2016-11-03genetlink: fix a memory leak on error pathWANG Cong
In __genl_register_family(), when genl_validate_assign_mc_groups() fails, we forget to free the memory we possibly allocate for family->attrbuf. Note, some callers call genl_unregister_family() to clean up on error path, it doesn't work because the family is inserted to the global list in the nearly last step.

2016-11-03ehea: fix operation state reportGuilherme G. Piccoli
Currently the ehea driver is missing a call to netif_carrier_off() before the interface bring-up; this is necessary in order to initialize the __LINK_STATE_NOCARRIER bit in the net_device state field. Otherwise, we observe state UNKNOWN on "ip address" command output. This patch adds a call to netif_carrier_off() on ehea's net device open callback.

2016-11-03tcp: fix return value for partial writesEric Dumazet
After my commit, tcp_sendmsg() might restart its loop after processing socket backlog. If sk_err is set, we blindly return an error, even though we copied data to user space before. We should instead return number of bytes that could be copied, otherwise user space might resend data and corrupt the stream. This might happen if another thread is using recvmsg(MSG_ERRQUEUE) to process timestamps. Issue was diagnosed by Soheil and Willem, big kudos to them !

2016-11-03ipv4: allow local fragmentation in ip_finish_output_gso()Lance Richardson
Some configurations (e.g. geneve interface with default MTU of 1500 over an ethernet interface with 1500 MTU) result in the transmission of packets that exceed the configured MTU. While this should be considered to be a "bad" configuration, it is still allowed and should not result in the sending of packets that exceed the configured MTU. Fix by dropping the assumption in ip_finish_output_gso() that locally originated gso packets will never need fragmentation. Basic testing using iperf (observing CPU usage and bandwidth) have shown no measurable performance impact for traffic not requiring fragmentation.

2016-11-03qede: Correctly map aggregation replacement pagesMintz, Yuval
Driver allocates replacement buffers before-hand to make sure whenever an aggregation begins there would be a replacement for the Rx buffers, as we can't release the buffer until aggregation is terminated and driver logic assumes the Rx rings are always full. For every other Rx page that's being allocated [I.e., regular] the page is being completely mapped while for the replacement buffers only the first portion of the page is being mapped. This means that: a. Once replacement buffer replenishes the regular Rx ring, assuming there's more than a single packet on page we'd post unmapped memory toward HW [assuming mapping is actually done in granularity smaller than page]. b. Unmaps are being done for the entire page, which is incorrect.

This patch unconditionally clears the control buffer in ip6tunnel_xmit(), which affects ip6_tunnel, ip6_udp_tunnel and ip6_gre.

2016-10-31bgmac: stop clearing DMA receive control register right after it is setAndy Gospodarek
Current bgmac code initializes some DMA settings in the receive control register for some hardware and then immediately clears those settings. Not clearing those settings results in ~420Mbps *improvement* in throughput; this system can now receive frames at line-rate on Broadcom 5871x hardware compared to ~520Mbps today. I also tested a few other values but found there to be no discernible difference in CPU utilization even if burst size and prefetching values are different. On the hardware tested there was no need to keep the code that cleared all but bits 16-17, but since there is a wide variety of hardware that used this driver (I did not look at all hardware docs for hardware using this IP block), I find it wise to move this call up and clear bits just after reading the default value from the hardware rather than completely removing it. This is a good candidate for -stable >=3.14 since that is when the code that was supposed to improve performance (but did not) was introduced.

2016-10-31sctp: hold transport instead of assoc when lookup assoc in rx pathXin Long
Prior to this patch, in rx path, before calling lock_sock, it needed to hold assoc when got it by __sctp_lookup_association, in case other place would free/put assoc. But in __sctp_lookup_association, it lookup and hold transport, then got assoc by transport->assoc, then hold assoc and put transport. It means it didn't hold transport, yet it was returned and later on directly assigned to chunk->transport. Without the protection of sock lock, the transport may be freed/put by other places, which would cause a use-after-free issue. This patch is to fix this issue by holding transport instead of assoc. As holding transport can make sure to access assoc is also safe, and actually it looks up assoc by searching transport rhashtable, to hold transport here makes more sense.

2016-10-31mlxsw: spectrum: Fix incorrect reuse of MID entriesIdo Schimmel
In the device, a MID entry represents a group of local ports, which can later be bound to a MDB entry. The lookup of an existing MID entry is currently done using the provided MC MAC address and VID, from the Linux bridge. However, this can result in an incorrect reuse of the same MID index in different VLAN-unaware bridges (same IP MC group and VID 0). Fix this by performing the lookup based on FID instead of VID, which is unique across different bridges.

If a congestion control module doesn't provide .undo_cwnd function, tcp_undo_cwnd_reduction() will set cwnd to tp->snd_cwnd = max(tp->snd_cwnd, tp->snd_ssthresh << 1); ... which makes sense for reno (it sets ssthresh to half the current cwnd), but it makes no sense for dctcp, which sets ssthresh based on the current congestion estimate. This can cause severe growth of cwnd (eventually overflowing u32). Fix this by saving last cwnd on loss and restore cwnd based on that, similar to cubic and other algorithms.

2016-10-30r8152: Fix broken RX checksums.Mark Lord
The r8152 driver has been broken since (approx) 3.16.xx when support was added for hardware RX checksums on newer chip versions. Symptoms include random segfaults and silent data corruption over NFS. The hardware checksum logig does not work on the VER_02 dongles I have here when used with a slow embedded system CPU. Google reveals others reporting similar issues on Raspberry Pi. So, disable hardware RX checksum support for VER_02, and fix an obvious coding error for IPV6 checksums in the same function. Because this bug results in silent data corruption, it is a good candidate for back-porting to -stable >= 3.16.xx. Signed-off-by: Mark Lord <mlord@pobox.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

This patch is similar to earlier vxlan patch. Geneve device close operation frees geneve socket. This operation can race with geneve-xmit function which dereferences geneve socket. Following patch uses RCU mechanism to avoid this situation. Signed-off-by: Pravin B Shelar <pshelar@ovn.org> Acked-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2016-10-29qede: Fix out-of-bound fastpath memory accessMintz, Yuval
Driver allocates a shadow array for transmitted SKBs with X entries; That means valid indices are {0,...,X - 1}. [X == 8191] Problem is the driver also uses X as a mask for a producer/consumer in order to choose the right entry in the array which allows access to entry X which is out of bounds. To fix this, simply allocate X + 1 entries in the shadow array. Signed-off-by: Yuval Mintz <Yuval.Mintz@cavium.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2016-10-29enic: fix rq disableGovindarajulu Varadarajan
When MTU is changed from 9000 to 1500 while there is burst of inbound 9000 bytes packets, adaptor sometimes delivers 9000 bytes packets to 1500 bytes buffers. This causes memory corruption and sometimes crash. This is because of a race condition in adaptor between "RQ disable" clearing descriptor mini-cache and mini-cache valid bit being set by completion of descriptor fetch. This can result in stale RQ desc being cached and used when packets arrive. In this case, the stale descriptor have old MTU value. Solution is to write RQ->disable twice. The first write will stop any further desc fetches, allowing the second disable to clear the mini-cache valid bit without danger of a race. Also, the check for rq->running becoming 0 after writing rq->enable to 0 is not done properly. When incoming packets are flooding the interface, rq->running will pulse high for each dropped packet. Since the driver was waiting for 10us between each poll, it is possible to see rq->running = 1 1000 times in a row, even though it is not actually stuck running. This results in false failure of vnic_rq_disable(). Fix is to try more than 1000 time without delay between polls to ensure we do not miss when running goes low. In old adaptors rq->enable needs to be re-written to 0 when posted_index is reset in vnic_rq_clean() in order to keep rq->prefetch_index in sync.
