Small packet loss is reported on complex multi host network configurations
including tunnels, NAT, ... My investigation led me to the following check
in netback which drops packets:
if (unlikely(txreq.size < ETH_HLEN)) {
netdev_err(queue->vif->dev,
"Bad packet size: %d\n", txreq.size);
xenvif_tx_err(queue, &txreq, extra_count, idx);
break;
}
But this check itself is legitimate. SKBs consist of a linear part (which
has to have the ethernet header) and (optionally) a number of frags.
Netfront transmits the head of the linear part up to the page boundary
as the first request and all the rest becomes frags so when we're
reconstructing the SKB in netback we can't distinguish between original
frags and the 'tail' of the linear part. The first SKB needs to be at
least ETH_HLEN size. So in case we have an SKB with its linear part
starting too close to the page boundary the packet is lost.
I see two ways to fix the issue:
- Change the 'wire' protocol between netfront and netback to start keeping
the original SKB structure. We'll have to add a flag indicating the fact
that the particular request is a part of the original linear part and not
a frag. We'll need to know the length of the linear part to pre-allocate
memory.
- Avoid transmitting SKBs with linear parts starting too close to the page
boundary. That seems preferable short-term and shouldn't bring
significant performance degradation as such packets are rare. That's what
this patch is trying to achieve with skb_copy().

Commit 8c14586fc3 ("net: ipv6: Use passed in table for nexthop

not containing the appropriate connected route for the gateway but which
contained a non-connected route (like a default gateway) fails while it
was previously working:
$ ip link add eth0 type dummy
$ ip link set up dev eth0
$ ip addr add 2001:db8::1/64 dev eth0
$ ip route add ::/0 via 2001:db8::5 dev eth0 table 20
$ ip route add 2001:db8:cafe::1/128 via 2001:db8::6 dev eth0 table 20

Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>
Introduce a function that reads the exact nanoseconds value that is
provided to the guest in kvmclock. This crystallizes the notion of
kvmclock as a thin veneer over a stable TSC, that the guest will
(hopefully) convert with NTP. In other words, kvmclock is *not* a
paravirtualized host-to-guest NTP.
Drop the get_kernel_ns() function, that was used both to get the base
value of the master clock and to get the current value of kvmclock.
The former use is replaced by ktime_get_boot_ns(), the latter is
the purpose of get_kernel_ns().
This also allows KVM to provide a Hyper-V time reference counter that
is synchronized with the time that is computed from the TSC page.

Convert show_trace_log_lvl() to use the new unwinder. dump_trace() has
been deprecated.
show_trace_log_lvl() is special compared to other users of the unwinder.
It's the only place where both reliable *and* unreliable addresses are
needed. With frame pointers enabled, most callers of the unwinder don't
want to know about unreliable addresses. But in this case, when we're
dumping the stack to the console because something presumably went
wrong, the unreliable addresses are useful:
- They show stale data on the stack which can provide useful clues.
- If something goes wrong with the unwinder, or if frame pointers are
corrupt or missing, all the stack addresses still get shown.
So in order to show all addresses on the stack, and at the same time
figure out which addresses are reliable, we have to do the scanning and
the unwinding in parallel.
The scanning is done with the help of get_stack_info() to traverse the
stacks. The unwinding is done separately by the new unwinder.
In theory we could simplify show_trace_log_lvl() by instead pushing some
of this logic into the unwind code. But then we would need some kind of
"fake" frame logic in the unwinder which would add a lot of complexity
and wouldn't be worth it in order to support only one user.
Another benefit of this approach is that once we have a DWARF unwinder,
we should be able to just plug it in with minimal impact to this code.
Another change here is that callers of show_trace_log_lvl() don't need
to provide the 'bp' argument. The unwinder already finds the relevant
frame pointer by unwinding until it reaches the first frame after the
provided stack pointer.

The x86 stack dump code is a bit of a mess. dump_trace() uses
callbacks, and each user of it seems to have slightly different
requirements, so there are several slightly different callbacks floating
around.
Also there are some upcoming features which will need more changes to
the stack dump code, including the printing of stack pt_regs, reliable
stack detection for live patching, and a DWARF unwinder. Each of those
features would at least need more callbacks and/or callback interfaces,
resulting in a much bigger mess than what we have today.
Before doing all that, we should try to clean things up and replace
dump_trace() with something cleaner and more flexible.
The new unwinder is a simple state machine which was heavily inspired by
a suggestion from Andy Lutomirski:
https://lkml.kernel.org/r/CALCETrUbNTqaM2LRyXGRx=kVLRPeY5A3Pc6k4TtQxF320rUT=w@mail.gmail.com
It's also similar to the libunwind API:
http://www.nongnu.org/libunwind/man/libunwind(3).html
Some if its advantages:
- Simplicity: no more callback sprawl and less code duplication.
- Flexibility: it allows the caller to stop and inspect the stack state
at each step in the unwinding process.
- Modularity: the unwinder code, console stack dump code, and stack
metadata analysis code are all better separated so that changing one
of them shouldn't have much of an impact on any of the others.
Two implementations are added which conform to the new unwind interface:
- The frame pointer unwinder which is used for CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER=y.
- The "guess" unwinder which is used for CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER=n. This
isn't an "unwinder" per se. All it does is scan the stack for kernel
text addresses. But with no frame pointers, guesses are better than
nothing in most cases.

With the addition of uses of GCC's condition code outputs in commit:
35ccfb7114 ("x86, asm: Use CC_SET()/CC_OUT() in <asm/rwsem.h>")
... there's now an overlap of outputs and clobbers in __down_write_trylock().
Such overlaps are generally getting tagged with an error (occasionally
even with an ICE). I can't really tell why plain GCC 6.2 doesn't detect
this (judging by the code it is meant to), while the slightly modified
one I use does. Since condition code clobbers are never necessary on x86
(other than perhaps for documentation purposes, which doesn't really
get done consistently), remove it altogether rather than inventing
something like CC_CLOBBER (to accompany CC_SET/CC_OUT).

If kmemdup fails, We need kfree *buff* first then return -ENOMEM.
Otherwise there is a memory leak.

mtmsrd with L=1 only affects MSR_EE and MSR_RI bits, and we always
know what state those bits are, so the kernel MSR does not need to be
loaded when modifying them.
mtmsrd is often in the critical execution path, so avoiding dependency
on even L1 load is noticable. On a POWER8 this saves about 3 cycles
from the syscall path, and possibly a few from other exception returns
(not measured).

The mflr r10 instruction was left over from when the code used LR to
branch to system_call_entry from the exception handler. That was
changed by commit 6a404806df ("powerpc: Avoid link stack corruption in
MMU on syscall entry path") to use the count register. The value is
never used now, so mflr can be removed, and r10 can be used for storage
rather than spilling to the SPR scratch register.
The scratch register spill causes a long pipeline stall due to the SPR
read after write. This change brings getppid syscall cost from 406 to
376 cycles on POWER8. getppid for non-relocatable case is 371 cycles.

For hugetlb to work with 4K page size, we need MAX_ORDER to be 13 or
more. When switching from a 64K page size to 4K linux page size using
make oldconfig, we end up with a CONFIG_FORCE_MAX_ZONEORDER value of 9.
This results in a 16M hugepage beiing considered as a gigantic huge page
which in turn results in failure to setup hugepages if gigantic hugepage
support is not enabled.
This also results in kernel crash with 4K radix configuration. We
hit the below BUG_ON on radix:

Add some documentation for the 64-bit syscall ABI, which doesn't seem
to be documented elsewhere.
This attempts to document existing practice. The only small discrepancy
is glibc clobbers not quite matching the kernel (e.g., xer, some
vsyscalls trash cr1 whereas glibc only clobbers cr0). These will be
resolved after this document is merged.

This series series has a fix from Roi to memory corruption bug in
the bulk flow counters code and two late and hopefully last fixes
from me to the new eswitch offloads code.

E-switch mode changes involve creating HW tables, potentially allocating
netdevices, etc, and things can fail. Add an attempt to rollback to the
existing mode when changing to the new mode fails. Only if rollback fails,
getting proper SRIOV functionality requires module unload or sriov
disablement/enablement.

When enablement of the SRIOV e-switch in certain mode (switchdev or legacy)
fails, we must set the mode to none. Otherwise, we'll run into double free
based crashes when further attempting to deal with the e-switch (such
as when disabling sriov or unloading the driver).

The FW command output length should be only the length of struct
mlx5_cmd_fc_bulk out field. Failing to do so will cause the memcpy
call which is invoked later in the driver to write over wrong memory
address and corrupt kernel memory which results in random crashes.
This bug was found using the kernel address sanitizer (kasan).

Sample use case of how this is encoded:
user space via tuntap (or a connected VM/Machine/container)
encodes the tcindex TLV.
Sample use case of decoding:
IFE action decodes it and the skb->tc_index is then used to classify.
So something like this for encoded ICMP packets:
.. first decode then reclassify... skb->tcindex will be set
sudo $TC filter add dev $ETH parent ffff: prio 2 protocol 0xbeef \
u32 match u32 0 0 flowid 1:1 \
action ife decode reclassify
...next match the decode icmp packet...
sudo $TC filter add dev $ETH parent ffff: prio 4 protocol ip \
u32 match ip protocol 1 0xff flowid 1:1 \
action continue
... last classify it using the tcindex classifier and do someaction..
sudo $TC filter add dev $ETH parent ffff: prio 5 protocol ip \
handle 0x11 tcindex classid 1:1 \
action blah..
