9915672 af_unix: limit unix_tot_inflight Vegard Nossum found a unix socket OOM was possible, posting an exploit program. My analysis is we can eat all LOWMEM memory before unix_gc() being called from unix_release_sock(). Moreover, the thread blocked in unix_gc() can consume huge amount of time to perform cleanup because of huge working set. One way to handle this is to have a sensible limit on unix_tot_inflight, tested from wait_for_unix_gc() and to force a call to unix_gc() if this limit is hit. This solves the OOM and also reduce overall latencies, and should not slowdown normal workloads.

d47844a ath9k: fix timeout on stopping rx dma It seems that using ath9k_hw_stoppcurecv to stop rx dma is not enough. When it's time to stop DMA, the PCU is still busy, so the rx enable bit never clears.

cf41a51 of/phylib: Use device tree properties to initialize Marvell PHYs. Some aspects of PHY initialization are board dependent, things like indicator LED connections and some clocking modes cannot be determined by probing. The dev_flags element of struct phy_device can be used to control these things if an appropriate value can be passed from the Ethernet driver. We run into problems however if the PHY connections are specified by the device tree. There is no way for the Ethernet driver to know what flags it should pass. If we are using the device tree, the struct phy_device will be populated with the device tree node corresponding to the PHY, and we can extract extra configuration information from there. The next question is what should the format of that information be? It is highly device specific, and the device tree representation should not be tied to any arbitrary kernel defined constants. A straight forward representation is just to specify the exact bits that should be set using the "marvell,reg-init" property: phy5: ethernet-phy@5 { reg = <5>; compatible = "marvell,88e1149r"; marvell,reg-init = /* led[0]:1000, led[1]:100, led[2]:10, led[3]:tx */ <3 0x10 0 0x5777>, /* Reg 3,16 <- 0x5777 */ /* mix %:0, led[0123]:drive low off hiZ */ <3 0x11 0 0x00aa>, /* Reg 3,17 <- 0x00aa */ /* default blink periods. */ <3 0x12 0 0x4105>, /* Reg 3,18 <- 0x4105 */ /* led[4]:rx, led[5]:dplx, led[45]:drive low off hiZ */ <3 0x13 0 0x0a60>; /* Reg 3,19 <- 0x0a60 */ }; phy6: ethernet-phy@6 { reg = <6>; compatible = "marvell,88e1118"; marvell,reg-init = /* Fix rx and tx clock transition timing */ <2 0x15 0xffcf 0>, /* Reg 2,21 Clear bits 4, 5 */ /* Adjust LED drive. */ <3 0x11 0 0x442a>, /* Reg 3,17 <- 0442a */ /* irq, blink-activity, blink-link */ <3 0x10 0 0x0242>; /* Reg 3,16 <- 0x0242 */ }; The Marvell PHYs have a page select register at register 22 (0x16), we can specify any register by its page and register number. These are the first and second word. The third word contains a mask to be ANDed with the existing register value, and the fourth word is ORed with the result to yield the new register value. The new marvell_of_reg_init function leaves the page select register unchanged, so a call to it can be dropped into the .config_init functions without unduly affecting the state of the PHY. If CONFIG_OF_MDIO is not set, there is no of_node, or no "marvell,reg-init" property, the PHY initialization is unchanged.

84cf702 qlge: Fix incorrect usage of module parameters and netdev msg level Driver appears to be mistaking the permission field with default value in the case of debug and qlge_irq_type. Driver is also passing debug as a bitmask into netif_msg_init() which wants a number of bits.

24b7ea9 8139cp: fix checksum broken I am not family with RealTek RTL-8139C+ series 10/100 PCI Ethernet driver. I try to guess the meaning of RxProtoIP and IPFail. RxProtoIP stands for received IPv4 packet that upper protocol is not tcp and udp. !(status & IPFail) is true means that driver correctly to check checksum in IPv4 header. If these are right, driver will set ip_summed with CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY for other upper protocol, e.g. sctp, igmp protocol.

218854a rds: Integer overflow in RDS cmsg handling In rds_cmsg_rdma_args(), the user-provided args->nr_local value is restricted to less than UINT_MAX. This seems to need a tighter upper bound, since the calculation of total iov_size can overflow, resulting in a small sock_kmalloc() allocation. This would probably just result in walking off the heap and crashing when calling rds_rdma_pages() with a high count value.

2de7957 ipv6: addrconf: don't remove address state on ifdown if the address is being kept Currently, addrconf_ifdown does not delete statically configured IPv6 addresses when the interface is brought down. The intent is that when the interface comes back up the address will be usable again. However, this doesn't actually work, because the system stops listening on the corresponding solicited-node multicast address, so the address cannot respond to neighbor solicitations and thus receive traffic. Also, the code notifies the rest of the system that the address is being deleted (e.g, RTM_DELADDR), even though it is not. Fix it so that none of this state is updated if the address is being kept on the interface. Tested: Added a statically configured IPv6 address to an interface, started ping, brought link down, brought link up again. When link came up ping kept on going and "ip -6 maddr" showed that the host was still subscribed to there Signed-off-by: Lorenzo Colitti <lorenzo@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

5e09a10 ixgbe: Look inside vlan when determining offload protocol. Currently the skb->protocol field is used to setup various offloading parameters on transmit for the correct protocol. However, if vlan offloading is disabled or otherwise not used, the protocol field will be ETH_P_8021Q, not the actual protocol. This will cause the offloading to be not performed correctly, even though the hardware is capable of looking inside vlan tags. Instead, look inside the header if necessary to determine the correct protocol type. To some extent this fixes a regression from 2.6.36 because it was previously not possible to disable vlan offloading and this error case was not exposed.

d0d9d8e bnx2x: Look inside vlan when determining checksum proto. Currently the skb->protocol field is used to setup checksum offloading on transmit for the correct protocol. However, if vlan offloading is disabled or otherwise not used, the protocol field will be ETH_P_8021Q, not the actual protocol. This will cause the checksum to be not computed correctly, even though the hardware is capable of looking inside vlan tags. Instead, look inside the header if necessary to determine the correct protocol type. To some extent this fixes a regression from 2.6.36 because it was previously not possible to disable vlan offloading and this error case was not exposed.

167c25e virtio-net: init link state correctly For device that supports VIRTIO_NET_F_STATUS, there's no need to assume the link is up and we need to call nerif_carrier_off() before querying device status, otherwise we may get wrong operstate after diver was loaded because the link watch event was not fired as expected. For device that does not support VIRITO_NET_F_STATUS, we could not get its status through virtnet_update_status() and what we can only do is always assuming the link is up. Acked-by: Michael S.

I belive adjust_link hangs somewhere, holding the PHY lock, because ucc_geth_stop disabled the controller HW. Fix is to stop the PHY before disabling the controller.

2040bd5 ucc_geth: Do not bring the whole IF down when TX failure. ucc_geth_close lacks a cancel_work_sync(&ugeth->timeout_work) to stop any outstanding processing of TX fail. However, one can not call cancel_work_sync without fixing the timeout function otherwise it will deadlock. This patch brings ucc_geth in line with gianfar: Don't bring the interface down and up, just reinit controller HW and PHY.

369cf77 rtnetlink: Fix message size calculation for link messages nlmsg_total_size() calculates the length of a netlink message including header and alignment. nla_total_size() calculates the space an individual attribute consumes which was meant to be used in this context. Also, ensure to account for the attribute header for the IFLA_INFO_XSTATS attribute as implementations of get_xstats_size() seem to assume that we do so. The addition of two message headers minus the missing attribute header resulted in a calculated message size that was larger than required. Therefore we never risked running out of skb tailroom.
