net: dsa: improve shutdown sequence

2026-03-25T10:03:18+00:00

[ Upstream commit 6c24a03a61a245fe34d47582898331fa034b6ccd ] Alexander Sverdlin presents 2 problems during shutdown with the lan9303 driver. One is specific to lan9303 and the other just happens to reproduce there. The first problem is that lan9303 is unique among DSA drivers in that it calls dev_get_drvdata() at "arbitrary runtime" (not probe, not shutdown, not remove): phy_state_machine() -> ... -> dsa_user_phy_read() -> ds->ops->phy_read() -> lan9303_phy_read() -> chip->ops->phy_read() -> lan9303_mdio_phy_read() -> dev_get_drvdata() But we never stop the phy_state_machine(), so it may continue to run after dsa_switch_shutdown(). Our common pattern in all DSA drivers is to set drvdata to NULL to suppress the remove() method that may come afterwards. But in this case it will result in an NPD. The second problem is that the way in which we set dp->master->dsa_ptr = NULL; is concurrent with receive packet processing. dsa_switch_rcv() checks once whether dev->dsa_ptr is NULL, but afterwards, rather than continuing to use that non-NULL value, dev->dsa_ptr is dereferenced again and again without NULL checks: dsa_master_find_slave() and many other places. In between dereferences, there is no locking to ensure that what was valid once continues to be valid. Both problems have the common aspect that closing the master interface solves them. In the first case, dev_close(master) triggers the NETDEV_GOING_DOWN event in dsa_slave_netdevice_event() which closes slave ports as well. dsa_port_disable_rt() calls phylink_stop(), which synchronously stops the phylink state machine, and ds->ops->phy_read() will thus no longer call into the driver after this point. In the second case, dev_close(master) should do this, as per Documentation/networking/driver.rst: | Quiescence | ---------- | | After the ndo_stop routine has been called, the hardware must | not receive or transmit any data. All in flight packets must | be aborted. If necessary, poll or wait for completion of | any reset commands. So it should be sufficient to ensure that later, when we zeroize master->dsa_ptr, there will be no concurrent dsa_switch_rcv() call on this master. The addition of the netif_device_detach() function is to ensure that ioctls, rtnetlinks and ethtool requests on the slave ports no longer propagate down to the driver - we're no longer prepared to handle them. The race condition actually did not exist when commit 0650bf52b31f ("net: dsa: be compatible with masters which unregister on shutdown") first introduced dsa_switch_shutdown(). It was created later, when we stopped unregistering the slave interfaces from a bad spot, and we just replaced that sequence with a racy zeroization of master->dsa_ptr (one which doesn't ensure that the interfaces aren't up).

net: dsa: free routing table on probe failure

2026-02-19T15:25:20+00:00

[ Upstream commit 8bf108d7161ffc6880ad13a0cc109de3cf631727 ] If complete = true in dsa_tree_setup(), it means that we are the last switch of the tree which is successfully probing, and we should be setting up all switches from our probe path. After "complete" becomes true, dsa_tree_setup_cpu_ports() or any subsequent function may fail. If that happens, the entire tree setup is in limbo: the first N-1 switches have successfully finished probing (doing nothing but having allocated persistent memory in the tree's dst->ports, and maybe dst->rtable), and switch N failed to probe, ending the tree setup process before anything is tangible from the user's PoV. If switch N fails to probe, its memory (ports) will be freed and removed from dst->ports. However, the dst->rtable elements pointing to its ports, as created by dsa_link_touch(), will remain there, and will lead to use-after-free if dereferenced. If dsa_tree_setup_switches() returns -EPROBE_DEFER, which is entirely possible because that is where ds->ops->setup() is, we get a kasan report like this: ================================================================== BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in mv88e6xxx_setup_upstream_port+0x240/0x568 Read of size 8 at addr ffff000004f56020 by task kworker/u8:3/42 Call trace: __asan_report_load8_noabort+0x20/0x30 mv88e6xxx_setup_upstream_port+0x240/0x568 mv88e6xxx_setup+0xebc/0x1eb0 dsa_register_switch+0x1af4/0x2ae0 mv88e6xxx_register_switch+0x1b8/0x2a8 mv88e6xxx_probe+0xc4c/0xf60 mdio_probe+0x78/0xb8 really_probe+0x2b8/0x5a8 __driver_probe_device+0x164/0x298 driver_probe_device+0x78/0x258 __device_attach_driver+0x274/0x350 Allocated by task 42: __kasan_kmalloc+0x84/0xa0 __kmalloc_cache_noprof+0x298/0x490 dsa_switch_touch_ports+0x174/0x3d8 dsa_register_switch+0x800/0x2ae0 mv88e6xxx_register_switch+0x1b8/0x2a8 mv88e6xxx_probe+0xc4c/0xf60 mdio_probe+0x78/0xb8 really_probe+0x2b8/0x5a8 __driver_probe_device+0x164/0x298 driver_probe_device+0x78/0x258 __device_attach_driver+0x274/0x350 Freed by task 42: __kasan_slab_free+0x48/0x68 kfree+0x138/0x418 dsa_register_switch+0x2694/0x2ae0 mv88e6xxx_register_switch+0x1b8/0x2a8 mv88e6xxx_probe+0xc4c/0xf60 mdio_probe+0x78/0xb8 really_probe+0x2b8/0x5a8 __driver_probe_device+0x164/0x298 driver_probe_device+0x78/0x258 __device_attach_driver+0x274/0x350 The simplest way to fix the bug is to delete the routing table in its entirety. dsa_tree_setup_routing_table() has no problem in regenerating it even if we deleted links between ports other than those of switch N, because dsa_link_touch() first checks whether the port pair already exists in dst->rtable, allocating if not. The deletion of the routing table in its entirety already exists in dsa_tree_teardown(), so refactor that into a function that can also be called from the tree setup error path. In my analysis of the commit to blame, it is the one which added dsa_link elements to dst->rtable. Prior to that, each switch had its own ds->rtable which is freed when the switch fails to probe. But the tree is potentially persistent memory.

2025-12-06T21:12:29+00:00

[ Upstream commit 3d18a84eddde169d6dbf3c72cc5358b988c347d0 ] The internal switch on BCM63XX SoCs will unconditionally add 802.1Q VLAN tags on egress to CPU when 802.1Q mode is enabled. We do this unconditionally since commit ed409f3bbaa5 ("net: dsa: b53: Configure VLANs while not filtering"). This is fine for VLAN aware bridges, but for standalone ports and vlan unaware bridges this means all packets are tagged with the default VID, which is 0. While the kernel will treat that like untagged, this can break userspace applications processing raw packets, expecting untagged traffic, like STP daemons. This also breaks several bridge tests, where the tcpdump output then does not match the expected output anymore. Since 0 isn't a valid VID, just strip out the VLAN tag if we encounter it, unless the priority field is set, since that would be a valid tag again.

net: dsa: fix netdev_priv() dereference before check on non-DSA netdevice events

2025-02-21T12:50:11+00:00

commit 844f104790bd69c2e4dbb9ee3eba46fde1fcea7b upstream. After the blamed commit, we started doing this dereference for every NETDEV_CHANGEUPPER and NETDEV_PRECHANGEUPPER event in the system. static inline struct dsa_port *dsa_user_to_port(const struct net_device *dev) { struct dsa_user_priv *p = netdev_priv(dev); return p->dp; } Which is obviously bogus, because not all net_devices have a netdev_priv() of type struct dsa_user_priv. But struct dsa_user_priv is fairly small, and p->dp means dereferencing 8 bytes starting with offset 16. Most drivers allocate that much private memory anyway, making our access not fault, and we discard the bogus data quickly afterwards, so this wasn't caught. But the dummy interface is somewhat special in that it calls alloc_netdev() with a priv size of 0. So every netdev_priv() dereference is invalid, and we get this when we emit a NETDEV_PRECHANGEUPPER event with a VLAN as its new upper: $ ip link add dummy1 type dummy $ ip link add link dummy1 name dummy1.100 type vlan id 100 [ 43.309174] ================================================================== [ 43.316456] BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in dsa_user_prechangeupper+0x30/0xe8 [ 43.323835] Read of size 8 at addr ffff3f86481d2990 by task ip/374 [ 43.330058] [ 43.342436] Call trace: [ 43.366542] dsa_user_prechangeupper+0x30/0xe8 [ 43.371024] dsa_user_netdevice_event+0xb38/0xee8 [ 43.375768] notifier_call_chain+0xa4/0x210 [ 43.379985] raw_notifier_call_chain+0x24/0x38 [ 43.384464] __netdev_upper_dev_link+0x3ec/0x5d8 [ 43.389120] netdev_upper_dev_link+0x70/0xa8 [ 43.393424] register_vlan_dev+0x1bc/0x310 [ 43.397554] vlan_newlink+0x210/0x248 [ 43.401247] rtnl_newlink+0x9fc/0xe30 [ 43.404942] rtnetlink_rcv_msg+0x378/0x580 Avoid the kernel oops by dereferencing after the type check, as customary.

net: mscc: ocelot: use ocelot_xmit_get_vlan_info() also for FDMA and register injection

2024-08-29T15:30:43+00:00

[ Upstream commit 67c3ca2c5cfe6a50772514e3349b5e7b3b0fac03 ] Problem description ------------------- On an NXP LS1028A (felix DSA driver) with the following configuration: - ocelot-8021q tagging protocol - VLAN-aware bridge (with STP) spanning at least swp0 and swp1 - 8021q VLAN upper interfaces on swp0 and swp1: swp0.700, swp1.700 - ptp4l on swp0.700 and swp1.700 we see that the ptp4l instances do not see each other's traffic, and they all go to the grand master state due to the ANNOUNCE_RECEIPT_TIMEOUT_EXPIRES condition. Jumping to the conclusion for the impatient ------------------------------------------- There is a zero-day bug in the ocelot switchdev driver in the way it handles VLAN-tagged packet injection. The correct logic already exists in the source code, in function ocelot_xmit_get_vlan_info() added by commit 5ca721c54d86 ("net: dsa: tag_ocelot: set the classified VLAN during xmit"). But it is used only for normal NPI-based injection with the DSA "ocelot" tagging protocol. The other injection code paths (register-based and FDMA-based) roll their own wrong logic. This affects and was noticed on the DSA "ocelot-8021q" protocol because it uses register-based injection. By moving ocelot_xmit_get_vlan_info() to a place that's common for both the DSA tagger and the ocelot switch library, it can also be called from ocelot_port_inject_frame() in ocelot.c. We need to touch the lines with ocelot_ifh_port_set()'s prototype anyway, so let's rename it to something clearer regarding what it does, and add a kernel-doc. ocelot_ifh_set_basic() should do. Investigation notes ------------------- Debugging reveals that PTP event (aka those carrying timestamps, like Sync) frames injected into swp0.700 (but also swp1.700) hit the wire with two VLAN tags: 00000000: 01 1b 19 00 00 00 00 01 02 03 04 05 81 00 02 bc ~~~~~~~~~~~ 00000010: 81 00 02 bc 88 f7 00 12 00 2c 00 00 02 00 00 00 ~~~~~~~~~~~ 00000020: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 01 02 ff fe 03 00000030: 04 05 00 01 00 04 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00000040: 00 00 The second (unexpected) VLAN tag makes felix_check_xtr_pkt() -> ptp_classify_raw() fail to see these as PTP packets at the link partner's receiving end, and return PTP_CLASS_NONE (because the BPF classifier is not written to expect 2 VLAN tags). The reason why packets have 2 VLAN tags is because the transmission code treats VLAN incorrectly. Neither ocelot switchdev, nor felix DSA, declare the NETIF_F_HW_VLAN_CTAG_TX feature. Therefore, at xmit time, all VLANs should be in the skb head, and none should be in the hwaccel area. This is done by: static struct sk_buff *validate_xmit_vlan(struct sk_buff *skb, netdev_features_t features) { if (skb_vlan_tag_present(skb) && !vlan_hw_offload_capable(features, skb->vlan_proto)) skb = __vlan_hwaccel_push_inside(skb); return skb; } But ocelot_port_inject_frame() handles things incorrectly: ocelot_ifh_port_set(ifh, port, rew_op, skb_vlan_tag_get(skb)); void ocelot_ifh_port_set(struct sk_buff *skb, void *ifh, int port, u32 rew_op) { (...) if (vlan_tag) ocelot_ifh_set_vlan_tci(ifh, vlan_tag); (...) } The way __vlan_hwaccel_push_inside() pushes the tag inside the skb head is by calling: static inline void __vlan_hwaccel_clear_tag(struct sk_buff *skb) { skb->vlan_present = 0; } which does _not_ zero out skb->vlan_tci as seen by skb_vlan_tag_get(). This means that ocelot, when it calls skb_vlan_tag_get(), sees (and uses) a residual skb->vlan_tci, while the same VLAN tag is _already_ in the skb head. The trivial fix for double VLAN headers is to replace the content of ocelot_ifh_port_set() with: if (skb_vlan_tag_present(skb)) ocelot_ifh_set_vlan_tci(ifh, skb_vlan_tag_get(skb)); but this would not be correct either, because, as mentioned, vlan_hw_offload_capable() is false for us, so we'd be inserting dead code and we'd always transmit packets with VID=0 in the injection frame header. I can't actually test the ocelot switchdev driver and rely exclusively on code inspection, but I don't think traffic from 8021q uppers has ever been injected properly, and not double-tagged. Thus I'm blaming the introduction of VLAN fields in the injection header - early driver code. As hinted at in the early conclusion, what we _want_ to happen for VLAN transmission was already described once in commit 5ca721c54d86 ("net: dsa: tag_ocelot: set the classified VLAN during xmit"). ocelot_xmit_get_vlan_info() intends to ensure that if the port through which we're transmitting is under a VLAN-aware bridge, the outer VLAN tag from the skb head is stripped from there and inserted into the injection frame header (so that the packet is processed in hardware through that actual VLAN). And in all other cases, the packet is sent with VID=0 in the injection frame header, since the port is VLAN-unaware and has logic to strip this VID on egress (making it invisible to the wire).
