Sabrina Dubroca 00fe11b3c6 netpoll: fix netconsole IPv6 setup
Currently, to make netconsole start over IPv6, the source address
needs to be specified. Without a source address, netpoll_parse_options
assumes we're setting up over IPv4 and the destination IPv6 address is
rejected.

Check if the IP version has been forced by a source address before
checking for a version mismatch when parsing the destination address.

Jason Wang f663dd9aaf net: core: explicitly select a txq before doing l2 forwarding
Currently, the tx queue were selected implicitly in ndo_dfwd_start_xmit(). The
will cause several issues:

- NETIF_F_LLTX were removed for macvlan, so txq lock were done for macvlan
  instead of lower device which misses the necessary txq synchronization for
  lower device such as txq stopping or frozen required by dev watchdog or
  control path.
- dev_hard_start_xmit() was called with NULL txq which bypasses the net device
  watchdog.
- dev_hard_start_xmit() does not check txq everywhere which will lead a crash
  when tso is disabled for lower device.

Fix this by explicitly introducing a new param for .ndo_select_queue() for just
selecting queues in the case of l2 forwarding offload. netdev_pick_tx() was also
extended to accept this parameter and dev_queue_xmit_accel() was used to do l2
forwarding transmission.

With this fixes, NETIF_F_LLTX could be preserved for macvlan and there's no need
to check txq against NULL in dev_hard_start_xmit(). Also there's no need to keep
a dedicated ndo_dfwd_start_xmit() and we can just reuse the code of
dev_queue_xmit() to do the transmission.

In the future, it was also required for macvtap l2 forwarding support since it
provides a necessary synchronization method.

David S. Miller aca5f58f9b netpoll: Fix missing TXQ unlock and and OOPS.
The VLAN tag handling code in netpoll_send_skb_on_dev() has two problems.

1) It exits without unlocking the TXQ.

2) It then tries to queue a NULL skb to npinfo->txq.

Antonio Quartulli 8fb479a47c netpoll: fix rx_hook() interface by passing the skb
Right now skb->data is passed to rx_hook() even if the skb
has not been linearised and without giving rx_hook() a way
to linearise it.

Change the rx_hook() interface and make it accept the skb
and the offset to the UDP payload as arguments. rx_hook() is
also renamed to rx_skb_hook() to ensure that out of the tree
users notice the API change.

In this way any rx_skb_hook() implementation can perform all
the needed operations to properly (and safely) access the
skb data.

Nikolay Aleksandrov d0fe8c888b netpoll: fix NULL pointer dereference in netpoll_cleanup
I've been hitting a NULL ptr deref while using netconsole because the
np->dev check and the pointer manipulation in netpoll_cleanup are done
without rtnl and the following sequence happens when having a netconsole
over a vlan and we remove the vlan while disabling the netconsole:
	CPU 1					CPU2
					removes vlan and calls the notifier
enters store_enabled(), calls
netdev_cleanup which checks np->dev
and then waits for rtnl
					executes the netconsole netdev
					release notifier making np->dev
					== NULL and releases rtnl
continues to dereference a member of
np->dev which at this point is == NULL

Linus Torvalds 496322bc91 Merge git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net-next
Pull networking updates from David Miller:
 "This is a re-do of the net-next pull request for the current merge
  window.  The only difference from the one I made the other day is that
  this has Eliezer's interface renames and the timeout handling changes
  made based upon your feedback, as well as a few bug fixes that have
  trickeled in.

  Highlights:

   1) Low latency device polling, eliminating the cost of interrupt
      handling and context switches.  Allows direct polling of a network
      device from socket operations, such as recvmsg() and poll().

      Currently ixgbe, mlx4, and bnx2x support this feature.

      Full high level description, performance numbers, and design in
      commit 0a4db187a9 ("Merge branch 'll_poll'")

      From Eliezer Tamir.

   2) With the routing cache removed, ip_check_mc_rcu() gets exercised
      more than ever before in the case where we have lots of multicast
      addresses.  Use a hash table instead of a simple linked list, from
      Eric Dumazet.

   3) Add driver for Atheros CQA98xx 802.11ac wireless devices, from
      Bartosz Markowski, Janusz Dziedzic, Kalle Valo, Marek Kwaczynski,
      Marek Puzyniak, Michal Kazior, and Sujith Manoharan.

   4) Support reporting the TUN device persist flag to userspace, from
      Pavel Emelyanov.

   5) Allow controlling network device VF link state using netlink, from
      Rony Efraim.

   6) Support GRE tunneling in openvswitch, from Pravin B Shelar.

   7) Adjust SOCK_MIN_RCVBUF and SOCK_MIN_SNDBUF for modern times, from
      Daniel Borkmann and Eric Dumazet.

   8) Allow controlling of TCP quickack behavior on a per-route basis,
      from Cong Wang.

   9) Several bug fixes and improvements to vxlan from Stephen
      Hemminger, Pravin B Shelar, and Mike Rapoport.  In particular,
      support receiving on multiple UDP ports.

  10) Major cleanups, particular in the area of debugging and cookie
      lifetime handline, to the SCTP protocol code.  From Daniel
      Borkmann.

  11) Allow packets to cross network namespaces when traversing tunnel
      devices.  From Nicolas Dichtel.

  12) Allow monitoring netlink traffic via AF_PACKET sockets, in a
      manner akin to how we monitor real network traffic via ptype_all.
      From Daniel Borkmann.

  13) Several bug fixes and improvements for the new alx device driver,
      from Johannes Berg.

  14) Fix scalability issues in the netem packet scheduler's time queue,
      by using an rbtree.  From Eric Dumazet.

  15) Several bug fixes in TCP loss recovery handling, from Yuchung
      Cheng.

  16) Add support for GSO segmentation of MPLS packets, from Simon
      Horman.

  17) Make network notifiers have a real data type for the opaque
      pointer that's passed into them.  Use this to properly handle
      network device flag changes in arp_netdev_event().  From Jiri
      Pirko and Timo Teräs.

  18) Convert several drivers over to module_pci_driver(), from Peter
      Huewe.

  19) tcp_fixup_rcvbuf() can loop 500 times over loopback, just use a
      O(1) calculation instead.  From Eric Dumazet.

  20) Support setting of explicit tunnel peer addresses in ipv6, just

  21) Protect x86 BPF JIT against spraying attacks, from Eric Dumazet.

  22) Prevent a single high rate flow from overruning an individual cpu
      during RX packet processing via selective flow shedding.  From
      Willem de Bruijn.

Simon Horman 7cc4619005 net, ipv4, ipv6: Correct assignment of skb->network_header to skb->tail
This corrects an regression introduced by "net: Use 16bits for *_headers
fields of struct skbuff" when NET_SKBUFF_DATA_USES_OFFSET is not set. In
that case skb->tail will be a pointer however skb->network_header is now
an offset.

This patch corrects the problem by adding a wrapper to return skb tail as
an offset regardless of the value of NET_SKBUFF_DATA_USES_OFFSET. It seems
that skb->tail that this offset may be more than 64k and some care has been
taken to treat such cases as an error.

debugging is enabled, the above warns the user when we are in fact
exectuting in interrupt context
interrupt context.

After some discussion, It seems that a semaphore is the proper mechanism to use
here.  While mutexes are defined to be unusable in interrupt context, no such
condition exists for semaphores (save for the fact that the non blocking api
calls, like up and down_trylock must be used when in irq context).

Neil Horman 2cde6acd49 netpoll: Fix __netpoll_rcu_free so that it can hold the rtnl lock
__netpoll_rcu_free is used to free netpoll structures when the rtnl_lock is
already held.  The mechanism is used to asynchronously call __netpoll_cleanup
outside of the holding of the rtnl_lock, so as to avoid deadlock.
Unfortunately, __netpoll_cleanup modifies pointers (dev->np), which means the
rtnl_lock must be held while calling it.  Further, it cannot be held, because
rcu callbacks may be issued in softirq contexts, which cannot sleep.

Fix this by converting the rcu callback to a work queue that is guaranteed to
get scheduled in process context, so that we can hold the rtnl properly while
calling __netpoll_cleanup

Tested successfully by myself.

Neil Horman ca99ca14c9 netpoll: protect napi_poll and poll_controller during dev_[open|close]
Ivan Vercera was recently backporting commit
9c13cb8bb4 to a RHEL kernel, and I noticed that,
while this patch protects the tg3 driver from having its ndo_poll_controller
routine called during device initalization, it does nothing for the driver
during shutdown. I.e. it would be entirely possible to have the
ndo_poll_controller method (or subsequently the ndo_poll) routine called for a
driver in the netpoll path on CPU A while in parallel on CPU B, the ndo_close or
ndo_open routine could be called.  Given that the two latter routines tend to
initizlize and free many data structures that the former two rely on, the result
can easily be data corruption or various other crashes.  Furthermore, it seems
that this is potentially a problem with all net drivers that support netpoll,
and so this should ideally be fixed in a common path.

As Ben H Pointed out to me, we can't preform dev_open/dev_close in atomic
context, so I've come up with this solution.  We can use a mutex to sleep in
open/close paths and just do a mutex_trylock in the napi poll path and abandon
the poll attempt if we're locked, as we'll just retry the poll on the next send
anyway.

I've tested this here by flooding netconsole with messages on a system whos nic
driver I modfied to periodically return NETDEV_TX_BUSY, so that the netpoll tx
workqueue would be forced to send frames and poll the device.  While this was
going on I rapidly ifdown/up'ed the interface and watched for any problems.
I've not found any.

Against -net.

In the patch "netpoll: re-enable irq in poll_napi()", I tried to

by reenabling IRQ before calling ->poll, but it seems more
problems are introduced after that patch:

http://ozlabs.org/~akpm/stuff/IMG_20120824_122054.jpg
http://marc.info/?l=linux-netdev&m=134563282530588&w=2

So it is safe to fix be2net driver code directly.

This patch reverts the offending commit and fixes be_poll() by
avoid disabling BH there, this is okay because be_poll()
can be called either by poll_napi() which already disables
IRQ, or by net_rx_action() which already disables BH.

This patch fixes several problems in the call path of
netpoll_send_skb_on_dev():

1. Disable IRQ's before calling netpoll_send_skb_on_dev().

2. All the callees of netpoll_send_skb_on_dev() should use
   rcu_dereference_bh() to dereference ->npinfo.

3. Rename arp_reply() to netpoll_arp_reply(), the former is too generic.

Eric Dumazet 954fba0274 netpoll: fix netpoll_send_udp() bugs
Bogdan Hamciuc diagnosed and fixed following bug in netpoll_send_udp() :

"skb->len += len;" instead of "skb_put(skb, len);"

Meaning that _if_ a network driver needs to call skb_realloc_headroom(),
only packet headers would be copied, leaving garbage in the payload.

However the skb_realloc_headroom() must be avoided as much as possible
since it requires memory and netpoll tries hard to work even if memory
is exhausted (using a pool of preallocated skbs)

It appears netpoll_send_udp() reserved 16 bytes for the ethernet header,
which happens to work for typicall drivers but not all.

Right thing is to use LL_RESERVED_SPACE(dev)
(And also add dev->needed_tailroom of tailroom)

This patch combines both fixes.

Many thanks to Bogdan for raising this issue.

Herbert Xu ae641949df net: Remove all uses of LL_ALLOCATED_SPACE
net: Remove all uses of LL_ALLOCATED_SPACE

The macro LL_ALLOCATED_SPACE was ill-conceived.  It applies the
alignment to the sum of needed_headroom and needed_tailroom.  As
the amount that is then reserved for head room is needed_headroom
with alignment, this means that the tail room left may be too small.

This patch replaces all uses of LL_ALLOCATED_SPACE with the macro
LL_RESERVED_SPACE and direct reference to needed_tailroom.

This also fixes the problem with needed_headroom changing between
allocating the skb and reserving the head room.
