An IPsec node speaking IKEv2 MUST accept incoming UDP encapsulated
ESP packets, even if no NAT situation is detected. This is important
if MOBIKE is in use. Some implementation keep the encapsulation

net: /proc/net/ip_mr_cache, display Iif as a signed short

Today, iproute2 fails to show multicast forwarding unresolved cache
entries while scanning /proc/net/ip_mr_cache.

Indeed, it expects to see -1 in 'Iif' column to identify unresolved
entries but the kernel outputs 65535. It's a signed/unsigned issue:

'Iif', the source interface, is retrieved from member mfc_parent in
struct mfc_cache. mfc_parent is a vifi_t: unsigned short, but is
displayed in ipmr_mfc_seq_show() as "%-3d", signed integer.

In unresolevd entries, the 65535 value (0xFFFF) comes from this define:
#define ALL_VIFS    ((vifi_t)(-1))

That may explains why the guy who added support for this in iproute2
thought a -1 should be expected.

I don't know if this must be fixed in kernel or in iproute2. Who is
right? What is the correct API? How was it designed originally?

I let you decide if it should goes in the kernel or be fixed in iproute2.

024C00EF 010014AC 65535      514        2 -559067475

The first line is correct. It is a resolved cache entry, 10 packets used it...
The second line represents an unresolved entry, and the columns Pkts(4th),
Bytes(5th) and Wrong(6th) just show garbage.

In struct mfc_cache, there's an union to store data for resolved and
unresolved cases. And what ipmr_mfc_seq_show() is printing in these
columns for the unresolved entries is some bytes from mfc_cache.mfc_un.res.
Bad.
(eg. In our case -559067475 is in fact 0xdead4ead which is the spinlock
magic from mfc_cache.mfc_un.unres.unresolved.lock.magic).

This patch replaces the garbage data written in these columns for the
unresolved entries by '0' (zeros) which is more correct.
This change doesn't break the ABI.

Also, mfc->mfc_un.res.pkt, mfc->mfc_un.res.bytes, mfc->mfc_un.res.wrong_if
are unsigned long.

It applies on top of net-next-2.6.

The patch for net-2.6 is slightly different because of the NIP6_FMT to
%pI6 conversion that was made in the seq_printf.

Changelog:
==========
V2:
* Instead of breaking the ABI by suppressing the columns that have no

atm: 32-bit ioctl compatibility

We lack compat ioctl support through most of the ATM code. This patch
deals with most of it, and I can now at least use BR2684 and PPPoATM
with 32-bit userspace.

I haven't added a .compat_ioctl method to struct atm_ioctl, because
AFAICT none of the current users need any conversion -- so we can just
call the ->ioctl() method in every case. I looked at br2684, clip, lec,
mpc, pppoatm and atmtcp.

In svc_compat_ioctl() the only mangling which is needed is to change
COMPAT_ATM_ADDPARTY to ATM_ADDPARTY. Although it's defined as
_IOW('a', ATMIOC_SPECIAL+4,struct atm_iobuf)
it doesn't actually _take_ a struct atm_iobuf as an argument -- it takes
a struct sockaddr_atmsvc, which _is_ the same between 32-bit and 64-bit
code, so doesn't need conversion.

Almost all of vcc_ioctl() would have been identical, so I converted that
into a core do_vcc_ioctl() function with an 'int compat' argument.

I've done the same with atm_dev_ioctl(), where there _are_ a few
differences, but still it's relatively contained and there would
otherwise have been a lot of duplication.

I haven't done any of the actual device-specific ioctls, although I've
added a compat_ioctl method to struct atmdev_ops.

forcedeth: power down phy when interface is down

Bring the physical link down when the interface is down by placing the PHY
in power-down state, unless WOL is enabled.  This mirrors the behavior of
other drivers including e1000 and tg3.

Without the patch, ifconfig down leaves the physical link up, which confuses
datacenter users who expect the link lights both on the NIC and the switch to
go out when they bring an interface down.

Furthermore, even though the phy is powered on, autonegotiation stops working,
so a normally gigabit link might suddenly become 100 Mbit half-duplex when the
interface goes down, and become gigabit when it comes up again.

Ayaz said:

  I would not include this patch until further testing is performed.  NVIDIA
  MCP chips use 3rd party PHY vendors.  By powering down the phy, it could

xfrm: Fix kernel panic when flush and dump SPD entries

After flush the SPD entries, dump the SPD entries will cause kernel painc.

Used the following commands to reproduct:

- echo 'spdflush;' | setkey -c
- echo 'spdadd 3ffe:501:ffff:ff01::/64 3ffe:501:ffff:ff04::/64  any -P out ipsec \

amd74xx: workaround unreliable AltStatus register for nVidia controllers

It seems that on some nVidia controllers using AltStatus register
can be unreliable so default to Status register if the PCI device
is in Compatibility Mode.  In order to achieve this:

* Add ide_pci_is_in_compatibility_mode() inline helper to <linux/ide.h>.

* Add IDE_HFLAG_BROKEN_ALTSTATUS host flag and set it in amd74xx host
  driver for nVidia controllers in Compatibility Mode.

* Teach actual_try_to_identify() and drive_is_ready() about the new flag.

This fixes the regression caused by removal of CONFIG_IDEPCI_SHARE_IRQ
config option in 2.6.25 and using AltStatus register unconditionally when
available (kernel.org bugs #11659 and #10216).

[ Moreover for CONFIG_IDEPCI_SHARE_IRQ=y (which is what most people
  and distributions use) it never worked correctly. ]

net: percpu_counter_inc() should not be called in BH-disabled section

Based upon a lockdep report by Alexey Dobriyan.

I checked all per_cpu_counter_xxx() usages in network tree, and I
think all call sites are BH enabled except one in
inet_csk_listen_stop().

commit dd24c00191d5e4a1ae896aafe33c6b8095ab4bd1
(net: Use a percpu_counter for orphan_count)
replaced atomic_t orphan_count to a percpu_counter.

atomic_inc()/atomic_dec() can be called from any context, while
percpu_counter_xxx() should be called from a consistent state.

For orphan_count, this context can be the BH-enabled one.

dccp: Feature activation handlers

This patch provides the post-processing of feature negotiation state, after
the negotiation has completed.

To this purpose, handlers are used and added to the dccp_feat_table. Each
handler is passed a boolean flag whether the RX or TX side of the feature
is meant.

Several handlers are provided already, new handlers can easily be added.

The initialisation is now fully dynamic, i.e. CCIDs are activated only
after the feature negotiation. The integration of this dynamic activation
is done in the subsequent patches.

Thanks to Wei Yongjun for pointing out the necessity of skipping over empty

i82875p_edac: fix module remove

Fix module removal bugs of i82875p_edac.  Also i82975x_edac code seems to
have the same module removal bugs as in i82875p_edac.

The problems were:

1. In module removal i82875p_remove_one() is never called.

   Variable i82875p_registered is newer changed from 1, which
   guarantees i82875p_remove_one() is not called (and even if it were
   called, it would be called in wrong order).

   As a result, the edac_mc workque is not stopped and keeps probing.
   If kernel debugging options are not enabled, user may not notice
   anything going wrong.

   if debugging options are enabled and I do "rmmod i82875p_edac", I
   get:

      edac debug: edac_pci_workq_function() checking

       [<c0204587>] ? kernel_thread_helper+0x7/0x10

   Fix for this is to get rid of needles variable i82875p_registered
   altogether and run i82875p_remove_one() *before*
   pci_unregister_driver().

2. edac_mc_del_mc() uses mci after freeing mci

   edac_mc_del_mc() calls calls edac_remove_sysfs_mci_device().  The
   kobject refcount of mci drops to 0 and mci is freed.  After this
   mci is accessed via debug print and i82875p_remove_one() still
   uses mci->pvt and tries to free mci again with edac_mc_free().

   The fix for this is add kobject_get(&mci->edac_mci_kobj) after
   edac_mc_alloc(). Then the mci is still available after returning
   from edac_mc_del_mc() with refcount 1, and mci->pvt is still
   available. When i82875p_remove_one() finally calls edac_mc_free(),
   this will cause kobject_put() and mci is released properly.

fbdev: fix FB console blanking

recursive locking in fb blanking code if blank is caused by user setting
the /sys/class/graphics/fb*/blank.  However this broke the fbcon timeout
blanking.

If you use a driver that defines ->fb_blank operation and at the same time
that driver relies on other driver (e.g.  backlight or lcd class) to blank
the screen, when the fbcon times out and tries to blank the fb, it will
call only fb driver blanker and won't notify the other driver.  Thus FB
output is disabled, but the screen isn't blanked.

Restore fbcon blanking and at the same time apply the proper fix for the
above problem: if fbcon_blank is called with FBINFO_FLAG_USEREVENT, we are
already called through notification from fb_blank, thus we don't have to
blank the fb again.

15 years agoepoll: introduce resource usage limits
Davide Libenzi [Mon, 1 Dec 2008 21:13:55 +0000 (13:13 -0800)]
epoll: introduce resource usage limits

It has been thought that the per-user file descriptors limit would also
limit the resources that a normal user can request via the epoll
interface.  Vegard Nossum reported a very simple program (a modified
version attached) that can make a normal user to request a pretty large
amount of kernel memory, well within the its maximum number of fds.  To
solve such problem, default limits are now imposed, and /proc based
configuration has been introduced.  A new directory has been created,
named /proc/sys/fs/epoll/ and inside there, there are two configuration
points:

  max_user_instances = Maximum number of devices - per user

  max_user_watches   = Maximum number of "watched" fds - per user

The current default for "max_user_watches" limits the memory used by epoll
to store "watches", to 1/32 of the amount of the low RAM.  As example, a
256MB 32bit machine, will have "max_user_watches" set to roughly 90000.
That should be enough to not break existing heavy epoll users.  The
default value for "max_user_instances" is set to 128, that should be
enough too.

This also changes the userspace, because a new error code can now come out
from EPOLL_CTL_ADD (-ENOSPC).  The EMFILE from epoll_create() was already
listed, so that should be ok.

15 years agomemcg: memory hotplug fix for notifier callback
KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki [Mon, 1 Dec 2008 21:13:48 +0000 (13:13 -0800)]
memcg: memory hotplug fix for notifier callback

Fixes for memcg/memory hotplug.

While memory hotplug allocate/free memmap, page_cgroup doesn't free
page_cgroup at OFFLINE when page_cgroup is allocated via bootomem.
(Because freeing bootmem requires special care.)

Then, if page_cgroup is allocated by bootmem and memmap is freed/allocated
by memory hotplug, page_cgroup->page == page is no longer true.

But current MEM_ONLINE handler doesn't check it and update
page_cgroup->page if it's not necessary to allocate page_cgroup.  (This
was not found because memmap is not freed if SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP is y.)

And I noticed that MEM_ONLINE can be called against "part of section".
So, freeing page_cgroup at CANCEL_ONLINE will cause trouble.  (freeing
used page_cgroup) Don't rollback at CANCEL.

One more, current memory hotplug notifier is stopped by slub because it
sets NOTIFY_STOP_MASK to return vaule.  So, page_cgroup's callback never
be called.  (low priority than slub now.)

I think this slub's behavior is not intentional(BUG). and fixes it.

Another way to be considered about page_cgroup allocation:
  - free page_cgroup at OFFLINE even if it's from bootmem
    and remove specieal handler. But it requires more changes.

15 years agomm: vmalloc fix lazy unmapping cache aliasing
Nick Piggin [Mon, 1 Dec 2008 21:13:47 +0000 (13:13 -0800)]
mm: vmalloc fix lazy unmapping cache aliasing

Jim Radford has reported that the vmap subsystem rewrite was sometimes
causing his VIVT ARM system to behave strangely (seemed like going into
infinite loops trying to fault in pages to userspace).

We determined that the problem was most likely due to a cache aliasing
issue.  flush_cache_vunmap was only being called at the moment the page
tables were to be taken down, however with lazy unmapping, this can happen
after the page has subsequently been freed and allocated for something
else.  The dangling alias may still have dirty data attached to it.

The fix for this problem is to do the cache flushing when the caller has
called vunmap -- it would be a bug for them to write anything else to the
mapping at that point.

That appeared to solve Jim's problems.
