It is possible that this skip path causes TCP to end up into an invalid state where ca_state was left to CA_Open while some segments already came into sacked_out. If next valid ACK doesn't contain new SACK information TCP fails to enter into tcp_fastretrans_alert(). Thus at least high_seq is set incorrectly to a too high seqno because some new data segments could be sent in between (and also, limited transmit is not being correctly invoked there). Reordering in both directions can easily cause this situation to occur. I guess we would want to use tcp_moderate_cwnd(tp) there as well as it may be possible to use this to trigger oversized burst to network by sending an old ACK with huge amount of SACK info, but I'm a bit unsure about its effects (mainly to FlightSize), so to be on the safe side I just currently fixed it minimally to keep TCP's state consistent (obviously, such nasty ACKs have been possible this far). Though it seems that FlightSize is already underestimated by some amount, so probably on the long term we might want to trigger recovery there too, if appropriate, to make FlightSize calculation to resemble reality at the time when the losses where discovered (but such change scares me too much now and requires some more thinking anyway how to do that as it likely involves some code shuffling). This bug was found by Brian Vowell while running my TCP debug patch to find cause of another TCP issue (fackets_out miscount).

In xt_connlimit match module, the counter of an IP is decreased when the TCP packet is go through the chain with ip_conntrack state TW. Well, it's very natural that the server and client close the socket with FIN packet. But when the client/server close the socket with RST packet(using so_linger), the counter for this connection still exsit.

The neighbor table time of last use information is returned in the incorrect unit. Kernel to user space ABI's need to use USER_HZ (or milliseconds), otherwise the application has to try and discover the real system HZ value which is problematic. Linux has standardized on keeping USER_HZ consistent (100hz) even when kernel is running internally at some other value. This change is small, but it breaks the ABI for older version of iproute2 utilities. But these utilities are already broken since they are looking at the psched_hz values which are completely different. So let's just go ahead and fix both kernel and user space. Older utilities will just print wrong values. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@vyatta.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

From: Jarek Poplawski <jarkao2@gmail.com> There is only one function in AX25 calling skb_append(), and it really looks suspicious: appends skb after previously enqueued one, but in the meantime this previous skb could be removed from the queue. This patch Fixes it the simple way, so this is not fully compatible with the current method, but testing hasn't shown any problems.

There's logic in __rfcomm_dlc_close: rfcomm_dlc_lock(d); d->state = BT_CLOSED; d->state_changed(d, err); rfcomm_dlc_unlock(d); In rfcomm_dev_state_change, it's possible that rfcomm_dev_put try to take the dlc lock, then we will deadlock. Here fixed it by unlock dlc before rfcomm_dev_get in rfcomm_dev_state_change. why not unlock just before rfcomm_dev_put? it's because there's another problem. rfcomm_dev_get/rfcomm_dev_del will take rfcomm_dev_lock, but in rfcomm_dev_add the lock order is : rfcomm_dev_lock --> dlc lock so I unlock dlc before the taken of rfcomm_dev_lock. Actually it's a regression caused by commit 1905f6c7 ("bluetooth : __rfcomm_dlc_close lock fix"), the dlc state_change could be two callbacks : rfcomm_sk_state_change and rfcomm_dev_state_change. I missed the rfcomm_sk_state_change that time. Thanks Arjan van de Ven <arjan@linux.intel.com> for the effort in commit 4c8411f8 ("bluetooth: fix locking bug in the rfcomm socket cleanup handling") but he missed the rfcomm_dev_state_change lock issue.

When we introduced support for KBUILD_EXTRA_SYMBOLS we started to include the externam module's kbuild file when doing the final modpost step. As external modules often do: ccflags-y := -I$(src) We had problems because $(src) was unassinged and gcc then used the next parameter for -I resulting in strange build failures. Fix is to assign $(src) and $(obj) when building external modules.

When using 4+ GB RAM and SWIOTLB is active, the driver corrupts memory by writing an skb after the relevant DMA page has been unmapped.

If we fail to transmit a packet, we assume the queue is full and put the skb into last_xmit_skb. However, if more space frees up before we xmit it, we loop, and the result can be transmitting the same skb twice.
