why we have chosen the mask and the implications of changing it. - Updates from Ard Biesheuvel to address some issues with large kernels (such as allyesconfig) failing to link. - Allow hibernation to work on modern (ARMv7) CPUs - this appears to have never worked in the past on these CPUs. - Enable IRQ_SHOW_LEVEL, which changes the /proc/interrupts output format (hopefully without userspace breaking... let's hope that if it causes someone a problem, they tell us.) - Fix tegra-ahb DT offsets. - Rework ARM errata 643719 code (and ARMv7 flush_cache_louis()/ flush_dcache_all()) code to be more efficient, and enable this errata workaround by default for ARMv7+SMP CPUs. This complements the Versatile Express fix above. - Rework ARMv7 context code for errata 430973, so that only Cortex A8 CPUs are impacted by the branch target buffer flush when this errata is enabled. Also update the help text to indicate that all r1p* A8 CPUs are impacted. - Switch ARM to the generic show_mem() implementation, it conveys all the information which we were already reporting. - Prevent slow timer sources being used for udelay() - timers running at less than 1MHz are not useful for this, and can cause udelay() to return immediately, without any wait. Using such a slow timer is silly. - VDSO support for 32-bit ARM, mainly for gettimeofday() using the ARM architected timer. - Perf support for Scorpion performance monitoring units" vdso semantic conflict fixed up as per linux-next. * 'for-linus' of git://ftp.arm.linux.org.uk/~rmk/linux-arm: (52 commits) ARM: update errata 430973 documentation to cover Cortex A8 r1p* ARM: ensure delay timer has sufficient accuracy for delays ARM: switch to use the generic show_mem() implementation ARM: proc-v7: avoid errata 430973 workaround for non-Cortex A8 CPUs ARM: enable ARM errata 643719 workaround by default ARM: cache-v7: optimise test for Cortex A9 r0pX devices ARM: cache-v7: optimise branches in v7_flush_cache_louis ARM: cache-v7: consolidate initialisation of cache level index ARM: cache-v7: shift CLIDR to extract appropriate field before masking ARM: cache-v7: use movw/movt instructions ARM: allow 16-bit instructions in ALT_UP() ARM: proc-arm94*.S: fix setup function ARM: vexpress: fix CPU hotplug with CT9x4 tile.

Added support for netconsole. Fixed up statistic reporting so that we are only reporting from actual queues as well as display PF only stats for just the PF and not the VF. Also fixed an issue that when returning virtualization queues from the VF back to the PF, we were retaining the VF rate limiter. Fixed up the driver to use a separate workqueue, which helps reduce and stabilize latency between scheduling the work in our interrupt and actually performing the work. Fixed a bug where the VF tried to set a multicast address before requesting the required xcast mode. Fix VF multicast update since VFs were being improperly added to the switch's mutlicast group. The error stems from the fact that incorrect arguments were passed to the update_mc_addr(). Thanks to Alex Duyck for the extensive review. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

When task->comm is passed directly to audit_log_untrustedstring() without getting a copy or using the task_lock, there is a race that could happen that would output a NULL (\0) in the middle of the output string that would effectively truncate the rest of the report text after the comm= field in the audit log message, losing fields. Using get_task_comm() to get a copy while acquiring the task_lock to prevent this and to prevent the result from being a mixture of old and new values of comm would incur potentially unacceptable overhead, considering that the value can be influenced by userspace and therefore untrusted anyways. Copy the value before passing it to audit_log_untrustedstring() ensures that a local copy is used to calculate the length *and* subsequently printed. Even if this value contains a mix of old and new values, it will only calculate and copy up to the first NULL, preventing the rest of the audit log message being truncated. Use a second local copy of comm to avoid a race between the first and second calls to audit_log_untrustedstring() with comm.

Memtest is a simple feature which fills the memory with a given set of patterns and validates memory contents, if bad memory regions is detected it reserves them via memblock API. Since memblock API is widely used by other architectures this feature can be enabled outside of x86 world. This patch set promotes memtest to live under generic mm umbrella and enables memtest feature for arm/arm64. It was reported that this patch set was useful for tracking down an issue with some errant DMA on an arm64 platform. This patch (of 6): There is nothing platform dependent in the core memtest code, so other platforms might benefit from this feature too.

If __get_user_pages() is faulting a significant number of hugetlb pages, usually as the result of mmap(MAP_LOCKED), it can potentially allocate a very large amount of memory. If the process has been oom killed, this will cause a lot of memory to potentially deplete memory reserves. In the same way that commit 4779280d ("mm: make get_user_pages() interruptible") aborted for pending SIGKILLs when faulting non-hugetlb memory, based on the premise of commit 462e00cc ("oom: stop allocating user memory if TIF_MEMDIE is set"), hugetlb page faults now terminate when the process has been oom killed.

This fixes the "offset2lib" weakness in ASLR for arm, arm64, mips, powerpc, and x86. The problem is that if there is a leak of ASLR from the executable (ET_DYN), it means a leak of shared library offset as well (mmap), and vice versa. Further details and a PoC of this attack is available here: http://cybersecurity.upv.es/attacks/offset2lib/offset2lib.html With this patch, a PIE linked executable (ET_DYN) has its own ASLR region: $ ./show_mmaps_pie 54859ccd6000-54859ccd7000 r-xp ... /tmp/show_mmaps_pie 54859ced6000-54859ced7000 r--p ... /tmp/show_mmaps_pie 54859ced7000-54859ced8000 rw-p ... /tmp/show_mmaps_pie 7f75be764000-7f75be91f000 r-xp ... /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 7f75be91f000-7f75beb1f000 ---p ... /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 7f75beb1f000-7f75beb23000 r--p ... /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 7f75beb23000-7f75beb25000 rw-p ... /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 7f75beb25000-7f75beb2a000 rw-p ... 7f75beb2a000-7f75beb4d000 r-xp ... /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 7f75bed45000-7f75bed46000 rw-p ... 7f75bed46000-7f75bed47000 r-xp ... 7f75bed47000-7f75bed4c000 rw-p ... 7f75bed4c000-7f75bed4d000 r--p ... /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 7f75bed4d000-7f75bed4e000 rw-p ... /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 7f75bed4e000-7f75bed4f000 rw-p ... 7fffb3741000-7fffb3762000 rw-p ...

In preparation for moving ET_DYN randomization into the ELF loader (which requires a static ELF_ET_DYN_BASE), this redefines s390's existing ET_DYN randomization in a call to arch_mmap_rnd(). This refactoring results in the same ET_DYN randomization on s390.
