When a new wimax_dev is created, it's state has to be __WIMAX_ST_NULL until wimax_dev_add() is succesfully called. This allows calls into the stack that happen before said time to be rejected. Until now, the state was being set (by mistake) to UNINITIALIZED, which was allowing calls such as wimax_report_rfkill_hw() to go through even when a call to wimax_dev_add() had failed; that was causing an oops when touching uninitialized data. This situation is normal when the device starts reporting state before the whole initialization has been completed. It just has to be dealt with.

When sending a message to user space using wimax_msg(), if nla_put() fails, correctly interpret the return code from wimax_msg_alloc() as an err ptr and return the error code instead of crashing (as it is assuming than non-NULL means the pointer is ok).

Setting the name of a sysfs device has to be done in a context that can actually sleep. It allocates its memory with GFP_KERNEL. Previously it was a static (size limited) string and that got changed to accommodate longer device names. So move the dev_set_name() just before calling device_add() which is executed in a work queue. This fixes the following error: [ 110.012125] BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at mm/slub.c:1595 [ 110.012135] in_atomic(): 1, irqs_disabled(): 0, pid: 0, name: swapper [ 110.012141] 2 locks held by swapper/0: [ 110.012145] #0: (hci_task_lock){++.-.+}, at: [<ffffffffa01f822f>] hci_rx_task+0x2f/0x2d0 [bluetooth] [ 110.012173] #1: (&hdev->lock){+.-.+.}, at: [<ffffffffa01fb9e2>] hci_event_packet+0x72/0x25c0 [bluetooth] [ 110.012198] Pid: 0, comm: swapper Tainted: G W 2.6.30-rc4-g953cdaa #1 [ 110.012203] Call Trace: [ 110.012207] <IRQ> [<ffffffff8023eabd>] __might_sleep+0x14d/0x170 [ 110.012228] [<ffffffff802cfbe1>] __kmalloc+0x111/0x170 [ 110.012239] [<ffffffff803c2094>] kvasprintf+0x64/0xb0 [ 110.012248] [<ffffffff803b7a5b>] kobject_set_name_vargs+0x3b/0xa0 [ 110.012257] [<ffffffff80465326>] dev_set_name+0x76/0xa0 [ 110.012273] [<ffffffffa01fb9e2>] ? hci_event_packet+0x72/0x25c0 [bluetooth] [ 110.012289] [<ffffffffa01ffc1d>] hci_conn_add_sysfs+0x3d/0x70 [bluetooth] [ 110.012303] [<ffffffffa01fba2c>] hci_event_packet+0xbc/0x25c0 [bluetooth] [ 110.012312] [<ffffffff80516eb0>] ? sock_def_readable+0x80/0xa0 [ 110.012328] [<ffffffffa01fee0c>] ? hci_send_to_sock+0xfc/0x1c0 [bluetooth] [ 110.012343] [<ffffffff80516eb0>] ? sock_def_readable+0x80/0xa0 [ 110.012347] [<ffffffff805e88c5>] ? _read_unlock+0x75/0x80 [ 110.012354] [<ffffffffa01fee0c>] ? hci_send_to_sock+0xfc/0x1c0 [bluetooth] [ 110.012360] [<ffffffffa01f8403>] hci_rx_task+0x203/0x2d0 [bluetooth] [ 110.012365] [<ffffffff80250ab5>] tasklet_action+0xb5/0x160 [ 110.012369] [<ffffffff8025116c>] __do_softirq+0x9c/0x150 [ 110.012372] [<ffffffff805e850f>] ? _spin_unlock+0x3f/0x80 [ 110.012376] [<ffffffff8020cbbc>] call_softirq+0x1c/0x30 [ 110.012380] [<ffffffff8020f01d>] do_softirq+0x8d/0xe0 [ 110.012383] [<ffffffff80250df5>] irq_exit+0xc5/0xe0 [ 110.012386] [<ffffffff8020e71d>] do_IRQ+0x9d/0x120 [ 110.012389] [<ffffffff8020c3d3>] ret_from_intr+0x0/0xf [ 110.012391] <EOI> [<ffffffff80431832>] ? acpi_idle_enter_bm+0x264/0x2a6 [ 110.012399] [<ffffffff80431828>] ? acpi_idle_enter_bm+0x25a/0x2a6 [ 110.012403] [<ffffffff804f50d5>] ? cpuidle_idle_call+0xc5/0x130 [ 110.012407] [<ffffffff8020a4b4>] ? cpu_idle+0xc4/0x130 [ 110.012411] [<ffffffff805d2268>] ? rest_init+0x88/0xb0 [ 110.012416] [<ffffffff807e2fbd>] ? start_kernel+0x3b5/0x412 [ 110.012420] [<ffffffff807e2281>] ? x86_64_start_reservations+0x91/0xb5 [ 110.012424] [<ffffffff807e2394>] ? x86_64_start_kernel+0xef/0x11b Based on a report by Davide Pesavento <davidepesa@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: NMarcel Holtmann <marcel@holtmann.org> Tested-by: NHugo Mildenberger <hugo.mildenberger@namir.de> Tested-by: NBing Zhao <bzhao@marvell.com>

This patch fixes a problem when you use 32 nodes in the cluster match: % iptables -I PREROUTING -t mangle -i eth0 -m cluster \ --cluster-total-nodes 32 --cluster-local-node 32 \ --cluster-hash-seed 0xdeadbeef -j MARK --set-mark 0xffff iptables: Invalid argument. Run `dmesg' for more information. % dmesg | tail -1 xt_cluster: this node mask cannot be higher than the total number of nodes The problem is related to this checking: if (info->node_mask >= (1 << info->total_nodes)) { printk(KERN_ERR "xt_cluster: this node mask cannot be " "higher than the total number of nodes\n"); return false; } (1 << 32) is 1. Thus, the checking fails. BTW, I said this before but I insist: I have only tested the cluster match with 2 nodes getting ~45% extra performance in an active-active setup. The maximum limit of 32 nodes is still completely arbitrary. I'd really appreciate if people that have more nodes in their setups let me know.

Due to a semantic changes in flush_workqueue() the current approach of synchronizing the sysfs handling for connections doesn't work anymore. The whole approach is actually fully broken and based on assumptions that are no longer valid. With the introduction of Simple Pairing support, the creation of low-level ACL links got changed. This change invalidates the reason why in the past two independent work queues have been used for adding/removing sysfs devices. The adding of the actual sysfs device is now postponed until the host controller successfully assigns an unique handle to that link. So the real synchronization happens inside the controller and not the host. The only left-over problem is that some internals of the sysfs device handling are not initialized ahead of time. This leaves potential access to invalid data and can cause various NULL pointer dereferences. To fix this a new function makes sure that all sysfs details are initialized when an connection attempt is made. The actual sysfs device is only registered when the connection has been successfully established. To avoid a race condition with the registration, the check if a device is registered has been moved into the removal work. As an extra protection two flush_work() calls are left in place to make sure a previous add/del work has been completed first.

pid doesn't count with some band having more bitrates than the one associated the first time. Fix that by counting the maximal available bitrate count and allocate big enough space. Secondly, fix touching uninitialized memory which causes panics. Index sucked from this random memory points to the hell. The fix is to sort the rates on each band change.

minstrel doesn't count max rate count in fact, since it doesn't use a loop variable `i' and hence allocs space only for bitrates found in the first band. Fix it by involving the `i' as an index so that it traverses all the bands now and finds the real max bitrate count.

We forgot to lock using the cfg80211_mutex in wiphy_apply_custom_regulatory(). Without the lock there is possible race between processing a reply from CRDA and a driver calling wiphy_apply_custom_regulatory().

When skb_rx_queue_recorded() is true, we dont want to use jash distribution as the device driver exactly told us which queue was selected at RX time. jhash makes a statistical shuffle, but this wont work with 8 static inputs. Later improvements would be to compute reciprocal value of real_num_tx_queues to avoid a divide here. But this computation should be done once, when real_num_tx_queues is set.

In "mac80211: correct wext transmit power handler" I fixed the wext handler, but forgot to make the default of the user_power_level -1 (aka "auto"), so that now the transmit power is always set to 0, causing associations to time out and similar problems since we're transmitting with very little power. Correct this by correcting the default user_power_level to -1.

- ieee80211_wep_init(), which is called with rtnl_lock held, blocks in request_module() [waiting for modprobe to load a crypto module]. - modprobe blocks in a call to flush_workqueue(), when it closes a TTY [presumably when it exits]. - The workqueue item linkwatch_event() blocks on rtnl_lock. There's no reason for wep_init() to be called with rtnl_lock held, so just move it outside the critical section. Signed-off-by: NAlan Jenkins <alan-jenkins@tuffmail.co.uk> Signed-off-by: NJohn W.

The x_tables are organized with a table structure and a per-cpu copies of the counters and rules. On older kernels there was a reader/writer lock per table which was a performance bottleneck. In 2.6.30-rc, this was converted to use RCU and the counters/rules which solved the performance problems for do_table but made replacing rules much slower because of the necessary RCU grace period. This version uses a per-cpu set of spinlocks and counters to allow to table processing to proceed without the cache thrashing of a global reader lock and keeps the same performance for table updates.

The Bluetooth 2.1 specification introduced four different security modes that can be mapped using Legacy Pairing and Simple Pairing. With the usage of Simple Pairing it is required that all connections (except the ones for SDP) are encrypted. So even the low security requirement mandates an encrypted connection when using Simple Pairing. When using Legacy Pairing (for Bluetooth 2.0 devices and older) this is not required since it causes interoperability issues. To support this properly the low security requirement translates into different host controller transactions depending if Simple Pairing is supported or not. However in case of Simple Pairing the command to switch on encryption after a successful authentication is not triggered for the low security mode. This patch fixes this and actually makes the logic to differentiate between Simple Pairing and Legacy Pairing a lot simpler.

The Bluetooth stack uses a reference counting for all established ACL links and if no user (L2CAP connection) is present, the link will be terminated to save power. The problem part is the dedicated pairing when using Legacy Pairing (Bluetooth 2.0 and before). At that point no user is present and pairing attempts will be disconnected within 10 seconds or less. In previous kernel version this was not a problem since the disconnect timeout wasn't triggered on incoming connections for the first time. However this caused issues with broken host stacks that kept the connections around after dedicated pairing. When the support for Simple Pairing got added, the link establishment procedure needed to be changed and now causes issues when using Legacy Pairing When using Simple Pairing it is possible to do a proper reference counting of ACL link users. With Legacy Pairing this is not possible since the specification is unclear in some areas and too many broken Bluetooth devices have already been deployed. So instead of trying to deal with all the broken devices, a special pairing timeout will be introduced that increases the timeout to 60 seconds when pairing is triggered. If a broken devices now puts the stack into an unforeseen state, the worst that happens is the disconnect timeout triggers after 120 seconds instead of 4 seconds. This allows successful pairings with legacy and broken devices now. Based on a report by Johan Hedberg <johan.hedberg@nokia.com> Signed-off-by: NMarcel Holtmann <marcel@holtmann.org>

In 2.6.25 we added UDP mem accounting. This unfortunatly added a penalty when a frame is transmitted, since we have at TX completion time to call sock_wfree() to perform necessary memory accounting. This calls sock_def_write_space() and utimately scheduler if any thread is waiting on the socket. Thread(s) waiting for an incoming frame was scheduled, then had to sleep again as event was meaningless. (All threads waiting on a socket are using same sk_sleep anchor) This adds lot of extra wakeups and increases latencies, as noted by Christoph Lameter, and slows down softirq handler. Reference : http://marc.info/?l=linux-netdev&m=124060437012283&w=2 Fortunatly, Davide Libenzi recently added concept of keyed wakeups into kernel, and particularly for sockets (see commit 37e5540b epoll keyed wakeups: make sockets use keyed wakeups) Davide goal was to optimize epoll, but this new wakeup infrastructure can help non epoll users as well, if they care to setup an appropriate handler. This patch introduces new DEFINE_WAIT_FUNC() helper and uses it in wait_for_packet(), so that only relevant event can wakeup a thread blocked in this function. Trace of function calls from bnx2 TX completion bnx2_poll_work() is : __kfree_skb() skb_release_head_state() sock_wfree() sock_def_write_space() __wake_up_sync_key() __wake_up_common() receiver_wake_function() : Stops here since thread is waiting for an INPUT Reported-by: NChristoph Lameter <cl@linux.com> Signed-off-by: NEric Dumazet <dada1@cosmosbay.com> Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

Right now we have no upper limit on the size of the route cache hash table. On a 128GB POWER6 box it ends up as 32MB: IP route cache hash table entries: 4194304 (order: 9, 33554432 bytes) It would be nice to cap this for memory consumption reasons, but a massive hashtable also causes a significant spike when measuring OS jitter. With a 32MB hashtable and 4 million entries, rt_worker_func is taking 5 ms to complete. On another system with more memory it's taking 14 ms. Even though rt_worker_func does call cond_sched() to limit its impact, in an HPC environment we want to keep all sources of OS jitter to a minimum. With the patch applied we limit the number of entries to 512k which can still be overriden by using the rt_entries boot option: IP route cache hash table entries: 524288 (order: 6, 4194304 bytes) With this patch rt_worker_func now takes 0.460 ms on the same system.

Currently, the VLAN event handler does not adjust the VLAN device's carrier state when the real device or the VLAN device is set administratively up or down. The following patch adds a transfer of operating state from the real device to the VLAN device when the real device is administratively set up or down, and sets the carrier state up or down during init, open and close of the VLAN device. This permits observers above the VLAN device that care about the carrier state (bonding's link monitor, for example) to receive updates for administrative changes by more closely mimicing the behavior of real devices.
