The kernel may sleep under a rcu read lock in tipc_msg_reverse, and the function call path is: tipc_l2_rcv_msg (acquire the lock by rcu_read_lock) tipc_rcv tipc_sk_rcv tipc_msg_reverse pskb_expand_head(GFP_KERNEL) --> may sleep tipc_node_broadcast tipc_node_xmit_skb tipc_node_xmit tipc_sk_rcv tipc_msg_reverse pskb_expand_head(GFP_KERNEL) --> may sleep To fix it, "GFP_KERNEL" is replaced with "GFP_ATOMIC".

The kernel may sleep under a rcu read lock in cfpkt_create_pfx, and the function call path is: cfcnfg_linkup_rsp (acquire the lock by rcu_read_lock) cfctrl_linkdown_req cfpkt_create cfpkt_create_pfx alloc_skb(GFP_KERNEL) --> may sleep cfserl_receive (acquire the lock by rcu_read_lock) cfpkt_split cfpkt_create_pfx alloc_skb(GFP_KERNEL) --> may sleep There is "in_interrupt" in cfpkt_create_pfx to decide use "GFP_KERNEL" or "GFP_ATOMIC". In this situation, "GFP_KERNEL" is used because the function is called under a rcu read lock, instead in interrupt. To fix it, only "GFP_ATOMIC" is used in cfpkt_create_pfx.

Now sctp holds read_lock when foreach sctp_ep_hashtable without disabling BH. If CPU schedules to another thread A at this moment, the thread A may be trying to hold the write_lock with disabling BH. As BH is disabled and CPU cannot schedule back to the thread holding the read_lock, while the thread A keeps waiting for the read_lock. A dead lock would be triggered by this. This patch is to fix this dead lock by calling read_lock_bh instead to disable BH when holding the read_lock in sctp_for_each_endpoint.

This fixes a counter problem on 32bit systems: When the rx_bytes counter reached 2 GiB, it jumpd to (2^64 Bytes - 2GiB) Bytes. rtnl_link_stats64 has __u64 type and atomic_long_read returns atomic_long_t which is signed. Due to the conversation we get an incorrect value on 32bit systems if the MSB of the atomic_long_t value is set.

Yuval Mintz says: ==================== bnx2x: Fix malicious VFs indication It was discovered that for a VF there's a simple [yet uncommon] scenario which would cause device firmware to declare that VF as malicious - Add a vlan interface on top of a VF and disable txvlan offloading for that VF [causing VF to transmit packets where vlan is on payload].

Once firmware indicates that a given VF is malicious and until that VF passes an FLR all bets are off - PF can't know anything is happening to the VF [since VF can't communicate anything to its PF]. But PF is currently still periodically asking device to collect statistics for the VF which might in turn fill logs by IOMMU blocking memory access done by the VF's PCI function [in the case VF has unmapped its buffers].

VF clients are configured as enforced, meaning firmware is validating the correctness of their ethertype/vid during transmission. Once txvlan is disabled, VF would start getting SKBs for transmission here vlan is on the payload - but it'll pass the packet's ethertype instead of the vid, leading to firmware declaring it as malicious.

It looks like this: Message from syslogd@flamingo at Apr 26 00:45:00 ... kernel:unregister_netdevice: waiting for lo to become free. Usage count = 4 They seem to coincide with net namespace teardown. The message is emitted by netdev_wait_allrefs(). Forced a kdump in netdev_run_todo, but found that the refcount on the lo device was already 0 at the time we got to the panic. Used bcc to check the blocking in netdev_run_todo. The only places where we're off cpu there are in the rcu_barrier() and msleep() calls. That behavior is expected. The msleep time coincides with the amount of time we spend waiting for the refcount to reach zero; the rcu_barrier() wait times are not excessive. After looking through the list of callbacks that the netdevice notifiers invoke in this path, it appears that the dst_dev_event is the most interesting. The dst_ifdown path places a hold on the loopback_dev as part of releasing the dev associated with the original dst cache entry. Most of our notifier callbacks are straight-forward, but this one a) looks complex, and b) places a hold on the network interface in question. I constructed a new bcc script that watches various events in the liftime of a dst cache entry. Note that dst_ifdown will take a hold on the loopback device until the invalidated dst entry gets freed.

I noticed that test_l4lb was failing in selftests: # ./test_progs test_pkt_access:PASS:ipv4 77 nsec test_pkt_access:PASS:ipv6 44 nsec test_xdp:PASS:ipv4 2933 nsec test_xdp:PASS:ipv6 1500 nsec test_l4lb:PASS:ipv4 377 nsec test_l4lb:PASS:ipv6 544 nsec test_l4lb:FAIL:stats 6297600000 200000 test_tcp_estats:PASS: 0 nsec Summary: 7 PASSED, 1 FAILED Tracking down the issue actually revealed that endianness selection in bpf_endian.h is broken when compiled with clang with bpf target. test_pkt_access.c, test_l4lb.c is compiled with __BYTE_ORDER as __BIG_ENDIAN, test_xdp.c as __LITTLE_ENDIAN! test_l4lb noticeably fails, because the test accounts bytes via bpf_ntohs(ip6h->payload_len) and bpf_ntohs(iph->tot_len), and compares them against a defined value and given a wrong endianness, the test outcome is different, of course. Turns out that there are actually two bugs: i) when we do __BYTE_ORDER comparison with __LITTLE_ENDIAN/__BIG_ENDIAN, then depending on the include order we see different outcomes. Reason is that __BYTE_ORDER is undefined due to missing endian.h include. Before we include the asm/byteorder.h (e.g. through linux/in.h), then __BYTE_ORDER equals __LITTLE_ENDIAN since both are undefined, after the include which correctly pulls in linux/byteorder/little_endian.h, __LITTLE_ENDIAN is defined, but given __BYTE_ORDER is still undefined, we match on __BYTE_ORDER equals to __BIG_ENDIAN since __BIG_ENDIAN is also undefined at that point, sigh. ii) But even that would be wrong, since when compiling the test cases with clang, one can select between bpfeb and bpfel targets for cross compilation. Hence, we can also not rely on what the system's endian.h provides, but we need to look at the compiler's defined endianness. The compiler defines __BYTE_ORDER__, and we can match __ORDER_LITTLE_ENDIAN__ and __ORDER_BIG_ENDIAN__, which also reflects targets bpf (native), bpfel, bpfeb correctly, thus really only rely on that.

While discussing the possible merits of clang warning about unused initialized functions, I found one function that was clearly meant to be called but never actually is. __ila_hash_secret_init() initializes the hash value for the ila locator, apparently this is intended to prevent hash collision attacks, but this ends up being a read-only zero constant since there is no caller. I could find no indication of why it was never called, the earliest patch submission for the module already was like this. If my interpretation is right, we certainly want to backport the patch to stable kernels as well. I considered adding it to the ila_xlat_init callback, but for best effect the random data is read as late as possible, just before it is first used. The underlying net_get_random_once() is already highly optimized to avoid overhead when called frequently.

Verify that the length of the socket buffer is sufficient to cover the nlmsghdr structure before accessing the nlh->nlmsg_len field for further input sanitization. If the client only supplies 1-3 bytes of data in sk_buff, then nlh->nlmsg_len remains partially uninitialized and contains leftover memory from the corresponding kernel allocation. Operating on such data may result in indeterminate evaluation of the nlmsg_len < sizeof(*nlh) expression. The bug was discovered by a runtime instrumentation designed to detect use of uninitialized memory in the kernel.
