a883bf5 pkt_sched: act_police: Fix a rate estimator test. A commit c1b56878fb68e9c14070939ea4537ad4db79ffae "tc: policing requires a rate estimator" introduced a test which invalidates previously working configs, based on examples from iproute2: doc/actions/actions-general. This is too rigorous: a rate estimator is needed only when police's "avrate" option is used.

9f8ac0b tg3: Fix 5906 link problems Commit 6833c043f9fc03696fde623914c4a0277df2a0bc introduced the phy auto-powerdown capability. While the APD feature only works for 5761 and 5784 asic revisions, the (harmless portion of the) code was applied to all 5705 and newer devices. However, the 5906 phy departs from the usual design. This commit was interfering with the 5906's ability to negotiate link against some switches. This patch corrects the problem.

fe7ca2e IPv6: add "disable" module parameter support to ipv6.ko Add "disable" module parameter support to ipv6.ko by specifying "disable=1" on module load. We just do the minimum of initializing inetsw6[] so calls from other modules to inet6_register_protosw() won't OOPs, then bail out.

4843b93 netlink: invert error code in netlink_set_err() The callers of netlink_set_err() currently pass a negative value as parameter for the error code. However, sk->sk_err wants a positive error value. Without this patch, skb_recv_datagram() called by netlink_recvmsg() may return a positive value to report an error. Another choice to fix this is to change callers to pass a positive error value, but this seems a bit inconsistent and error prone to me. Indeed, the callers of netlink_set_err() assumed that the (usual) negative value for error codes was fine before this patch :). This patch also includes some documentation in docbook format for netlink_set_err() to avoid this sort of confusion. Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

17edde5 netns: Remove net_alive It turns out that net_alive is unnecessary, and the original problem that led to it being added was simply that the icmp code thought it was a network device and wound up being unable to handle packets while there were still packets in the network namespace. Now that icmp and tcp have been fixed to properly register themselves this problem is no longer present and we have a stronger guarantee that packets will not arrive in a network namespace then that provided by net_alive in netif_receive_skb. So remove net_alive allowing packet reception run a little faster. Additionally document the strong reason why network namespace cleanup is safe so that if something happens again someone else will have a chance of figuring it out. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

6eb0777 netns: Fix icmp shutdown. Recently I had a kernel panic in icmp_send during a network namespace cleanup. There were packets in the arp queue that failed to be sent and we attempted to generate an ICMP host unreachable message, but failed because icmp_sk_exit had already been called. The network devices are removed from a network namespace and their arp queues are flushed before we do attempt to shutdown subsystems so this error should have been impossible. It turns out icmp_init is using register_pernet_device instead of register_pernet_subsys. Which resulted in icmp being shut down while we still had the possibility of packets in flight, making a nasty NULL pointer deference in interrupt context possible. Changing this to register_pernet_subsys fixes the problem in my testing. Signed-off-by: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@aristanetworks.com> Acked-by: Denis V.

176c39a netns: fix addrconf_ifdown kernel panic When a network namespace is destroyed the network interfaces are all unregistered, making addrconf_ifdown called by the netdevice notifier. In the other hand, the addrconf exit method does a loop on the network devices and does addrconf_ifdown on each of them. But the ordering of the netns subsystem is not right because it uses the register_pernet_device instead of register_pernet_subsys. If we handle the loopback as any network device, we can safely use register_pernet_subsys. But if we use register_pernet_subsys, the addrconf exit method will do exactly what was already done with the unregistering of the network devices. So in definitive, this code is pointless. I removed the netns addrconf exit method and moved the code to the addrconf cleanup function. Signed-off-by: Daniel Lezcano <dlezcano@fr.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

3df2678 sctp: fix kernel panic with ERROR chunk containing too many error causes If ERROR chunk is received with too many error causes in ESTABLISHED state, the kernel get panic.

cac477e cdc_ether: add usb id for Ericsson F3507g The Ericsson F3507g wireless broadband module provides a CDC Ethernet compliant interface, but identifies it as a "Mobile Direct Line" CDC subclass, thereby preventing the CDC Ethernet class driver from picking it up. This patch adds the device id to cdc_ether.c as a workaround. Ericsson has provided a "class" driver for this device: http://kerneltrap.org/mailarchive/linux-net/2008/10/28/3832094 But closer inspection of that driver reveals that it adds little more than duplication of code from cdc_ether.c.

6709fe9 r8169: read MAC address from EEPROM on init (2nd attempt) This is 2nd attempt to implement the initialization/reading of MAC address from EEPROM. The first used PCI's VPD and there were some problems, some devices are not able to read EEPROM content by VPD. The 2nd one uses direct access to EEPROM through bit-banging interface and my testing results seem to be much better. I tested 5 systems each with different Realtek NICs and I didn't find any problem. AFAIK Francois's NICs also works fine. Original description: This fixes the problem when MAC address is set by ifconfig or by ip link commands and this address is stored in the device after reboot. The power-off is needed to get right MAC address. This is problem when Xen daemon is running because it renames the device name from ethX to pethX and sets its MAC address to FE:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF. After reboot the device is still using FE:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF. Signed-off-by: Ivan Vecera <ivecera@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net> 02 March 2009, 04:34:48 UTC

4ead443 netpoll: Add drop checks to all entry points The netpoll entry checks are required to ensure that we don't receive normal packets when invoked via netpoll. Unfortunately it only ever worked for the netif_receive_skb/netif_rx entry points. The VLAN (and subsequently GRO) entry point didn't have the check and therefore can trigger all sorts of weird problems. This patch adds the netpoll check to all entry points. I'm still uneasy with receiving at all under netpoll (which apparently is only used by the out-of-tree kdump code). The reason is it is perfectly legal to receive all data including headers into highmem if netpoll is off, but if you try to do that with netpoll on and someone gets a printk in an IRQ handler you're going to get a nice BUG_ON.

a2fd814 USB: musb: fix urb_dequeue() method The urb_dequeue() method forgets to unlink 'struct musb_qh' from the control or bulk schedules when the URB being cancelled is the only one queued to its endpoint. That will cause musb_advance_schedule() to block once it reaches 'struct musb_qh' with now empty URB list, so URBs queued for other endpoints after the one being dequeued will not be served. Fix by unlinking the QH from the list except when it's already being handled (typically by musb_giveback). Since a QH with an empty URB list is now supposed to be freed, do that. And remove a now-useless check from musb_advance_schedule().

Sanity tested on DM6664 EVM for host and peripheral modes; that system won't boot with CONFIG_PM enabled, so OTG can't yet be tested. Also verified on OMAP3.

67f5a4b USB: usb_get_string should check the descriptor type This patch (as1218) fixes a problem with a radio-control joystick used in the "walkera 4#3" helicopter. This device responds to the initial Get-String-Descriptor request for string 0 (which is really the list of supported languages) by sending its config descriptor! The usb_get_string() routine needs to check whether it got the right type of descriptor. Oddly enough, this sort of check is already present in usb_get_descriptor(). The patch changes the error code from -EPROTO to -ENODATA, because -EPROTO shows up in so many other contexts to indicate a hardware failure rather than a firmware error.

9aa09d2 USB: EHCI: slow down ITD reuse Currently ITDs are immediately recycled whenever their URB completes. However, EHCI hardware can sometimes remember some ITD state. This means that when the ITD is reused before end-of-frame it may sometimes cause the hardware to reference bogus state. This patch defers reusing such ITDs by moving them into a new ehci member cached_itd_list. ITDs resting in cached_itd_list are moved back into their stream's free_list once scan_periodic() detects that the active frame has elapsed. This makes the snd_usb_us122l driver (in kernel since .28) work right when it's hooked up through EHCI.

e92aa63 b44: Disable device on shutdown Disable the SSB core on device shutdown. This has two advantages: 1) A clean device shutdown is always desired here, because we disable the device's global crystal in the next statement. 2) This fixes a bug where the device will come up with the enable-bit set on the next initialization (without a reboot inbetween). This causes breakage on the second initialization due to code that checks this bit (ssb_device_is_enabled() checks).

f8af11a b44: Unconditionally enable interrupt routing on reset Unconditionally setup the IRQ routing on chip reset. It's safe to call ssb_pcicore_dev_irqvecs_enable() unconditionally, because it has internal checks for redundant calls. This fixes problems where hardware will not come up properly due to quirks in the enable-bit hardware.

382c554 V4L/DVB (10694): [PATCH] software IRQ watchdog for Flexcop B2C2 DVB PCI cards With (some) Technisat cards you cannot run multiple DVB applications in parallel and switch the channel at the same time. There seems to be a problem on the interfaces or even inside the flexcop-device that can't handle interruption on the streaming interface. This patch adds a watchdog to check whether data is supposed to come in (streaming PIDs are requested) and if no data is seen within 400ms (default) it resets the streaming/pid-filtering hardware. This patch is urgently needed to support the rev 2.8 of the hardware and solves problem occassionally seen on older hardware.

7662b00 V4L/DVB (10659): em28xx: register device to soundcard for sysfs As explained in "Writing an ALSA driver" (T. Iwai), audio drivers should set the struct device for the card before registering the card instance. This will add the correct /sys/class/sound/cardN/device symlink, so HAL can see the device and ConsoleKit sets its ACL permissions for the logged-in user. For em28xx audio capture cards found e.g. in Hauppauge WinTV-HVR-900 (R2), this patch fixes errors like: ALSA lib pcm_hw.c:1429:(_snd_pcm_hw_open) Invalid value for card Error opening audio: Permission denied when running mplayer as a normal user.

1ac00cc powerpc/44x: Fix address decoding setup of PCI 2.x cells The PCI 2.x cells used on some 44x SoCs only let us configure the decode for the low 32-bit of the incoming PLB addresses. The top 4 bits (this is a 36-bit bus) are hard wired to different values depending on the specific SoC in use. Our code used to work "by accident" until I added support for the ISA memory holes and while at it added more validity checking of the addresses. This patch should bring it back to working condition. It still relies on the device-tree being correct but that's somewhat a pre-requisite for anything to work anyway.
