In case a reset is performed, rtl8169_rx_interrupt() is called from process context instead of softirq context. Special care must be taken to call appropriate network core services (netif_rx() instead of netif_receive_skb()). VLAN handling also corrected.

Commit 6f461f6c ("e1000e: enable/disable ASPM L0s and L1 and ERT according to hardware errata") oopses on one of my ppc64 boxes with a NULL pointer (0x4a): Unable to handle kernel paging request for data at address 0x0000004a Faulting instruction address: 0xc0000000004d2f1c cpu 0xe: Vector: 300 (Data Access) at [c000000bec1833a0] pc: c0000000004d2f1c: .e1000e_disable_aspm+0xe0/0x150 lr: c0000000004d2f0c: .e1000e_disable_aspm+0xd0/0x150 dar: 4a [c000000bec1836d0] c00000000069b9d8 .e1000_probe+0x84/0xe8c [c000000bec1837b0] c000000000386d90 .local_pci_probe+0x4c/0x68 [c000000bec183840] c0000000003872ac .pci_device_probe+0xfc/0x148 [c000000bec183900] c000000000409e8c .driver_probe_device+0xe4/0x1d0 [c000000bec1839a0] c00000000040a024 .__driver_attach+0xac/0xf4 [c000000bec183a40] c000000000409124 .bus_for_each_dev+0x9c/0x10c [c000000bec183b00] c000000000409c1c .driver_attach+0x40/0x60 [c000000bec183b90] c0000000004085dc .bus_add_driver+0x150/0x328 [c000000bec183c40] c00000000040a58c .driver_register+0x100/0x1c4 [c000000bec183cf0] c00000000038764c .__pci_register_driver+0x78/0x128 Seems like pdev->bus->self == NULL.

The problem is in sctp_process_unk_param: if (NULL == *errp) *errp = sctp_make_op_error_space(asoc, chunk, ntohs(chunk->chunk_hdr->length)); if (*errp) { sctp_init_cause(*errp, SCTP_ERROR_UNKNOWN_PARAM, WORD_ROUND(ntohs(param.p->length))); sctp_addto_chunk(*errp, WORD_ROUND(ntohs(param.p->length)), param.v); When we allocate an error chunk, we assume that the worst case scenario requires that we have chunk_hdr->length data allocated, which would be correct nominally, given that we call sctp_addto_chunk for the violating parameter. Unfortunately, we also, in sctp_init_cause insert a sctp_errhdr_t structure into the error chunk, so the worst case situation in which all parameters are in violation requires chunk_hdr->length+(sizeof(sctp_errhdr_t)*param_count) bytes of data. The result of this error is that a deliberately malformed packet sent to a listening host can cause a remote DOS, described in CVE-2010-1173: http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=2010-1173 I've tested the below fix and confirmed that it fixes the issue. We move to a strategy whereby we allocate a fixed size error chunk and ignore errors we don't have space to report.

When calculating the INIT/INIT-ACK chunk length, we should not only account the length of parameters, but also the parameters zero padding length, such as AUTH HMACS parameter and CHUNKS parameter. Without the parameters zero padding length we may get following oops. skb_over_panic: text:ce2068d2 len:130 put:6 head:cac3fe00 data:cac3fe00 tail:0xcac3fe82 end:0xcac3fe80 dev:<NULL> ------------[ cut here ]------------ kernel BUG at net/core/skbuff.c:127! invalid opcode: 0000 [#2] SMP last sysfs file: /sys/module/aes_generic/initstate Modules linked in: authenc ......

Re-submitted based on comments from netdev community. Summary of the changes: 1. Improved error handling. 2. Added the missing timeout arguments to usb_control_msg(). The following is a new Linux driver which exposes certain models of Sierra Wireless modems to the operating system as Network Interface Cards (NICs). This driver requires a version of the sierra.c driver which supports blacklisting to work properly. The blacklist in sierra.c rejects the interfaces claimed by sierra_net.c. Likewise, the sierra_net.c driver only accepts (i.e. whitelists) the interface(s) used for USB-to-WWAN traffic. The version of sierra.c which supports blacklisting is available from the sierra wireless knowledge base page for older kernels. It is also available in Linux kernel starting from version 2.6.31. This driver works with all Sierra Wireless devices configured with PID=68A3 like USB305, USB306 provided the corresponding firmware version is I2.0 (for USB305) or M3.0 (for USB306) and later. This driver will not work with earlier firmware versions than the ones shown above. In this case the driver will issue an error message indicating incompatibility and will not serve the device's USB-to-WWAN interface. Sierra_net.c sits atop a pre-existing Linux driver called usbnet.c. A series of hook functions are provided in sierra_net.c which are called by usbnet.c in response to a particular condition such as receipt or transmission of a data packet. As such, usbnet.c does most of the work of making a modem appear to the system as a network device and for properly exchanging traffic between the USB subsystem and the Network card interface. Sierra_net.c is concerned with managing the data exchanged between the USB-to-WWAN interface and the upper layers of the operating system.

Autosuspend works until you bring the wwan interface up, then the device does not enter autosuspend anymore. The following patch fixes the problem by setting the .manage_power field in the mbm_info struct to the same as in the cdc_info struct (cdc_manager_power).

The bonding driver calls ndo_vlan_rx_register() while holding bond->lock. The bnx2 driver calls bnx2_netif_stop() to stop the rx handling while changing the vlgrp. The call also stops the cnic driver which sleeps while the bond->lock is held and cause the warning. This code path only needs to stop the NAPI rx handling while we are changing the vlgrp. Since no reset is going to occur, there is no need to stop cnic in this case. By adding a parameter to bnx2_netif_stop() to skip stopping cnic, we can avoid the warning.

It has been reported that under certain heavy traffic conditions in MSI-X mode, the driver can lose an MSI-X vector causing all packets in the associated rx/tx ring pair to be dropped. The problem is caused by the chip dropping the write to unmask the MSI-X vector by the kernel (when migrating the IRQ for example). This can be prevented by increasing the GRC timeout value for these register read and write operations. Thanks to Dell for helping us debug this problem.

Prompted by a previous patch submitted by Matthew Garret <mjg@redhat.com>, further digging into errata documentation reveals the current enabling or disabling of ASPM L0s and L1 states for certain parts supported by this driver are incorrect. 82571 and 82572 should always disable L1. For standard frames, 82573/82574/82583 can enable L1 but L0s must be disabled, and for jumbo frames 82573/82574 must disable L1. This allows for some parts to enable L1 in certain configurations leading to better power savings. Also according to the same errata, Early Receive (ERT) should be disabled on 82573 when using jumbo frames.

Trying to run izlisten (from lowpan-tools tests) on a device that does not exists I got the oops below. The problem is that we are using get_dev_by_name without checking if we really get a device back. We don't in this case and writing to dev->type generates this oops.

tg3: Fix INTx fallback when MSI fails MSI setup changes the value of irq_vec in struct tg3 *tp. This attribute must be taken into account and restored before we try to do a new request_irq for INTx fallback. In powerpc, the original code was leading to an EINVAL return within request_irq, because the driver was trying to use the disabled MSI virtual irq number instead of tp->pdev->irq.

We should not call ipv6_addr_any(inet6_rcv_saddr(sk2)) but ipv6_addr_any(inet6_rcv_saddr(sk)) because sk2 can be IPV4, while sk is IPV6. Reported-by: Michael S.
