2016-09-17mwifiex: fix null pointer deference when adapter is nullColin Ian King
If adapter is null the error exit path in mwifiex_shutdown_sw is to down the semaphore sem and print some debug via mwifiex_dbg. However, passing a NULL adapter to mwifiex_dbg causes a null pointer deference when accessing adapter->dev. This fix checks for a null adapter at the start of the function and to exit without the need to up the semaphore and we also skip the debug to avoid the null pointer dereference.

Moreover, some other error paths in this function return ERR_PTR values which are assigned without checking to the regd field in the mwifiex_adapter struct. The latter is only null-checked where used. Fix by freeing regd in the error path, and only update priv->adapter->regd if the returned pointer is valid.

2016-09-17bna: fix crash in bnad_get_strings()Ivan Vecera
Commit 6e7333d "net: add rx_nohandler stat counter" added the new entry rx_nohandler into struct rtnl_link_stats64. Unfortunately the bna driver foolishly depends on the structure. It uses part of it for ethtool statistics and it's not bad but the driver assumes its size is constant as it defines string for each existing entry. The problem occurs when the structure is extended because you need to modify bna driver as well. If not any attempt to retrieve ethtool statistics results in crash in bnad_get_strings(). The patch changes BNAD_ETHTOOL_STATS_NUM so it counts real number of strings in the array and also removes rtnl_link_stats64 entries that are not used in output and are always zero.

the test creates 3 namespaces with veth connected via bridge. First two namespaces simulate two different hosts with the same IPv4 and IPv6 addresses configured on the tunnel interface and they communicate with outside world via standard tunnels. Third namespace creates collect_md tunnel that is driven by BPF program which selects different remote host (either first or second namespace) based on tcp dest port number while tcp dst ip is the same. This scenario is rough approximation of load balancer use case. The tests check both traditional tunnel configuration and collect_md mode.

2016-09-17tcp: prepare skbs for better sack shiftingEric Dumazet
With large BDP TCP flows and lossy networks, it is very important to keep a low number of skbs in the write queue. RACK and SACK processing can perform a linear scan of it. We should avoid putting any payload in skb->head, so that SACK shifting can be done if needed. With this patch, we allow to pack ~0.5 MB per skb instead of the 64KB initially cooked at tcp_sendmsg() time. This gives a reduction of number of skbs in write queue by eight. tcp_rack_detect_loss() likes this. We still allow payload in skb->head for first skb put in the queue, to not impact RPC workloads.

2016-09-17net: avoid sk_forward_alloc overflowsEric Dumazet
A malicious TCP receiver, sending SACK, can force the sender to split skbs in write queue and increase its memory usage. Then, when socket is closed and its write queue purged, we might overflow sk_forward_alloc (It becomes negative) sk_mem_reclaim() does nothing in this case, and more than 2GB are leaked from TCP perspective (tcp_memory_allocated is not changed) Then warnings trigger from inet_sock_destruct() and sk_stream_kill_queues() seeing a not zero sk_forward_alloc All TCP stack can be stuck because TCP is under memory pressure. A simple fix is to preemptively reclaim from sk_mem_uncharge(). This makes sure a socket wont have more than 2 MB forward allocated, after burst and idle period.

In case of error during netback_probe() (e.g. an entry missing on the xenstore) netback_remove() is called on the new device, which will set the device backend state to XenbusStateClosed by calling set_backend_state(). However, the backend state wasn't initialized by netback_probe() at this point, which will cause and invalid transaction and set_backend_state() to BUG(). Initialize the backend state at the beginning of netback_probe() to XenbusStateInitialising, and create two new valid state transitions on set_backend_state(), from XenbusStateInitialising to XenbusStateClosed, and from XenbusStateInitialising to XenbusStateInitWait.

The first patch gives a slight degradation, but opens the opportunity to using a simple page-cache mechanism of a fair size. The page-cache, implemented in patch 3, not only closes the performance gap but even gives a gain.

2016-09-17net/mlx5e: Single flow order-0 pages for Striding RQTariq Toukan
To improve the memory consumption scheme, we omit the flow that demands and splits high-order pages in Striding RQ, and stay with a single Striding RQ flow that uses order-0 pages. Moving to fragmented memory allows the use of larger MPWQEs, which reduces the number of UMR posts and filler CQEs. Moving to a single flow allows several optimizations that improve performance, especially in production servers where we would anyway fallback to order-0 allocations: - inline functions that were called via function pointers. - improve the UMR post process. This patch alone is expected to give a slight performance reduction. However, the new memory scheme gives the possibility to use a page-cache of a fair size, that doesn't inflate the memory footprint, which will dramatically fix the reduction and even give a performance gain. Performance tests: The following results were measured on a freshly booted system, giving optimal baseline performance, as high-order pages are yet to be fragmented and depleted. We ran pktgen single-stream benchmarks, with iptables-raw-drop: Single stride, 64 bytes: * 4,739,057 - baseline * 4,749,550 - this patch no reduction Larger packets, no page cross, 1024 bytes: * 3,982,361 - baseline * 3,845,682 - this patch 3.5% reduction Larger packets, every 3rd packet crosses a page, 1500 bytes: * 3,731,189 - baseline * 3,579,414 - this patch 4% reduction Fixes: 461017cb006a ("net/mlx5e: Support RX multi-packet WQE (Striding RQ)") Fixes: bc77b240b3c5 ("net/mlx5e: Add fragmented memory support for RX multi packet WQE") Signed-off-by: Tariq Toukan <tariqt@mellanox.com> Signed-off-by: Saeed Mahameed <saeedm@mellanox.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2016-09-17rxrpc: Add config to inject packet lossDavid Howells
Add a configuration option to inject packet loss by discarding approximately every 8th packet received and approximately every 8th DATA packet transmitted. Note that no locking is used, but it shouldn't really matter. Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>
2016-09-17rxrpc: Improve skb tracingDavid Howells
Improve sk_buff tracing within AF_RXRPC by the following means: (1) Use an enum to note the event type rather than plain integers and use an array of event names rather than a big multi ?: list. (2) Distinguish Rx from Tx packets and account them separately. This requires the call phase to be tracked so that we know what we might find in rxtx_buffer[]. (3) Add a parameter to rxrpc_{new,see,get,free}_skb() to indicate the event type. (4) A pair of 'rotate' events are added to indicate packets that are about to be rotated out of the Rx and Tx windows. (5) A pair of 'lost' events are added, along with rxrpc_lose_skb() for packet loss injection recording. Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>
2016-09-17rxrpc: Remove printks from rxrpc_recvmsg_data() to fix uninit varDavid Howells
