ibmvnic: Add tx check to prevent skb leak

2024-07-25T07:53:35+00:00

[ Upstream commit 0983d288caf984de0202c66641577b739caad561 ] Below is a summary of how the driver stores a reference to an skb during transmit: tx_buff[free_map[consumer_index]]->skb = new_skb; free_map[consumer_index] = IBMVNIC_INVALID_MAP; consumer_index ++; Where variable data looks like this: free_map == [4, IBMVNIC_INVALID_MAP, IBMVNIC_INVALID_MAP, 0, 3] consumer_index^ tx_buff == [skb=null, skb=, skb=, skb=null, skb=null] The driver has checks to ensure that free_map[consumer_index] pointed to a valid index but there was no check to ensure that this index pointed to an unused/null skb address. So, if, by some chance, our free_map and tx_buff lists become out of sync then we were previously risking an skb memory leak. This could then cause tcp congestion control to stop sending packets, eventually leading to ETIMEDOUT. Therefore, add a conditional to ensure that the skb address is null. If not then warn the user (because this is still a bug that should be patched) and free the old pointer to prevent memleak/tcp problems.

ibmvnic: Free any outstanding tx skbs during scrq reset

2024-07-05T07:37:53+00:00

[ Upstream commit 49bbeb5719c2f56907d3a9623b47c6c15c2c431d ] There are 2 types of outstanding tx skb's: Type 1: Packets that are sitting in the drivers ind_buff that are waiting to be batch sent to the NIC. During a device reset, these are freed with a call to ibmvnic_tx_scrq_clean_buffer() Type 2: Packets that have been sent to the NIC and are awaiting a TX completion IRQ. These are free'd during a reset with a call to clean_tx_pools() During any reset which requires us to free the tx irq, ensure that the Type 2 skb references are freed. Since the irq is released, it is impossible for the NIC to inform of any completions. Furthermore, later in the reset process is a call to init_tx_pools() which marks every entry in the tx pool as free (ie not outstanding). So if the driver is to make a call to init_tx_pools(), it must first be sure that the tx pool is empty of skb references. This issue was discovered by observing the following in the logs during EEH testing: TX free map points to untracked skb (tso_pool 0 idx=4) TX free map points to untracked skb (tso_pool 0 idx=5) TX free map points to untracked skb (tso_pool 1 idx=36) Fixes: 65d6470d139a ("ibmvnic: clean pending indirect buffs during reset") Signed-off-by: Nick Child Signed-off-by: David S.

mm, treewide: rename MAX_ORDER to MAX_PAGE_ORDER

2024-01-08T23:27:15+00:00

commit 23baf831a32c ("mm, treewide: redefine MAX_ORDER sanely") has changed the definition of MAX_ORDER to be inclusive. This has caused issues with code that was not yet upstream and depended on the previous definition. To draw attention to the altered meaning of the define, rename MAX_ORDER to MAX_PAGE_ORDER.

ibmvnic: replace deprecated strncpy with strscpy

2023-10-13T09:18:20+00:00

`strncpy` is deprecated for use on NUL-terminated destination strings [1] and as such we should prefer more robust and less ambiguous string interfaces. NUL-padding is not required as the buffer is already memset to 0: | memset(adapter->fw_version, 0, 32); Note that another usage of strscpy exists on the same buffer: | strscpy((char *)adapter->fw_version, "N/A", sizeof(adapter->fw_version)); Considering the above, a suitable replacement is `strscpy` [2] due to the fact that it guarantees NUL-termination on the destination buffer without unnecessarily NUL-padding.

netdev: replace napi_reschedule with napi_schedule

2023-10-12T00:28:06+00:00

Now that napi_schedule return a bool, we can drop napi_reschedule that does the same exact function. The function comes from a very old commit bfe13f54f502 ("ibm_emac: Convert to use napi_struct independent of struct net_device") and the purpose is actually deprecated in favour of different logic. Convert every user of napi_reschedule to napi_schedule.

ibmveth: Remove condition to recompute TCP header checksum.

2023-10-04T10:19:57+00:00

In some OVS environments the TCP pseudo header checksum may need to be recomputed. Currently this is only done when the interface instance is configured for "Trunk Mode". We found the issue also occurs in some Kubernetes environments, these environments do not use "Trunk Mode", therefor the condition is removed. Performance tests with this change show only a fractional decrease in throughput (< 0.2%). Fixes: 7525de2516fb ("ibmveth: Set CHECKSUM_PARTIAL if NULL TCP CSUM.")

net: ethernet: ibm: Convert to platform remove callback returning void

2023-09-20T08:06:39+00:00

The .remove() callback for a platform driver returns an int which makes many driver authors wrongly assume it's possible to do error handling by returning an error code. However the value returned is ignored (apart from emitting a warning) and this typically results in resource leaks. To improve here there is a quest to make the remove callback return void. In the first step of this quest all drivers are converted to .remove_new() which already returns void. Eventually after all drivers are converted, .remove_new() is renamed to .remove(). Trivially convert these drivers from always returning zero in the remove callback to the void returning variant. Signed-off-by: Uwe Kleine-König Signed-off-by: David S. Miller
