| * genirq: Handle pending irqs in irq_startup()Thomas Gleixner2012-02-154-11/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | An interrupt might be pending when irq_startup() is called, but the startup code does not invoke the resend logic. In some cases this prevents the device from issuing another interrupt which renders the device non functional. Call the resend function in irq_startup() to keep things going.

| * genirq: Unmask oneshot irqs when thread was not wokenThomas Gleixner2012-02-151-2/+23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When the primary handler of an interrupt which is marked IRQ_ONESHOT returns IRQ_HANDLED or IRQ_NONE, then the interrupt thread is not woken and the unmask logic of the interrupt line is never invoked. This keeps the interrupt masked forever. This was not noticed as most IRQ_ONESHOT users wake the thread unconditionally (usually because they cannot access the underlying device from hard interrupt context). Though this behaviour was nowhere documented and not necessarily intentional. Some drivers can avoid the thread wakeup in certain cases and run into the situation where the interrupt line s kept masked. Handle it gracefully.

Changing it back to WB - not so much. The crux of the matter is that the code that does this (__page_change_att_set_clr) has only limited information so when it tries to the change it gets the "raw" unfiltered information instead of the properly filtered one - and the "raw" one tell it that PSE bit is on (while infact it is not). As a result when the PTE is set to be WB from WC, we get tons of: :WARNING: at arch/x86/xen/mmu.c:475 xen_make_pte+0x67/0xa0() :Hardware name: HP xw4400 Workstation .. snip.. :Pid: 27, comm: kswapd0 Tainted: G W 3.2.2-1.fc16.x86_64 #1 :Call Trace: : [<ffffffff8106dd1f>] warn_slowpath_common+0x7f/0xc0 : [<ffffffff8106dd7a>] warn_slowpath_null+0x1a/0x20 : [<ffffffff81005a17>] xen_make_pte+0x67/0xa0 : [<ffffffff810051bd>] __raw_callee_save_xen_make_pte+0x11/0x1e : [<ffffffff81040e15>] ? __change_page_attr_set_clr+0x9d5/0xc00 : [<ffffffff8114c2e8>] ? __purge_vmap_area_lazy+0x158/0x1d0 : [<ffffffff8114cca5>] ? vm_unmap_aliases+0x175/0x190 : [<ffffffff81041168>] change_page_attr_set_clr+0x128/0x4c0 : [<ffffffff81041542>] set_pages_array_wb+0x42/0xa0 : [<ffffffff8100a9b2>] ? check_events+0x12/0x20 : [<ffffffffa0074d4c>] ttm_pages_put+0x1c/0x70 [ttm] : [<ffffffffa0074e98>] ttm_page_pool_free+0xf8/0x180 [ttm] : [<ffffffffa0074f78>] ttm_pool_mm_shrink+0x58/0x90 [ttm] : [<ffffffff8112ba04>] shrink_slab+0x154/0x310 : [<ffffffff8112f17a>] balance_pgdat+0x4fa/0x6c0 : [<ffffffff8112f4b8>] kswapd+0x178/0x3d0 : [<ffffffff815df134>] ? __schedule+0x3d4/0x8c0 : [<ffffffff81090410>] ? remove_wait_queue+0x50/0x50 : [<ffffffff8112f340>] ? balance_pgdat+0x6c0/0x6c0 : [<ffffffff8108fb6c>] kthread+0x8c/0xa0 for every page. The proper fix for this is has been posted and is https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/2/10/228 "x86/cpa: Use pte_attrs instead of pte_flags on CPA/set_p.._wb/wc operations." along with a detailed description of the problem and solution. But since that posting has gone nowhere I am proposing this band-aid solution so that at least users don't get the page corruption (the pages that are WC don't get changed to WB and end up being recycled for filesystem or other things causing mysterious crashes). The negative impact of this patch is that users of WC flag (which are InfiniBand, radeon, nouveau drivers) won't be able to set that flag - so they are going to see performance degradation. But stability is more important here. Fixes RH BZ# 742032, 787403, and 745574 Signed-off-by: Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk <konrad.wilk@oracle.com>

From Ben McKeegan. 17) Fix regression of ->ip_summed initialization in sfc driver. From Ben Hutchings. 18) Bluetooth timeout mistakenly using msecs instead of jiffies, from Andrzej Kaczmarek. 19) Using _sync variant of work cancellation results in deadlocks, use the non _sync variants instead. From Andre Guedes. 20) Bluetooth rfcomm code had reference counting problems leading to crashes, fix from Octavian Purdila. 21) The conversion of netem over to classful qdisc handling added two bugs to netem_dequeue(), fixes from Eric Dumazet. 22) Missing pci_iounmap() in ATM Solos driver. Fix from Julia Lawall. 23) b44_pci_exit() should not have __exit tag since it's invoked from non-__exit code. From Nikola Pajkovsky. 24) The conversion of the neighbour hash tables over to RCU added a race, fixed here by adding the necessary reread of tbl->nht, fix from Michel Machado. 25) When we added VF (virtual function) attributes for network device dumps, this potentially bloats up the size of the dump of one network device such that the dump size is too large for the buffer allocated by properly written netlink applications. In particular, if you add 255 VFs to a network device, parts of GLIBC stop working. To fix this, we add an attribute that is used to turn on these extended portions of the network device dump. Sophisticaed applications like 'ip' that want to see this stuff will be changed to set the attribute, whereas things like GLIBC that don't care about VFs simply will not, and therefore won't be busted by the mere presence of VFs on a network device. Thanks to the tireless work of Greg Rose on this fix. * git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net: (53 commits) sfc: Fix assignment of ip_summed for pre-allocated skbs ppp: fix 'ppp_mp_reconstruct bad seq' errors enic: Fix endianness bug. gre: fix spelling in comments netfilter: ctnetlink: fix soft lockup when netlink adds new entries (v2) Revert "netfilter: ctnetlink: fix soft lockup when netlink adds new entries" davinci_emac: Do not free all rx dma descriptors during init mlx4_core: Fixing array indexes when setting port types phy: IC+101G and PHY_HAS_INTERRUPT flag netdev/phy/icplus: Correct broken phy_init code ipsec: be careful of non existing mac headers Move Logitech Harmony 900 from cdc_ether to zaurus hso: memsetting wrong data in hso_get_count() netfilter: ip6_route_output() never returns NULL. ethernet/broadcom: ip6_route_output() never returns NULL. ipv6: ip6_route_output() never returns NULL. jme: Fix FIFO flush issue atm: clip: remove clip_tbl ipv4: ping: Fix recvmsg MSG_OOB error handling. rtnetlink: Fix problem with buffer allocation ...

We used to change it back to CHECKSUM_NONE when the received packet had an incorrect checksum or unhandled protocol. Commit bc8acf2c8c3e43fcc192762a9f964b3e9a17748b ('drivers/net: avoid some skb->ip_summed initializations') mistakenly replaced the latter assignment with a DEBUG-only assertion that ip_summed == CHECKSUM_NONE. This assertion is always false, but it seems no-one has exercised this code path in a DEBUG build. Fix this by moving our assignment of CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY into efx_rx_packet_gro().

This results in some discarded fragments remaining in the queue, and triggering a 'bad seq' error on the subsequent call to ppp_mp_reconstruct. Fragments are discarded whenever other fragments of the same frame have been lost. This can generate a lot of unwanted and misleading log messages. This patch also adds additional detail to the debug logging to make it clearer which fragments were lost and which other fragments were discarded as a result of losses.

This is because the nf_conntrack_lock is held while nf_conntrack_alloc is called, which is in turn wants to lock nf_conntrack_lock while evicting entries from the full table. The patch fixes the soft lockup with limiting the holding of the nf_conntrack_lock to the minimum, where it's absolutely required. It required to extend (and thus change) nf_conntrack_hash_insert so that it makes sure conntrack and ctnetlink do not add the same entry twice to the conntrack table.

If the link is not ok, the skb is freed and no new dma descriptor added to the rx dma channel. This causes trouble during initialization when the carrier status has not yet been updated. If a lot of packets are received while netif_carrier_ok returns false, all dma descriptors are freed and the rx dma transfer is stopped. The bug occurs when the board is connected to a network with lots of traffic and the ifconfig down/up is done, e.g., when reconfiguring the interface with DHCP. The bug can be reproduced by flood pinging the davinci board while doing ifconfig eth0 down ifconfig eth0 up on the board. After that, the rx path stops working and the overrun value reported by ifconfig is counting up. This patch reverts commit 0a5f38467765ee15478db90d81e40c269c8dda20 and instead issues warnings only if cpdma_chan_submit returns -ENOMEM.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Marcell Zambo and Janos Farago noticed and reported that when new conntrack entries are added via netlink and the conntrack table gets full, soft lockup happens. This is because the nf_conntrack_lock is held while nf_conntrack_alloc is called, which is in turn wants to lock nf_conntrack_lock while evicting entries from the full table. The patch fixes the soft lockup with limiting the holding of the nf_conntrack_lock to the minimum, where it's absolutely required.

These are the results of these values on different platforms: x86 x86_64 ppc __alignof__(_xt_align) 4 8 8 __alignof__(ebt_replace) 4 8 4 ebtables fails to add rules which use the among extension. I'm using kernel 2.6.33 and ebtables 2.0.10-4 According to Bart De Schuymer, userspace alignment was changed to _xt_align to fix an alignment issue on a userspace32-kernel64 system (he thinks it was for an ARM device). So userspace must be right. The kernel alignment macro needs to change so it also uses _xt_align instead of ebt_replace. The userspace changes date back from June 29, 2009.

However, if nf_queue is called via bridge netfilter, the mac header won't be preserved -- packets will thus contain a bogus mac header. Fix this by setting skb->data to the mac header when skb->nf_bridge is set and restoring skb->data afterwards for all segments.

The mask is a 32 bit value that can be used to indicate to the kernel that certain extended ifinfo values are requested by the user application. At this time the only mask value defined is RTEXT_FILTER_VF to indicate that the user wants the ifinfo dump to send information about the VFs belonging to the interface. This patch fixes a bug in which certain applications do not have large enough buffers to accommodate the extra information returned by the kernel with large numbers of SR-IOV virtual functions. Those applications will not send the new netlink attribute with the interface info dump request netlink messages so they will not get unexpectedly large request buffers returned by the kernel. Modifies the rtnl_calcit function to traverse the list of net devices and compute the minimum buffer size that can hold the info dumps of all matching devices based upon the filter passed in via the new netlink attribute filter mask. If no filter mask is sent then the buffer allocation defaults to NLMSG_GOODSIZE. With this change it is possible to add yet to be defined netlink attributes to the dump request which should make it fairly extensible in the future.

Assume that function neigh_periodic_work calls cond_resched, that is, the lock tbl->lock is available, and function neigh_hash_grow runs. 3. Once function neigh_hash_grow finishes, and RCU calls neigh_hash_free_rcu, the original struct neigh_hash_table that function neigh_periodic_work was using doesn't exist anymore. 4. Once back at neigh_periodic_work, whenever the old struct neigh_hash_table is accessed, things can go badly.
