We assume that transhdrlen is positive on the first fragment which is wrong for raw packets. So we don't add exthdrlen to the packet size for raw packets. This leads to a reallocation on IPsec because we have not enough headroom on the skb to place the IPsec headers. This patch fixes this by adding exthdrlen to the packet size whenever the send queue of the socket is empty. This issue was introduced with git commit 1470ddf7 (inet: Remove explicit write references to sk/inet in ip_append_data) Signed-off-by:

We use priv->mutex to avoid race conditions between chswitch_done() and mac_channel_switch(), when marking channel switch in progress. But chswitch_done() can be called in atomic context from rx_csa() or with mutex already taken from commit_rxon(). To fix remove mutex from chswitch_done() and use atomic bitops for marking channel switch pending. Cc: stable@kernel.org # 2.6.39+ Signed-off-by:

Ignacy reports that sometimes after leaving an IBSS joining a new one didn't work because there still were stations on the list. He fixed it by flushing stations when attempting to join a new IBSS, but this shouldn't be happening in the first case. When I looked into it I saw a race condition in teardown that could cause stations to be added after flush, and thus cause this situation. Ignacy confirms that after applying my patch he hasn't seen this happen again. Reported-by:

When SR-IOV is enabled, i350 devices fail to pass traffic. This is due to the driver attempting to enable RSS on the PF device, which is not supported by the i350. When max_vfs is specified on an i350 adapter, set the number of RSS queues to 1. This issue affects 2.6.39 as well. CC: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by:

When one of the SSID's length passed in a scan or sched_scan request is larger than 255, there will be an overflow in the u8 that is used to store the length before checking. This causes the check to fail and we overrun the buffer when copying the SSID. Fix this by checking the nl80211 attribute length before copying it to the struct. This is a follow up for the previous commit 208c72f4, which didn't fix the problem entirely. Reported-by:

Frank Blaschka reported : <quote> During heavy network load we turn off/on cpus. Sometimes this causes a stall on the network device. Digging into the dump I found out following: napi is scheduled but does not run. From the I/O buffers and the napi state I see napi/rx_softirq processing has stopped because the budget was reached. napi stays in the softnet_data poll_list and the rx_softirq was raised again. I assume at this time the cpu offline comes in, the rx softirq is raised/moved to another cpu but napi stays in the poll_list of the softnet_data of the now offline cpu. Reviewing dev_cpu_callback (net/core/dev.c) I did not find the poll_list is transfered to the new cpu. </quote> This patch is a straightforward implementation of Frank suggestion : Transfert poll_list and trigger NET_RX_SOFTIRQ on new cpu.

This patch fixes 802.11n stability and performance regression we have since 2.6.35. It boost performance on my 5GHz N-only network from about 5MB/s to 8MB/s. Similar percentage boost can be observed on 2.4 GHz. These are test results of 5x downloading of approximately 700MB iso image: vanilla: 5.27 5.22 4.94 4.47 5.31 ; avr 5.0420 std 0.35110 patched: 8.07 7.95 8.06 7.99 7.96 ; avr 8.0060 std 0.055946 This was achieved with NetworkManager configured to do not perform periodical scans, by configuring constant BSSID. With periodical scans, after some time, performance downgrade to unpatched driver level, like in example below: patched: 7.40 7.61 4.28 4.37 4.80 avr 5.6920 std 1.6683 However patch still make better here, since similar test on unpatched driver make link disconnects with below messages after some time: wlan1: authenticate with 00:23:69:35:d1:3f (try 1) wlan1: authenticate with 00:23:69:35:d1:3f (try 2) wlan1: authenticate with 00:23:69:35:d1:3f (try 3) wlan1: authentication with 00:23:69:35:d1:3f timed out On 2.6.35 kernel patch helps against connection hangs with messages: iwlagn 0000:20:00.0: queue 10 stuck 3 time.

Fix the IPVS priority in LOCAL_IN hook, so that SNAT target in POSTROUTING is supported for IPVS traffic as in 2.6.36 where it worked depending on module load order. Before 2.6.37 we used priority 100 in LOCAL_IN to process remote requests. We used the same priority as iptables SNAT and if IPVS handlers are installed before SNAT handlers we supported SNAT in POSTROUTING for the IPVS traffic. If SNAT is installed before IPVS, the netfilter handlers are before IPVS and netfilter checks the NAT table twice for the IPVS requests: once in LOCAL_IN where IPS_SRC_NAT_DONE is set and second time in POSTROUTING where the SNAT rules are ignored because IPS_SRC_NAT_DONE was already set in LOCAL_IN. But in 2.6.37 we changed the IPVS priority for LOCAL_IN with the goal to be unique (101) forgetting the fact that for IPVS traffic we should not walk both LOCAL_IN and POSTROUTING nat tables. So, change the priority for processing remote IPVS requests from 101 to 99, i.e. before NAT_SRC (100) because we prefer to support SNAT in POSTROUTING instead of LOCAL_IN. It also moves the priority for IPVS replies from 99 to 98. Use constants instead of magic numbers at these places. Signed-off-by:

The bonding driver is multiqueue enabled, in which each queue represents a slave to enable optional steering of output frames to given slaves against the default output policy. However, it needs to reset the skb->queue_mapping prior to queuing to the physical device or the physical slave (if it is multiqueue) could wind up transmitting on an unintended tx queue Change Notes: v2) Based on first pass review, updated the patch to restore the origional queue mapping that was found in bond_select_queue, rather than simply resetting to zero. This preserves the value of queue_mapping when it was set on receive in the forwarding case which is desireable. v3) Fixed spelling an casting error in skb->cb v4) fixed to store raw queue_mapping to avoid double decrement v5) Eric D requested that ->cb access be wrapped in a macro.
