2016-11-01T19:23:58+00:00

The underlying transport releases the page pointed to by rq_buffer
during xprt_rdma_bc_send_request. When the backchannel reply arrives,
rq_rbuffer then points to freed memory.

tipc: fix broadcast link synchronization problem

2016-10-29T21:21:09+00:00

In commit 2d18ac4ba745 ("tipc: extend broadcast link initialization
criteria") we tried to fix a problem with the initial synchronization
of broadcast link acknowledge values. Unfortunately that solution is
not sufficient to solve the issue.

We have seen it happen that LINK_PROTOCOL/STATE packets with a valid
non-zero unicast acknowledge number may bypass BCAST_PROTOCOL
initialization, NAME_DISTRIBUTOR and other STATE packets with invalid
broadcast acknowledge numbers, leading to premature opening of the
broadcast link. When the bypassed packets finally arrive, they are
inadvertently accepted, and the already correctly initialized
acknowledge number in the broadcast receive link is overwritten by
the invalid (zero) value of the said packets. After this the broadcast
link goes stale.

We now fix this by marking the packets where we know the acknowledge
value is or may be invalid, and then ignoring the acks from those.

To this purpose, we claim an unused bit in the header to indicate that
the value is invalid. We set the bit to 1 in the initial BCAST_PROTOCOL
synchronization packet and all initial ("bulk") NAME_DISTRIBUTOR
packets, plus those LINK_PROTOCOL packets sent out before the broadcast
links are fully synchronized.

This minor protocol update is fully backwards compatible.

rds: debug messages are enabled by default

2016-10-29T19:55:57+00:00

rds use Kconfig option called "RDS_DEBUG" to enable rds debug messages.
This option cause the rds Makefile to add -DDEBUG to the rds gcc command
line.

When CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG is enabled, the "DEBUG" macro is used by
include/linux/dynamic_debug.h to decide if dynamic debug prints should
be sent by default to the kernel log.

rds should not enable this macro for production builds. rds dynamic
debug work as expected follow this fix.

packet: on direct_xmit, limit tso and csum to supported devices

2016-10-29T19:02:15+00:00

When transmitting on a packet socket with PACKET_VNET_HDR and
PACKET_QDISC_BYPASS, validate device support for features requested
in vnet_hdr.

Drop TSO packets sent to devices that do not support TSO or have the
feature disabled. Note that the latter currently do process those
packets correctly, regardless of not advertising the feature.

Because of SKB_GSO_DODGY, it is not sufficient to test device features
with netif_needs_gso. Full validate_xmit_skb is needed.

Switch to software checksum for non-TSO packets that request checksum
offload if that device feature is unsupported or disabled. Note that
similar to the TSO case, device drivers may perform checksum offload
correctly even when not advertising it.

When switching to software checksum, packets hit skb_checksum_help,
which has two BUG_ON checksum not in linear segment. Packet sockets
always allocate at least up to csum_start + csum_off + 2 as linear.

ip6_tunnel: Update skb->protocol to ETH_P_IPV6 in ip6_tnl_xmit()

2016-10-29T18:49:31+00:00

This patch updates skb->protocol to ETH_P_IPV6 in ip6_tnl_xmit() when an
IPv6 header is installed to a socket buffer.

This is not a cosmetic change.  Without updating this value, GSO packets
transmitted through an ipip6 tunnel have the protocol of ETH_P_IP and
skb_mac_gso_segment() will attempt to call gso_segment() for IPv4,
which results in the packets being dropped.
