* batman-adv: process broadcast packets in BLA earlierAntonio Quartulli2012-11-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The logic in the BLA mechanism may decide to drop broadcast packets because the node may still be in the setup phase. For this reason, further broadcast processing like the early client detection mechanism must be done only after the BLA check. This patches moves the invocation to BLA before any other broadcast processing. This was introduced 30cfd02b60e1cb16f5effb0a01f826c5bb7e4c59 ("batman-adv: detect not yet announced clients") Reported-by: Glen Page <glen.page@thet.net> Signed-off-by: Simon Wunderlich <siwu@hrz.tu-chemnitz.de> Signed-off-by: Antonio Quartulli <ordex@autistici.org> Signed-off-by: Marek Lindner <lindner_marek@yahoo.de>
* batman-adv: don't add TEMP clients belonging to other backbone nodesAntonio Quartulli2012-11-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | The "early client detection" mechanism must not add clients belonging to other backbone nodes. Such clients must be reached by directly using the LAN instead of the mesh.

* batman-adv: fix tt_global_entries flags updateAntonio Quartulli2012-11-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Flags carried by a change_entry have to be always copied into the client entry as they may contain important attributes (e.g. TT_CLIENT_WIFI). For instance, a client added by means of the "early detection mechanism" has no flag set at the beginning, so they must be updated once the proper ADD event is received.

* Revert "drivers/net/phy/mdio-bitbang.c: Call mdiobus_unregister before ↵David S. Miller2012-11-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | mdiobus_free" This reverts commit aa731872f7d33dcb8b54dad0cfb82d4e4d195d7e. As pointed out by Ben Hutchings, this change is not correct. mdiobus_unregister() can't be called if the bus isn't registered yet, however this change can result in situations which cause that to happen. Part of the confusion here revolves around the fact that the callers of this module control registration/unregistration, rather than the module itself. Signed-off-by: David S.

* net/smsc911x: Fix ready check in cases where WORD_SWAP is neededKamlakant Patel2012-11-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The chip ready check added by the commit 3ac3546e [Always wait for the chip to be ready] does not work when the register read/write is word swapped. This check has been added before the WORD_SWAP register is programmed, so we need to check for swapped register value as well. Bit 16 is marked as RESERVED in SMSC datasheet, Steve Glendinning <steve@shawell.net> checked with SMSC and wrote: The chip architects have concluded we should be reading PMT_CTRL until we see any of bits 0, 8, 16 or 24 set. Then we should read BYTE_TEST to check the byte order is correct (as we already do). The rationale behind this is that some of the chip variants have word order swapping features too, so the READY bit could actually be in any of the 4 possible locations. The architects have confirmed that if any of these 4 positions is set the chip is ready. The other 3 locations will either never be set or can only go high after READY does (so also indicate the device is ready). This change will check for the READY bit at the 16th position. We do not check the other two cases (bit 8 and 24) since the driver does not support byte-swapped register read/write.

* drivers/net: fix tasklet misuse issueXiaotian Feng2012-11-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In commit 175c0dff, drivers uses tasklet_kill to avoid put disabled tasklet on the tasklet vec. But some of the drivers uses tasklet_init & tasklet_disable in the driver init code, then tasklet_enable when it is opened. This makes tasklet_enable on a killed tasklet and make ksoftirqd crazy then. Normally, drivers should use tasklet_init/tasklet_kill on device open/remove, and use tasklet_disable/tasklet_enable on device suspend/resume.

* ipv4/ip_vti.c: VTI fix post-decryption forwardingSaurabh Mohan2012-11-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With the latest kernel there are two things that must be done post decryption so that the packet are forwarded. 1. Remove the mark from the packet. This will cause the packet to not match the ipsec-policy again. However doing this causes the post-decryption check to fail also and the packet will get dropped. (cat /proc/net/xfrm_stat). 2. Remove the sp association in the skbuff so that no policy check is done on the packet for VTI tunnels. Due to #2 above we must now do a security-policy check in the vti rcv path prior to resetting the mark in the skbuff.

* vxlan: Fix error that was resulting in VXLAN MTU size being 10 bytes too largeAlexander Duyck2012-11-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | This change fixes an issue I found where VXLAN frames were fragmented when they were up to the VXLAN MTU size. I root caused the issue to the fact that the headroom was 4 + 20 + 8 + 8. This math doesn't appear to be correct because we are not inserting a VLAN header, but instead a 2nd Ethernet header. As such the math for the overhead should be 20 + 8 + 8 + 14 to account for the extra headers that are inserted for VXLAN.

* tcp: tcp_replace_ts_recent() should not be called from tcp_validate_incoming()Eric Dumazet2012-11-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We added support for RFC 5961 in latest kernels but TCP fails to perform exhaustive check of ACK sequence. We can update our view of peer tsval from a frame that is later discarded by tcp_ack() This makes timestamps enabled sessions vulnerable to injection of a high tsval : peers start an ACK storm, since the victim sends a dupack each time it receives an ACK from the other peer. As tcp_validate_incoming() is called before tcp_ack(), we should not peform tcp_replace_ts_recent() from it, and let callers do it at the right time.

* net: cdc_ncm: add Huawei devicesBjørn Mork2012-11-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A number of Huawei 3G and LTE modems implement a CDC NCM function, including the necessary functional descriptors, but using a non standard interface layout and class/subclass/protocol codes. These devices can be handled by this driver with only a minor change to the probing logic, allowing a single combined control and data interface. This works because the devices - include a CDC Union descriptor labelling the combined interface as both master and slave, and - have an alternate setting #1 for the bulk endpoints on the combined interface. The 3G/LTE network connection is managed by vendor specific AT commands on a serial function in the same composite device. Handling the managment function is out of the scope of this driver. It will be handled by an appropriate USB serial driver.

* qeth: set new mac even if old mac is goneUrsula Braun2012-11-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If the set_mac_address() function of qeth is invoked, qeth deletes the old mac address first on OSA. Only if deletion returns successfully the new mac address is set on OSA. Deletion may return with a return value "MAC not found on OSA". In this case qeth should continue setting the new mac address. When the OSA cable is pulled, OSA forgets any set mac address. If the OSA network interface acts as a slave to a bonding master interface, bonding can invoke the set_mac_address function for failover purposes and depends on successful setting of the new mac address even though the old mac address could no longer be deleted.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If a gianfar ethernet device is down prior to hibernating a system, it will no longer be present upon system restore. For example: ~# ifconfig eth0 down ~# echo disk > /sys/power/state <trigger a restore from hibernation> ~# ifconfig eth0 up SIOCSIFFLAGS: No such device This happens because the restore function bails out early upon finding devices that were not up at hibernation. In doing so, it never gets to the netif_device_attach call at the end of the restore function. Adding the netif_device_attach as done here also makes the gfar_restore code consistent with what is done in the gfar_resume code.

This problem occurs with TSO/GSO even if the max packet size is set to the MTU, and is, e.g., the cause of the failure reported in [1]. Two patches have been proposed to solve this problem in [2], one of them is a preliminary version of this patch. This patch addresses the above issues by: 1) setting QFQ parameters to proper values for supporting TSO/GSO (in particular, setting the maximum possible packet size to 64KB), 2) automatically increasing the max packet size for a class, lmax, when a packet with a larger size than the current value of lmax arrives. The drawback of the first point is that the maximum weight for a class is now limited to 4096, which is equal to 1/16 of the maximum weight sum. Finally, this patch also forcibly caps the timestamps of a class if they are too high to be stored in the bucket list. This capping, taken from QFQ+ [3], handles the unfrequent case described in the comment to the function slot_insert.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | f7b2927 introduced tx checksum offload support for smsc95xx, and enabled it by default. This feature doesn't take endianness into account, so causes most tx to fail on those platforms. This patch fixes the problem fully by adding the missing conversion. An alternate workaround is to disable TX checksum offload on those platforms. The cpu impact of this feature is very low.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Change the dflt fdb dump handler to use RTM_NEWNEIGH to be compatible with bridge dump routines. The dump reply from the network driver handlers should match the reply from bridge handler. The fact they were not in the ixgbe case was effectively a bug. This patch resolves it. Applications that were not checking the nlmsg type will continue to work. And now applications that do check the type will work as expected.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some driver uses tasklet_disable in device remove/close process, tasklet_disable will inc tasklet->count and return. If the tasklet is not handled yet because some softirq pressure, the tasklet will placed on the tasklet_vec, never have a chance to excute. This might lead to ksoftirqd heavy loaded, wakeup with pending_softirq, but tasklet is disabled. tasklet_kill should be used in this case.

Reported by Meelis Roos. 2) Make the montgomery multiple/square and mpmul instructions actually usable in 32-bit tasks. Essentially this involves providing 32-bit userspace with a way to use a 64-bit stack when it needs to. 3) Our sparc64 atomic backoffs don't yield cpu strands properly on Niagara chips. Use pause instruction when available to achieve this, otherwise use a benign instruction we know blocks the strand for some time. 4) Wire up kcmp 5) Fix the build of various drivers by removing the unnecessary blocking of OF_GPIO when SPARC. 6) Fix unintended regression wherein of_address_to_resource stopped being provided.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We tried linking in a single built object to hold the device table, but only works if all of the sparc64 crypto modules get built the same way (modular vs. non-modular). Just include the device ID stub into each driver source file so that the table gets compiled into the correct result in all cases. Reported-by: Meelis Roos <mroos@linux.ee> Signed-off-by: David S.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Sparc32 already supported it, as a consequence of using the generic atomic64 implementation. And the sparc64 implementation is rather trivial. This allows us to set ARCH_HAS_ATOMIC64_DEC_IF_POSITIVE for all of sparc, and avoid the annoying warning from lib/atomic64_test.c Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

A number of drivers in mainline relies on this function working for sparc. The bug was introduced in a850a7554442f08d3e910c6eeb4ee216868dda1e, "of/address: add empty static inlines for !CONFIG_OF". Contrary to that commit title, the static inlines are added for !CONFIG_OF_ADDRESS, and CONFIG_OF_ADDRESS is never defined for sparc. This is good behavior for the other functions in include/linux/of_address.h, as the extern functions defined in drivers/of/address.c only gets linked when OF_ADDRESS is configured. However, for of_address_to_resource there exists a sparc-specific implementation in arch/sparc/arch/sparc/kernel/of_device_common.c Solution suggested by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org> Signed-off-by: Andreas Larsson <andreas@gaisler.com> Acked-by: Rob Herring <rob.herring@calxeda.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This adds sparc support for platform_get_irq that in the normal case use platform_get_resource() to get an irq. This standard approach fails for sparc as there are no resources of type IORESOURCE_IRQ for irqs for sparc. Cross platform drivers can then use this standard platform function and work on sparc instead of having to have a special case for sparc.
