We create new flow caches when a new flow is identified by tuntap, This may lead some issues: - userspace may produce a huge amount of short live flows to exhaust host memory - the unlimited number of flow caches may produce a long list which increase the time in the linear searching Solve this by introducing a limit of total number of flow caches.

A MAX_TAP_QUEUES(1024) queues of tuntap device is always allocated unconditionally even userspace only requires a single queue device. This is unnecessary and will lead a very high order of page allocation when has a high possibility to fail. Solving this by creating a one queue net device when userspace only use one queue and also reduce MAX_TAP_QUEUES to DEFAULT_MAX_NUM_RSS_QUEUES which can guarantee the success of the allocation.

Reverting 328d7b8a and instead adding an exception for the Sierra Wireless MC7710. commit 328d7b8a (net: cdc_mbim: send ZLP after max sized NTBs) added a workaround for an issue observed on one specific device. Concerns were raised that this workaround adds a performance penalty to all devices based on questionable, if not buggy, behaviour of a single device: "If you add ZLP for NTBs of dwNtbOutMaxSize, you are heavily affecting CPU load, increasing interrupt load by factor of 2 in high load traffic scenario and possibly decreasing throughput for all other devices which behaves correctly." "The idea of NCM was to avoid extra ZLPs. If your transfer is exactly dwNtbOutMaxSize, it's known, you can submit such request on the receiver side and you do not need any EOT indicatation, so the frametime can be used for useful data." Adding a device specific exception to prevent the workaround from affecting well behaved devices. The assumption here is that needing a ZLP is truly an *exception*. We do not yet have enough data to verify this. The generic workaround in commit 328d7b8a should be considered acceptable despite the performance penalty if the exception list becomes a maintainance hassle.

Christoph Paasch found netxen could trigger a BUG in its dismantle phase, in netxen_release_tx_buffer(), using full size TSO packets. cmd_buf->frag_count includes the skb->data part, so the loop must start at index 1 instead of 0, or else we can make an out of bound access to cmd_buff->frag_array[MAX_SKB_FRAGS + 2] Christoph provided the fixes in netxen_map_tx_skb() function.

We normally avoid sending ZLPs by padding NTBs with a zero byte if the NTB is shorter than dwNtbOutMaxSize, resulting in a short USB packet instead of a ZLP. But in the case where the NTB length is exactly dwNtbOutMaxSize and this is an exact multiplum of wMaxPacketSize, then we must send a ZLP. This fixes an issue seen on a Sierra Wireless MC7710 device where the transmission would fail whenever we ended up padding the NTBs to max size.

Adding support for the MBIM mode in some Sierra Wireless devices. Some Sierra Wireless firmwares support CDC MBIM but have no CDC Union funtional descriptor. This violates the MBIM specification, but we can easily work around the bug by looking at the Interface Association Descriptor instead. This is most likely what Windows uses too, which explains how the firmware bug has gone unnoticed until now. This change will not affect any currently supported device conforming to the NCM or MBIM specifications, as they must have the CDC Union descriptor.

The lines if (mlx4_is_mfunc(dev)) { nreq = 2; } else { which hard code the number of requested msi-x vectors under multi-function mode to two can be removed completely, since the firmware sets num_eqs and reserved_eqs appropriately Thus, the code line: nreq = min_t(int, dev->caps.num_eqs - dev->caps.reserved_eqs, nreq); is by itself sufficient and correct for all cases. Currently, for mfunc mode num_eqs = 32 and reserved_eqs = 28, hence four vectors will be enabled.

Commit 5b4c4d36 "mlx4_en: Allow communication between functions on same host" introduced a regression under which a bridge acting as vSwitch whose uplink is an mlx4 Ethernet device become non-operative in native (non sriov) mode. This happens since broadcast ARP requests sent by VMs were loopback-ed by the HW and hence the bridge learned VM source MACs on both the VM and the uplink ports. The fix is to place the DMAC in the send WQE only under SRIOV/eSwitch configuration or when the device is in selftest.

由 Paul Moore 提交于
This patch corrects some problems with LSM/SELinux that were introduced with the multiqueue patchset. The problem stems from the fact that the multiqueue work changed the relationship between the tun device and its associated socket; before the socket persisted for the life of the device, however after the multiqueue changes the socket only persisted for the life of the userspace connection (fd open). For non-persistent devices this is not an issue, but for persistent devices this can cause the tun device to lose its SELinux label. We correct this problem by adding an opaque LSM security blob to the tun device struct which allows us to have the LSM security state, e.g. SELinux labeling information, persist for the lifetime of the tun device. In the process we tweak the LSM hooks to work with this new approach to TUN device/socket labeling and introduce a new LSM hook, security_tun_dev_attach_queue(), to approve requests to attach to a TUN queue via TUNSETQUEUE. The SELinux code has been adjusted to match the new LSM hooks, the other LSMs do not make use of the LSM TUN controls. This patch makes use of the recently added "tun_socket:attach_queue" permission to restrict access to the TUNSETQUEUE operation. On older SELinux policies which do not define the "tun_socket:attach_queue" permission the access control decision for TUNSETQUEUE will be handled according to the SELinux policy's unknown permission setting.

The commit "ath9k: fix rx flush handling" added a deadlock that happens because ath_rx_tasklet is called in a section that has already taken the rx buffer lock. It seems that the only purpose of the rxbuflock was a band-aid fix to the reset vs rx tasklet race, which has been properly fixed in the commit "ath9k: add a better fix for the rx tasklet vs rx flush race". Now that the fix is in, we can safely remove the lock to avoid such issues.

由 Sathya Perla 提交于
commit e49cc34f introduced an unconditional IRQ_HANDLED return in be_intx() to workaround Lancer and BE2 HW issues. This is bad as it prevents the kernel from detecting interrupt storms due to broken HW. The BE2/Lancer HW issues are: 1) In Lancer, there is no means for the driver to detect if the interrupt belonged to device, other than counting and notifying events. 2) In Lancer de-asserting INTx takes a while, causing the INTx irq handler to be called multiple times till the de-assert happens. 3) In BE2, we see an occasional interrupt even when EQs are unarmed. Issue (1) can cause the notified events to be orphaned, if NAPI was already running. This patch fixes this issue by scheduling NAPI only if it is not scheduled already. Doing this also takes care of possible events_get() race that may be caused due to issue (2) and (3). Also, IRQ_HANDLED is returned only the first time zero events are detected.

It is werid that qlge driver supports NETIF_F_TSO6 but not NETIF_F_IPV6_CSUM. This also causes some kernel warning [1] when VLAN device setups on a qlge interface. I think the qlge hardware doesn't support NETIF_F_IPV6_CSUM, so we have to just remove the NETIF_F_TSO6 flag. After this patch, the TCP/IPv6 traffic becomes normal again, no kernel warnings any more. NOTE: I only tested it on 2.6.32 kernel, even if the upstream kernel could fix this automatically (it is hard to track NETIF* flags), removing it is also safe. 1. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=891839 Cc: Jitendra Kalsaria <jitendra.kalsaria@qlogic.com> Cc: Ron Mercer <ron.mercer@qlogic.com> Cc: linux-driver@qlogic.com Cc: David S.

Right now the rx flush is not doing anything useful on AR9003+, as it only works if the buffers in the rx FIFO have not been purged yet, as is done by ath_stoprecv. To fix this, always call ath_flushrecv from within ath_stoprecv before the FIFO is emptied, but still after the hw receive path has been stopped. This ensures that frames received (and ACKed by the hardware) shortly before a reset will be seen by the software, which should improve A-MPDU session stability.
