bridge/nl: remove wrong use of NLM_F_MULTI

2015-04-29T18:59:16+00:00

NLM_F_MULTI must be used only when a NLMSG_DONE message is sent. In fact,
it is sent only at the end of a dump.

Libraries like libnl will wait forever for NLMSG_DONE.

net: rfs: fix crash in get_rps_cpus()

2015-04-26T20:07:57+00:00

Commit 567e4b79731c ("net: rfs: add hash collision detection") had one
mistake :

RPS_NO_CPU is no longer the marker for invalid cpu in set_rps_cpu()
and get_rps_cpu(), as @next_cpu was the result of an AND with
rps_cpu_mask

This bug showed up on a host with 72 cpus :
next_cpu was 0x7f, and the code was trying to access percpu data of an
non existent cpu.

In a follow up patch, we might get rid of compares against nr_cpu_ids,
if we init the tables with 0. This is silly to test for a very unlikely
condition that exists only shortly after table initialization, as
we got rid of rps_reset_sock_flow() and similar functions that were
writing this RPS_NO_CPU magic value at flow dismantle : When table is
old enough, it never contains this value anymore.

net: fix crash in build_skb()

2015-04-25T19:49:49+00:00

When I added pfmemalloc support in build_skb(), I forgot netlink
was using build_skb() with a vmalloc() area.

In this patch I introduce __build_skb() for netlink use,
and build_skb() is a wrapper handling both skb->head_frag and
skb->pfmemalloc

This means netlink no longer has to hack skb->head_frag

net: do not deplete pfmemalloc reserve

2015-04-22T20:24:59+00:00

build_skb() should look at the page pfmemalloc status.
If set, this means page allocator allocated this page in the
expectation it would help to free other pages. Networking
stack can do that only if skb->pfmemalloc is also set.

Also, we must refrain using high order pages from the pfmemalloc
reserve, so __page_frag_refill() must also use __GFP_NOMEMALLOC for
them. Under memory pressure, using order-0 pages is probably the best
strategy.

net: remove unused 'dev' argument from netif_needs_gso()

2015-04-17T17:29:41+00:00

In commit 04ffcb255f22 ("net: Add ndo_gso_check") Tom originally
added the 'dev' argument to be able to call ndo_gso_check().

Then later, when generalizing this in commit 5f35227ea34b
("net: Generalize ndo_gso_check to ndo_features_check")
Jesse removed the call to ndo_gso_check() in netif_needs_gso()
by calling the new ndo_features_check() in a different place.
This made the 'dev' argument unused.

Remove the unused argument and go back to the code as before.

Sure.

PS I used the wrong email for James the first time around.  So
let me repeat the question here.  Should secmark be preserved
or cleared across tunnels within the same name space? In fact,
do our security models even support name spaces?

---8<---
The commit ea23192e8e577dfc51e0f4fc5ca113af334edff9 ("tunnels:
harmonize cleanup done on skb on rx path") broke anyone trying to
use netfilter marking across IPv4 tunnels.  While most of the
fields that are cleared by skb_scrub_packet don't matter, the
netfilter mark must be preserved.

This patch rearranges skb_scrub_packet to preserve the mark field.

Revert "net: Reset secmark when scrubbing packet"

2015-04-16T18:19:02+00:00

This patch reverts commit b8fb4e0648a2ab3734140342002f68fb0c7d1602
because the secmark must be preserved even when a packet crosses
namespace boundaries.  The reason is that security labels apply to
the system as a whole and is not per-namespace.

bpf: fix bpf helpers to use skb->mac_header relative offsets

2015-04-16T18:08:49+00:00

For the short-term solution, lets fix bpf helper functions to use
skb->mac_header relative offsets instead of skb->data in order to
get the same eBPF programs with cls_bpf and act_bpf work on ingress
and egress qdisc path. We need to ensure that mac_header is set
before calling into programs. This is effectively the first option
from below referenced discussion.

More long term solution for LD_ABS|LD_IND instructions will be more
intrusive but also more beneficial than this, and implemented later
as it's too risky at this point in time.

I.e., we plan to look into the option of moving skb_pull() out of
eth_type_trans() and into netif_receive_skb() as has been suggested
as second option. Meanwhile, this solution ensures ingress can be
used with eBPF, too, and that we won't run into ABI troubles later.
For dealing with negative offsets inside eBPF helper functions,
we've implemented bpf_skb_clone_unwritable() to test for unwriteable
headers.

Merge branch 'for-davem' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs

2015-04-13T22:18:05+00:00

Al Viro says:

====================
netdev-related stuff in vfs.git

There are several commits sitting in vfs.git that probably ought to go in
via net-next.git.  First of all, there's merge with vfs.git#iocb - that's
Christoph's aio rework, which has triggered conflicts with the ->sendmsg()
and ->recvmsg() patches a while ago.  It's not so much Christoph's stuff
that ought to be in net-next, as (pretty simple) conflict resolution on merge.
The next chunk is switch to {compat_,}import_iovec/import_single_range - new
safer primitives for initializing iov_iter.  The primitives themselves come
from vfs/git#iov_iter (and they are used quite a lot in vfs part of queue),
conversion of net/socket.c syscalls belongs in net-next, IMO.  Next there's
afs and rxrpc stuff from dhowells.  And then there's sanitizing kernel_sendmsg
et.al.  + missing inlined helper for "how much data is left in msg->msg_iter" -
this stuff is used in e.g.  cifs stuff, but it belongs in net-next.

That pile is pullable from
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs.git for-davem

I'll post the individual patches in there in followups; could you take a look
and tell if everything in there is OK with you?
