      rbd: drop an unsafe assertion · 638c323c
      Alex Elder authored
      
      
      Olivier Bonvalet reported having repeated crashes due to a failed
      assertion he was hitting in rbd_img_obj_callback():
      
          Assertion failure in rbd_img_obj_callback() at line 2165:
      	rbd_assert(which >= img_request->next_completion);
      
      With a lot of help from Olivier with reproducing the problem
      we were able to determine the object and image requests had
      already been completed (and often freed) at the point the
      assertion failed.
      
      There was a great deal of discussion on the ceph-devel mailing list
      about this.  The problem only arose when there were two (or more)
      object requests in an image request, and the problem was always
      seen when the second request was being completed.
      
      The problem is due to a race in the window between setting the
      "done" flag on an object request and checking the image request's
      next completion value.  When the first object request completes, it
      checks to see if its successor request is marked "done", and if
      so, that request is also completed.  In the process, the image
      request's next_completion value is updated to reflect that both
      the first and second requests are completed.  By the time the
      second request is able to check the next_completion value, it
      has been set to a value *greater* than its own "which" value,
      which caused an assertion to fail.
      
      Fix this problem by skipping over any completion processing
      unless the completing object request is the next one expected.
      Test only for inequality (not >=), and eliminate the bad
      assertion.

      bridge: Fix crash with vlan filtering and tcpdump · fc92f745
      Vlad Yasevich authored
      
      
      When the vlan filtering is enabled on the bridge, but
      the filter is not configured on the bridge device itself,
      running tcpdump on the bridge device will result in a
      an Oops with NULL pointer dereference.  The reason
      is that br_pass_frame_up() will bypass the vlan
      check because promisc flag is set.  It will then try
      to get the table pointer and process the packet based
      on the table.  Since the table pointer is NULL, we oops.
      Catch this special condition in br_handle_vlan().

      net: Account for all vlan headers in skb_mac_gso_segment · 53d6471c
      Vlad Yasevich authored
      
      
      skb_network_protocol() already accounts for multiple vlan
      headers that may be present in the skb.  However, skb_mac_gso_segment()
      doesn't know anything about it and assumes that skb->mac_len
      is set correctly to skip all mac headers.  That may not
      always be the case.  If we are simply forwarding the packet (via
      bridge or macvtap), all vlan headers may not be accounted for.
      
      A simple solution is to allow skb_network_protocol to return
      the vlan depth it has calculated.  This way skb_mac_gso_segment
      will correctly skip all mac headers.

        review, but we haven't heard from Goldwyn in the past few days.
        Sasha's patch fixes the oops, but the feature as a whole is probably

      On x86 uniprocessor systems topology_physical_package_id() returns -1
      which causes rapl_cpu_prepare() to leave rapl_pmu variable uninitialized
      which leads to GPF in rapl_pmu_init().
      
      See arch/x86/kernel/cpu/perf_event_intel_rapl.c.
      
      It turns out that physical_package_id and core_id can actually be
      retreived for uniprocessor systems too.  Enabling them also fixes
      rapl_pmu code.

      ipv6: move DAD and addrconf_verify processing to workqueue · c15b1cca
      Hannes Frederic Sowa authored
      
      
      addrconf_join_solict and addrconf_join_anycast may cause actions which
      need rtnl locked, especially on first address creation.
      
      A new DAD state is introduced which defers processing of the initial
      DAD processing into a workqueue.
      
      To get rtnl lock we need to push the code paths which depend on those
      calls up to workqueues, specifically addrconf_verify and the DAD
      processing.
      
      (v2)
      addrconf_dad_failure needs to be queued up to the workqueue, too. This
      patch introduces a new DAD state and stop the DAD processing in the
      workqueue (this is because of the possible ipv6_del_addr processing
      which removes the solicited multicast address from the device).
      
      addrconf_verify_lock is removed, too. After the transition it is not
      needed any more.
      
      As we are not processing in bottom half anymore we need to be a bit more
      careful about disabling bottom half out when we lock spin_locks which are also
      used in bh.
