2016-01-11tcp_yeah: don't set ssthresh below 2Neal Cardwell
For tcp_yeah, use an ssthresh floor of 2, the same floor used by Reno and CUBIC, per RFC 5681 (equation 4). tcp_yeah_ssthresh() was sometimes returning a 0 or negative ssthresh value if the intended reduction is as big or bigger than the current cwnd. Congestion control modules should never return a zero or negative ssthresh. A zero ssthresh generally results in a zero cwnd, causing the connection to stall. A negative ssthresh value will be interpreted as a u32 and will set a target cwnd for PRR near 4 billion. Oleksandr Natalenko reported that a system using tcp_yeah with ECN could see a warning about a prior_cwnd of 0 in tcp_cwnd_reduction(). Testing verified that this was due to tcp_yeah_ssthresh() misbehaving in this way.

2016-01-11sctp: fix use-after-free in pr_debug statementMarcelo Ricardo Leitner
Dmitry Vyukov reported a use-after-free in the code expanded by the macro debug_post_sfx, which is caused by the use of the asoc pointer after it was freed within sctp_side_effect() scope. This patch fixes it by allowing sctp_side_effect to clear that asoc pointer when the TCB is freed. As Vlad explained, we also have to cover the SCTP_DISPOSITION_ABORT case because it will trigger DELETE_TCB too on that same loop. Also, there were places issuing SCTP_CMD_INIT_FAILED and ASSOC_FAILED but returning SCTP_DISPOSITION_CONSUME, which would fool the scheme above. Fix it by returning SCTP_DISPOSITION_ABORT instead. The macro is already prepared to handle such NULL pointer.

2016-01-11mlxsw: spectrum: Add FDB lock to prevent session interleavingIdo Schimmel
Dumping the FDB (invoked with a process context) or handling FDB notifications (polled periodicly in delayed work) might each entail multiple EMAD transcations due to the number of entries. While we only allow one EMAD transaction at a time, there is nothing stopping the dump and notification processing sessions from interleaving. However, this is forbidden by the hardware, so we need to make sure only one of these sessions can run at a time. Solve this by adding a mutex ('fdb_lock'), as both kernel threads can sleep while waiting for the response EMAD.

2016-01-11unix: properly account for FDs passed over unix socketswilly tarreau
It is possible for a process to allocate and accumulate far more FDs than the process' limit by sending them over a unix socket then closing them to keep the process' fd count low. This change addresses this problem by keeping track of the number of FDs in flight per user and preventing non-privileged processes from having more FDs in flight than their configured FD limit.

2016-01-10udp: restrict offloads to one namespaceHannes Frederic Sowa
udp tunnel offloads tend to aggregate datagrams based on inner headers. gro engine gets notified by tunnel implementations about possible offloads. The match is solely based on the port number. Imagine a tunnel bound to port 53, the offloading will look into all DNS packets and tries to aggregate them based on the inner data found within. This could lead to data corruption and malformed DNS packets. While this patch minimizes the problem and helps an administrator to find the issue by querying ip tunnel/fou, a better way would be to match on the specific destination ip address so if a user space socket is bound to the same address it will conflict.

2016-01-10vxlan: fix test which detect duplicate vxlan ifaceNicolas Dichtel
When a vxlan interface is created, the driver checks that there is not another vxlan interface with the same properties. To do this, it checks the existing vxlan udp socket. Since commit 1c51a9159dde, the creation of the vxlan socket is done only when the interface is set up, thus it breaks that test. Example: $ ip l a vxlan10 type vxlan id 10 group 239.0.0.10 dev eth0 dstport 0 $ ip l a vxlan11 type vxlan id 10 group 239.0.0.10 dev eth0 dstport 0 $ ip -br l | grep vxlan vxlan10 DOWN f2:55:1c:6a:fb:00 <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> vxlan11 DOWN 7a:cb:b9:38:59:0d <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> Instead of checking sockets, let's loop over the vxlan iface list.

batadv_iv_ogm_orig_del_if removes a part of the bcast_own which previously belonged to the now removed interface. This is done by copying all data which comes before the removed interface and then appending all the data which comes after the removed interface. The address calculation for the position of the data which comes after the removed interface assumed that the bat_iv.bcast_own is a pointer to a single byte datatype. But it is a pointer to unsigned long and thus the calculated position was wrong off factor sizeof(unsigned long).

2016-01-06tcp: fix zero cwnd in tcp_cwnd_reductionYuchung Cheng
Patch 3759824da87b ("tcp: PRR uses CRB mode by default and SS mode conditionally") introduced a bug that cwnd may become 0 when both inflight and sndcnt are 0 (cwnd = inflight + sndcnt). This may lead to a div-by-zero if the connection starts another cwnd reduction phase by setting tp->prior_cwnd to the current cwnd (0) in tcp_init_cwnd_reduction(). To prevent this we skip PRR operation when nothing is acked or sacked. Then cwnd must be positive in all cases as long as ssthresh is positive: 1) The proportional reduction mode inflight > ssthresh > 0 2) The reduction bound mode a) inflight == ssthresh > 0 b) inflight < ssthresh sndcnt > 0 since newly_acked_sacked > 0 and inflight < ssthresh Therefore in all cases inflight and sndcnt can not both be 0. We check invalid tp->prior_cwnd to avoid potential div0 bugs. In reality this bug is triggered only with a sequence of less common events. For example, the connection is terminating an ECN-triggered cwnd reduction with an inflight 0, then it receives reordered/old ACKs or DSACKs from prior transmission (which acks nothing). Or the connection is in fast recovery stage that marks everything lost, but fails to retransmit due to local issues, then receives data packets from other end which acks nothing.

On 2015/11/06, Dmitry Vyukov reported a deadlock involving the splice system call and AF_UNIX sockets, http://lists.openwall.net/netdev/2015/11/06/24 The situation was analyzed as (a while ago) A: socketpair() B: splice() from a pipe to /mnt/regular_file does sb_start_write() on /mnt C: try to freeze /mnt wait for B to finish with /mnt A: bind() try to bind our socket to /mnt/new_socket_name lock our socket, see it not bound yet decide that it needs to create something in /mnt try to do sb_start_write() on /mnt, block (it's waiting for C). D: splice() from the same pipe to our socket lock the pipe, see that socket is connected try to lock the socket, block waiting for A B: get around to actually feeding a chunk from pipe to file, try to lock the pipe. Deadlock. on 2015/11/10 by Al Viro, http://lists.openwall.net/netdev/2015/11/10/4 The patch fixes this by removing the kern_path_create related code from unix_mknod and executing it as part of unix_bind prior acquiring the readlock of the socket in question. This means that A (as used above) will sb_start_write on /mnt before it acquires the readlock, hence, it won't indirectly block B which first did a sb_start_write and then waited for a thread trying to acquire the readlock. Consequently, A being blocked by C waiting for B won't cause a deadlock anymore (effectively, both A and B acquire two locks in opposite order in the situation described above).

When the reset_resume() is called, the flag of SELECTIVE_SUSPEND should be cleared and reinitialize the device, whether the SELECTIVE_SUSPEND is set or not. If reset_resume() is called, it means the power supply is cut or the device is reset. That is, the device wouldn't be in runtime suspend state and the reinitialization is necessary.

2016-01-05connector: bump skb->users before callback invocationFlorian Westphal
Dmitry reports memleak with syskaller program. Problem is that connector bumps skb usecount but might not invoke callback. So move skb_get to where we invoke the callback.

However in current code, start_index is smaller than *pos at first, and code will not iterate the list. Latter container_of will get the wrong address with former v, which will cause mod_fmt be a meaningless object and so is the returned mod_fmt->fmt. This patch will fix it by correcting the start_index. After fixed, when the first time calls find_next_mod_format, start_index will be equal to *pos, and code will iterate the trace_bprintk_fmt_list to get the right module printk format, so is the returned mod_fmt->fmt.
