* tcp: Stop non-TSO packets morphing into TSOHerbert Xu2009-06-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | If a socket starts out on a non-TSO route, and then switches to a TSO route, then the tail on the tx queue can morph into a TSO packet, causing mischief because the rest of the stack does not expect a partially linear TSO packet. This patch fixes this by ensuring that skb->ip_summed is set to CHECKSUM_PARTIAL before declaring a packet as TSO.

| * | netfilter: tcp conntrack: fix unacknowledged data detection with NATPatrick McHardy2009-06-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When NAT helpers change the TCP packet size, the highest seen sequence number needs to be corrected. This is currently only done upwards, when the packet size is reduced the sequence number is unchanged. This causes TCP conntrack to falsely detect unacknowledged data and decrease the timeout. Fix by updating the highest seen sequence number in both directions after packet mangling. Tested-by: Krzysztof Piotr Oledzki <ole@ans.pl> Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net>
| * | nf_conntrack: Use rcu_barrier()Jesper Dangaard Brouer2009-06-25
| |/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | RCU barriers, rcu_barrier(), is inserted two places. In nf_conntrack_expect.c nf_conntrack_expect_fini() before the kmem_cache_destroy(). Firstly to make sure the callback to the nf_ct_expect_free_rcu() code is still around. Secondly because I'm unsure about the consequence of having in flight nf_ct_expect_free_rcu/kmem_cache_free() calls while doing a kmem_cache_destroy() slab destroy. And in nf_conntrack_extend.c nf_ct_extend_unregister(), inorder to wait for completion of callbacks to __nf_ct_ext_free_rcu(), which is invoked by __nf_ct_ext_add(). It might be more efficient to call rcu_barrier() in nf_conntrack_core.c nf_conntrack_cleanup_net(), but thats make it more difficult to read the code (as the callback code in located in nf_conntrack_extend.c).

* | be2net: Fix to avoid a crash seen on PPC with LRO and Jumbo frames.Ajit Khaparde2009-06-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | While testing the driver on PPC, we ran into a crash with LRO, Jumbo frames. With CONFIG_PPC_64K_PAGES configured (a default in PPC), MAX_SKB_FRAGS drops to 3 and we were crossing the array limits on skb_shinfo(skb)->frags[]. Now we coalesce the frags from the same physical page into one slot in skb_shinfo(skb)->frags[] and go to the next index when the frag is from different physical page. This patch is against the net-2.6 tree. Signed-off-by: Ajit Khaparde <ajitk@serverengines.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
* | gro: Flush GRO packets in napi_disable_pending pathHerbert Xu2009-06-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When NAPI is disabled while we're in net_rx_action, we end up calling __napi_complete without flushing GRO packets. This is a bug as it would cause the GRO packets to linger, of course it also literally BUGs to catch error like this :) This patch changes it to napi_complete, with the obligatory IRQ reenabling. This should be safe because we've only just disabled IRQs and it does not materially affect the test conditions in between.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There are cases when charging monitor and the event handler try to change the charger state simultaneously. For instance, a charger is connected to the system, there's the detection event and the event handler tries to enable charging. It is possible that the periodic charging monitor runs at the same time and it still thinks there's no external charger. So it tries to disable the charging. As the result, even if the conditions necessary to charge the battery hold, there will be no actual charging. The patch changes the event handler so that instead of enabling/ disabling the charger immediately it would rather make the monitor run. The monitor code then decides what should be the charger state.

The patch was made on two wrong assumptions: 1) access_ok(VERIFY_WRITE,...) would actually check write access. On x86 it does _NOT_. It's a pure address range check. 2) a RW mapped region can not go away under us. That's wrong as well. Nobody can prevent another thread to call mprotect(PROT_READ) on that region where the futex resides. If that call hits between the get_user_pages_fast() verification and the actual write access in the atomic region we are toast again. The solution is to not rely on access_ok and get_user() for any write access related fault on private and shared futexes. Instead we need to fault it in with verification of write access. There is no generic non destructive write mechanism which would fault the user page in trough a #PF, but as we already know that we will fault we can as well call get_user_pages() directly and avoid the #PF overhead. If get_user_pages() returns -EFAULT we know that we can not fix it anymore and need to bail out to user space. Remove a bunch of confusing comments on this issue as well.

|/ / | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Traditionally, we never failed small orders (even regardless of any __GFP_NOFAIL flags), and slab will allocate order-1 allocations even for small allocations that could fit in a single page (in order to avoid excessive fragmentation). Maybe we should remove this warning entirely, but before making that judgement, at least limit it to bigger allocations.

The result is that memory is freed back to the kernel while its packet is still in the transmit buffer. If the memory is overwritten before it is transmitted, the hardware will put a valid checksum on it and send it out (just like it does with good packets). If by chance the TCP flags are clobbered but not the addresses or ports, the result can be a broken TCP stream. The fix is to track the number of freed packets in a single location (a Fetch-and-Add Unit register). That way it can never get out of sync with itself. We try to free up to MAX_SKB_TO_FREE (currently 10) buffers at a time. If fewer are available we adjust the free count with the difference. The action of claiming buffers to free is atomic so two threads cannot claim the same buffers. Signed-off-by: David Daney <ddaney@caviumnetworks.com> Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Convert the driver to use net_device_ops as it is now mandatory. Also compensate for the removal of struct sk_buff's dst field. The changes are mostly mechanical, the content of ethernet-common.c was moved to ethernet.c and ethernet-common.{c,h} are removed.
