* atm: [br2684] Fix oops due to skb->dev being NULLJorge Boncompte [DTI2]2008-06-16
| | | | | | | | | | It happens that if a packet arrives in a VC between the call to open it on the hardware and the call to change the backend to br2684, br2684_regvcc processes the packet and oopses dereferencing skb->dev because it is NULL before the call to br2684_push().

* raw: Restore /proc/net/raw correct behaviorEric Dumazet2008-06-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | I just noticed "cat /proc/net/raw" was buggy, missing '\n' separators. I believe this was introduced by commit 8cd850efa4948d57a2ed836911cfd1ab299e89c6 ([RAW]: Cleanup IPv4 raw_seq_show.) This trivial patch restores correct behavior, and applies to current Linus tree (should also be applied to stable tree as well.)

* net: Fix test for VLAN TX checksum offload capabilityBen Hutchings2008-06-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Selected device feature bits can be propagated to VLAN devices, so we can make use of TX checksum offload and TSO on VLAN-tagged packets. However, if the physical device does not do VLAN tag insertion or generic checksum offload then the test for TX checksum offload in dev_queue_xmit() will see a protocol of htons(ETH_P_8021Q) and yield false. This splits the checksum offload test into two functions: - can_checksum_protocol() tests a given protocol against a feature bitmask - dev_can_checksum() first tests the skb protocol against the device features; if that fails and the protocol is htons(ETH_P_8021Q) then it tests the encapsulated protocol against the effective device features for VLANs Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <bhutchings@solarflare.com> Acked-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> Signed-off-by: David S.

* sctp: Correclty set changeover_active for SFR-CACCVlad Yasevich2008-06-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Right now, any time we set a primary transport we set the changeover_active flag. As a result, we invoke SFR-CACC even when there has been no changeover events. Only set changeover_active, when there is a true changeover event, i.e. we had a primary path and we are changing to another transport.

* tcp: Revert reset of deferred accept changes in 2.6.26David S. Miller2008-06-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Ingo's system is still seeing strange behavior, and he reports that is goes away if the rest of the deferred accept changes are reverted too. Therefore this reverts e4c78840284f3f51b1896cf3936d60a6033c4d2c ("[TCP]: TCP_DEFER_ACCEPT updates - dont retxmt synack") and 539fae89bebd16ebeafd57a87169bc56eb530d76 ("[TCP]: TCP_DEFER_ACCEPT updates - defer timeout conflicts with max_thresh").

* ipv6 sit: Avoid extra need for compat layer in PRL management.YOSHIFUJI Hideaki2008-06-16

This change causes several problems, first reported by Ingo Molnar as a distcc-over-loopback regression where connections were getting stuck. Ilpo Järvinen first spotted the locking problems. The new function added by this code, tcp_defer_accept_check(), only has the child socket locked, yet it is modifying state of the parent listening socket. Fixing that is non-trivial at best, because we can't simply just grab the parent listening socket lock at this point, because it would create an ABBA deadlock. The normal ordering is parent listening socket --> child socket, but this code path would require the reverse lock ordering. Next is a problem noticed by Vitaliy Gusev, he noted: ---------------------------------------- >--- a/net/ipv4/tcp_timer.c >+++ b/net/ipv4/tcp_timer.c >@@ -481,6 +481,11 @@ static void tcp_keepalive_timer (unsigned long data) > goto death; > } > >+ if (tp->defer_tcp_accept.request && sk->sk_state == TCP_ESTABLISHED) { >+ tcp_send_active_reset(sk, GFP_ATOMIC); >+ goto death; Here socket sk is not attached to listening socket's request queue. tcp_done() will not call inet_csk_destroy_sock() (and tcp_v4_destroy_sock() which should release this sk) as socket is not DEAD. Therefore socket sk will be lost for freeing. ---------------------------------------- Finally, Alexey Kuznetsov argues that there might not even be any real value or advantage to these new semantics even if we fix all of the bugs: ---------------------------------------- Hiding from accept() sockets with only out-of-order data only is the only thing which is impossible with old approach. Is this really so valuable? My opinion: no, this is nothing but a new loophole to consume memory without control. ---------------------------------------- So revert this thing for now.

The ipv4 part was fine, but the ipv6 part was not done correctly. Unlike the ipv4 side, the ipv6 code already has a .destroy method for rawv6_prot. So now there were two assignments to this member, and what the compiler does is use the last one, effectively making the ipv6 parts of that changeset a NOP. Fix this by removing the: .destroy = inet6_destroy_sock, line, and adding an inet6_destroy_sock() call to the end of raw6_destroy(). Noticed by Al Viro. Signed-off-by: David S.

One such case is linkwatch, it is a work struct which tries to grab the RTNL semaphore. The most common case are net driver ->stop() methods. The simplest conversion is to instead use cancel_{delayed_}work_sync() explicitly on the various work struct the driver uses. This is an OK transformation because these work structs are doing things like resetting the chip, restarting link negotiation, and so forth. And if we're bringing down the device, we're about to turn the chip off and reset it anways. So if we cancel a pending work event, that's fine here. Some drivers were working around this deadlock by using a msleep() polling loop of some sort, and those cases are converted to instead use cancel_{delayed_}work_sync() as well.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This fixes a bug in computing the inter-packet-interval t_ipi = s/X: scaled_div32(a, b) uses u32 for b, but in "scaled_div32(s, X)" the type of the sending rate `X' is u64. Since X is scaled by 2^6, this truncates rates greater than 2^26 Bps (~537 Mbps). Using full 64-bit division now. Signed-off-by: Gerrit Renker <gerrit@erg.abdn.ac.uk>
