Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.

After commit 73b62bd085f4737679ea9afc7867fa5f99ba7d1b ("virtio-net:
remove the warning before XDP linearizing"), there's no users for
bpf_warn_invalid_xdp_buffer(), so remove it. This is a revert for
commit f23bc46c30ca5ef58b8549434899fcbac41b2cfc.

Networking stack accelerate vlan tag handling by
keeping topmost vlan header in skb. This works as
long as packet remains in OVS datapath. But during
OVS upcall vlan header is pushed on to the packet.
When such packet is sent back to OVS datapath, core
networking stack might not handle it correctly. Following
patch avoids this issue by accelerating the vlan tag
during flow key extract. This simplifies datapath by
bringing uniform packet processing for packets from
all code paths.

Different namespaces might have different requirements to reuse
TIME-WAIT sockets for new connections. This might be required in
cases where different namespace applications are in place which
require TIME_WAIT socket connections to be reduced independently
of the host.

Commit beb0babfb77e ("korina: disable napi on close and restart")
introduced calls to napi_disable() that were missing before,
unfortunately this leaves a small window during which NAPI has a chance
to run, yet we just freed resources since korina_free_ring() has been
called:
Fix this by disabling NAPI first then freeing resource, and make sure
that we also cancel the restart task before doing the resource freeing.

Shahar reported a soft lockup in tc_classify(), where we run into an
endless loop when walking the classifier chain due to tp->next == tp
which is a state we should never run into. The issue only seems to
trigger under load in the tc control path.
What happens is that in tc_ctl_tfilter(), thread A allocates a new
tp, initializes it, sets tp_created to 1, and calls into tp->ops->change()
with it. In that classifier callback we had to unlock/lock the rtnl
mutex and returned with -EAGAIN. One reason why we need to drop there
is, for example, that we need to request an action module to be loaded.
This happens via tcf_exts_validate() -> tcf_action_init/_1() meaning
after we loaded and found the requested action, we need to redo the
whole request so we don't race against others. While we had to unlock
rtnl in that time, thread B's request was processed next on that CPU.
Thread B added a new tp instance successfully to the classifier chain.
When thread A returned grabbing the rtnl mutex again, propagating -EAGAIN
and destroying its tp instance which never got linked, we goto replay
and redo A's request.
This time when walking the classifier chain in tc_ctl_tfilter() for
checking for existing tp instances we had a priority match and found
the tp instance that was created and linked by thread B. Now calling
again into tp->ops->change() with that tp was successful and returned
without error.
tp_created was never cleared in the second round, thus kernel thinks
that we need to link it into the classifier chain (once again). tp and
*back point to the same object due to the match we had earlier on. Thus
for thread B's already public tp, we reset tp->next to tp itself and
link it into the chain, which eventually causes the mentioned endless
loop in tc_classify() once a packet hits the data path.
Fix is to clear tp_created at the beginning of each request, also when
we replay it. On the paths that can cause -EAGAIN we already destroy
the original tp instance we had and on replay we really need to start
from scratch. It seems that this issue was first introduced in commit
12186be7d2e1 ("net_cls: fix unconfigured struct tcf_proto keeps chaining
and avoid kernel panic when we use cls_cgroup").

The user prio field is wrong (and overflows) in the XDP forward
flow.
This is a result of a bad value for num_tx_rings_p_up, which should
account all XDP TX rings, as they operate for the same user prio.

In commit 6f00089c7372 ("tipc: remove SS_DISCONNECTING state") the
check for socket type is in the wrong place, causing a closing socket
to always send out a FIN message even when the socket was never
connected. This is normally harmless, since the destination node for
such messages most often is zero, and the message will be dropped, but
it is still a wrong and confusing behavior.
We fix this in this commit.

In an IPvlan setup when master is set in loopback mode e.g.
ethtool -K eth0 set loopback on
where eth0 is master device for IPvlan setup.
The failure is caused by the faulty logic that determines if the
packet is from TX-path vs. RX-path by just looking at the mac-
addresses on the packet while processing multicast packets.
In the loopback-mode where this crash was happening, the packets
that are sent out are reflected by the NIC and are processed on
the RX path, but mac-address check tricks into thinking this
packet is from TX path and falsely uses dev_forward_skb() to pass
packets to the slave (virtual) devices.
This patch records the path while queueing packets and eliminates
logic of looking at mac-addresses for the same decision.

context.
2) ipvlan_count_rx() should be called with preemption disabled.
3) We should check if ipvlan->dev is up before feeding packets
to netif_rx()
4) We need to prevent device from disappearing if some packets
are in the multicast backlog.
5) One kfree_skb() should be a consume_skb() eventually

Currently if SCTP closes the receive window with window pressure, mostly
caused by excessive skb overhead on payload/overheads ratio, SCTP will
close the window abruptly while saving the delta on rwnd_press. It will
start recovering rwnd as the chunks are consumed by the application and
the rwnd_press will be only recovered after rwnd reach the same value as
of rwnd_press, mostly to prevent silly window syndrome.
Thing is, this is very inefficient with small data chunks, as with those
it will never reach back that value, and thus it will never recover from
such pressure. This means that we will not issue window updates when
recovering from 0 window and will rely on a sender retransmit to notice
it.
The fix here is to remove such threshold, as no value is good enough: it
depends on the (avg) chunk sizes being used.
Test with netperf -t SCTP_STREAM -- -m 1, and trigger 0 window by
sending SIGSTOP to netserver, sleep 1.2, and SIGCONT.
Rate limited to 845kbps, for visibility. Capture done at netserver side.
