      net: Fix inconsistent teardown and release of private netdev state. · cf124db5
      David S. Miller 提交于
      Network devices can allocate reasources and private memory using
      netdev_ops->ndo_init().  However, the release of these resources
      can occur in one of two different places.
      
      Either netdev_ops->ndo_uninit() or netdev->destructor().
      
      The decision of which operation frees the resources depends upon
      whether it is necessary for all netdev refs to be released before it
      is safe to perform the freeing.
      
      netdev_ops->ndo_uninit() presumably can occur right after the
      NETDEV_UNREGISTER notifier completes and the unicast and multicast
      address lists are flushed.
      
      netdev->destructor(), on the other hand, does not run until the
      netdev references all go away.
      
      Further complicating the situation is that netdev->destructor()
      almost universally does also a free_netdev().
      
      This creates a problem for the logic in register_netdevice().
      Because all callers of register_netdevice() manage the freeing
      of the netdev, and invoke free_netdev(dev) if register_netdevice()
      fails.
      
      If netdev_ops->ndo_init() succeeds, but something else fails inside
      of register_netdevice(), it does call ndo_ops->ndo_uninit().  But
      it is not able to invoke netdev->destructor().
      
      This is because netdev->destructor() will do a free_netdev() and
      then the caller of register_netdevice() will do the same.
      
      However, this means that the resources that would normally be released
      by netdev->destructor() will not be.
      
      Over the years drivers have added local hacks to deal with this, by
      invoking their destructor parts by hand when register_netdevice()
      fails.
      
      Many drivers do not try to deal with this, and instead we have leaks.
      
      Let's close this hole by formalizing the distinction between what
      private things need to be freed up by netdev->destructor() and whether
      the driver needs unregister_netdevice() to perform the free_netdev().
      
      netdev->priv_destructor() performs all actions to free up the private
      resources that used to be freed by netdev->destructor(), except for
      free_netdev().
      
      netdev->needs_free_netdev is a boolean that indicates whether
      free_netdev() should be done at the end of unregister_netdevice().
      
      Now, register_netdevice() can sanely release all resources after
      ndo_ops->ndo_init() succeeds, by invoking both ndo_ops->ndo_uninit()
      and netdev->priv_destructor().
      
      And at the end of unregister_netdevice(), we invoke
      netdev->priv_destructor() and optionally call free_netdev().

      batman-adv: Initialize gw sel_class via batadv_algo · 1a9070ec
      Sven Eckelmann 提交于
      The gateway selection class variable is shared between different algorithm
      versions. But the interpretation of the content is algorithm specific. The
      initialization is therefore also algorithm specific.
      
      But this was implemented incorrectly and the initialization for BATMAN_V
      always overwrote the value previously written for BATMAN_IV. This could
      only be avoided when BATMAN_V was disabled during compile time.
      
      Using a special batadv_algo hook for this initialization avoids this
      problem.

      net: Remove usage of net_device last_rx member · 4a7c9726
      Tobias Klauser 提交于
      The network stack no longer uses the last_rx member of struct net_device
      since the bonding driver switched to use its own private last_rx in
      commit 9f242738 ("bonding: use last_arp_rx in slave_last_rx()").
      
      However, some drivers still (ab)use the field for their own purposes and
      some driver just update it without actually using it.
      
      Previously, there was an accompanying comment for the last_rx member
      added in commit 4dc89133 ("net: add a comment on netdev->last_rx")
      which asked drivers not to update is, unless really needed. However,
      this commend was removed in commit f8ff080d ("bonding: remove
      useless updating of slave->dev->last_rx"), so some drivers added later
      on still did update last_rx.
      
      Remove all usage of last_rx and switch three drivers (sky2, atp and
      smc91c92_cs) which actually read and write it to use their own private
      copy in netdev_priv.
      
      Compile-tested with allyesconfig and allmodconfig on x86 and arm.

      batman-adv: Revert "use core MTU range checking in misc drivers" · 701470ba
      Sven Eckelmann 提交于
      The maximum MTU is defined via the slave devices of an batman-adv
      interface. Thus it is not possible to calculate the max_mtu during the
      creation of the batman-adv device when no slave devices are attached. Doing
      so would for example break non-fragmentation setups which then
      (incorrectly) allow an MTU of 1500 even when underlying device cannot
      transport 1500 bytes + batman-adv headers.
      
      Checking the dynamically calculated max_mtu via the minimum of the slave
      devices MTU during .ndo_change_mtu is also used by the bridge interface.
