3cc4eadd56 net-rps: Fix brokeness causing OOO packets
[ Upstream commit baefa31db2 ]

In commit c445477d74 which adds aRFS to the kernel, the CPU
selected for RFS is not set correctly when CPU is changing.
This is causing OOO packets and probably other issues.

5891cb7c82 net: Fix skb_under_panic oops in neigh_resolve_output
[ Upstream commit e1f165032c ]

The retry loop in neigh_resolve_output() and neigh_connected_output()
call dev_hard_header() with out reseting the skb to network_header.
This causes the retry to fail with skb_under_panic. The fix is to
reset the network_header within the retry loop.

dd81262194 pktgen: fix crash when generating IPv6 packets
commit 5aa8b57200 upstream.

For IPv6, sizeof(struct ipv6hdr) = 40, thus the following
expression will result negative:

        datalen = pkt_dev->cur_pkt_size - 14 -
                  sizeof(struct ipv6hdr) - sizeof(struct udphdr) -
                  pkt_dev->pkt_overhead;

And,  the check "if (datalen < sizeof(struct pktgen_hdr))" will be
passed as "datalen" is promoted to unsigned, therefore will cause
a crash later.

This is a quick fix by checking if "datalen" is negative. The following
patch will increase the default value of 'min_pkt_size' for IPv6.

This bug should exist for a long time, so Cc -stable too.

70875a0484 net: do not disable sg for packets requiring no checksum
[ Upstream commit c0d680e577 ]

A change in a series of VLAN-related changes appears to have
inadvertently disabled the use of the scatter gather feature of
network cards for transmission of non-IP ethernet protocols like ATA
over Ethernet (AoE).  Below is a reference to the commit that
introduces a "harmonize_features" function that turns off scatter
gather when the NIC does not support hardware checksumming for the
ethernet protocol of an sk buff.

  commit f01a5236bd
  Author: Jesse Gross <jesse@nicira.com>
  Date:   Sun Jan 9 06:23:31 2011 +0000

      net offloading: Generalize netif_get_vlan_features().

The can_checksum_protocol function is not equipped to consider a
protocol that does not require checksumming.  Calling it for a
protocol that requires no checksum is inappropriate.

The patch below has harmonize_features call can_checksum_protocol when
the protocol needs a checksum, so that the network layer is not forced
to perform unnecessary skb linearization on the transmission of AoE
packets.  Unnecessary linearization results in decreased performance
and increased memory pressure, as reported here:

  http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-mm/msg15184.html

The problem has probably not been widely experienced yet, because
only recently has the kernel.org-distributed aoe driver acquired the
ability to use payloads of over a page in size, with the patchset
recently included in the mm tree:

  https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/8/28/140

The coraid.com-distributed aoe driver already could use payloads of
greater than a page in size, but its users generally do not use the
newest kernels.

74665a9b4f net: small bug on rxhash calculation
[ Upstream commit 6862234238 ]

In the current rxhash calculation function, while the
sorting of the ports/addrs is coherent (you get the
same rxhash for packets sharing the same 4-tuple, in
both directions), ports and addrs are sorted
independently. This implies packets from a connection
between the same addresses but crossed ports hash to
the same rxhash.

For example, traffic between A=S:l and B=L:s is hashed
(in both directions) from {L, S, {s, l}}. The same
rxhash is obtained for packets between C=S:s and D=L:l.

This patch ensures that you either swap both addrs and ports,
or you swap none. Traffic between A and B, and traffic
between C and D, get their rxhash from different sources
({L, S, {l, s}} for A<->B, and {L, S, {s, l}} for C<->D)

The patch is co-written with Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com>

Use standard timer/workqueue api to let system chose any cpu to perform
the allocation and netlink send.

Also avoid a loop if reset_per_cpu_data() cannot allocate memory :
use mod_timer() to wait 1/10 second before next try.

2c51de7f14 drop_monitor: prevent init path from scheduling on the wrong cpu
commit 4fdcfa1284 upstream.

I just noticed after some recent updates, that the init path for the drop
monitor protocol has a minor error.  drop monitor maintains a per cpu structure,
that gets initalized from a single cpu.  Normally this is fine, as the protocol
isn't in use yet, but I recently made a change that causes a failed skb
allocation to reschedule itself .  Given the current code, the implication is
that this workqueue reschedule will take place on the wrong cpu.  If drop
monitor is used early during the boot process, its possible that two cpus will
access a single per-cpu structure in parallel, possibly leading to data
corruption.

This patch fixes the situation, by storing the cpu number that a given instance
of this per-cpu data should be accessed from.  In the case of a need for a
reschedule, the cpu stored in the struct is assigned the rescheule, rather than
the currently executing cpu

Tested successfully by myself.

b2f89a7caf drop_monitor: Make updating data->skb smp safe
commit 3885ca785a upstream.

Eric Dumazet pointed out to me that the drop_monitor protocol has some holes in
its smp protections.  Specifically, its possible to replace data->skb while its
being written.  This patch corrects that by making data->skb an rcu protected
variable.  That will prevent it from being overwritten while a tracepoint is
modifying it.

It stems from holding a spinlock (trace_state_lock) while attempting to register
or unregister tracepoint hooks, making in_atomic() true in this context, leading
to the warning when the tracepoint calls might_sleep() while its taking a mutex.
Since we only use the trace_state_lock to prevent trace protocol state races, as
well as hardware stat list updates on an rcu write side, we can just convert the
spinlock to a mutex to avoid this problem.

7f8742aecd net: Allow driver to limit number of GSO segments per skb
[ Upstream commit 30b678d844 ]

A peer (or local user) may cause TCP to use a nominal MSS of as little
as 88 (actual MSS of 76 with timestamps).  Given that we have a
sufficiently prodigious local sender and the peer ACKs quickly enough,
it is nevertheless possible to grow the window for such a connection
to the point that we will try to send just under 64K at once.  This
results in a single skb that expands to 861 segments.

In some drivers with TSO support, such an skb will require hundreds of
DMA descriptors; a substantial fraction of a TX ring or even more than
a full ring.  The TX queue selected for the skb may stall and trigger
the TX watchdog repeatedly (since the problem skb will be retried
after the TX reset).  This particularly affects sfc, for which the
issue is designated as CVE-2012-3412.

Therefore:
1. Add the field net_device::gso_max_segs holding the device-specific
   limit.
2. In netif_skb_features(), if the number of segments is too high then
   mask out GSO features to force fall back to software GSO.

c94eb3f964 net: fix rtnetlink IFF_PROMISC and IFF_ALLMULTI handling
[ Upstream commit b1beb681cb ]

When device flags are set using rtnetlink, IFF_PROMISC and IFF_ALLMULTI
flags are handled specially. Function dev_change_flags sets IFF_PROMISC and
IFF_ALLMULTI bits in dev->gflags according to the passed value but
do_setlink passes a result of rtnl_dev_combine_flags which takes those bits
from dev->flags.

This can be easily trigerred by doing:

tcpdump -i eth0 &
ip l s up eth0

ip sets IFF_UP flag in ifi_flags and ifi_change, which is combined with
IFF_PROMISC by rtnl_dev_combine_flags, causing __dev_change_flags to set
IFF_PROMISC in gflags.

c5a07578be netpoll: fix netpoll_send_udp() bugs
[ Upstream commit 954fba0274 ]

Bogdan Hamciuc diagnosed and fixed following bug in netpoll_send_udp() :

"skb->len += len;" instead of "skb_put(skb, len);"

Meaning that _if_ a network driver needs to call skb_realloc_headroom(),
only packet headers would be copied, leaving garbage in the payload.

However the skb_realloc_headroom() must be avoided as much as possible
since it requires memory and netpoll tries hard to work even if memory
is exhausted (using a pool of preallocated skbs)

It appears netpoll_send_udp() reserved 16 bytes for the ethernet header,
which happens to work for typicall drivers but not all.

Right thing is to use LL_RESERVED_SPACE(dev)
(And also add dev->needed_tailroom of tailroom)

This patch combines both fixes.

Many thanks to Bogdan for raising this issue.

Hold the pktgen_thread_lock while splicing pktgen_threads, and test
pktgen_exiting in pktgen_device_event() to make unload faster.

4e133084e9 net: In unregister_netdevice_notifier unregister the netdevices.
[ Upstream commit 7d3d43dab4 ]

We already synthesize events in register_netdevice_notifier and synthesizing
events in unregister_netdevice_notifier allows to us remove the need for
special case cleanup code.

This change should be safe as it adds no new cases for existing callers
of unregiser_netdevice_notifier to handle.

0958c122f4 netns: do not leak net_generic data on failed init
[ Upstream commit b922934d01 ]

ops_init should free the net_generic data on
init failure and __register_pernet_operations should not
call ops_free when NET_NS is not enabled.
