Marcel reported to see the following message when autoloading
is being triggered when adding nlmon device:
Loading kernel module for a network device with
CAP_SYS_MODULE (deprecated). Use CAP_NET_ADMIN and alias
netdev-nlmon instead.
This false-positive happens despite with having correct
capabilities set, e.g. through issuing `ip link del dev nlmon`
more than once on a valid device with name nlmon, but Marcel
has also seen it on creation time when no nlmon module is
previously compiled-in or loaded as module and the device
name equals a link type name (e.g. nlmon, vxlan, team).
Stephen says:
The netdev module alias is a hold over from the past. For
normal devices, people used to create a alias eth0 to and
point it to the type of network device used, that was back
in the bad old ISA days before real discovery.
Also, the tunnels create module alias for the control device
and ip used to use this to autoload the tunnel device.
The message is bogus and should just be removed, I also see
it in a couple of other cases where tap devices are renamed
for other usese.
As mentioned in 8909c9ad8ff0 ("net: don't allow CAP_NET_ADMIN
to load non-netdev kernel modules"), we nevertheless still
might want to leave the old autoloading behaviour in place
as it could break old scripts, so for now, lets just remove
the log message as Stephen suggests.

net: bpf: make eBPF interpreter images read-only
With eBPF getting more extended and exposure to user space is on it's way,
hardening the memory range the interpreter uses to steer its command flow
seems appropriate. This patch moves the to be interpreted bytecode to
read-only pages.
In case we execute a corrupted BPF interpreter image for some reason e.g.
caused by an attacker which got past a verifier stage, it would not only
provide arbitrary read/write memory access but arbitrary function calls
as well. After setting up the BPF interpreter image, its contents do not
change until destruction time, thus we can setup the image on immutable
made pages in order to mitigate modifications to that code. The idea
is derived from commit 314beb9bcabf ("x86: bpf_jit_comp: secure bpf jit
against spraying attacks").
This is possible because bpf_prog is not part of sk_filter anymore.
After setup bpf_prog cannot be altered during its life-time. This prevents
any modifications to the entire bpf_prog structure (incl. function/JIT
image pointer).
Every eBPF program (including classic BPF that are migrated) have to call
bpf_prog_select_runtime() to select either interpreter or a JIT image
as a last setup step, and they all are being freed via bpf_prog_free(),
including non-JIT. Therefore, we can easily integrate this into the
eBPF life-time, plus since we directly allocate a bpf_prog, we have no
performance penalty.
Tested with seccomp and test_bpf testsuite in JIT/non-JIT mode and manual
inspection of kernel_page_tables. Brad Spengler proposed the same idea
via Twitter during development of this patch.

net: systemport: update UMAC_CMD only when link is detected
When we bring the interface down, phy_stop() will schedule the PHY
state machine to call our link adjustment callback. By the time we do so,
we may have clock gated off the SYSTEMPORT hardware block, and this will
cause bus errors to happen in bcm_sysport_adj_link():
Make sure that we only touch the UMAC_CMD register when there is an
actual link. This is safe to do for two reasons:
- updating the Ethernet MAC registers only make sense when a physical
link is present
- the PHY library state machine first set phydev->link = 0 before
invoking phydev->adjust_link in the PHY_HALTED case

lib/rhashtable: allow user to set the minimum shifts of shrinking
Although rhashtable library allows user to specify a quiet big size
for user's created hash table, the table may be shrunk to a
very small size - HASH_MIN_SIZE(4) after object is removed from
the table at the first time. Subsequently, even if the total amount
of objects saved in the table is quite lower than user's initial
setting in a long time, the hash table size is still dynamically
adjusted by rhashtable_shrink() or rhashtable_expand() each time
object is inserted or removed from the table. However, as
synchronize_rcu() has to be called when table is shrunk or
expanded by the two functions, we should permit user to set the
minimum table size through configuring the minimum number of shifts
according to user specific requirement, avoiding these expensive
actions of shrinking or expanding because of calling synchronize_rcu().

qdisc: validate frames going through the direct_xmit path
In commit 50cbe9ab5f8d ("net: Validate xmit SKBs right when we
pull them out of the qdisc") the validation code was moved out of
dev_hard_start_xmit and into dequeue_skb.
However this overlooked the fact that we do not always enqueue
the skb onto a qdisc. First situation is if qdisc have flag
TCQ_F_CAN_BYPASS and qdisc is empty. Second situation is if
there is no qdisc on the device, which is a common case for
software devices.
Originally spotted and inital patch by Alexander Duyck.
As a result Alex was seeing issues trying to connect to a
vhost_net interface after commit 50cbe9ab5f8d was applied.
Added a call to validate_xmit_skb() in __dev_xmit_skb(), in the
code path for qdiscs with TCQ_F_CAN_BYPASS flag, and in
__dev_queue_xmit() when no qdisc.
Also handle the error situation where dev_hard_start_xmit() could
return a skb list, and does not return dev_xmit_complete(rc) and
falls through to the kfree_skb(), in that situation it should
call kfree_skb_list().

sk->sk_error_queue is dequeued in four locations. All share the
exact same logic. Deduplicate.
Also collapse the two critical sections for dequeue (at the top of
the recv handler) and signal (at the bottom).
This moves signal generation for the next packet forward, which should
be harmless.
It also changes the behavior if the recv handler exits early with an
error. Previously, a signal for follow-up packets on the errqueue
would then not be scheduled. The new behavior, to always signal, is
arguably a bug fix.
For rxrpc, the change causes the same function to be called repeatedly
for each queued packet (because the recv handler == sk_error_report).
It is likely that all packets will fail for the same reason (e.g.,
memory exhaustion).
This code runs without sk_lock held, so it is not safe to trust that
sk->sk_err is immutable inbetween releasing q->lock and the subsequent
test. Introduce int err just to avoid this potential race.

====================
net: Checksum offload changes - Part VI
I am working on overhauling RX checksum offload. Goals of this effort
are:
- Specify what exactly it means when driver returns CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY
- Preserve CHECKSUM_COMPLETE through encapsulation layers
- Don't do skb_checksum more than once per packet
- Unify GRO and non-GRO csum verification as much as possible
- Unify the checksum functions (checksum_init)
- Simplify code
What is in this seventh patch set:
- Add skb->csum. This allows a device or GRO to indicate that an
invalid checksum was detected.
- Checksum unncessary to checksum complete conversions.
With these changes, I believe that the third goal of the overhaul is
now mostly achieved. In the case of no encapsulation or one layer of
encapsulation, there should only be at most one skb_checksum over
each packet (between GRO and normal path). In the case of two layers
of encapsulation, it is still possible with the right combination of
non-zero and zero UDP checksums to have >1 skb_checksum. For instance:
IP>GRE(with csum)>IP>UDP(zero csum)>VXLAN>IP>UDP(non-zero csum),
would likely necessiate an skb_checksum in GRO and normal path.
This doesn't seem like a common scenario at all so I'm inclined to
not address this now, if multiple layers of encapsulation becomes
popular we can reassess.
Note that checksum conversion shows a nice improvement for RX VXLAN when
outer UDP checksum is enabled (12.65% CPU compared to 20.94%). This
is not only from the fact that we don't need checksum calculation on
the host, but also allows GRO for VXLAN in this case. Checksum
conversion does not help send side (which still needs to perform
a checksum on host). For that we will implement remote checksum offload
in a later patch
(http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-herbert-remotecsumoffload-00).
Please review carefully and test if possible, mucking with basic
checksum functions is always a little precarious :-)

Checksums can be marked bad from a driver or the GRO path (the latter

csum_bad works in conjunction with ip_summed value. In the case that

first (or next) checksum encountered in the packet is bad. When
ip_summed is CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY, the first checksum after the last

__skb_decr_checksum_unnecessary called twice for the good checksums

tipc: add name distributor resiliency queue
TIPC name table updates are distributed asynchronously in a cluster,
entailing a risk of certain race conditions. E.g., if two nodes
simultaneously issue conflicting (overlapping) publications, this may
not be detected until both publications have reached a third node, in
which case one of the publications will be silently dropped on that
node. Hence, we end up with an inconsistent name table.
In most cases this conflict is just a temporary race, e.g., one
node is issuing a publication under the assumption that a previous,
conflicting, publication has already been withdrawn by the other node.
However, because of the (rtt related) distributed update delay, this
may not yet hold true on all nodes. The symptom of this failure is a
syslog message: "tipc: Cannot publish {%u,%u,%u}, overlap error".
In this commit we add a resiliency queue at the receiving end of
the name table distributor. When insertion of an arriving publication
fails, we retain it in this queue for a short amount of time, assuming
that another update will arrive very soon and clear the conflict. If so
happens, we insert the publication, otherwise we drop it.
The (configurable) retention value defaults to 2000 ms. Knowing from

David Miller says:
====================
net: Make dev_hard_start_xmit() work fundamentally on lists
After this patch set, dev_hard_start_xmit() will work fundemantally on
any and all SKB lists.
This opens the path for a clean implementation of pulling multiple
packets out during qdisc_restart(), and then passing that blob in one
shot to dev_hard_start_xmit().
There were two main architectural blockers to this:
1) The GSO handling, we kept the original GSO head SKB around simply
because dev_hard_start_xmit() had no way to communicate to the
caller how far into the segmented list it was able to go. Now it
can, so the head GSO can be liberated immediately.
All of the special GSO head SKB destructor et al. handling goes
away too.
2) Validate of VLAN, CSUM, and segmentation characteristics was being
performed inside of dev_hard_start_xmit(). If want to truly batch,
we have to let the higher levels to this. In particular, this is
now dequeue_skb()'s job.
And with those two issues out of the way, it should now be trivial to
build experiments on top of this patch set, all of the framework
should be there now. You could do something as simple as:
skb = q->dequeue(q);
if (skb)
skb = validate_xmit_skb(skb, qdisc_dev(q));
if (skb) {
struct sk_buff *new, *head = skb;
int limit = 5;
do {
new = q->dequeue(q);
if (new)
new = validate_xmit_skb(new, qdisc_dev(q));
if (new) {
skb->next = new;
skb = new;
}
} while (new && --limit);
skb = head;
}
inside of the else branch of dequeue_skb().

There is a slight policy change happening here as well.
The previous code would drop the entire rest of the GSO skb if any of
them got, for example, a congestion notification.
That makes no sense, anything NET_XMIT_MASK and below is something
like congestion or policing. And in the congestion case it doesn't
even mean the packet was actually dropped.
Just continue until dev_xmit_complete() evaluates to false.

====================
net: Checksum offload changes - Part VI
I am working on overhauling RX checksum offload. Goals of this effort
are:
- Specify what exactly it means when driver returns CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY
- Preserve CHECKSUM_COMPLETE through encapsulation layers
- Don't do skb_checksum more than once per packet
- Unify GRO and non-GRO csum verification as much as possible
- Unify the checksum functions (checksum_init)
- Simplify code
What is in this sixth patch set:
- Clarify the specific requirements of devices returning
CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY (comments in skbuff.h).
- Add csum_level field to skbuff. This is used to express how
many checksums are covered by CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY (stores n - 1).
- Change __skb_checksum_validate_needed to "consume" each checksum
as indicated by csum_level as layers of the the packet are parsed.
- Remove skb_pop_rcv_encapsulation, no longer needed in the new
csum_level model.
- Allow GRO path to "consume" checksums provided in CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY
and to report new verfied checksums for use in normal path fallback.
- Add proper support to SCTP to accept CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY to validate
header CRC.
- Modify drivers to set skb->csum_level instead of setting
skb->encapsulation to indicate validation of an encapsulated
checksum on receive.
v2:
Allocate a new 16 bits for flags in skbuff.
Please review carefully and test if possible, mucking with basic
checksum functions is always a little precarious :-)

Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2014-08-27
This series contains updates to i40e and i40evf.
Carolyn provides two patches, first changes the wording of the flow
director add/remove and asynchronous failure messages to include the
fd_id to try and add some way to track the operations on a given fd_id.
Second adds a check during handle_link_event for unqualified modules
when link is down and there is a module plugged in.
Anjali provides four patches to i40e/i40evf. First update flow director
messages so that a user can tell if a filter was added or deleted. Then
updates the ATR policy to not auto-disable ATR when we have errors in
programming. The disabling of ATR when we got programming errors was
buggy and was still adding new rules and causing continuous errors.
With this policy change, we flush instead when we see too many errors.
In addition she adds a flow director flush counter to ethtool to help
know how many times the interface had to flush and replay the flow
director filter table. Updates the driver to ignores a driver
perceived transmit hang if the number of descriptors pending is less
than 4, and instead log a stat when this situation happens. This is
because the queue progresses forward and the stack never experiences
a real hang in these situations.
Shannon provides three patches for i40e/i40evf, first enables the
l2tsel bit on receive queue contexts that are assigned to VFs so that
the VF can get the stripped VLAN tag. Then adds a max buffer size
parameter to the print helper to be sure the code knows when to stop.
Lastly, remove the complaint when removing the default MAC VLAN filter.
This was because old firmware had an incorrect MAC VLAN filter that
needed to be replaced at startup, and now newer firmware does not have
this problem. So now we only add the new filter if the removal
succeeded and no need to complain if the removal fails.
Ashish provides a change to vsi->num_queue_pairs to equal the number
that is configured by the VF. This limits the number of queues that
are enabled/disabled and fixes the mismatch case for when a VF
configures fewer queues than is allocated to it by the PF.
