      rndis_wlan: correct multicast_list handling V3 · 12c3400a
      Jiri Pirko 提交于
      My previous patch (655ffee2) added locking in
      a bad way. Because rndis_set_oid can sleep, there is need to prepare multicast
      addresses into local buffer under netif_addr_lock first, then call
      rndis_set_oid outside. This caused reorganizing of the whole function.

      gianfar: Fix TX ring processing on SMP machines · 0eddba52
      Anton Vorontsov 提交于
      Starting with commit a3bc1f11 ("gianfar: Revive SKB
      recycling") gianfar driver sooner or later stops transmitting any
      packets on SMP machines.
      
      start_xmit() prepares new skb for transmitting, generally it does
      three things:
      
      1. sets up all BDs (marks them ready to send), except the first one.
      2. stores skb into tx_queue->tx_skbuff so that clean_tx_ring()
         would cleanup it later.
      3. sets up the first BD, i.e. marks it ready.
      
      Here is what clean_tx_ring() does:
      
      1. reads skbs from tx_queue->tx_skbuff
      2. checks if the *last* BD is ready. If it's still ready [to send]
         then it it isn't transmitted, so clean_tx_ring() returns.
         Otherwise it actually cleanups BDs. All is OK.
      
      Now, if there is just one BD, code flow:
      
      - start_xmit(): stores skb into tx_skbuff. Note that the first BD
        (which is also the last one) isn't marked as ready, yet.
      - clean_tx_ring(): sees that skb is not null, *and* its lstatus
        says that it is NOT ready (like if BD was sent), so it cleans
        it up (bad!)
      - start_xmit(): marks BD as ready [to send], but it's too late.
      
      We can fix this simply by reordering lstatus/tx_skbuff writes.

      What happens is that, when the tipc module in inserted it enters a standalone
      node mode in which communication to its own address is allowed <0.0.0> but not
      to other addresses, since the appropriate data structures have not been
      allocated yet (specifically the tipc_net pointer).  There is nothing stopping a
      client from trying to send such a message however, and if that happens, we
      attempt to dereference tipc_net.zones while the pointer is still NULL, and
      explode.  The fix is pretty straightforward.  Since these oopses all arise from
      the dereference of global pointers prior to their assignment to allocated
      values, and since these allocations are small (about 2k total), lets convert
      these pointers to static arrays of the appropriate size.  All the accesses to
      these bits consider 0/NULL to be a non match when searching, so all the lookups
      still work properly, and there is no longer a chance of a bad dererence
      anywhere.  As a bonus, this lets us eliminate the setup/teardown routines for
      those pointers, and elimnates the need to preform any locking around them to
      prevent access while their being allocated/freed.
      
      I've updated the tipc_net structure to behave this way to fix the exact reported
      problem, and also fixed up the tipc_bearers and media_list arrays to fix an
      obvious simmilar problem that arises from issuing tipc-config commands to
      manipulate bearers/links prior to entering networked mode
      
      I've tested this for a few hours by running the sanity tests and stress test
      with the tipcutils suite, and nothing has fallen over.  There have been a few
      lockdep warnings, but those were there before, and can be addressed later, as
      they didn't actually result in any deadlock.

      gre: fix hard header destination address checking · 6d55cb91
      Timo Teräs 提交于
      ipgre_header() can be called with zero daddr when the gre device is
      configured as multipoint tunnel and still has the NOARP flag set (which is
      typically cleared by the userspace arp daemon).  If the NOARP packets are
      not dropped, ipgre_tunnel_xmit() will take rt->rt_gateway (= NBMA IP) and
      use that for route look up (and may lead to bogus xfrm acquires).
      
      The multicast address check is removed as sending to multicast group should
      be ok.  In fact, if gre device has a multicast address as destination
      ipgre_header is always called with multicast address.

      IPv6: fix race between cleanup and add/delete address · 8f37ada5
      stephen hemminger 提交于
      This solves a potential race problem during the cleanup process.
      The issue is that addrconf_ifdown() needs to traverse address list,
      but then drop lock to call the notifier. The version in -next
      could get confused if add/delete happened during this window.
      Original code (2.6.32 and earlier) was okay because all addresses
      were always deleted.

      IPv6: addrconf notify when address is unavailable · 84e8b803
      stephen hemminger 提交于
      My recent change in net-next to retain permanent addresses caused regression.
      Device refcount would not go to zero when device was unregistered because
      left over anycast reference would hold ipv6 dev reference which would hold
      device references...
      
      The correct procedure is to call notify chain when address is no longer
      available for use.  When interface comes back DAD timer will notify
      back that address is available.
      
      Also, link local addresses should be purged when interface is brought
      down. The address might be changed.

      mac80211: Fix HT rate control configuration · 4fa00437
      Sujith 提交于
      Handling HT configuration changes involved setting the channel
      with the new HT parameters and then issuing a rate_update()
      notification to the driver.
      
      This behavior changed after the off-channel changes. Now, the channel
      is not updated with the new HT params in enable_ht() - instead, it
      is now done when the scan work terminates. This results in the driver
      depending on stale information, defaulting to non-HT mode always.
      
      Fix this by passing the new channel type to the driver.
