in net/bluetooth/rfcomm/sock.c, rfcomm_sk_state_change() does the following operation: if (parent && sock_flag(sk, SOCK_ZAPPED)) { /* We have to drop DLC lock here, otherwise * rfcomm_sock_destruct() will dead lock. */ rfcomm_dlc_unlock(d); rfcomm_sock_kill(sk); rfcomm_dlc_lock(d); } } which is fine, since rfcomm_sock_kill() will call sk_free() which will call rfcomm_sock_destruct() which takes the rfcomm_dlc_lock()... so far so good. HOWEVER, this assumes that the rfcomm_sk_state_change() function always gets called with the rfcomm_dlc_lock() taken. This is the case for all but one case, and in that case where we don't have the lock, we do a double unlock followed by an attempt to take the lock, which due to underflow isn't going anywhere fast. This patch fixes this by moving the stragling case inside the lock, like the other usages of the same call are doing in this code. This was found with the help of the www.kerneloops.org project, where this deadlock was observed 51 times at this point in time: http://www.kerneloops.org/search.php?search=rfcomm_sock_destructSigned-off-by: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@linux.intel.com> Acked-by: Marcel Holtmann <marcel@holtmann.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

This addresses an alignment issue with compare_ether_addr(). The addresses passed to compare_ether_addr should be two bytes aligned. It may function properly in x86 platform. However may not work properly on IA-64 or ARM processor. This also fixes a typo in mlme.c where the sk_buff struct name is incorect. Though sizeof() works for any incorrect structure pointer name as its just a pointer length that we want, lets just fix it.

This addresses a NULL pointer dereference in sta_info_get(). TID and sta_info are extracted in ADDBA Timer expiry function through the timer handler's argument. The problem is extracging the TID (which was stored in timer_to_tid[] array of type "u8") through "int *" typecast which may also yield unwanted bytes for the MSB of TID that results in incorrect sta_info and ieee80211_local pointers. ieee80211_local pointer is NULL as illustrated below, it crashes in sta_info_get(). The problem started when extracting ieee80211_local pointer out of sta_info iteself and eventually crashed in stat_info_get(). The proper way to fix is to change the data type of TID to u8 instead of u16. However changing all the occurences requires some prototype changes as well. We should fix this in upcoming patches.

This patch allows the rndis_wlan driver to connect to TKIP PSK networks. It uses the ASSOCIATION_INFORMATION RNDIS call to pull back the IEs and sends them back to userspace using wireless events.

rt2x00lib_beacondone() is called from interrupt context, this means we cannot use the mac80211 interface iterator that uses the rtnl lock (since that uses a mutex which can sleep).

Link quality estimation became quite low for all rt2x00 drivers because the number of retries it took to send the frame were counted as failure. This does not correspond to the legacy driver link quality calculation, by not counting it we will send somewhat more optimistic values to mac80211.

The grf5101 RF code needs to invoke grf5101_write_phy_antenna every time the channel is being switch. This should be done passing the channel number to that function. Incorrectly we were passing the same value that is written on the channel RF register. This may cause problems when operating on ch 14. This patch fixes it.

The static function max2820_rf_set_channel is called with conf == NULL within its compilation unit. Originally this defaulted to b/g channel 1, but "cfg80211 API for channels/bitrates, mac80211 and driver conversion" (commit 8318d78a) mistakenly dropped this check. This patch minimally restores the expected behavior. Reported-by: Colin Lai <colin_sh@163.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

The identification of this bug is thanks to Cheng Wei and Tomasz Grobelny. To avoid divide-by-zero, the implementation previously ignored RTTs smaller than 4 microseconds when performing integer division RTT/4. When the RTT reached a value less than 4 microseconds (as observed on loopback), this prevented the Window Counter CCVal value from advancing. As a result, the receiver stopped sending feedback. This in turn caused non-ending expiries of the nofeedback timer at the sender, so that the sending rate was progressively reduced until reaching the minimum of one packet per 64 seconds. The patch fixes this bug by handling integer division more intelligently. Due to consistent use of dccp_sample_rtt(), divide-by-zero-RTT is avoided.

The purpose of nla_parse_nested_compat() is to parse attributes which contain a struct followed by a stream of nested attributes. So far, it called nla_parse_nested() to parse the stream of nested attributes which was wrong, as nla_parse_nested() expects a container attribute as data which holds the attribute stream. It needs to call nla_parse() directly while pointing at the next possible alignment point after the struct in the beginning of the attribute. With this patch, I can no longer reproduce the reported leftover warnings. Signed-off-by: Thomas Graf <tgraf@suug.ch> Acked-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> Signed-off-by: David S.

The following code appears in the function fs_init_instance in the file drivers/net/fs_enet/fs_enet-main.c. if (fep->ops == NULL) { printk(KERN_ERR DRV_MODULE_NAME ": %s No matching ops found (%d).\n", ndev->name, fpi->fs_no); err = -EINVAL; goto err; } This code implies that at the point of err, fep->ops can be NULL, so an extra test is needed before dereferencing this value.
