genetlink has a circular locking dependency when dumping the registered families: - dump start: genl_rcv() : take genl_mutex genl_rcv_msg() : call netlink_dump_start() while holding genl_mutex netlink_dump_start(), netlink_dump() : take nlk->cb_mutex ctrl_dumpfamily() : try to detect this case and not take genl_mutex a second time - dump continuance: netlink_rcv() : call netlink_dump netlink_dump : take nlk->cb_mutex ctrl_dumpfamily() : take genl_mutex Register genl_lock as callback mutex with netlink to fix this. This slightly widens an already existing module unload race, the genl ops used during the dump might go away when the module is unloaded. Thomas Graf is working on a seperate fix for this.

This reverts commit 608961a5. The problem is that the mac80211 stack not only needs to be able to muck with the link-level headers, it also might need to mangle all of the packet data if doing sw wireless encryption. This fixes kernel bugzilla #10903. Thanks to Didier Raboud (for the bugzilla report), Andrew Prince (for bisecting), Johannes Berg (for bringing this bisection analysis to my attention), and Ilpo (for trying to analyze this purely from the TCP side). In 2.6.27 we can take another stab at this, by using something like skb_cow_data() when the TX path of mac80211 ends up with a non-NULL tx->key. The ESP protocol code in the IPSEC stack can be used as a model for implementation. Signed-off-by:

The unix_dgram_sendmsg routine implements a (somewhat crude) form of receiver-imposed flow control by comparing the length of the receive queue of the 'peer socket' with the max_ack_backlog value stored in the corresponding sock structure, either blocking the thread which caused the send-routine to be called or returning EAGAIN. This routine is used by both SOCK_DGRAM and SOCK_SEQPACKET sockets. The poll-implementation for these socket types is datagram_poll from core/datagram.c. A socket is deemed to be writeable by this routine when the memory presently consumed by datagrams owned by it is less than the configured socket send buffer size. This is always wrong for connected PF_UNIX non-stream sockets when the abovementioned receive queue is currently considered to be full. 'poll' will then return, indicating that the socket is writeable, but a subsequent write result in EAGAIN, effectively causing an (usual) application to 'poll for writeability by repeated send request with O_NONBLOCK set' until it has consumed its time quantum. The change below uses a suitably modified variant of the datagram_poll routines for both type of PF_UNIX sockets, which tests if the recv-queue of the peer a socket is connected to is presently considered to be 'full' as part of the 'is this socket writeable'-checking code. The socket being polled is additionally put onto the peer_wait wait queue associated with its peer, because the unix_dgram_sendmsg routine does a wake up on this queue after a datagram was received and the 'other wakeup call' is done implicitly as part of skb destruction, meaning, a process blocked in poll because of a full peer receive queue could otherwise sleep forever if no datagram owned by its socket was already sitting on this queue. Among this change is a small (inline) helper routine named 'unix_recvq_full', which consolidates the actual testing code (in three different places) into a single location. Signed-off-by:

By default, tun.c running in TUN_TUN_DEV mode will set the protocol of packet to IPv4 if TUN_NO_PI is set. My program failed to work when I assumed that the driver will check the first nibble of packet, determine IP version and set the appropriate protocol. Signed-off-by:

The atl1 driver tries to determine the MAC address thusly: - If an EEPROM exists, read the MAC address from EEPROM and validate it. - If an EEPROM doesn't exist, try to read a MAC address from SPI flash. - If that fails, try to read a MAC address directly from the MAC Station Address register. - If that fails, assign a random MAC address provided by the kernel. We now have a report of a system fitted with an EEPROM containing all zeros where we expect the MAC address to be, and we currently handle this as an error condition. Turns out, on this system the BIOS writes a valid MAC address to the NIC's MAC Station Address register, but we never try to read it because we return an error when we find the all- zeros address in EEPROM. This patch relaxes the error check and continues looking for a MAC address even if it finds an illegal one in EEPROM. Signed-off-by:

Keep enc28j60 chips in low-power mode when they're not in use. At typically 120 mA, these chips run hot even when idle; this low power mode cuts that power usage by a factor of around 100. This version provides a generic routine to poll a register until its masked value equals some value ... e.g. bit set or cleared. It's basically what the previous wait_phy_ready() did, but this version is generalized to support the handshaking needed to enter and exit low power mode. Signed-off-by:

When generating the ip header for the transformed packet we just copy the frag_off field of the ip header from the original packet to the ip header of the new generated packet. If we receive a packet as a chain of fragments, all but the last of the new generated packets have the IP_MF flag set. We have to mask the frag_off field to only keep the IP_DF flag from the original packet. This got lost with git commit 36cf9acf ("[IPSEC]: Separate inner/outer mode processing on output") Signed-off-by:

The H.245 helper is not registered/unregistered, but assigned to connections manually from the Q.931 helper.

The missing l3num initialization is enough for this, this patch changes it to use AF_UNSPEC to make it more explicit though. Reported-by:liannan <liannan@twsz.com> Signed-off-by:

Selected device feature bits can be propagated to VLAN devices, so we can make use of TX checksum offload and TSO on VLAN-tagged packets. However, if the physical device does not do VLAN tag insertion or generic checksum offload then the test for TX checksum offload in dev_queue_xmit() will see a protocol of htons(ETH_P_8021Q) and yield false. This splits the checksum offload test into two functions: - can_checksum_protocol() tests a given protocol against a feature bitmask - dev_can_checksum() first tests the skb protocol against the device features; if that fails and the protocol is htons(ETH_P_8021Q) then it tests the encapsulated protocol against the effective device features for VLANs Signed-off-by:

Right now, any time we set a primary transport we set the changeover_active flag. As a result, we invoke SFR-CACC even when there has been no changeover events. Only set changeover_active, when there is a true changeover event, i.e. we had a primary path and we are changing to another transport. Signed-off-by:
