74559c6 Lianwei Wang 20 April 2016, 06:36:20 UTC cpu/hotplug: handle unbalanced hotplug enable/disable Currently it just print a warning message but did not reset cpu_hotplug_disabled when the enable/disable is unbalanced. The unbalanced enable/disable will lead the cpu hotplug work abnormally. Do nothing if an unablanced hotplug enable detected.

Core: - CLK_IS_CRITICAL support has been added. This should allow drivers to properly express that a certain clk should stay on even if their prepare/enable count drops to 0 (and in turn the parents of these clks should stay enabled). - A clk registration API has been added, clk_hw_register(), and an OF clk provider API has been added, of_clk_add_hw_provider(). These APIs have been put in place to further split clk providers from clk consumers, with the goal being to have clk providers never deal with struct clk pointers at all. Conversion of provider drivers is on going. clkdev has also gained support for registering clk_hw pointers directly so we can convert drivers that don't use devicetree.

54cf809 Peter Zijlstra 20 May 2016, 16:04:36 UTC locking,qspinlock: Fix spin_is_locked() and spin_unlock_wait() Similar to commits: 51d7d5205d33 ("powerpc: Add smp_mb() to arch_spin_is_locked()") d86b8da04dfa ("arm64: spinlock: serialise spin_unlock_wait against concurrent lockers") qspinlock suffers from the fact that the _Q_LOCKED_VAL store is unordered inside the ACQUIRE of the lock. And while this is not a problem for the regular mutual exclusive critical section usage of spinlocks, it breaks creative locking like: spin_lock(A) spin_lock(B) spin_unlock_wait(B) if (!spin_is_locked(A)) do_something() do_something() In that both CPUs can end up running do_something at the same time, because our _Q_LOCKED_VAL store can drop past the spin_unlock_wait() spin_is_locked() loads (even on x86!!). To avoid making the normal case slower, add smp_mb()s to the less used spin_unlock_wait() / spin_is_locked() side of things to avoid this problem.

The callbacks are responsible for correctly verifying and dropping the packets. Also, in case the header validation fails for geneve and vxlan we shouldn't put the skb back into the socket queue, no one will pick them up there. Instead we can simply discard them in the respective encap_recv functions. Signed-off-by: Hannes Frederic Sowa <hannes@stressinduktion.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

1b9b69e Alexei Starovoitov 20 May 2016, 01:17:14 UTC bpf: teach verifier to recognize imm += ptr pattern Humans don't write C code like: u8 *ptr = skb->data; int imm = 4; imm += ptr; but from llvm backend point of view 'imm' and 'ptr' are registers and imm += ptr may be preferred vs ptr += imm depending which register value will be used further in the code, while verifier can only recognize ptr += imm. That caused small unrelated changes in the C code of the bpf program to trigger rejection by the verifier. Therefore teach the verifier to recognize both ptr += imm and imm += ptr. For example: when R6=pkt(id=0,off=0,r=62) R7=imm22 after r7 += r6 instruction will be R6=pkt(id=0,off=0,r=62) R7=pkt(id=0,off=22,r=62) Fixes: 969bf05eb3ce ("bpf: direct packet access") Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@kernel.org> Acked-by: Daniel Borkmann <daniel@iogearbox.net> Signed-off-by: David S.

d91b28e Alexei Starovoitov 20 May 2016, 01:17:13 UTC bpf: support decreasing order in direct packet access when packet headers are accessed in 'decreasing' order (like TCP port may be fetched before the program reads IP src) the llvm may generate the following code: [...] // R7=pkt(id=0,off=22,r=70) r2 = *(u32 *)(r7 +0) // good access [...] r7 += 40 // R7=pkt(id=0,off=62,r=70) r8 = *(u32 *)(r7 +0) // good access [...] r1 = *(u32 *)(r7 -20) // this one will fail though it's within a safe range // it's doing *(u32*)(skb->data + 42) Fix verifier to recognize such code pattern Alos turned out that 'off > range' condition is not a verifier bug. It's a buggy program that may do something like: if (ptr + 50 > data_end) return 0; ptr += 60; *(u32*)ptr; in such case emit "invalid access to packet, off=0 size=4, R1(id=0,off=60,r=50)" error message, so all information is available for the program author to fix the program.

e27f4a9 Eric W. Biederman 20 May 2016, 22:22:48 UTC bpf: Use mount_nodev not mount_ns to mount the bpf filesystem While reviewing the filesystems that set FS_USERNS_MOUNT I spotted the bpf filesystem. Looking at the code I saw a broken usage of mount_ns with current->nsproxy->mnt_ns. As the code does not acquire a reference to the mount namespace it can not possibly be correct to store the mount namespace on the superblock as it does. Replace mount_ns with mount_nodev so that each mount of the bpf filesystem returns a distinct instance, and the code is not buggy. In discussion with Hannes Frederic Sowa it was reported that the use of mount_ns was an attempt to have one bpf instance per mount namespace, in an attempt to keep resources that pin resources from hiding. That intent simply does not work, the vfs is not built to allow that kind of behavior. Which means that the bpf filesystem really is buggy both semantically and in it's implemenation as it does not nor can it implement the original intent. This change is userspace visible, but my experience with similar filesystems leads me to believe nothing will break with a model of each mount of the bpf filesystem is distinct from all others.

addf8fc Jason Wang 19 May 2016, 05:36:51 UTC tuntap: correctly wake up process during uninit We used to check dev->reg_state against NETREG_REGISTERED after each time we are woke up. But after commit 9e641bdcfa4e ("net-tun: restructure tun_do_read for better sleep/wakeup efficiency"), it uses skb_recv_datagram() which does not check dev->reg_state. This will result if we delete a tun/tap device after a process is blocked in the reading. The device will wait for the reference count which was held by that process for ever. Fixes this by using RCV_SHUTDOWN which will be checked during sk_recv_datagram() before trying to wake up the process during uninit.

The second patch goes through and enables IPv6 tunnel offloads for the Intel NICs that already support the IPv4 based IP-in-IP tunnel offloads. I have only done a bit of touch testing but have seen ~20 Gb/s over an i40e interface using a v4-in-v6 tunnel, and I have verified IPv6 GRE is still passing traffic at around the same rate. I plan to do further testing but with these patches present it should enable a wider audience to be able to test the new features introduced in Tom's patchset with hardware offloads. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

In either case, the termination sequence is to stop the listen socket, mark the rtn->rds_tcp_listen_sock as null, and flush any accept workqs. Thus any workqs that get flushed at this point will encounter a null rds_tcp_listen_sock, and must exit gracefully to allow the RDS-TCP termination to complete successfully.

fc64869 Andrey Ryabinin 18 May 2016, 16:19:27 UTC net: sock: move ->sk_shutdown out of bitfields. ->sk_shutdown bits share one bitfield with some other bits in sock struct, such as ->sk_no_check_[r,t]x, ->sk_userlocks ... sock_setsockopt() may write to these bits, while holding the socket lock. In case of AF_UNIX sockets, we change ->sk_shutdown bits while holding only unix_state_lock(). So concurrent setsockopt() and shutdown() may lead to corrupting these bits. Fix this by moving ->sk_shutdown bits out of bitfield into a separate byte. This will not change the 'struct sock' size since ->sk_shutdown moved into previously unused 16-bit hole.

1da44f9 Tom Herbert 18 May 2016, 16:06:12 UTC ipv6: Change "final" protocol processing for encapsulation When performing foo-over-UDP, UDP packets are processed by the encapsulation handler which returns another protocol to process. This may result in processing two (or more) protocols in the loop that are marked as INET6_PROTO_FINAL. The actions taken for hitting a final protocol, in particular the skb_postpull_rcsum can only be performed once. This patch set adds a check of a final protocol has been seen. The rules are: - If the final protocol has not been seen any protocol is processed (final and non-final). In the case of a final protocol, the final actions are taken (like the skb_postpull_rcsum) - If a final protocol has been seen (e.g. an encapsulating UDP header) then no further non-final protocols are allowed (e.g. extension headers). For more final protocols the final actions are not taken (e.g. skb_postpull_rcsum). Signed-off-by: Tom Herbert <tom@herbertland.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

This patch checks for a final protocol (INET6_PROTO_FINAL) when a protocol handler returns > 0. If the protocol is not final then resubmission is performed on nhoff value. If the protocol is final then the nexthdr is taken to be the return value. Signed-off-by: Tom Herbert <tom@herbertland.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

c0fcded Paul Durrant 18 May 2016, 14:55:42 UTC xen-netback: only deinitialized hash if it was initialized A domain with a frontend that does not implement a control ring has been seen to cause a crash during domain save. This was apparently because the call to xenvif_deinit_hash() in xenvif_disconnect_ctrl() is made regardless of whether a control ring was connected, and hence xenvif_hash_init() was called. This patch brings the call to xenvif_deinit_hash() in xenvif_disconnect_ctrl() inside the if clause that checks whether the control ring event channel was connected. This is sufficient to ensure it is only called if xenvif_init_hash() was called previously.

185be5a Rabin Vincent 18 May 2016, 10:47:31 UTC phy: fix crash in fixed_phy_add() Since e7f4dc3536a ("mdio: Move allocation of interrupts into core"), platforms which call fixed_phy_add() before fixed_mdio_bus_init() is called (for example, because the platform code and the fixed_phy driver use the same initcall level) crash in fixed_phy_add() since the ->mii_bus is not allocated. Also since e7f4dc3536a, these interrupts are initalized to polling by default. The few (old) platforms which directly use fixed_phy_add() from their platform code all pass PHY_POLL for the irq argument, so we can keep these platforms not crashing by simply not attempting to set the irq if PHY_POLL is passed. Also, even if problems have not been reported on more modern platforms which used fixed_phy_register() from drivers' probe functions, we return -EPROBE_DEFER if the MDIO bus is not yet registered so that the probe is retried later.

This session key is revoked when the user owning the session logs out. Any long running daemon processes started by this session ends up with revoked session keyring which prevents these processes from using the request_key mechanism from obtaining the krb5 keys. The problem has been reported by a large number of autofs users. The problem is also seen with multiuser mounts where the share may be used by processes run by a user who has since logged out.

However, on entering the allocator slowpath the nodemask may still be cpuset_current_mems_allowed and the policies are enforced.

We should be able to achieve the same effect (skipping free_pages_check() from !DEBUG_VM configs) by adding a parameter to free_pages_prepare() and making it inline, so the checks (and the order != 0 parts) are eliminated from the call from free_pcp_prepare(). !DEBUG_VM: bloat-o-meter reports no difference, as my gcc was already inlining free_pages_prepare() and the elimination seems to work as expected DEBUG_VM bloat-o-meter: add/remove: 0/1 grow/shrink: 2/0 up/down: 1035/-778 (257) function old new delta __free_pages_ok 297 1060 +763 free_hot_cold_page 480 752 +272 free_pages_prepare 778 - -778 Here inlining didn't occur before, and added some code, but it's ok for a debug option.

All compound pages are checked. This potentially avoids debugging checks entirely if the PCP lists are never emptied and refilled so some corruption issues may be missed.

002f290 Vlastimil Babka 20 May 2016, 00:14:30 UTC cpuset: use static key better and convert to new API An important function for cpusets is cpuset_node_allowed(), which optimizes on the fact if there's a single root CPU set, it must be trivially allowed. But the check "nr_cpusets() <= 1" doesn't use the cpusets_enabled_key static key the right way where static keys eliminate branching overhead with jump labels. This patch converts it so that static key is used properly. It's also switched to the new static key API and the checking functions are converted to return bool instead of int. We also provide a new variant __cpuset_zone_allowed() which expects that the static key check was already done and they key was enabled. This is needed for get_page_from_freelist() where we want to also avoid the relatively slower check when ALLOC_CPUSET is not set in alloc_flags. The impact on the page allocator microbenchmark is less than expected but the cleanup in itself is worthwhile. 4.6.0-rc2 4.6.0-rc2 multcheck-v1r20 cpuset-v1r20 Min alloc-odr0-1 348.00 ( 0.00%) 348.00 ( 0.00%) Min alloc-odr0-2 254.00 ( 0.00%) 254.00 ( 0.00%) Min alloc-odr0-4 213.00 ( 0.00%) 213.00 ( 0.00%) Min alloc-odr0-8 186.00 ( 0.00%) 183.00 ( 1.61%) Min alloc-odr0-16 173.00 ( 0.00%) 171.00 ( 1.16%) Min alloc-odr0-32 166.00 ( 0.00%) 163.00 ( 1.81%) Min alloc-odr0-64 162.00 ( 0.00%) 159.00 ( 1.85%) Min alloc-odr0-128 160.00 ( 0.00%) 157.00 ( 1.88%) Min alloc-odr0-256 169.00 ( 0.00%) 166.00 ( 1.78%) Min alloc-odr0-512 180.00 ( 0.00%) 180.00 ( 0.00%) Min alloc-odr0-1024 188.00 ( 0.00%) 187.00 ( 0.53%) Min alloc-odr0-2048 194.00 ( 0.00%) 193.00 ( 0.52%) Min alloc-odr0-4096 199.00 ( 0.00%) 198.00 ( 0.50%) Min alloc-odr0-8192 202.00 ( 0.00%) 201.00 ( 0.50%) Min alloc-odr0-16384 203.00 ( 0.00%) 202.00 ( 0.49%) Signed-off-by: Vlastimil Babka <vbabka@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Mel Gorman <mgorman@techsingularity.net> Acked-by: Zefan Li <lizefan@huawei.com> Cc: Jesper Dangaard Brouer <brouer@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> 20 May 2016, 02:12:14 UTC

682a338 Mel Gorman 20 May 2016, 00:13:30 UTC mm, page_alloc: inline the fast path of the zonelist iterator The page allocator iterates through a zonelist for zones that match the addressing limitations and nodemask of the caller but many allocations will not be restricted. Despite this, there is always functional call overhead which builds up. This patch inlines the optimistic basic case and only calls the iterator function for the complex case. A hindrance was the fact that cpuset_current_mems_allowed is used in the fastpath as the allowed nodemask even though all nodes are allowed on most systems. The patch handles this by only considering cpuset_current_mems_allowed if a cpuset exists. As well as being faster in the fast-path, this removes some junk in the slowpath.
