* net/garp: avoid infinite loop if attribute already existsDavid Ward2012-04-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | An infinite loop occurred if garp_attr_create was called with the values of an existing attribute. This might happen if a previous leave request for the attribute has not yet been followed by a PDU transmission (or, if the application previously issued a join request for the attribute and is now issuing another one, without having issued a leave request). If garp_attr_create finds an existing attribute having the same values, return the address to it. Its state will then get updated (i.e., if it was in a leaving state, it will move into a non-leaving state and not get deleted during the next PDU transmission). To accomplish this fix, collapse garp_attr_insert into garp_attr_create (which is its only caller). Thanks to Jorge Boncompte [DTI2] <jorge@dti2.net> for contributing to this fix.

* | bonding: emit event when bonding changes MACWeiping Pan2012-03-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When a bonding device is configured with fail_over_mac=active, we expect to see the MAC address of the new active slave as the source MAC address after failover. But we see that the source MAC address is the MAC address of previous active slave. Emit NETDEV_CHANGEADDR event when bonding changes its MAC address, in order to let arp_netdev_event flush neighbour cache and route cache. How to reproduce this bug ? -----------hostB---------------- hostA ----- switch ---|-- eth0--bond0(192.168.100.2/24)| (192.168.100.1/24 \--|-- eth1-/ | -------------------------------- 1 on hostB, modprobe bonding mode=1 miimon=500 fail_over_mac=active downdelay=1000 num_grat_arp=1 ifconfig bond0 192.168.100.2/24 up ifenslave bond0 eth0 ifenslave bond0 eth1 then eth0 is the active slave, and MAC of bond0 is MAC of eth0. 2 on hostA, ping 192.168.100.2 3 on hostB, tcpdump -i bond0 -p icmp -XXX you will see bond0 uses MAC of eth0 as source MAC in icmp reply. 4 on hostB, ifconfig eth0 down tcpdump -i bond0 -p icmp -XXX (just keep it running in step 3) you will see first bond0 uses MAC of eth1 as source MAC in icmp reply, then it will use MAC of eth0 as source MAC.

* | net/core: dev_forward_skb() should clear skb_iifBenjamin LaHaise2012-03-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | While investigating another bug, I found that the code on the incoming path in __netif_receive_skb will only set skb->skb_iif if it is already 0. When dev_forward_skb() is used in the case of interfaces like veth, skb_iif may already have been set. Making dev_forward_skb() cause the packet to look like a newly received packet would seem to the the correct behaviour here, as otherwise the wrong incoming interface can be reported for such a packet.

* | net/ipv4: fix IPv4 multicast over network namespacesBenjamin LaHaise2012-03-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When using multicast over a local bridge feeding a number of LXC guests using veth, the LXC guests are unable to get a response from other guests when pinging 224.0.0.1. Multicast packets did not appear to be getting delivered to the network namespaces of the guest hosts, and further inspection showed that the incoming route was pointing to the loopback device of the host, not the guest. This lead to the wrong network namespace being picked up by sockets (like ICMP). Fix this by using the correct network namespace when creating the inbound route entry.

The skb_checksum_help() is needed only if it's not FCoE traffic for ip checksum, regardless of ethtool toggling the tx ip checksum on or off. Instead of using CHECKSUM_PARTIAL, we will use CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY as a proper indication to avoid sw ip checksum on FCoE frames.

The FCoE protocol stack driver would use CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY on tx path instead of CHECKSUM_PARTIAL (as indicated in the 2/2 of this series). To do so, netif_needs_gso() has to be changed here to not do gso for both CHECKSUM_PARTIAL and CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY.

This hang can be triggered by sending small packets at a rate that was triggering Rx missed errors from the adapter while the internal Tx switch and at least one VF are enabled. This was all due to the fact that under heavy stress the Rx FIFO never drained below the flow control high water mark. This resulted in the Tx FIFO being head of line blocked due to the fact that it relies on the flow control high water mark to determine when it is acceptable for the Tx to place a packet in the Rx FIFO. The resolution for this is to set the FCRTH value to the RXPBSIZE - 32 so that even if the ring is almost completely full we can still place Tx packets on the Rx ring and drop incoming Rx traffic if we do not have sufficient space available in the Rx FIFO.

The mac80211 decides when to switch back to oper channel based on tx queue, bad latency and listen time. As the station does not have tx traffic, the bgscan can easily affect downlink throughput. By reducing the listen time, it helps the associated AP to retain the downstream rate.

Resolve this by formally allowing the "unspecified" units while making nl80211 ignore them. Signed-off-by: John W.

On the way fix scan canceling comment. Apparently ->post_associate() do cancel scan itself, but scan cancel on BSS_CHANGED_BSSID is needed. I'm not sure why, but when I removed it, I had frequent auth failures: wlan4: send auth to 54:e6:fc:98:63:fe (try 1/3) wlan4: send auth to 54:e6:fc:98:63:fe (try 2/3) wlan4: send auth to 54:e6:fc:98:63:fe (try 3/3) wlan4: authentication with 54:e6:fc:98:63:fe timed out Signed-off-by: Stanislaw Gruszka <sgruszka@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

| * | | | | ath9k: fix max noise floor thresholdRajkumar Manoharan2012-03-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently the maximum noise floor limit is set as too high (-60dB). The assumption of having a higher threshold limit is that it would help de-sensitize the receiver (reduce phy errors) from continuous interference. But when we have a bursty interference where there are collisions and then free air time and if the receiver is desensitized too much, it will miss the normal packets too. Lets make use of chips specific min, nom and max limits always. This patch helps to improve the connection stability in congested networks.
