      mac80211: fix on-channel remain-on-channel · b4b177a5
      Johannes Berg authored
      Jouni reported that if a remain-on-channel was active on the
      same channel as the current operating channel, then the ROC
      would start, but any frames transmitted using mgmt-tx on the
      same channel would get delayed until after the ROC.
      
      The reason for this is that the ROC starts, but doesn't have
      any handling for "remain on the same channel", so it stops
      the interface queues. The later mgmt-tx then puts the frame
      on the interface queues (since it's on the current operating
      channel) and thus they get delayed until after the ROC.
      
      To fix this, add some logic to handle remaining on the same
      channel specially and not stop the queues etc. in this case.
      This not only fixes the bug but also improves behaviour in
      this case as data frames etc. can continue to flow.

      mac80211: fix vif name tracing · f9ac71bf
      Eliad Peller authored
      If sdata doesn't have a valid dev (e.g. in case of monitor
      vif), the vif_name field was initialized with (a length of)
      some short string, but later was set to a different,
      potentially larger one.
      
      This resulted in out-of-bounds write, which usually
      appeared as garbage in the trace log.
      
      Simply trace sdata->name, as it should always have the
      correct name for both cases.

      mac80211: allow VHT with peers not capable of 40MHz · 4a817aa7
      Johannes Berg authored
      There are two (related) issues with this.
      
      One case, reported by Michal, is related to hostap: it unsets the
      20/40 capability bit for stations that associate when it's in 20
      MHz mode.
      
      The other case, reported by Eyal, is that some APs like Netgear
      R6300v2 and probably others based on the BCM4360 chipset can be
      configured for doing VHT at 20Mhz. In this case the beacon has
      a VHT IE but the HT cap indicates transmitter only support 20Mhz.
      
      In both of these cases, we currently avoid VHT and use only HT
      this means we can't use the highest rates (MCS8), so fixing this
      leads to throughput improvements.

      net: sctp: wake up all assocs if sndbuf policy is per socket · 52c35bef
      Daniel Borkmann authored
      SCTP charges chunks for wmem accounting via skb->truesize in
      sctp_set_owner_w(), and sctp_wfree() respectively as the
      reverse operation. If a sender runs out of wmem, it needs to
      wait via sctp_wait_for_sndbuf(), and gets woken up by a call
      to __sctp_write_space() mostly via sctp_wfree().
      
      __sctp_write_space() is being called per association. Although
      we assign sk->sk_write_space() to sctp_write_space(), which
      is then being done per socket, it is only used if send space
      is increased per socket option (SO_SNDBUF), as SOCK_USE_WRITE_QUEUE
      is set and therefore not invoked in sock_wfree().
      
      Commit 4c3a5bda ("sctp: Don't charge for data in sndbuf
      again when transmitting packet") fixed an issue where in case
      sctp_packet_transmit() manages to queue up more than sndbuf
      bytes, sctp_wait_for_sndbuf() will never be woken up again
      unless it is interrupted by a signal. However, a still
      remaining issue is that if net.sctp.sndbuf_policy=0, that is
      accounting per socket, and one-to-many sockets are in use,
      the reclaimed write space from sctp_wfree() is 'unfairly'
      handed back on the server to the association that is the lucky
      one to be woken up again via __sctp_write_space(), while
      the remaining associations are never be woken up again
      (unless by a signal).
      
      The effect disappears with net.sctp.sndbuf_policy=1, that
      is wmem accounting per association, as it guarantees a fair
      share of wmem among associations.
      
      Therefore, if we have reclaimed memory in case of per socket
      accounting, wake all related associations to a socket in a
      fair manner, that is, traverse the socket association list
      starting from the current neighbour of the association and
      issue a __sctp_write_space() to everyone until we end up
      waking ourselves. This guarantees that no association is
      preferred over another and even if more associations are
      taken into the one-to-many session, all receivers will get
      messages from the server and are not stalled forever on
      high load. This setting still leaves the advantage of per
      socket accounting in touch as an association can still use
      up global limits if unused by others.

      isdnloop: several buffer overflows · 7563487c
      Dan Carpenter authored
      There are three buffer overflows addressed in this patch.
      
      1) In isdnloop_fake_err() we add an 'E' to a 60 character string and
      then copy it into a 60 character buffer.  I have made the destination
      buffer 64 characters and I'm changed the sprintf() to a snprintf().
      
      2) In isdnloop_parse_cmd(), p points to a 6 characters into a 60
      character buffer so we have 54 characters.  The ->eazlist[] is 11
      characters long.  I have modified the code to return if the source
      buffer is too long.
      
      3) In isdnloop_command() the cbuf[] array was 60 characters long but the
      max length of the string then can be up to 79 characters.  I made the
      cbuf array 80 characters long and changed the sprintf() to snprintf().
      I also removed the temporary "dial" buffer and changed it to use "p"
      directly.
      
      Unfortunately, we pass the "cbuf" string from isdnloop_command() to
      isdnloop_writecmd() which truncates anything over 60 characters to make
      it fit in card->omsg[].  (It can accept values up to 255 characters so
      long as there is a '\n' character every 60 characters).  For now I have
      just fixed the memory corruption bug and left the other problems in this
      driver alone.

      DRM: armada: fix corruption while loading cursors · c39b0695
      Russell King authored
      Loading cursors to the LCD controller's SRAM can be corrupted when the
      configured pixel clock is relatively slow.  This seems to be caused
      when we write back-to-back to the SRAM registers.
      
      There doesn't appear to be any status register we can read to check
      when an access has completed.
      
      Inserting a dummy read between the writes appears to fix the problem.
