vlan: Correctly propagate promisc|allmulti flags in notifier.
Currently vlan notifier handler will try to update all vlans for a device when that device comes up. A problem occurs, however, when the vlan device was set to promiscuous, but not by the user (ex: a bridge). In that case, dev->gflags are not updated. What results is that the lower device ends up with an extra promiscuity count. Here are the backtraces that prove this: [62852.052179] [<ffffffff814fe248>] __dev_set_promiscuity+0x38/0x1e0 [62852.052186] [<ffffffff8160bcbb>] ? _raw_spin_unlock_bh+0x1b/0x40 [62852.052188] [<ffffffff814fe4be>] ? dev_set_rx_mode+0x2e/0x40 [62852.052190] [<ffffffff814fe694>] dev_set_promiscuity+0x24/0x50 [62852.052194] [<ffffffffa0324795>] vlan_dev_open+0xd5/0x1f0 [8021q] [62852.052196] [<ffffffff814fe58f>] __dev_open+0xbf/0x140 [62852.052198] [<ffffffff814fe88d>] __dev_change_flags+0x9d/0x170 [62852.052200] [<ffffffff814fe989>] dev_change_flags+0x29/0x60 The above comes from the setting the vlan device to IFF_UP state. [62852.053569] [<ffffffff814fe248>] __dev_set_promiscuity+0x38/0x1e0 [62852.053571] [<ffffffffa032459b>] ? vlan_dev_set_rx_mode+0x2b/0x30 [8021q] [62852.053573] [<ffffffff814fe8d5>] __dev_change_flags+0xe5/0x170 [62852.053645] [<ffffffff814fe989>] dev_change_flags+0x29/0x60 [62852.053647] [<ffffffffa032334a>] vlan_device_event+0x18a/0x690 [8021q] [62852.053649] [<ffffffff8161036c>] notifier_call_chain+0x4c/0x70 [62852.053651] [<ffffffff8109d456>] raw_notifier_call_chain+0x16/0x20 [62852.053653] [<ffffffff814f744d>] call_netdevice_notifiers+0x2d/0x60 [62852.053654] [<ffffffff814fe1a3>] __dev_notify_flags+0x33/0xa0 [62852.053656] [<ffffffff814fe9b2>] dev_change_flags+0x52/0x60 [62852.053657] [<ffffffff8150cd57>] do_setlink+0x397/0xa40 And this one comes from the notification code. What we end up with is a vlan with promiscuity count of 1 and and a physical device with a promiscuity count of 2. They should both have a count 1. To resolve this issue, vlan code can use dev_get_flags() api which correctly masks promiscuity and allmulti flags. Signed-off-by: Vlad Yasevich <vyasevic@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
