2017-09-15sctp: do not mark sk dumped when inet_sctp_diag_fill returns errXin Long
sctp_diag would not actually dump out sk/asoc if inet_sctp_diag_fill returns err, in which case it shouldn't mark sk dumped by setting cb->args[3] as 1 in sctp_sock_dump(). Otherwise, it could cause some asocs to have no parent's sk dumped in 'ss --sctp'. So this patch is to not set cb->args[3] when inet_sctp_diag_fill() returns err in sctp_sock_dump().

2017-09-15sctp: fix an use-after-free issue in sctp_sock_dumpXin Long
Commit 86fdb3448cc1 ("sctp: ensure ep is not destroyed before doing the dump") tried to fix an use-after-free issue by checking !sctp_sk(sk)->ep with holding sock and sock lock. But Paolo noticed that endpoint could be destroyed in sctp_rcv without sock lock protection. It means the use-after-free issue still could be triggered when sctp_rcv put and destroy ep after sctp_sock_dump checks !ep, although it's pretty hard to reproduce. I could reproduce it by mdelay in sctp_rcv while msleep in sctp_close and sctp_sock_dump long time. This patch is to add another param cb_done to sctp_for_each_transport and dump ep->assocs with holding tsp after jumping out of transport's traversal in it to avoid this issue. It can also improve sctp diag dump to make it run faster, as no need to save sk into cb->args[5] and keep calling sctp_for_each_transport any more. This patch is also to use int * instead of int for the pos argument in sctp_for_each_transport, which could make postion increment only in sctp_for_each_transport and no need to keep changing cb->args[2] in sctp_sock_filter and sctp_sock_dump any more.

2017-09-15tcp: update skb->skb_mstamp more carefullyEric Dumazet
liujian reported a problem in TCP_USER_TIMEOUT processing with a patch in tcp_probe_timer() : https://www.spinics.net/lists/netdev/msg454496.html After investigations, the root cause of the problem is that we update skb->skb_mstamp of skbs in write queue, even if the attempt to send a clone or copy of it failed. One reason being a routing problem. This patch prevents this, solving liujian issue. It also removes a potential RTT miscalculation, since __tcp_retransmit_skb() is not OR-ing TCP_SKB_CB(skb)->sacked with TCPCB_EVER_RETRANS if a failure happens, but skb->skb_mstamp has been changed. A future ACK would then lead to a very small RTT sample and min_rtt would then be lowered to this too small value.

rt_iif is only set to the actual egress device for the output path. The recent change to consider the l3slave flag when returning IP_PKTINFO works for local traffic (the correct device index is returned), but it broke the more typical use case of packets received from a remote host always returning the VRF index rather than the original ingress device.

2017-09-15net: smsc911x: Quieten netif during suspendGeert Uytterhoeven
If the network interface is kept running during suspend, the net core may call net_device_ops.ndo_start_xmit() while the Ethernet device is still suspended, which may lead to a system crash. E.g. on sh73a0/kzm9g and r8a73a4/ape6evm, the external Ethernet chip is driven by a PM controlled clock. If the Ethernet registers are accessed while the clock is not running, the system will crash with an imprecise external abort. As this is a race condition with a small time window, it is not so easy to trigger at will. Using pm_test may increase your chances: # echo 0 > /sys/module/printk/parameters/console_suspend # echo platform > /sys/power/pm_test # echo mem > /sys/power/state To fix this, make sure the network interface is quietened during suspend.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/driver-core Pull firmware removal from Greg KH: "Many many years ago (at the kernel summit in Boston), we all came to the agreement that the firmware/ tree should be dropped from the kernel, and everyone use the linux-firmware package instead. For some minor reason, David Woodhouse didn't send the pull request at that point in time, and everyone forgot about this. The topic came up in the hallway track at the Plumbers conference this week, so here's a single patch that drops the whole firmware tree. The last firmware update was back in 2013, and all distros have been using linux-firmware instead since at least that year, if not before. The only commits to that directory since 2013 was some kbuild fixups for various build tool issues. So lets finally drop this, we don't need to lug them around in the kernel source tree anymore, especially as no one wants or uses them. This has passed build testing with 0-day, I don't think it made it into linux-next this week, but I figured it was good to get in before 4.14-rc1 was out" * tag 'firmware_removal-4.14-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/driver-core: firmware: delete in-kernel firmware

2017-09-15kvm: nVMX: Handle deferred early VMLAUNCH/VMRESUME failure properlyJim Mattson
When emulating a nested VM-entry from L1 to L2, several control field validation checks are deferred to the hardware. Should one of these validation checks fail, vcpu_vmx_run will set the vmx->fail flag. When this happens, the L2 guest state is not loaded (even in part), and execution should continue in L1 with the next instruction after the VMLAUNCH/VMRESUME. The VMCS12 is not modified (except for the VM-instruction error field), the VMCS12 MSR save/load lists are not processed, and the CPU state is not loaded from the VMCS12 host area. Moreover, the vmcs02 exit reason is stale, so it should not be consulted for any reason. Signed-off-by: Jim Mattson <jmattson@google.com> Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>

On an early VMLAUNCH/VMRESUME failure (i.e. one which sets the VM-instruction error field of the current VMCS), the launch state of the current VMCS is not set to "launched," and the VM-exit information fields of the current VMCS (including IDT-vectoring information and exit reason) are stale. On a late VMLAUNCH/VMRESUME failure (i.e. one which sets the high bit of the exit reason field), the launch state of the current VMCS is not set to "launched," and only two of the VM-exit information fields of the current VMCS are modified (exit reason and exit qualification). The remaining VM-exit information fields of the current VMCS (including IDT-vectoring information, in particular) are stale.

2017-09-15KVM: VMX: Do not BUG() on out-of-bounds guest IRQJan H. Schönherr
The value of the guest_irq argument to vmx_update_pi_irte() is ultimately coming from a KVM_IRQFD API call. Do not BUG() in vmx_update_pi_irte() if the value is out-of bounds. (Especially, since KVM as a whole seems to hang after that.) Instead, print a message only once if we find that we don't have a route for a certain IRQ (which can be out-of-bounds or within the array). This fixes CVE-2017-1000252.

After talking with Dave Sterba, Herbert and Phillip, we decided to send the whole thing in as one pull request. zstd is a big win in speed over zlib and in compression ratio over lzo, and the compression team here at FB has gotten great results using it in production. Nick will continue to update the kernel side with new improvements from the open source zstd userland code. Nick has a number of benchmarks for the main zstd code in his lib/zstd commit: I ran the benchmarks on a Ubuntu 14.04 VM with 2 cores and 4 GiB of RAM. The VM is running on a MacBook Pro with a 3.1 GHz Intel Core i7 processor, 16 GB of RAM, and a SSD. I benchmarked using `silesia.tar` [3], which is 211,988,480 B large. Run the following commands for the benchmark: sudo modprobe zstd_compress_test sudo mknod zstd_compress_test c 245 0 sudo cp silesia.tar zstd_compress_test The time is reported by the time of the userland `cp`. The MB/s is computed with 1,536,217,008 B / time(buffer size, hash) which includes the time to copy from userland. The Adjusted MB/s is computed with 1,536,217,088 B / (time(buffer size, hash) - time(buffer size, none)). The memory reported is the amount of memory the compressor requests. | Method | Size (B) | Time (s) | Ratio | MB/s | Adj MB/s | Mem (MB) | |----------|----------|----------|-------|---------|----------|----------| | none | 11988480 | 0.100 | 1 | 2119.88 | - | - | | zstd -1 | 73645762 | 1.044 | 2.878 | 203.05 | 224.56 | 1.23 | | zstd -3 | 66988878 | 1.761 | 3.165 | 120.38 | 127.63 | 2.47 | | zstd -5 | 65001259 | 2.563 | 3.261 | 82.71 | 86.07 | 2.86 | | zstd -10 | 60165346 | 13.242 | 3.523 | 16.01 | 16.13 | 13.22 | | zstd -15 | 58009756 | 47.601 | 3.654 | 4.45 | 4.46 | 21.61 | | zstd -19 | 54014593 | 102.835 | 3.925 | 2.06 | 2.06 | 60.15 | | zlib -1 | 77260026 | 2.895 | 2.744 | 73.23 | 75.85 | 0.27 | | zlib -3 | 72972206 | 4.116 | 2.905 | 51.50 | 52.79 | 0.27 | | zlib -6 | 68190360 | 9.633 | 3.109 | 22.01 | 22.24 | 0.27 | | zlib -9 | 67613382 | 22.554 | 3.135 | 9.40 | 9.44 | 0.27 | I benchmarked zstd decompression using the same method on the same machine.
