Currently if the MSI-X vector limit is reached the sideband flow director gets disabled. A bit too early to make that decision, as vectors may get re-distributed. So move the check further back.

The driver allocates 1 vector per CPU thread and the current hardware limit for vectors is 129 per PF. On systems with 128 or more threads this currently means all vectors are used by the PF leaving no room for additional features like VMDq, iWARP, etc... The code that should redistribute the vectors in this case is broken and never triggers. Fixed the code so that it actually triggers if the hardware limit is reached and adjust the number of queue pairs accordingly. Also the number of initially requested iWARP vectors was not properly saved when the vector limit was reached, and therefore always zero. Comparison with debug statement. Before: i40e 0000:2d:00.0: VMDq disabled, not enough MSI-X vectors i40e 0000:2d:00.0: IWARP disabled, not enough MSI-X vectors i40e 00.0 MSI-X vector distribution: PF 128, VMDq 0, FDSB 0, iWARP 0 After: i40e 0000:2d:00.0: MSI-X vector limit reached, attempting to redistribute vectors i40e 00.0 MSI-X vector distribution: PF 78, VMDq 8, FDSB 0, iWARP 42 Signed-off-by: Stefan Assmann <sassmann@kpanic.de> Tested-by: Andrew Bowers <andrewx.bowers@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Kirsher <jeffrey.t.kirsher@intel.com>

skb_vlan_pop/push were too generic, trying to support the cases where skb->data is at mac header, and cases where skb->data is arbitrarily elsewhere. Supporting an arbitrary skb->data was complex and bogus: - It failed to unwind skb->data to its original location post actual pop/push. (Also, semantic is not well defined for unwinding: If data was into the eth header, need to use same offset from start; But if data was at network header or beyond, need to adjust the original offset according to the push/pull) - It mangled the rcsum post actual push/pop, without taking into account that the eth bytes might already have been pulled out of the csum. Most callers (ovs, bpf) already had their skb->data at mac_header upon invoking skb_vlan_pop/push. Last caller that failed to do so (act_vlan) has been recently fixed. Therefore, to simplify things, no longer support arbitrary skb->data inputs for skb_vlan_pop/push(). skb->data is expected to be exactly at mac_header; WARN otherwise.

Generic skb_vlan_push/skb_vlan_pop functions don't properly handle the case where the input skb data pointer does not point at the mac header: - They're doing push/pop, but fail to properly unwind data back to its original location. For example, in the skb_vlan_push case, any subsequent 'skb_push(skb, skb->mac_len)' calls make the skb->data point 4 bytes BEFORE start of frame, leading to bogus frames that may be transmitted. - They update rcsum per the added/removed 4 bytes tag. Alas if data is originally after the vlan/eth headers, then these bytes were already pulled out of the csum. OTOH calling skb_vlan_push/skb_vlan_pop with skb->data at mac_header present no issues. act_vlan is the only caller to skb_vlan_*() that has skb->data pointing at network header (upon ingress). Other calles (ovs, bpf) already adjust skb->data at mac_header. This patch fixes act_vlan to point to the mac_header prior calling skb_vlan_*() functions, as other callers do.

Merge tag 'rxrpc-rewrite-20160930' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dhowells/linux-fs David Howells says: ==================== rxrpc: More fixes and adjustments This set of patches contains some more fixes and adjustments: (1) Actually display the retransmission indication previously added to the tx_data trace. (2) Switch to Congestion Avoidance mode properly at cwnd==ssthresh rather than relying on detection during an overshoot and correction. (3) Reduce ssthresh to the peer's declared receive window. (4) The offset field in rxrpc_skb_priv can be dispensed with and the error field is no longer used. Get rid of them. (5) Keep the call timeouts as ktimes rather than jiffies to make it easier to deal with RTT-based timeout values in future. Rounding to jiffies is still necessary when the system timer is set. (6) Fix the call timer handling to avoid retriggering of expired timeout actions. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

The commit 879c7220 ("net: pktgen: Observe needed_headroom of the device") increased the 'pkt_overhead' field value by LL_RESERVED_SPACE. As a side effect the generated packet size, computed as: /* Eth + IPh + UDPh + mpls */ datalen = pkt_dev->cur_pkt_size - 14 - 20 - 8 - pkt_dev->pkt_overhead; is decreased by the same value. The above changed slightly the behavior of existing pktgen users, and made the procfs interface somewhat inconsistent. Fix it by restoring the previous pkt_overhead value and using LL_RESERVED_SPACE as extralen in skb allocation. Also, change pktgen_alloc_skb() to only partially reserve the headroom to allow the caller to prefetch from ll header start. v1 -> v2: - fixed some typos in the comments Fixes: 879c7220 ("net: pktgen: Observe needed_headroom of the device") Suggested-by: Ben Greear <greearb@candelatech.com> Signed-off-by: Paolo Abeni <pabeni@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

If the mac address origin is not dt, you can only safely assign a mac address after "link up" of the device. If the link is off the clocks are disabled and because of issues assigning registers when clocks are off the new mac address cannot be written in .ndo_set_mac_address() on some soc's.

This is an effective no-op in terms of user observable behaviour. By preventing the overwrite of non-null extra1/extra2 fields in addrconf_sysctl() we can enable the use of proc_dointvec_minmax(). This allows us to eliminate the constant min/max (1..255) trampoline function that is addrconf_sysctl_hop_limit(). This is nice because it simplifies the code, and allows future sysctls with constant min/max limits to also not require trampolines. We still can't eliminate the trampoline for mtu because it isn't actually a constant (it depends on other tunables of the device) and thus requires at-write-time logic to enforce range.

If the bootloader uses the long descriptor format and jumps to kernel decompressor code, TTBCR may not be in a right state. Before enabling the MMU, it is required to clear the TTBCR.PD0 field to use TTBR0 for translation table walks.

When discovering the number of VPEs per core, smp_num_siblings will be incorrect for kernels built without support for the MIPS MultiThreading (MT) ASE running on systems which implement said ASE. This leads to accesses to VPEs in secondary cores being performed incorrectly since mips_cm_vp_id calculates the wrong ID to write to the local "other" registers. Fix this by examining the number of VPEs in the core as reported by the CM. This patch presumes that the number of VPEs will be the same in each core of the system. As this path only applies to systems with CM version 2.5 or lower, and this property is true of all such known systems, this is likely to be fine but is described in a comment for good measure.

The capability check should not be audited since it is only being used to determine the inode permissions. A failed check does not indicate a violation of security policy but, when an LSM is enabled, a denial audit message was being generated. The denial audit message caused confusion for some application authors because root-running Go applications always triggered the denial. To prevent this confusion, the capability check in net_ctl_permissions() is switched to the noaudit variant.

In this testcase, we create a 2*CLUSTER_SIZE file and mmap() on it; there are 2 process repeatedly performing the following operations respectively: one is doing memset(mmaped_addr + 2*CLUSTER_SIZE - 1, 'a', 1), while the another is playing ftruncate(fd, 2*CLUSTER_SIZE) and then ftruncate(fd, CLUSTER_SIZE) again and again. This is the backtrace when the deadlock happens: __wait_on_bit_lock+0x50/0xa0 __lock_page+0xb7/0xc0 ocfs2_write_begin_nolock+0x163f/0x1790 [ocfs2] ocfs2_page_mkwrite+0x1c7/0x2a0 [ocfs2] do_page_mkwrite+0x66/0xc0 handle_mm_fault+0x685/0x1350 __do_page_fault+0x1d8/0x4d0 trace_do_page_fault+0x37/0xf0 do_async_page_fault+0x19/0x70 async_page_fault+0x28/0x30 In ocfs2_write_begin_nolock(), we first grab the pages and then allocate disk space for this write; ocfs2_try_to_free_truncate_log() will be called if -ENOSPC is returned; if we're lucky to get enough clusters, which is usually the case, we start over again. But in ocfs2_free_write_ctxt() the target page isn't unlocked, so we will deadlock when trying to grab the target page again. Also, -ENOMEM might be returned in ocfs2_grab_pages_for_write(). Another deadlock will happen in __do_page_mkwrite() if ocfs2_page_mkwrite() returns non-VM_FAULT_LOCKED, and along with a locked target page. These two errors fail on the same path, so fix them by unlocking the target page manually before ocfs2_free_write_ctxt(). Jan Kara helps me clear out the JBD2 part, and suggest the hint for root cause. Changes since v1: 1. Also put ENOMEM error case into consideration.

Antonio reports the following crash when using fuse under memory pressure: kernel BUG at /build/linux-a2WvEb/linux-4.4.0/mm/workingset.c:346! invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] SMP Modules linked in: all of them CPU: 2 PID: 63 Comm: kswapd0 Not tainted 4.4.0-36-generic #55-Ubuntu Hardware name: System manufacturer System Product Name/P8H67-M PRO, BIOS 3904 04/27/2013 task: ffff88040cae6040 ti: ffff880407488000 task.ti: ffff880407488000 RIP: shadow_lru_isolate+0x181/0x190 Call Trace: __list_lru_walk_one.isra.3+0x8f/0x130 list_lru_walk_one+0x23/0x30 scan_shadow_nodes+0x34/0x50 shrink_slab.part.40+0x1ed/0x3d0 shrink_zone+0x2ca/0x2e0 kswapd+0x51e/0x990 kthread+0xd8/0xf0 ret_from_fork+0x3f/0x70 which corresponds to the following sanity check in the shadow node tracking: BUG_ON(node->count & RADIX_TREE_COUNT_MASK); The workingset code tracks radix tree nodes that exclusively contain shadow entries of evicted pages in them, and this (somewhat obscure) line checks whether there are real pages left that would interfere with reclaim of the radix tree node under memory pressure. While discussing ways how fuse might sneak pages into the radix tree past the workingset code, Miklos pointed to replace_page_cache_page(), and indeed there is a problem there: it properly accounts for the old page being removed - __delete_from_page_cache() does that - but then does a raw raw radix_tree_insert(), not accounting for the replacement page. Eventually the page count bits in node->count underflow while leaving the node incorrectly linked to the shadow node LRU. To address this, make sure replace_page_cache_page() uses the tracked page insertion code, page_cache_tree_insert(). This fixes the page accounting and makes sure page-containing nodes are properly unlinked from the shadow node LRU again. Also, make the sanity checks a bit less obscure by using the helpers for checking the number of pages and shadows in a radix tree node.
