The function tipc_msg_init() has turned out to be of limited value
in many cases. It take too few parameters to be usable for creating
a complete message, it makes too many assumptions about what the
message should be used for, and it does not allocate any buffer to
be returned to the caller.
Therefore, we now introduce the new function tipc_msg_create(), which
takes all the parameters needed to create a full message, and returns
a buffer of the requested size. The new function will be very useful
for the changes we will be doing in later commits in this series.

Upon timeout, undo (via both timestamps/Eifel and DSACKs) was
disabled if any retransmits were still in flight. The concern was
perhaps that spurious retransmission sent in a previous recovery
episode may trigger DSACKs to falsely undo the current recovery.
However, this inadvertently misses undo opportunities (using either
TCP timestamps or DSACKs) when timeout occurs during a loss episode,
i.e. recurring timeouts or timeout during fast recovery. In these
cases some retransmissions will be in flight but we should allow
undo. Furthermore, we should only reset undo_marker and undo_retrans
upon timeout if we are starting a new recovery episode. Finally,
when we do reset our undo state, we now do so in a manner similar
to tcp_enter_recovery(), so that we require a DSACK for each of
the outstsanding retransmissions. This will achieve the original
goal by requiring that we receive the same number of DSACKs as
retransmissions.
This patch increases the undo events by 50% on Google servers.

The first initializer in the following
union vxlan_addr ipa = {
.sin.sin_addr.s_addr = tip,
.sa.sa_family = AF_INET,
};
is optimised away by the compiler, due to the second initializer,
therefore initialising .sin.sin_addr.s_addr always to 0.
This results in netlink messages indicating a L3 miss never contain the
missed IP address. This was observed with GCC 4.8 and 4.9. I do not know about previous versions.
The problem affects user space programs relying on an IP address being
sent as part of a netlink message indicating a L3 miss.
Changing
.sa.sa_family = AF_INET,
to
.sin.sin_family = AF_INET,
fixes the problem.

Event timestamp status messages have a variable length, ranging from
1 to 5 words (16 bit words). The current code however requires
a minimum message length of sizeof(*phy_txts). In most cases this
condition is fulfilled due to padding bytes. However, if several events
are signaled in a single message, padding bytes may not be present.
For short event timestamp status messages, the length check will fail,
and the event timestamp will be dropped.

[Notice this is a bad scenario either way; User should not reach a point where

Commit 7a9bc9b81a ("ipv4: Elide fib_validate_source() completely when possible.")
introduced a short-circuit to avoid calling fib_validate_source when not
needed. That change took rp_filter into account, but not accept_local.
This resulted in a change of behaviour: with rp_filter and accept_local
off, incoming packets with a local address in the source field should be
dropped.
Here is how to reproduce the change pre/post 7a9bc9b81a commit:
-configure the same IPv4 address on hosts A and B.
-try to send an ARP request from B to A.
-The ARP request will be dropped before that commit, but accepted and answered
after that commit.
This adds a check for ACCEPT_LOCAL, to maintain full
fib validation in case it is 0. We also leave __fib_validate_source() earlier
when possible, based on the same check as fib_validate_source(), once the
accept_local stuff is verified.

In SCTP, selection of active (T.ACT) and retransmission (T.RET)
transports is being done whenever transport control operations
(UP, DOWN, PF, ...) are engaged through sctp_assoc_control_transport().
Commits 4c47af4d5e ("net: sctp: rework multihoming retransmission
path selection to rfc4960") and a7288c4dd5 ("net: sctp: improve
sctp_select_active_and_retran_path selection") have both improved
it towards a more fine-grained and optimal path selection.
Currently, the selection algorithm for T.ACT and T.RET is as follows:
1) Elect the two most recently used ACTIVE transports T1, T2 for
T.ACT, T.RET, where T.ACT<-T1 and T1 is most recently used
2) In case primary path T.PRI not in {T1, T2} but ACTIVE, set
T.ACT<-T.PRI and T.RET<-T1
3) If only T1 is ACTIVE from the set, set T.ACT<-T1 and T.RET<-T1
4) If none is ACTIVE, set T.ACT<-best(T.PRI, T.RET, T3) where
T3 is the most recently used (if avail) in PF, set T.RET<-T.PRI
Prior to above commits, 4) was simply a camp on T.ACT<-T.PRI and
T.RET<-T.PRI, ignoring possible paths in PF. Camping on T.PRI is
still slightly suboptimal as it can lead to the following scenario:
Setup:
<A> <B>
T1: p1p1 (10.0.10.10) <==> .'`) <==> p1p1 (10.0.10.12) <= T.PRI
T2: p1p2 (10.0.10.20) <==> (_ . ) <==> p1p2 (10.0.10.22)

T.PRI is permanently down, T2 is put briefly into PF state (e.g. due to
link flapping). Here, the first time transmission is sent over PF path
T2 as it's the only non-INACTIVE path, but the retransmitted data-chunks
are sent over the INACTIVE path T1 (T.PRI), which is not good.
After the patch, it's choosing better transports in both cases by
modifying step 4):
4) If none is ACTIVE, set T.ACT_new<-best(T.ACT_old, T3) where T3 is
the most recently used (if avail) in PF, set T.RET<-T.ACT_new
This will still select a best possible path in PF if available (which
can also include T.PRI/T.RET), and set both T.ACT/T.RET to it.
In case sctp_assoc_control_transport() *just* put T.ACT_old into INACTIVE
as it transitioned from ACTIVE->PF->INACTIVE and stays in INACTIVE just
for a very short while before going back ACTIVE, it will guarantee that
this path will be reselected for T.ACT/T.RET since T3 (PF) is not
available.
Previously, this was not possible, as we would only select between T.PRI
and T.RET, and a possible T3 would be NULL due to the fact that we have
just transitioned T3 in sctp_assoc_control_transport() from PF->INACTIVE
and would select a suboptimal path when T.PRI/T.RET have worse properties.
In the case that T.ACT_old permanently went to INACTIVE during this
transition and there's no PF path available, plus T.PRI and T.RET are
INACTIVE as well, we would now camp on T.ACT_old, but if everything is
being INACTIVE there's really not much we can do except hoping for a
successful HB to bring one of the transports back up again and, thus
cause a new selection through sctp_assoc_control_transport().
Now both tests work fine:
Case 1:
1. T1 S(ACTIVE) T.ACT
T2 S(ACTIVE) T.RET
2. T1 S(ACTIVE) T.ACT, T.RET
T2 S(PF)
3. T1 S(ACTIVE) T.ACT, T.RET
T2 S(INACTIVE)
5. T1 S(PF) T.ACT, T.RET
T2 S(INACTIVE)
[ 5.1 T1 S(INACTIVE) T.ACT, T.RET
T2 S(INACTIVE) ]
6. T1 S(ACTIVE) T.ACT, T.RET
T2 S(INACTIVE)
7. T1 S(ACTIVE) T.ACT
T2 S(ACTIVE) T.RET
Case 2:
1. T1 S(ACTIVE) T.ACT
T2 S(ACTIVE) T.RET
2. T1 S(PF)
T2 S(ACTIVE) T.ACT, T.RET
3. T1 S(INACTIVE)
T2 S(ACTIVE) T.ACT, T.RET
5. T1 S(INACTIVE)
T2 S(PF) T.ACT, T.RET
[ 5.1 T1 S(INACTIVE)
T2 S(INACTIVE) T.ACT, T.RET ]
6. T1 S(INACTIVE)

When both transports are the same, we don't have to go down that
road only to realize that we will return the very same transport.
We are guaranteed that curr is always non-NULL. Therefore, just
short-circuit this special case.

Hidden away in the last 8 bytes of the buffer_list page is a solitary

A NULL pointer dereference is possible for the argument ring->buf_pool
which is passed to xgene_enet_free_desc_ring(), as ring could be NULL.
And now since NULL pointers are being checked for before the calls to
xgene_enet_free_desc_ring(), might as well take advantage of them and
not call the function if the argument would be NULL.

When there are multiple vlan headers present in a received frame, the first
one is put into vlan_tci and protocol is set to ETH_P_8021Q. Anything in the
skb beyond the VLAN TPID may be still non-linear, including the inner TCI
and ethertype. While ovs_flow_extract takes care of IP and IPv6 headers, it
does nothing with ETH_P_8021Q. Later, if OVS_ACTION_ATTR_POP_VLAN is
executed, __pop_vlan_tci pulls the next vlan header into vlan_tci.
This leads to two things:
1. Part of the resulting ethernet header is in the non-linear part of the
skb. When eth_type_trans is called later as the result of
OVS_ACTION_ATTR_OUTPUT, kernel BUGs in __skb_pull. Also, __pop_vlan_tci
is in fact accessing random data when it reads past the TPID.
2. network_header points into the ethernet header instead of behind it.
mac_len is set to a wrong value (10), too.

The current kernel hang on i.MX6SX with rootfs mount from MMC.
The root cause is that ptp uses a periodic timer to access enet register
even if ipg clock is disabled.
FEC ptp driver start one period timer to read 1588 counter register in the
ptp init function that is called after FEC driver is probed.
To save power, after FEC probe finish, FEC driver disable all clocks including
ipg clock that is needed for register access.
i.MX5x, i.MX6q/dl/sl FEC register access don't cause system hang when ipg clock
is disabled, just return zero value. But for i.MX6sx SOC, it cause system hang.
To avoid the issue, we need to check ptp clock status before ptp timer count access.
