There is a race in Linux kernel file net/core/dev.c, function dev_close.
The function calls function dev_deactivate, which calls function
dev_watchdog_down that deletes the watchdog timer. However, after that, a
driver can call netif_carrier_ok, which calls function
__netdev_watchdog_up that can add the watchdog timer again. Function
unregister_netdevice calls function dev_shutdown that traps the bug
!timer_pending(&dev->watchdog_timer). Moving dev_deactivate after
netif_running() has been cleared prevents function netif_carrier_on
from calling __netdev_watchdog_up and adding the watchdog timer again.

In do_setlink() a single notification is sent at the end of the
function if any modification occured. If the address has been changed,
another notification is sent.
Both of them is required because originally only the NETDEV_CHANGEADDR
notification was sent and although device state change implies address
change, some programs may expect the original notification. It remains
for compatibity.
If set_operstate() is called from do_setlink(), it doesn't send a
notification, only if it is called from rtnl_create_link() as earlier.

Frank Blaschka provided the bug report and the initial suggested fix
for this bug. He also validated this version of this fix.
The problem is that the access to neigh->arp_queue is inconsistent, we
grab references when dropping the lock lock to call
neigh->ops->solicit() but this does not prevent other threads of
control from trying to send out that packet at the same time causing
corruptions because both code paths believe they have exclusive access
to the skb.
The best option seems to be to hold the write lock on neigh->lock
during the ->solicit() call. I looked at all of the ndisc_ops
implementations and this seems workable. The only case that needs
special care is the IPV4 ARP implementation of arp_solicit(). It
wants to take neigh->lock as a reader to protect the header entry in
neigh->ha during the emission of the soliciation. We can simply
remove the read lock calls to take care of that since holding the lock
as a writer at the caller providers a superset of the protection
afforded by the existing read locking.
The rest of the ->solicit() implementations don't care whether the
neigh is locked or not.

We use a percpu variable named flow_hash_info, which holds 12 bytes.
It is currently marked as ____cacheline_aligned, which makes linker

Before :

c065cd00 d per_cpu__flow_tables

c065ce00 d per_cpu__flow_flush_tasklets
c065ce14 d per_cpu__rt_cache_stat
This alignement is quite unproductive, and removing it reduces the

This patch introduces new memory accounting functions for each network
protocol. Most of them are renamed from memory accounting functions
for stream protocols. At the same time, some stream memory accounting
functions are removed since other functions do same thing.
Renaming:
sk_stream_free_skb() -> sk_wmem_free_skb()
__sk_stream_mem_reclaim() -> __sk_mem_reclaim()
sk_stream_mem_reclaim() -> sk_mem_reclaim()
sk_stream_mem_schedule -> __sk_mem_schedule()
sk_stream_pages() -> sk_mem_pages()
sk_stream_rmem_schedule() -> sk_rmem_schedule()
sk_stream_wmem_schedule() -> sk_wmem_schedule()
sk_charge_skb() -> sk_mem_charge()
Removeing
sk_stream_rfree(): consolidates into sock_rfree()
sk_stream_set_owner_r(): consolidates into skb_set_owner_r()
sk_stream_mem_schedule()
The following functions are added.
sk_has_account(): check if the protocol supports accounting
sk_mem_uncharge(): do the opposite of sk_mem_charge()
In addition, to achieve consolidation, updating sk_wmem_queued is
removed from sk_mem_charge().
Next, to consolidate memory accounting functions, this patch adds
memory accounting calls to network core functions. Moreover, present
memory accounting call is renamed to new accounting call.
Finally we replace present memory accounting calls with new interface
in TCP and SCTP.

I'm actually surprised at how much was involved. At first glance it
appears that the neighbour table data structures are already split by
network device so all that should be needed is to modify the user
interface commands to filter the set of neighbours by the network
namespace of their devices.
However a couple things turned up while I was reading through the
code. The proxy neighbour table allows entries with no network
device, and the neighbour parms are per network device (except for the
defaults) so they now need a per network namespace default.
So I updated the two structures (which surprised me) with their very
own network namespace parameter. Updated the relevant lookup and
destroy routines with a network namespace parameter and modified the
code that interacts with users to filter out neighbour table entries
for devices of other namespaces.
I'm a little concerned that we can modify and display the global table
configuration and from all network namespaces. But this appears good
enough for now.
I keep thinking modifying the neighbour table to have per network
namespace instances of each table type would should be cleaner. The
hash table is already dynamically sized so there are it is not a
limiter. The default parameter would be straight forward to take care
of. However when I look at the how the network table is built and
used I still find some assumptions that there is only a single
neighbour table for each type of table in the kernel. The netlink
operations, neigh_seq_start, the non-core network users that call
neigh_lookup. So while it might be doable it would require more
refactoring than my current approach of just doing a little extra
filtering in the code.

The previous move of the the UDP inDatagrams counter caused each
peek of the same packet to be counted separately. This may be
undesirable.
This patch fixes this by adding a bit to sk_buff to record whether
this packet has already been seen through skb_recv_datagram. We
then only increment the counter when the packet is seen for the
first time.
The only dodgy part is the fact that skb_recv_datagram doesn't have
a good way of returning this new bit of information. So I've added
a new function __skb_recv_datagram that does return this and made
skb_recv_datagram a wrapper around it.
The plan is to eventually replace all uses of skb_recv_datagram with
this new function at which time it can be renamed its proper name.

The appropriate path is prepared right inside this function. It
is prepared similar to how the ctl tables were.
Since the path is modified, it is put on the stack, to avoid
possible races with multiple calls to neigh_sysctl_register() : it
is called by protocols and I didn't find any protection in this
case. Did I overlooked the rtnl lock?.
The stack growth of the neigh_sysctl_register() is 40 bytes. I
believe this is OK, since this is not that much and this function
is not called with the deep stack (device/protocols register).
The device's name is stored on the template to free it later.
This will help with the net namespaces, as each namespace should
have its own set of these ctls.
Besides, this saves ~350 bytes from the neigh template :)

After the previous prep work this just consists of removing checks

updating rtmsg_ifinfo so we can generate events for devices in
something other then the initial network namespace.
Referring to network other network devices like the IFLA_LINK

devices happen to be in other network namespaces. Currently
ifindex numbers are allocated globally so I have taken the path
of least resistance and not still report the information even

This patch deletes all of them except dst_discard and points all the
users to it.
The only non-trivial bit is decnet where it returns an error.
However, conceptually this is identical to the blackhole functions
used in IPv4 and IPv6 which do not return errors. So they should
either all return errors or all return zero. For now I've stuck with
the majority and picked zero as the return value.

When unregistering the rtnl_link_ops, all existing devices using
the ops are destroyed. With nested devices this may lead to a
use-after-free despite the use of for_each_netdev_safe() in case
the upper device is next in the device list and is destroyed
by the NETDEV_UNREGISTER notifier.
The easy fix is to restart scanning the device list after removing
a device. Alternatively we could add new devices to the front of
the list to avoid having dependant devices follow the device they
depend on. A third option would be to only restart scanning if
dev->iflink of the next device matches dev->ifindex of the current
one. For now this seems like the safest solution.
With this patch, the veth rtnl_link_ops unregistration can use
rtnl_link_unregister() directly since it now also handles destruction
of multiple devices at once.

The neightbl_fill_parms() is called under the write-locked tbl->lock
and accesses the parms->dev. The negh_parm_release() calls the
dev_put(parms->dev) without this lock. This creates a tiny race window
on which the parms contains potentially stale dev pointer.
To fix this race it's enough to move the dev_put() upper under the
tbl->lock, but note, that the parms are held by neighbors and thus can
live after the neigh_parms_release() is called, so we still can have a
parm with bad dev pointer.
I didn't find where the neigh->parms->dev is accessed, but still think
that putting the dev is to be done in a place, where the parms are
really freed. Am I right with that?

Both NetLabel and SELinux (other LSMs may grow to use it as well) rely

preserved across a skb clone operation which can lead to garbage
values if the cloned skb is sent back through the network stack. This
patch corrects this problem by properly copying the 'iif' field in

The request_sock_queue's listen_opt is either vmalloc-ed or
kmalloc-ed depending on the number of table entries. Thus it
is expected to be handled properly on free, which is done in
the reqsk_queue_destroy().
However the error path in inet_csk_listen_start() calls
the lite version of reqsk_queue_destroy, called
__reqsk_queue_destroy, which calls the kfree unconditionally.
Fix this and move the __reqsk_queue_destroy into a .c file as
it looks too big to be inline.
As David also noticed, this is an error recovery path only,
so no locking is required and the lopt is known to be not NULL.

handles this error this can abort the module loading. The
notifier block will be then removed from the kernel, but

"struct proto" currently uses an array stats[NR_CPUS] to track change on
'inuse' sockets per protocol.
If NR_CPUS is big, this means we use a big memory area for this.
Moreover, all this memory area is located on a single node on NUMA
machines, increasing memory pressure on the boot node.
In this patch, I tried to :
- Keep a fast !CONFIG_SMP implementation
- Keep a fast CONFIG_SMP implementation for often used protocols
(tcp,udp,raw,...)
- Introduce a NUMA efficient implementation
Some helper macros are defined in include/net/sock.h
These macros take into account CONFIG_SMP
If a "struct proto" is declared without using DEFINE_PROTO_INUSE /
REF_PROTO_INUSE
macros, it will automatically use a default implementation, using a
dynamically allocated percpu zone.
This default implementation will be NUMA efficient, but might use 32/64
bytes per possible cpu
because of current alloc_percpu() implementation.
However it still should be better than previous implementation based on
stats[NR_CPUS] field.
When a "struct proto" is changed to use the new macros, we use a single
static "int" percpu variable,
lowering the memory and cpu costs, still preserving NUMA efficiency.

This fixes scatterlist corruptions added by
commit 68e3f5dd4d
[CRYPTO] users: Fix up scatterlist conversion errors
The issue is that the code calls sg_mark_end() which clobbers the
sg_page() pointer of the final scatterlist entry.
The first part fo the fix makes skb_to_sgvec() do __sg_mark_end().
After considering all skb_to_sgvec() call sites the most correct
solution is to call __sg_mark_end() in skb_to_sgvec() since that is
what all of the callers would end up doing anyways.
I suspect this might have fixed some problems in virtio_net which is
the sole non-crypto user of skb_to_sgvec().
Other similar sg_mark_end() cases were converted over to
__sg_mark_end() as well.
Arguably sg_mark_end() is a poorly named function because it doesn't
just "mark", it clears out the page pointer as a side effect, which is
what led to these bugs in the first place.
The one remaining plain sg_mark_end() call is in scsi_alloc_sgtable()
and arguably it could be converted to __sg_mark_end() if only so that
we can delete this confusing interface from linux/scatterlist.h

When a network namespace reference is held by a network subsystem,
and when this reference is decremented in a rcu update callback, we
must ensure that there is no more outstanding rcu update before
trying to free the network namespace.
In the normal case, the rcu_barrier is called when the network namespace
is exiting in the cleanup_net function.
But when a network namespace creation fails, and the subsystems are
undone (like the cleanup), the rcu_barrier is missing.
This patch adds the missing rcu_barrier.

Point 1:
The unregistering of a network device schedule a netdev_run_todo.
This function calls dev->destructor when it is set and the
destructor calls free_netdev.
Point 2:
In the case of an initialization of a network device the usual code
is:
* alloc_netdev
* register_netdev
-> if this one fails, call free_netdev and exit with error.
Point 3:
In the register_netdevice function at the later state, when the device
is at the registered state, a call to the netdevice_notifiers is made.
If one of the notification falls into an error, a rollback to the
registered state is done using unregister_netdevice.
Conclusion:
When a network device fails to register during initialization because
one network subsystem returned an error during a notification call
chain, the network device is freed twice because of fact 1 and fact 2.
The second free_netdev will be done with an invalid pointer.
Proposed solution:
The following patch move all the code of unregister_netdevice *except*
the call to net_set_todo, to a new function "rollback_registered".
The following functions are changed in this way:
* register_netdevice: calls rollback_registered when a notification fails
* unregister_netdevice: calls rollback_register + net_set_todo, the call
order to net_set_todo is changed because it is the
latest now. Since it justs add an element to a list
that should not break anything.

The pid namespace patches changed the semantics of
find_task_by_pid without breaking the compile resulting
in get_net_ns_by_pid doing the wrong thing.
So switch to using the intended find_task_by_vpid.
Combined with Denis' earlier patch to make netlink traffic
fully synchronous the inadvertent race I introduced with
accessing current is actually removed.

It is not safe to to place struct pernet_operations in a special section.
We need struct pernet_operations to last until we call unregister_pernet_subsys.
Which doesn't happen until module unload.
So marking struct pernet_operations is a disaster for modules in two ways.
- We discard it before we call the exit method it points to.
- Because I keep struct pernet_operations on a linked list discarding
it for compiled in code removes elements in the middle of a linked
list and does horrible things for linked insert.
So this looks safe assuming __exit_refok is not discarded
for modules.

Most drivers need to set length and offset as well, so may as well fold

The task_struct->pid member is going to be deprecated, so start
using the helpers (task_pid_nr/task_pid_vnr/task_pid_nr_ns) in
the kernel.
The first thing to start with is the pid, printed to dmesg - in
this case we may safely use task_pid_nr(). Besides, printks produce
more (much more) than a half of all the explicit pid usage.

This is the largest patch in the set. Make all (I hope) the places where
the pid is shown to or get from user operate on the virtual pids.
The idea is:
- all in-kernel data structures must store either struct pid itself
or the pid's global nr, obtained with pid_nr() call;
- when seeking the task from kernel code with the stored id one
should use find_task_by_pid() call that works with global pids;
- when showing pid's numerical value to the user the virtual one
should be used, but however when one shows task's pid outside this
task's namespace the global one is to be used;
- when getting the pid from userspace one need to consider this as
the virtual one and use appropriate task/pid-searching functions.
