l2_accel was checked for NULL at the top of fm10k_dfwd_del_station, and we return if it is not defined. Due to this, we already know it can't be null here so a separate check is meaningless.

This prevents a memory leak in fm10k_set_ringparams. The leak occurs because we go down, change ring parameters, and then come up. However, fm10k_down on its own is not clearing the Rx rings. Since fm10k_up assumes the rings are clean we basically drop the buffers and leak a bunch of memory. Eventually we hit dirty page faults and reboot the system. This issue does not occur elsewhere because other flows that involve fm10k_down go through fm10k_close which immediately called fm10k_free_all_rx_resources which properly cleans the rings.

This patch resolves a bug in the ts_tx_enqueue code responsible for a NULL pointer dereference and invalid access of the skb list. We incorrectly freed the actual skb we found instead of our copy. Thus the skb queue is essentially invalidated. Resolve this by freeing our clone in the cases where we did not add it to the queue. This also avoids the skb memory leak caused by failure to free the clone.

skb_complete_tx_timestamp is intended for use by PHY drivers which implement a different method of returning timestamps. This method is intended to be used after a PHY driver accepts a cloned packet via its phy_driver.txtstamp function. It is not correct to use in the standard ethernet driver such as fm10k. This patch fixes the following possible kernel panic.

This change fixes an issue with adding an invalid multicast address using the iproute2 tool (ip maddr add <MADDR> dev <dev>). The iproute2 tool and the kernel do not validate or filter the multicast addresses when adding them to the multicast list. Thus, when synchronizing this list with an invalid entry, the action will be aborted with an error since the fm10k driver currently validates the list. Consequently, multicast entries beyond the invalid one will not be processed and communicated with the switch via the mailbox. This change makes it so that invalid addresses will simply be skipped and allows synchronizing the full list to proceed.

Craig Gallek says: ==================== Socket destruction events via netlink sock_diag This series extends the netlink sock_diag interface to broadcast socket information as they are being destroyed. The current interface is poll based and can not be used to retreive information about sockets that are destroyed between poll intervals. Only inet sockets are broadcast in this implementation, but other families could easily be added as needed in the future. If this patch set is accepted, a follow-up patch to the ss utility in the iproute2 suite will also be submitted. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

This get_info handler will simply dispatch to the appropriate existing inet protocol handler. This patch also includes a new netlink attribute (INET_DIAG_PROTOCOL). This attribute is currently only used for multicast messages. Without this attribute, there is no way of knowing the IP protocol used by the socket information being broadcast. This attribute is not necessary in the 'dump' variant of this protocol (though it could easily be added) because dump requests are issued for specific family/protocol pairs.

Previously, there was no clear distinction between the inet protocols that used struct tcp_info to report information and those that didn't. This change adds a specific size attribute to the inet_diag_handler struct which defines these interfaces. This will make dispatching sock_diag get_info requests identical for all inet protocols in a following patch.

These groups will contain socket-destruction events for AF_INET/AF_INET6, IPPROTO_TCP/IPPROTO_UDP. Near the end of socket destruction, a check for listeners is performed. In the presence of a listener, rather than completely cleanup the socket, a unit of work will be added to a private work queue which will first broadcast information about the socket and then finish the cleanup operation.

Or Gerlitz says: ==================== mlx4 driver update (+ new VF ndo) This series from Eran and Hadar is further dealing with traffic counters in the mlx4 driver, this time mostly around SRIOV. We added a new ndo to read the VF counters through the PF netdev netlink infrastructure plus mlx4 implementation for that ndo. changes from V0: - applied feedback from John to use nested netlink encoding for the VF counters so we can extend it later - add handling of single ported VFs in the mlx4_en driver new ndo - avoid chopping the FW counters from 64 to 32 bits in mlx4_en PF flow ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

This is an infrastructure step to attach all the QPs opened from the IB driver to a counter in order to collect VF stats from the PF using those counters. If the port's type is Ethernet, the counter policy demands two counters per port (one for RoCE and one for Ethernet). The port default counter (allocated in mlx4_core) is used for the Ethernet netdev QPs and we allocate another counter for RoCE. If the port's traffic is Infiniband, the counter policy demands one counter per port, so it can use the port's default counter. Also, Add 'allocated' flag for each counter in order to clean it at unload.

All other counters are free and can be obtained on demand.

We need to delete from offload the device externally learnded fdbs when any one of these events happen: 1) Bridge ages out fdb. (When bridge is doing ageing vs. device doing ageing. If device is doing ageing, it would send SWITCHDEV_FDB_DEL directly). 2) STP state change flushes fdbs on port. 3) User uses sysfs interface to flush fdbs from bridge or bridge port: echo 1 >/sys/class/net/BR_DEV/bridge/flush echo 1 >/sys/class/net/BR_PORT/brport/flush 4) Offload driver send event SWITCHDEV_FDB_DEL to delete fdb entry. For rocker, we can now get called to delete fdb entry in wait and nowait contexts, so set NOWAIT flag when deleting fdb entry. Signed-off-by: Scott Feldman <sfeldma@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Scott Feldman says: ==================== rocker: revert back to support for nowait processes One of the items removed from the rocker driver in the Spring Cleanup patch series was the ability to mark processing in the driver as "no wait" for those contexts where we cannot sleep. Turns out, we have "no wait" contexts where we want to program the device and we don't want to defer the processing to a process context. So re-add the ROCKER_OP_FLAG_NOWAIT flag to mark such processes, and propagate flags to mem allocator and to the device cmd executor. With NOWAIT, mem allocs are GFP_ATOMIC and device cmds are queued to the device, but the driver will not wait (sleep) for the response back from the device. My bad for removing NOWAIT support in the first place; I thought we could swing non-sleep contexts to process context using a work queue, for example, but there is push-back to keep processing in original context. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

rocker->neigh_tbl_next_index is used to generate unique indices for neigh entries programmed into the device. The way new indices were generated was racy with the new prepare-commit transaction model. A simple fix here removes the race. The race was with two processes getting the same index, one process using prepare-commit, the other not: Proc A Proc B PREPARE phase get neigh_tbl_next_index NONE phase get neigh_tbl_next_index neigh_tbl_next_index++ COMMIT phase neigh_tbl_next_index++ Both A and B got the same index. The fix is to store and increment neigh_tbl_next_index in the PREPARE (or NONE) phase and use value in COMMIT phase: Proc A Proc B PREPARE phase get neigh_tbl_next_index neigh_tbl_next_index++ NONE phase get neigh_tbl_next_index neigh_tbl_next_index++ COMMIT phase // use value stashed in PREPARE phase Reported-by: Simon Horman <simon.horman@netronome.com> Signed-off-by: Scott Feldman <sfeldma@gmail.com> Reviewed-by: Simon Horman <simon.horman@netronome.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
