      vlan: Fix vlan-in-vlan crashes. · 9d40bbda
      David S. Miller 提交于
      As analyzed by Patrick McHardy, vlan needs to reset it's
      netdev_ops pointer in it's ->init() function but this
      leaves the compat method pointers stale.
      
      Add a netdev_resync_ops() and call it from the vlan code.
      
      Any other driver which changes ->netdev_ops after register_netdevice()
      will need to call this new function after doing so too.
      
      With help from Patrick McHardy.

      netns: Remove net_alive · 17edde52
      Eric W. Biederman 提交于
      It turns out that net_alive is unnecessary, and the original problem
      that led to it being added was simply that the icmp code thought
      it was a network device and wound up being unable to handle packets
      while there were still packets in the network namespace.
      
      Now that icmp and tcp have been fixed to properly register themselves
      this problem is no longer present and we have a stronger guarantee
      that packets will not arrive in a network namespace then that provided
      by net_alive in netif_receive_skb.  So remove net_alive allowing
      packet reception run a little faster.
      
      Additionally document the strong reason why network namespace cleanup
      is safe so that if something happens again someone else will have
      a chance of figuring it out.

      sctp: Fix broken RTO-doubling for data retransmits · 7e99013a

      Commit faee47cd
      (sctp: Fix the RTO-doubling on idle-link heartbeats)
      broke the RTO doubling for data retransmits.  If the
      heartbeat was sent before the data T3-rtx time, the
      the RTO will not double upon the T3-rtx expiration.
      Distingish between the operations by passing an argument
      to the function.
      
      Additionally, Wei Youngjun pointed out that our treatment
      of requested HEARTBEATS and timer HEARTBEATS is the same
      wrt resetting congestion window.  That needs to be separated,
      since user requested HEARTBEATS should not treat the link
      as idle.

      wimax/i2400m: implement RX reorder support · c747583d
      Inaky Perez-Gonzalez 提交于
      Allow the device to give the driver RX data with reorder information.
      
      When that is done, the device will indicate the driver if a packet has
      to be held in a (sorted) queue. It will also tell the driver when held
      packets have to be released to the OS.
      
      This is done to improve the WiMAX-protocol level retransmission
      support when missing frames are detected.
      
      The code docs provide details about the implementation.
      
      In general, this just hooks into the RX path in rx.c; if a packet with
      the reorder bit in the RX header is detected, the reorder information
      in the header is extracted and one of the four main reorder operations
      are executed. In one case (queue) no packet will be delivered to the
      networking stack, just queued, whereas in the others (reset, update_ws
      and queue_update_ws), queued packet might be delivered depending on
      the window start for the specific queue.
      
      The modifications to files other than rx.c are:
      
      - control.c: during device initialization, enable reordering support
        if the rx_reorder_disabled module parameter is not enabled
      
      - driver.c: expose a rx_reorder_disable module parameter and call
        i2400m_rx_setup/release() to initialize/shutdown RX reorder
        support.
      
      - i2400m.h: introduce members in 'struct i2400m' needed for
        implementing reorder support.
      
      - linux/i2400m.h: introduce TLVs, commands and constant definitions
        related to RX reorder
      
      Last but not least, the rx reorder code includes an small circular log
      where the last N reorder operations are recorded to be displayed in
      case of inconsistency. Otherwise diagnosing issues would be almost
      impossible.

      wimax/i2400m: support extended data RX protocol (no need to reallocate skbs) · fd5c565c
      Inaky Perez-Gonzalez 提交于
      Newer i2400m firmwares (>= v1.4) extend the data RX protocol so that
      each packet has a 16 byte header. This header is mainly used to
      implement host reordeing (which is addressed in later commits).
      
      However, this header also allows us to overwrite it (once data has
      been extracted) with an Ethernet header and deliver to the networking
      stack without having to reallocate the skb (as it happened in fw <=
      v1.3) to make room for it.
      
      - control.c: indicate the device [dev_initialize()] that the driver
        wants to use the extended data RX protocol. Also involves adding the
        definition of the needed data types in include/linux/wimax/i2400m.h.
      
      - rx.c: handle the new payload type for the extended RX data
        protocol. Prepares the skb for delivery to
        netdev.c:i2400m_net_erx().
      
      - netdev.c: Introduce i2400m_net_erx() that adds the fake ethernet
        address to a prepared skb and delivers it to the networking
        stack.
      
      - cleanup: in most instances in rx.c, the variable 'single' was
        renamed to 'single_last' for it better conveys its meaning.

      wimax/i2400m: allow control of the base-station idle mode timeout · 8987691a
      Inaky Perez-Gonzalez 提交于
      For power saving reasons, WiMAX links can be put in idle mode while
      connected after a certain time of the link not being used for tx or
      rx. In this mode, the device pages the base-station regularly and when
      data is ready to be transmitted, the link is revived.
      
      This patch allows the user to control the time the device has to be
      idle before it decides to go to idle mode from a sysfs
      interace.
      
      It also updates the initialization code to acknowledge the module
      variable 'idle_mode_disabled' when the firmware is a newer version
      (upcoming 1.4 vs 2.6.29's v1.3).
      
      The method for setting the idle mode timeout in the older firmwares is
      much more limited and can be only done at initialization time. Thus,
      the sysfs file will return -ENOSYS on older ones.

      Bluetooth: Ask upper layers for HCI disconnect reason · 2950f21a
      Marcel Holtmann 提交于
      Some of the qualification tests demand that in case of failures in L2CAP
      the HCI disconnect should indicate a reason why L2CAP fails. This is a
      bluntly layer violation since multiple L2CAP connections could be using
      the same ACL and thus forcing a disconnect reason is not a good idea.
      
      To comply with the Bluetooth test specification, the disconnect reason
      is now stored in the L2CAP connection structure and every time a new
      L2CAP channel is added it will set back to its default. So only in the
      case where the L2CAP channel with the disconnect reason is really the
      last one, it will propagated to the HCI layer.
      
      The HCI layer has been extended with a disconnect indication that allows
      it to ask upper layers for a disconnect reason. The upper layer must not
      support this callback and in that case it will nicely default to the
      existing behavior. If an upper layer like L2CAP can provide a disconnect
      reason that one will be used to disconnect the ACL or SCO link.
      
      No modification to the ACL disconnect timeout have been made. So in case
      of Linux to Linux connection the initiator will disconnect the ACL link
      before the acceptor side can signal the specific disconnect reason. That
      is perfectly fine since Linux doesn't make use of this value anyway. The
      L2CAP layer has a perfect valid error code for rejecting connection due
      to a security violation. It is unclear why the Bluetooth specification
      insists on having specific HCI disconnect reason.

      Bluetooth: Don't enforce authentication for L2CAP PSM 1 and 3 · 435fef20
      Marcel Holtmann 提交于
      The recommendation for the L2CAP PSM 1 (SDP) is to not use any kind
      of authentication or encryption. So don't trigger authentication
      for incoming and outgoing SDP connections.
      
      For L2CAP PSM 3 (RFCOMM) there is no clear requirement, but with
      Bluetooth 2.1 the initiator is required to enable authentication
      and encryption first and this gets enforced. So there is no need
      to trigger an additional authentication step. The RFCOMM service
      security will make sure that a secure enough link key is present.
      
      When the encryption gets enabled after the SDP connection setup,
      then switch the security level from SDP to low security.
