From RFC341: A temporary address is created only if this calculated Preferred Lifetime is greater than REGEN_ADVANCE time units. In particular, an implementation must not create a temporary address with a zero Preferred Lifetime.

When receiving a prefix information from a routeur, only update the lifetimes of the temporary address associated with that prefix. Otherwise if one deprecated prefix is advertized, all your temporary addresses will become deprecated.

Lockdep warning will be trigged while rfcomm connection closing. The locks taken in rfcomm_dev_add: rfcomm_dev_lock --> d->lock In __rfcomm_dlc_close: d->lock --> rfcomm_dev_lock (in rfcomm_dev_state_change) There's two way to fix it, one is in rfcomm_dev_add we first locking d->lock then the rfcomm_dev_lock The other (in this patch), remove the locking of d->lock for rfcomm_dev_state_change because just locking "d->state = BT_CLOSED;" is enough.

'rfcomm connect' will trigger lockdep warnings which is caused by locking diffrent kinds of bluetooth sockets at the same time. So using sub-classes per AF_BLUETOOTH sub-type for lockdep.

rose_release() doesn't release sockets properly, e.g. it skips sock_orphan(), so OOPSes are triggered in sock_def_write_space(), which was observed especially while ROSE skbs were kfreed from ax25_frames_acked(). There is also sock_hold() and lock_sock() added - similarly to ax25_release(). Thanks to Bernard Pidoux for substantial help in debugging this problem.

ieee80211_sta_work is disabled while network interface is down. Therefore, if you configure wireless parameters before bringing the interface up, these configurations are not yet effective and association fails. A workaround from userspace is calling a command like 'iwconfig wlan0 ap any' after the interface is brought up. To fix this behaviour, trigger execution of ieee80211_sta_work from ieee80211_open when in STA or IBSS mode. Signed-off-by: Jan Niehusmann <jan@gondor.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

In ip6_mc_input(), we need to check whether we have listener(s) for the packet. After commit ae7bf20a, all packets for multicast destinations are delivered to upper layer if IFF_PROMISC or IFF_ALLMULTI is set. In fact, bug was rather ancient; the original (before the commit) intent of the dev->flags check was to skip the ipv6_chk_mcast_addr() call, assuming L2 filters packets appropriately, but it was even not true. Let's explicitly check our multicast list. Signed-off-by: YOSHIFUJI Hideaki <yoshfuji@linux-ipv6.org> Acked-by: David L Stevens <dlstevens@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

If "location" is > "addr_len" bits, the high bits of location would interfere with the READ_CMD sent to the eeprom controller. A patch was submitted to bug: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4420 which simply truncated the "location", read whatever was in "location modulo addr_len", and returned that value. That avoids confusing the eeprom but seems like the wrong solution to me. Correct would be to not read beyond "1 << addr_len" address of the eeprom. I am submitting two changes to implement this: 1) tulip_read_eeprom will return zero (since we can't return -EINVAL) if this is attempted (defensive programming). 2) In tulip_core.c, fix the tulip_read_eeprom caller so they don't iterate past addr_len bits and make sure the entire tp->eeprom[] array is cleared. I konw we don't strictly need both. I would prefer both in the tree since it documents the issue and provides a second "defense" from the bug from creeping back in.

The qdisc_run loop is currently unbounded and runs entirely in a softirq. This is bad as it may create an unbounded softirq run. This patch fixes this by calling need_resched and breaking out if necessary. It also adds a break out if the jiffies value changes since that would indicate we've been transmitting for too long which starves other softirqs.

Commit 9af3912e ("[NET] Move DF check to ip_forward") added a new check to send ICMP fragmentation needed for large packets. Unlike the check in ip_finish_output(), it doesn't check for GSO. Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

LLC currently allows users to inject raw frames, including IP packets encapsulated in SNAP. While Linux doesn't handle IP over SNAP, other systems do. Restrict LLC sockets to root similar to packet sockets. [ Modified Patrick's patch to use CAP_NEW_RAW --DaveM ] Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> Signed-off-by: David S.

Based upon a lockdep report. Since ->poll() can be invoked from netpoll with interrupts disabled, we must not unconditionally enable interrupts in napi_complete(). Instead we must use local_irq_{save,restore}(). Noticed by Peter Zijlstra: <irqs disabled> netpoll_poll() poll_napi() spin_trylock(&napi->poll_lock) poll_one_napi() napi->poll() := sky2_poll() napi_complete() local_irq_disable() local_irq_enable() <--- *BUG* <irq> irq_exit() do_softirq() net_rx_action() spin_lock(&napi->poll_lock) <--- Deadlock! Because we still hold the lock.... Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
