363f151 virtio: use callback on empty in virtio_net virtio_net uses a timer to free old transmitted packets, rather than leaving callbacks enabled all the time. If the host promises to always notify us when the transmit ring is empty, we can free packets at that point and avoid the timer.

14c998f virtio: virtio_net free transmit skbs in a timer virtio_net currently only frees old transmit skbs just before queueing new ones. If the queue is full, it then enables interrupts and waits for notification that more work has been performed. However, a side-effect of this scheme is that there are always xmit skbs left dangling when no new packets are sent, against the Documentation/networking/driver.txt guideline: "... it is not allowed for your TX mitigation scheme to let TX packets "hang out" in the TX ring unreclaimed forever if no new TX packets are sent." Add a timer to ensure that any time we queue new TX skbs, we will shortly free them again. This fixes an easily reproduced hang at shutdown where iptables attempts to unload nf_conntrack and nf_conntrack waits for an skb it is tracking to be freed, but virtio_net never frees it.

23cde76 virtio_net: Fix skb->csum_start computation hdr->csum_start is the offset from the start of the ethernet header to the transport layer checksum field. skb->csum_start is the offset from skb->head. skb_partial_csum_set() assumes that skb->data points to the ethernet header - i.e. it computes skb->csum_start by adding the headroom to hdr->csum_start. Since eth_type_trans() skb_pull()s the ethernet header, skb_partial_csum_set() should be called before eth_type_trans(). (Without this patch, GSO packets from a guest to the world outside the host are corrupted).

5f0c4a3 tg3: Fix 5761 WOL On 5761 non-e devices, two problems prevent the administrator from overriding the WOL settings in the device's NVRAM. The first problem is that GPIO 0 and GPIO 2 have been swapped. This change prevented the administrator from turning on WOL when it is disabled in NVRAM. The fix is to add a new path for the 5761 that swaps the two GPIOs in the code as well. The second problem is that GPIO 1 could not be toggled by the driver because the GPIO is shared with the debug UART GPIO. This will prevent the administrator from being able to turn WOL off if it was enabled in NVRAM. The fix is to always disable the debug UART after a GRC reset.

The problem is that the added flow control check will always fail if flow control is set to autoneg and either RX or TX (or both) flow control is enabled. The driver defaults to setting flow control to autoneg and advertises both RX and TX flow control. The fix is to remove the errant check.

a01f545 libertas: fix sleep confirmation This fixes an issus that made "iwconfig eth1 power on" non-working. When we get a "PS sleep" event, we have to confirm this to the firmware. The confirm happens with a command, but this command is special: the firmware won't send us a response. if_cs_host_to_card() is setting priv->dnld_sent anyway, so this variable stayed at DNLD_DATA_SENT and was never cleared back. Now I put the special knowledge that the CMD_802_11_PS_MODE with CMD_SUBCMD_SLEEP_CONFIRMED doesn't need to need a response by directly clearing the dnld_sent state in lbs_send_confirmsleep().

24b9568 l2tp: Fix possible oops if transmitting or receiving when tunnel goes down Some problems have been experienced in the field which cause an oops in the pppol2tp driver if L2TP tunnels fail while passing data. The pppol2tp driver uses private data that is referenced via the sk->sk_user_data of its UDP and PPPoL2TP sockets. This patch makes sure that the driver uses sock_hold() when it holds a reference to the sk pointer. This affects its sendmsg(), recvmsg(), getname(), [gs]etsockopt() and ioctl() handlers. Tested by ISP where problem was seen. System has been up 10 days with no oops since running this patch. Without the patch, an oops would occur every 1-2 days.

293ad60 tcp: Fix for race due to temporary drop of the socket lock in skb_splice_bits. skb_splice_bits temporary drops the socket lock while iterating over the socket queue in order to break a reverse locking condition which happens with sendfile. This, however, opens a window of opportunity for tcp_collapse() to aggregate skbs and thus potentially free the current skb used in skb_splice_bits and tcp_read_sock.

a660447 tcp: fix skb vs fack_count out-of-sync condition This bug is able to corrupt fackets_out in very rare cases. In order for this to cause corruption: 1) DSACK in the middle of previous SACK block must be generated. 2) In order to take that particular branch, part or all of the DSACKed segment must already be SACKed so that we have that in cache in the first place. 3) The new info must be top enough so that fackets_out will be updated on this iteration. ...then fack_count is updated while skb wasn't, then we walk again that particular segment thus updating fack_count twice for a single skb and finally that value is assigned to fackets_out by tcp_sacktag_one. It is safe to call tcp_sacktag_one just once for a segment (at DSACK), no need to call again for plain SACK. Potential problem of the miscount are limited to premature entry to recovery and to inflated reordering metric (which could even cancel each other out in the most the luckiest scenarios :-)). Both are quite insignificant in worst case too and there exists also code to reset them (fackets_out once sacked_out becomes zero and reordering metric on RTO). This has been reported by a number of people, because it occurred quite rarely, it has been very evasive. Andy Furniss was able to get it to occur couple of times so that a bit more info was collected about the problem using a debug patch, though it still required lot of checking around. Thanks also to others who have tried to help here. This is listed as Bugzilla #10346. The bug was introduced by me in commit 68f8353b48 ([TCP]: Rewrite SACK block processing & sack_recv_cache use), I probably thought back then that there's need to scan that entry twice or didn't dare to make it go through it just once there. Going through twice would have required restoring fack_count after the walk but as noted above, I chose to drop the additional walk step altogether here.

8aca6cb tcp: Fix inconsistency source (CA_Open only when !tcp_left_out(tp)) It is possible that this skip path causes TCP to end up into an invalid state where ca_state was left to CA_Open while some segments already came into sacked_out. If next valid ACK doesn't contain new SACK information TCP fails to enter into tcp_fastretrans_alert(). Thus at least high_seq is set incorrectly to a too high seqno because some new data segments could be sent in between (and also, limited transmit is not being correctly invoked there). Reordering in both directions can easily cause this situation to occur. I guess we would want to use tcp_moderate_cwnd(tp) there as well as it may be possible to use this to trigger oversized burst to network by sending an old ACK with huge amount of SACK info, but I'm a bit unsure about its effects (mainly to FlightSize), so to be on the safe side I just currently fixed it minimally to keep TCP's state consistent (obviously, such nasty ACKs have been possible this far). Though it seems that FlightSize is already underestimated by some amount, so probably on the long term we might want to trigger recovery there too, if appropriate, to make FlightSize calculation to resemble reality at the time when the losses where discovered (but such change scares me too much now and requires some more thinking anyway how to do that as it likely involves some code shuffling). This bug was found by Brian Vowell while running my TCP debug patch to find cause of another TCP issue (fackets_out miscount).

b9f5f52 net: neighbour table ABI problem The neighbor table time of last use information is returned in the incorrect unit. Kernel to user space ABI's need to use USER_HZ (or milliseconds), otherwise the application has to try and discover the real system HZ value which is problematic. Linux has standardized on keeping USER_HZ consistent (100hz) even when kernel is running internally at some other value. This change is small, but it breaks the ABI for older version of iproute2 utilities. But these utilities are already broken since they are looking at the psched_hz values which are completely different. So let's just go ahead and fix both kernel and user space. Older utilities will just print wrong values. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@vyatta.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net> 03 June 2008, 23:03:15 UTC

537d59a bluetooth: rfcomm_dev_state_change deadlock fix There's logic in __rfcomm_dlc_close: rfcomm_dlc_lock(d); d->state = BT_CLOSED; d->state_changed(d, err); rfcomm_dlc_unlock(d); In rfcomm_dev_state_change, it's possible that rfcomm_dev_put try to take the dlc lock, then we will deadlock. Here fixed it by unlock dlc before rfcomm_dev_get in rfcomm_dev_state_change. why not unlock just before rfcomm_dev_put? it's because there's another problem. rfcomm_dev_get/rfcomm_dev_del will take rfcomm_dev_lock, but in rfcomm_dev_add the lock order is : rfcomm_dev_lock --> dlc lock so I unlock dlc before the taken of rfcomm_dev_lock. Actually it's a regression caused by commit 1905f6c736cb618e07eca0c96e60e3c024023428 ("bluetooth : __rfcomm_dlc_close lock fix"), the dlc state_change could be two callbacks : rfcomm_sk_state_change and rfcomm_dev_state_change. I missed the rfcomm_sk_state_change that time.

96d97f2 kbuild: fix $(src) assignmnet with external modules When we introduced support for KBUILD_EXTRA_SYMBOLS we started to include the externam module's kbuild file when doing the final modpost step. As external modules often do: ccflags-y := -I$(src) We had problems because $(src) was unassinged and gcc then used the next parameter for -I resulting in strange build failures. Fix is to assign $(src) and $(obj) when building external modules.

cfab3bd [POWERPC] Add "memory" clobber to MMIO accessors Gcc might re-order MMIO accessors vs. surrounding consistent memory accesses, which is a "bad thing", and could break drivers. This fixes it by adding a "memory" clobber to the MMIO accessors, which should prevent gcc from doing that reordering.

aefdbf1 atl1: fix 4G memory corruption bug When using 4+ GB RAM and SWIOTLB is active, the driver corrupts memory by writing an skb after the relevant DMA page has been unmapped. Although this doesn't happen when *not* using bounce buffers, clearing the pointer to the DMA page after unmapping it fixes the problem. http://marc.info/?t=120861317000005&r=2&w=2 Signed-off-by: Alexey Dobriyan <adobriyan@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Jay Cliburn <jacliburn@bellsouth.net> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@redhat.com> 31 May 2008, 02:07:25 UTC

11a3a15 virtio: fix delayed xmit of packet and freeing of old packets. Because we cache the last failed-to-xmit packet, if there are no packets queued behind that one we may never send it (reproduced here as TCP stalls, "cured" by an outgoing ping).

7eb2e25 virtio: fix virtio_net xmit of freed skb bug If we fail to transmit a packet, we assume the queue is full and put the skb into last_xmit_skb. However, if more space frees up before we xmit it, we loop, and the result can be transmitting the same skb twice. Fix is simple: set skb to NULL if we've used it in some way, and check before sending.
