Currently netdev_features_change is called before fcoe tx queues setup is done, so this patch moves calling of netdev_features_change after tx queues setup is done in ixgbe_init_interrupt_scheme, so that real_num_tx_queues is updated correctly on each fcoe enable or disable. This allows additional fcoe queues updated correctly in vlan driver for their correct queue selection.

Xfrm_dst keeps a reference to ipv4 rtable entries on each cached bundle. The only way to renew xfrm_dst when the underlying route has changed, is to implement dst_check for this. This is what ipv6 side does too. The problems started after 87c1e12b ("ipsec: Fix bogus bundle flowi") which fixed a bug causing xfrm_dst to not get reused, until that all lookups always generated new xfrm_dst with new route reference and path mtu worked. But after the fix, the old routes started to get reused even after they were expired causing pmtu to break (well it would occationally work if the rtable gc had run recently and marked the route obsolete causing dst_check to get called).

Fix 82599 link issues during driver load and unload test using multi-speed 10G & 1G fiber modules. When connected back to back sometime 82599 multispeed fiber modules would link at 1G speed instead of 10G highest speed, due to a race condition in autotry process involving Tx laser flapping. Move autotry autoneg-37 tx laser flapping process from multispeed module init setup to driver unload. This will alert the link partner to restart its autotry process when it tries to establish the link with the link partner Signed-off-by: Mallikarjuna R Chilakala <mallikarjuna.chilakala@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Kirsher <jeffrey.t.kirsher@intel.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Without CONFIG_BRIDGE_IGMP_SNOOPING, BR_INPUT_SKB_CB(skb)->mrouters_only is not appropriately initialized, so we can see garbage. A clear option to fix this is to set it even without that config, but we cannot optimize out the branch. Let's introduce a macro that returns value of mrouters_only and let it return 0 without CONFIG_BRIDGE_IGMP_SNOOPING. Signed-off-by: YOSHIFUJI Hideaki <yoshfuji@linux-ipv6.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

Its a straightforward inversion, tipc_ref_acquire takes two locks in this order: ref_table_lock entry->lock while tipc_deleteport takes them in this order: entry->lock (via tipc_port_lock()) ref_table_lock (via tipc_ref_discard()) when the same entry is referenced, we get the above warning. The fix is equally straightforward. Theres no real relation between the entry->lock and the ref_table_lock (they just are needed at the same time), so move the entry->lock aquisition in tipc_ref_acquire down, after we unlock ref_table_lock (this is safe since the ref_table_lock guards changes to the reference table, and we've already claimed a slot there. I've tested the below fix and confirmed that it clears up the lockdep issue Signed-off-by: Neil Horman <nhorman@tuxdriver.com> CC: Allan Stephens <allan.stephens@windriver.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

This patch fixes UDP socket refcnt bugs in the pppol2tp driver. A bug can cause a kernel stack trace when a tunnel socket is closed. A way to reproduce the issue is to prepare the UDP socket for L2TP (by opening a tunnel pppol2tp socket) and then close it before any L2TP sessions are added to it. The sequence is Create UDP socket Create tunnel pppol2tp socket to prepare UDP socket for L2TP pppol2tp_connect: session_id=0, peer_session_id=0 L2TP SCCRP control frame received (tunnel_id==0) pppol2tp_recv_core: sock_hold() pppol2tp_recv_core: sock_put L2TP ZLB control frame received (tunnel_id=nnn) pppol2tp_recv_core: sock_hold() pppol2tp_recv_core: sock_put Close tunnel management socket pppol2tp_release: session_id=0, peer_session_id=0 Close UDP socket udp_lib_close: BUG The addition of sock_hold() in pppol2tp_connect() solves the problem. For data frames, two sock_put() calls were added to plug a refcnt leak per received data frame. The ref that is grabbed at the top of pppol2tp_recv_core() must always be released, but this wasn't done for accepted data frames or data frames discarded because of bad UDP checksums. This leak meant that any UDP socket that had passed L2TP data traffic (i.e. L2TP data frames, not just L2TP control frames) using pppol2tp would not be released by the kernel.

When I initially stumbled upon sequence number problems with PAE frames in ath9k, I submitted a patch to remove all special cases for PAE frames and let them go through the normal transmit path. Out of concern about crypto incompatibility issues, this change was merged instead: commit 6c8afef5 Author: Sujith <Sujith.Manoharan@atheros.com> Date: Tue Feb 9 10:07:00 2010 +0530 ath9k: Fix sequence numbers for PAE frames After a lot of testing, I'm able to reliably trigger a driver crash on rekeying with current versions with this change in place. It seems that the driver does not support sending out regular MPDUs with the same TID while an A-MPDU session is active. This leads to duplicate entries in the TID Tx buffer, which hits the following BUG_ON in ath_tx_addto_baw(): index = ATH_BA_INDEX(tid->seq_start, bf->bf_seqno); cindex = (tid->baw_head + index) & (ATH_TID_MAX_BUFS - 1); BUG_ON(tid->tx_buf[cindex] != NULL); I believe until we actually have a reproducible case of an incompatibility with another AP using no PAE special cases, we should simply get rid of this mess. This patch completely fixes my crash issues in STA mode and makes it stay connected without throughput drops or connectivity issues even when the AP is configured to a very short group rekey interval.

In case debugfs does not init for some reason (or is disabled on older kernels) driver does not allocate stats.fw_stats structure, but tries to clear it later and trips on a NULL pointer: Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000000 PC is at __memzero+0x24/0x80 Backtrace: [<bf0ddb88>] (wl1251_debugfs_reset+0x0/0x30 [wl1251]) [<bf0d6a2c>] (wl1251_op_stop+0x0/0x12c [wl1251]) [<bf0bc228>] (ieee80211_stop_device+0x0/0x74 [mac80211]) [<bf0b0d10>] (ieee80211_stop+0x0/0x4ac [mac80211]) [<c02deeac>] (dev_close+0x0/0xb4) [<c02deac0>] (dev_change_flags+0x0/0x184) [<c031f478>] (devinet_ioctl+0x0/0x704) [<c0320720>] (inet_ioctl+0x0/0x100) Add a NULL pointer check to fix this.

From: Michael Braun <michael-dev@fami-braun.de> bridge: Fix br_forward crash in promiscuous mode It's a linux-next kernel from 2010-03-12 on an x86 system and it OOPs in the bridge module in br_pass_frame_up (called by br_handle_frame_finish) because brdev cannot be dereferenced (its set to a non-null value). Adding some BUG_ON statements revealed that BR_INPUT_SKB_CB(skb)->brdev == br-dev (as set in br_handle_frame_finish first) only holds until br_forward is called. The next call to br_pass_frame_up then fails. Digging deeper it seems that br_forward either frees the skb or passes it to NF_HOOK which will in turn take care of freeing the skb. The same is holds for br_pass_frame_ip. So it seems as if two independent skb allocations are required. As far as I can see, commit b33084be ("bridge: Avoid unnecessary clone on forward path") removed skb duplication and so likely causes this crash. This crash does not happen on 2.6.33. I've therefore modified br_forward the same way br_flood has been modified so that the skb is not freed if skb0 is going to be used and I can confirm that the attached patch resolves the issue for me.

Since all callers of br_mdb_ip_get need to check whether the hash table is NULL, this patch moves the check into the function. This fixes the two callers (query/leave handler) that didn't check it.

dccp: fix panic caused by failed initialisation This fixes a kernel panic reported thanks to Andre Noll: if DCCP is compiled into the kernel and any out of the initialisation steps in net/dccp/proto.c:dccp_init() fail, a subsequent attempt to create a SOCK_DCCP socket will panic, since inet{,6}_create() are not prevented from creating DCCP sockets. This patch fixes the problem by propagating a failure in dccp_init() to dccp_v{4,6}_init_net(), and from there to dccp_v{4,6}_init(), so that the DCCP protocol is not made available if its initialisation fails.

Calling tty_buffer_request_room() before tty_insert_flip_string() is unnecessary, costs CPU and for big buffers can mess up the multi-page allocation avoidance.
