2009-04-17cfg80211: do not replace BSS structsJohannes Berg
Instead, allocate extra IE memory if necessary. Normally, this isn't even necessary since there's enough space. This is a better way of correcting the "held BSS can disappear" issue, but also a lot more code. It is also necessary for proper auth/assoc BSS handling in the future.

2009-04-17cfg80211: copy hold when replacing BSSJohannes Berg
When we receive a probe response frame we can replace the BSS struct in our list -- but if that struct is held then we need to hold the new one as well. We really should fix this completely and not replace the struct, but this is a bandaid for now. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W.

2009-04-17netfilter: nfnetlink: return ENOMEM if we fail to create netlink socketPablo Neira Ayuso
With this patch, nfnetlink returns -ENOMEM instead of -EPERM if we fail to create the nfnetlink netlink socket during the module loading. This is exactly what rtnetlink does in this case. Ideally, it would be better if we propagate the error that has happened in netlink_kernel_create(), however, this function still does not implement this yet.

2009-04-17gro: Fix use after free in tcp_gro_receiveHerbert Xu
After calling skb_gro_receive skb->len can no longer be relied on since if the skb was merged using frags, then its pages will have been removed and the length reduced. This caused tcp_gro_receive to prematurely end merging which resulted in suboptimal performance with ixgbe. The fix is to store skb->len on the stack.

2009-04-17can: Network Drop Monitor: Make use of consume_skb() in af_can.cOliver Hartkopp
Since commit ead2ceb0ec9f85cff19c43b5cdb2f8a054484431 ("Network Drop Monitor: Adding kfree_skb_clean for non-drops and modifying end-of-line points for skbs") so called end-of-line points for skb's should use consume_skb() to free the socket buffer. In opposite to consume_skb() the function kfree_skb() is intended to be used for unexpected skb drops e.g. in error conditions that now can trigger the network drop monitor if enabled. This patch moves the skb end-of-line point in af_can.c to use consume_skb(). Signed-off-by: Oliver Hartkopp <oliver@hartkopp.net> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2009-04-17macb: process the RX ring regardless of interrupt statusErik Waling
Suppose that we receive lots of frames, start processing them, but exhaust our budget so that we return before we had a chance to look at all of them. Then, when the network layer calls us again, we will only continue processing the buffers if the REC bit was set in the mean time, which it might not be if there was a brief pause in the flow of packets. If this happens, we'll simply display a warning and call netif_rx_complete() with potentially lots of unprocessed packets in the RX ring... Fix this by scanning the ring no matter what flags are set in the interrupt status register.

2009-04-16netfilter: nf_nat: add support for persistent mappingsPatrick McHardy
The removal of the SAME target accidentally removed one feature that is not available from the normal NAT targets so far, having multi-range mappings that use the same mapping for each connection from a single client. The current behaviour is to choose the address from the range based on source and destination IP, which breaks when communicating with sites having multiple addresses that require all connections to originate from the same IP address. Introduce a IP_NAT_RANGE_PERSISTENT option that controls whether the destination address is taken into account for selecting addresses. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12954 Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net>

2009-04-16rt2x00: prevent double kfree when failing to register hardwareHerton Ronaldo Krzesinski
In a scenario where there isn't any firmware available, we will have a double kfree of rt2x00dev->spec.channels_info when ieee80211_register_hw returns an error status inside rt2x00lib_probe_hw. The problem is that if ieee80211_register_hw fails, we call rt2x00lib_remove_hw twice: * first inside rt2x00lib_probe_hw upon failure of ieee80211_register_hw * error status is returned to rt2x00lib_probe_dev, which then sees it and calls in this case rt2x00lib_remove_dev that will again run rt2x00lib_remove_hw Prevent this avoiding calling rt2x00lib_remove_hw inside rt2x00lib_probe_hw Problem was detected with CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC=y, CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG=y, CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG_ON=y, that dumps this with no firmware available: rt61pci 0000:00:07.0: PCI INT A -> GSI 19 (level, low) -> IRQ 19 wmaster0 (rt61pci): not using net_device_ops yet phy0: Selected rate control algorithm 'pid' phy0: Failed to initialize wep: -2 phy0 -> rt2x00lib_probe_dev: Error - Failed to initialize hw. ============================================================================= BUG kmalloc-128: Object already free ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- INFO: Allocated in rt61pci_probe_hw+0x3e5/0x6e0 [rt61pci] age=340 cpu=0 pid=21 INFO: Freed in rt2x00lib_remove_hw+0x59/0x70 [rt2x00lib] age=0 cpu=0 pid=21 INFO: Slab 0xc13ac3e0 objects=23 used=10 fp=0xdd59f6e0 flags=0x400000c3 INFO: Object 0xdd59f6e0 @offset=1760 fp=0xdd59f790 Bytes b4 0xdd59f6d0: 15 00 00 00 b2 8a fb ff 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a ....².ûÿZZZZZZZZ Object 0xdd59f6e0: 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk Object 0xdd59f6f0: 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk Object 0xdd59f700: 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk Object 0xdd59f710: 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk Object 0xdd59f720: 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk Object 0xdd59f730: 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk Object 0xdd59f740: 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk Object 0xdd59f750: 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b a5 kkkkkkkkkkkkkkk¥ Redzone 0xdd59f760: bb bb bb bb »»»» Padding 0xdd59f788: 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a ZZZZZZZZ Pid: 21, comm: stage1 Not tainted 2.6.29.1-desktop-1.1mnb #1 Call Trace: [<c01abbb3>] print_trailer+0xd3/0x120 [<c01abd37>] object_err+0x37/0x50 [<c01acf57>] __slab_free+0xe7/0x2f0 [<c01ad1de>] kfree+0x7e/0xd0 [<e0e4a239>] ? rt2x00lib_remove_hw+0x59/0x70 [rt2x00lib] [<e0e4a239>] ? rt2x00lib_remove_hw+0x59/0x70 [rt2x00lib] [<e0e4a239>] rt2x00lib_remove_hw+0x59/0x70 [rt2x00lib] [<e0e4acc7>] rt2x00lib_remove_dev+0x37/0x50 [rt2x00lib] [<e0e4b087>] rt2x00lib_probe_dev+0x1a7/0x3b0 [rt2x00lib] [<e0eb288f>] rt2x00pci_probe+0xdf/0x1ee [rt2x00pci] [<c026b9ee>] local_pci_probe+0xe/0x10 [<c026c750>] pci_device_probe+0x60/0x80 [<c02d5c2a>] driver_probe_device+0x9a/0x2e0 [<c02d5ef9>] __driver_attach+0x89/0x90 [<c02d541b>] bus_for_each_dev+0x4b/0x70 [<c026c690>] ? pci_device_remove+0x0/0x40 [<c02d59d9>] driver_attach+0x19/0x20 [<c02d5e70>] ? __driver_attach+0x0/0x90 [<c02d4cef>] bus_add_driver+0x1cf/0x2a0 [<c026c690>] ? pci_device_remove+0x0/0x40 [<c02d60c9>] driver_register+0x69/0x140 [<c026c9b0>] __pci_register_driver+0x40/0x80 [<e0ecc000>] ? rt61pci_init+0x0/0x19 [rt61pci] [<e0ecc017>] rt61pci_init+0x17/0x19 [rt61pci] [<c0101116>] do_one_initcall+0x26/0x1c0 [<c01ab90c>] ? slab_pad_check+0x3c/0x120 [<c01ab90c>] ? slab_pad_check+0x3c/0x120 [<c01ac8da>] ? check_object+0xda/0x210 [<c01b0026>] ? percpu_free+0x46/0x50 [<c01ad09e>] ? __slab_free+0x22e/0x2f0 [<c01b0026>] ? percpu_free+0x46/0x50 [<c01b0026>] ? percpu_free+0x46/0x50 [<c01b0026>] ? percpu_free+0x46/0x50 [<c01687ec>] ? stop_machine_destroy+0x3c/0x40 [<c015e515>] ? load_module+0xa5/0x1c50 [<e0ec5000>] ? rt61pci_eepromregister_read+0x0/0x40 [rt61pci] [<e0eb2000>] ? rt2x00pci_write_tx_data+0x0/0x90 [rt2x00pci] [<c03ac2fb>] ? mutex_lock+0xb/0x20 [<c03ac2fb>] ? mutex_lock+0xb/0x20 [<c017ad16>] ? tracepoint_update_probe_range+0x76/0xa0 [<c017ad6f>] ? tracepoint_module_notify+0x2f/0x40 [<c03b02ed>] ? notifier_call_chain+0x2d/0x70 [<c014f0ed>] ? __blocking_notifier_call_chain+0x4d/0x60 [<c014f11a>] ? blocking_notifier_call_chain+0x1a/0x20 [<c0160156>] sys_init_module+0x96/0x1d0 [<c019dad6>] ? sys_munmap+0x46/0x60 [<c0105546>] syscall_call+0x7/0xb FIX kmalloc-128: Object at 0xdd59f6e0 not freed rt61pci 0000:00:07.0: PCI INT A disabled rt61pci: probe of 0000:00:07.0 failed with error -2 Signed-off-by: Herton Ronaldo Krzesinski <herton@mandriva.com.br> Acked-by: Ivo van Doorn <IvDoorn@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

Wext makes no assumptions about the contents of data->txpower.fixed and data->txpower.value when data->txpower.disabled is set, so do not update the user-requested power level while disabling. Also, when wext configures a really _fixed_ power output [1], we should reject it instead of limiting it to the regulatory constraint. If the user wants to set a _limit_ [2] then we should honour that.

2009-04-16b43: Poison RX buffersMichael Buesch
This patch adds poisoning and sanity checking to the RX DMA buffers. This is used for protection against buggy hardware/firmware that raises RX interrupts without doing an actual DMA transfer. This mechanism protects against rare "bad packets" (due to uninitialized skb data) and rare kernel crashes due to uninitialized RX headers. The poison is selected to not match on valid frames and to be cheap for checking. The poison check mechanism _might_ trigger incorrectly, if we are voluntarily receiving frames with bad PLCP headers. However, this is nonfatal, because the chance of such a match is basically zero and in case it happens it just results in dropping the packet. Bad-PLCP RX defaults to off, and you should leave it off unless you want to listen to the latest news broadcasted by your microwave oven. This patch also moves the initialization of the RX-header "length" field in front of the mapping of the DMA buffer. The CPU should not touch the buffer after we mapped it.

2009-04-16mac80211: Fix bug in getting rx status for frames pending in reorder bufferVasanthakumar Thiagarajan
Currently rx status for frames which are completed from reorder buffer is taken from it's cb area which is not always right, cb is not holding the rx status when driver uses mac80211's non-irq rx handler to pass it's received frames. This results in dropping almost all frames from reorder buffer when security is enabled by doing double decryption (first in hw, second in sw because of wrong rx status). This patch copies rx status into cb area before the frame is put into reorder buffer. After this patch, there is a significant improvement in throughput with ath9k + WPA2(AES).
