The dma descriptors indexes are only initialized on the probe function. If a packet is on the buffer when temac_stop is called, the dma descriptors indexes can be left on a incorrect state where no other package can be sent. So an interface could be left in an usable state after ifdow/ifup. This patch makes sure that the descriptors indexes are in a proper status when the device is open.

It is possible for the timer handlers to run after the call to ipv6_mc_down so use in6_dev_put instead of __in6_dev_put in the handler function in order to do proper cleanup when the refcnt reaches 0. Otherwise, the refcnt can reach zero without the inet6_dev being destroyed and we end up leaking a reference to the net_device and see messages like the following, unregister_netdevice: waiting for eth0 to become free.

Currently IEEE 1588 timer reference clock source is determined through hard-coded value in gianfar_ptp driver. This patch allows to select ptp clock source by means of device tree file node. For instance: fsl,cksel = <0>; for using external (TSEC_TMR_CLK input) high precision timer reference clock. Other acceptable values: <1> : eTSEC system clock <2> : eTSEC1 transmit clock <3> : RTC clock input When this attribute isn't used, eTSEC system clock will serve as IEEE 1588 timer reference clock.

Recently grabbed this report: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1005567 Of an issue in which the bonding driver, with an attached vlan encountered the following errors when bond0 was taken down and back up: dummy1: promiscuity touches roof, set promiscuity failed. promiscuity feature of device might be broken. The error occurs because, during __bond_release_one, if we release our last slave, we take on a random mac address and issue a NETDEV_CHANGEADDR notification. With an attached vlan, the vlan may see that the vlan and bond mac address were in sync, but no longer are. This triggers a call to dev_uc_add and dev_set_rx_mode, which enables IFF_PROMISC on the bond device. Then, when we complete __bond_release_one, we use the current state of the bond flags to determine if we should decrement the promiscuity of the releasing slave. But since the bond changed promiscuity state during the release operation, we incorrectly decrement the slave promisc count when it wasn't in promiscuous mode to begin with, causing the above error Fix is pretty simple, just cache the bonding flags at the start of the function and use those when determining the need to set promiscuity. This is also needed for the ALLMULTI flag CC: Jay Vosburgh <fubar@us.ibm.com> CC: Andy Gospodarek <andy@greyhouse.net> CC: Mark Wu <wudxw@linux.vnet.ibm.com> CC: "David S.

When TCP Small Queues was added, we used a sysctl to limit amount of packets queues on Qdisc/device queues for a given TCP flow. Problem is this limit is either too big for low rates, or too small for high rates. Now TCP stack has rate estimation in sk->sk_pacing_rate, and TSO auto sizing, it can better control number of packets in Qdisc/device queues. New limit is two packets or at least 1 to 2 ms worth of packets. Low rates flows benefit from this patch by having even smaller number of packets in queues, allowing for faster recovery, better RTT estimations. High rates flows benefit from this patch by allowing more than 2 packets in flight as we had reports this was a limiting factor to reach line rate. [ In particular if TX completion is delayed because of coalescing parameters ] Example for a single flow on 10Gbp link controlled by FQ/pacing 14 packets in flight instead of 2 $ tc -s -d qd qdisc fq 8001: dev eth0 root refcnt 32 limit 10000p flow_limit 100p buckets 1024 quantum 3028 initial_quantum 15140 Sent 1168459366606 bytes 771822841 pkt (dropped 0, overlimits 0 requeues 6822476) rate 9346Mbit 771713pps backlog 953820b 14p requeues 6822476 2047 flow, 2046 inactive, 1 throttled, delay 15673 ns 2372 gc, 0 highprio, 0 retrans, 9739249 throttled, 0 flows_plimit Note that sk_pacing_rate is currently set to twice the actual rate, but this might be refined in the future when a flow is in congestion avoidance.

Consider the scenario where an IPv6 router is advertising a fixed preferred_lft of 1800 seconds, while the valid_lft begins at 3600 seconds and counts down in realtime. A client should reset its preferred_lft to 1800 every time the RA is received, but a bug is causing Linux to ignore the update. The core problem is here: if (prefered_lft != ifp->prefered_lft) { Note that ifp->prefered_lft is an offset, so it doesn't decrease over time. Thus, the comparison is always (1800 != 1800), which fails to trigger an update. The most direct solution would be to compute a "stored_prefered_lft", and use that value in the comparison. But I think that trying to filter out unnecessary updates here is a premature optimization. In order for the filter to apply, both of these would need to hold: - The advertised valid_lft and preferred_lft are both declining in real time. - No clock skew exists between the router & client. So in this patch, I've set "update_lft = 1" unconditionally, which allows the surrounding code to be greatly simplified.

Eric W. Biederman authored
There is currently serialization network namespaces exiting and network devices exiting as the final part of netdev_run_todo does not happen under the rtnl_lock. This is compounded by the fact that the only list of devices unregistering in netdev_run_todo is local to the netdev_run_todo. This lack of serialization in extreme cases results in network devices unregistering in netdev_run_todo after the loopback device of their network namespace has been freed (making dst_ifdown unsafe), and after the their network namespace has exited (making the NETDEV_UNREGISTER, and NETDEV_UNREGISTER_FINAL callbacks unsafe). Add the missing serialization by a per network namespace count of how many network devices are unregistering and having a wait queue that is woken up whenever the count is decreased. The count and wait queue allow default_device_exit_batch to wait until all of the unregistration activity for a network namespace has finished before proceeding to unregister the loopback device and then allowing the network namespace to exit. Only a single global wait queue is used because there is a single global lock, and there is a single waiter, per network namespace wait queues would be a waste of resources. The per network namespace count of unregistering devices gives a progress guarantee because the number of network devices unregistering in an exiting network namespace must ultimately drop to zero (assuming network device unregistration completes). The basic logic remains the same as in v1. This patch is now half comment and half rtnl_lock_unregistering an expanded version of wait_event performs no extra work in the common case where no network devices are unregistering when we get to default_device_exit_batch.

(by Andre Guedes) * a fix for dealing devices where pairing is not necessary, we were keeping the Bluetooth ACL connection alive for too much time.

Alexey Khoroshilov brings a p54usb fix to avoid a resource leak when request_firmware_nowait fails. Amitkumar Karwar fixes a firmware hang caused by too much header data being appended for USB devices using the mwifiex driver. Arend van Spriel provides three fixes: a brcmfmac fix to relocate some driver code outside of an .init section; a scheduling while atomic fix for bcma; and, another scheduling while atomic fix for brcmsmac. Bing Zhao offers a pair of mwifiex fixes: a code change to avoid firmware timeouts on USB; and a fix for a NULL pointer dereference. Christian Lamparter adds a device ID to p54usb. Felix Fietkau implements a quartet of small ath9k fixes, including a locking fix, a list management fix, a fix to properly mark a stale buffer, and an aggregate buffering fix. Larry Finger champions a data alignment fix to make rtlwifi work better with ARM builds.
