2019-07-11	hsr: switch ->dellink() to ->ndo_uninit()	Cong Wang	1	-1/+0
	Switching from ->priv_destructor to dellink() has an unexpected consequence: existing RCU readers, that is, hsr_port_get_hsr() callers, may still be able to read the port list. Instead of checking the return value of each hsr_port_get_hsr(), we can just move it to ->ndo_uninit() which is called after device unregister and synchronize_net(), and we still have RTNL lock there. Fixes: b9a1e627405d ("hsr: implement dellink to clean up resources") Fixes: edf070a0fb45 ("hsr: fix a NULL pointer deref in hsr_dev_xmit()") Reported-by: syzbot+097ef84cdc95843fbaa8@syzkaller.appspotmail.com Cc: Arvid Brodin <arvid.brodin@alten.se> Signed-off-by: Cong Wang <xiyou.wangcong@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2019-07-05	hsr: implement dellink to clean up resources	Cong Wang	1	-0/+1
	hsr_link_ops implements ->newlink() but not ->dellink(), which leads that resources not released after removing the device, particularly the entries in self_node_db and node_db. So add ->dellink() implementation to replace the priv_destructor. This also makes the code slightly easier to understand.

2016-04-15	net/hsr: Added support for HSR v1	Peter Heise	1	-1/+1
	This patch adds support for the newer version 1 of the HSR networking standard. Version 0 is still default and the new version has to be selected via iproute2. Main changes are in the supervision frame handling and its ethertype field. Signed-off-by: Peter Heise <peter.heise@airbus.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2013-11-03	net/hsr: Add support for the High-availability Seamless Redundancy protocol (HSRv0)	Arvid Brodin	1	-0/+29
	High-availability Seamless Redundancy ("HSR") provides instant failover redundancy for Ethernet networks. It requires a special network topology where all nodes are connected in a ring (each node having two physical network interfaces). It is suited for applications that demand high availability and very short reaction time. HSR acts on the Ethernet layer, using a registered Ethernet protocol type to send special HSR frames in both directions over the ring. The driver creates virtual network interfaces that can be used just like any ordinary Linux network interface, for IP/TCP/UDP traffic etc. All nodes in the network ring must be HSR capable. This code is a "best effort" to comply with the HSR standard as described in IEC 62439-3:2010 (HSRv0). Signed-off-by: Arvid Brodin <arvid.brodin@xdin.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
