Test the value that was just allocated rather than the previously tested one. A simplified version of the semantic match that finds this problem is as follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/) // <smpl> @r@ expression *x; expression e; identifier l; @@ if (x == NULL || ...) { ... when forall return ...; } ... when != goto l; when != x = e when != &x *x == NULL // </smpl> Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk> Signed-off-by: David S.

Kernel bugzilla #15239 On some workloads, it is quite possible to get a huge dst list to process in dst_gc_task(), and trigger soft lockup detection.

As noticed by Jon Masters <jonathan@jonmasters.org>, the conntrack hash size is global and not per namespace, but modifiable at runtime through /sys/module/nf_conntrack/hashsize. Changing the hash size will only resize the hash in the current namespace however, so other namespaces will use an invalid hash size. This can cause crashes when enlarging the hashsize, or false negative lookups when shrinking it. Move the hash size into the per-namespace data and only use the global hash size to initialize the per-namespace value when instanciating a new namespace. Additionally restrict hash resizing to init_net for now as other namespaces are not handled currently. Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> Signed-off-by: David S.

nf_conntrack_cachep is currently shared by all netns instances, but because of SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU special semantics, this is wrong. If we use a shared slab cache, one object can instantly flight between one hash table (netns ONE) to another one (netns TWO), and concurrent reader (doing a lookup in netns ONE, 'finding' an object of netns TWO) can be fooled without notice, because no RCU grace period has to be observed between object freeing and its reuse. We dont have this problem with UDP/TCP slab caches because TCP/UDP hashtables are global to the machine (and each object has a pointer to its netns). If we use per netns conntrack hash tables, we also *must* use per netns conntrack slab caches, to guarantee an object can not escape from one namespace to another one.

As discovered by Jon Masters <jonathan@jonmasters.org>, the "untracked" conntrack, which is located in the data section, might be accidentally freed when a new namespace is instantiated while the untracked conntrack is attached to a skb because the reference count it re-initialized. The best fix would be to use a seperate untracked conntrack per namespace since it includes a namespace pointer. Unfortunately this is not possible without larger changes since the namespace is not easily available everywhere we need it. For now move the untracked conntrack initialization to the init_net setup function to make sure the reference count is not re-initialized and handle cleanup in the init_net cleanup function to make sure namespaces can exit properly while the untracked conntrack is in use in other namespaces.

The report descriptor is read by user space (via the Service Discovery Protocol), so it is only available during the ioctl to connect. However, the HID probe function that needs the descriptor might not be called until a specific module is loaded. Keep a copy of the descriptor so it is available for later use.

This change corrects an issue that will cause false hangs when using either 82575 or 82580 in legacy interrupt mode. The issue is caused when there is a slow traffic flow and an "ethtool -r" is executed while using legacy or MSI interrupts. MSI-X is not affected by this issue due to the fact that we were already reconfiguring the vectors after reset. If possible it would be best to push this for net-2.6 since it is resolving a bug but if that is not possible then net-next-2.6 will be fine.

If we get an error from a PCI DMA call, we loop backwards through count until it becomes -1 and return that. The caller of ixgbe_tx_map expects 0 on error, so return that instead.

When in sniff mode with a long interval time (1.28s) it can take 4+ seconds to establish a SCO link. Fix by requesting active mode before requesting SCO connection. This improves SCO setup time to ~500ms. Bluetooth headsets that use a long interval time, and exhibit the long SCO connection time include Motorola H790, HX1 and H17. They have a CSR 2.1 chipset. Verified this behavior and fix with host Bluetooth chipsets: BCM4329 and TI1271. 2009-10-13 14:17:46.183722 > HCI Event: Mode Change (0x14) plen 6 status 0x00 handle 1 mode 0x02 interval 2048 Mode: Sniff 2009-10-13 14:17:53.436285 < HCI Command: Setup Synchronous Connection (0x01|0x0028) plen 17 handle 1 voice setting 0x0060 2009-10-13 14:17:53.445593 > HCI Event: Command Status (0x0f) plen 4 Setup Synchronous Connection (0x01|0x0028) status 0x00 ncmd 1 2009-10-13 14:17:57.788855 > HCI Event: Synchronous Connect Complete 0x2c) plen 17 status 0x00 handle 257 bdaddr 00:1A:0E:F1:A4:7F type eSCO Air mode: CVSD Signed-off-by: Nick Pelly <npelly@google.com> Signed-off-by: Marcel Holtmann <marcel@holtmann.org>

It fixes the construction of the first argument of try_then_request_module(), where only valid return codes from the first argument should be returned.

This fixes a bug introduced in commit de4ef86c ("dccp: fix dccp rmmod when kernel configured to use slub", 17 Jan): the vsnprintf used sizeof(slab_name_fmt), which became truncated to 4 bytes, since slab_name_fmt is now a 4-byte pointer and no longer a 32-character array. This lead to error messages such as FATAL: Error inserting dccp: No buffer space available >> kernel: [ 1456.341501] kmem_cache_create: duplicate cache cci generated due to the truncation after the 3rd character.

When processing a RFCOMM UA frame when the socket is closed and we were not the RFCOMM initiator would cause rfcomm_session_put() to be called twice during rfcomm_process_rx(). This would cause a kernel panic in rfcomm_session_close() then. This could be easily reproduced during disconnect with devices such as Motorola H270 that send RFCOMM UA followed quickly by L2CAP disconnect request.

Getting it is not used, let's drop support for notifications about (un)registered events from connector. Another option was to check credentials on receiving, but we can always restore it without bugs if needed, but genetlink has a wider code base and none complained, that userspace can not get notification when some other clients were (un)registered.

cev-isr reg offset for each function is better calculated using (any) eq-id alloted to that function instead of using pci-func number(which does not work in some configurations...) Signed-off-by: Sathya Perla <sathyap@serverengines.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

In commit 2da31939, support for Bluetooth hid_output_raw_report was added, but it pushes the data to the interrupt channel instead of the contol one. This patch makes hid_output_raw_report use the control channel instead. Using the interrupt channel was a mistake.

Commit ac019360 changed the irq handler logic to BUG_ON rather than returning IRQ_NONE when the incoming argument is invalid. While this works in most cases, it doesn't work when the IRQ is shared with other devices (or when DEBUG_SHIRQ is enabled). So revert the previous change and replace the warning message with a comment explaining that we want this behavior.
