mib_counters_update() also restarts the timer. So the timer is dequeued, the stats are read and then the timer is enqueued again. This is "okay" unless someone unloads the module. The locking here is also broken: mib_counters_update() grabs just a simple spinlock. The only thing the lock is good for is to protect the timer func against other callers namely mv643xx_eth_stop() && mv643xx_eth_get_ethtool_stats(). That means if the spinlock is taken via the ethtool path and than the timer kicks in then the box will lock up.

A long time ago we had bugs, primarily in TCP, where we would modify skb->truesize (for TSO queue collapsing) in ways which would corrupt the socket memory accounting. skb_truesize_check() was added in order to try and catch this error more systematically. However this debugging check has morphed into a Frankenstein of sorts and these days it does nothing other than catch false-positives. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Commit f55c21fd ("forcedeth: call restore mac addr in nv_shutdown path"), which was introduced to fix the regression tracked at http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11358 causes the wake-on-lan mac to be reversed in the shutdown path. Apparently the forcedeth situation is rather messy in that the mac we need to writeback for a subsequent modprobe to work is exactly the reverse of what is needed for proper wake-on-lan. The following patch explains the situation in the comments and makes the call to nv_restore_mac_addr() conditional (only called if we are not really going for poweroff).

When a non-wimax interface is looked up by the stack, a bad pointer is returned when the looked-up interface is not found in the list (of registered WiMAX interfaces). This causes an oops in the caller when trying to use the pointer. Fix by properly setting the pointer to NULL if we don't exit from the list_for_each() with a found entry.

In function sock_getsockopt() located in net/core/sock.c, optval v.val is not correctly initialized and directly returned in userland in case we have SO_BSDCOMPAT option set. This dummy code should trigger the bug: int main(void) { unsigned char buf[4] = { 0, 0, 0, 0 }; int len; int sock; sock = socket(33, 2, 2); getsockopt(sock, 1, SO_BSDCOMPAT, &buf, &len); printf("%x%x%x%x\n", buf[0], buf[1], buf[2], buf[3]); close(sock); } Here is a patch that fix this bug by initalizing v.val just after its declaration.

The problem is that in_atomic() will return false inside spinlocks if CONFIG_PREEMPT=n. This will lead to deadlockable GFP_KERNEL allocations from spinlocked regions. Secondly, if CONFIG_PREEMPT=y, this bug solves itself because networking will instead use GFP_ATOMIC from this callsite. Hence we won't get the might_sleep() debugging warnings which would have informed us of the buggy callsites. Solve both these problems by switching to in_interrupt(). Now, if someone runs a gfp_any() allocation from inside spinlock we will get the warning if CONFIG_PREEMPT=y. I reviewed all callsites and most of them were too complex for my little brain and none of them documented their interface requirements. I have no idea what this patch will do.

Here we do two things: First, revert "iwlwifi: save PCI state before suspend, restore after resume". That misguided patch led to being unable to use iwlwifi devices after resume. Next, indicate to PCI driver that the saved PCI state is valid during suspend. We restore PCI state and enable the device when network interface is created, similarly PCI state is saved and the device is disabled when network interface is removed. Thus, when .suspend is called the PCI state is saved and device is disabled. This is the case even if an interface is never created as PCI state is saved and device disabled during .probe. PCI driver assumes PCI state is saved in .suspend. Saving the state at this time will save state of disabled device and thus cause problems during resume (resuming a disabled device). We thus indicate directly to PCI driver that current PCI saved state is valid.

Currently, the sunhme driver installs SBus Quattro interrupt handler when at least one HME card was initialized correctly and at least one Quattro card is present. This breaks when a Quattro card fails initialization for whatever reason - IRQ is registered and OOPS happens when it fires. The solution, as suggested by David Miller, was to keep track which cards of the Quattro bundles have been initialized, and request/free the Quattro IRQ only when all four devices have been successfully initialized. The patch only touches SBus initialization - PCI init already resets the card pointer to NULL on init failure. The patch has been tested on Sun E3500 with SBus and PCI single HME cards and one PCI Quattro HME card in a situation where any PCI card failed init when the SBus routines tried to init them by mistake. Additionally it replaces Quattro request_irq panic with error return - if this card fails to work, at least let the others work. Tested on E450 with PCI HME and PCI Quad HME.
