timers: Reinitialize per cpu bases on hotplug

2018-01-02T19:31:15+00:00

commit 26456f87aca7157c057de65c9414b37f1ab881d1 upstream. The timer wheel bases are not (re)initialized on CPU hotplug. That leaves them with a potentially stale clk and next_expiry valuem, which can cause trouble then the CPU is plugged. Add a prepare callback which forwards the clock, sets next_expiry to far in the future and reset the control flags to a known state. Set base->must_forward_clk so the first timer which is queued will try to forward the clock to current jiffies. Fixes: 500462a9de65 ("timers: Switch to a non-cascading wheel") Reported-by: Paul E.

Revert "mlx5: move affinity hints assignments to generic code"

2018-01-02T19:31:13+00:00

[ Upstream commit 231243c82793428467524227ae02ca451e6a98e7 ] Before the offending commit, mlx5 core did the IRQ affinity itself, and it seems that the new generic code have some drawbacks and one of them is the lack for user ability to modify irq affinity after the initial affinity values got assigned. The issue is still being discussed and a solution in the new generic code is required, until then we need to revert this patch. This fixes the following issue: echo > /proc/irq//smp_affinity fails with -EIO This reverts commit a435393acafbf0ecff4deb3e3cb554b34f0d0664. Note: kept mlx5_get_vector_affinity in include/linux/mlx5/driver.h since it is used in mlx5_ib driver.

net/mlx5: Fix rate limit packet pacing naming and struct

2018-01-02T19:31:09+00:00

[ Upstream commit 37e92a9d4fe38dc3e7308913575983a6a088c8d4 ] In mlx5_ifc, struct size was not complete, and thus driver was sending garbage after the last defined field. Fixed it by adding reserved field to complete the struct size. In addition, rename all set_rate_limit to set_pp_rate_limit to be compliant with the Firmware <-> Driver definition.

tcp: invalidate rate samples during SACK reneging

2018-01-02T19:31:09+00:00

[ Upstream commit d4761754b4fb2ef8d9a1e9d121c4bec84e1fe292 ] Mark tcp_sock during a SACK reneging event and invalidate rate samples while marked. Such rate samples may overestimate bw by including packets that were SACKed before reneging. < ack 6001 win 10000 sack 7001:38001 < ack 7001 win 0 sack 8001:38001 // Reneg detected > seq 7001:8001 // RTO, SACK cleared. < ack 38001 win 10000 In above example the rate sample taken after the last ack will count 7001-38001 as delivered while the actual delivery rate likely could be much lower i.e. 7001-8001. This patch adds a new field tcp_sock.sack_reneg and marks it when we declare SACK reneging and entering TCP_CA_Loss, and unmarks it after the last rate sample was taken before moving back to TCP_CA_Open. This patch also invalidates rate samples taken while tcp_sock.is_sack_reneg is set.

ptr_ring: add barriers

2018-01-02T19:31:07+00:00

[ Upstream commit a8ceb5dbfde1092b466936bca0ff3be127ecf38e ] Users of ptr_ring expect that it's safe to give the data structure a pointer and have it be available to consumers, but that actually requires an smb_wmb or a stronger barrier. In absence of such barriers and on architectures that reorder writes, consumer might read an un=initialized value from an skb pointer stored in the skb array. This was observed causing crashes. To fix, add memory barriers. The barrier we use is a wmb, the assumption being that producers do not need to read the value so we do not need to order these reads.

net: reevalulate autoflowlabel setting after sysctl setting

2018-01-02T19:31:06+00:00

[ Upstream commit 513674b5a2c9c7a67501506419da5c3c77ac6f08 ] sysctl.ip6.auto_flowlabels is default 1. In our hosts, we set it to 2. If sockopt doesn't set autoflowlabel, outcome packets from the hosts are supposed to not include flowlabel. This is true for normal packet, but not for reset packet. The reason is ipv6_pinfo.autoflowlabel is set in sock creation. Later if we change sysctl.ip6.auto_flowlabels, the ipv6_pinfo.autoflowlabel isn't changed, so the sock will keep the old behavior in terms of auto flowlabel. Reset packet is suffering from this problem, because reset packet is sent from a special control socket, which is created at boot time. Since sysctl.ipv6.auto_flowlabels is 1 by default, the control socket will always have its ipv6_pinfo.autoflowlabel set, even after user set sysctl.ipv6.auto_flowlabels to 1, so reset packset will always have flowlabel. Normal sock created before sysctl setting suffers from the same issue. We can't even turn off autoflowlabel unless we kill all socks in the hosts. To fix this, if IPV6_AUTOFLOWLABEL sockopt is used, we use the autoflowlabel setting from user, otherwise we always call ip6_default_np_autolabel() which has the new settings of sysctl. Note, this changes behavior a little bit. Before commit 42240901f7c4 (ipv6: Implement different admin modes for automatic flow labels), the autoflowlabel behavior of a sock isn't sticky, eg, if sysctl changes, existing connection will change autoflowlabel behavior. After that commit, autoflowlabel behavior is sticky in the whole life of the sock. With this patch, the behavior isn't sticky again.

block: don't let passthrough IO go into .make_request_fn()

2018-01-02T19:31:05+00:00

commit 14cb0dc6479dc5ebc63b3a459a5d89a2f1b39fed upstream. Commit a8821f3f3("block: Improvements to bounce-buffer handling") tries to make sure that the bio to .make_request_fn won't exceed BIO_MAX_PAGES, but ignores that passthrough I/O can use blk_queue_bounce() too. Especially, passthrough IO may not be sector-aligned, and the check of 'sectors < bio_sectors(*bio_orig)' inside __blk_queue_bounce() may become true even though the max bvec number doesn't exceed BIO_MAX_PAGES, then cause the bio splitted, and the original passthrough bio is submited to generic_make_request(). This patch fixes this issue by checking if the bio is passthrough IO, and use bio_kmalloc() to allocate the cloned passthrough bio.

cpufreq: schedutil: Use idle_calls counter of the remote CPU

commit 466a2b42d67644447a1765276259a3ea5531ddff upstream. Since the recent remote cpufreq callback work, its possible that a cpufreq update is triggered from a remote CPU. For single policies however, the current code uses the local CPU when trying to determine if the remote sg_cpu entered idle or is busy. This is incorrect. To remedy this, compare with the nohz tick idle_calls counter of the remote CPU.
