net: decreasing real_num_tx_queues needs to flush qdisc

Reducing real_num_queues needs to flush the qdisc otherwise
skbs with queue_mappings greater then real_num_tx_queues can
be sent to the underlying driver.

The flow for this is,

dev_queue_xmit()
dev_pick_tx()
skb_tx_hash()  => hash using real_num_tx_queues
skb_set_queue_mapping()
...
qdisc_enqueue_root() => enqueue skb on txq from hash

...
sch_direct_xmit()
dev_hard_start_xmit()
ndo_start_xmit(skb,dev) => skb queue set with old hash

skbs are enqueued on the qdisc with skb->queue_mapping set
0 < queue_mappings < real_num_tx_queues.  When the driver
decreases real_num_tx_queues skb's may be dequeued from the
qdisc with a queue_mapping greater then real_num_tx_queues.

This fixes a case in ixgbe where this was occurring with DCB
and FCoE. Because the driver is using queue_mapping to map
skbs to tx descriptor rings we can potentially map skbs to
rings that no longer exist.

bonding: check if clients MAC addr has changed

When two systems using bonding devices in adaptive load
balancing (ALB) communicates with each other, an endless
ping-pong of ARP replies starts between these two systems.

What happens? In the ALB mode, bonding driver keeps track
of each client connected in a hash table, so it can do the
receive load balancing (RLB). This hash table is updated
when an ARP reply is received, then it scans for the client
entry, updates its MAC address and flag it to be announced
later. Therefore, two seconds later, the alb monitor runs
and send for each updated client entry two ARP replies
updating this specific client. The same process happens on
the receiving system, causing the endless ping-pong of arp
replies.

See more information including the relevant functions below:

   System 1                          System 2
    bond0                             bond0

|                           < snipped, same as in system 1>
+-------           <-------------- send ARP reply
                   <-------------- send ARP reply

Besides the unneeded networking traffic, this loop breaks
a cluster because a backup system can't take over the IP
address. There is always one system sending an ARP reply
poisoning the network.

This patch fixes the problem adding a check for the MAC
address before updating it. Thus, if the MAC address didn't
change, there is no need to update neither to announce it later.

_never_ changes. Had somebody changed it manually,

The reason is that we always, unconditionally, ask
the device to pass up all multicast frames, but the
new code made it depend on ALLMULTI which broke it
since now we'd pass up multicast frames depending

bnx2: fix dma_get_ops compilation breakage

This removes dma_get_ops() prefetch optimization in bnx2.

bnx2 uses dma_get_ops() to see if dma_sync_single_for_cpu() is
noop. bnx2 does prefetch if it's noop.

But dma_get_ops() isn't available on all the architectures (only the
architectures that uses dma_map_ops struct have it). Using
dma_get_ops() in drivers leads to compilation breakage on many

This patch removes dma_get_ops() and changes bnx2 to do prefetch on
all the architectures. This adds useless prefetch on non-coherent
architectures but this is harmless. It is also unlikely to cause the

  status=1400 length=1536

So, it seems that gianfar actually receives the whole big frame,
and it tries to place the packet into two BDs. This situation
confuses the driver, and so the skb_put() sanity check fails.

This patch fixes the issue by adding an appropriate check, i.e.
the driver should not try to process frames with buffer
descriptor's length over rx_buffer_size (i.e. maxfrm and mrblr).

Note that sometimes eTSEC works correctly, i.e. in the second
(last) buffer descriptor bits 'truncated' and 'crcerr' are set,
and so there's no oops. Though I couldn't find any logic when

Clear IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE for teql interfaces

https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16183

The sch_teql module, which can be used to load balance over a set of
underlying interfaces, stopped working after 2.6.30 and has been
broken in all kernels since then for any underlying interface which
requires the addition of link level headers.

The problem is that the transmit routine relies on being able to
access the destination address in the skb in order to do address
resolution once it has decided which underlying interface it is going
to transmit through.

In 2.6.31 the IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE flag was introduced, and set by
default for all interfaces, which causes the destination address to be
released before the transmit routine for the interface is called.

The solution is to clear that flag for teql interfaces.

gianfar: Fix setup of RX time stamping

Previously the RCTRL_TS_ENABLE bit was set unconditionally. However, if
the RCTRL_TS_ENABLE is set without TMR_CTRL[TE], the driver does not work
properly on some boards (Anton had problems with the MPC8313ERDB and
MPC8568EMDS).

With this patch the bit will only be set if requested from user space
with the SIOCSHWTSTAMP ioctl command, meaning that time stamping is
disabled during normal operation. Users who are not interested in time
stamps will not experience problems with buggy CPU revisions or
performance drops any more.

The setting of TMR_CTRL[TE] is still up to the user. This is considered
safe because users wanting HW timestamps must initialize the eTSEC clock
first anyway, e.g. with the recently submitted PTP clock driver.

iwlagn: verify flow id in compressed BA packet

The flow id (scd_flow) in a compressed BA packet should match the txq_id
of the queue from which the aggregated packets were sent. However, in
some hardware like the 1000 series, sometimes the flow id is 0 for the
txq_id (10 to 19). This can cause the annoying message:

index 5, is out of range [0-256] 7 7.

And even worse, if agg->wait_for_ba is true when the bad BA is arriving,
this can cause system hang due to NULL pointer dereference because the

ixgbe: fix automatic LRO/RSC settings for low latency

This patch added to 2.6.34:

commit f8d1dcaf88bddc7f282722ec1fdddbcb06a72f18
Author: Jesse Brandeburg <jesse.brandeburg@intel.com>
Date:   Tue Apr 27 01:37:20 2010 +0000

    ixgbe: enable extremely low latency

introduced a feature where LRO (called RSC on the hardware) was disabled
automatically when setting rx-usecs to 0 via ethtool.  Some might not
like the fact that LRO was disabled automatically, but I'm fine with
that.  What I don't like is that LRO/RSC is automatically enabled when
rx-usecs is set >0 via ethtool.

This would certainly be a problem if the device was used for forwarding
and it was determined that the low latency wasn't needed after the
device was already forwarding.  I played around with saving the state of
LRO in the driver, but it just didn't seem worthwhile and would require
a small change to dev_disable_lro() that I did not like.

This patch simply leaves LRO disabled when setting rx-usecs >0 and
requires that the user enable it again.  An extra informational message
will also now appear in the log so users can understand why LRO isn't
being enabled as they expect.

Inconsistency of LRO setting first noticed by Stanislaw Gruszka.

net: deliver skbs on inactive slaves to exact matches

Currently, the accelerated receive path for VLAN's will
drop packets if the real device is an inactive slave and
is not one of the special pkts tested for in
skb_bond_should_drop().  This behavior is different then
the non-accelerated path and for pkts over a bonded vlan.

For example,

vlanx -> bond0 -> ethx

will be dropped in the vlan path and not delivered to any
packet handlers at all.  However,

bond0 -> vlanx -> ethx

and

bond0 -> ethx

will be delivered to handlers that match the exact dev,
because the VLAN path checks the real_dev which is not a
slave and netif_recv_skb() doesn't drop frames but only
delivers them to exact matches.

This patch adds a sk_buff flag which is used for tagging
skbs that would previously been dropped and allows the
skb to continue to skb_netif_recv().  Here we add
logic to check for the deliver_no_wcard flag and if it
is set only deliver to handlers that match exactly.  This
makes both paths above consistent and gives pkt handlers
a way to identify skbs that come from inactive slaves.
Without this patch in some configurations skbs will be
delivered to handlers with exact matches and in others
be dropped out right in the vlan path.

I have tested the following 4 configurations in failover modes
and load balancing modes.

# bond0 -> ethx

# vlanx -> bond0 -> ethx

# bond0 -> vlanx -> ethx

  to 8 if the PAL field is programmed to less than 8. Must be set
  to zero if TMR_CTRL[TE]=0.

I see that the commit above sets this bit, but it doesn't handle
TMR_CTRL. Manfred probably had this bit set by the firmware for
his boards. But obviously this isn't true for all boards in the
wild.

Also, I recall that Freescale BSPs were explicitly disabling the
timestamping because of a performance drop.

For now, the best way to deal with this is just disable the
timestamping, and later we can discuss proper device tree bindings
and implement enabling this feature via some property.

ipvs: Add missing locking during connection table hashing and unhashing

The code that hashes and unhashes connections from the connection table
is missing locking of the connection being modified, which opens up a
race condition and results in memory corruption when this race condition
is hit.

Here is what happens in pretty verbose form:

CPU 0 CPU 1
------------ ------------
An active connection is terminated and
we schedule ip_vs_conn_expire() on this
CPU to expire this connection.

IRQ assignment is changed to this CPU,
but the expire timer stays scheduled on
the other CPU.

New connection from same ip:port comes
in right before the timer expires, we
find the inactive connection in our
connection table and get a reference to
it. We proper lock the connection in
tcp_state_transition() and read the
connection flags in set_tcp_state().

ip_vs_conn_expire() gets called, we
unhash the connection from our
connection table and remove the hashed
flag in ip_vs_conn_unhash(), without
proper locking!

While still holding proper locks we
write the connection flags in
set_tcp_state() and this sets the hashed
flag again.

ip_vs_conn_expire() fails to expire the
connection, because the other CPU has
incremented the reference count. We try
to re-insert the connection into our
connection table, but this fails in
ip_vs_conn_hash(), because the hashed
flag has been set by the other CPU. We
re-schedule execution of
ip_vs_conn_expire(). Now this connection
has the hashed flag set, but isn't
actually hashed in our connection table
and has a dangling list_head.

We drop the reference we held on the
connection and schedule the expire timer
for timeouting the connection on this
CPU. Further packets won't be able to
find this connection in our connection
table.

ip_vs_conn_expire() gets called again,
we think it's already hashed, but the
list_head is dangling and while removing
the connection from our connection table
we write to the memory location where
this list_head points to.

The result will probably be a kernel oops at some other point in time.

This race condition is pretty subtle, but it can be triggered remotely.
It needs the IRQ assignment change or another circumstance where packets
coming from the same ip:port for the same service are being processed on
different CPUs. And it involves hitting the exact time at which
ip_vs_conn_expire() gets called. It can be avoided by making sure that
all packets from one connection are always processed on the same CPU and
can be made harder to exploit by changing the connection timeouts to
some custom values.
