| * openvswitch: Move LRO check from transmit to receive.Jesse Gross2013-01-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The check for LRO packets was incorrectly put in the transmit path instead of on receive. Since this check is supposed to protect OVS (and other parts of the system) from packets that it cannot handle it is obviously not useful on egress. Therefore, this commit moves it back to the receive side. The primary problem that this caused is upcalls to userspace tried to segment the packet even though no segmentation information is available. This would later cause NULL pointer dereferences when skb_gso_segment() did nothing. Signed-off-by: Jesse Gross <jesse@nicira.com>

CVE-2013-0216 is a failure to sanity check the ring producer/consumer pointers which can allow a guest to cause netback to loop for an extended period preventing other work from occurring. CVE-2013-0217 is a memory leak on an error path which is guest triggerable. The following series contains the fixes for these issues, as previously included in Xen Security Advisory 39: http://lists.xen.org/archives/html/xen-announce/2013-02/msg00001.html Changes in v2: - Typo and block comment format fixes - Added stable Cc ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

| * | xen/netback: shutdown the ring if it contains garbage.Ian Campbell2013-02-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A buggy or malicious frontend should not be able to confuse netback. If we spot anything which is not as it should be then shutdown the device and don't try to continue with the ring in a potentially hostile state. Well behaved and non-hostile frontends will not be penalised. As well as making the existing checks for such errors fatal also add a new check that ensures that there isn't an insane number of requests on the ring (i.e. more than would fit in the ring). If the ring contains garbage then previously is was possible to loop over this insane number, getting an error each time and therefore not generating any more pending requests and therefore not exiting the loop in xen_netbk_tx_build_gops for an externded period. Also turn various netdev_dbg calls which no precipitate a fatal error into netdev_err, they are rate limited because the device is shutdown afterwards. This fixes at least one known DoS/softlockup of the backend domain.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There are transients during normal FRTO procedure during which the packets_in_flight can go to zero between write_queue state updates and firing the resulting segments out. As FRTO processing occurs during that window the check must be more precise to not match "spuriously" :-). More specificly, e.g., when packets_in_flight is zero but FLAG_DATA_ACKED is true the problematic branch that set cwnd into zero would not be taken and new segments might be sent out later.

Linville says: ==================== Please consider this pull request for the 3.8 stream... Included is a bluetooth pull. Gustavo says: "Two simple fixes for 3.8. One of the patches fixes a situation where the connection wasn't terminated if a timeout ocurrs for LE an SCO connections. The other fixes prevent NULL dereference in the SMP code, it is a security fix as well." Along with those... Hauke Mehrtens provides a couple of ssb and bcma bus fixes that prevent oopses when unloading those modules. Larry Finger provides and rtlwifi fix to avoid a "scheduling while atomic" bug. Last but certainly not least, Arend van Spriel bring a brcmsmac fix that reworks the mac80211 .flush() callback in order to avoid the dreaded brcms_c_wait_for_tx_completion warnings. This one looks a little large, but I think it is safe and isolated to brcmsmac in any case. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

| * | brcmsmac: rework of mac80211 .flush() callback operationArend van Spriel2013-02-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch addresses a long standing issue of the driver with the mac80211 .flush() callback. Since implementing the .flush() callback a number of issues have been fixed, but a WARN_ON_ONCE() was still triggered because the timeout on the flush could still occur. This patch changes the awkward design using msleep() into one using a waitqueue. The waiting flush() context will kick the transmit dma when it is idle and the timeout used waiting for the event is set to 500 ms. Worst case there can be 64 frames outstanding for transmit in the driver. At a rate of 1Mbps that would take 1.5 seconds assuming MTU is 1500 bytes and ignoring retries. The WARN_ON_ONCE() is also removed as this was put in to indicate the flush timeout as a reason for the driver to stall. That was not happening since fixing endless AMPDU retries with following upstream commit: commit 85091fc0a75653e239dc8379658515e577544927 Author: Arend van Spriel <arend@broadcom.com> Date: Thu Feb 23 18:38:22 2012 +0100 brcm80211: smac: fix endless retry of A-MPDU transmissions bugzilla: 42840 <https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42840> bugzilla@redhat: <https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=799168> bugzilla@redhat: <https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=787649> Cc: Jonathan Nieder <jrnieder@gmail.com> Cc: Stanislaw Gruszka <sgruszka@redhat.com> Cc: Camaleón <noelamac@gmail.com> Cc: Milan Bouchet-Valat <nalimilan@club-internet.fr> Cc: Seth Forshee <seth.forshee@canonical.com> Reviewed-by: Pieter-Paul Giesberts <pieterpg@broadcom.com> Reviewed-by: Hante Meuleman <meuleman@broadcom.com> Reviewed-by: Piotr Haber <phaber@broadcom.com> Signed-off-by: Arend van Spriel <arend@broadcom.com> Acked-by: Seth Forshee <seth.forshee@canonical.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Kernel commits 41affd5 and 6539306 changed the locking in rtl_lps_leave() from a spinlock to a mutex by doing the calls indirectly from a work queue to reduce the time that interrupts were disabled. This change was fine for most systems; however a scheduling while atomic bug was reported in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=903881. The backtrace indicates that routine rtl_is_special(), which calls rtl_lps_leave() in three places was entered in atomic context. These direct calls are replaced by putting a request on the appropriate work queue.

We do not want to count this as a drop, or log any debug messages. A different exit path is therefore chosen for such drivers, skipping the debug message and the tx_dropped increment. The test for accumulating drivers was however completely bogus, making the exit path selection depend on whether the user had enabled tx_err logging or not. This would arbitrarily mess up accounting for both accumulating and non-accumulating minidrivers, and would result in unwanted debug messages for the accumulating drivers. Fix by testing for FLAG_MULTI_PACKET instead, which probably was the intention from the beginning. This usage match the documented behaviour of this flag: Indicates to usbnet, that USB driver accumulates multiple IP packets. Affects statistic (counters) and short packet handling.

But when calling it for the first time, it fills req->tp_block_nr with the value of rb->pg_vec_len which in the second invocation makes it bail out since req->tp_block_nr is greater zero but req->tp_block_size is zero. This patch solves the problem by passing a zeroed auto-variable to packet_set_ring() upon each invocation from packet_release(). As far as I can tell, this issue exists even since 69e3c75 (net: TX_RING and packet mmap), i.e. the original inclusion of TX ring support into af_packet, but applies only to sockets with both RX and TX ring allocated, which is probably why this was unnoticed all the time.

The code terminate processing when the limit is reached regardless the txstatus value read from the device register. When that status is is flagged as being valid it must be processed as the hardware will clear it after is has been read.

But if F-RTO is disabled, icsk_retransmit is reset at step D of tcp_fastretrans_alert() ( under tcp_ack()) before tcp_rcv_fastopen_synack(). The fix is to use total_retrans instead which accounts for SYN retransmission regardless the use of F-RTO. Signed-off-by: Yuchung Cheng <ycheng@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Correct this by setting netif_carrier_off on probe, like other drivers do. Also, while we're at it, lets remove the netif_carrier_ok checks from the link_state_update function, as that check is atomically contained within the netif_carrier_[on|off] functions anyway Tested successfully by myself Signed-off-by: Neil Horman <nhorman@tuxdriver.com> CC: "David S.

Enable Error Correcting Code (ECC) in hardware to catch both correctable and uncorrectable errors. Correctable errors will be handled by the hardware. Uncorrectable errors in the packet buffer will cause the packet to be received with an error indication in the buffer descriptor causing the packet to be discarded. If the uncorrectable error is in the descriptor itself, the hardware will stop and interrupt the driver indicating the error. The driver will then reset the hardware in order to clear the error and restart. Both types of errors will be accounted for in statistics counters.
