Pull networking updates from David Miller: 1) The addition of nftables. No longer will we need protocol aware firewall filtering modules, it can all live in userspace. At the core of nftables is a, for lack of a better term, virtual machine that executes byte codes to inspect packet or metadata (arriving interface index, etc.) and make verdict decisions. Besides support for loading packet contents and comparing them, the interpreter supports lookups in various datastructures as fundamental operations. For example sets are supports, and therefore one could create a set of whitelist IP address entries which have ACCEPT verdicts attached to them, and use the appropriate byte codes to do such lookups. Since the interpreted code is composed in userspace, userspace can do things like optimize things before giving it to the kernel. Another major improvement is the capability of atomically updating portions of the ruleset. In the existing netfilter implementation, one has to update the entire rule set in order to make a change and this is very expensive. Userspace tools exist to create nftables rules using existing netfilter rule sets, but both kernel implementations will need to co-exist for quite some time as we transition from the old to the new stuff. Kudos to Patrick McHardy, Pablo Neira Ayuso, and others who have worked so hard on this. 2) Daniel Borkmann and Hannes Frederic Sowa made several improvements to our pseudo-random number generator, mostly used for things like UDP port randomization and netfitler, amongst other things. In particular the taus88 generater is updated to taus113, and test cases are added. 3) Support 64-bit rates in HTB and TBF schedulers, from Eric Dumazet and Yang Yingliang. 4) Add support for new 577xx tigon3 chips to tg3 driver, from Nithin Sujir. 5) Fix two fatal flaws in TCP dynamic right sizing, from Eric Dumazet, Neal Cardwell, and Yuchung Cheng. 6) Allow IP_TOS and IP_TTL to be specified in sendmsg() ancillary control message data, much like other socket option attributes. From Francesco Fusco. 7) Allow applications to specify a cap on the rate computed automatically by the kernel for pacing flows, via a new SO_MAX_PACING_RATE socket option. From Eric Dumazet. 8) Make the initial autotuned send buffer sizing in TCP more closely reflect actual needs, from Eric Dumazet. 9) Currently early socket demux only happens for TCP sockets, but we can do it for connected UDP sockets too. Implementation from Shawn Bohrer. 10) Refactor inet socket demux with the goal of improving hash demux performance for listening sockets. With the main goals being able to use RCU lookups on even request sockets, and eliminating the listening lock contention. From Eric Dumazet. 11) The bonding layer has many demuxes in it's fast path, and an RCU conversion was started back in 3.11, several changes here extend the RCU usage to even more locations. From Ding Tianhong and Wang Yufen, based upon suggestions by Nikolay Aleksandrov and Veaceslav Falico. 12) Allow stackability of segmentation offloads to, in particular, allow segmentation offloading over tunnels. From Eric Dumazet. 13) Significantly improve the handling of secret keys we input into the various hash functions in the inet hashtables, TCP fast open, as well as syncookies. From Hannes Frederic Sowa. The key fundamental operation is "net_get_random_once()" which uses static keys. Hannes even extended this to ipv4/ipv6 fragmentation handling and our generic flow dissector. 14) The generic driver layer takes care now to set the driver data to NULL on device removal, so it's no longer necessary for drivers to explicitly set it to NULL any more. Many drivers have been cleaned up in this way, from Jingoo Han. 15) Add a BPF based packet scheduler classifier, from Daniel Borkmann. 16) Improve CRC32 interfaces and generic SKB checksum iterators so that SCTP's checksumming can more cleanly be handled. Also from Daniel Borkmann. 17) Add a new PMTU discovery mode, IP_PMTUDISC_INTERFACE, which forces using the interface MTU value. This helps avoid PMTU attacks, particularly on DNS servers. From Hannes Frederic Sowa. 18) Use generic XPS for transmit queue steering rather than internal (re-)implementation in virtio-net. From Jason Wang. * git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net-next: (1622 commits) random32: add test cases for taus113 implementation random32: upgrade taus88 generator to taus113 from errata paper random32: move rnd_state to linux/random.h random32: add prandom_reseed_late() and call when nonblocking pool becomes initialized random32: add periodic reseeding random32: fix off-by-one in seeding requirement PHY: Add RTL8201CP phy_driver to realtek xtsonic: add missing platform_set_drvdata() in xtsonic_probe() macmace: add missing platform_set_drvdata() in mace_probe() ethernet/arc/arc_emac: add missing platform_set_drvdata() in arc_emac_probe() ipv6: protect for_each_sk_fl_rcu in mem_check with rcu_read_lock_bh vlan: Implement vlan_dev_get_egress_qos_mask as an inline. ixgbe: add warning when max_vfs is out of range. igb: Update link modes display in ethtool netfilter: push reasm skb through instead of original frag skbs ip6_output: fragment outgoing reassembled skb properly MAINTAINERS: mv643xx_eth: take over maintainership from Lennart net_sched: tbf: support of 64bit rates ixgbe: deleting dfwd stations out of order can cause null ptr deref ixgbe: fix build err, num_rx_queues is only available with CONFIG_RPS ...
2013-11-13exec/ptrace: fix get_dumpable() incorrect testsKees Cook1-1/+1
The get_dumpable() return value is not boolean. Most users of the function actually want to be testing for non-SUID_DUMP_USER(1) rather than SUID_DUMP_DISABLE(0). The SUID_DUMP_ROOT(2) is also considered a protected state. Almost all places did this correctly, excepting the two places fixed in this patch. Wrong logic: if (dumpable == SUID_DUMP_DISABLE) { /* be protective */ } or if (dumpable == 0) { /* be protective */ } or if (!dumpable) { /* be protective */ } Correct logic: if (dumpable != SUID_DUMP_USER) { /* be protective */ } or if (dumpable != 1) { /* be protective */ } Without this patch, if the system had set the sysctl fs/suid_dumpable=2, a user was able to ptrace attach to processes that had dropped privileges to that user. (This may have been partially mitigated if Yama was enabled.) The macros have been moved into the file that declares get/set_dumpable(), which means things like the ia64 code can see them too.

2013-09-28net: introduce SO_MAX_PACING_RATEEric Dumazet1-0/+2
As mentioned in commit afe4fd062416b ("pkt_sched: fq: Fair Queue packet scheduler"), this patch adds a new socket option. SO_MAX_PACING_RATE offers the application the ability to cap the rate computed by transport layer. Value is in bytes per second. u32 val = 1000000; setsockopt(sockfd, SOL_SOCKET, SO_MAX_PACING_RATE, &val, sizeof(val)); To be effectively paced, a flow must use FQ packet scheduler. Note that a packet scheduler takes into account the headers for its computations. The effective payload rate depends on MSS and retransmits if any. I chose to make this pacing rate a SOL_SOCKET option instead of a TCP one because this can be used by other protocols. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Cc: Steinar H.

The definition of ffs() for ia64 is almost the same as asm-generic/bitops/builtin-ffs.h. The only difference is whether it is defined as inline function or macro function.

2013-08-16Fix TLB gather virtual address range invalidation corner casesLinus Torvalds1-3/+6
Ben Tebulin reported: "Since v3.7.2 on two independent machines a very specific Git repository fails in 9/10 cases on git-fsck due to an SHA1/memory failures. This only occurs on a very specific repository and can be reproduced stably on two independent laptops. Git mailing list ran out of ideas and for me this looks like some very exotic kernel issue" and bisected the failure to the backport of commit 53a59fc67f97 ("mm: limit mmu_gather batching to fix soft lockups on !CONFIG_PREEMPT"). That commit itself is not actually buggy, but what it does is to make it much more likely to hit the partial TLB invalidation case, since it introduces a new case in tlb_next_batch() that previously only ever happened when running out of memory. The real bug is that the TLB gather virtual memory range setup is subtly buggered. It was introduced in commit 597e1c3580b7 ("mm/mmu_gather: enable tlb flush range in generic mmu_gather"), and the range handling was already fixed at least once in commit e6c495a96ce0 ("mm: fix the TLB range flushed when __tlb_remove_page() runs out of slots"), but that fix was not complete. The problem with the TLB gather virtual address range is that it isn't set up by the initial tlb_gather_mmu() initialization (which didn't get the TLB range information), but it is set up ad-hoc later by the functions that actually flush the TLB. And so any such case that forgot to update the TLB range entries would potentially miss TLB invalidates. Rather than try to figure out exactly which particular ad-hoc range setup was missing (I personally suspect it's the hugetlb case in zap_huge_pmd(), which didn't have the same logic as zap_pte_range() did), this patch just gets rid of the problem at the source: make the TLB range information available to tlb_gather_mmu(), and initialize it when initializing all the other tlb gather fields. This makes the patch larger, but conceptually much simpler. And the end result is much more understandable; even if you want to play games with partial ranges when invalidating the TLB contents in chunks, now the range information is always there, and anybody who doesn't want to bother with it won't introduce subtle bugs. Ben verified that this fixes his problem.

Pull networking updates from David Miller: "This is a re-do of the net-next pull request for the current merge window. The only difference from the one I made the other day is that this has Eliezer's interface renames and the timeout handling changes made based upon your feedback, as well as a few bug fixes that have trickeled in. Highlights: 1) Low latency device polling, eliminating the cost of interrupt handling and context switches. Allows direct polling of a network device from socket operations, such as recvmsg() and poll(). Currently ixgbe, mlx4, and bnx2x support this feature. Full high level description, performance numbers, and design in commit 0a4db187a999 ("Merge branch 'll_poll'") From Eliezer Tamir. 2) With the routing cache removed, ip_check_mc_rcu() gets exercised more than ever before in the case where we have lots of multicast addresses.

2013-06-26arch: Make __mutex_fastpath_lock_retval return whether fastpath succeeded or notMaarten Lankhorst1-6/+4
This will allow me to call functions that have multiple arguments if fastpath fails. This is required to support ticket mutexes, because they need to be able to pass an extra argument to the fail function. Originally I duplicated the functions, by adding __mutex_fastpath_lock_retval_arg. This ended up being just a duplication of the existing function, so a way to test if fastpath was called ended up being better.

Currently, pcibios_resource_to_bus() and pcibios_bus_to_resource() functions use pci_host_bridge to translate bus side address from/to cpu side address. The pci_window in pci_controller never be used again. So we remove pci_window in pci_controller and embed hostbridge resource into pci_root_info.

Since the introduction of preemptible mmu_gather TLB fast mode has been broken. TLB fast mode relies on there being absolutely no concurrency; it frees pages first and invalidates TLBs later. However now we can get concurrency and stuff goes *bang*. This patch removes all tlb_fast_mode() code; it was found the better option vs trying to patch the hole by entangling tlb invalidation with the scheduler.

2013-04-29mm/hugetlb: add more arch-defined huge_pte functionsGerald Schaefer1-0/+1
Commit abf09bed3cce ("s390/mm: implement software dirty bits") introduced another difference in the pte layout vs. the pmd layout on s390, thoroughly breaking the s390 support for hugetlbfs. This requires replacing some more pte_xxx functions in mm/hugetlbfs.c with a huge_pte_xxx version. This patch introduces those huge_pte_xxx functions and their generic implementation in asm-generic/hugetlb.h, which will now be included on all architectures supporting hugetlbfs apart from s390. This change will be a no-op for those architectures.

2013-04-02Fix initialization of CMCI/CMCP interruptsTony Luck1-0/+1
Back 2010 during a revamp of the irq code some initializations were moved from ia64_mca_init() to ia64_mca_late_init() in commit c75f2aa13f5b268aba369b5dc566088b5194377c Cannot use register_percpu_irq() from ia64_mca_init() But this was hideously wrong. First of all these initializations are now down far too late. Specifically after all the other cpus have been brought up and initialized their own CMC vectors from smp_callin(). Also ia64_mca_late_init() may be called from any cpu so the line: ia64_mca_cmc_vector_setup(); /* Setup vector on BSP */ is generally not executed on the BSP, and so the CMC vector isn't setup at all on that processor. Make use of the arch_early_irq_init() hook to get this code executed at just the right moment: not too early, not too late.

2013-03-31net: add option to enable error queue packets waking selectKeller, Jacob E1-0/+2
Currently, when a socket receives something on the error queue it only wakes up the socket on select if it is in the "read" list, that is the socket has something to read. It is useful also to wake the socket if it is in the error list, which would enable software to wait on error queue packets without waking up for regular data on the socket. The main use case is for receiving timestamped transmit packets which return the timestamp to the socket via the error queue. This enables an application to select on the socket for the error queue only instead of for the regular traffic. -v2- * Added the SO_SELECT_ERR_QUEUE socket option to every architechture specific file * Modified every socket poll function that checks error queue Signed-off-by: Jacob Keller <jacob.e.keller@intel.com> Cc: Jeffrey Kirsher <jeffrey.t.kirsher@intel.com> Cc: Richard Cochran <richardcochran@gmail.com> Cc: Matthew Vick <matthew.vick@intel.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2013-03-19Wrong asm register contraints in the futex implementationStephan Schreiber1-3/+2
The Linux Kernel contains some inline assembly source code which has wrong asm register constraints in arch/ia64/include/asm/futex.h. I observed this on Kernel 3.2.23 but it is also true on the most recent Kernel 3.9-rc1. File arch/ia64/include/asm/futex.h: static inline int futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic(u32 *uval, u32 __user *uaddr, u32 oldval, u32 newval) { if (!access_ok(VERIFY_WRITE, uaddr, sizeof(u32))) return -EFAULT; { register unsigned long r8 __asm ("r8"); unsigned long prev; __asm__ __volatile__( " mf;; \n" " mov %0=r0 \n" " mov ar.ccv=%4;; \n" "[1:] cmpxchg4.acq %1=[%2],%3,ar.ccv \n" " .xdata4 \"__ex_table\", 1b-., 2f-. \n" "[2:]" : "=r" (r8), "=r" (prev) : "r" (uaddr), "r" (newval), "rO" ((long) (unsigned) oldval) : "memory"); *uval = prev; return r8; } } The list of output registers is : "=r" (r8), "=r" (prev) The constraint "=r" means that the GCC has to maintain that these vars are in registers and contain valid info when the program flow leaves the assembly block (output registers). But "=r" also means that GCC can put them in registers that are used as input registers. Input registers are uaddr, newval, oldval on the example. The second assembly instruction " mov %0=r0 \n" is the first one which writes to a register; it sets %0 to 0. %0 means the first register operand; it is r8 here. (The r0 is read-only and always 0 on the Itanium; it can be used if an immediate zero value is needed.) This instruction might overwrite one of the other registers which are still needed. Whether it really happens depends on how GCC decides what registers it uses and how it optimizes the code. The objdump utility can give us disassembly. The futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic() function is inline, so we have to look for a module that uses the funtion. This is the cmpxchg_futex_value_locked() function in kernel/futex.c: static int cmpxchg_futex_value_locked(u32 *curval, u32 __user *uaddr, u32 uval, u32 newval) { int ret; pagefault_disable(); ret = futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic(curval, uaddr, uval, newval); pagefault_enable(); return ret; } Now the disassembly.

This is wrong. What happened here is what I explained above: An input register is overwritten which is still needed. The register operand constraints in futex.h are wrong. (The problem doesn't occur when the Kernel is compiled with GCC 4.6.) The attached patch fixes the register operand constraints in futex.h. The code after patching of it: static inline int futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic(u32 *uval, u32 __user *uaddr, u32 oldval, u32 newval) { if (!access_ok(VERIFY_WRITE, uaddr, sizeof(u32))) return -EFAULT; { register unsigned long r8 __asm ("r8") = 0; unsigned long prev; __asm__ __volatile__( " mf;; \n" " mov ar.ccv=%4;; \n" "[1:] cmpxchg4.acq %1=[%2],%3,ar.ccv \n" " .xdata4 \"__ex_table\", 1b-., 2f-. \n" "[2:]" : "+r" (r8), "=&r" (prev) : "r" (uaddr), "r" (newval), "rO" ((long) (unsigned) oldval) : "memory"); *uval = prev; return r8; } } I also initialized the 'r8' var with the C programming language. The _asm qualifier on the definition of the 'r8' var forces GCC to use the r8 processor register for it. I don't believe that we should use inline assembly for zeroing out a local variable. The constraint is "+r" (r8) what means that it is both an input register and an output register. Note that the page fault handler will modify the r8 register which will be the return value of the function. The real fix is "=&r" (prev) The & means that GCC must not use any of the input registers to place this output register in. Patched the Kernel 3.2.23 and compiled it with GCC4.4: 0000000000000230 <cmpxchg_futex_value_locked>: 230: 0b 18 80 1b 18 21 [MMI] adds r3=3168,r13;; 236: 80 40 0d 00 42 00 adds r8=40,r3 23c: 00 00 04 00 nop.i 0x0;; 240: 0b 50 00 10 10 10 [MMI] ld4 r10=[r8];; 246: 90 08 28 00 42 00 adds r9=1,r10 24c: 00 00 04 00 nop.i 0x0;; 250: 09 00 00 00 01 00 [MMI] nop.m 0x0 256: 00 48 20 20 23 00 st4 [r8]=r9 25c: 00 00 04 00 nop.i 0x0;; 260: 08 10 80 06 00 21 [MMI] adds r2=32,r3 266: 20 12 01 10 40 00 addp4 r34=r34,r0 26c: 02 08 f1 52 extr.u r16=r33,0,61 270: 05 40 00 00 00 e1 [MLX] mov r8=r0 276: ff ff 0f 00 00 e0 movl r15=0xfffffffbfff;; 27c: f1 f7 ff 65 280: 09 70 00 04 18 10 [MMI] ld8 r14=[r2] 286: 00 00 00 02 00 c0 nop.m 0x0 28c: f0 80 1c d0 cmp.ltu p6,p7=r15,r16;; 290: 08 40 fc 1d 09 3b [MMI] cmp.eq p8,p9=-1,r14 296: 00 00 00 02 00 40 nop.m 0x0 29c: e1 08 2d d0 cmp.ltu p10,p11=r14,r33 2a0: 56 01 10 00 40 10 [BBB] (p10) br.cond.spnt.few 2e0 <cmpxchg_futex_value_locked+0xb0> 2a6: 02 08 00 80 21 03 (p08) br.cond.dpnt.few 2b0 <cmpxchg_futex_value_locked+0x80> 2ac: 40 00 00 41 (p06) br.cond.spnt.few 2e0 <cmpxchg_futex_value_locked+0xb0> 2b0: 0b 00 00 00 22 00 [MMI] mf;; 2b6: 00 10 81 54 08 00 mov.m ar.ccv=r34 2bc: 00 00 04 00 nop.i 0x0;; 2c0: 09 58 8c 42 11 10 [MMI] cmpxchg4.acq r11=[r33],r35,ar.ccv 2c6: 00 00 00 02 00 00 nop.m 0x0 2cc: 00 00 04 00 nop.i 0x0;; 2d0: 10 00 2c 40 90 11 [MIB] st4 [r32]=r11 2d6: 00 00 00 02 00 00 nop.i 0x0 2dc: 20 00 00 40 br.few 2f0 <cmpxchg_futex_value_locked+0xc0> 2e0: 09 40 c8 f9 ff 27 [MMI] mov r8=-14 2e6: 00 00 00 02 00 00 nop.m 0x0 2ec: 00 00 04 00 nop.i 0x0;; 2f0: 0b 88 20 1a 19 21 [MMI] adds r17=3208,r13;; 2f6: 30 01 44 20 20 00 ld4 r19=[r17] 2fc: 00 00 04 00 nop.i 0x0;; 300: 0b 90 fc 27 3f 23 [MMI] adds r18=-1,r19;; 306: 00 90 44 20 23 00 st4 [r17]=r18 30c: 00 00 04 00 nop.i 0x0;; 310: 11 00 00 00 01 00 [MIB] nop.m 0x0 316: 00 00 00 02 00 80 nop.i 0x0 31c: 08 00 84 00 br.ret.sptk.many b0;; Much better.
