Currently on both paths of message transmission and reception, the
read lock of tipc_net_lock must be held before bearer is accessed,
while the write lock of tipc_net_lock has to be taken before bearer
is configured. Although it can ensure that bearer is always valid on
the two data paths, link and bearer is closely bound together.
So as the part of effort of removing tipc_net_lock, the locking
policy of bearer protection will be adjusted as below: on the two
data paths, RCU is used, and on the configuration path of bearer,
RTNL lock is applied.
Now RCU just covers the path of message reception. To make it possible
to protect the path of message transmission with RCU, link should not
use its stored bearer pointer to access bearer, but it should use the
bearer identity of its attached bearer as index to get bearer instance
from bearer_list array, which can help us decouple the relationship
between bearer and link. As a result, bearer on the path of message
transmission can be safely protected by RCU when we access bearer_list
array within RCU lock protection.

Convert bearer_list to RCU list. It's protected by RTNL lock on

As the tipc network initialization(ie, tipc_net_start routine) is
under RTNL protection, its corresponding deinitialization part(ie,
tipc_net_stop routine) should be protected by RTNL too.

Currently the 'tipc_ptr' pointer is protected by tipc_net_lock
write lock on write side, and RCU read lock is applied to read
side. In addition, there have two paths on write side where we
may change variables pointed by the 'tipc_ptr' pointer: one is
to configure bearer by tipc-config tool and another one is that
bearer status is changed by notification events of its attached
interface. But on the latter path, we improperly deem that
accessing 'tipc_ptr' pointer happens on read side with
rcu_read_lock() although some variables pointed by the 'tipc_ptr'
pointer are changed possibly.
Moreover, as now the both paths are guarded by RTNL lock, it's
better to adjust the locking policy of 'tipc_ptr' pointer
protection, allowing RTNL instead of tipc_net_lock write lock to
protect it on write side, which will help us purge tipc_net_lock
in the future.

There have two paths where we can configure or change bearer status:
one is that bearer is configured from user space with tipc-config
tool; another one is that bearer is changed by notification events
from its attached interface. On the first path, one dedicated
config_mutex lock is guarded; on the latter path, RTNL lock has been
placed to serialize the process of dealing with interface events.
So, if RTNL lock is also used to protect the first path, this will
not only extremely help us simplify current locking policy, but also
config_mutex lock can be deleted as well.

Currently broadcasts are handled in network RX context, where
the packets are sent through netif_rx. This means that the number
of macvlans will be constrained by the capacity of netif_rx.
For example, setting up 4096 macvlans practically causes all
broadcast packets to be dropped as the default netif_rx queue
size simply can't handle 4096 skbs being stuffed into it all
at once.
Fundamentally, we need to ensure that the amount of work handled
in each netif_rx backlog run is constrained. As broadcasts are
anything but constrained, it either needs to be limited per run
or moved to process context.
This patch picks the second option and moves all broadcast handling
bar the trivial case of packets going to a single interface into
a work queue. Obviously there also needs to be a limit on how
many broadcast packets we postpone in this way. I've arbitrarily
chosen tx_queue_len of the master device as the limit (act_mirred
also happens to use this parameter in a similar way).
In order to ensure we don't exceed the backlog queue we will use
netif_rx_ni instead of netif_rx for broadcast packets.

This patch adds the helper __dev_forward_skb which is identical to
dev_forward_skb except that it doesn't actually inject the skb into
the stack. This is useful where we wish to have finer control over
how the packet is injected, e.g., via netif_rx_ni or netif_receive_skb.

Sasha Levin has reported two THP BUGs[1][2]. I believe both of them
have the same root cause. Let's look to them one by one.
The first bug[1] is "kernel BUG at mm/huge_memory.c:1829!". It's
BUG_ON(mapcount != page_mapcount(page)) in __split_huge_page(). From my
testing I see that page_mapcount() is higher than mapcount here.
I think it happens due to race between zap_huge_pmd() and
page_check_address_pmd(). page_check_address_pmd() misses PMD which is
under zap:
CPU0 CPU1
zap_huge_pmd()
pmdp_get_and_clear()
__split_huge_page()
anon_vma_interval_tree_foreach()
__split_huge_page_splitting()
page_check_address_pmd()
mm_find_pmd()
/*
* We check if PMD present without taking ptl: no
* serialization against zap_huge_pmd(). We miss this PMD,
* it's not accounted to 'mapcount' in __split_huge_page().
*/
pmd_present(pmd) == 0
BUG_ON(mapcount != page_mapcount(page)) // CRASH!!!
page_remove_rmap(page)
atomic_add_negative(-1, &page->_mapcount)
The second bug[2] is "kernel BUG at mm/huge_memory.c:1371!".
It's VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(!PageHead(page), page) in zap_huge_pmd().
This happens in similar way:
CPU0 CPU1
zap_huge_pmd()
pmdp_get_and_clear()
page_remove_rmap(page)
atomic_add_negative(-1, &page->_mapcount)
__split_huge_page()
anon_vma_interval_tree_foreach()
__split_huge_page_splitting()
page_check_address_pmd()
mm_find_pmd()
pmd_present(pmd) == 0 /* The same comment as above */
/*
* No crash this time since we already decremented page->_mapcount in

*/
BUG_ON(mapcount != page_mapcount(page))
/*
* We split the compound page here into small pages without
* serialization against zap_huge_pmd()
*/
__split_huge_page_refcount()
VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(!PageHead(page), page); // CRASH!!!
So my understanding the problem is pmd_present() check in mm_find_pmd()
without taking page table lock.
The bug was introduced by me commit with commit 117b0791ac42. Sorry for
that. :(
Let's open code mm_find_pmd() in page_check_address_pmd() and do the
check under page table lock.
Note that __page_check_address() does the same for PTE entires
if sync != 0.
I've stress tested split and zap code paths for 36+ hours by now and
don't see crashes with the patch applied. Before it took <20 min to
trigger the first bug and few hours for second one (if we ignore
first).

David Vrabel identified a regression when using automatic NUMA balancing
under Xen whereby page table entries were getting corrupted due to the
use of native PTE operations. Quoting him
Xen PV guest page tables require that their entries use machine
addresses if the preset bit (_PAGE_PRESENT) is set, and (for
successful migration) non-present PTEs must use pseudo-physical
addresses. This is because on migration MFNs in present PTEs are
translated to PFNs (canonicalised) so they may be translated back
to the new MFN in the destination domain (uncanonicalised).
pte_mknonnuma(), pmd_mknonnuma(), pte_mknuma() and pmd_mknuma()
set and clear the _PAGE_PRESENT bit using pte_set_flags(),
pte_clear_flags(), etc.
In a Xen PV guest, these functions must translate MFNs to PFNs
when clearing _PAGE_PRESENT and translate PFNs to MFNs when setting
_PAGE_PRESENT.
His suggested fix converted p[te|md]_[set|clear]_flags to using
paravirt-friendly ops but this is overkill. He suggested an alternative
of using p[te|md]_modify in the NUMA page table operations but this is
does more work than necessary and would require looking up a VMA for
protections.
This patch modifies the NUMA page table operations to use paravirt
friendly operations to set/clear the flags of interest. Unfortunately
this will take a performance hit when updating the PTEs on
CONFIG_PARAVIRT but I do not see a way around it that does not break
Xen.

numa_memory_policy.txt
In document numa_memory_policy.txt, the following examples for flag
MPOL_F_RELATIVE_NODES are incorrect.
For example, consider a task that is attached to a cpuset with
mems 2-5 that sets an Interleave policy over the same set with
MPOL_F_RELATIVE_NODES. If the cpuset's mems change to 3-7, the
interleave now occurs over nodes 3,5-6. If the cpuset's mems
then change to 0,2-3,5, then the interleave occurs over nodes
0,3,5.
According to the comment of the patch adding flag MPOL_F_RELATIVE_NODES,
the nodemasks the user specifies should be considered relative to the
current task's mems_allowed.
(https://lkml.org/lkml/2008/2/29/428)
And according to numa_memory_policy.txt, if the user's nodemask includes
nodes that are outside the range of the new set of allowed nodes, then
the remap wraps around to the beginning of the nodemask and, if not
already set, sets the node in the mempolicy nodemask.
So in the example, if the user specifies 2-5, for a task whose
mems_allowed is 3-7, the nodemasks should be remapped the third, fourth,
fifth, sixth node in mems_allowed. like the following:
mems_allowed: 3 4 5 6 7
relative index: 0 1 2 3 4
5
So the nodemasks should be remapped to 3,5-7, but not 3,5-6.
And for a task whose mems_allowed is 0,2-3,5, the nodemasks should be
remapped to 0,2-3,5, but not 0,3,5.
mems_allowed: 0 2 3 5
relative index: 0 1 2 3
4 5

---[ end trace b530b0551467f2fd ]---
Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception in interrupt
What happens while auth_enable=0 in that case is, that
ep->auth_hmacs is initialized to NULL in sctp_auth_init_hmacs()
when endpoint is being created.
After that point, if an admin switches over to auth_enable=1,
the machine can crash due to NULL pointer dereference during
reception of an INIT chunk. When we enter sctp_process_init()
via sctp_sf_do_5_1B_init() in order to respond to an INIT chunk,
the INIT verification succeeds and while we walk and process
all INIT params via sctp_process_param() we find that
net->sctp.auth_enable is set, therefore do not fall through,
but invoke sctp_auth_asoc_set_default_hmac() instead, and thus,
dereference what we have set to NULL during endpoint
initialization phase.
The fix is to make auth_enable immutable by caching its value
during endpoint initialization, so that its original value is
being carried along until destruction. The bug seems to originate
from the very first days.
Fix in joint work with Daniel Borkmann.

John W. Linville says:
====================
pull request: wireless 2014-04-17
Please pull this batch of fixes intended for the 3.15 stream...
For the mac80211 bits, Johannes says:
"We have a fix from Chun-Yeow to not look at management frame bitrates
that are typically really low, two fixes from Felix for AP_VLAN
interfaces, a fix from Ido to disable SMPS settings when a monitor
interface is enabled, a radar detection fix from Michał and a fix from
myself for a very old remain-on-channel bug."
For the iwlwifi bits, Emmanuel says:
"I have new device IDs and a new firmware API. These are the trivial
ones. The less trivial ones are Johannes's fix that delays the
enablement of an interrupt coalescing hardware until after association
- this fixes a few connection problems seen in the field. Eyal has a
bunch of rate control fixes. I decided to add these for 3.15 because
they fix some disconnection and packet loss scenarios which were
reported by the field. I also have a fix for a memory leak that
happens only with a very new NIC."
Along with those...
Amitkumar Karwar fixes a couple of problems relating to driver/firmware
interactions in mwifiex.
Christian Engelmayer avoids a couple of potential memory leaks in
the new rsi driver.
Eliad Peller provides a wl18xx mailbox alignment fix for problems
when using new firmware.
Frederic Danis adds a couple of missing debugging strings to the
cw1200 driver.
Geert Uytterhoeven adds a variable initialization inside of the
rsi driver.
Luciano Coelho patches the wlcore code to ignore dummy packet events
in PLT mode in order to work around a firmware bug.
