Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates
This series contains updates to ixgbe and e1000e.
Jacob provides a ixgbe patch to fix the configure_rx patch to properly
disable RSC hardware logic when a user disables it. Previously we only
disabled RSC in the queue settings, but this does not fully disable
hardware RSC logic which can lead to unexpected performance issues.
Emil provides three fixes for ixgbe. First fixes the ethtool loopback
test when DCB is enabled, where the frames may be modified on Tx
(by adding VLAN tag) which will fail the check on receive. Then a fix
for QSFP+ modules, limit the speed setting to advertise only one speed
at a time since the QSFP+ modules do not support auto negotiation.
Lastly, resolve an issue where the driver will display incorrect info
for QSFP+ modules that were inserted after the driver has been loaded.
David Ertman provides to fixes for e1000e, one removes a comparison to
the boolean value true where evaluating the lvalue will produce the
same result. The other fixes an error in the calculation of the
rar_entry_count, which causes a write of unkown/undefined register
space in the MAC to unknown/undefined register space in the PHY.

When copying the MAC RAR registers to PHY there is an error in the
calculation of the rar_entry_count, which causes a write of unknown/
undefined register space in the MAC to unknown/undefined register space in
the PHY.
This patch fixes the overrun with writing to the PHY RAR and also fixes the
ethtool offline register tests so that the correctly addressed registers
have the appropriate bitmasks for R/W and RO bits for affected parts.
Shawn Rader gets credit for finding and fixing the register overrun.

QSFP+ modules do not support auto negotiation and should advertise only
one speed at a time.
This patch adds logic in ethtool to allow setting and reporting the
advertised speed at either 1Gbps or 10Gbps, but not both. Also limits
the speed set in ixgbe_sfp_link_config_subtask() to highest supported.
Previously the link was set to whatever the supported speeds were.

At some point limits were added to forward_delay. However, the
limits are only enforced when STP is enabled. This created a
scenario where you could have a value outside the allowed range
while STP is disabled, which then stuck around even after STP
is enabled.
This patch fixes this by clamping the value when we enable STP.
I had to move the locking around a bit to ensure that there is
no window where someone could insert a value outside the range
while we're in the middle of enabling STP.

This changes the message_age_timer calculation to use the BPDU's max age as
opposed to the local bridge's max age. This is in accordance with section
8.6.2.3.2 Step 2 of the 802.1D-1998 sprecification.
With the current implementation, when running with very large bridge
diameters, convergance will not always occur even if a root bridge is
configured to have a longer max age.
Tested successfully on bridge diameters of ~200.

When a VM is providing an iSCSI target and the LUN is used by the
backend domain, the generated skbs for direct I/O writes to the disk
have large, multi-page skb->data but no frags.
With some lengths and starting offsets, xen_netbk_count_skb_slots()
would be one short because the simple calculation of
DIV_ROUND_UP(skb_headlen(), PAGE_SIZE) was not accounting for the
decisions made by start_new_rx_buffer() which does not guarantee
responses are fully packed.
For example, a skb with length < 2 pages but which spans 3 pages would
be counted as requiring 2 slots but would actually use 3 slots.
skb->data:
| 1111|222222222222|3333 |
Fully packed, this would need 2 slots:
|111122222222|22223333 |
But because the 2nd page wholy fits into a slot it is not split across
slots and goes into a slot of its own:
|1111 |222222222222|3333 |
Miscounting the number of slots means netback may push more responses
than the number of available requests. This will cause the frontend
to get very confused and report "Too many frags/slots". The frontend
never recovers and will eventually BUG.
Fix this by counting the number of required slots more carefully. In
xen_netbk_count_skb_slots(), more closely follow the algorithm used by
xen_netbk_gop_skb() by introducing xen_netbk_count_frag_slots() which
is the dry-run equivalent of netbk_gop_frag_copy().

Alan Chester reported an issue with IPv6 on SCTP that IPsec traffic is not
being encrypted, whereas on IPv4 it is. Setting up an AH + ESP transport
does not seem to have the desired effect:
SCTP + IPv4:
22:14:20.809645 IP (tos 0x2,ECT(0), ttl 64, id 0, offset 0, flags [DF], proto AH (51), length 116)
192.168.0.2 > 192.168.0.5: AH(spi=0x00000042,sumlen=16,seq=0x1): ESP(spi=0x00000044,seq=0x1), length 72
22:14:20.813270 IP (tos 0x2,ECT(0), ttl 64, id 0, offset 0, flags [DF], proto AH (51), length 340)
192.168.0.5 > 192.168.0.2: AH(spi=0x00000043,sumlen=16,seq=0x1):
SCTP + IPv6:
22:31:19.215029 IP6 (class 0x02, hlim 64, next-header SCTP (132) payload length: 364)
fe80::222:15ff:fe87:7fc.3333 > fe80::92e6:baff:fe0d:5a54.36767: sctp
1) [INIT ACK] [init tag: 747759530] [rwnd: 62464] [OS: 10] [MIS: 10]
Moreover, Alan says:
This problem was seen with both Racoon and Racoon2. Other people have seen
this with OpenSwan. When IPsec is configured to encrypt all upper layer
protocols the SCTP connection does not initialize. After using Wireshark to
follow packets, this is because the SCTP packet leaves Box A unencrypted and
Box B believes all upper layer protocols are to be encrypted so it drops
this packet, causing the SCTP connection to fail to initialize. When IPsec
is configured to encrypt just SCTP, the SCTP packets are observed unencrypted.
In fact, using `socat sctp6-listen:3333 -` on one end and transferring "plaintext"
string on the other end, results in cleartext on the wire where SCTP eventually
does not report any errors, thus in the latter case that Alan reports, the
non-paranoid user might think he's communicating over an encrypted transport on
SCTP although he's not (tcpdump ... -X):
...
0x0030: 5d70 8e1a 0003 001a 177d eb6c 0000 0000 ]p.......}.l....
0x0040: 0000 0000 706c 6169 6e74 6578 740a 0000 ....plaintext...
Only in /proc/net/xfrm_stat we can see XfrmInTmplMismatch increasing on the
receiver side. Initial follow-up analysis from Alan's bug report was done by
Alexey Dobriyan. Also thanks to Vlad Yasevich for feedback on this.
SCTP has its own implementation of sctp_v6_xmit() not calling inet6_csk_xmit().
This has the implication that it probably never really got updated along with
changes in inet6_csk_xmit() and therefore does not seem to invoke xfrm handlers.
SCTP's IPv4 xmit however, properly calls ip_queue_xmit() to do the work. Since
a call to inet6_csk_xmit() would solve this problem, but result in unecessary
route lookups, let us just use the cached flowi6 instead that we got through
sctp_v6_get_dst(). Since all SCTP packets are being sent through sctp_packet_transmit(),
we do the route lookup / flow caching in sctp_transport_route(), hold it in
tp->dst and skb_dst_set() right after that. If we would alter fl6->daddr in
sctp_v6_xmit() to np->opt->srcrt, we possibly could run into the same effect
of not having xfrm layer pick it up, hence, use fl6_update_dst() in sctp_v6_get_dst()
instead to get the correct source routed dst entry, which we assign to the skb.
Also source address routing example from 625034113 ("sctp: fix sctp to work with
ipv6 source address routing") still works with this patch! Nevertheless, in RFC5095
it is actually 'recommended' to not use that anyway due to traffic amplification [1].
So it seems we're not supposed to do that anyway in sctp_v6_xmit(). Moreover, if
we overwrite the flow destination here, the lower IPv6 layer will be unable to
put the correct destination address into IP header, as routing header is added in
ipv6_push_nfrag_opts() but then probably with wrong final destination. Things aside,
result of this patch is that we do not have any XfrmInTmplMismatch increase plus on
the wire with this patch it now looks like:
SCTP + IPv6:
08:17:47.074080 IP6 2620:52:0:102f:7a2b:cbff:fe27:1b0a > 2620:52:0:102f:213:72ff:fe32:7eba:
AH(spi=0x00005fb4,seq=0x1): ESP(spi=0x00005fb5,seq=0x1), length 72
08:17:47.074264 IP6 2620:52:0:102f:213:72ff:fe32:7eba > 2620:52:0:102f:7a2b:cbff:fe27:1b0a:
AH(spi=0x00003d54,seq=0x1): ESP(spi=0x00003d55,seq=0x1), length 296
This fixes Kernel Bugzilla 24412. This security issue seems to be present since
2.6.18 kernels. Lets just hope some big passive adversary in the wild didn't have
its fun with that. lksctp-tools IPv6 regression test suite passes as well with
this patch.

When !CONFIG_MMU there's a chance we can derefence a NULL pointer when the
VM area isn't found - check the return value of find_vma().
Also, remove the redundant -EINVAL return: retval is set to the proper
return code and *only* changed to 0, when we actually unmap the segments.

As suggested by Andrew, add a generic initial locking scheme used
throughout all sysv ipc mechanisms. Documenting the ids rwsem, how rcu
can be enough to do the initial checks and when to actually acquire the
kern_ipc_perm.lock spinlock.
I found that adding it to util.c was generic enough.

With the *_INFO, *_STAT, IPC_RMID and IPC_SET commands already optimized,

shm_perm lock after doing the initial auditing and security checks. The
rest of the logic remains unchanged.

Similar to semctl and msgctl, when calling msgctl, the *_INFO and *_STAT
commands can be performed without acquiring the ipc object.
Add a shmctl_nolock() function and move the logic of *_INFO and *_STAT out
of msgctl(). Since we are just moving functionality, this change still
takes the lock and it will be properly lockless in the next patch.

This is the third and final patchset that deals with reducing the amount
of contention we impose on the ipc lock (kern_ipc_perm.lock). These
changes mostly deal with shared memory, previous work has already been
done for semaphores and message queues:
http://lkml.org/lkml/2013/3/20/546 (sems)
http://lkml.org/lkml/2013/5/15/584 (mqueues)
With these patches applied, a custom shm microbenchmark stressing shmctl
doing IPC_STAT with 4 threads a million times, reduces the execution
time by 50%. A similar run, this time with IPC_SET, reduces the
execution time from 3 mins and 35 secs to 27 seconds.
Patches 1-8: replaces blindly taking the ipc lock for a smarter
combination of rcu and ipc_obtain_object, only acquiring the spinlock
when updating.
Patch 9: renames the ids rw_mutex to rwsem, which is what it already was.
Patch 10: is a trivial mqueue leftover cleanup
Patch 11: adds a brief lock scheme description, requested by Andrew.
This patch:
Add shm_obtain_object() and shm_obtain_object_check(), which will allow us
to get the ipc object without acquiring the lock. Just as with other
forms of ipc, these functions are basically wrappers around
ipc_obtain_object*().
