Commit 436f2ad0 ("IB/core: Export ib_create/destroy_flow through uverbs") added public data structures to support receive flow steering. The new structs are not following the 'uverbs' pattern: they're lacking the common prefix 'ib_uverbs'. This patch replaces ib_kern prefix by ib_uverbs. Signed-off-by:

This patch fixes the following issues: 1. Unneeded checks were removed 2. Removed the fixed size out of flow_attr.size, thus simplifying the checks. 3. Remove a 32bit hole on 64bit systems with strict alignment in struct ib_kern_flow_att by adding a reserved field. Signed-off-by:

Make sure rt6i_gateway contains nexthop information in all routes returned from lookup or when routes are directly attached to skb for generated ICMP packets. The effect of this patch should be a faster version of rt6_nexthop() and the consideration of local addresses as nexthop. Signed-off-by:

In v3.9 6fd6ce20 ("ipv6: Do not depend on rt->n in ip6_finish_output2()." changed the behaviour of ip6_finish_output2() such that the recently introduced rt6_nexthop() is used instead of an assigned neighbor. As rt6_nexthop() prefers rt6i_gateway only for gatewayed routes this causes a problem for users like IPVS, xt_TEE and RAW(hdrincl) if they want to use different address for routing compared to the destination address. Another case is when redirect can create RTF_DYNAMIC route without RTF_GATEWAY flag, we ignore the rt6i_gateway in rt6_nexthop(). Fix the above problems by considering the rt6i_gateway if present, so that traffic routed to address on local subnet is not wrongly diverted to the destination address. Thanks to Simon Horman and Phil Oester for spotting the problematic commit. Thanks to Hannes Frederic Sowa for his review and help in testing. Reported-by:

The create_flow/destroy_flow uverbs and the associated extensions to the user-kernel verbs ABI are under review and are too experimental to freeze at this point. So userspace is not exposed to experimental features and an uinstable ABI, temporarily disable this for v3.12 (with a Kconfig option behind staging to reenable it if desired). The feature will be enabled after proper cleanup for v3.13. Signed-off-by:

When CONFIG_NETLABEL is disabled, the cipso_v4_validate() function could loop forever in the main loop if opt[opt_iter +1] == 0, this will causing a kernel crash in an SMP system, since the CPU executing this function will stall /not respond to IPIs. This problem can be reproduced by running the IP Stack Integrity Checker (http://isic.sourceforge.net ) using the following command on a Linux machine connected to DUT: "icmpsic -s rand -d <DUT IP address> -r 123456" wait (1-2 min) Signed-off-by:

Pavel Roskin reported that DRM_IOCTL_MODE_GETCONNECTOR was overwritting the 4 bytes beyond the end of its structure with a 32-bit userspace running on a 64-bit kernel. This is due to the padding gcc inserts as the drm_mode_get_connector struct includes a u64 and its size is not a natural multiple of u64s. 64-bit kernel: sizeof(drm_mode_get_connector)=80, alignof=8 sizeof(drm_mode_get_encoder)=20, alignof=4 sizeof(drm_mode_modeinfo)=68, alignof=4 32-bit userspace: sizeof(drm_mode_get_connector)=76, alignof=4 sizeof(drm_mode_get_encoder)=20, alignof=4 sizeof(drm_mode_modeinfo)=68, alignof=4 Fortuituously we can insert explicit padding to the tail of our structures without breaking ABI.

Commit 3fa4d734 (usb: phy: rename nop_usb_xceiv => usb_phy_gen_xceiv) changed the conditional around the declaration of usb_nop_xceiv_register from #if defined(CONFIG_NOP_USB_XCEIV) || (defined(CONFIG_NOP_USB_XCEIV_MODULE) && defined(MODULE)) to #if IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_NOP_USB_XCEIV) While that looks the same, it is semantically different. The first expression is true if CONFIG_NOP_USB_XCEIV is built as module and if the including code is built as module. The second expression is true if code depending on CONFIG_NOP_USB_XCEIV if built as module or into the kernel. As a result, the arm:allmodconfig build fails with arch/arm/mach-omap2/built-in.o: In function `omap3_evm_init': arch/arm/mach-omap2/board-omap3evm.c:703: undefined reference to `usb_nop_xceiv_register' Fix the problem by reverting to the old conditional.

Commit 3812c8c8 ("mm: memcg: do not trap chargers with full callstack on OOM") assumed that only a few places that can trigger a memcg OOM situation do not return VM_FAULT_OOM, like optional page cache readahead. But there are many more and it's impractical to annotate them all. First of all, we don't want to invoke the OOM killer when the failed allocation is gracefully handled, so defer the actual kill to the end of the fault handling as well. This simplifies the code quite a bit for added bonus. Second, since a failed allocation might not be the abrupt end of the fault, the memcg OOM handler needs to be re-entrant until the fault finishes for subsequent allocation attempts. If an allocation is attempted after the task already OOMed, allow it to bypass the limit so that it can quickly finish the fault and invoke the OOM killer. Reported-by:

This reverts commit 81b5c7bc. Adding drm/i915 into the vga arbiter chain means that X (in a piece of well-meant paranoia) will do a get/put on the vga decoding around _every_ accel call down into the ddx. Which results in some nice performance disasters [1]. This really breaks userspace, by disabling DRI for everyone, and stops OpenGL from working, this isn't limited to just the i915 but both the integrated and discrete GPUs on multi-gpu systems, in other words this causes untold worlds of pain, Ville tried to come up with a Great Hack to fiddle the required VGA I/O ops behind everyone's back using stop_machine, but that didn't really work out [2]. Given that we're fairly late in the -rc stage for such games let's just revert this all. One thing we might want to keep is to delay the disabling of the vga decoding until the fbdev emulation and the fbcon screen is set up. If we kill vga mem decoding beforehand fbcon can end up with a white square in the top-left corner it tried to save from the vga memory for a seamless transition. And we have bug reports on older platforms which seem to match these symptoms. But again that's something to play around with in -next.

Allow architectures which have a disabled get_cycles() function to provide a random_get_entropy() function which provides a fine-grained, rapidly changing counter that can be used by the /dev/random driver. For example, an architecture might have a rapidly changing register used to control random TLB cache eviction, or DRAM refresh that doesn't meet the requirements of get_cycles(), but which is good enough for the needs of the random driver.

The unpacked_lun field in the SCSI target tracepoints should be initialized with cmd->orig_fe_lun rather than cmd->se_lun->unpacked_lun for two reasons: - most importantly, if we are in the cmd_complete tracepoint returning a check condition due to no LUN found, cmd->se_lun will be NULL and we'll crash trying to dereference it. - also, in any case, cmd->se_lun->unpacked_lun is an internal index into the target's internal set of LUNs; cmd->orig_fe_lun is much more useful and interesting, since it's the value the initiator actually sent.

While auditing the list_entry usage due to a trinity bug I found that perf_pmu_migrate_context violates the rules for perf_event::event_entry. The problem is that perf_event::event_entry is a RCU list element, and hence we must wait for a full RCU grace period before re-using the element after deletion. Therefore the usage in perf_pmu_migrate_context() which re-uses the entry immediately is broken. For now introduce another list_head into perf_event for this specific usage. This doesn't actually fix the trinity report because that never goes through this code. Signed-off-by:

The include/asm-generic/hugetlb.h stubs that just vector huge_pte_*() calls to the pte_*() implementations won't work in certain situations. x86 and sparc, for example, return "unsigned long" from the bit checks, and just go "return pte_val(pte) & PTE_BIT_FOO;" But since huge_pte_*() returns 'int', if any high bits on 64-bit are relevant, they get chopped off. The net effect is that we can loop forever trying to COW a huge page, because the huge_pte_write() check signals false all the time. Reported-by:

Isolated balloon pages can wrongly end up in LRU lists when migrate_pages() finishes its round without draining all the isolated page list. The same issue can happen when reclaim_clean_pages_from_list() tries to reclaim pages from an isolated page list, before migration, in the CMA path. Such balloon page leak opens a race window against LRU lists shrinkers that leads us to the following kernel panic: BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000028 IP: [<ffffffff810c2625>] shrink_page_list+0x24e/0x897 PGD 3cda2067 PUD 3d713067 PMD 0 Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP CPU: 0 PID: 340 Comm: kswapd0 Not tainted 3.12.0-rc1-22626-g4367597 #87 Hardware name: Bochs Bochs, BIOS Bochs 01/01/2011 RIP: shrink_page_list+0x24e/0x897 RSP: 0000:ffff88003da499b8 EFLAGS: 00010286 RAX: 0000000000000000 RBX: ffff88003e82bd60 RCX: 00000000000657d5 RDX: 0000000000000000 RSI: 000000000000031f RDI: ffff88003e82bd40 RBP: ffff88003da49ab0 R08: 0000000000000001 R09: 0000000081121a45 R10: ffffffff81121a45 R11: ffff88003c4a9a28 R12: ffff88003e82bd40 R13: ffff88003da0e800 R14: 0000000000000001 R15: ffff88003da49d58 FS: 0000000000000000(0000) GS:ffff88003fc00000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 0000000080050033 CR2: 00000000067d9000 CR3: 000000003ace5000 CR4: 00000000000407b0 Call Trace: shrink_inactive_list+0x240/0x3de shrink_lruvec+0x3e0/0x566 __shrink_zone+0x94/0x178 shrink_zone+0x3a/0x82 balance_pgdat+0x32a/0x4c2 kswapd+0x2f0/0x372 kthread+0xa2/0xaa ret_from_fork+0x7c/0xb0 Code: 80 7d 8f 01 48 83 95 68 ff ff ff 00 4c 89 e7 e8 5a 7b 00 00 48 85 c0 49 89 c5 75 08 80 7d 8f 00 74 3e eb 31 48 8b 80 18 01 00 00 <48> 8b 74 0d 48 8b 78 30 be 02 00 00 00 ff d2 eb RIP [<ffffffff810c2625>] shrink_page_list+0x24e/0x897 RSP <ffff88003da499b8> CR2: 0000000000000028 ---[ end trace 703d2451af6ffbfd ]--- Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception This patch fixes the issue, by assuring the proper tests are made at putback_movable_pages() & reclaim_clean_pages_from_list() to avoid isolated balloon pages being wrongly reinserted in LRU lists.

Use of RCU api makes vxlan code easier to understand. It also fixes bug due to missing ACCESS_ONCE() on sk_user_data dereference. In rare case without ACCESS_ONCE() compiler might omit vs on sk_user_data dereference. Compiler can use vs as alias for sk->sk_user_data, resulting in multiple sk_user_data dereference in rcu read context which could change. CC: Jesse Gross <jesse@nicira.com> Signed-off-by:

TCP packets hitting the SYN proxy through the SYNPROXY target are not validated by TCP conntrack. When th->doff is below 5, an underflow happens when calculating the options length, causing skb_header_pointer() to return NULL and triggering the BUG_ON(). Handle this case gracefully by checking for NULL instead of using BUG_ON(). Reported-by:

There is currently serialization network namespaces exiting and network devices exiting as the final part of netdev_run_todo does not happen under the rtnl_lock. This is compounded by the fact that the only list of devices unregistering in netdev_run_todo is local to the netdev_run_todo. This lack of serialization in extreme cases results in network devices unregistering in netdev_run_todo after the loopback device of their network namespace has been freed (making dst_ifdown unsafe), and after the their network namespace has exited (making the NETDEV_UNREGISTER, and NETDEV_UNREGISTER_FINAL callbacks unsafe). Add the missing serialization by a per network namespace count of how many network devices are unregistering and having a wait queue that is woken up whenever the count is decreased. The count and wait queue allow default_device_exit_batch to wait until all of the unregistration activity for a network namespace has finished before proceeding to unregister the loopback device and then allowing the network namespace to exit. Only a single global wait queue is used because there is a single global lock, and there is a single waiter, per network namespace wait queues would be a waste of resources. The per network namespace count of unregistering devices gives a progress guarantee because the number of network devices unregistering in an exiting network namespace must ultimately drop to zero (assuming network device unregistration completes). The basic logic remains the same as in v1. This patch is now half comment and half rtnl_lock_unregistering an expanded version of wait_event performs no extra work in the common case where no network devices are unregistering when we get to default_device_exit_batch.

When a router is doing DNAT for 6to4/6rd packets the latest anti-spoofing commit 218774dc ("ipv6: add anti-spoofing checks for 6to4 and 6rd") will drop them because the IPv6 address embedded does not match the IPv4 destination. This patch will allow them to pass by testing if we have an address that matches on 6to4/6rd interface. I have been hit by this problem using Fedora and IPV6TO4_IPV4ADDR. Also, log the dropped packets (with rate limit). Signed-off-by:

Commit 638c5115(USBNET: support DMA SG) introduces DMA SG if the usb host controller is capable of building packet from discontinuous buffers, but missed handling padding packet when building DMA SG. This patch attachs the pre-allocated padding packet at the end of the sg list, so padding packet can be sent to device if drivers require that. Reported-by:

Linus suggested to replace #ifndef CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_MUTEX_CPU_RELAX #define arch_mutex_cpu_relax() cpu_relax() #endif with just a simple #ifndef arch_mutex_cpu_relax # define arch_mutex_cpu_relax() cpu_relax() #endif to get rid of CONFIG_HAVE_CPU_RELAX_SIMPLE. So architectures can simply define arch_mutex_cpu_relax if they want an architecture specific function instead of having to add a select statement in their Kconfig in addition. Suggested-by:

The current code does not correctly negotiate the version numbers for the util driver when hosted on earlier hosts. The version numbers presented by this driver were not compatible with the version numbers supported by Windows Server 2008. Fix this problem.
