The VXLAN neigh_reduce() code is completely non-functional since check-in. Specific errors: 1) The original code drops all packets with a multicast destination address, even though neighbor solicitations are sent to the solicited-node address, a multicast address. The code after this check was never run. 2) The neighbor table lookup used the IPv6 header destination, which is the solicited node address, rather than the target address from the neighbor solicitation. So neighbor lookups would always fail if it got this far. Also for L3MISSes. 3) The code calls ndisc_send_na(), which does a send on the tunnel device. The context for neigh_reduce() is the transmit path, vxlan_xmit(), where the host or a bridge-attached neighbor is trying to transmit a neighbor solicitation. To respond to it, the tunnel endpoint needs to do a *receive* of the appropriate neighbor advertisement. Doing a send, would only try to send the advertisement, encapsulated, to the remote destinations in the fdb -- hosts that definitely did not do the corresponding solicitation. 4) The code uses the tunnel endpoint IPv6 forwarding flag to determine the isrouter flag in the advertisement. This has nothing to do with whether or not the target is a router, and generally won't be set since the tunnel endpoint is bridging, not routing, traffic. The patch below creates a proxy neighbor advertisement to respond to neighbor solicitions as intended, providing proper IPv6 support for neighbor reduction. Signed-off-by:

Christian Riesch says: ==================== net: davinci_emac: Fix interrupt requests and error handling since commit 6892b41d (Linux 3.11) the davinci_emac driver is broken. After doing ifconfig down, ifconfig up, requesting the interrupts for the driver fails. The interface remains dead until the board is rebooted. The first patch in this patchset reverts commit 6892b41d partially and makes the driver useable again. During the work on the first patch, a number of bugs in the error handling of the driver's ndo_open code were found. The second patch fixes these bugs. I believe the first patch meets the rules for stable kernels, I therefore added the stable tag to this patch. The second patch is just cleanup, the code that is fixed by this patch is only executed in case of an error. ==================== Signed-off-by:

If an error occurs during the initialization in emac_dev_open() (the driver's ndo_open function), interrupts, DMA descriptors etc. must be freed. The current rollback code is buggy in several ways. 1) Freeing the interrupts. The current code will not free all interrupts that were requested by the driver. Furthermore, the code tries to do a platform_get_resource(priv->pdev, IORESOURCE_IRQ, -1) in its last iteration. This patch fixes these bugs. 2) Wrong order of err: and rollback: labels. If the setup of the PHY in the code fails, the interrupts that have been requested before are not freed: request irq if requesting irqs fails, goto rollback setup phy if phy setup fails, goto err return 0 rollback: free irqs err: This patch brings the code into the correct order. 3) The code calls napi_enable() and emac_int_enable(), but does not undo both in case of an error. This patch adds calls of emac_int_disable() and napi_disable() to the rollback code. 4) RX DMA descriptors are not freed in case of an error: Right before requesting the irqs, the function creates DMA descriptors for the RX channel. These RX descriptors are never freed when we jump to either rollback or err. This patch adds code for freeing the DMA descriptors in the case of an initialization error. This required a modification of cpdma_ctrl_stop() in davinci_cpdma.c: We must be able to call this function to free the DMA descriptors while the DMA channels are in IDLE state (before cpdma_ctlr_start() was called). Tested on a custom board with the Texas Instruments AM1808. Signed-off-by:

In commit 6892b41d Author: Lad, Prabhakar <prabhakar.csengg@gmail.com> Date: Tue Jun 25 21:24:51 2013 +0530 net: davinci: emac: Convert to devm_* api the call of request_irq is replaced by devm_request_irq and the call of free_irq is removed. But since interrupts are requested in emac_dev_open, doing ifconfig up/down on the board requests the interrupts again each time, causing devm_request_irq to fail. The interface is dead until the device is rebooted. This patch reverts said commit partially: It changes the driver back to use request_irq instead of devm_request_irq, puts free_irq back in place, but keeps the remaining changes of the original patch.

In arch_cpu_idle() we must enable %pil based interrupts before potentially invoking the hypervisor cpu yield call. As per the Hypervisor API documentation for cpu_yield: Interrupts which are blocked by some mechanism other that pstate.ie (for example %pil) are not guaranteed to cause a return from this service. It seems that only first generation Niagara chips are hit by this bug. My best guess is that later chips implement this in hardware and wake up anyways from %pil events, whereas in first generation chips the yield is implemented completely in hypervisor code and requires %pil to be enabled in order to wake properly from this call.

We can get false negative from __lookup_mnt() if an unrelated vfsmount gets moved. In that case legitimize_mnt() is guaranteed to fail, and we will fall back to non-RCU walk... unless we end up running into a hard error on a filesystem object we wouldn't have reached if not for that false negative. IOW, delaying that check until the end of pathname resolution is wrong - we should recheck right after we attempt to cross the mountpoint. We don't need to recheck unless we see d_mountpoint() being true - in that case even if we have just raced with mount/umount, we can simply go on as if we'd come at the moment when the sucker wasn't a mountpoint; if we run into a hard error as the result, it was a legitimate outcome. __lookup_mnt() returning NULL is different in that respect, since it might've happened due to operation on completely unrelated mountpoint.

Commit bd2a31d5 ("get rid of fget_light()") introduced the __fdget_pos() function, which returns the resulting file pointer and fdput flags combined in an 'unsigned long'. However, it also changed the behavior to return files with FMODE_PATH set, which shouldn't happen because read(), write(), lseek(), etc. aren't allowed on such files. This commit restores the old behavior. This regression actually had no effect on read() and write() since FMODE_READ and FMODE_WRITE are not set on file descriptors opened with O_PATH, but it did cause lseek() on a file descriptor opened with O_PATH to fail with ESPIPE rather than EBADF.

Srikar Dronamraju reports that commit b0c29f79 ("futexes: Avoid taking the hb->lock if there's nothing to wake up") causes java threads getting stuck on futexes when runing specjbb on a power7 numa box. The cause appears to be that the powerpc spinlocks aren't using the same ticket lock model that we use on x86 (and other) architectures, which in turn result in the "spin_is_locked()" test in hb_waiters_pending() occasionally reporting an unlocked spinlock even when there are pending waiters. So this reinstates Davidlohr Bueso's original explicit waiter counting code, which I had convinced Davidlohr to drop in favor of figuring out the pending waiters by just using the existing state of the spinlock and the wait queue.

Add remove_linear_migration_ptes_from_nonlinear(), to fix an interesting little include/linux/swapops.h:131 BUG_ON(!PageLocked) found by trinity: indicating that remove_migration_ptes() failed to find one of the migration entries that was temporarily inserted. The problem comes from remap_file_pages()'s switch from vma_interval_tree (good for inserting the migration entry) to i_mmap_nonlinear list (no good for locating it again); but can only be a problem if the remap_file_pages() range does not cover the whole of the vma (zap_pte() clears the range). remove_migration_ptes() needs a file_nonlinear method to go down the i_mmap_nonlinear list, applying linear location to look for migration entries in those vmas too, just in case there was this race. The file_nonlinear method does need rmap_walk_control.arg to do this; but it never needed vma passed in - vma comes from its own iteration. Reported-and-tested-by:

It leaves a race that's hard but not impossible to hit; the others fairly obvious" * 'upstream' of git://git.linux-mips.org/pub/scm/ralf/upstream-linus: MIPS: Make local_irq_disable macro safe for non-Mipsr2 MIPS: Octeon: Fix warning in of_device_alloc on cn3xxx MIPS: ftrace: Tweak safe_load()/safe_store() macros MIPS: BCM47XX: Check all (32) GPIOs when looking for a pin MIPS: Fix possible build error with transparent hugepages enabled

The kernel starts out its "jiffies" timer as 5 minutes below zero, as shown in include/linux/jiffies.h: /* * Have the 32 bit jiffies value wrap 5 minutes after boot * so jiffies wrap bugs show up earlier. */ #define INITIAL_JIFFIES ((unsigned long)(unsigned int) (-300*HZ)) The loop in ovs_flow_stats_get() starts out with 'used' set to 0, then takes any "later" time. This means that for the first five minutes after boot, flows will always be reported as never used, since 0 is greater than any time already seen. Signed-off-by:

In event format strings, the array size is reported in two locations. One in array subscript and then via the "size:" attribute. The values reported there have a mismatch. For e.g., in sched:sched_switch the prev_comm and next_comm character arrays have subscript values as [32] where as the actual field size is 16. name: sched_switch ID: 301 format: field:unsigned short common_type; offset:0; size:2; signed:0; field:unsigned char common_flags; offset:2; size:1; signed:0; field:unsigned char common_preempt_count; offset:3; size:1;signed:0; field:int common_pid; offset:4; size:4; signed:1; field:char prev_comm[32]; offset:8; size:16; signed:1; field:pid_t prev_pid; offset:24; size:4; signed:1; field:int prev_prio; offset:28; size:4; signed:1; field:long prev_state; offset:32; size:8; signed:1; field:char next_comm[32]; offset:40; size:16; signed:1; field:pid_t next_pid; offset:56; size:4; signed:1; field:int next_prio; offset:60; size:4; signed:1; After bisection, the following commit was blamed: 92edca07 tracing: Use direct field, type and system names This commit removes the duplication of strings for field->name and field->type assuming that all the strings passed in __trace_define_field() are immutable. This is not true for arrays, where the type string is created in event_storage variable and field->type for all array fields points to event_storage. Use __stringify() to create a string constant for the type string. Also, get rid of event_storage and event_storage_mutex that are not needed anymore. also, an added benefit is that this reduces the overhead of events a bit more: text data bss dec hex filename 8424787 2036472 1302528 11763787 b3804b vmlinux 8420814 2036408 1302528 11759750 b37086 vmlinux.patched Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1392349908-29685-1-git-send-email-vnagarnaik@google.com Cc: Laurent Chavey <chavey@google.com> Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org # 3.10+ Signed-off-by:

For non-mipsr2 processors, the local_irq_disable contains an mfc0-mtc0 pair with instructions inbetween. With preemption enabled, this sequence may get preempted and effect a stale value of CP0_STATUS when executing the mtc0 instruction. This commit avoids this scenario by incrementing the preempt count before the mfc0 and decrementing it after the mtc9. [ralf@linux-mips.org: This patch is sorting out the part that were missed by e97c5b60 [MIPS: Make irqflags.h functions preempt-safe for non-mipsr2 cpus.] I also re-enabled the inclusion of <asm/asm-offsets.h> at the top of <asm/asmmacro.h>].
