Dan Carpenter contacted me with some notes regarding some smatch warnings in the netpoll code, some of which I introduced with my recent netpoll locking fixes, some which were there prior. Specifically they were: net-next/net/core/netpoll.c:243 netpoll_poll_dev() warn: inconsistent returns mutex:&ni->dev_lock: locked (213,217) unlocked (210,243) net-next/net/core/netpoll.c:706 netpoll_neigh_reply() warn: potential pointer math issue ('skb_transport_header(send_skb)' is a 128 bit pointer) This patch corrects the locking imbalance (the first error), and adds some parenthesis to correct the second error.

__netpoll_rcu_free is used to free netpoll structures when the rtnl_lock is already held. The mechanism is used to asynchronously call __netpoll_cleanup outside of the holding of the rtnl_lock, so as to avoid deadlock. Unfortunately, __netpoll_cleanup modifies pointers (dev->np), which means the rtnl_lock must be held while calling it. Further, it cannot be held, because rcu callbacks may be issued in softirq contexts, which cannot sleep. Fix this by converting the rcu callback to a work queue that is guaranteed to get scheduled in process context, so that we can hold the rtnl properly while calling __netpoll_cleanup Tested successfully by myself.

Ivan Vercera was recently backporting commit 9c13cb8b to a RHEL kernel, and I noticed that, while this patch protects the tg3 driver from having its ndo_poll_controller routine called during device initalization, it does nothing for the driver during shutdown. I.e. it would be entirely possible to have the ndo_poll_controller method (or subsequently the ndo_poll) routine called for a driver in the netpoll path on CPU A while in parallel on CPU B, the ndo_close or ndo_open routine could be called. Given that the two latter routines tend to initizlize and free many data structures that the former two rely on, the result can easily be data corruption or various other crashes. Furthermore, it seems that this is potentially a problem with all net drivers that support netpoll, and so this should ideally be fixed in a common path. As Ben H Pointed out to me, we can't preform dev_open/dev_close in atomic context, so I've come up with this solution. We can use a mutex to sleep in open/close paths and just do a mutex_trylock in the napi poll path and abandon the poll attempt if we're locked, as we'll just retry the poll on the next send anyway. I've tested this here by flooding netconsole with messages on a system whos nic driver I modfied to periodically return NETDEV_TX_BUSY, so that the netpoll tx workqueue would be forced to send frames and poll the device. While this was going on I rapidly ifdown/up'ed the interface and watched for any problems. I've not found any.

Bogdan Hamciuc diagnosed and fixed following bug in netpoll_send_udp() : "skb->len += len;" instead of "skb_put(skb, len);" Meaning that _if_ a network driver needs to call skb_realloc_headroom(), only packet headers would be copied, leaving garbage in the payload. However the skb_realloc_headroom() must be avoided as much as possible since it requires memory and netpoll tries hard to work even if memory is exhausted (using a pool of preallocated skbs) It appears netpoll_send_udp() reserved 16 bytes for the ethernet header, which happens to work for typicall drivers but not all. Right thing is to use LL_RESERVED_SPACE(dev) (And also add dev->needed_tailroom of tailroom) This patch combines both fixes. Many thanks to Bogdan for raising this issue.

net: Remove all uses of LL_ALLOCATED_SPACE The macro LL_ALLOCATED_SPACE was ill-conceived. It applies the alignment to the sum of needed_headroom and needed_tailroom. As the amount that is then reserved for head room is needed_headroom with alignment, this means that the tail room left may be too small.
