1.
JIT compiler using multi-pass approach to converge to final image size,
since x86 instructions are variable length. It starts with large
gaps between instructions (so some jumps may use imm32 instead of imm8)
and iterates until total program size is the same as in previous pass.
This algorithm works only if program size is strictly decreasing.
Programs that use LD_ABS insn need additional code in prologue, but it
was not emitted during 1st pass, so there was a chance that 2nd pass would
adjust imm32->imm8 jump offsets to the same number of bytes as increase in
prologue, which may cause algorithm to erroneously decide that size converged.
Fix it by always emitting largest prologue in the first pass which
is detected by oldproglen==0 check.
Also change error check condition 'proglen != oldproglen' to fail gracefully.
2.
while staring at the code realized that 64-byte buffer may not be enough
when 1st insn is large, so increase it to 128 to avoid buffer overflow
(theoretical maximum size of prologue+div is 109) and add runtime check.

====================
Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
... where ASCONF_a, ASCONF_b, ..., ASCONF_z are good-formed
ASCONFs and have increasing serial numbers, we process such
ASCONF chunk(s) marked with !end_of_packet and !singleton,
since we have not yet reached the SCTP packet end. SCTP does
only do verification on a chunk by chunk basis, as an SCTP
packet is nothing more than just a container of a stream of
chunks which it eats up one by one.
We could run into the case that we receive a packet with a
malformed tail, above marked as trailing JUNK. All previous
chunks are here goodformed, so the stack will eat up all
previous chunks up to this point. In case JUNK does not fit
into a chunk header and there are no more other chunks in
the input queue, or in case JUNK contains a garbage chunk
header, but the encoded chunk length would exceed the skb
tail, or we came here from an entirely different scenario
and the chunk has pdiscard=1 mark (without having had a flush
point), it will happen, that we will excessively queue up
the association's output queue (a correct final chunk may
then turn it into a response flood when flushing the
queue ;)): I ran a simple script with incremental ASCONF
serial numbers and could see the server side consuming
excessive amount of RAM [before/after: up to 2GB and more].
The issue at heart is that the chunk train basically ends
with !end_of_packet and !singleton markers and since commit 2e3216cd54b1 ("sctp: Follow security requirement of responding
with 1 packet") therefore preventing an output queue flush
point in sctp_do_sm() -> sctp_cmd_interpreter() on the input
chunk (chunk = event_arg) even though local_cork is set,
but its precedence has changed since then. In the normal
case, the last chunk with end_of_packet=1 would trigger the
queue flush to accommodate possible outgoing bundling.
In the input queue, sctp_inq_pop() seems to do the right thing
in terms of discarding invalid chunks. So, above JUNK will
not enter the state machine and instead be released and exit
the sctp_assoc_bh_rcv() chunk processing loop. It's simply
the flush point being missing at loop exit. Adding a try-flush
approach on the output queue might not work as the underlying
infrastructure might be long gone at this point due to the
side-effect interpreter run.
One possibility, albeit a bit of a kludge, would be to defer
invalid chunk freeing into the state machine in order to
possibly trigger packet discards and thus indirectly a queue
flush on error. It would surely be better to discard chunks
as in the current, perhaps better controlled environment, but
going back and forth, it's simply architecturally not possible.
I tried various trailing JUNK attack cases and it seems to
look good now.

... where ASCONF_a equals ASCONF_b chunk (at least both serials
need to be equal), we panic an SCTP server!
The problem is that good-formed ASCONF chunks that we reply with
ASCONF_ACK chunks are cached per serial. Thus, when we receive a
same ASCONF chunk twice (e.g. through a lost ASCONF_ACK), we do
not need to process them again on the server side (that was the
idea, also proposed in the RFC). Instead, we know it was cached
and we just resend the cached chunk instead. So far, so good.
Where things get nasty is in SCTP's side effect interpreter, that
is, sctp_cmd_interpreter():
While incoming ASCONF_a (chunk = event_arg) is being marked
!end_of_packet and !singleton, and we have an association context,
we do not flush the outqueue the first time after processing the
ASCONF_ACK singleton chunk via SCTP_CMD_REPLY. Instead, we keep it
queued up, although we set local_cork to 1. Commit 2e3216cd54b1
changed the precedence, so that as long as we get bundled, incoming
chunks we try possible bundling on outgoing queue as well. Before
this commit, we would just flush the output queue.
Now, while ASCONF_a's ASCONF_ACK sits in the corked outq, we
continue to process the same ASCONF_b chunk from the packet. As
we have cached the previous ASCONF_ACK, we find it, grab it and
do another SCTP_CMD_REPLY command on it. So, effectively, we rip
the chunk->list pointers and requeue the same ASCONF_ACK chunk
another time. Since we process ASCONF_b, it's correctly marked
with end_of_packet and we enforce an uncork, and thus flush, thus
crashing the kernel.
Fix it by testing if the ASCONF_ACK is currently pending and if
that is the case, do not requeue it. When flushing the output
queue we may relink the chunk for preparing an outgoing packet,
but eventually unlink it when it's copied into the skb right
before transmission.

net: sctp: fix skb_over_panic when receiving malformed ASCONF chunks
Commit 6f4c618ddb0 ("SCTP : Add paramters validity check for
ASCONF chunk") added basic verification of ASCONF chunks, however,
it is still possible to remotely crash a server by sending a
special crafted ASCONF chunk, even up to pre 2.6.12 kernels:
... where ASCONF chunk of length 280 contains 2 parameters ...
1) Add IP address parameter (param length: 16)
2) Add/del IP address parameter (param length: 255)
... followed by an UNKNOWN chunk of e.g. 4 bytes. Here, the
Address Parameter in the ASCONF chunk is even missing, too.
This is just an example and similarly-crafted ASCONF chunks
could be used just as well.
The ASCONF chunk passes through sctp_verify_asconf() as all
parameters passed sanity checks, and after walking, we ended
up successfully at the chunk end boundary, and thus may invoke
sctp_process_asconf(). Parameter walking is done with
WORD_ROUND() to take padding into account.
In sctp_process_asconf()'s TLV processing, we may fail in
sctp_process_asconf_param() e.g., due to removal of the IP
address that is also the source address of the packet containing
the ASCONF chunk, and thus we need to add all TLVs after the
failure to our ASCONF response to remote via helper function
sctp_add_asconf_response(), which basically invokes a
sctp_addto_chunk() adding the error parameters to the given
skb.
When walking to the next parameter this time, we proceed
with ...
... instead of the WORD_ROUND()'ed length, thus resulting here
in an off-by-one that leads to reading the follow-up garbage
parameter length of 12336, and thus throwing an skb_over_panic
for the reply when trying to sctp_addto_chunk() next time,
which implicitly calls the skb_put() with that length.
Fix it by using sctp_walk_params() [ which is also used in
INIT parameter processing ] macro in the verification *and*
in ASCONF processing: it will make sure we don't spill over,
that we walk parameters WORD_ROUND()'ed. Moreover, we're being
more defensive and guard against unknown parameter types and
missized addresses.

Commit b629be5c8399d7c423b92135eb43a86c924d1cbc ("net: bcmgenet: check
harder for out of memory conditions") moved the increment of the local
read pointer *before* reading from the hardware descriptor using
dmadesc_get_length_status(), which creates an off-by-one situation.
Fix this by moving again the read_ptr increment after we have read the
hardware descriptor to get both the control block and the read pointer
back in sync.

flow-dissector: Fix alignment issue in __skb_flow_get_ports
This patch addresses a kernel unaligned access bug seen on a sparc64 system
with an igb adapter. Specifically the __skb_flow_get_ports was returning a
be32 pointer which was then having the value directly returned.
In order to prevent this it is actually easier to simply not populate the
ports or address values when an skb is not present. In this case the
assumption is that the data isn't needed and rather than slow down the
faster aligned accesses by making them have to assume the unaligned path on
architectures that don't support efficent unaligned access it makes more
sense to simply switch off the bits that were copying the source and
destination address/port for the case where we only care about the protocol
types and lengths which are normally 16 bit fields anyway.

So after porting this optimization to net-next, I found that the netperf
results of TCP_RR regress right at the maximum peak of transactions/sec. That
is as I increase the number of threads via the first argument to super_netperf,
the number of transactions/sec keep increasing, peak, and then start
decreasing. It is right at the peak, that I see a small regression with this
patch (see results in patch 2/2).
Without the patch, the ksoftirqd threads are the top cpu consumers threads on
the system, since the extra 'netif_rx()', is queuing more softirq work, whereas
with the patch, the ksoftirqd threads are below all of the 'netserver' threads
in terms of their cpu usage. So there appears to be some interaction between how
softirqs are serviced at the peak here and this patch. I think the test results
are still supportive of this approach, but I wanted to be clear on my findings.

The netif_rx() call on the fast path of macvlan_handle_frame() appears to
be there to ensure that we properly throttle incoming packets. However, it
would appear as though the proper throttling is already in place for all
possible ingress paths, and that the call is redundant. If packets are arriving
from the physical NIC, we've already throttled them by this point. Otherwise,
if they are coming via macvlan_queue_xmit(), it calls either
'dev_forward_skb()', which ends up calling netif_rx_internal(), or else in
the broadcast case, we are throttling via macvlan_broadcast_enqueue().
The test results below are from off the box to an lxc instance running macvlan.
Once the tranactions/sec stop increasing, the cpu idle time has gone to 0.

net_sched: restore qdisc quota fairness limits after bulk dequeue
Restore the quota fairness between qdisc's, that we broke with commit 5772e9a346 ("qdisc: bulk dequeue support for qdiscs with TCQ_F_ONETXQUEUE").
Before that commit, the quota in __qdisc_run() were in packets as
dequeue_skb() would only dequeue a single packet, that assumption
broke with bulk dequeue.
We choose not to account for the number of packets inside the TSO/GSO
packets (accessable via "skb_gso_segs"). As the previous fairness
also had this "defect". Thus, GSO/TSO packets counts as a single
packet.
Further more, we choose to slack on accuracy, by allowing a bulk
dequeue try_bulk_dequeue_skb() to exceed the "packets" limit, only
limited by the BQL bytelimit. This is done because BQL prefers to get
its full budget for appropriate feedback from TX completion.
In future, we might consider reworking this further and, if it allows,
switch to a time-based model, as suggested by Eric. Right now, we only
restore old semantics.
Joint work with Eric, Hannes, Daniel and Jesper. Hannes wrote the
first patch in cooperation with Daniel and Jesper. Eric rewrote the
patch.

Pull networking updates from David Miller:
"Most notable changes in here:
1) By far the biggest accomplishment, thanks to a large range of
contributors, is the addition of multi-send for transmit. This is
the result of discussions back in Chicago, and the hard work of
several individuals.
Now, when the ->ndo_start_xmit() method of a driver sees
skb->xmit_more as true, it can choose to defer the doorbell
telling the driver to start processing the new TX queue entires.
skb->xmit_more means that the generic networking is guaranteed to
call the driver immediately with another SKB to send.
There is logic added to the qdisc layer to dequeue multiple
packets at a time, and the handling mis-predicted offloads in
software is now done with no locks held.
Finally, pktgen is extended to have a "burst" parameter that can
be used to test a multi-send implementation.
Several drivers have xmit_more support: i40e, igb, ixgbe, mlx4,
virtio_net
Adding support is almost trivial, so export more drivers to
support this optimization soon.

4) Significant enhancements to the generic PHY layer and the bcm7xxx
driver in particular (EEE support, auto power down, etc.) from
Florian Fainelli.
5) Allow raw buffers to be used for flow dissection, allowing drivers
to determine the optimal "linear pull" size for devices that DMA
into pools of pages. The objective is to get exactly the
necessary amount of headers into the linear SKB area pre-pulled,
but no more. The new interface drivers use is eth_get_headlen().
From WANG Cong, with driver conversions (several had their own
by-hand duplicated implementations) by Alexander Duyck and Eric
Dumazet.
6) Support checksumming more smoothly and efficiently for
encapsulations, and add "foo over UDP" facility. From Tom
Herbert.
7) Add Broadcom SF2 switch driver to DSA layer, from Florian
Fainelli.
8) eBPF now can load programs via a system call and has an extensive
testsuite. Alexei Starovoitov and Daniel Borkmann.
9) Major overhaul of the packet scheduler to use RCU in several major
areas such as the classifiers and rate estimators. From John
Fastabend.
10) Add driver for Intel FM10000 Ethernet Switch, from Alexander
Duyck.
11) Rearrange TCP_SKB_CB() to reduce cache line misses, from Eric
Dumazet.
12) Add Datacenter TCP congestion control algorithm support, From
Florian Westphal.
13) Reorganize sk_buff so that __copy_skb_header() is significantly
faster. From Eric Dumazet"

Pull ARM64 SoC changes from Arnd Bergmann:
"Starting with 3.18, we are merging SoC-specific changes for arm64
through the arm-soc tree, like we have been doing for arm32.
This time, there is only one set of changes, adding support for the
Cavium "Thunder" Soc family. Since the changes are relatively small,
this includes Kconfig, defconfig and DT changes.
If all goes well, we will never require adding actual C source code
for platform support in arm64, given that the architecture is more
clearly defined and we have moved out a lot of the platform specifics
into device drivers for arm32 already"

Most of the new code is for the Keystone Navigator driver, which is
new base support that is going to be needed for their hardware
accelerated network driver and other units.
Most of the commits are for moving old code around from at91 and omap
for things that are done in device drivers nowadays.
- at91: move reset, poweroff, memory and clocksource code into
drivers directories
- socfpga: add edac driver (through arm-soc, as requested by Boris)
