* [NET]: Return more appropriate error from eth_validate_addr().Patrick McHardy2008-04-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Paul Bolle wrote: > http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9923 would have been much easier to > track down if eth_validate_addr() would somehow complain aloud if an address > is invalid. Shouldn't it make at least some noise? I guess it should return -EADDRNOTAVAIL similar to eth_mac_addr() when validation fails.

| | | | | | | | | | Commit bada339 (Validate device addr prior to interface-up) caused a regression in the ISDN network code, see: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9923 The trivial fix is to remove the pointer to eth_validate_addr() in the net_device struct in isdn_net_init().

* [SCTP]: IPv4 vs IPv6 addresses mess in sctp_inet[6]addr_event.Pavel Emelyanov2008-04-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | All IP addresses that are present in a system are duplicated on struct sctp_sockaddr_entry. They are linked in the global list called sctp_local_addr_list. And this struct unions IPv4 and IPv6 addresses. So, there can be rare case, when a sockaddr_in.sin_addr coincides with the corresponding part of the sockaddr_in6 and the notifier for IPv4 will carry away an IPv6 entry. The fix is to check the family before comparing the addresses. Signed-off-by: Pavel Emelyanov <xemul@openvz.org> Signed-off-by: Vlad Yasevich <vladislav.yasevich@hp.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

* [DCCP]: Fix skb->cb conflicts with IPPatrick McHardy2008-04-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | dev_queue_xmit() and the other IP output functions expect to get a skb with clear or properly initialized skb->cb. Unlike TCP and UDP, the dccp_skb_cb doesn't contain a struct inet_skb_parm at the beginning, so the DCCP-specific data is interpreted by the IP output functions. This can cause false negatives for the conditional POST_ROUTING hook invocation, making the packet bypass the hook. Add a inet_skb_parm/inet6_skb_parm union to the beginning of dccp_skb_cb to avoid clashes. Also add a BUILD_BUG_ON to make sure it fits in the cb.

* tg3: fix MMIO for PPC 44x platformsSergei Shtylyov2008-04-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The driver stores the PCI resource addresses into 'unsigned long' variable before calling ioremap_nocache() on them. This warrants kernel oops when the registers are accessed on PPC 44x platforms which (being 32-bit) have PCI memory space mapped beyond 4 GB. The arch/ppc/ kernel has a fixup in ioremap() that creates an illusion that the PCI memory resource is mapped below 4 GB, but arch/powerpc/ code got rid of this trick, having instead CONFIG_RESOURCES_64BIT enabled.

* forcedeth: mac address fixAyaz Abdulla2008-04-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This critical patch fixes a mac address issue recently introduced. If the device's mac address was in correct order and the flag NVREG_TRANSMITPOLL_MAC_ADDR_REV was set, during nv_remove the flag would get cleared. During next load, the mac address would get reversed because the flag is missing. As it has been indicated previously, the flag is cleared across a low power transition. Therefore, the driver should set the mac address back into the reversed order when clearing the flag. Also, the driver should set back the flag after a low power transition to protect against kexec command calling nv_probe a second time.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This fixes kernel bugzilla 10371. As reported by M.Piechaczek@osmosys.tv, if we try to grab a char sized socket option value, as in: unsigned char ttl = 255; socklen_t len = sizeof(ttl); setsockopt(socket, IPPROTO_IP, IP_MULTICAST_TTL, &ttl, &len); getsockopt(socket, IPPROTO_IP, IP_MULTICAST_TTL, &ttl, &len); The ttl returned will be wrong on big-endian, and on both little- endian and big-endian the next three bytes in userspace are written with garbage. It's because of this test in do_ip_getsockopt(): if (len < sizeof(int) && len > 0 && val>=0 && val<255) { It should allow a 'val' of 255 to pass here, but it doesn't so it copies a full 'int' back to userspace. On little-endian that will write the correct value into the location but it spams on the next three bytes in userspace. On big endian it writes the wrong value into the location and spams the next three bytes. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Thus it's safer to not run FRTO while MTU probe is underway.

The simplest scenario I can currently think of is rather complex in practice (there might be some more straightforward cases though). Ie., if mss is reduced during mtu probing, it may end up marking everything lost and if some duplicate ACKs arrived prior to that sacked_out will be non-zero as well, leading to S+L > packets_out, tcp_clean_rtx_queue on the next cumulative ACK or tcp_fastretrans_alert on the next duplicate ACK will fix the S counter. More straightforward (but questionable) solution would be to just call tcp_reset_reno_sack() in tcp_simple_retransmit but it would negatively impact the probe's retransmission, ie., the retransmissions would not occur if some duplicate ACKs had arrived. So I had to add reno sacked_out reseting to CA_Loss state when the first cumulative ACK arrives (this stale sacked_out might actually be the explanation for the reports of left_out overflows in kernel prior to 2.6.23 and S+L overflow reports of 2.6.24). However, this alone won't be enough to fix kernel before 2.6.24 because it is building on top of the commit 1b6d427bb7e ([TCP]: Reduce sacked_out with reno when purging write_queue) to keep the sacked_out from overflowing.

* | [TCP]: Fix NewReno's fast rexmit/recovery problems with GSOed skbIlpo Järvinen2008-04-08

With GSO the whole head skb was marked as LOST which is in violation of NewReno procedure that only wants to mark one packet and ended up breaking our TCP code by causing counter overflow because our code was built on top of assumption about valid NewReno procedure. This manifested as triggering a WARN_ON for the overflow in a number of places. It seems relatively safe alternative to just do nothing if tcp_fragment fails due to oom because another duplicate ACK is likely to be received soon and the fragmentation will be retried. Special thanks goes to Soeren Sonnenburg <kernel@nn7.de> who was lucky enough to be able to reproduce this so that the warning for the overflow was hit. It's not as easy task as it seems even if this bug happens quite often because the amount of outstanding data is pretty significant for the mismarkings to lead to an overflow. Because it's very late in 2.6.25-rc cycle (if this even makes in time), I didn't want to touch anything with SACK enabled here. Fragmenting might be useful for it as well but it's more or less a policy decision rather than mandatory fix. Thus there's no need to rush and we can postpone considering tcp_fragment with SACK for 2.6.26. In 2.6.24 and earlier, this very same bug existed but the effect is slightly different because of a small changes in the if conditions that fit to the patch's context. With them nothing got lost marker and thus no retransmissions happened. Signed-off-by: Ilpo Järvinen <ilpo.jarvinen@helsinki.fi> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
