2019-10-29Merge tag 'v5.4-rc4' into docs-nextJonathan Corbet
I need to pick up the independent changes made to Documentation/core-api/memory-allocation.rst to be able to merge further work without creating a total mess.
2019-10-28net: dsa: mv88e6xxx: Add devlink param for ATU hash algorithm.Andrew Lunn
Some of the marvell switches have bits controlling the hash algorithm the ATU uses for MAC addresses. In some industrial settings, where all the devices are from the same manufacture, and hence use the same OUI, the default hashing algorithm is not optimal. Allow the other algorithms to be selected via devlink. Signed-off-by: Andrew Lunn <andrew@lunn.ch> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Daniel Borkmann says: ==================== pull-request: bpf-next 2019-10-27 The following pull-request contains BPF updates for your *net-next* tree. We've added 52 non-merge commits during the last 11 day(s) which contain a total of 65 files changed, 2604 insertions(+), 1100 deletions(-). The main changes are: 1) Revolutionize BPF tracing by using in-kernel BTF to type check BPF assembly code. The work here teaches BPF verifier to recognize kfree_skb()'s first argument as 'struct sk_buff *' in tracepoints such that verifier allows direct use of bpf_skb_event_output() helper used in tc BPF et al (w/o probing memory access) that dumps skb data into perf ring buffer. Also add direct loads to probe memory in order to speed up/replace bpf_probe_read() calls, from Alexei Starovoitov. 2) Big batch of changes to improve libbpf and BPF kselftests. Besides others: generalization of libbpf's CO-RE relocation support to now also include field existence relocations, revamp the BPF kselftest Makefile to add test runner concept allowing to exercise various ways to build BPF programs, and teach bpf_object__open() and friends to automatically derive BPF program type/expected attach type from section names to ease their use, from Andrii Nakryiko. 3) Fix deadlock in stackmap's build-id lookup on rq_lock(), from Song Liu. 4) Allow to read BTF as raw data from bpftool. Most notable use case is to dump /sys/kernel/btf/vmlinux through this, from Jiri Olsa. 5) Use bpf_redirect_map() helper in libbpf's AF_XDP helper prog which manages to improve "rx_drop" performance by ~4%., from Björn Töpel. 6) Fix to restore the flow dissector after reattach BPF test and also fix error handling in bpf_helper_defs.h generation, from Jakub Sitnicki. 7) Improve verifier's BTF ctx access for use outside of raw_tp, from Martin KaFai Lau. 8) Improve documentation for AF_XDP with new sections and to reflect latest features, from Magnus Karlsson. 9) Add back 'version' section parsing to libbpf for old kernels, from John Fastabend. 10) Fix strncat bounds error in libbpf's libbpf_prog_type_by_name(), from KP Singh. 11) Turn on -mattr=+alu32 in LLVM by default for BPF kselftests in order to improve insn coverage for built BPF progs, from Yonghong Song. 12) Misc minor cleanups and fixes, from various others. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

2019-10-23compat_ioctl: handle PPPIOCGIDLE for 64-bit time_tArnd Bergmann
The ppp_idle structure is defined in terms of __kernel_time_t, which is defined as 'long' on all architectures, and this usage is not affected by the y2038 problem since it transports a time interval rather than an absolute time. However, the ppp user space defines the same structure as time_t, which may be 64-bit wide on new libc versions even on 32-bit architectures. It's easy enough to just handle both possible structure layouts on all architectures, to deal with the possibility that a user space ppp implementation comes with its own ppp_idle structure definition, as well as to document the fact that the driver is y2038-safe. Doing this also avoids the need for a special compat mode translation, since 32-bit and 64-bit kernels now support the same interfaces. The old 32-bit structure is also available on native 64-bit architectures now, but this is harmless.

Daniel Borkmann says: ==================== The following pull-request contains BPF updates for your *net-next* tree. The main changes are: 1) Add the ability to use unaligned chunks in the AF_XDP umem.

Support for i40e, ixgbe and mlx5e, from Kevin and Maxim. 2) Addition of a wakeup flag for AF_XDP tx and fill rings so the application can wake up the kernel for rx/tx processing which avoids busy-spinning of the latter, useful when app and driver is located on the same core. Support for i40e, ixgbe and mlx5e, from Magnus and Maxim. 3) bpftool fixes for printf()-like functions so compiler can actually enforce checks, bpftool build system improvements for custom output directories, and addition of 'bpftool map freeze' command, from Quentin. 4) Support attaching/detaching XDP programs from 'bpftool net' command, from Daniel. 5) Automatic xskmap cleanup when AF_XDP socket is released, and several barrier/{read,write}_once fixes in AF_XDP code, from Björn. 6) Relicense of bpf_helpers.h/bpf_endian.h for future libbpf inclusion as well as libbpf versioning improvements, from Andrii. 7) Several new BPF kselftests for verifier precision tracking, from Alexei. 8) Several BPF kselftest fixes wrt endianess to run on s390x, from Ilya. 9) And more BPF kselftest improvements all over the place, from Stanislav. 10) Add simple BPF map op cache for nfp driver to batch dumps, from Jakub. 11) AF_XDP socket umem mapping improvements for 32bit archs, from Ivan. 12) Add BPF-to-BPF call and BTF line info support for s390x JIT, from Yauheni. 13) Small optimization in arm64 JIT to spare 1 insns for BPF_MOD, from Jerin. 14) Fix an error check in bpf_tcp_gen_syncookie() helper, from Petar. 15) Various minor fixes and cleanups, from Nathan, Masahiro, Masanari, Peter, Wei, Yue. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

Add new parameter (flow_steering_mode) to control the flow steering mode of the driver. Two modes are supported: 1. DMFS - Device managed flow steering 2. SMFS - Software/Driver managed flow steering. In the DMFS mode, the HW steering entities are created through the FW. In the SMFS mode this entities are created though the driver directly. The driver will use the devlink steering mode only if the steering domain supports it, for now SMFS will manages only the switchdev eswitch steering domain. User command examples: - Set SMFS flow steering mode:: $ devlink dev param set pci/0000:06:00.0 name flow_steering_mode value "smfs" cmode runtime - Read device flow steering mode:: $ devlink dev param show pci/0000:06:00.0 name flow_steering_mode pci/0000:06:00.0: name flow_steering_mode type driver-specific values: cmode runtime value smfs Signed-off-by: Maor Gottlieb <maorg@mellanox.com> Signed-off-by: Saeed Mahameed <saeedm@mellanox.com>

2019-08-09tcp: add new tcp_mtu_probe_floor sysctlJosh Hunt
The current implementation of TCP MTU probing can considerably underestimate the MTU on lossy connections allowing the MSS to get down to 48. We have found that in almost all of these cases on our networks these paths can handle much larger MTUs meaning the connections are being artificially limited. Even though TCP MTU probing can raise the MSS back up we have seen this not to be the case causing connections to be "stuck" with an MSS of 48 when heavy loss is present. Prior to pushing out this change we could not keep TCP MTU probing enabled b/c of the above reasons. Now with a reasonble floor set we've had it enabled for the past 6 months. The new sysctl will still default to TCP_MIN_SND_MSS (48), but gives administrators the ability to control the floor of MSS probing.

2019-08-08net/tls: prevent skb_orphan() from leaking TLS plain text with offloadJakub Kicinski
sk_validate_xmit_skb() and drivers depend on the sk member of struct sk_buff to identify segments requiring encryption. Any operation which removes or does not preserve the original TLS socket such as skb_orphan() or skb_clone() will cause clear text leaks. Make the TCP socket underlying an offloaded TLS connection mark all skbs as decrypted, if TLS TX is in offload mode. Then in sk_validate_xmit_skb() catch skbs which have no socket (or a socket with no validation) and decrypted flag set. Note that CONFIG_SOCK_VALIDATE_XMIT, CONFIG_TLS_DEVICE and sk->sk_validate_xmit_skb are slightly interchangeable right now, they all imply TLS offload. The new checks are guarded by CONFIG_TLS_DEVICE because that's the option guarding the sk_buff->decrypted member. Second, smaller issue with orphaning is that it breaks the guarantee that packets will be delivered to device queues in-order. All TLS offload drivers depend on that scheduling property. This means skb_orphan_partial()'s trick of preserving partial socket references will cause issues in the drivers. We need a full orphan, and as a result netem delay/throttling will cause all TLS offload skbs to be dropped. Reusing the sk_buff->decrypted flag also protects from leaking clear text when incoming, decrypted skb is redirected (e.g. by TC). See commit 0608c69c9a80 ("bpf: sk_msg, sock{map|hash} redirect through ULP") for justification why the internal flag is safe. The only location which could leak the flag in is tcp_bpf_sendmsg(), which is taken care of by clearing the previously unused bit. v2: - remove superfluous decrypted mark copy (Willem); - remove the stale doc entry (Boris); - rely entirely on EOR marking to prevent coalescing (Boris); - use an internal sendpages flag instead of marking the socket (Boris). v3 (Willem): - reorganize the can_skb_orphan_partial() condition; - fix the flag leak-in through tcp_bpf_sendmsg.

2019-08-05net/tls: partially revert fix transition through disconnect with closeJakub Kicinski
Looks like we were slightly overzealous with the shutdown() cleanup. Even though the sock->sk_state can reach CLOSED again, socket->state will not got back to SS_UNCONNECTED once connections is ESTABLISHED. Meaning we will see EISCONN if we try to reconnect, and EINVAL if we try to listen. Only listen sockets can be shutdown() and reused, but since ESTABLISHED sockets can never be re-connected() or used for listen() we don't need to try to clean up the ULP state early.
