net: caif: replace BUG_ON with recovery code

2019-12-17T00:29:05+00:00

In caif_xmit, there is a crash if the ptr dev is NULL. However, by returning the error to the callers, the error can be handled. The patch fixes this issue. Signed-off-by: Aditya Pakki Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net: caif: Fix debugfs on 64-bit platforms

2019-11-09T10:52:56+00:00

"ser_device.state" is "unsigned long", i.e. 32-bit or 64-bit, depending on the platform. Hence casting its address to "u32 *", and calling debugfs_create_x32() breaks operation on 64-bit platforms. Fix this by using the new debugfs_create_xul() helper instead.

caif: no need to check return value of debugfs_create functions

2019-08-12T04:31:25+00:00

When calling debugfs functions, there is no need to ever check the return value. The function can work or not, but the code logic should never do something different based on this.

net: caif: call dev_consume_skb_any when skb xmit done

2019-01-29T18:09:28+00:00

The skb shouled be consumed when xmit done, it makes drop profiles (dropwatch, perf) more friendly. dev_kfree_skb_irq()/kfree_skb() shouled be replaced by dev_consume_skb_any(), it makes code cleaner. Signed-off-by: Yang Wei Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

networking: introduce and use skb_put_data()

2017-06-16T15:48:37+00:00

A common pattern with skb_put() is to just want to memcpy() some data into the new space, introduce skb_put_data() for this. An spatch similar to the one for skb_put_zero() converts many of the places using it: @@ identifier p, p2; expression len, skb, data; type t, t2; @@ ( -p = skb_put(skb, len); +p = skb_put_data(skb, data, len); | -p = (t)skb_put(skb, len); +p = skb_put_data(skb, data, len); ) ( p2 = (t2)p; -memcpy(p2, data, len); | -memcpy(p, data, len); ) @@ type t, t2; identifier p, p2; expression skb, data; @@ t *p; ... ( -p = skb_put(skb, sizeof(t)); +p = skb_put_data(skb, data, sizeof(t)); | -p = (t *)skb_put(skb, sizeof(t)); +p = skb_put_data(skb, data, sizeof(t)); ) ( p2 = (t2)p; -memcpy(p2, data, sizeof(*p)); | -memcpy(p, data, sizeof(*p)); ) @@ expression skb, len, data; @@ -memcpy(skb_put(skb, len), data, len); +skb_put_data(skb, data, len); (again, manually post-processed to retain some comments) Reviewed-by: Stephen Hemminger Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg Signed-off-by: David S.

net: Fix inconsistent teardown and release of private netdev state.

2017-06-07T19:53:24+00:00

Network devices can allocate reasources and private memory using netdev_ops->ndo_init(). However, the release of these resources can occur in one of two different places. Either netdev_ops->ndo_uninit() or netdev->destructor(). The decision of which operation frees the resources depends upon whether it is necessary for all netdev refs to be released before it is safe to perform the freeing. netdev_ops->ndo_uninit() presumably can occur right after the NETDEV_UNREGISTER notifier completes and the unicast and multicast address lists are flushed. netdev->destructor(), on the other hand, does not run until the netdev references all go away. Further complicating the situation is that netdev->destructor() almost universally does also a free_netdev(). This creates a problem for the logic in register_netdevice(). Because all callers of register_netdevice() manage the freeing of the netdev, and invoke free_netdev(dev) if register_netdevice() fails. If netdev_ops->ndo_init() succeeds, but something else fails inside of register_netdevice(), it does call ndo_ops->ndo_uninit(). But it is not able to invoke netdev->destructor(). This is because netdev->destructor() will do a free_netdev() and then the caller of register_netdevice() will do the same. However, this means that the resources that would normally be released by netdev->destructor() will not be. Over the years drivers have added local hacks to deal with this, by invoking their destructor parts by hand when register_netdevice() fails. Many drivers do not try to deal with this, and instead we have leaks. Let's close this hole by formalizing the distinction between what private things need to be freed up by netdev->destructor() and whether the driver needs unregister_netdevice() to perform the free_netdev(). netdev->priv_destructor() performs all actions to free up the private resources that used to be freed by netdev->destructor(), except for free_netdev(). netdev->needs_free_netdev is a boolean that indicates whether free_netdev() should be done at the end of unregister_netdevice(). Now, register_netdevice() can sanely release all resources after ndo_ops->ndo_init() succeeds, by invoking both ndo_ops->ndo_uninit() and netdev->priv_destructor(). And at the end of unregister_netdevice(), we invoke netdev->priv_destructor() and optionally call free_netdev(). Signed-off-by: David S. Miller
