<title>net: rework SIOCGSTAMP ioctl handling</title>

<content type='text'>
The SIOCGSTAMP/SIOCGSTAMPNS ioctl commands are implemented by many
socket protocol handlers, and all of those end up calling the same
sock_get_timestamp()/sock_get_timestampns() helper functions, which
results in a lot of duplicate code.

With the introduction of 64-bit time_t on 32-bit architectures, this
gets worse, as we then need four different ioctl commands in each
socket protocol implementation.

To simplify that, let's add a new .gettstamp() operation in
struct proto_ops, and move ioctl implementation into the common
sock_ioctl()/compat_sock_ioctl_trans() functions that these all go
through.

We can reuse the sock_get_timestamp() implementation, but generalize
it so it can deal with both native and compat mode, as well as
timeval and timespec structures.

The Link Quality Indication data exposed by drivers could not be accessed from
userspace. Since this data is per-datagram received, it makes sense to make it
available to userspace application through the ancillary data mechanism in
recvmsg rather than through ioctls. This can be activated using the socket
option WPAN_WANTLQI under SOL_IEEE802154 protocol.

This LQI data is available in the ancillary data buffer under the SOL_IEEE802154
level as the type WPAN_LQI. The value is an unsigned byte indicating the link
quality with values ranging 0-255.

<title>Revert changes to convert to -&gt;poll_mask() and aio IOCB_CMD_POLL</title>

The poll() changes were not well thought out, and completely
unexplained.  They also caused a huge performance regression, because
"-&gt;poll()" was no longer a trivial file operation that just called down
to the underlying file operations, but instead did at least two indirect
calls.

Indirect calls are sadly slow now with the Spectre mitigation, but the
performance problem could at least be largely mitigated by changing the
"-&gt;get_poll_head()" operation to just have a per-file-descriptor pointer
to the poll head instead.  That gets rid of one of the new indirections.

But that doesn't fix the new complexity that is completely unwarranted
for the regular case.  The (undocumented) reason for the poll() changes
was some alleged AIO poll race fixing, but we don't make the common case
slower and more complex for some uncommon special case, so this all
really needs way more explanations and most likely a fundamental
redesign.

[ This revert is a revert of about 30 different commits, not reverted
  individually because that would just be unnecessarily messy  - Linus ]

<title>net: ieee802154: fix net_device reference release too early</title>

<id>a611c58b3d42a92e6b23423e166dd17c0c7fffce</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch fixes the kernel oops when release net_device reference in
advance. In function raw_sendmsg(i think the dgram_sendmsg has the same
problem), there is a race condition between dev_put and dev_queue_xmit
when the device is gong that maybe lead to dev_queue_ximt to see
an illegal net_device pointer.

My test kernel is 3.13.0-32 and because i am not have a real 802154
device, so i change lowpan_newlink function to this:

        /* find and hold real wpan device */
        real_dev = dev_get_by_index(src_net, nla_get_u32(tb[IFLA_LINK]));
        if (!real_dev)
                return -ENODEV;
//      if (real_dev-&gt;type != ARPHRD_IEEE802154) {
//              dev_put(real_dev);
//              return -EINVAL;
//      }
        lowpan_dev_info(dev)-&gt;real_dev = real_dev;
        lowpan_dev_info(dev)-&gt;fragment_tag = 0;
        mutex_init(&amp;lowpan_dev_info(dev)-&gt;dev_list_mtx);

Also, in order to simulate preempt, i change the raw_sendmsg function
to this:

        skb-&gt;dev = dev;
        skb-&gt;sk  = sk;
        skb-&gt;protocol = htons(ETH_P_IEEE802154);
        dev_put(dev);
        //simulate preempt
        schedule_timeout_uninterruptible(30 * HZ);
        err = dev_queue_xmit(skb);
        if (err &gt; 0)
                err = net_xmit_errno(err);

and this is my userspace test code named test_send_data:

int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
        char buf[127];
        int sockfd;
        sockfd = socket(AF_IEEE802154, SOCK_RAW, 0);
        if (sockfd &lt; 0) {
                printf("create sockfd error: %s\n", strerror(errno));
                return -1;
        }
        send(sockfd, buf, sizeof(buf), 0);
        return 0;
}

This is my test case:

In my opinion, there is always exist a chance that the device is gong
before call dev_queue_xmit.

I think the latest kernel is have the same problem and that
dev_put should be behind of the dev_queue_xmit.

This patch fixes the kernel oops when release net_device reference in
advance. In function raw_sendmsg(i think the dgram_sendmsg has the same
problem), there is a race condition between dev_put and dev_queue_xmit
when the device is gong that maybe lead to dev_queue_ximt to see
an illegal net_device pointer.

My test kernel is 3.13.0-32 and because i am not have a real 802154
device, so i change lowpan_newlink function to this:

        /* find and hold real wpan device */
        real_dev = dev_get_by_index(src_net, nla_get_u32(tb[IFLA_LINK]));
        if (!real_dev)
                return -ENODEV;
//      if (real_dev-&gt;type != ARPHRD_IEEE802154) {
//              dev_put(real_dev);
//              return -EINVAL;
//      }
        lowpan_dev_info(dev)-&gt;real_dev = real_dev;
        lowpan_dev_info(dev)-&gt;fragment_tag = 0;
        mutex_init(&amp;lowpan_dev_info(dev)-&gt;dev_list_mtx);

Also, in order to simulate preempt, i change the raw_sendmsg function
to this:

        skb-&gt;dev = dev;
        skb-&gt;sk  = sk;
        skb-&gt;protocol = htons(ETH_P_IEEE802154);
        dev_put(dev);
        //simulate preempt
        schedule_timeout_uninterruptible(30 * HZ);
        err = dev_queue_xmit(skb);
        if (err &gt; 0)
                err = net_xmit_errno(err);

and this is my userspace test code named test_send_data:

int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
        char buf[127];
        int sockfd;
        sockfd = socket(AF_IEEE802154, SOCK_RAW, 0);
        if (sockfd &lt; 0) {
                printf("create sockfd error: %s\n", strerror(errno));
                return -1;
        }
        send(sockfd, buf, sizeof(buf), 0);
        return 0;
}

This is my test case:

Explicit set skb-&gt;sk is needless, sock_alloc_send_skb is already set it.

Now that %z is standartised in C99 there is no reason to support %Z.
Unlike %L it doesn't even make format strings smaller.

Use BUILD_BUG_ON in a couple ATM drivers.

In case anyone didn't notice lib/vsprintf.o is about half of SLUB which
is in my opinion is quite an achievement.  Hopefully this patch inspires
someone else to trim vsprintf.c more.
