fib_trie: avoid a redundant bit judgement in inflate
Because 'node' is the i'st child of 'oldnode',
thus, here 'i' equals
tkey_extract_bits(node->key, oldtnode->pos, oldtnode->bits)
we just get 1 more bit,
and need not care the detail value of this bits.
I apologize for the mistake.
I generated the patch on a branch version,
and did not notice the put_child has been changed.
I have redone the test on HEAD version with my patch.
two cases are used.
case 1. inflate a node which has a leaf child node.
case 2: inflate a node which has a an child node with skipped bits
test env:
ip link set eth0 up
ip a add dev eth0 192.168.11.1/32
here, we just focus on route table(MAIN),
so I use a "192.168.11.1/32" address to simplify the test case.
call trace:
+ fib_insert_node
+ + trie_rebalance
+ + + resize
+ + + + inflate
Test case 1: inflate a node which has a leaf child node.
===========================================================
step 1. prepare a fib trie
------------------------------------------
ip r a 192.168.0.0/24 via 192.168.11.1
ip r a 192.168.1.0/24 via 192.168.11.1
we get a fib trie.

step 2. Add the third route
------------------------------------------
root@baker:~# ip r a 192.168.2.0/24 via 192.168.11.1
A fib_trie leaf will be inserted in fib_insert_node before trie_rebalance.
For function 'inflate':
'inflate' is called with following trie.
+-- 192.168.0.0/22 1 1 0 <=== tn node
+-- 192.168.0.0/23 1 0 0 <== node a

/24 universe UNICAST
|-- 192.168.1.0
/24 universe UNICAST
|-- 192.168.2.0 <== leaf(node b)
When process node b, which is a leaf. here:
i is 1,
node key "192.168.2.0"
oldnode is (pos:22, bits:1)
unpatch source:
tkey_extract_bits(node->key, oldtnode->pos + oldtnode->bits, 1)
it equals:
tkey_extract_bits("192.168,2,0", 22 + 1, 1)
thus got 0, and call put_child(tn, 2*i, node); <== 2*i=2.
patched source:
tkey_extract_bits(node->key, oldtnode->pos, oldtnode->bits + 1),
tkey_extract_bits("192.168,2,0", 22, 1 + 1) <== get 2.
Test case 2: inflate a node which has a an child node with skipped bits

step 1. prepare a fib trie.
ip link set eth0 up

step 2. add a route to trigger inflate.
ip r a 192.168.96.0/24 via 192.168.11.1
This command will call serveral times inflate.
In the first time, the fib_trie is:
________________________

|-- 192.168.160.0
|-- 192.168.176.0
NOTE: node b is a interal node with skipped bits.
here,
i:1,
node->key "192.168.128.0",
oldnode:(pos:16, bits:1)
so
tkey_extract_bits(node->key, oldtnode->pos + oldtnode->bits, 1)
it equals:
tkey_extract_bits("192.168,128,0", 16 + 1, 1) <=== 0
tkey_extract_bits(node->key, oldtnode->pos, oldtnode->bits, 1)
it equals:
tkey_extract_bits("192.168,128,0", 16, 1+1) <=== 2
2*i + 0 == 2, so the result is same.

pkt_sched: fq: rate limiting improvements
FQ rate limiting suffers from two problems, reported
by Steinar :
1) FQ enforces a delay when flow quantum is exhausted in order
to reduce cpu overhead. But if packets are small, current
delay computation is slightly wrong, and observed rates can
be too high.
Steinar had this problem because he disabled TSO and GSO,
and default FQ quantum is 2*1514.
(Of course, I wish recent TSO auto sizing changes will help
to not having to disable TSO in the first place)
2) maxrate was not used for forwarded flows (skbs not attached
to a socket)

bonding: Fix broken promiscuity reference counting issue
Recently grabbed this report:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=
1005567
Of an issue in which the bonding driver, with an attached vlan encountered the
following errors when bond0 was taken down and back up:
dummy1: promiscuity touches roof, set promiscuity failed. promiscuity feature of
device might be broken.
The error occurs because, during __bond_release_one, if we release our last
slave, we take on a random mac address and issue a NETDEV_CHANGEADDR
notification. With an attached vlan, the vlan may see that the vlan and bond
mac address were in sync, but no longer are. This triggers a call to dev_uc_add
and dev_set_rx_mode, which enables IFF_PROMISC on the bond device. Then, when
we complete __bond_release_one, we use the current state of the bond flags to
determine if we should decrement the promiscuity of the releasing slave. But
since the bond changed promiscuity state during the release operation, we
incorrectly decrement the slave promisc count when it wasn't in promiscuous mode
to begin with, causing the above error
Fix is pretty simple, just cache the bonding flags at the start of the function
and use those when determining the need to set promiscuity.
This is also needed for the ALLMULTI flag

tcp: TSQ can use a dynamic limit
When TCP Small Queues was added, we used a sysctl to limit amount of
packets queues on Qdisc/device queues for a given TCP flow.
Problem is this limit is either too big for low rates, or too small
for high rates.
Now TCP stack has rate estimation in sk->sk_pacing_rate, and TSO
auto sizing, it can better control number of packets in Qdisc/device
queues.
New limit is two packets or at least 1 to 2 ms worth of packets.
Low rates flows benefit from this patch by having even smaller
number of packets in queues, allowing for faster recovery,
better RTT estimations.
High rates flows benefit from this patch by allowing more than 2 packets
in flight as we had reports this was a limiting factor to reach line
rate. [ In particular if TX completion is delayed because of coalescing
parameters ]
Example for a single flow on 10Gbp link controlled by FQ/pacing
14 packets in flight instead of 2

Note that sk_pacing_rate is currently set to twice the actual rate, but
this might be refined in the future when a flow is in congestion

A future patch (for linux 3.13+) might remove tcp_limit_output_bytes

xen-netback: improve ring effeciency for guest RX
There was a bug that netback routines netbk/xenvif_skb_count_slots and
netbk/xenvif_gop_frag_copy disagreed with each other, which caused
netback to push wrong number of responses to netfront, which caused
netfront to eventually crash. The bug was fixed in
6e43fc04a
("xen-netback: count number required slots for an skb more carefully").
Commit
6e43fc04a focused on backport-ability. The drawback with the
existing packing scheme is that the ring is not used effeciently, as
stated in
6e43fc04a.
skb->data like:
| 1111|
222222222222|3333 |
is arranged as:
|1111 |
222222222222|3333 |
If we can do this:
|
111122222222|
22223333 |
That would save one ring slot, which improves ring effeciency.
This patch effectively reverts
6e43fc04a. That patch made count_slots
agree with gop_frag_copy, while this patch goes the other way around --
make gop_frag_copy agree with count_slots. The end result is that they
still agree with each other, and the ring is now arranged like:
|
111122222222|
22223333 |
The patch that improves packing was first posted by Xi Xong and Matt
Wilson. I only rebase it on top of net-next and rewrite commit message,
so I retain all their SoBs. For more infomation about the original bug
please refer to email listed below and commit message of

ipc,msg: prevent race with rmid in msgsnd,msgrcv
This fixes a race in both msgrcv() and msgsnd() between finding the msg
and actually dealing with the queue, as another thread can delete shmid
underneath us if we are preempted before acquiring the
kern_ipc_perm.lock.
Manfred illustrates this nicely:
Assume a preemptible kernel that is preempted just after
msq = msq_obtain_object_check(ns, msqid)
in do_msgrcv(). The only lock that is held is rcu_read_lock().
Now the other thread processes IPC_RMID. When the first task is
resumed, then it will happily wait for messages on a deleted queue.
Fix this by checking for if the queue has been deleted after taking the

mm/mlock.c: prevent walking off the end of a pagetable in no-pmd configuration
The function __munlock_pagevec_fill() introduced in commit
7a8010cd3627
("mm: munlock: manual pte walk in fast path instead of
follow_page_mask()") uses pmd_addr_end() for restricting its operation
within current page table.
This is insufficient on architectures/configurations where pmd is folded
and pmd_addr_end() just returns the end of the full range to be walked.
In this case, it allows pte++ to walk off the end of a page table
resulting in unpredictable behaviour.
This patch fixes the function by using pgd_addr_end() and pud_addr_end()
before pmd_addr_end(), which will yield correct page table boundary on
all configurations. This is similar to what existing page walkers do
when walking each level of the page table.

nilfs2: fix issue with race condition of competition between segments for dirty blocks
Many NILFS2 users were reported about strange file system corruption
(for example):
NILFS: bad btree node (blocknr=185027): level = 0, flags = 0x0, nchildren = 768
NILFS error (device sda4): nilfs_bmap_last_key: broken bmap (inode number=11540)
But such error messages are consequence of file system's issue that takes
place more earlier. Fortunately, Jerome Poulin <jeromepoulin@gmail.com>
and Anton Eliasson <devel@antoneliasson.se> were reported about another
issue not so recently. These reports describe the issue with segctor
thread's crash:
BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at

ret_from_fork+0x7c/0xb0
These two issues have one reason. This reason can raise third issue
too. Third issue results in hanging of segctor thread with eating of
100% CPU.
REPRODUCING PATH:
One of the possible way or the issue reproducing was described by
Jermoe me Poulin <jeromepoulin@gmail.com>:
1. init S to get to single user mode.
2. sysrq+E to make sure only my shell is running
3. start network-manager to get my wifi connection up
4. login as root and launch "screen"
5. cd /boot/log/nilfs which is a ext3 mount point and can log when NILFS dies.
6. lscp | xz -9e > lscp.txt.xz
7. mount my snapshot using mount -o cp=
3360839,ro /dev/vgUbuntu/root /mnt/nilfs
8. start a screen to dump /proc/kmsg to text file since rsyslog is killed
9. start a screen and launch strace -f -o find-cat.log -t find
/mnt/nilfs -type f -exec cat {} > /dev/null \;
10. start a screen and launch strace -f -o apt-get.log -t apt-get update
11. launch the last command again as it did not crash the first time
12. apt-get crashes
13. ps aux > ps-aux-crashed.log
13. sysrq+W
14. sysrq+E wait for everything to terminate
15. sysrq+SUSB
Simplified way of the issue reproducing is starting kernel compilation
task and "apt-get update" in parallel.
REPRODUCIBILITY:
The issue is reproduced not stable [60% - 80%]. It is very important to
have proper environment for the issue reproducing. The critical
conditions for successful reproducing:
(1) It should have big modified file by mmap() way.
(2) This file should have the count of dirty blocks are greater that
several segments in size (for example, two or three) from time to time
during processing.
(3) It should be intensive background activity of files modification
in another thread.
INVESTIGATION:
First of all, it is possible to see that the reason of crash is not valid
page address:
NILFS [nilfs_segctor_complete_write]:2100 bh->b_count 0, bh->b_blocknr
13895680, bh->b_size
13897727, bh->b_page
0000000000001a82
NILFS [nilfs_segctor_complete_write]:2101 segbuf->sb_segnum 6783
Moreover, value of b_page (0x1a82) is 6786. This value looks like segment
number. And b_blocknr with b_size values look like block numbers. So,
buffer_head's pointer points on not proper address value.
Detailed investigation of the issue is discovered such picture:

Usually, for every segment we collect dirty files in list. Then, dirty
blocks are gathered for every dirty file, prepared for write and
submitted by means of nilfs_segbuf_submit_bh() call. Finally, it takes
place complete write phase after calling nilfs_end_bio_write() on the
block layer. Buffers/pages are marked as not dirty on final phase and
processed files removed from the list of dirty files.
It is possible to see that we had three prepare_write and submit_bio
phases before segbuf_wait and complete_write phase. Moreover, segments
compete between each other for dirty blocks because on every iteration
of segments processing dirty buffer_heads are added in several lists of
payload_buffers:
[SEGMENT 6784]: bh->b_assoc_buffers.next
ffff880218a0d5f8, bh->b_assoc_buffers.prev
ffff880218bcdf50
[SEGMENT 6785]: bh->b_assoc_buffers.next
ffff880218a0d5f8, bh->b_assoc_buffers.prev
ffff880222cc7ee8
The next pointer is the same but prev pointer has changed. It means
that buffer_head has next pointer from one list but prev pointer from
another. Such modification can be made several times. And, finally, it
can be resulted in various issues: (1) segctor hanging, (2) segctor
crashing, (3) file system metadata corruption.
FIX:
This patch adds:
(1) setting of BH_Async_Write flag in nilfs_segctor_prepare_write()
for every proccessed dirty block;
(2) checking of BH_Async_Write flag in
nilfs_lookup_dirty_data_buffers() and
nilfs_lookup_dirty_node_buffers();
(3) clearing of BH_Async_Write flag in nilfs_segctor_complete_write(),
nilfs_abort_logs(), nilfs_forget_buffer(), nilfs_clear_dirty_page().

kernel/kmod.c: check for NULL in call_usermodehelper_exec()

This bug was once fixed by commit

This bug seems to exist since 2.6.19 (the version which core dump to

ipc/sem.c: fix race in sem_lock()
The exclusion of complex operations in sem_lock() is insufficient: after
acquiring the per-semaphore lock, a simple op must first check that
sem_perm.lock is not locked and only after that test check
complex_count. The current code does it the other way around - and that
creates a race. Details are below.
The patch is a complete rewrite of sem_lock(), based in part on the code
from Mike Galbraith. It removes all gotos and all loops and thus the
risk of livelocks.
I have tested the patch (together with the next one) on my i3 laptop and
it didn't cause any problems.
The bug is probably also present in 3.10 and 3.11, but for these kernels
it might be simpler just to move the test of sma->complex_count after
the spin_is_locked() test.
Details of the bug:
Assume:
- sma->complex_count = 0.
- Thread 1: semtimedop(complex op that must sleep)
- Thread 2: semtimedop(simple op).

net: flow_dissector: fix thoff for IPPROTO_AH
In commit
8ed781668dd49 ("flow_keys: include thoff into flow_keys for
later usage"), we missed that existing code was using nhoff as a
temporary variable that could not always contain transport header
offset.
This is not a problem for TCP/UDP because port offset (@poff)
is 0 for these protocols.

Merge branch 'master' of git://git./linux/kernel/git/klassert/ipsec-next
Conflicts:
include/net/xfrm.h
Simple conflict between Joe Perches "extern" removal for function
declarations in header files and the changes in Steffen's tree.
Steffen Klassert says:
====================
Two patches that are left from the last development cycle.
Manual merging of include/net/xfrm.h is needed. The conflict
can be solved as it is currently done in linux-next.
1) We announce the creation of temporary acquire state via an asyc event,
so the deletion should be annunced too. From Nicolas Dichtel.
2) The VTI tunnels do not real tunning, they just provide a routable
IPsec tunnel interface. So introduce and use xfrm_tunnel_notifier
instead of xfrm_tunnel for xfrm tunnel mode callback. From Fan Du.

xen-netback: Handle backend state transitions in a more robust way
When the frontend state changes netback now specifies its desired state to
a new function, set_backend_state(), which transitions through any
necessary intermediate states.
This fixes an issue observed with some old Windows frontend drivers where
they failed to transition through the Closing state and netback would not
behave correctly.

dev: always advertise rx_flags changes via netlink
When flags IFF_PROMISC and IFF_ALLMULTI are changed, netlink messages are not
consistent. For example, if a multicast daemon is running (flag IFF_ALLMULTI
set in dev->flags but not dev->gflags, ie not exported to userspace) and then a
user sets it via netlink (flag IFF_ALLMULTI set in dev->flags and dev->gflags, ie
exported to userspace), no netlink message is sent.
Same for IFF_PROMISC and because dev->promiscuity is exported via
IFLA_PROMISCUITY, we may send a netlink message after each change of this
counter.
