Depending on how a packet is vlan tagged (i.e. hardware accelerated or not), the encapsulated protocol is stored in different locations. This provides a consistent method of accessing that protocol, which is needed by drivers, security checks, etc. Signed-off-by: Hao Zheng <hzheng@nicira.com> Signed-off-by: Jesse Gross <jesse@nicira.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

For device that supports VIRTIO_NET_F_STATUS, there's no need to assume the link is up and we need to call nerif_carrier_off() before querying device status, otherwise we may get wrong operstate after diver was loaded because the link watch event was not fired as expected. For device that does not support VIRITO_NET_F_STATUS, we could not get its status through virtnet_update_status() and what we can only do is always assuming the link is up. Acked-by: Michael S.

ucc_geth_close lacks a cancel_work_sync(&ugeth->timeout_work) to stop any outstanding processing of TX fail. However, one can not call cancel_work_sync without fixing the timeout function otherwise it will deadlock. This patch brings ucc_geth in line with gianfar: Don't bring the interface down and up, just reinit controller HW and PHY.

nlmsg_total_size() calculates the length of a netlink message including header and alignment. nla_total_size() calculates the space an individual attribute consumes which was meant to be used in this context. Also, ensure to account for the attribute header for the IFLA_INFO_XSTATS attribute as implementations of get_xstats_size() seem to assume that we do so. The addition of two message headers minus the missing attribute header resulted in a calculated message size that was larger than required. Therefore we never risked running out of skb tailroom.

The NF_HOOK_COND returns 0 when it shouldn't due to what I believe to be an error in the code as the order of operations is not what was intended. C will evalutate == before =. Which means ret is getting set to the bool result, rather than the return value of the function call. The code says if (ret = function() == 1) when it meant to say: if ((ret = function()) == 1) Normally the compiler would warn, but it doesn't notice it because its a actually complex conditional and so the wrong code is wrapped in an explict set of () [exactly what the compiler wants you to do if this was intentional]. Fixing this means that errors when netfilter denies a packet get propagated back up the stack rather than lost. Problem introduced by commit 2249065f (netfilter: get rid of the grossness in netfilter.h).

As noted by Steve Chen, since commit f5fff5dc ("tcp: advertise MSS requested by user") we can end up with a situation where tcp_select_initial_window() does a divide by a zero (or even negative) mss value. The problem is that sometimes we effectively subtract TCPOLEN_TSTAMP_ALIGNED and/or TCPOLEN_MD5SIG_ALIGNED from the mss. Fix this by increasing the minimum from 8 to 64.

It leads to leaking of contents of kernel stack memory. We have to fully fill sa_data with strncpy() instead of strlcpy().

There is a possibility malicious users can get limited information about uninitialized stack mem array. Even if sk_run_filter() result is bound to packet length (0 .. 65535), we could imagine this can be used by hostile user. Initializing mem[] array, like Dan Rosenberg suggested in his patch is expensive since most filters dont even use this array. Its hard to make the filter validation in sk_chk_filter(), because of the jumps. This might be done later. In this patch, I use a bitmap (a single long var) so that only filters using mem[] loads/stores pay the price of added security checks. For other filters, additional cost is a single instruction.

Its important to call dst_dev_event() after other notifiers, or we might enter the infamous msleep(250) in netdev_wait_allrefs(), and wait one second before calling again call_netdevice_notifiers(NETDEV_UNREGISTER, dev) to properly remove last device references.

When initiating dedicated bonding a L2CAP raw socket with HIGH security level is used. The kernel is supposed to trigger the authentication request in this case but this doesn't happen currently for non-SSP (pre-2.1) devices. The reason is that the authentication request happens in the remote extended features callback which never gets called for non-SSP devices. This patch fixes the issue by requesting also authentiation in the (normal) remote features callback in the case of non-SSP devices. This rule is applied only for HIGH security level which might at first seem unintuitive since on the server socket side MEDIUM is already enough for authentication. However, for the clients we really want to prefer the server side to decide the authentication requrement in most cases, and since most client sockets use MEDIUM it's better to be avoided on the kernel side for these sockets. The important socket to request it for is the dedicated bonding one and that socket uses HIGH security level. The patch is based on the initial investigation and patch proposal from Andrei Emeltchenko <endrei.emeltchenko@nokia.com>.

And the recent commit "check the endpoint type against the pipe type" added aditional error checking against pipe types under CONFIG_USB_DEBUG.

Bit 22 of AR_WA should be set to fix the situation where chip reset is asynchronous to clock of analog shift registers, such that when reset is released, it could mess up the values of analog shift registers and cause some hw issue on AR9280. This bit is write only, but the driver does a read-modify-write on AR_WA without setting bit 22 in ar9002_hw_configpcipowersave() during radio disable. This causes surprise removal of hw. It can never recover from this state and the hw will become usable only after a power on/off cycle, and sometimes only during a cold reboot. This issue can be triggered by doing frequent roaming with the simple/test-roam script available from the wifi-test project [1] when roaming between APs quickly. When roaming there is a is a high possibility that the device being put into idle (radio disable) state by mac80211 during AUTH->ASSOC.

There are currently no provisions in place to ensure that the scanning task has been stopped when the interface is stopped or removed. This can result in a WARNING at net/wireless/core.c:643 and other badness when you remove the module while a scan is happening. Terminate the scanning task during interface stop.

For client STA interfaces, ieee80211_do_stop unsets the relevant interface's SDATA_STATE_RUNNING state bit prior to cancelling an interrupted scan. When ieee80211_offchannel_return is invoked as part of cancelling the scan, it doesn't bother unsetting the SDATA_STATE_OFFCHANNEL bit because it sees that the interface is down. Normally this doesn't matter because when the client STA interface is brought back up, it will probably issue a scan. But in some cases (e.g., the user changes the interface type while it is down), the SDATA_STATE_OFFCHANNEL bit will remain set. This prevents the interface queues from being started. So we cancel the scan before unsetting the SDATA_STATE_RUNNING bit. Signed-off-by: Brian Cavagnolo <brian@cozybit.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

ath9k_ps_wakeup() clears the cycle counters after waking up the hardware using ath9k_hw_setpower, however if power save is disabled, then the counters will contain useful data, which then gets discarded. Fix this by checking the old power mode before discarding any data. Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

The HW opmode is blindly set to monitor type on monitor mode change notification. This overrides the opmode when one of the interfaces is still running as non-monitor iftype. So the monitoring information needs to be maintained seperately. Signed-off-by: Rajkumar Manoharan <rmanoharan@atheros.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

This bug seems to be due to commit 27ae60f8 ("ipw2x00: replace "ieee80211" with "libipw" where appropriate"), where Pavel did this: - libipw_proc = proc_mkdir(DRV_NAME, init_net.proc_net); + libipw_proc = proc_mkdir("ieee80211", init_net.proc_net); but then the cleanup was kept as remove_proc_entry(DRV_NAME, init_net.proc_net); in both places (both in the failure case and in the unload case). The error string is also total crap, and says "Unable to create " DRV_NAME " proc directory\n"); Even though it doesn't actually create a proc directory named DRV_NAME at all. So that patch looks like total and utter crap to me. The commit message says "Keep /proc/net/ieee80211 under the original name to avoid breaking user interface." but the thing is, it really didn't fix anything but that one create thing. It needs to fix all the other cases too. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Tested-by: Randy Dunlap <randy.dunlap@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: John W.
