* SUNRPC: Remove resource leak in svc_rdma_send_error()Jesper Juhl2011-03-101-0/+1

* SUNRPC: Close a race in __rpc_wait_for_completion_task()Trond Myklebust2011-03-101-14/+61
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Although they run as rpciod background tasks, under normal operation (i.e. no SIGKILL), functions like nfs_sillyrename(), nfs4_proc_unlck() and nfs4_do_close() want to be fully synchronous. This means that when we exit, we want all references to the rpc_task to be gone, and we want any dentry references etc. held by that task to be released. For this reason these functions call __rpc_wait_for_completion_task(), followed by rpc_put_task() in the expectation that the latter will be releasing the last reference to the rpc_task, and thus ensuring that the callback_ops->rpc_release() has been called synchronously. This patch fixes a race which exists due to the fact that rpciod calls rpc_complete_task() (in order to wake up the callers of __rpc_wait_for_completion_task()) and then subsequently calls rpc_put_task() without ensuring that these two steps are done atomically. In order to avoid adding new spin locks, the patch uses the existing waitqueue spin lock to order the rpc_task reference count releases between the waiting process and rpciod. The common case where nobody is waiting for completion is optimised for by checking if the RPC_TASK_ASYNC flag is cleared and/or if the rpc_task reference count is 1: in those cases we drop trying to grab the spin lock, and immediately free up the rpc_task. Those few processes that need to put the rpc_task from inside an asynchronous context and that do not care about ordering are given a new helper: rpc_put_task_async().

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The standby logic used to be pretty dependent on the work requeueing behavior that changed when we switched to WQ_NON_REENTRANT. It was also very fragile. Restructure things so that: - We clear WRITE_PENDING when we set STANDBY. This ensures we will requeue work when we wake up later. - con_work backs off if STANDBY is set. There is nothing to do if we are in standby. - clear_standby() helper is called by both con_send() and con_keepalive(), the two actions that can wake us up again. Move the connect_seq++ logic here.

| * libceph: fix msgr backoffSage Weil2011-03-041-2/+28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With commit f363e45f we replaced a bunch of hacky workqueue mutual exclusion logic with the WQ_NON_REENTRANT flag. One pieces of fallout is that the exponential backoff breaks in certain cases: * con_work attempts to connect. * we get an immediate failure, and the socket state change handler queues immediate work. * con_work calls con_fault, we decide to back off, but can't queue delayed work. In this case, we add a BACKOFF bit to make con_work reschedule delayed work next time it runs (which should be immediately). Signed-off-by: Sage Weil <sage@newdream.net>
| * libceph: retry after authorization failureSage Weil2011-03-031-2/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If we mark the connection CLOSED we will give up trying to reconnect to this server instance. That is appropriate for things like a protocol version mismatch that won't change until the server is restarted, at which point we'll get a new addr and reconnect. An authorization failure like this is probably due to the server not properly rotating it's secret keys, however, and should be treated as transient so that the normal backoff and retry behavior kicks in.

Give the DNS resolver key its own read handler that returns the error cached in key->type_data.x[0] as an error rather than crashing. Also make the kenter() at the beginning of dns_resolver_instantiate() limit the amount of data it prints, since the data is not necessarily NUL-terminated. The buggy code was added in: commit 4a2d789267e00b5a1175ecd2ddefcc78b83fbf09 Author: Wang Lei <wang840925@gmail.com> Date: Wed Aug 11 09:37:58 2010 +0100 Subject: DNS: If the DNS server returns an error, allow that to be cached [ver #2] This can trivially be reproduced by any user with the following program compiled with -lkeyutils: #include <stdlib.h> #include <keyutils.h> #include <err.h> static char payload[] = "#dnserror=6"; int main() { key_serial_t key; key = add_key("dns_resolver", "a", payload, sizeof(payload), KEY_SPEC_SESSION_KEYRING); if (key == -1) err(1, "add_key"); if (keyctl_read(key, NULL, 0) == -1) err(1, "read_key"); return 0; } What should happen is that keyctl_read() reports error 6 (ENXIO) to the user: dns-break: read_key: No such device or address but instead the kernel oopses. This cannot be reproduced with the 'keyutils add' or 'keyutils padd' commands as both of those cut the data down below the NUL termination that must be included in the data. Without this dns_resolver_instantiate() will return -EINVAL and the key will not be instantiated such that it can be read.

It generates output data, when a previous portion has been returned to user space. This mechanism works when all data isn't go in skb. If we enter in netlink_recvmsg() and skb is absent in the recv queue, the netlink_dump() will not been executed. So if netlink_dump() is failed one time, the new data never appear and the reader will sleep forever. netlink_dump() is called from two places: 1. from netlink_sendmsg->...->netlink_dump_start(). In this place we can report error directly and it will be returned by sendmsg(). 2. from netlink_recvmsg There we can't report error directly, because we have a portion of valid output data and call netlink_dump() for prepare the next portion. If netlink_dump() is failed, the socket will be mark as error and the next recvmsg will be failed. Signed-off-by: Andrey Vagin <avagin@openvz.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

| * | | bridge: Use IPv6 link-local address for multicast listener queriesLinus Lüssing2011-02-221-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently the bridge multicast snooping feature periodically issues IPv6 general multicast listener queries to sense the absence of a listener. For this, it uses :: as its source address - however RFC 2710 requires: "To be valid, the Query message MUST come from a link-local IPv6 Source Address". Current Linux kernel versions seem to follow this requirement and ignore our bogus MLD queries. With this commit a link local address from the bridge interface is being used to issue the MLD query, resulting in other Linux devices which are multicast listeners in the network to respond with a MLD response (which was not the case before).

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Map the IPv6 header's destination multicast address to an ethernet source address instead of the MLD queries multicast address. For instance for a general MLD query (multicast address in the MLD query set to ::), this would wrongly be mapped to 33:33:00:00:00:00, although an MLD queries destination MAC should always be 33:33:00:00:00:01 which matches the IPv6 header's multicast destination ff02::1.

I assume this has been done to leave important multicast data untouched, like IPv6 Neighborhood Discovery. In larger, bridged, local networks it could however be desirable to optimize for instance local multicast audio/video streaming too. With the transient flag in IPv6 multicast addresses we have an easy way to optimize such multimedia traffic without tempering with the high priority multicast data from well-known addresses. This patch alters the multicast bridge snooping for IPv6, to take effect for transient multicast addresses instead of non-link-local addresses.

Biederman <ebiederm@xmission.com> In the beginning with batching unreg_list was a list that was used only once in the lifetime of a network device (I think). Now we have calls using the unreg_list that can happen multiple times in the life of a network device like dev_deactivate and dev_close that are also using the unreg_list. In addition in unregister_netdevice_queue we also do a list_move because for devices like veth pairs it is possible that unregister_netdevice_queue will be called multiple times. So I think the change below to fix dev_deactivate which Eric D. missed will fix this problem. Now to go test that. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Either all of these spots will need to add a test for sk->sk_state != TCP_TIME_WAIT, or xt_TPROXY must not assign a timewait socket to skb->sk. This does the latter. If a TW socket is found, assign the tproxy nfmark, but skip the skb->sk assignment, thus mimicking behaviour of a '-m socket .. -j MARK/ACCEPT' re-routing rule. The 'SYN to TW socket' case is left unchanged -- we try to redirect to the listener socket.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If we get EAGAIN when trying to read from the socket, it is not an error. Return 0 from the helper in this case to simplify the error handling cases in the caller (indirectly, try_read). Fix try_read to pass any error to it's caller (con_work) instead of almost always returning 0. This let's us respond to things like socket disconnects. Signed-off-by: Sage Weil <sage@newdream.net>

Biderman and Michal Hocko reported various memory corruptions that we suspected to be related to a LIST head located on stack, that was manipulated after thread left function frame (and eventually exited, so its stack was freed and reused). Eric Dumazet suggested the problem was probably coming from commit 443457242beb (net: factorize sync-rcu call in unregister_netdevice_many) This patch fixes __dev_close() and dev_close() to properly deinit their respective LIST_HEAD(single) before exiting.

In the later cases the sysctl option is present because link notification events can have undesired effects e.g. if the link is flapping. I don't think this applies in the case of an explicit request from a driver. This patch makes NETDEV_NOTIFY_PEER unconditional, if preferred we could add a new sysctl for this case which defaults to on. This change causes Xen post-migration ARP notifications (which cause switches to relearn their MAC tables etc) to be sent by default.
