My patch "mac80211: correctly place aMPDU RX reorder code" uses an skb queue for MPDUs that were released from the buffer. I intentially didn't initialise and use the skb queue's spinlock, but in this place forgot that the code variant that doesn't touch the spinlock is needed.

2009-12-04mac80211: Fix TX status reporting for injected data framesJouni Malinen
An earlier optimization on removing unnecessary traffic on cooked monitor interfaces ("mac80211: reduce the amount of unnecessary traffic on cooked monitor interfaces ") ended up removing quite a bit more than just unnecessary traffic. It was not supposed to remove TX status reporting for injected frames, but ended up doing it by checking the injected flag in skb->cb only after that field had been cleared with memset.. Fix this by taking a local copy of the injected flag before skb->cb is cleared. This broke user space applications that depend on getting TX status notifications for injected data frames. For example, STA inactivity poll from hostapd did not work and ended up kicking out stations even if they were still present. Signed-off-by: Jouni Malinen <j@w1.fi> Signed-off-by: John W.

2009-12-04WE: Fix set events not propagatedJean Tourrilhes
I've just noticed that some events are no longer propagated for some wireless drivers. Basically, SET request with a extra payload for driver without commit handler. The fix is pretty simple, see attached. Actually, a few lines below this line, you will see that the event generation for simple SET (iwpoint-less ?) is done properly, and this other event generation does not need fixing.

2009-12-03tcp: fix a timewait refcnt raceEric Dumazet
After TCP RCU conversion, tw->tw_refcnt should not be set to 1 in inet_twsk_alloc(). It allows a RCU reader to get this timewait socket, while we not yet stabilized it. Only choice we have is to set tw_refcnt to 0 in inet_twsk_alloc(), then atomic_add() it later, once everything is done. Location of this atomic_add() is tricky, because we dont want another writer to find this timewait in ehash, while tw_refcnt is still zero ! Thanks to Kapil Dakhane tests and reports.

2009-12-03tcp: connect() race with timewait reuseEric Dumazet
Its currently possible that several threads issuing a connect() find the same timewait socket and try to reuse it, leading to list corruptions. Condition for bug is that these threads bound their socket on same address/port of to-be-find timewait socket, and connected to same target. (SO_REUSEADDR needed) To fix this problem, we could unhash timewait socket while holding ehash lock, to make sure lookups/changes will be serialized. Only first thread finds the timewait socket, other ones find the established socket and return an EADDRNOTAVAIL error. This second version takes into account Evgeniy's review and makes sure inet_twsk_put() is called outside of locked sections.

2009-12-03net: Batch inet_twsk_purgeEric W. Biederman
This function walks the whole hashtable so there is no point in passing it a network namespace. Instead I purge all timewait sockets from dead network namespaces that I find. If the namespace is one of the once I am trying to purge I am guaranteed no new timewait sockets can be formed so this will get them all. If the namespace is one I am not acting for it might form a few more but I will call inet_twsk_purge again and shortly to get rid of them. In any even if the network namespace is dead timewait sockets are useless. Move the calls of inet_twsk_purge into batch_exit routines so that if I am killing a bunch of namespaces at once I will just call inet_twsk_purge once and save a lot of redundant unnecessary work. My simple 4k network namespace exit test the cleanup time dropped from roughly 8.2s to 1.6s. While the time spent running inet_twsk_purge fell to about 2ms. 1ms for ipv4 and 1ms for ipv6.

2009-12-03net: Use rcu lookups in inet_twsk_purge.Eric W. Biederman
While we are looking up entries to free there is no reason to take the lock in inet_twsk_purge. We have to drop locks and restart occassionally anyway so adding a few more in case we get on the wrong list because of a timewait move is no big deal. At the same time not taking the lock for long periods of time is much more polite to the rest of the users of the hash table. In my test configuration of killing 4k network namespaces this change causes 4k back to back runs of inet_twsk_purge on an empty hash table to go from roughly 20.7s to 3.3s, and the total time to destroy 4k network namespaces goes from roughly 44s to 3.3s.

This is required for network namespace support so 2 out of the 3 callers already do this, it allows the error handling to be made common, and it allows fib_rules_unregister to free the template for hte caller.

2009-12-03Bluetooth: Fix 'SendRRorRNR' to send the ReqSeq valueGustavo F. Padovan
SendRRorRNR needs to acknowledge received I-frames (actually every packet needs to acknowledge received I-frames by sending the proper packet sequence number), so ReqSeq is set to the next I-frame number sequence to be pulled by the reassembly function. SendRRorRNR tells the remote side about local busy conditions, it sends a Receiver Ready frame if local busy is false or a Receiver Not Ready if local busy is true. ReqSeq is the packet's field to send the number of the acknowledged packets. Signed-off-by: Gustavo F. Padovan <gustavo@las.ic.unicamp.br> Signed-off-by: Marcel Holtmann <marcel@holtmann.org>
2009-12-03Bluetooth: Implement RejActioned flagGustavo F. Padovan
RejActioned is used to prevent retransmission when a entity is on the WAIT_F state, i.e., waiting for a frame with F-bit set due local busy condition or a expired retransmission timer. (When these two events raise they send a frame with the Poll bit set and enters in the WAIT_F state to wait for a frame with the Final bit set.) The local entity doesn't send I-frames(the data frames) until the receipt of a frame with F-bit set. When that happens it also set RejActioned to false. RejActioned is a mandatory feature of ERTM spec. Signed-off-by: Gustavo F. Padovan <gustavo@las.ic.unicamp.br> Signed-off-by: Marcel Holtmann <marcel@holtmann.org>
2009-12-03Bluetooth: Fix sending ReqSeq on I-framesGustavo F. Padovan
As specified by ERTM spec an ERTM channel can acknowledge received I-frames(the data frames) by sending an I-frame with the proper ReqSeq value (i.e. ReqSeq is set to BufferSeq). Until now we aren't setting the ReqSeq value on I-frame control bits. That way we can save sending S-frames(Supervise frames) only to acknowledge receipt of I-frames. It is very helpful to the full-duplex channel. ReqSeq is the packet sequence number sent in an acknowledgement frame to acknowledge receipt of frames up to (ReqSeq - 1). BufferSeq controls the receiver buffer, it is used to delay acknowledgement of new frames to not cause buffer overflow. BufferSeq value is not increased until frames are pulled by reassembly function. Signed-off-by: Gustavo F. Padovan <gustavo@las.ic.unicamp.br> Signed-off-by: Marcel Holtmann <marcel@holtmann.org>
2009-12-03Bluetooth: Fix unset of SrejActioned flagGustavo F. Padovan
SrejActioned is a flag that when set prevents local side to retransmit a I-frame(the data frame) already retransmitted. The local entity can retransmit again only when it receives a SREJ frame with the F-bit set. SREJ frame - Selective Reject frame - is sent when an entity wants the retransmission of a specific I-frame that was lost or corrupted. This bug can put ERTM in an unknown state once the entity can't retransmit. A frame with the Final bit set is expected when the local side sends a frame with the Poll bit set due to a local busy condition or a retransmission timer expired. (Receipt of P-bit shall always be replied by a frame with the F-bit set). pi->conn_state keeps informations about many ERTM flags including SrejActioned. Signed-off-by: Gustavo F.

Take advantage of the fact that an explicit rtnl_kill_links is unnecessary (and skipping it improves batching), as network namespace exit calls dellink on all remaining virtual devices, and rtnl_link_unregister calls dellink on all outstanding devices in that network namespace.

This is more flexible and less subject to user configuration error. Such a cookie option has been suggested for many years, and is also useful without SYN data, allowing several related concepts to use the same extension option.

2009-12-02TCPCT part 1c: sysctl_tcp_cookie_size, socket option TCP_COOKIE_TRANSACTIONSWilliam Allen Simpson
Define sysctl (tcp_cookie_size) to turn on and off the cookie option default globally, instead of a compiled configuration option. Define per socket option (TCP_COOKIE_TRANSACTIONS) for setting constant data values, retrieving variable cookie values, and other facilities. Move inline tcp_clear_options() unchanged from net/tcp.h to linux/tcp.h, near its corresponding struct tcp_options_received (prior to changes). This is a straightforward re-implementation of an earlier (year-old) patch that no longer applies cleanly, with permission of the original author (Adam Langley): http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.network/102586 These functions will also be used in subsequent patches that implement additional features.

2009-12-02TCPCT part 1b: generate Responder Cookie secretWilliam Allen Simpson
Define (missing) hash message size for SHA1. Define hashing size constants specific to TCP cookies. Add new function: tcp_cookie_generator(). Maintain global secret values for tcp_cookie_generator(). This is a significantly revised implementation of earlier (15-year-old) Photuris [RFC-2522] code for the KA9Q cooperative multitasking platform. Linux RCU technique appears to be well-suited to this application, though neither of the circular queue items are freed. These functions will also be used in subsequent patches that implement additional features.

2009-12-02TCPCT part 1a: add request_values parameter for sending SYNACKWilliam Allen Simpson
Add optional function parameters associated with sending SYNACK. These parameters are not needed after sending SYNACK, and are not used for retransmission. Avoids extending struct tcp_request_sock, and avoids allocating kernel memory. Also affects DCCP as it uses common struct request_sock_ops, but this parameter is currently reserved for future use.

2009-12-02skbuff: remove skb_dma_map/unmapAlexander Duyck
The two functions skb_dma_map/unmap are unsafe to use as they cause problems when packets are cloned and sent to multiple devices while a HW IOMMU is enabled. Due to this it is best to remove the code so it is not used by any other network driver maintainters.
