Andi reported problems when parse errors were detected with vendor
events (json), because in the yyparse/parse_events_parse function we
dereferenced the _data parameter to two different structs, with
different layouts, which ended up making parse_events_evlist->error to
point to random stack addresses.
Fix it by making _data to always be struct parse_events_state, changing
the only place where 'struct parse_events_term' was used in
parse_events.y.

Those are just casting a void pointer to a struct to then pass them to
functions, i.e. remove the local variables and pass the void pointer
directly, the casting will be done and the code will be shorter.

The Makefile verifies the same file exists twice:
test -f ../../../include/uapi/linux/bpf.h -a \
-f ../../../include/uapi/linux/bpf.h
The purpose of the check is to ensure the diff (immediately after the
test) doesn't fail with these two files:
tools/include/uapi/linux/bpf.h
include/uapi/linux/bpf.h
Same recipe for bpf_common:

I investigated perf test BPF for s390x and have a question regarding
the 38.3 subtest (bpf-prologue test) which fails on s390x.
When I turn on trace_printk in tests/bpf-script-test-prologue.c
I see this output in /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace:
[root@s8360047 perf]# cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace

[...]
There are 3 parameters the eBPF program tests/bpf-script-test-prologue.c
accesses: f_mode (member of struct file at offset 140) offset and orig. They
are parameters of the lseek() system call triggered in this test case in
function llseek_loop().
What is really strange is the value of f_mode. It is an 8 byte value, whereas
in the probe event it is defined as a 4 byte value. The lower 4 bytes are all
zero and do not belong to member f_mode. The correct value should be 2001d for
read-only and 6001f for read-write open mode.
Here is the output of the 'perf test -vv bpf' trace:

James reported that on MIPS32 bpf_trace_printk() is currently
broken while MIPS64 works fine:
bpf_trace_printk() uses conditional operators to attempt to
pass different types to __trace_printk() depending on the
format operators. This doesn't work as intended on 32-bit
architectures where u32 and long are passed differently to
u64, since the result of C conditional operators follows the
"usual arithmetic conversions" rules, such that the values
passed to __trace_printk() will always be u64 [causing issues
later in the va_list handling for vscnprintf()].
For example the samples/bpf/tracex5 test printed lines like
below on MIPS32, where the fd and buf have come from the u64
fd argument, and the size from the buf argument:
[...] 1180.941542: 0x00000001: write(fd=1, buf= (null), size=6258688)
Instead of this:
[...] 1625.616026: 0x00000001: write(fd=1, buf=009e4000, size=512)
One way to get it working is to expand various combinations
of argument types into 8 different combinations for 32 bit
and 64 bit kernels. Fix tested by James on MIPS32 and MIPS64
as well that it resolves the issue.

Traffic filters could keep direct pointers to classes in classful qdisc,
thus qdisc destruction first removes all filters before freeing classes.
Class destruction methods also tries to free attached filters but now
this isn't safe because tcf_block_put() unlike to tcf_destroy_chain()
cannot be called second time.
This patch set class->block to NULL after first tcf_block_put() and

Instead of using RCU to defer freeing while we are under memory stress,

Although audit_watch_handle_event() can handle FS_UNMOUNT event, it is
not part of AUDIT_FS_WATCH mask and thus such event never gets to
audit_watch_handle_event(). Thus fsnotify marks are deleted by fsnotify
subsystem on unmount without audit being notified about that which leads
to a strange state of existing audit rules with dead fsnotify marks.
Add FS_UNMOUNT to the mask of events to be received so that audit can
clean up its state accordingly.

audit_remove_watch_rule() drops watch's reference to parent but then
continues to work with it. That is not safe as parent can get freed once
we drop our reference. The following is a trivial reproducer:
mount -o loop image /mnt
touch /mnt/file
auditctl -w /mnt/file -p wax
umount /mnt
auditctl -D
<crash in fsnotify_destroy_mark()>
Grab our own reference in audit_remove_watch_rule() earlier to make sure
mark does not get freed under us.

copy_linear_skb() is broken; both of its callers actually
expect 'len' to be the amount we are trying to copy,
not the offset of the end.
Fix it keeping the meanings of arguments in sync with what the
callers (both of them) expect.
Also restore a saner behavior on EFAULT (i.e. preserving
the iov_iter position in case of failure):
The commit fd851ba9ca ("udp: harden copy_linear_skb()")
avoids the more destructive effect of the buggy
copy_linear_skb(), e.g. no more invalid memory access, but
said function still behaves incorrectly: when peeking with

When the real device goes down, the current cleanup code only checks for
dst->dev and assumes rt6->rt6i_idev->dev is the same. This causes the

====================
Add new PCI_DEV_FLAGS_NO_RELAXED_ORDERING flag
Some devices have problems with Transaction Layer Packets with the Relaxed
Ordering Attribute set. This patch set adds a new PCIe Device Flag,
PCI_DEV_FLAGS_NO_RELAXED_ORDERING, a set of PCI Quirks to catch some known
devices with Relaxed Ordering issues, and a use of this new flag by the
cxgb4 driver to avoid using Relaxed Ordering with problematic Root Complex
Ports.
It's been years since I've submitted kernel.org patches, I appolgise for the
almost certain submission errors.
v2: Alexander point out that the v1 was only a part of the whole solution,
some platform which has some issues could use the new flag to indicate
that it is not safe to enable relaxed ordering attribute, then we need
to clear the relaxed ordering enable bits in the PCI configuration when
initializing the device. So add a new second patch to modify the PCI
initialization code to clear the relaxed ordering enable bit in the
event that the root complex doesn't want relaxed ordering enabled.
The third patch was base on the v1's second patch and only be changed
to query the relaxed ordering enable bit in the PCI configuration space
to allow the Chelsio NIC to send TLPs with the relaxed ordering attributes
set.
This version didn't plan to drop the defines for Intel Drivers to use the
new checking way to enable relaxed ordering because it is not the hardest
part of the moment, we could fix it in next patchset when this patches
reach the goal.
v3: Redesigned the logic for pci_configure_relaxed_ordering when configuration,
If a PCIe device didn't enable the relaxed ordering attribute default,
we should not do anything in the PCIe configuration, otherwise we
should check if any of the devices above us do not support relaxed
ordering by the PCI_DEV_FLAGS_NO_RELAXED_ORDERING flag, then base on
the result if we get a return that indicate that the relaxed ordering
is not supported we should update our device to disable relaxed ordering
in configuration space. If the device above us doesn't exist or isn't
the PCIe device, we shouldn't do anything and skip updating relaxed ordering
because we are probably running in a guest.
v4: Rename the functions pcie_get_relaxed_ordering and pcie_disable_relaxed_ordering
according John's suggestion, and modify the description, use the true/false
as the return value.
We shouldn't enable relaxed ordering attribute by the setting in the root
complex configuration space for PCIe device, so fix it for cxgb4.
Fix some format issues.
v5: Removed the unnecessary code for some function which only return the bool
value, and add the check for VF device.
Make this patch set base on 4.12-rc5.
v6: Fix the logic error in the need to enable the relaxed ordering attribute for cxgb4.
v7: The cxgb4 drivers will enable the PCIe Capability Device Control[Relaxed
Ordering Enable] in PCI Probe() routine, this will break our current
solution for some platform which has problematic when enable the relaxed
ordering attribute. According to the latest recommendations, remove the
enable_pcie_relaxed_ordering(), although it could not cover the Peer-to-Peer
scene, but we agree to leave this problem until we really trigger it.
Make this patch set base on 4.12 release version.
v8: Change the second patch title and description to make it more reasonable,
add the acked-by from Alex and Ashok.
Add a new patch to enable the Relaxed Ordering Attribute for cxgb4vf driver.
Make this patch set base on 4.13-rc2.
v9: The document (https://software.intel.com/sites/default/files/managed/9e/
bc/64-ia-32-architectures-optimization-manual.pdf) indicate that the Xeon
processors based on Broadwell/Haswell microarchitecture has the problem
with Relaxed Ordering Attribute enabled, so add the whole list Device ID
from Intel to the patch.
v10: Significant rework based on Bjorn's feedback, reorganize the first 2 patches,
now the Intel and AMD erratum soc has been divided to the different patches,
rename the pcie_relaxed_ordering_supported() to pcie_relaxed_ordering_enabled(),
and no need to check every intervening switch except the root ports, update
some commits.
v11: We shouldn't let the Intel engineer to acked the AMD's erratum patch, fix the
funny mistake.

According to the Intel spec section 3.9.1 said:
3.9.1 Optimizing PCIe Performance for Accesses Toward Coherent Memory
and Toward MMIO Regions (P2P)
In order to maximize performance for PCIe devices in the processors
listed in Table 3-6 below, the soft- ware should determine whether the
accesses are toward coherent memory (system memory) or toward MMIO
regions (P2P access to other devices). If the access is toward MMIO
region, then software can command HW to set the RO bit in the TLP
header, as this would allow hardware to achieve maximum throughput for
these types of accesses. For accesses toward coherent memory, software
can command HW to clear the RO bit in the TLP header (no RO), as this
would allow hardware to achieve maximum throughput for these types of
accesses.
Table 3-6. Intel Processor CPU RP Device IDs for Processors Optimizing
PCIe Performance
Processor CPU RP Device IDs
Intel Xeon processors based on 6F01H-6F0EH

When bit4 is set in the PCIe Device Control register, it indicates
whether the device is permitted to use relaxed ordering.
On some platforms using relaxed ordering can have performance issues or
due to erratum can cause data-corruption. In such cases devices must avoid
using relaxed ordering.
The patch adds a new flag PCI_DEV_FLAGS_NO_RELAXED_ORDERING to indicate that
Relaxed Ordering (RO) attribute should not be used for Transaction Layer
Packets (TLP) targeted towards these affected root complexes.
This patch checks if there is any node in the hierarchy that indicates that
using relaxed ordering is not safe. In such cases the patch turns off the
relaxed ordering by clearing the capability for this device.

In the function msg_reverse(), we reverse the header while trying to
reuse the original buffer whenever possible. Those rejected/returned
messages are always transmitted as unicast, but the msg_non_seq field
is not explicitly set to zero as it should be.
We have seen cases where multicast senders set the message type to
"NOT dest_droppable", meaning that a multicast message shorter than
one MTU will be returned, e.g., during receive buffer overflow, by
reusing the original buffer. This has the effect that even the
'msg_non_seq' field is inadvertently inherited by the rejected message,
although it is now sent as a unicast message. This again leads the
receiving unicast link endpoint to steer the packet toward the broadcast
link receive function, where it is dropped. The affected unicast link is
thereafter (after 100 failed retransmissions) declared 'stale' and
reset.
We fix this by unconditionally setting the 'msg_non_seq' flag to zero
for all rejected/returned messages.

On L2 bearers, the TIPC broadcast function is sending out packets using
the corresponding L2 broadcast address. At reception, we filter such
packets under the assumption that they will also be delivered as
broadcast packets.
This assumption doesn't always hold true. Under high load, we have seen
that a switch may convert the destination address and deliver the packet
as a PACKET_MULTICAST, something leading to inadvertently dropped
packets and a stale and reset broadcast link.
We fix this by extending the reception filtering to accept packets of
type PACKET_MULTICAST.
