2009-02-12Documentation/connector/cn_test.c: don't use gfp_any()Andrew Morton
cn_test_timer_func() is a timer handler and can never use GFP_KERNEL - there's no point in using gfp_any() here. Also, use setup_timer(). Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2009-02-12net: don't use in_atomic() in gfp_any()Andrew Morton
The problem is that in_atomic() will return false inside spinlocks if CONFIG_PREEMPT=n. This will lead to deadlockable GFP_KERNEL allocations from spinlocked regions. Secondly, if CONFIG_PREEMPT=y, this bug solves itself because networking will instead use GFP_ATOMIC from this callsite. Hence we won't get the might_sleep() debugging warnings which would have informed us of the buggy callsites. Solve both these problems by switching to in_interrupt(). Now, if someone runs a gfp_any() allocation from inside spinlock we will get the warning if CONFIG_PREEMPT=y. I reviewed all callsites and most of them were too complex for my little brain and none of them documented their interface requirements. I have no idea what this patch will do.

2009-02-11iwlwifi: fix suspend/resume and its usage of pci saved stateReinette Chatre
Here we do two things: First, revert "iwlwifi: save PCI state before suspend, restore after resume". That misguided patch led to being unable to use iwlwifi devices after resume. Next, indicate to PCI driver that the saved PCI state is valid during suspend. We restore PCI state and enable the device when network interface is created, similarly PCI state is saved and the device is disabled when network interface is removed. Thus, when .suspend is called the PCI state is saved and device is disabled. This is the case even if an interface is never created as PCI state is saved and device disabled during .probe. PCI driver assumes PCI state is saved in .suspend. Saving the state at this time will save state of disabled device and thus cause problems during resume (resuming a disabled device). We thus indicate directly to PCI driver that current PCI saved state is valid.

2009-02-10sunhme: Fix Quattro HME irq registration on proble failuresMeelis Roos
Currently, the sunhme driver installs SBus Quattro interrupt handler when at least one HME card was initialized correctly and at least one Quattro card is present. This breaks when a Quattro card fails initialization for whatever reason - IRQ is registered and OOPS happens when it fires. The solution, as suggested by David Miller, was to keep track which cards of the Quattro bundles have been initialized, and request/free the Quattro IRQ only when all four devices have been successfully initialized. The patch only touches SBus initialization - PCI init already resets the card pointer to NULL on init failure. The patch has been tested on Sun E3500 with SBus and PCI single HME cards and one PCI Quattro HME card in a situation where any PCI card failed init when the SBus routines tried to init them by mistake. Additionally it replaces Quattro request_irq panic with error return - if this card fails to work, at least let the others work. Tested on E450 with PCI HME and PCI Quad HME.

2009-02-08tun: Fix unicast filter overflowAlex Williamson
Tap devices can make use of a small MAC filter set via the TUNSETTXFILTER ioctl. The filter has a set of exact matches plus a hash for imperfect filtering of additional multicast addresses. The current code is unbalanced, adding unicast addresses to the multicast hash, but only checking the hash against multicast addresses. This results in the filter dropping unicast addresses that overflow the exact filter. The fix is simply to disable the filter by leaving count set to zero if we find non-multicast addresses after the exact match table is filled.

2009-02-063c509: Fix resume from hibernation for PnP mode.Ondrej Zary
From: Ondrej Zary <linux@rainbow-software.org> last year, I posted a patch which fixed hibernation on 3c509 cards. That was back in 2.6.24. It worked fine in 2.6.25. But then I stopped using hibernation (as it did not work with my new IT8212 RAID controller). Now I fixed it and noticed that 3c509 does not wake up properly anymore (in 2.6.28) - neither in PnP nor in ISA modes. ifconfig down/up makes the card work again in PnP mode. However, in ISA mode, ifconfig up ends with "No such device" error. Comparing the 3c509 driver between 2.6.25 and 2.6.28, there's only some statistics-related change. So the cause of the problem must be somewhere else. This patch makes the resume work in PnP mode, but it's still not enough for ISA mode. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2009-02-06sungem: Soft lockup in sungem on Netra AC200 when switching interface upIlkka Virta
From: Ilkka Virta <itvirta@iki.fi> In the lockup situation the driver seems to go off in an eternal storm of interrupts right after calling request_irq(). It doesn't actually do anything interesting in the interrupt handler. Since connecting the link afterwards works, something later in initialization must fix this. Looking at gem_do_start() and gem_open(), it seems that the only thing done while opening the device after the request_irq(), is a call to napi_enable(). I don't know what the ordering requirements are for the initialization, but I boldly tried to move the napi_enable() call inside gem_do_start() before the link state is checked and interrupts subsequently enabled, and it seems to work for me. Doesn't even break anything too obvious... Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2009-02-06r8169: Don't update statistics counters when interface is downIvan Vecera
Some Realtek chips (RTL8169sb/8110sb in my case) are unable to retrieve ethtool statistics when the interface is down. The process stays in endless loop in rtl8169_get_ethtool_stats. This is because these chips need to have receiver enabled (CmdRxEnb bit in ChipCmd register) that is cleared when the interface is going down. It's better to update statistics only when the interface is up and otherwise return copy of statistics grabbed when the interface was up (in rtl8169_close). It is interesting that PCI-E NICs (like 8168b/8111b...) are not affected. Signed-off-by: Ivan Vecera <ivecera@redhat.com> Acked-by: Francois Romieu <romieu@fr.zoreil.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2009-02-06udp: Fix potential wrong ip_hdr(skb) pointersJesper Dangaard Brouer
Like the UDP header fix, pskb_may_pull() can potentially alter the SKB buffer. Thus the saddr and daddr, pointers may point to the old skb->data buffer. I haven't seen corruptions, as its only seen if the old skb->data buffer were reallocated by another user and written into very quickly (or poison'd by SLAB debugging).

2009-02-06neigh: some entries can be skipped during dumpingGautam Kachroo
neightbl_dump_info and neigh_dump_table can skip entries if the *fill*info functions return an error. This results in an incomplete dump ((invoked by netlink requests for RTM_GETNEIGHTBL or RTM_GETNEIGH) nidx and idx should not be incremented if the current entry was not placed in the output buffer Signed-off-by: Gautam Kachroo <gk@aristanetworks.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2009-02-05ipv6: Copy cork options in ip6_append_dataHerbert Xu
As the options passed to ip6_append_data may be ephemeral, we need to duplicate it for corking. This patch applies the simplest fix which is to memdup all the relevant bits. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
