2015-07-09inet: inet_twsk_deschedule factorizationEric Dumazet
inet_twsk_deschedule() calls are followed by inet_twsk_put(). Only particular case is in inet_twsk_purge() but there is no point to defer the inet_twsk_put() after re-enabling BH. Lets rename inet_twsk_deschedule() to inet_twsk_deschedule_put() and move the inet_twsk_put() inside. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2015-07-09inet: simplify timewait refcountingEric Dumazet
timewait sockets have a complex refcounting logic. Once we realize it should be similar to established and syn_recv sockets, we can use sk_nulls_del_node_init_rcu() and remove inet_twsk_unhash() In particular, deferred inet_twsk_put() added in commit 13475a30b66cd ("tcp: connect() race with timewait reuse") looks unecessary : When removing a timewait socket from ehash or bhash, caller must own a reference on the socket anyway.

2015-07-09tcp: update congestion state first before raising cwndYuchung Cheng
The congestion state and cwnd can be updated in the wrong order. For example, upon receiving a dubious ACK, we incorrectly raise the cwnd first (tcp_may_raise_cwnd()/tcp_cong_avoid()) because the state is still Open, then enter recovery state to reduce cwnd. For another example, if the ACK indicates spurious timeout or retransmits, we first revert the cwnd reduction and congestion state back to Open state. But we don't raise the cwnd even though the ACK does not indicate any congestion. To fix this problem we should first call tcp_fastretrans_alert() to process the dubious ACK and update the congestion state, then call tcp_may_raise_cwnd() that raises cwnd based on the current state.

2015-07-09tcp: do not slow start when cwnd equals ssthreshYuchung Cheng
In the original design slow start is only used to raise cwnd when cwnd is stricly below ssthresh. It makes little sense to slow start when cwnd == ssthresh: especially when hystart has set ssthresh in the initial ramp, or after recovery when cwnd resets to ssthresh. Not doing so will also help reduce the buffer bloat slightly.

2015-07-09net: skb_defer_rx_timestamp should check for phydev before setting up classifyAlexander Duyck
This change makes it so that the call skb_defer_rx_timestamp will first check for a phydev before going in and manipulating the skb->data and skb->len values. By doing this we can avoid unnecessary work on network devices that don't support phydev. As a result we reduce the total instruction count needed to process this on most devices.

2015-07-09tcp: v1 always send a quick ack when quickacks are enabledJon Maxwell
V1 of this patch contains Eric Dumazet's suggestion to move the per dst RTAX_QUICKACK check into tcp_in_quickack_mode(). Thanks Eric. I ran some tests and after setting the "ip route change quickack 1" knob there were still many delayed ACKs sent. This occured because when icsk_ack.quick=0 the !icsk_ack.pingpong value is subsequently ignored as tcp_in_quickack_mode() checks both these values. The condition for a quick ack to trigger requires that both icsk_ack.quick != 0 and icsk_ack.pingpong=0. Currently only icsk_ack.pingpong is controlled by the knob. But the icsk_ack.quick value changes dynamically depending on heuristics. The crux of the matter is that delayed acks still cannot be entirely disabled even with the RTAX_QUICKACK per dst knob enabled. This patch ensures that a quick ack is always sent when the RTAX_QUICKACK per dst knob is turned on. The "ip route change quickack 1" knob was recently added to enable quickacks. It was modeled around the TCP_QUICKACK setsockopt() option. This issue is that even with "ip route change quickack 1" enabled we still see delayed ACKs under some conditions. It would be nice to be able to completely disable delayed ACKs. Here is an example: # netstat -s|grep dela 3 delayed acks sent For all routes enable the knob # ip route change quickack 1 Generate some traffic across a slow link and we still see the delayed acks. # netstat -s|grep dela 106 delayed acks sent 1 delayed acks further delayed because of locked socket The issue is that both the "ip route change quickack 1" knob and the TCP_QUICKACK option set the icsk_ack.pingpong variable to 0. However at the business end in the __tcp_ack_snd_check() routine, tcp_in_quickack_mode() checks that both icsk_ack.quick != 0 and icsk_ack.pingpong=0 in order to trigger a quickack. As icsk_ack.quick is determined by heuristics it can be 0. When that occurs the icsk_ack.pingpong value is ignored and a delayed ACK is sent regardless. This patch moves the RTAX_QUICKACK per dst check into the tcp_in_quickack_mode() routine which ensures that a quickack is always sent when the quickack knob is enabled for that dst.

2015-07-09libceph: treat sockaddr_storage with uninitialized family as blankIlya Dryomov
addr_is_blank() should return true if family is neither AF_INET nor AF_INET6. This is what its counterpart entity_addr_t::is_blank_ip() is doing and it is the right thing to do: in process_banner() we check if our address is blank and if it is "learn" it from our peer. As it is, we never learn our address and always send out a blank one. This goes way back to ceph.git commit dd732cbfc1c9 ("use sockaddr_storage; and some ipv6 support groundwork") from 2009.

Pablo Neira Ayuso says: ==================== Netfilter fixes for net The following patchset contains Netfilter fixes for your net tree. This batch mostly comes with patches to address fallout from the previous merge window cycle, they are: 1) Use entry->state.hook_list from nf_queue() instead of the global nf_hooks which is not valid when used from NFPROTO_NETDEV, this should cause no problems though since we have no userspace queueing for that family, but let's fix this now for the sake of correctness. Patch from Eric W. Biederman. 2) Fix compilation breakage in bridge netfilter if CONFIG_NF_DEFRAG_IPV4 is not set, from Bernhard Thaler. 3) Use percpu jumpstack in arptables too, now that there's a single copy of the rule blob we can't store the return address there anymore. Patch from Florian Westphal. 4) Fix a skb leak in the xmit path of bridge netfilter, problem there since 2.6.37 although it should be not possible to hit invalid traffic there, also from Florian. 5) Eric Leblond reports that when loading a large ruleset with many missing modules after a fresh boot, nf_tables can take long time commit it. Fix this by processing the full batch until the end, even on missing modules, then abort only once and restart processing. 6) Add bridge netfilter files to the MAINTAINER files. 7) Fix a net_device refcount leak in the new IPV6 bridge netfilter code, from Julien Grall. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

2015-07-08bridge: mdb: zero out the local br_ip variable before useNikolay Aleksandrov
Since commit b0e9a30dd669 ("bridge: Add vlan id to multicast groups") there's a check in br_ip_equal() for a matching vlan id, but the mdb functions were not modified to use (or at least zero it) so when an entry was added it would have a garbage vlan id (from the local br_ip variable in __br_mdb_add/del) and this would prevent it from being matched and also deleted. So zero out the whole local ip var to protect ourselves from future changes and also to fix the current bug, since there's no vlan id support in the mdb uapi - use always vlan id 0.

2015-07-08rtnetlink: verify IFLA_VF_INFO attributes before passing them to driverDaniel Borkmann
Jason Gunthorpe reported that since commit c02db8c6290b ("rtnetlink: make SR-IOV VF interface symmetric"), we don't verify IFLA_VF_INFO attributes anymore with respect to their policy, that is, ifla_vfinfo_policy[]. Before, they were part of ifla_policy[], but they have been nested since placed under IFLA_VFINFO_LIST, that contains the attribute IFLA_VF_INFO, which is another nested attribute for the actual VF attributes such as IFLA_VF_MAC, IFLA_VF_VLAN, etc. Despite the policy being split out from ifla_policy[] in this commit, it's never applied anywhere. nla_for_each_nested() only does basic nla_ok() testing for struct nlattr, but it doesn't know about the data context and their requirements. Fix, on top of Jason's initial work, does 1) parsing of the attributes with the right policy, and 2) using the resulting parsed attribute table from 1) instead of the nla_for_each_nested() loop (just like we used to do when still part of ifla_policy[]).

2015-07-08tcp: PRR uses CRB mode by default and SS mode conditionallyYuchung Cheng
PRR slow start is often too aggressive especially when drops are caused by traffic policers. The policers mainly use token bucket to enforce the rate so sending (twice) faster than the delivery rate causes excessive drops. This patch changes PRR to the conservative reduction bound (CRB) mode in RFC 6937 by default. CRB follows the packet conservation rule to send at most the delivery rate by default. But if many packets are lost and the pipe is empty, CRB may take N round trips to repair N losses. We conditionally turn on slow start mode if all these conditions are made to speed up the recovery: 1) on the second round or later in recovery 2) retransmission sent in the previous round is delivered on this ACK 3) no retransmission is marked lost on this ACK By using packet conservation by default, this change reduces the loss retransmits signicantly on networks that deploy traffic policers, up to 20% reduction of overall loss rate.

2015-07-08tcp: reduce cwnd if retransmit is lost in CA_LossYuchung Cheng
If the retransmission in CA_Loss is lost again, we should not continue to slow start or raise cwnd in congestion avoidance mode. Instead we should enter fast recovery and use PRR to reduce cwnd, following the principle in RFC5681: "... or the loss of a retransmission, should be taken as two indications of congestion and, therefore, cwnd (and ssthresh) MUST be lowered twice in this case." This is especially important to reduce loss when the CA_Loss state was caused by a traffic policer dropping the entire inflight. The CA_Loss state has a problem where a loss of L packets causes the sender to send a burst of L packets. So a policer that's dropping most packets in a given RTT can cause a huge retransmit storm. By contrast, PRR includes logic to bound the number of outbound packets that result from a given ACK. So switching to CA_Recovery on lost retransmits in CA_Loss avoids this retransmit storm problem when in CA_Loss.

2015-07-04bluetooth: fix list handlingLinus Torvalds
Commit 835a6a2f8603 ("Bluetooth: Stop sabotaging list poisoning") thought that the code was sabotaging the list poisoning when NULL'ing out the list pointers and removed it. But what was going on was that the bluetooth code was using NULL pointers for the list as a way to mark it empty, and that commit just broke it (and replaced the test with NULL with a "list_empty()" test on a uninitialized list instead, breaking things even further). So fix it all up to use the regular and real list_empty() handling (which does not use NULL, but a pointer to itself), also making sure to initialize the list properly (the previous NULL case was initialized implicitly by the session being allocated with kzalloc()) This is a combination of patches by Marcel Holtmann and Tedd Ho-Jeong An. [ I would normally expect to get this through the bt tree, but I'm going to release -rc1, so I'm just committing this directly - Linus ] Reported-and-tested-by: Jörg Otte <jrg.otte@gmail.com> Cc: Alexey Dobriyan <adobriyan@gmail.com> Original-by: Tedd Ho-Jeong An <tedd.an@intel.com> Original-by: Marcel Holtmann <marcel@holtmann.org>: Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/bluetooth/bluetooth Johan Hedberg says: ==================== pull request: bluetooth 2015-07-02 A couple of regressions crept in because of a patch to use proper list APIs rather than manually reading & writing the next/prev pointers (commit 835a6a2f8603237a3e6cded5a6765090ecb06ea5). Turns out this was masking a few bugs: a missing INIT_LIST_HEAD() call and incorrectly using list_del() rather than list_del_init(). The two patches in this set fix these, and it'd be nice they could still make it to 4.2-rc1 to avoid new bug reports from users. Please let me know if there are any issues pulling.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulg/linux Pull module_init replacement part two from Paul Gortmaker: "Replace module_init with appropriate alternate initcall in non modules. This series converts non-modular code that is using the module_init() call to hook itself into the system to instead use one of our alternate priority initcalls. Unlike the previous series that used device_initcall and hence was a runtime no-op, these commits change to one of the alternate initcalls, because (a) we have them and (b) it seems like the right thing to do. For example, it would seem logical to use arch_initcall for arch specific setup code and fs_initcall for filesystem setup code. This does mean however, that changes in the init ordering will be taking place, and so there is a small risk that some kind of implicit init ordering issue may lie uncovered. But I think it is still better to give these ones sensible priorities than to just assign them all to device_initcall in order to exactly preserve the old ordering. Thad said, we have already made similar changes in core kernel code in commit c96d6660dc65 ("kernel: audit/fix non-modular users of module_init in core code") without any regressions reported, so this type of change isn't without precedent. It has also got the same local testing and linux-next coverage as all the other pull requests that I'm sending for this merge window have got.

2015-07-02netfilter: nfnetlink: keep going batch handling on missing modulesPablo Neira Ayuso
After a fresh boot with no modules in place at all and a large rulesets, the existing nfnetlink_rcv_batch() funcion can take long time to commit the ruleset due to the many abort path. This is specifically a problem for the existing client of this code, ie. nf_tables, since it results in several synchronize_rcu() call in a row. This patch changes the policy to keep full batch processing on missing modules errors so we abort only once.
