| | | * | | | | | | | | SUNRPC: Use a cached RPC client and transport for rpcbind upcallsChuck Lever2009-12-032-16/+80
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The kernel's rpcbind client creates and deletes an rpc_clnt and its underlying transport socket for every upcall to the local rpcbind daemon. When starting a typical NFS server on IPv4 and IPv6, the NFS service itself does three upcalls (one per version) times two upcalls (one per transport) times two upcalls (one per address family), making 12, plus another one for the initial call to unregister previous NFS services. Starting the NLM service adds an additional 13 upcalls, for similar reasons. (Currently the NFS service doesn't start IPv6 listeners, but it will soon enough). Instead, let's create an rpc_clnt for rpcbind upcalls during the first local rpcbind query, and cache it. This saves the overhead of creating and destroying an rpc_clnt and a socket for every upcall. The new logic also prevents the kernel from attempting an RPCB_SET or RPCB_UNSET if it knows from the start that the local portmapper does not support rpcbind protocol version 4. This will cut down on the number of rpcbind upcalls in legacy environments. Signed-off-by: Chuck Lever <chuck.lever@oracle.com>

| | | * | | | | | | | | SUNRPC: Allow RPCs to fail quickly if the server is unreachableChuck Lever2009-12-032-3/+10

Because the kernel's RPC client always assumes the hard retry semantic when reconnecting a connection-oriented RPC transport, the underlying reconnect logic takes a long while to time out, even though the remote may have responded immediately with ECONNREFUSED. In certain cases, like upcalls to our local rpcbind daemon, or for NFS mount requests, we'd like the kernel to fail immediately if the remote service isn't reachable. This allows another transport to be tried immediately, or the pending request can be abandoned quickly. Introduce a per-request flag which controls how call_transmit_status() behaves when request transmission fails because the server cannot be reached. We don't want soft connection semantics to apply to other errors. The default case of the switch statement in call_transmit_status() no longer falls through; the fall through code is copied to the default case, and a "break;" is added. The transport's connection re-establishment timeout is also ignored for such requests. We want the request to fail immediately, so the reconnect delay is skipped. Additionally, we don't want a connect failure here to further increase the reconnect timeout value, since this request will not be retried.

The default: arm of the switch statement in call_transmit_status() handles the 0 case. default: was moved close to the top of the switch statement in call_transmit_status() under the theory that the compiler places object code for the earliest arms of a switch statement first, making the CPU do less work. The default: arm of a switch statement, however, is executed only after all the other cases have been checked. Even if the compiler rearranges the object code, the default: arm is the "last resort", meaning all of the other cases have been explicitly exhausted. That makes the current arrangement about as inefficient as it gets for the common case. To fix this, add an explicit check for zero before the switch statement. That forces the compiler to do the zero check first, no matter what optimizations it might try to do to the switch statement.

Should this happen, then we can end up calling hlist_del_rcu(&cred->cr_hash) a second time in put_rpccred, thus causing list corruption. Should the credential actually be hashed, it is also possible for rpcauth_lookup_credcache to find and reference it before we get round to unhashing it. In this case, the call to rpcauth_unhash_cred will fail, and so we should just exit without destroying the cred.

The debug log shows: 1945 186786 pf_sample 50 3534 3577 50 My interpretation is that the fixed point scaling of the target error value (pf) is incorrect: the error value of 50 compared to a target of 14 case should result in a scaling value of (14-50) = -36 * 256 or -9216, but instead it is (14 * 256)-50, or 3534. Correct this by doing fixed point scaling after subtraction.

The bug halt occured because the page that I passed to kfree failed the PageCompound and PageSlab test in the slub implementation of kfree. I tracked the problem down to the following set of events: 1) dccp, unlike all other uses of kmem_cache_create, allocates a string dynamically when registering a slab cache. This allocated string is freed when the cache is destroyed. 2) Normally, (1) is not an issue, but when Slub is in use, it is possible that caches are 'merged'. This process causes multiple caches of simmilar configuration to use the same cache data structure. When this happens, the new name of the cache is effectively dropped. 3) (2) results in kmem_cache_name returning an ambigous value (i.e. ccid_kmem_cache_destroy, which uses this fuction to retrieve the name pointer for freeing), is no longer guaranteed that the string it assigned is what is returned. 4) If such merge event occurs, ccid_kmem_cache_destroy frees the wrong pointer, which trips over the BUG in the slub implementation of kfree (since its likely not a slab allocation, but rather a pointer into the static string table section. So, what to do about this. At first blush this is pretty clearly a leak in the information that slub owns, and as such a slub bug. Unfortunately, theres no really good way to fix it, without exposing slub specific implementation details to the generic slab interface. Also, even if we could fix this in slub cleanly, I think the RCU free option would force us to do lots of string duplication, not only in slub, but in every slab allocator. As such, I'd like to propose this solution. Basically, I just move the storage for the kmem cache name to the ccid_operations structure. In so doing, we don't have to do the kstrdup or kfree when we allocate/free the various caches for dccp, and so we avoid the problem, by storing names with static memory, rather than heap, the way all other calls to kmem_cache_create do. I've tested this out myself here, and it solves the problem quite well. Signed-off-by: Neil Horman <nhorman@tuxdriver.com> Acked-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

When built as modules, the dccp_probe module has a silent dependency on the dccp module. This stems from the fact that the module_init routine of dccp_probe registers a jprobe on the dccp_sendmsg symbol. Since the symbol is only referenced as a text string (the .symbol_name field in the jprobe struct) rather than the address of the symbol itself, depmod never picks this dependency up, and so if you load the dccp_probe module without the dccp module loaded, the register_jprobe call fails with an -EINVAL, and the whole module load fails. The fix is pretty easy, we can just wrap the register_jprobe call in a try_then_request_module call, which forces the dependency to get satisfied prior to the probe registration.

Just like in CVE-2007-4567, we can't rely upon skb_dst() being non-NULL at this point. We fixed that in commit e76b2b2567b83448c2ee85a896433b96150c92e6 ("[IPV6]: Do no rely on skb->dst before it is assigned.") However commit 483a47d2fe794328d29950fe00ce26dd405d9437 ("ipv6: added net argument to IP6_INC_STATS_BH") put a new version of the same bug into this function. Complicating analysis further, this bug can only trigger when network namespaces are enabled in the build. When namespaces are turned off, the dev_net() does not evaluate it's argument, so the dereference would not occur. So, for a long time, namespaces couldn't be turned on unless SYSFS was disabled. Therefore, this code has largely been disabled except by people turning it on explicitly for namespace development. With help from Eugene Teo <eugene@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

However this assumption is incorrect, since ieee80211_select_queue has not been called at this point. If skb->priority > 7, an array overrun occurs, which could lead to invalid values, resulting in crashes in the tx path. Fix this by setting skb->priority based on the 802.11 header for QoS frames and using the default AC for all non-QoS frames. Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org> Signed-off-by: John W.

This means that packets are queued in mac80211 and the upper layers never know, possibly leading to memory exhaustion and other problems. This patch makes all interfaces multiqueue and uses ndo_select_queue to put the packets into queues per AC. Additionally, when the driver stops a queue, we now stop all corresponding queues for the virtual interfaces as well. The injection case will use VO by default for non-data frames, and BE for data frames, but downgrade any data frames according to ACM. It needs to be fleshed out in the future to allow chosing the queue/AC in radiotap.

The mc_loop flag is present in the family specific part of the socket (e.g. the IPv4 or IPv4 specific part). setsockopt sets the inner family mc_loop flag. When the packet is pushed through the L3 tunnel it will eventually be processed by the outer family which if different will check the flag in a different part of the socket then it was set.

For suspend and resume this is important due to all the possible issues that can come out of the suspend <-> resume cycle. Not propagating the error means cfg80211 will assume the resume for the device went through fine and mac80211 will continue on trying to poke at the hardware, enable timers, queue work, and so on for a device which is completley unfunctional. The least we can do is to propagate device start issues and warn when this occurs upon resume. A side effect of this patch is we also now propagate the start errors upon harware reconfigurations (non-suspend), but this should also be desirable anyway, there is not point in continuing to reconfigure a device if mac80211 was unable to start the device.

If such calls are made, however, suspend can end up throwing hardware in an unexpected state and making the device unusable upon resume. Fix this by preventing mac80211 to schedule dynamic_ps_disable_work by checking for when mac80211 starts to suspend and starts quiescing. Frames should be allowed to go through though as that is part of the quiescing steps and we do not flush the mac80211 workqueue since it was already done towards the beginning of suspend cycle. The other mac80211 issue will be hanled in the next patch. For further details see refer to the thread: http://marc.info/?t=126144866100001&r=1&w=2 Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Luis R.

In that case, it may happen that mac80211 tries to report the assoc success to cfg80211, but gets blocked on the wdev lock that is held because the user is requesting the deauth. The result is that we run into a warning. This is mostly harmless, but maybe cause an unexpected event to be sent to userspace; we'd send an assoc success event although userspace was no longer expecting that. To fix this, remove the warning and check whether the race happened and in that case abort processing.

When that happens, it fails to bring up the interface entirely, because it checks for existing sta entries before joining. This patch fixes this bug by refusing to create sta info entries before the interface is fully operational. Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org> Signed-off-by: John W.

One such a case is transparent proxying where we pretend to be the destination system and therefore the local table is used for incoming packets but possibly a main table would be used on outbound.

These are now valid return values from ndo_start_xmit in net-next-2.6. They also indicate the skb has been consumed. This fixes pktgen to work correctly with vlan devices.

If, as is usually the case, the AP uses WMM parameter set sequence number zero, we'd never update it until the AP changes the sequence number. Add the missing initialisation back to get the WMM settings from the AP applied locally.

Instead of overwriting the SM PS settings with the local bits, we need to keep the remote bits. The bug was part of the original HT code from over two years ago, but unfortunately nobody noticed that it makes no sense -- we shouldn't be overwriting the peer's setting with our own but rather keep it intact when masking the peer capabilities with our own. While fixing that, I noticed that the masking of capabilities is completely useless for most of the bits, so also fix those other bits. Finally, I also noticed that PSMP_SUPPORT no longer exists in the final 802.11n version, so also remove that. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W.
