Eric W. Biderman and Michal Hocko reported various memory corruptions
that we suspected to be related to a LIST head located on stack, that
was manipulated after thread left function frame (and eventually exited,
so its stack was freed and reused).
Eric Dumazet suggested the problem was probably coming from commit
443457242b (net: factorize
sync-rcu call in unregister_netdevice_many)
This patch fixes __dev_close() and dev_close() to properly deinit their
respective LIST_HEAD(single) before exiting.

NETDEV_NOTIFY_PEER is an explicit request by the driver to send a link
notification while NETDEV_UP/NETDEV_CHANGEADDR generate link
notifications as a sort of side effect.
In the later cases the sysctl option is present because link
notification events can have undesired effects e.g. if the link is
flapping. I don't think this applies in the case of an explicit
request from a driver.
This patch makes NETDEV_NOTIFY_PEER unconditional, if preferred we
could add a new sysctl for this case which defaults to on.
This change causes Xen post-migration ARP notifications (which cause
switches to relearn their MAC tables etc) to be sent by default.

When a Virtual Machine is rebooted, KVM currently fails to issue a Function
Level Reset against any "Attached PCI Devices" (AKA "PCI Passthrough"). In
addition to leaving the attached device in a random state in the next booted
kernel (which sort of violates the entire idea of a reboot reseting hardware
state), this leaves our peer thinking that the link is still up. (Note that
a bug has been filed with the KVM folks, #25332, but there's been no
response on that as of yet.) So, we add a "->shutdown()" method for the
Virtual Function PCI Device to handle administrative shutdowns like a

In drivers/net/usb/hso.c::hso_create_bulk_serial_device() we have this
code:
...
serial = kzalloc(sizeof(*serial), GFP_KERNEL);
if (!serial)
goto exit;
...
exit:
hso_free_tiomget(serial);
...
hso_free_tiomget() directly dereferences its argument, which in the
example above is a NULL pointer, ouch.
I could just add a 'if (serial)' test at the 'exit' label, but since most
freeing functions in the kernel accept NULL pointers (and it seems like
this was also assumed here) I opted to instead change 'hso_free_tiomget()'
so that it is safe to call it with a NULL argument. I also modified the
function to get rid of a pointles conditional before the call to
'usb_free_urb()' since that function already tests for NULL itself -
besides fixing the NULL deref this change also buys us a few bytes in
size.

As it turns out we never need to walk through the list of multicast
groups subscribed by the bridge interface itself (the only time we'd
want to do that is when we shut down the bridge, in which case we
simply walk through all multicast groups), we don't really need to
keep an hlist for mp->mglist.
This means that we can replace it with just a single bit to indicate
whether the bridge interface is subscribed to a group.

snooping less effective.

The list mp->mglist is used to indicate whether a multicast group
is active on the bridge interface itself as opposed to one of the
constituent interfaces in the bridge.
Unfortunately the operation that adds the mp->mglist node to the
list neglected to check whether it has already been added. This
leads to list corruption in the form of nodes pointing to itself.
Normally this would be quite obvious as it would cause an infinite
loop when walking the list. However, as this list is never actually
walked (which means that we don't really need it, I'll get rid of
it in a subsequent patch), this instead is hidden until we perform
a delete operation on the affected nodes.
As the same node may now be pointed to by more than one node, the
delete operations can then cause modification of freed memory.
This was observed in practice to cause corruption in 512-byte slabs,
most commonly leading to crashes in jbd2.
Thanks to Josef Bacik for pointing me in the right direction.

The TCP tracking code has a special case that allows to return

In this situation, the TCP tracking code destroys the existing
conntrack to start a new clean session.
[DESTROY] tcp 6 src=192.168.0.2 dst=192.168.1.2 sport=38925 dport=8000 src=192.168.1.2 dst=192.168.1.100 sport=8000 dport=38925 [ASSURED]

However, this is a problem for the iptables' CT target event filtering
which will not work in this case since the conntrack template will not
be there for the new session. To fix this, we reassign the conntrack
template to the packet if we return NF_REPEAT.

In commit aa94210411 ("net: init ingress
queue") we moved the allocation and lock initialization of the queues
into alloc_netdev_mq() since register_netdevice() is way too late.
The problem is that dev->type is not setup until the setup()
callback is invoked by alloc_netdev_mq(), and the dev->type is
what determines the lockdep class to use for the locks in the
queues.
Fix this by doing the queue allocation after the setup() callback
runs.
This is safe because the setup() callback is not allowed to make any
state changes that need to be undone on error (memory allocations,
etc.). It may, however, make state changes that are undone by
free_netdev() (such as netif_napi_add(), which is done by the
ipoib driver's setup routine).
The previous code also leaked a reference to the &init_net namespace
object on RX/TX queue allocation failures.

rtnl_link_ops->setup(), and the "setup" callback passed to alloc_netdev*(),
cannot make state changes which need to be undone on failure. There is
no cleanup mechanism available at this point.
So we have to add the caif private instance to the global list once we
are sure that register_netdev() has succedded in ->newlink().
Otherwise, if register_netdev() fails, the caller will invoke free_netdev()
and we will have a reference to freed up memory on the chnl_net_list.
