2017-02-14bridge: fdb: add proper lock checks in searching functionsNikolay Aleksandrov
In order to avoid new errors add checks to br_fdb_find and fdb_find_rcu functions. The first requires hash_lock, the second obviously RCU. Signed-off-by: Nikolay Aleksandrov <nikolay@cumulusnetworks.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2017-02-14bridge: fdb: converge fdb searching functions into oneNikolay Aleksandrov
Before this patch we had 3 different fdb searching functions which was confusing. This patch reduces all of them to one - fdb_find_rcu(), and two flavors: br_fdb_find() which requires hash_lock and br_fdb_find_rcu which requires RCU. This makes it clear what needs to be used, we also remove two abusers of __br_fdb_get which called it under hash_lock and replace them with br_fdb_find().

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jkirsher/next-queue Jeff Kirsher says: ==================== 40GbE Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2017-02-11 This series contains updates to i40e and i40evf only. Jake makes a minor change to prevent a minor bit of work, if it is not necessary. In the case where we do not have a client, there is no need to check the client params, so move the check till after we have ensured we have a client. Correct a code comment which incorrectly implied that raw_packet buffers were freed in i40e_clean_tx_ring(), so fixed the code comment to better explain where memory is freed. Reduce the severity and frequency of the message notifying we cleared the receive timestamp register, since the logic has a much better detection scheme that could detect a stalled receive timestamp register. The improved logic was actually causing the notification message to occur more frequently and was giving the user a false perception that a timestamp event was missed for a valid packet, so reduce the severity from dev_warn to dev_dbg and only fire off the message when 3 or 4 of the RXTIME registers are stalled and get cleared within the same watchdog event. Fixed a bug, where we were modifying the mac_filter outside a lock when handling the addition of broadcast filters. Fix this by updating i40e_update_filter_state logic so that it knows to avoid broadcast filters, which ensures that we do not have to remove the filter separately and can put it back using the normal flow. Refactored how we add new filters to firmware to avoid a race condition that can occur due to removing filters from the hash temporarily. Mitch adds a sleep (without timeout) so that we wait for a reply from the PF before we continue, since the iWarp client cannot continue until the operation is completed. Fixed up a function which could never return an error, to be void and cleaned up the checking of the now null and void return value. Scott limits the DMA sync to CPU to the actual length of the incoming packet, versus the syncing of the entire buffer. Also reduces the receive buffer struct (by a single pointer) and align the driver to be more consistent with other Intel drivers with respect to packets that span buffers. Sudheer adds a field to track the bus number info and modified log statements to print bus, device and function information. Henry adds the ability to store the FEC status bits from the link up event. Also adds the ethtool support for FEC capabilities and 25G link types. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

Andrew Lunn says: ==================== mv88e6xxx Watchdog support The Marvell switches have an in built watchdog over some of the internal state machine. The watchdog can be configured to raise an interrupt on error. The problem the watchdog found is then logged to the kernel log. The older switches can automagically perform a software reset when the watchdog triggers. This just resets the internal state machine, but leaves the switch configuration unchanged. The 6390 family of switches cannot both raise an interrupt and automagically perform a software reset. So the interrupt handler has to perform the switch reset, and then re-enable the watchdog interrupts. This has been tested using hacked together debugfs code which allows the "force" bit to be set, so cause a watchdog interrupt. v2: Remove g2_prefix ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

The switch contains a watchdog looking for issues with the internal gubbins of the switch. Hook the interrupt the watchdog triggers and log the value of the control register indicating why the watchdog fired. The watchdog can only be cleared with a switch reset, which will destroy the current configuration. Rather than doing this, just disable the interrupt. The mv88e6390 family has different watchdog registers. So use an ops structure, so support for the mv88e6390 family can be added later.

2017-02-11i40e: avoid race condition when sending filters to firmware for additionJacob Keller
Refactor how we add new filters to firmware to avoid a race condition that can occur due to removing filters from the hash temporarily. To understand the race condition, suppose that you have a number of MAC filters, but have not yet added any VLANs. Now, add two VLANs in rapid succession. A possible resulting flow would look something like the following: (1) lock hash for add VLAN (2) add the new MAC/VLAN combos for each current MAC filter (3) unlock hash (4) lock hash for filter sync (5) notice that we have a VLAN, so prepare to update all MAC filters with VLAN=-1 to be VLAN=0. (6) move NEW and REMOVE filters to temporary list (7) unlock hash (8) lock hash for add VLAN (9) add new MAC/VLAN combos. Notice that no MAC filters are currently in the hash list, so we don't add any VLANs <--- BUG! (10) unlock hash (11) sync the temporary lists to firmware (12) lock hash for post-sync (13) move the temporary elements back to the main list .... Because we take filters out of the main hash into temporary lists, we introduce a narrow window where it is possible that other callers to the list will not see some of the filters which were previously added but have not yet been finalized. This results in sometimes dropping VLAN additions, and could also result in failing to add a MAC address on the newly added VLAN. One obvious way to avoid this race condition would be to lock the entire firmware process. Unfortunately this does not work because adminq firmware commands take a mutex which results in a sleep while atomic BUG(). So, we can't use the simplest approach. An alternative approach is to simply not remove the filters from the hash list while adding. Instead, add an i40e_new_mac_filter structure which we will use to track added filters. This avoids the need to remove the filter from the hash list. We'll store a pointer to the original i40e_mac_filter, along with our own copy of the state. We won't update the state directly, so as to avoid race with other code that may modify the state while under the lock. We are safe to read f->macaddr and f->vlan since these only change in two locations. The first is on filter creation, which must have already occurred. The second is inside i40e_correct_vlan_filters which was previously run after creation of this object and can't be run again until after. Thus, we should be safe to read the MAC address and VLAN while outside the lock. We also aren't going to run into a use-after-free issue because the only place where we free filters is when they are marked FAILED or when we remove them inside the sync subtask. Since the subtask has its own critical flag to prevent duplicate runs, we know this won't happen. We also know that the only location to transition a filter from NEW to FAILED is inside the subtask also, so we aren't worried about that either. Use the wrapper i40e_new_mac_filter for additions, and once we've finalized the addition to firmware, we will update the filter state inside a lock, and then free the wrapper structure. In order to avoid a possible race condition with filter deletion, we won't update the original filter state unless it is still I40E_FILTER_NEW when we finish the firmware sync. This approach is more complex, but avoids race conditions related to filters being temporarily removed from the list. We do not need the same behavior for deletion because we always unconditionally removed the filters from the list regardless of the firmware status.

2017-02-11i40e: allow i40e_update_filter_state to skip broadcast filtersJacob Keller
Fix a bug where we modified the mac_filter_hash while outside a lock, when handling addition of broadcast filters. Normally, we add filters to firmware by batching the additions into lists and issuing 1 update for every few filters. Broadcast filters are handled differently, by instead setting the broadcast promiscuous mode flags. In order to make sure the 1<->1 mapping of filters in our addition array lined up with filters in the hlist tmp_add_list, we had to remove the filter and move it back to the main hash. However, we didn't do this under lock, which could cause consistency problems for the list. Fix this by updating i40e_update_filter_state logic so that it knows to avoid broadcast filters. This ensures that we don't have to remove the filter separately, and can put it back using the normal flow.
