      wl1271: Fix RX data path frame lengths · b9f2e39d
      Juuso Oikarinen authored
      The current frame length used by the driver for RX frames is the SPI bus
      transfer length. This length has padding bytes, which do not belong to the
      WLAN frame.
      
      As there is no other length information in the WLAN frame except the skb
      length this problem caused for instance extra ESSID's to be listed at the
      end of scan results (IE id 0) with zero length.
      
      Fix the frame length by removing padding.

      iwlwifi: fix internal scan race · 073d5eab
      Reinette Chatre authored
      It is possible for internal scan to race against itself if the device is
      not returning the scan results from first requests. What happens in this
      case is the cleanup done during the abort of the first internal scan also
      cleans up part of the new scan, causing it to access memory it shouldn't.
      
      Here are details:
      * First internal scan is triggered and scan command sent to device.
      * After seven seconds there is no scan results so the watchdog timer
        triggers a scan abort.
      * The scan abort succeeds and a SCAN_COMPLETE_NOTIFICATION is received for
       failed scan.
      * During processing of SCAN_COMPLETE_NOTIFICATION we clear STATUS_SCANNING
        and queue the "scan_completed" work.
      ** At this time, since the problem that caused the internal scan in first
         place is still present, a new internal scan is triggered.
      The behavior at this point is a bit different between 2.6.34 and 2.6.35
      since 2.6.35 has a lot of this synchronized. The rest of the race
      description will thus be generalized.
      ** As part of preparing for the scan "is_internal_short_scan" is set to
      true.
      * At this point the completion work for fist scan is run. As part of this
        there is some locking missing around the "is_internal_short_scan"
        variable and it is set to "false".
      ** Now the second scan runs and it considers itself a real (not internal0
         scan and thus causes problems with wrong memory being accessed.
      
      The fix is twofold.
      * Since "is_internal_short_scan" should be protected by mutex, fix this in
        scan completion work so that changes to it can be serialized.
      * Do not queue a new internal scan if one is in progress.

      net: fix problem in dequeuing from input_pkt_queue · 76cc8b13
      Tom Herbert authored
      Fix some issues introduced in batch skb dequeuing for input_pkt_queue.
      The primary issue it that the queue head must be incremented only
      after a packet has been processed, that is only after
      __netif_receive_skb has been called.  This is needed for the mechanism
      to prevent OOO packet in RFS.  Also when flushing the input_pkt_queue
      and process_queue, the process queue should be done first to prevent
      OOO packets.
      
      Because the input_pkt_queue has been effectively split into two queues,
      the calculation of the tail ptr is no longer correct.  The correct value
      would be head+input_pkt_queue->len+process_queue->len.  To avoid
      this calculation we added an explict input_queue_tail in softnet_data.
      The tail value is simply incremented when queuing to input_pkt_queue.

      can: SJA1000 add missing spin_lock_init() · 1f01bfd2
      Oliver Hartkopp authored
      As remarked by Sam Ravnborg the spin_lock variable, that has been introduced
      in commit 57c8a456 ("can: Fix SJA1000 command
      register writes on SMP systems") has not been initialized properly.
      
      This patch adds the initialization to allow spinlock debugging.

      gro: Fix bogus gso_size on the first fraglist entry · 622e0ca1
      Herbert Xu authored
      When GRO produces fraglist entries, and the resulting skb hits
      an interface that is incapable of TSO but capable of FRAGLIST,
      we end up producing a bogus packet with gso_size non-zero.
      
      This was reported in the field with older versions of KVM that
      did not set the TSO bits on tuntap.
      
      This patch fixes that.

      ixgbe:add support for a new 82599 10G Base-T device · 119fc60a
      Mallikarjuna R Chilakala authored
      This adds support for a new copper device for 82599, device id 0x151c.
      This 82599 10GBase-T device uses the PHY's internal temperature sensor
      to guard against over-temp conditions. In this scenario the PHY will be
      put in a low power mode and link will no longer be able to transmit or
      receive any data. When this occurs, the over-temp interrupt is latched
      and driver logs this error message. A HW reset or power cycle is
      required to clear this status.
