If the root qdisc for a net device is mqprio, and the driver's ndo_setup_tc() operation dynamically adds and remvoes TX queues, netif_set_real_num_tx_queues() will be called during device unregistration to remove the extra TX queues when the qdisc is destroyed. Currently this causes the corresponding kobjects to be leaked, and the device's reference count never drops to 0. Signed-off-by: NBen Hutchings <bhutchings@solarflare.com>

The general idea is that if we learn new PMTU information, we bump the peer genid. This triggers the dst_ops->check() code to validate and if necessary propagate the new PMTU value into the metrics. Learned PMTU information self-expires. This means that it is not necessary to kill a cached route entry just because the PMTU information is too old. As a consequence: 1) When the path appears unreachable (dst_ops->link_failure or dst_ops->negative_advice) we unwind the PMTU state if it is out of date, instead of killing the cached route. A redirected route will still be invalidated in these situations. 2) rt_check_expire(), rt_worker_func(), et al. are no longer necessary at all. Signed-off-by: NDavid S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

With previous patch, rose_get_neigh() routine investigates the full list of neighbor nodes until it finds or not an already connected node whether it is called locally or through a level 3 transit frame. If no routes are opened through an adjacent connected node then a classical connect request is attempted. Then there is no more reason for an extra loop such as the one removed by this patch.

FPAC AX25 packet application is using Linux kernel ROSE routing skills in order to connect or send packets to remote stations knowing their ROSE address via a network of interconnected nodes. Each FPAC node has a ROSE routing table that Linux ROSE module is looking at each time a ROSE frame is relayed by the node or when a connect request to a neighbor node is received. A previous patch improved the system time response by looking at already established routes each time the system was looking for a route to relay a frame. If a neighbor node routing the destination address was already connected, then the frame would be sent through him. If not, a connection request would be issued. The present patch extends the same routing capability to a connect request asked by a user locally connected into an FPAC node. Without this patch, a connect request was not well handled unless it was directed to an immediate connected neighbor of the local node. Implemented at a number of ROSE FPAC node stations, the present patch improved dramatically FPAC ROSE routing time response and efficiency.

The two fragments of an unicast packet must have successive sequence numbers to allow the receiver side to detect matching fragments and merge them again. The current implementation doesn't provide that property because a sequence of two atomic_inc_return may be interleaved with another sequence which also changes the variable. The access to the fragment sequence number pool has either to be protected by correct locking or it has to reserve two sequence numbers in a single fetch. The latter one can easily be done by increasing the value of the last used sequence number by 2 in a single step. The generated window of two currently unused sequence numbers can now be scattered across the two fragments.

If we didn't have a routing cache, we would not be able to properly propagate certain kinds of dynamic path attributes, for example PMTU information and redirects. The reason is that if we didn't have a routing cache, then there would be no way to lookup all of the active cached routes hanging off of sockets, tunnels, IPSEC bundles, etc. Consider the case where we created a cached route, but no inetpeer entry existed and also we were not asked to pre-COW the route metrics and therefore did not force the creation a new inetpeer entry. If we later get a PMTU message, or a redirect, and store this information in a new inetpeer entry, there is no way to teach that cached route about the newly existing inetpeer entry. The facilities implemented here handle this problem. First we create a generation ID. When we create a cached route of any kind, we remember the generation ID at the time of attachment. Any time we force-create an inetpeer entry in response to new path information, we bump that generation ID. The dst_ops->check() callback is where the knowledge of this event is propagated. If the global generation ID does not equal the one stored in the cached route, and the cached route has not attached to an inetpeer yet, we look it up and attach if one is found. Now that we've updated the cached route's information, we update the route's generation ID too. This clears the way for implementing PMTU and redirects directly in the inetpeer cache. There is absolutely no need to consult cached route information in order to maintain this information. At this point nothing bumps the inetpeer genids, that comes in the later changes which handle PMTUs and redirects using inetpeers. Signed-off-by: NDavid S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Validity of the cached PMTU information is indicated by it's expiration value being non-zero, just as per dst->expires. The scheme we will use is that we will remember the pre-ICMP value held in the metrics or route entry, and then at expiration time we will restore that value. In this way PMTU expiration does not kill off the cached route as is done currently. Redirect information is permanent, or at least until another redirect is received. Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

In commit aa942104 ("net: init ingress queue") we moved the allocation and lock initialization of the queues into alloc_netdev_mq() since register_netdevice() is way too late. The problem is that dev->type is not setup until the setup() callback is invoked by alloc_netdev_mq(), and the dev->type is what determines the lockdep class to use for the locks in the queues. Fix this by doing the queue allocation after the setup() callback runs. This is safe because the setup() callback is not allowed to make any state changes that need to be undone on error (memory allocations, etc.). It may, however, make state changes that are undone by free_netdev() (such as netif_napi_add(), which is done by the ipoib driver's setup routine). The previous code also leaked a reference to the &init_net namespace object on RX/TX queue allocation failures. Signed-off-by: NDavid S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

rtnl_link_ops->setup(), and the "setup" callback passed to alloc_netdev*(), cannot make state changes which need to be undone on failure. There is no cleanup mechanism available at this point. So we have to add the caif private instance to the global list once we are sure that register_netdev() has succedded in ->newlink(). Otherwise, if register_netdev() fails, the caller will invoke free_netdev() and we will have a reference to freed up memory on the chnl_net_list. Signed-off-by: NDavid S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

The Linux IPv4 AH stack aligns the AH header on a 64 bit boundary (like in IPv6). This is not RFC compliant (see RFC4302, Section 3.3.3.2.1), it should be aligned on 32 bits. For most of the authentication algorithms, the ICV size is 96 bits. The AH header alignment on 32 or 64 bits gives the same results. However for SHA-256-128 for instance, the wrong 64 bit alignment results in adding useless padding in IPv4 AH, which is forbidden by the RFC. To avoid breaking backward compatibility, we use a new flag (XFRM_STATE_ALIGN4) do change original behavior.

The meaning of 0 got confused in the callers. If the facilities are messed up we can't determine where the data starts.

由 Christian Lamparter 提交于
On review of 'zd1211rw: implement beacon fetching and handling ieee80211_get_buffered_bc()', Christian Lamparter noted that [1]: Since zd_beacon_done also uploads the next beacon so long in advance, there could be an equally long race between the outdated state of the next beacon's DTIM broadcast traffic indicator (802.11-2007 7.3.2.6) which -in your case- was uploaded almost a beacon interval ago and the xmit of ieee80211_get_buffered_bc *now*. The dtim bc/mc bit might be not set, when a mc/bc arrived after the beacon was uploaded, but before the "beacon done event" from the hardware. So, dozing stations don't expect the broadcast traffic and of course, they might miss it completely. It's probably better to fix this in mac80211 (see the attached hack).
