      [PATCH] softmac: make non-operational after being stopped · d57336e3
      Daniel Drake 提交于
      zd1211 with softmac and wpa_supplicant revealed an issue with softmac
      and the use of workqueues. Some of the work functions actually
      reschedule themselves, so this meant that there could still be
      pending work after flush_scheduled_work() had been called during
      ieee80211softmac_stop().
      
      This patch introduces a "running" flag which is used to ensure that
      rescheduling does not happen in this situation.
      
      I also used this flag to ensure that softmac's hooks into ieee80211 are
      non-operational once the stop operation has been started. This simply
      makes softmac a little more robust, because I could crash it easily
      by receiving frames in the short timeframe after shutting down softmac
      and before turning off the ZD1211 radio. (ZD1211 is now fixed as well!)

      [INET]: Introduce tunnel4/tunnel6 · d2acc347
      Herbert Xu 提交于
      Basically this patch moves the generic tunnel protocol stuff out of
      xfrm4_tunnel/xfrm6_tunnel and moves it into the new files of tunnel4.c
      and tunnel6 respectively.
      
      The reason for this is that the problem that Hugo uncovered is only
      the tip of the iceberg.  The real problem is that when we removed the
      dependency of ipip on xfrm4_tunnel we didn't really consider the module
      case at all.
      
      For instance, as it is it's possible to build both ipip and xfrm4_tunnel
      as modules and if the latter is loaded then ipip simply won't load.
      
      After considering the alternatives I've decided that the best way out of
      this is to restore the dependency of ipip on the non-xfrm-specific part
      of xfrm4_tunnel.  This is acceptable IMHO because the intention of the
      removal was really to be able to use ipip without the xfrm subsystem.
      This is still preserved by this patch.
      
      So now both ipip/xfrm4_tunnel depend on the new tunnel4.c which handles
      the arbitration between the two.  The order of processing is determined
      by a simple integer which ensures that ipip gets processed before
      xfrm4_tunnel.
      
      The situation for ICMP handling is a little bit more complicated since
      we may not have enough information to determine who it's for.  It's not
      a big deal at the moment since the xfrm ICMP handlers are basically
      no-ops.  In future we can deal with this when we look at ICMP caching
      in general.
      
      The user-visible change to this is the removal of the TUNNEL Kconfig
      prompts.  This makes sense because it can only be used through IPCOMP
      as it stands.
      
      The addition of the new modules shouldn't introduce any problems since
      module dependency will cause them to be loaded.
      
      Oh and I also turned some unnecessary pskb's in IPv6 related to this
      patch to skb's.

      [PATCH] Notifier chain update: API changes · e041c683
      Alan Stern 提交于
      The kernel's implementation of notifier chains is unsafe.  There is no
      protection against entries being added to or removed from a chain while the
      chain is in use.  The issues were discussed in this thread:
      
          http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=113018709002036&w=2
      
      We noticed that notifier chains in the kernel fall into two basic usage
      classes:
      
      	"Blocking" chains are always called from a process context
      	and the callout routines are allowed to sleep;
      
      	"Atomic" chains can be called from an atomic context and
      	the callout routines are not allowed to sleep.
      
      We decided to codify this distinction and make it part of the API.  Therefore
      this set of patches introduces three new, parallel APIs: one for blocking
      notifiers, one for atomic notifiers, and one for "raw" notifiers (which is
      really just the old API under a new name).  New kinds of data structures are
      used for the heads of the chains, and new routines are defined for
      registration, unregistration, and calling a chain.  The three APIs are
      explained in include/linux/notifier.h and their implementation is in
      kernel/sys.c.
      
      With atomic and blocking chains, the implementation guarantees that the chain
      links will not be corrupted and that chain callers will not get messed up by
      entries being added or removed.  For raw chains the implementation provides no
      guarantees at all; users of this API must provide their own protections.  (The
      idea was that situations may come up where the assumptions of the atomic and
      blocking APIs are not appropriate, so it should be possible for users to
      handle these things in their own way.)
      
      There are some limitations, which should not be too hard to live with.  For
      atomic/blocking chains, registration and unregistration must always be done in
      a process context since the chain is protected by a mutex/rwsem.  Also, a
      callout routine for a non-raw chain must not try to register or unregister
      entries on its own chain.  (This did happen in a couple of places and the code
      had to be changed to avoid it.)
      
      Since atomic chains may be called from within an NMI handler, they cannot use
      spinlocks for synchronization.  Instead we use RCU.  The overhead falls almost
      entirely in the unregister routine, which is okay since unregistration is much
      less frequent that calling a chain.
      
      Here is the list of chains that we adjusted and their classifications.  None
      of them use the raw API, so for the moment it is only a placeholder.
      
        ATOMIC CHAINS
        -------------
      arch/i386/kernel/traps.c:		i386die_chain

      kernel/profile.c:			task_free_notifier
      net/bluetooth/hci_core.c:		hci_notifier
      net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_conntrack_core.c:	ip_conntrack_chain
      net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_conntrack_core.c:	ip_conntrack_expect_chain
      net/ipv6/addrconf.c:			inet6addr_chain
      net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_core.c:	nf_conntrack_chain
      net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_core.c:	nf_conntrack_expect_chain
      net/netlink/af_netlink.c:		netlink_chain
      
        BLOCKING CHAINS
        ---------------
      arch/powerpc/platforms/pseries/reconfig.c:	pSeries_reconfig_chain
      arch/s390/kernel/process.c:		idle_chain
      arch/x86_64/kernel/process.c		idle_notifier
      drivers/base/memory.c:			memory_chain
      drivers/cpufreq/cpufreq.c		cpufreq_policy_notifier_list
      drivers/cpufreq/cpufreq.c		cpufreq_transition_notifier_list
      drivers/macintosh/adb.c:		adb_client_list
      drivers/macintosh/via-pmu.c		sleep_notifier_list
      drivers/macintosh/via-pmu68k.c		sleep_notifier_list
      drivers/macintosh/windfarm_core.c	wf_client_list
      drivers/usb/core/notify.c		usb_notifier_list
      drivers/video/fbmem.c			fb_notifier_list
      kernel/cpu.c				cpu_chain
      kernel/module.c				module_notify_list
      kernel/profile.c			munmap_notifier
      kernel/profile.c			task_exit_notifier
      kernel/sys.c				reboot_notifier_list
      net/core/dev.c				netdev_chain
      net/decnet/dn_dev.c:			dnaddr_chain
      net/ipv4/devinet.c:			inetaddr_chain
      
      It's possible that some of these classifications are wrong.  If they are,
      please let us know or submit a patch to fix them.  Note that any chain that
      gets called very frequently should be atomic, because the rwsem read-locking
      used for blocking chains is very likely to incur cache misses on SMP systems.
      (However, if the chain's callout routines may sleep then the chain cannot be
      atomic.)
      
      The patch set was written by Alan Stern and Chandra Seetharaman, incorporating
      material written by Keith Owens and suggestions from Paul McKenney and Andrew
      Morton.

      [X25]: allow ITU-T DTE facilities for x25 · a64b7b93
      Shaun Pereira 提交于
      Allows use of the optional user facility to insert ITU-T
      (http://www.itu.int/ITU-T/) specified DTE facilities in call set-up x25
      packets.  This feature is optional; no facilities will be added if the ioctl
      is not used, and call setup packet remains the same as before.
      
      If the ioctls provided by the patch are used, then a facility marker will be
      added to the x25 packet header so that the called dte address extension
      facility can be differentiated from other types of facilities (as described in
      the ITU-T X.25 recommendation) that are also allowed in the x25 packet header.
      
      Facility markers are made up of two octets, and may be present in the x25
      packet headers of call-request, incoming call, call accepted, clear request,
      and clear indication packets.  The first of the two octets represents the
      facility code field and is set to zero by this patch.  The second octet of the
      marker represents the facility parameter field and is set to 0x0F because the
      marker will be inserted before ITU-T type DTE facilities.
      
      Since according to ITU-T X.25 Recommendation X.25(10/96)- 7.1 "All networks
      will support the facility markers with a facility parameter field set to all
      ones or to 00001111", therefore this patch should work with all x.25 networks.
      
      While there are many ITU-T DTE facilities, this patch implements only the
      called and calling address extension, with placeholders in the
      x25_dte_facilities structure for the rest of the facilities.
      
      Testing:
      
      This patch was tested using a cisco xot router connected on its serial ports
      to an X.25 network, and on its lan ports to a host running an xotd daemon.
      
      It is also possible to test this patch using an xotd daemon and an x25tap
      patch, where the xotd daemons work back-to-back without actually using an x.25
      network.  See www.fyonne.net for details on how to do this.
