Commit dc82a33297 ("veth: apply qdisc backpressure on full ptr_ring to
reduce TX drops") introduced a race condition that can lead to a permanently
stalled TXQ. This was observed in production on ARM64 systems (Ampere Altra
Max).
The race occurs in veth_xmit(). The producer observes a full ptr_ring and
stops the queue (netif_tx_stop_queue()). The subsequent conditional logic,
intended to re-wake the queue if the consumer had just emptied it (if
(__ptr_ring_empty(...)) netif_tx_wake_queue()), can fail. This leads to a
"lost wakeup" where the TXQ remains stopped (QUEUE_STATE_DRV_XOFF) and
traffic halts.
This failure is caused by an incorrect use of the __ptr_ring_empty() API
from the producer side. As noted in kernel comments, this check is not
guaranteed to be correct if a consumer is operating on another CPU. The
empty test is based on ptr_ring->consumer_head, making it reliable only for
the consumer. Using this check from the producer side is fundamentally racy.
This patch fixes the race by adopting the more robust logic from an earlier
version V4 of the patchset, which always flushed the peer:
(1) In veth_xmit(), the racy conditional wake-up logic and its memory barrier
are removed. Instead, after stopping the queue, we unconditionally call
__veth_xdp_flush(rq). This guarantees that the NAPI consumer is scheduled,
making it solely responsible for re-waking the TXQ.
This handles the race where veth_poll() consumes all packets and completes
NAPI *before* veth_xmit() on the producer side has called netif_tx_stop_queue.
The __veth_xdp_flush(rq) will observe rx_notify_masked is false and schedule
NAPI.
(2) On the consumer side, the logic for waking the peer TXQ is moved out of
veth_xdp_rcv() and placed at the end of the veth_poll() function. This
placement is part of fixing the race, as the netif_tx_queue_stopped() check
must occur after rx_notify_masked is potentially set to false during NAPI
completion.
This handles the race where veth_poll() consumes all packets, but haven't
finished (rx_notify_masked is still true). The producer veth_xmit() stops the
TXQ and __veth_xdp_flush(rq) will observe rx_notify_masked is true, meaning
not starting NAPI. Then veth_poll() change rx_notify_masked to false and
stops NAPI. Before exiting veth_poll() will observe TXQ is stopped and wake
it up.

The validation of the set(nsh(...)) action is completely wrong.
It runs through the nsh_key_put_from_nlattr() function that is the
same function that validates NSH keys for the flow match and the
push_nsh() action. However, the set(nsh(...)) has a very different
memory layout. Nested attributes in there are doubled in size in
case of the masked set(). That makes proper validation impossible.
There is also confusion in the code between the 'masked' flag, that
says that the nested attributes are doubled in size containing both
the value and the mask, and the 'is_mask' that says that the value
we're parsing is the mask. This is causing kernel crash on trying to
write into mask part of the match with SW_FLOW_KEY_PUT() during
validation, while validate_nsh() doesn't allocate any memory for it:

The third issue with this process is that while trying to convert
the non-masked set into masked one, validate_set() copies and doubles
the size of the OVS_KEY_ATTR_NSH as if it didn't have any nested
attributes. It should be copying each nested attribute and doubling
them in size independently. And the process must be properly reversed
during the conversion back from masked to a non-masked variant during
the flow dump.
In the end, the only two outcomes of trying to use this action are
either validation failure or a kernel crash. And if somehow someone
manages to install a flow with such an action, it will most definitely
not do what it is supposed to, since all the keys and the masks are
mixed up.
Fixing all the issues is a complex task as it requires re-writing
most of the validation code.
Given that and the fact that this functionality never worked since
introduction, let's just remove it altogether. It's better to
re-introduce it later with a proper implementation instead of trying
to fix it in stable releases.

====================
hsr: Send correct HSRv0 supervision frames
Hangbin recently reported that the hsr selftests were failing and noted
that the entries in the node table were not merged, i.e., had
00:00:00:00:00:00 as MacAddressB forever [1].
This failure only occured with HSRv0 because it was not sending
supervision frames anymore. While debugging this I found that we were
not really following the HSRv0 standard for the supervision frames we
sent, so I additionally made a few changes to get closer to the standard
and restore a more correct behavior we had a while ago.
The selftests can still fail because they take a while and run into the
timeout. I did not include a change of the timeout because I have more
improvements to the selftests mostly ready that change the test duration
but are net-next material.

For HSRv0, the path_id has the following meaning:
- 0000: PRP supervision frame
- 0001-1001: HSR ring identifier
- 1010-1011: Frames from PRP network (A/B, with RedBoxes)
- 1111: HSR supervision frame
Follow the IEC 62439-3:2010 standard more closely by setting the right
path_id for HSRv0 supervision frames (actually, it is correctly set when
the frame is constructed, but hsr_set_path_id() overwrites it) and set a
fixed HSR ring identifier of 1. The ring identifier seems to be generally
unused and we ignore it anyways on reception, but some fixed identifier is
definitely better than using one identifier in one direction and a wrong
identifier in the other.
This was also the behavior before commit f266a683a4 ("net/hsr: Better
frame dispatch") which introduced the alternating path_id. This was later
moved to hsr_set_path_id() in commit 451d8123f8 ("net: prp: add packet
handling support").
The IEC 62439-3:2010 also contains 6 unused bytes after the MacAddressA in
the HSRv0 supervision frames. Adjust a TODO comment accordingly.

On HSRv0, no supervision frames were sent. The supervison frames were
generated successfully, but failed the check for a sufficiently long mac
header, i.e., at least sizeof(struct hsr_ethhdr), in hsr_fill_frame_info()
because the mac header only contained the ethernet header.
Fix this by including the HSR header in the mac header when generating HSR
supervision frames. Note that the mac header now also includes the TLV
fields. This matches how we set the headers on rx and also the size of
struct hsrv0_ethhdr_sp.

their value may be overwritten in the XDP case. However, the flags
recorded under big mode are incorrect, because in big mode, the passed

For the small mode, the commit c11a49d58a ("virtio_net: Fix mismatched

The sit driver's packet transmission path calls: sit_tunnel_xmit() ->
update_or_create_fnhe(), which lead to fnhe_remove_oldest() being called
to delete entries exceeding FNHE_RECLAIM_DEPTH+random.
The race window is between fnhe_remove_oldest() selecting fnheX for
deletion and the subsequent kfree_rcu(). During this time, the
concurrent path's __mkroute_output() -> find_exception() can fetch the
soon-to-be-deleted fnheX, and rt_bind_exception() then binds it with a
new dst using a dst_hold(). When the original fnheX is freed via RCU,
the dst reference remains permanently leaked.
CPU 0 CPU 1
__mkroute_output()
find_exception() [fnheX]
update_or_create_fnhe()
fnhe_remove_oldest() [fnheX]
rt_bind_exception() [bind dst]
RCU callback [fnheX freed, dst leak]
This issue manifests as a device reference count leak and a warning in
dmesg when unregistering the net device:
unregister_netdevice: waiting for sitX to become free. Usage count = N
Ido Schimmel provided the simple test validation method [1].
The fix clears 'oldest->fnhe_daddr' before calling fnhe_flush_routes().
Since rt_bind_exception() checks this field, setting it to zero prevents
the stale fnhe from being reused and bound to a new dst just before it
is freed.

One of the factors of a link's grade is the channel load, which is
calculated from the AP's bss load element.
The current code takes this element from the beacon for an active link,
and from bss->ies for an inactive link.
bss->ies is set to either the beacon's ies or to the probe response
ones, with preference to the probe response (meaning that if there was
even one probe response, the ies of it will be stored in bss->ies and
won't be overiden by the beacon ies).
The probe response can be very old, i.e. from the connection time,
where a beacon is updated before each link selection (which is
triggered only after a passive scan).
In such case, the bss load element in the probe response will not
include the channel load caused by the STA, where the beacon will.
This will cause the inactive link to always have a lower channel
load, and therefore an higher grade than the active link's one.
This causes repeated link switches, causing the throughput to drop.
Fix this by always taking the ies from the beacon, as those are for
sure new.

During the development of the rate changes, I evidently made
some changes that shouldn't have been there; beacon templates
with rate_n_flags are only in old versions, so no changes to
them should have been necessary, and evidently broke on some
devices. This also would have broken fixed (injection) rates,
it would seem. Restore the old handling of this.

The list_for_each_entry() iterator must not be used outside the loop.
Even though we break and check for NULL, doing so still violates kernel
iteration rules and triggers Coccinelle's use_after_iter.cocci warning.
Cache the matched entry in aux_roc_te and use it consistently after the
loop. This follows iterator best practices, resolves the warning, and
makes the code more maintainable.

This is bad because :
1) Large batches hold one victim cpu for a very long time.
2) Driver often hit their own TX ring limit (all slots are used).
3) We call dev_requeue_skb()
4) Requeues are using a FIFO (q->gso_skb), breaking qdisc ability to
implement FQ or priority scheduling.
5) dequeue_skb() gets packets from q->gso_skb one skb at a time
with no xmit_more support. This is causing many spinlock games
between the qdisc and the device driver.
Requeues were supposed to be very rare, lets keep them this way.
Limit batch sizes to /proc/sys/net/core/dev_weight (default 64) as
__qdisc_run() was designed to use.

The 'run_tests' function is executed in the background, but killing its
associated PID would not kill the children tasks running in the
background.
To properly kill all background tasks, 'kill -- -PID' could be used, but
this requires kill from procps-ng. Instead, all children tasks are
listed using 'ps', and 'kill' is called with all PIDs of this group.

MPTCP Join "fastclose server" selftest is sometimes failing because the
client output file doesn't have the expected size, e.g. 296B instead of
1024B.
When looking at a packet trace when this happens, the server sent the
expected 1024B in two parts -- 100B, then 924B -- then the MP_FASTCLOSE.
It is then strange to see the client only receiving 296B, which would
mean it only got a part of the second packet. The problem is then not on
the networking side, but rather on the data reception side.
When mptcp_connect is launched with '-f -1', it means the connection
might stop before having sent everything, because a reset has been
received. When this happens, the program was directly stopped. But it is
also possible there are still some data to read, simply because the
previous 'read' step was done with a buffer smaller than the pending
data, see do_rnd_read(). In this case, it is important to read what's
left in the kernel buffers before stopping without error like before.
SIGPIPE is now ignored, not to quit the app before having read
everything.

In rare cases, when the test environment is very slow, some userspace
tests can fail because some expected events have not been seen.
Because the tests are expecting a long on-going connection, and they are
not waiting for the end of the transfer, it is fine to make the
connection longer. This connection will be killed at the end, after the
verifications, so making it longer doesn't change anything, apart from
avoid it to end before the end of the verifications

Some of these 'remove' tests rarely fail because a subflow has been
reset instead of cleanly removed. This can happen when one extra subflow
which has never carried data is being closed (FIN) on one side, while
the other is sending data for the first time.
To avoid such subflows to be used right at the end, the backup flag has
been added. With that, data will be only carried on the initial subflow.

Pull arm64 fixes from Will Deacon:
"There's more here than I would ideally like at this stage, but there's
been a steady trickle of fixes and some of them took a few rounds of
review.
The bulk of the changes are fixing some fallout from the recent BBM
level two support which allows the linear map to be split from block
to page mappings at runtime, but inadvertently led to sleeping in
atomic context on some paths where the linear map was already mapped
with page granularity. The fix is simply to avoid splitting in those
cases but the implementation of that is a little involved.
The other interesting fix is addressing a catastophic performance
issue with our per-cpu atomics discovered by Paul in the SRCU locking
code but which took some interactions with the hardware folks to
resolve.
Summary:
- Avoid sleeping in atomic context when changing linear map
permissions for DEBUG_PAGEALLOC or KFENCE
- Rework printing of Spectre mitigation status to avoid hardlockup
when enabling per-task mitigations on the context-switch path
- Reject kernel modules when instruction patching fails either due to
the DWARF-based SCS patching or because of an alternatives callback
residing outside of the core kernel text
- Propagate error when updating kernel memory permissions in kprobes
- Drop pointless, incorrect message when enabling the ACPI SPCR
console
- Use value-returning LSE instructions for per-cpu atomics to reduce
latency in SRCU locking routines"

When smb_direct_disconnect_rdma_connection() turns SMBDIRECT_SOCKET_CREATED
into SMBDIRECT_SOCKET_ERROR, we'll have the situation that
smb_direct_disconnect_rdma_work() will set SMBDIRECT_SOCKET_DISCONNECTING
and call rdma_disconnect(), which likely fails as we never reached
the RDMA_CM_EVENT_ESTABLISHED. it means that
wait_event(sc->status_wait, sc->status == SMBDIRECT_SOCKET_DISCONNECTED)
in free_transport() will hang forever in SMBDIRECT_SOCKET_DISCONNECTING
never reaching SMBDIRECT_SOCKET_DISCONNECTED.
So we directly go from SMBDIRECT_SOCKET_CREATED to
SMBDIRECT_SOCKET_DISCONNECTED.

Currently, CQs without a completion function are assigned the
mlx5_add_cq_to_tasklet function by default. This is problematic since
only user CQs created through the mlx5_ib driver are intended to use
this function.
Additionally, all CQs that will use doorbells instead of polling for
completions must call mlx5_cq_arm. However, the default CQ creation flow
leaves a valid value in the CQ's arm_db field, allowing FW to send
interrupts to polling-only CQs in certain corner cases.
These two factors would allow a polling-only kernel CQ to be triggered
by an EQ interrupt and call a completion function intended only for user
CQs, causing a null pointer exception.
Some areas in the driver have prevented this issue with one-off fixes
but did not address the root cause.
This patch fixes the described issue by adding defaults to the create CQ
flow. It adds a default dummy completion function to protect against
null pointer exceptions, and it sets an invalid command sequence number
by default in kernel CQs to prevent the FW from sending an interrupt to
the CQ until it is armed. User CQs are responsible for their own
initialization values.
Callers of mlx5_core_create_cq are responsible for changing the
completion function and arming the CQ per their needs.

The previous calculation used roundup() which caused an overflow for
rates between 25.5Gbps and 26Gbps.
For example, a rate of 25.6Gbps would result in using 100Mbps units with
value of 256, which would overflow the 8 bits field.
Simplify the upper_limit_mbps calculation by removing the
unnecessary roundup, and adjust the comparison to use <= to correctly
handle the boundary condition.

Fix a KMSAN kernel-infoleak detected by the syzbot .
[net?] KMSAN: kernel-infoleak in __skb_datagram_iter
In tcf_ife_dump(), the variable 'opt' was partially initialized using a
designatied initializer. While the padding bytes are reamined
uninitialized. nla_put() copies the entire structure into a
netlink message, these uninitialized bytes leaked to userspace.
Initialize the structure with memset before assigning its fields
to ensure all members and padding are cleared prior to beign copied.
This change silences the KMSAN report and prevents potential information
leaks from the kernel memory.
This fix has been tested and validated by syzbot. This patch closes the
bug reported at the following syzkaller link and ensures no infoleak.
