Looking at the diffstat, this really is high value for its size; this is miniscule compared to how the -rc6 to tip diffstat currently looks. So, four patches in this set: - Punit Agrawal reports that the kernel no longer boots on MPCore due to a new assumption made in the GIC code which isn't true of earlier GIC designs. This is the biggest change in this set. - Punit's boot log also revealed a bunch of WARN_ON() dumps caused by the DT-ification of the GIC support without fixing up non-DT Realview - which now sees a greater number of interrupts than it did before. - A fix for the DMA coherent code from Marek which uses the wrong check for atomic allocations; this can result in spinlock lockups or other nasty effects. - A fix from Will, which will affect all Android based platforms if not applied (which use the 2G:2G VM split) - this causes particularly 'make' to misbehave unless this bug is fixed." * 'fixes' of git://git.linaro.org/people/rmk/linux-arm: ARM: 7641/1: memory: fix broken mmap by ensuring TASK_UNMAPPED_BASE is aligned ARM: DMA mapping: fix bad atomic test ARM: realview: ensure that we have sufficient IRQs available ARM: GIC: fix GIC cpumask initialization
| * ARM: 7641/1: memory: fix broken mmap by ensuring TASK_UNMAPPED_BASE is alignedWill Deacon2013-02-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We have received multiple reports of mmap failures when running with a 2:2 vm split. These manifest as either -EINVAL with a non page-aligned address (ending 0xaaa) or a SEGV, depending on the application. The issue is commonly observed in children of make, which appears to use bottom-up mmap (assumedly because it changes the stack rlimit). Further investigation reveals that this regression was triggered by 394ef6403abc ("mm: use vm_unmapped_area() on arm architecture"), whereby TASK_UNMAPPED_BASE is no longer page-aligned for bottom-up mmap, causing get_unmapped_area to choke on misaligned addressed. This patch fixes the problem by defining TASK_UNMAPPED_BASE in terms of TASK_SIZE and explicitly aligns the result to 16M, matching the other end of the heap.

Some early GIC implementations return zero for the first distributor CPU routing register. This means we can't rely on that telling us which CPU interface we're connected to. We know that these platforms implement PPIs for IRQs 29-31 - but we shouldn't assume that these will always be populated. So, instead, scan for a non-zero CPU routing register in the first 32 IRQs and use that as our CPU mask.

This is the best short-term fix for this, a longer term fix has been implemented in net-next. 11) L2TP uses ipv4 datagram routines in it's ipv6 code, whoops.

Since this check is supposed to protect OVS (and other parts of the system) from packets that it cannot handle it is obviously not useful on egress. Therefore, this commit moves it back to the receive side. The primary problem that this caused is upcalls to userspace tried to segment the packet even though no segmentation information is available. This would later cause NULL pointer dereferences when skb_gso_segment() did nothing. Signed-off-by: Jesse Gross <jesse@nicira.com>

If we spot anything which is not as it should be then shutdown the device and don't try to continue with the ring in a potentially hostile state. Well behaved and non-hostile frontends will not be penalised. As well as making the existing checks for such errors fatal also add a new check that ensures that there isn't an insane number of requests on the ring (i.e. more than would fit in the ring). If the ring contains garbage then previously is was possible to loop over this insane number, getting an error each time and therefore not generating any more pending requests and therefore not exiting the loop in xen_netbk_tx_build_gops for an externded period. Also turn various netdev_dbg calls which no precipitate a fatal error into netdev_err, they are rate limited because the device is shutdown afterwards. This fixes at least one known DoS/softlockup of the backend domain.

| | * | | brcmsmac: rework of mac80211 .flush() callback operationArend van Spriel2013-02-04

Since implementing the .flush() callback a number of issues have been fixed, but a WARN_ON_ONCE() was still triggered because the timeout on the flush could still occur. This patch changes the awkward design using msleep() into one using a waitqueue. The waiting flush() context will kick the transmit dma when it is idle and the timeout used waiting for the event is set to 500 ms. Worst case there can be 64 frames outstanding for transmit in the driver. At a rate of 1Mbps that would take 1.5 seconds assuming MTU is 1500 bytes and ignoring retries. The WARN_ON_ONCE() is also removed as this was put in to indicate the flush timeout as a reason for the driver to stall. That was not happening since fixing endless AMPDU retries with following upstream commit: commit 85091fc0a75653e239dc8379658515e577544927 Author: Arend van Spriel <arend@broadcom.com> Date: Thu Feb 23 18:38:22 2012 +0100 brcm80211: smac: fix endless retry of A-MPDU transmissions bugzilla: 42840 <https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42840> bugzilla@redhat: <https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=799168> bugzilla@redhat: <https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=787649> Cc: Jonathan Nieder <jrnieder@gmail.com> Cc: Stanislaw Gruszka <sgruszka@redhat.com> Cc: Camaleón <noelamac@gmail.com> Cc: Milan Bouchet-Valat <nalimilan@club-internet.fr> Cc: Seth Forshee <seth.forshee@canonical.com> Reviewed-by: Pieter-Paul Giesberts <pieterpg@broadcom.com> Reviewed-by: Hante Meuleman <meuleman@broadcom.com> Reviewed-by: Piotr Haber <phaber@broadcom.com> Signed-off-by: Arend van Spriel <arend@broadcom.com> Acked-by: Seth Forshee <seth.forshee@canonical.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

The backtrace indicates that routine rtl_is_special(), which calls rtl_lps_leave() in three places was entered in atomic context.

We do not want to count this as a drop, or log any debug messages. A different exit path is therefore chosen for such drivers, skipping the debug message and the tx_dropped increment. The test for accumulating drivers was however completely bogus, making the exit path selection depend on whether the user had enabled tx_err logging or not. This would arbitrarily mess up accounting for both accumulating and non-accumulating minidrivers, and would result in unwanted debug messages for the accumulating drivers. Fix by testing for FLAG_MULTI_PACKET instead, which probably was the intention from the beginning. This usage match the documented behaviour of this flag: Indicates to usbnet, that USB driver accumulates multiple IP packets. Affects statistic (counters) and short packet handling.

But when calling it for the first time, it fills req->tp_block_nr with the value of rb->pg_vec_len which in the second invocation makes it bail out since req->tp_block_nr is greater zero but req->tp_block_size is zero. This patch solves the problem by passing a zeroed auto-variable to packet_set_ring() upon each invocation from packet_release(). As far as I can tell, this issue exists even since 69e3c75 (net: TX_RING and packet mmap), i.e. the original inclusion of TX ring support into af_packet, but applies only to sockets with both RX and TX ring allocated, which is probably why this was unnoticed all the time.

This is the same as commit 7dbb491878a2c51d372a8890fa45a8ff80358af1 ("r8169: avoid NAPI scheduling delay.") made to fix the same problem in the r8169 driver. From Francois Romieu.

Linville says: ==================== This is a small batch of fixes intended for the 3.8 stream... There are two pulls from Johannes. Regarding mac80211, Johannes says: "One fix from Dan for a possible memory overrun." Regarding iwlwifi, Johannes says: "I have one fix from Emmanuel reverting a previous fix that caused more trouble than it's worth." Along with those: Arend van Spriel fixes a fatal error in brcsmac related to tx status processing. Bing Zhao corrects a problem where mwifiex would fail to complete a scan in the event of an IE processing error. Larry Finger fixes a thinko in rtlwifi in which the wrong skb variable was being used in some cases. Rafał Miłecki fixes a thinko in an ID check in the bcma flash code. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

| | * | | | mwifiex: fix incomplete scan in case of IE parsing errorBing Zhao2013-01-30

Each scan command will be sent to firmware and its response is handlded one after another. If any error is detected while parsing IE in command response buffer the remaining data will be ignored and error is returned. We should check if there is any more scan commands pending in the queue before returning error. This ensures that we will call cfg80211_scan_done if this is the last scan command, or send next scan command in scan_pending_q to firmware.
