When we've merged skb's with page frags, and subsequently receive a trailer skb (< MSS) that is not completely non-linear (this can occur on Intel NICs if the packet size falls below the threshold), GRO ends up producing an illegal GSO skb with a frag_list. This is harmless unless the skb is then forwarded through an interface that requires software GSO, whereupon the GSO code will BUG. This patch detects this case in GRO and avoids merging the trailer skb. Reported-by: Mark Wagner <mwagner@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S.

This fixes the following warning: WARNING: drivers/net/phy/built-in.o(.devexit.text+0x70): Section mismatch in reference from the function .mdio_gpio_bus_destroy() to the function .devinit.text:.mdio_gpio_bus_deinit() The function __devexit .mdio_gpio_bus_destroy() references a function __devinit .mdio_gpio_bus_deinit(). This is often seen when error handling in the exit function uses functionality in the init path. The fix is often to remove the __devinit annotation of .mdio_gpio_bus_deinit() so it may be used outside an init section.

PPP does not correctly call pskb_may_pull() on all necessary receive paths before reading the PPP protocol, thus causing PPP to report seemingly random 'unsupported protocols' and eventually trigger BUG_ON(skb->len < skb->data_len) in skb_pull_rcsum() when receiving multilink protocol in non-linear skbs. ppp_receive_nonmp_frame() does not call pskb_may_pull() before reading the protocol number. For the non-mp receive path this is not a problem, as this check is done in ppp_receive_frame(). For the mp receive path, ppp_mp_reconstruct() usually copies the data into a new linear skb. However, in the case where the frame is made up of a single mp fragment, the mp header is pulled and the existing skb used. This skb was then passed to ppp_receive_nonmp_frame() without checking if the encapsulated protocol header could safely be read.

After commmit 4b77b0a2 EEH breaks after the second error, since it calls pci_restore_state() but it returns 0, since pci->state_saved is false.

net: Fix the rollback test in dev_change_name() In dev_change_name() an err variable is used for storing the original call_netdevice_notifiers() errno (negative) and testing for a rollback error later, but the test for non-zero is wrong, because the err might have positive value as well - from dev_alloc_name(). It means the rollback for a netdevice with a number > 0 will never happen. (The err test is reordered btw. to make it more readable.)

In the NAPI poll function(emac_poll), check for netif_running() is unnecassary. In addition to associated runtime overhead, it also results in a continuous softirq loop when the interface is brought down under heavy traffic(tested wit Traffic Generator). Once the interface is disabled, the poll function always returns zero(with the check for netif_running) and napi_complete() would never get called resulting in softirq loop.

Basic Mode is the default mode of operation of a L2CAP entity. In this case the RFC (Retransmission and Flow Control) configuration option should not be used at all. Normally remote L2CAP implementation should just ignore this option, but it can cause various side effects with other Bluetooth stacks that are not capable of handling unknown options.

This patch fixes double pairing issues with Secure Simple Paring support. It was observed that when pairing with SSP enabled, that the confirmation will be asked twice. http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-bluetooth/msg02473.html This also causes bug when initiating SSP connection from Windows Vista. The reason is because bluetoothd does not store link keys since HCIGETAUTHINFO returns 0. Setting default to general bonding fixes these issues.

In r8169 driver MTU is used to calculate receive buffer size. Receive buffer size is used to configure hardware incoming packet filter. For jumbo frames: Receive buffer size = Max frame size = MTU + 14 (ethernet header) + 4 (vlan header) + 4 (ethernet checksum) = MTU + 22 Bug: driver for all MTU up to 1536 use receive buffer size 1536 As you can see from formula, this mean all IP packets > 1536 - 22 (for vlan tagged, 1536 - 18 for not tagged) are dropped by hardware filter. Example: host_good> ifconfig eth0 mtu 1536 host_r8169> ifconfig eth0 mtu 1536 host_good> ping host_r8169 Ok host_good> ping -s 1500 host_r8169 Fail host_good> ifconfig eth0 mtu 7000 host_r8169> ifconfig eth0 mtu 7000 host_good> ping -s 1500 host_r8169 Ok Bonus: got rid of magic number 8 Signed-off-by: Raimonds Cicans <ray@apollo.lv> Signed-off-by: David S.

In 2.6.32-rc the new EMS USB CAN driver was contributed and added the Kconfig entry right behind an entry of the same *vendor*. This teared the SJA1000 based driver selection into pieces. This fix cleans up the 2.6.32-rc Kconfig files for the CAN drivers and moves the SJA1000 and USB Kconfig portions into the belonging directories. As there are many new CAN drivers in the queue getting this cleanup into 2.6.32-rc would massively reduce the problems for the upcoming drivers.

Due commit 4b77b0a2, it is not more possible to pci_restore_state() more than once without calling pci_save_state() in the middle. Actually running a ethtool test on s2io makes the card inactive, and it needs to unload/reload the module to fix.

Recent commits sctp: Get rid of an extra routing lookup when adding a transport and sctp: Set source addresses on the association before adding transports changed when routes are added to the sctp transports. As such, we didn't set the socket source address correctly when adding the first transport. The first transport is always the primary/active one, so when adding it, set the socket source address. This was causing regression failures in SCTP tests. Signed-off-by: Vlad Yasevich <vladislav.yasevich@hp.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

A new (unrealeased to the user) sctp_connectx api c6ba68a2 sctp: support non-blocking version of the new sctp_connectx() API introduced a regression cought by the user regression test suite. In particular, the API requires the user library to re-allocate the buffer and could potentially trigger a SIGFAULT. This change corrects that regression by passing the original address buffer to the kernel unmodified, but still allows for a returned association id.

Recent commit 8da645e1 sctp: Get rid of an extra routing lookup when adding a transport introduced a regression in the connection setup. The behavior was different between IPv4 and IPv6. IPv4 case ended up working because the route lookup routing returned a NULL route, which triggered another route lookup later in the output patch that succeeded. In the IPv6 case, a valid route was returned for first call, but we could not find a valid source address at the time since the source addresses were not set on the association yet. Thus resulted in a hung connection. The solution is to set the source addresses on the association prior to adding peers.

The addition of rcv_nxt allows to discern whether the skb was out of place or tp->copied. Also catch fancy combination of flags if necessary (sadly we might miss the actual causer flags as it might have already returned). Btw, we perhaps would want to forward copied_seq in somewhere or otherwise we might have some nice loop with WARN stuff within but where to do that safely I don't know at this stage until more is known (but it is not made significantly worse by this patch).

When 802.11g was introduced, we had RTS/CTS and CTS-to-Self protection mechanisms. In an HT Beacon, HT stations use the "Operating Mode" field in the HT Information Element to determine whether or not to use protection. The Operating Mode field has 4 possible settings: 0-3: Mode 0: If all stations in the BSS are 20/40 MHz HT capable, or if the BSS is 20/40 MHz capable, or if all stations in the BSS are 20 MHz HT stations in a 20 MHz BSS Mode 1: used if there are non-HT stations or APs using the primary or secondary channels Mode 2: if only HT stations are associated in the BSS and at least one 20 MHz HT station is associated. Mode 3: used if one or more non-HT stations are associated in the BSS. When in operating modes 1 or 3, and the Use_Protection field is 1 in the Beacon's ERP IE, all HT transmissions must be protected using RTS/CTS or CTS-to-Self. By default, CTS-to-self is the preferred protection mechanism for less overhead and higher throughput; but using the full RTS/CTS will better protect the inner exchange from interference, especially in highly-congested environment. For 6000 series WIFI NIC, RTS/CTS protection mechanism is the recommended choice for HT traffic based on the HW design.
