send data in the opening SYN packet.

For blocking socket, sendmsg() blocks until all the data are buffered
locally and the handshake is completed like connect() call. It
returns similar errno like connect() if the TCP handshake fails.

For non-blocking socket, it returns the number of bytes queued (and

is not available, it transmits a data-less SYN packet with Fast Open
cookie request option and returns -EINPROGRESS like connect().

Using MSG_FASTOPEN on connecting or connected socket will result in

mlx4_en: map entire pages to increase throughput

In its receive path, mlx4_en driver maps each page chunk that it pushes
to the hardware and unmaps it when pushing it up the stack. This limits
throughput to about 3Gbps on a Power7 8-core machine.

One solution is to map the entire allocated page at once. However, this
requires that we keep track of every page fragment we give to a
descriptor. We also need to work with the discipline that all fragments will
be released (in the sense that it will not be reused by the driver
anymore) in the order they are allocated to the driver.

This requires that we don't reuse any fragments, every single one of
them must be reallocated. We do that by releasing all the fragments that
are processed and only after finished processing the descriptors, we
start the refill.

We also must somehow guarantee that we either refill all fragments in a
descriptor or none at all, without resorting to giving up a page
fragment that we would have already given. Otherwise, we would break the
discipline of only releasing the fragments in the order they were
allocated.

This has passed page allocation fault injections (restricted to the
driver by using required-start and required-end) and device hotplug
while 16 TCP streams were able to deliver more than 9Gbps.

commit 9ac32e1b firmware: convert e100 driver to request_firmware()

did a straight conversion of the in-driver ucode to external

to enable an interface due to missing ucode. There was no
evaluation of the importance of the ucode at the time.

Based on comments in earlier versions of this driver, and in
the source code for the FreeBSD fxp driver, we can assume that
the ucode implements the "CPU Cycle Saver" feature on supported
adapters.  Although generally wanted, this is an optional
feature. The ucode source is not available, preventing it from
being included in free distributions. This creates unnecessary
problems for the end users. Doing a network install based on a
free distribution installer requires the user to download and
insert the ucode into the installer.

Making the ucode optional when possible improves the user
experience and driver usability.

The ucode for some adapters include a bugfix, making it
essential.  We continue to fail for these adapters unless the
ucode is available.

md: avoid crash when stopping md array races with closing other open fds.

md will refuse to stop an array if any other fd (or mounted fs) is
using it.
When any fs is unmounted of when the last open fd is closed all
pending IO will be flushed (e.g. sync_blockdev call in __blkdev_put)
so there will be no pending IO to worry about when the array is
stopped.

However in order to send the STOP_ARRAY ioctl to stop the array one
must first get and open fd on the block device.
If some fd is being used to write to the block device and it is closed
after mdadm open the block device, but before mdadm issues the
STOP_ARRAY ioctl, then there will be no last-close on the md device so
__blkdev_put will not call sync_blockdev.

If this happens, then IO can still be in-flight while md tears down
the array and bad things can happen (use-after-free and subsequent
havoc).

So in the case where do_md_stop is being called from an open file
descriptor, call sync_block after taking the mutex to ensure there
will be no new openers.

This is needed when setting a read-write device to read-only too.

md: fix bug in handling of new_data_offset

commit c6563a8c38fde3c1c7fc925a10bde3ca20799301
    md: add possibility to change data-offset for devices.

introduced a 'new_data_offset' attribute which should normally
be the same as 'data_offset', but can be explicitly set to a different
value to allow a reshape operation to move the data.

Unfortunately when the 'data_offset' is explicitly set through
sysfs, the new_data_offset is not also set, so the two would become
out-of-sync incorrectly.

One result of this is that trying to set the 'size' after the
'data_offset' would fail because it is not permitted to set the size
when the 'data_offset' and 'new_data_offset' are different - as that
can be confusing.
Consequently when mdadm tried to do this while assembling an IMSM
array it would fail.

Make wait_for_device_probe() also do scsi_complete_async_scans()

Commit a7a20d103994 ("sd: limit the scope of the async probe domain")
make the SCSI device probing run device discovery in it's own async
domain.

However, as a result, the partition detection was no longer synchronized
by async_synchronize_full() (which, despite the name, only synchronizes
the global async space, not all of them).  Which in turn meant that
"wait_for_device_probe()" would not wait for the SCSI partitions to be
parsed.

And "wait_for_device_probe()" was what the boot time init code relied on
for mounting the root filesystem.

Now, most people never noticed this, because not only is it
timing-dependent, but modern distributions all use initrd.  So the root
filesystem isn't actually on a disk at all.  And then before they
actually mount the final disk filesystem, they will have loaded the
scsi-wait-scan module, which not only does the expected
wait_for_device_probe(), but also does scsi_complete_async_scans().

[ Side note: scsi_complete_async_scans() had also been partially broken,
  but that was fixed in commit 43a8d39d0137 ("fix async probe
  regression"), so that same commit a7a20d103994 had actually broken
  setups even if you used scsi-wait-scan explicitly ]

Solve this problem by just moving the scsi_complete_async_scans() call
into wait_for_device_probe().  Everybody who wants to wait for device
probing to finish really wants the SCSI probing to complete, so there's
no reason not to do this.

So now "wait_for_device_probe()" really does what the name implies, and
properly waits for device probing to finish.  This also removes the now
unnecessary extra calls to scsi_complete_async_scans().

ixgbevf: fix VF untagging when 802.1 prio is set

We have had an issue when using ixgbe+ixgbevf and 802.1 VLAN tagging.

When attaching a VLAN to a VF, frames with a 802.1q priority appeared
untagged on the VF hence not reaching the VLAN, where frames with
priority 0 where tagged as expected and seen by the VLAN device.

This seems due to the way ixgbevf is looking up the full tag
(prio+cfi+vlan) against the adapter active_vlans, as a condition to mark
the skb tagged.

12 years agocipso: don't follow a NULL pointer when setsockopt() is called
Paul Moore [Tue, 17 Jul 2012 11:07:47 +0000 (11:07 +0000)]
cipso: don't follow a NULL pointer when setsockopt() is called

As reported by Alan Cox, and verified by Lin Ming, when a user
attempts to add a CIPSO option to a socket using the CIPSO_V4_TAG_LOCAL
tag the kernel dies a terrible death when it attempts to follow a NULL
pointer (the skb argument to cipso_v4_validate() is NULL when called via
the setsockopt() syscall).

This patch fixes this by first checking to ensure that the skb is
non-NULL before using it to find the incoming network interface.  In
the unlikely case where the skb is NULL and the user attempts to add
a CIPSO option with the _TAG_LOCAL tag we return an error as this is
not something we want to allow.

A simple reproducer, kindly supplied by Lin Ming, although you must
have the CIPSO DOI #3 configure on the system first or you will be
caught early in cipso_v4_validate():

#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/socket.h>
#include <linux/ip.h>
#include <linux/in.h>
#include <string.h>

struct local_tag {
char type;
char length;
char info[4];
};

struct cipso {
char type;
char length;
char doi[4];
struct local_tag local;
};

int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
int sockfd;
struct cipso cipso = {
.type = IPOPT_CIPSO,
.length = sizeof(struct cipso),
.local = {
.type = 128,
.length = sizeof(struct local_tag),
},
};

memset(cipso.doi, 0, 4);
cipso.doi[3] = 3;

sockfd = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_DGRAM, 0);
#define SOL_IP 0
setsockopt(sockfd, SOL_IP, IP_OPTIONS,
&cipso, sizeof(struct cipso));

return 0;

When AP interface is going down, the stations
are flushed (in ieee80211_do_stop()) only after
the beaconing was stopped.

However, drivers might rely on stations being
removed before the beaconing was stopped, in

Fix it by flushing the stations on ap stop.
