[5.15.y BACKPORT] selftests: net: test_vxlan_under_vrf: fix HV connectivity test

by caojiaqiang 00593155

From: Andrea Righi <andrea.righi(a)canonical.com> It looks like test_vxlan_under_vrf.sh is always failing to verify the connectivity test during the ping between the two simulated VMs. This is due to the fact that veth-hv in each VM should have a distinct MAC address. Fix by setting a unique MAC address on each simulated VM interface. Without this fix: $ sudo ./tools/testing/selftests/net/test_vxlan_under_vrf.sh Checking HV connectivity [ OK ] Check VM connectivity through VXLAN (underlay in the default VRF) [FAIL] With this fix applied: $ sudo ./tools/testing/selftests/net/test_vxlan_under_vrf.sh Checking HV connectivity [ OK ] Check VM connectivity through VXLAN (underlay in the default VRF) [ OK ] Check VM connectivity through VXLAN (underlay in a VRF) [FAIL] NOTE: the connectivity test with the underlay VRF is still failing; it seems that ARP requests are blocked at the simulated hypervisor level, probably due to some missing ARP forwarding rules. This requires more investigation (in the meantime we may consider to set that test as expected failure - XFAIL). Signed-off-by: Andrea Righi <andrea.righi(a)canonical.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

[PATCH 5.15.y 5.10.y] ipv4: Fix uninit-value access in __ip_make_skb()

by skulkarni＠mvista.com

From: Shigeru Yoshida <syoshida(a)redhat.com> commit fc1092f51567277509563800a3c56732070b6aa4 upstream. KMSAN reported uninit-value access in __ip_make_skb() [1]. __ip_make_skb() tests HDRINCL to know if the skb has icmphdr. However, HDRINCL can cause a race condition. If calling setsockopt(2) with IP_HDRINCL changes HDRINCL while __ip_make_skb() is running, the function will access icmphdr in the skb even if it is not included. This causes the issue reported by KMSAN. Check FLOWI_FLAG_KNOWN_NH on fl4->flowi4_flags instead of testing HDRINCL on the socket. Also, fl4->fl4_icmp_type and fl4->fl4_icmp_code are not initialized. These are union in struct flowi4 and are implicitly initialized by flowi4_init_output(), but we should not rely on specific union layout. Initialize these explicitly in raw_sendmsg().

[PATCH] PCI: Avoid work_on_cpu() in async probe workers

by Jinhui Guo

Commit ef0ff68351be ("driver core: Probe devices asynchronously instead of the driver") speeds up the loading of large numbers of device drivers by submitting asynchronous probe workers to an unbounded workqueue and binding each worker to the CPU near the device’s NUMA node. These workers are not scheduled on isolated CPUs because their cpumask is restricted to housekeeping_cpumask(HK_TYPE_WQ) and housekeeping_cpumask(HK_TYPE_DOMAIN). However, when PCI devices reside on the same NUMA node, all their drivers’ probe workers are bound to the same CPU within that node, yet the probes still run in parallel because pci_call_probe() invokes work_on_cpu(). Introduced by commit 873392ca514f ("PCI: work_on_cpu: use in drivers/pci/pci-driver.c"), work_on_cpu() queues a worker on system_percpu_wq to bind the probe thread to the first CPU in the device’s NUMA node (chosen via cpumask_any_and() in pci_call_probe()). 1. The function __driver_attach() submits an asynchronous worker with callback __driver_attach_async_helper(). __driver_attach() async_schedule_dev(__driver_attach_async_helper, dev) async_schedule_node(func, dev, dev_to_node(dev)) async_schedule_node_domain(func, data, node, &async_dfl_domain) __async_schedule_node_domain(func, data, node, domain, entry) queue_work_node(node, async_wq, &entry->work) 2. The asynchronous probe worker ultimately calls work_on_cpu() in pci_call_probe(), binding the worker to the same CPU within the device’s NUMA node. __driver_attach_async_helper() driver_probe_device(drv, dev) __driver_probe_device(drv, dev) really_probe(dev, drv) call_driver_probe(dev, drv) dev->bus->probe(dev) pci_device_probe(dev) __pci_device_probe(drv, pci_dev) pci_call_probe(drv, pci_dev, id) cpu = cpumask_any_and(cpumask_of_node(node), wq_domain_mask) error = work_on_cpu(cpu, local_pci_probe, &ddi) schedule_work_on(cpu, &wfc.work); queue_work_on(cpu, system_percpu_wq, work) To fix the issue, pci_call_probe() must not call work_on_cpu() when it is already running inside an unbounded asynchronous worker. Because a driver can be probed asynchronously either by probe_type or by the kernel command line, we cannot rely on PROBE_PREFER_ASYNCHRONOUS alone. Instead, we test the PF_WQ_WORKER flag in current->flags; if it is set, pci_call_probe() is executing within an unbounded workqueue worker and should skip the extra work_on_cpu() call. Testing three NVMe devices on the same NUMA node of an AMD EPYC 9A64 2.4 GHz processor shows a 35 % probe-time improvement with the patch: Before (all on CPU 0): nvme 0000:01:00.0: CPU: 0, COMM: kworker/0:1, probe cost: 53372612 ns nvme 0000:02:00.0: CPU: 0, COMM: kworker/0:2, probe cost: 49532941 ns nvme 0000:03:00.0: CPU: 0, COMM: kworker/0:3, probe cost: 47315175 ns After (spread across CPUs 1, 2, 5): nvme 0000:01:00.0: CPU: 5, COMM: kworker/u1025:5, probe cost: 34765890 ns nvme 0000:02:00.0: CPU: 1, COMM: kworker/u1025:2, probe cost: 34696433 ns nvme 0000:03:00.0: CPU: 2, COMM: kworker/u1025:3, probe cost: 33233323 ns The improvement grows with more PCI devices because fewer probes contend for the same CPU.

[PATCH] mm/zswap: fix error pointer free in zswap_cpu_comp_prepare()

by Pavel Butsykin

crypto_alloc_acomp_node() may return ERR_PTR(), but the fail path checks only for NULL and can pass an error pointer to crypto_free_acomp(). Use IS_ERR_OR_NULL() to only free valid acomp instances.
