      eventfs/tracing: Add callback for release of an eventfs_inode · b63db58e
      Steven Rostedt (Google) authored
      Synthetic events create and destroy tracefs files when they are created
      and removed. The tracing subsystem has its own file descriptor
      representing the state of the events attached to the tracefs files.
      There's a race between the eventfs files and this file descriptor of the
      tracing system where the following can cause an issue:
      
      With two scripts 'A' and 'B' doing:
      
        Script 'A':
          echo "hello int aaa" > /sys/kernel/tracing/synthetic_events
          while :
          do
            echo 0 > /sys/kernel/tracing/events/synthetic/hello/enable
          done
      
        Script 'B':
          echo > /sys/kernel/tracing/synthetic_events
      
      Script 'A' creates a synthetic event "hello" and then just writes zero
      into its enable file.
      
      Script 'B' removes all synthetic events (including the newly created
      "hello" event).
      
      What happens is that the opening of the "enable" file has:
      
       {
      	struct trace_event_file *file = inode->i_private;
      	int ret;
      
      	ret = tracing_check_open_get_tr(file->tr);
       [..]
      
      But deleting the events frees the "file" descriptor, and a "use after
      free" happens with the dereference at "file->tr".
      
      The file descriptor does have a reference counter, but there needs to be a
      way to decrement it from the eventfs when the eventfs_inode is removed
      that represents this file descriptor.
      
      Add an optional "release" callback to the eventfs_entry array structure,
      that gets called when the eventfs file is about to be removed. This allows
      for the creating on the eventfs file to increment the tracing file
      descriptor ref counter. When the eventfs file is deleted, it can call the
      release function that will call the put function for the tracing file
      descriptor.
      
      This will protect the tracing file from being freed while a eventfs file
      that references it is being opened.

      tcp: Add new args for cong_control in tcp_congestion_ops · 57bfc760
      Miao Xu authored
      
      This patch adds two new arguments for cong_control of struct
      tcp_congestion_ops:
       - ack
       - flag
      These two arguments are inherited from the caller tcp_cong_control in
      tcp_intput.c. One use case of them is to update cwnd and pacing rate
      inside cong_control based on the info they provide. For example, the
      flag can be used to decide if it is the right time to raise or reduce a
      sender's cwnd.

      net: gro: fix udp bad offset in socket lookup by adding {inner_}network_offset to napi_gro_cb · 5ef31ea5
      Richard Gobert authored
      
      Commits a6024562 ("udp: Add GRO functions to UDP socket") and 57c67ff4 ("udp:
      additional GRO support") introduce incorrect usage of {ip,ipv6}_hdr in the
      complete phase of gro. The functions always return skb->network_header,
      which in the case of encapsulated packets at the gro complete phase, is
      always set to the innermost L3 of the packet. That means that calling
      {ip,ipv6}_hdr for skbs which completed the GRO receive phase (both in
      gro_list and *_gro_complete) when parsing an encapsulated packet's _outer_
      L3/L4 may return an unexpected value.
      
      This incorrect usage leads to a bug in GRO's UDP socket lookup.
      udp{4,6}_lib_lookup_skb functions use ip_hdr/ipv6_hdr respectively. These
      *_hdr functions return network_header which will point to the innermost L3,
      resulting in the wrong offset being used in __udp{4,6}_lib_lookup with
      encapsulated packets.
      
      This patch adds network_offset and inner_network_offset to napi_gro_cb, and
      makes sure both are set correctly.
      
      To fix the issue, network_offsets union is used inside napi_gro_cb, in
      which both the outer and the inner network offsets are saved.
      
      Reproduction example:
      
      Endpoint configuration example (fou + local address bind)
      
          # ip fou add port 6666 ipproto 4
          # ip link add name tun1 type ipip remote 2.2.2.1 local 2.2.2.2 encap fou encap-dport 5555 encap-sport 6666 mode ipip
          # ip link set tun1 up
          # ip a add 1.1.1.2/24 dev tun1
