2012-09-20net: do not disable sg for packets requiring no checksumEd Cashin
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 f01a5236bd4b140198fbcc550f085e8361fd73fa 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.

2012-09-20xfrm_user: ensure user supplied esn replay window is validMathias Krause
The current code fails to ensure that the netlink message actually contains as many bytes as the header indicates. If a user creates a new state or updates an existing one but does not supply the bytes for the whole ESN replay window, the kernel copies random heap bytes into the replay bitmap, the ones happen to follow the XFRMA_REPLAY_ESN_VAL netlink attribute. This leads to following issues: 1. The replay window has random bits set confusing the replay handling code later on. 2. A malicious user could use this flaw to leak up to ~3.5kB of heap memory when she has access to the XFRM netlink interface (requires CAP_NET_ADMIN). Known users of the ESN replay window are strongSwan and Steffen's iproute2 patch (<http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/85962/>). The latter uses the interface with a bitmap supplied while the former does not. strongSwan is therefore prone to run into issue 1. To fix both issues without breaking existing userland allow using the XFRMA_REPLAY_ESN_VAL netlink attribute with either an empty bitmap or a fully specified one. For the former case we initialize the in-kernel bitmap with zero, for the latter we copy the user supplied bitmap. For state updates the full bitmap must be supplied. To prevent overflows in the bitmap length calculation the maximum size of bmp_len is limited to 128 by this patch -- resulting in a maximum replay window of 4096 packets. This should be sufficient for all real life scenarios (RFC 4303 recommends a default replay window size of 64).

2012-09-20tcp: restore rcv_wscale in a repair mode (v2)Andrey Vagin
rcv_wscale is a symetric parameter with snd_wscale. Both this parameters are set on a connection handshake. Without this value a remote window size can not be interpreted correctly, because a value from a packet should be shifted on rcv_wscale. And one more thing is that wscale_ok should be set too. This patch doesn't break a backward compatibility. If someone uses it in a old scheme, a rcv window will be restored with the same bug (rcv_wscale = 0). v2: Save backward compatibility on big-endian system. Before the first two bytes were snd_wscale and the second two bytes were rcv_wscale. Now snd_wscale is opt_val & 0xFFFF and rcv_wscale >> 16. This approach is independent on byte ordering.

2012-09-19pkt_sched: fix virtual-start-time update in QFQPaolo Valente
If the old timestamps of a class, say cl, are stale when the class becomes active, then QFQ may assign to cl a much higher start time than the maximum value allowed. This may happen when QFQ assigns to the start time of cl the finish time of a group whose classes are characterized by a higher value of the ratio max_class_pkt/weight_of_the_class with respect to that of cl. Inserting a class with a too high start time into the bucket list corrupts the data structure and may eventually lead to crashes. This patch limits the maximum start time assigned to a class.

2012-09-19tcp: flush DMA queue before sk_wait_data if rcv_wnd is zeroMichal Kubeček
If recv() syscall is called for a TCP socket so that - IOAT DMA is used - MSG_WAITALL flag is used - requested length is bigger than sk_rcvbuf - enough data has already arrived to bring rcv_wnd to zero then when tcp_recvmsg() gets to calling sk_wait_data(), receive window can be still zero while sk_async_wait_queue exhausts enough space to keep it zero. As this queue isn't cleaned until the tcp_service_net_dma() call, sk_wait_data() cannot receive any data and blocks forever. If zero receive window and non-empty sk_async_wait_queue is detected before calling sk_wait_data(), process the queue first. Signed-off-by: Michal Kubecek <mkubecek@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: David S.

gred_dequeue() and gred_drop() do not seem to get called when the queue is empty, meaning that we never start idling while in WRED mode. And since qidlestart is not stored by gred_store_wred_set(), we would never stop idling while in WRED mode if we ever started. This messes up the average queue size calculation that influences packet marking/dropping behavior. Now, we start WRED mode idling as we are removing the last packet from the queue.

2012-09-13KEYS: Add payload preparsing opportunity prior to key instantiate or updateDavid Howells
Give the key type the opportunity to preparse the payload prior to the instantiation and update routines being called. This is done with the provision of two new key type operations: int (*preparse)(struct key_preparsed_payload *prep); void (*free_preparse)(struct key_preparsed_payload *prep); If the first operation is present, then it is called before key creation (in the add/update case) or before the key semaphore is taken (in the update and instantiate cases). The second operation is called to clean up if the first was called. preparse() is given the opportunity to fill in the following structure: struct key_preparsed_payload { char *description; void *type_data[2]; void *payload; const void *data; size_t datalen; size_t quotalen; }; Before the preparser is called, the first three fields will have been cleared, the payload pointer and size will be stored in data and datalen and the default quota size from the key_type struct will be stored into quotalen. The preparser may parse the payload in any way it likes and may store data in the type_data[] and payload fields for use by the instantiate() and update() ops. The preparser may also propose a description for the key by attaching it as a string to the description field. This can be used by passing a NULL or "" description to the add_key() system call or the key_create_or_update() function. This cannot work with request_key() as that required the description to tell the upcall about the key to be created. This, for example permits keys that store PGP public keys to generate their own name from the user ID and public key fingerprint in the key. The instantiate() and update() operations are then modified to look like this: int (*instantiate)(struct key *key, struct key_preparsed_payload *prep); int (*update)(struct key *key, struct key_preparsed_payload *prep); and the new payload data is passed in *prep, whether or not it was preparsed.

2012-09-08net: small bug on rxhash calculationChema Gonzalez
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> Signed-off-by: Chema Gonzalez <chema@google.com> Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linville/wireless into for-davem John W. Linville says: ==================== Please pull these fixes intended for 3.6. There are more commits here than I would like -- I got a bit behind while I was stalking Steven Rostedt in San Diego last week... I'll slow it down after this! There are a couple of pulls here. One is from Johannes: "Please pull (according to the below information) to get a few fixes. * a fix to properly disconnect in the driver when authentication or association fails * a fix to prevent invalid information about mesh paths being reported to userspace * a memory leak fix in an nl80211 error path" The other comes via Gustavo: "A few updates for the 3.6 kernel. There are two btusb patches to add more supported devices through the new USB_VENDOR_AND_INTEFACE_INFO() macro and another one that add a new device id for a Sony Vaio laptop, one fix for a user-after-free and, finally, two patches from Vinicius to fix a issue in SMP pairing." Along with those... Arend van Spriel provides a fix for a use-after-free bug in brcmfmac. Daniel Drake avoids a hang by not trying to touch the libertas hardware duing suspend if it is already powered-down. Felix Fietkau provides a batch of ath9k fixes that adress some potential problems with power settings, as well as a fix to avoid a potential interrupt storm. Gertjan van Wingerde provides a register-width fix for rt2x00, and a rt2x00 fix to prevent incorrectly detecting the rfkill status. He also provides a device ID patch. Hante Meuleman gives us three brcmfmac fixes, one that properly initializes a command structure, one that fixes a race condition that could lose usb requests, and one that removes some log spam. Marc Kleine-Budde offers an rt2x00 fix for a voltage setting on some specific devices. Mohammed Shafi Shajakhan sent an ath9k fix to avoid a crash related to using timers that aren't allocated when 2 wire bluetooth coexistence hardware is in use. Sergei Poselenov changes rt2800usb to do some validity checking for received packets, avoiding crashes on an ARM Soc. Stone Piao gives us an mwifiex fix for an incorrectly set skb length value for a command buffer. All of these are localized to their specific drivers, and relatively small. The power-related patches from Felix are bigger than I would like, but I merged them in consideration of their isolation to ath9k and the sensitive nature of power settings in wireless devices. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

2012-09-07SUNRPC: Fix a UDP transport regressionTrond Myklebust
Commit 43cedbf0e8dfb9c5610eb7985d5f21263e313802 (SUNRPC: Ensure that we grab the XPRT_LOCK before calling xprt_alloc_slot) is causing hangs in the case of NFS over UDP mounts. Since neither the UDP or the RDMA transport mechanism use dynamic slot allocation, we can skip grabbing the socket lock for those transports. Add a new rpc_xprt_op to allow switching between the TCP and UDP/RDMA case. Note that the NFSv4.1 back channel assigns the slot directly through rpc_run_bc_task, so we can ignore that case.

2012-09-05Fix order of arguments to compat_put_time[spec|val]Mikulas Patocka
Commit 644595f89620 ("compat: Handle COMPAT_USE_64BIT_TIME in net/socket.c") introduced a bug where the helper functions to take either a 64-bit or compat time[spec|val] got the arguments in the wrong order, passing the kernel stack pointer off as a user pointer (and vice versa). Because of the user address range check, that in turn then causes an EFAULT due to the user pointer range checking failing for the kernel address. Incorrectly resuling in a failed system call for 32-bit processes with a 64-bit kernel. On odder architectures like HP-PA (with separate user/kernel address spaces), it can be used read kernel memory.
