      mm: move zone lock to a different cache line than order-0 free page lists · a368ab67

      rearrange zone fields into read-only, page alloc, statistics and page
      reclaim lines") from the Intel performance tests

      The problem is specific to very large machines under stress.  It was not
      reproducible with the machines I had used to justify the original patch
      because large numbers of CPUs are required.  When pressure is high enough,
      the cache line is bouncing between CPUs trying to acquire the lock and the
      holder of the lock adjusting free lists.  The intention was that the
      acquirer of the lock would automatically have the cache line holding the
      free lists but according to Huang, this is not a universal win.
      
      One possibility is to move the zone lock to its own cache line but it
      increases the size of the zone.  This patch moves the lock to the other
      end of the free lists where they do not contend under high pressure.  It
      does mean the page allocator paths now require more cache lines but Huang
      reports that it restores performance to previous levels on large machines

      Pull networking fixes from David Miller:
      
       1) In TCP, don't register an FRTO for cumulatively ACK'd data that was
          previously SACK'd, from Neal Cardwell.
      
       2) Need to hold RNL mutex in ipv4 multicast code namespace cleanup,
          from Cong WANG.
      
       3) Similarly we have to hold RNL mutex for fib_rules_unregister(), also
          from Cong WANG.
      
       4) Revert and rework netns nsid allocation fix, from Nicolas Dichtel.
      
       5) When we encapsulate for a tunnel device, skb->sk still points to the
          user socket.  So this leads to cases where we retraverse the
          ipv4/ipv6 output path with skb->sk being of some other address
          family (f.e. AF_PACKET).  This can cause things to crash since the
          ipv4 output path is dereferencing an AF_PACKET socket as if it were
          an ipv4 one.
      
          The short term fix for 'net' and -stable is to elide these socket
          checks once we've entered an encapsulation sequence by testing
          xmit_recursion.
      
          Longer term we have a better solution wherein we pass the tunnel's
          socket down through the output paths, but that is way too invasive
          for 'net' and -stable.
      
          From Hannes Frederic Sowa.
      
       6) l2tp_init() failure path forgets to unregister per-net ops, from
          Cong WANG.

      net: dsa: fix filling routing table from OF description · 30303813
      Pavel Nakonechny 提交于
      According to description in 'include/net/dsa.h', in cascade switches
      configurations where there are more than one interconnected devices,
      'rtable' array in 'dsa_chip_data' structure is used to indicate which
      port on this switch should be used to send packets to that are destined
      for corresponding switch.
      
      However, dsa_of_setup_routing_table() fills 'rtable' with port numbers
      of the _target_ switch, but not current one.
      
      This commit removes redundant devicetree parsing and adds needed port
      number as a function argument. So dsa_of_setup_routing_table() now just
      looks for target switch number by parsing parent of 'link' device node.
      
      To remove possible misunderstandings with the way of determining target
      switch number, a corresponding comment was added to the source code and
      to the DSA device tree bindings documentation file.
      
      This was tested on a custom board with two Marvell 88E6095 switches with
      following corresponding routing tables: { -1, 10 } and { 8, -1 }.

      ipv6: protect skb->sk accesses from recursive dereference inside the stack · f60e5990
      hannes@stressinduktion.org 提交于
      We should not consult skb->sk for output decisions in xmit recursion
      levels > 0 in the stack. Otherwise local socket settings could influence
      the result of e.g. tunnel encapsulation process.
      
      ipv6 does not conform with this in three places:
      
      1) ip6_fragment: we do consult ipv6_npinfo for frag_size
      
      2) sk_mc_loop in ipv6 uses skb->sk and checks if we should
         loop the packet back to the local socket
      
      3) ip6_skb_dst_mtu could query the settings from the user socket and
         force a wrong MTU
      
      Furthermore:
      In sk_mc_loop we could potentially land in WARN_ON(1) if we use a
      PF_PACKET socket ontop of an IPv6-backed vxlan device.
      
      Reuse xmit_recursion as we are currently only interested in protecting
      tunnel devices.
