2017-06-09can: enable CAN FD for virtual CAN devices by defaultOliver Hartkopp1-1/+1
CAN FD capable CAN interfaces can handle (classic) CAN 2.0 frames too. New users usually fail at their first attempt to explore CAN FD on virtual CAN interfaces due to the current CAN_MTU default. Set the MTU to CANFD_MTU by default to reduce this confusion. If someone *really* needs a 'classic CAN'-only device this can be set with the 'ip' tool with e.g. 'ip link set vcan0 mtu 16' as before.

2017-06-07net: Fix inconsistent teardown and release of private netdev state.David S. Miller1-1/+1
Network devices can allocate reasources and private memory using netdev_ops->ndo_init(). However, the release of these resources can occur in one of two different places. Either netdev_ops->ndo_uninit() or netdev->destructor(). The decision of which operation frees the resources depends upon whether it is necessary for all netdev refs to be released before it is safe to perform the freeing. netdev_ops->ndo_uninit() presumably can occur right after the NETDEV_UNREGISTER notifier completes and the unicast and multicast address lists are flushed. netdev->destructor(), on the other hand, does not run until the netdev references all go away. Further complicating the situation is that netdev->destructor() almost universally does also a free_netdev(). This creates a problem for the logic in register_netdevice(). Because all callers of register_netdevice() manage the freeing of the netdev, and invoke free_netdev(dev) if register_netdevice() fails. If netdev_ops->ndo_init() succeeds, but something else fails inside of register_netdevice(), it does call ndo_ops->ndo_uninit(). But it is not able to invoke netdev->destructor(). This is because netdev->destructor() will do a free_netdev() and then the caller of register_netdevice() will do the same. However, this means that the resources that would normally be released by netdev->destructor() will not be. Over the years drivers have added local hacks to deal with this, by invoking their destructor parts by hand when register_netdevice() fails. Many drivers do not try to deal with this, and instead we have leaks. Let's close this hole by formalizing the distinction between what private things need to be freed up by netdev->destructor() and whether the driver needs unregister_netdevice() to perform the free_netdev(). netdev->priv_destructor() performs all actions to free up the private resources that used to be freed by netdev->destructor(), except for free_netdev(). netdev->needs_free_netdev is a boolean that indicates whether free_netdev() should be done at the end of unregister_netdevice(). Now, register_netdevice() can sanely release all resources after ndo_ops->ndo_init() succeeds, by invoking both ndo_ops->ndo_uninit() and netdev->priv_destructor(). And at the end of unregister_netdevice(), we invoke netdev->priv_destructor() and optionally call free_netdev(). Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2015-07-12can: replace timestamp as unique skb attributeOliver Hartkopp1-3/+0
Commit 514ac99c64b "can: fix multiple delivery of a single CAN frame for overlapping CAN filters" requires the skb->tstamp to be set to check for identical CAN skbs. Without timestamping to be required by user space applications this timestamp was not generated which lead to commit 36c01245eb8 "can: fix loss of CAN frames in raw_rcv" - which forces the timestamp to be set in all CAN related skbuffs by introducing several __net_timestamp() calls. This forces e.g. out of tree drivers which are not using alloc_can{,fd}_skb() to add __net_timestamp() after skbuff creation to prevent the frame loss fixed in mainline Linux. This patch removes the timestamp dependency and uses an atomic counter to create an unique identifier together with the skbuff pointer. Btw: the new skbcnt element introduced in struct can_skb_priv has to be initialized with zero in out-of-tree drivers which are not using alloc_can{,fd}_skb() too.

2015-06-21can: fix loss of CAN frames in raw_rcvOliver Hartkopp1-0/+3
As reported by Manfred Schlaegl here http://marc.info/?l=linux-netdev&m=143482089824232&w=2 commit 514ac99c64b "can: fix multiple delivery of a single CAN frame for overlapping CAN filters" requires the skb->tstamp to be set to check for identical CAN skbs. As net timestamping is influenced by several players (netstamp_needed and netdev_tstamp_prequeue) Manfred missed a proper timestamp which leads to CAN frame loss. As skb timestamping became now mandatory for CAN related skbs this patch makes sure that received CAN skbs always have a proper timestamp set. Maybe there's a better solution in the future but this patch fixes the CAN frame loss so far.

2014-12-07can: slcan/vcan: eliminate banner[] variable, switch to pr_info()Jeremiah Mahler1-4/+1
Several can modules in drivers/net/can use a banner[] variable at the top which defines a string that is used once during init. This string is also embedded with KERN_INFO which makes it printk() specific. Improve the code by eliminating the banner[] variable and moving the string to where it is printed. Then switch from printk(KERN_INFO to pr_info() for the lines that were changed. This patch is similar to [1] which was applied to net/can.

2014-01-30can: add destructor for self generated skbsOliver Hartkopp1-5/+4
Self generated skbuffs in net/can/bcm.c are setting a skb->sk reference but no explicit destructor which is enforced since Linux 3.11 with commit 376c7311bdb6 (net: add a temporary sanity check in skb_orphan()). This patch adds some helper functions to make sure that a destructor is properly defined when a sock reference is assigned to a CAN related skb. To create an unshared skb owned by the original sock a common helper function has been introduced to replace open coded functions to create CAN echo skbs.

module_param(bool) used to counter-intuitively take an int. In fddd5201 (mid-2009) we allowed bool or int/unsigned int using a messy trick. It's time to remove the int/unsigned int option.

2010-03-30include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.hTejun Heo1-0/+1
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies. percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is used as the basis of conversion. http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py The script does the followings. * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used, gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h. * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered - alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there doesn't seem to be any matching order. * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the file. The conversion was done in the following steps. 1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400 files. 2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion, some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added inclusions to around 150 files. 3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits from #2 to make sure no file was left behind. 4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed. e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually. 5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as necessary. 6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h. 7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq). * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config. * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig * ia64 SMP allmodconfig * s390 SMP allmodconfig * alpha SMP allmodconfig * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig 8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as a separate patch and serve as bisection point. Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step 6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch. If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of the specific arch.

2009-09-15can: fix NOHZ local_softirq_pending 08 warningOliver Hartkopp1-1/+1
When using nanosleep() in an userspace application we get a ratelimit warning NOHZ: local_softirq_pending 08 for 10 times. The echo of CAN frames is done from process context and softirq context only. Therefore the usage of netif_rx() was wrong (for years). This patch replaces netif_rx() with netif_rx_ni() which has to be used from process/softirq context. It also adds a missing comment that can_send() must no be used from hardirq context.
