2010-03-08qlcnic: fix multicast handlingSucheta Chakraborty
For promiscuous mode, driver send request to device for deleting multicast addresses and again it send request for adding them back while exiting from this mode, this is bad for performance. Just setting device in promiscuous mode is enough, no need to del/add multicast addresses.

2010-03-05net: add limit for socket backlogZhu Yi
We got system OOM while running some UDP netperf testing on the loopback device. The case is multiple senders sent stream UDP packets to a single receiver via loopback on local host. Of course, the receiver is not able to handle all the packets in time. But we surprisingly found that these packets were not discarded due to the receiver's sk->sk_rcvbuf limit. Instead, they are kept queuing to sk->sk_backlog and finally ate up all the memory. We believe this is a secure hole that a none privileged user can crash the system. The root cause for this problem is, when the receiver is doing __release_sock() (i.e. after userspace recv, kernel udp_recvmsg -> skb_free_datagram_locked -> release_sock), it moves skbs from backlog to sk_receive_queue with the softirq enabled. In the above case, multiple busy senders will almost make it an endless loop. The skbs in the backlog end up eat all the system memory. The issue is not only for UDP. Any protocols using socket backlog is potentially affected. The patch adds limit for socket backlog so that the backlog size cannot be expanded endlessly.

2010-03-04gianfar: Fix TX ring processing on SMP machinesAnton Vorontsov
Starting with commit a3bc1f11e9b867a4f49505 ("gianfar: Revive SKB recycling") gianfar driver sooner or later stops transmitting any packets on SMP machines. start_xmit() prepares new skb for transmitting, generally it does three things: 1. sets up all BDs (marks them ready to send), except the first one. 2. stores skb into tx_queue->tx_skbuff so that clean_tx_ring() would cleanup it later. 3. sets up the first BD, i.e. marks it ready. Here is what clean_tx_ring() does: 1. reads skbs from tx_queue->tx_skbuff 2. checks if the *last* BD is ready. If it's still ready [to send] then it it isn't transmitted, so clean_tx_ring() returns. Otherwise it actually cleanups BDs. All is OK. Now, if there is just one BD, code flow: - start_xmit(): stores skb into tx_skbuff. Note that the first BD (which is also the last one) isn't marked as ready, yet. - clean_tx_ring(): sees that skb is not null, *and* its lstatus says that it is NOT ready (like if BD was sent), so it cleans it up (bad!) - start_xmit(): marks BD as ready [to send], but it's too late. We can fix this simply by reordering lstatus/tx_skbuff writes.

There is nothing stopping a client from trying to send such a message however, and if that happens, we attempt to dereference tipc_net.zones while the pointer is still NULL, and explode. The fix is pretty straightforward. Since these oopses all arise from the dereference of global pointers prior to their assignment to allocated values, and since these allocations are small (about 2k total), lets convert these pointers to static arrays of the appropriate size. All the accesses to these bits consider 0/NULL to be a non match when searching, so all the lookups still work properly, and there is no longer a chance of a bad dererence anywhere. As a bonus, this lets us eliminate the setup/teardown routines for those pointers, and elimnates the need to preform any locking around them to prevent access while their being allocated/freed. I've updated the tipc_net structure to behave this way to fix the exact reported problem, and also fixed up the tipc_bearers and media_list arrays to fix an obvious simmilar problem that arises from issuing tipc-config commands to manipulate bearers/links prior to entering networked mode I've tested this for a few hours by running the sanity tests and stress test with the tipcutils suite, and nothing has fallen over. There have been a few lockdep warnings, but those were there before, and can be addressed later, as they didn't actually result in any deadlock.

2010-03-04gre: fix hard header destination address checkingTimo Teräs
ipgre_header() can be called with zero daddr when the gre device is configured as multipoint tunnel and still has the NOARP flag set (which is typically cleared by the userspace arp daemon). If the NOARP packets are not dropped, ipgre_tunnel_xmit() will take rt->rt_gateway (= NBMA IP) and use that for route look up (and may lead to bogus xfrm acquires). The multicast address check is removed as sending to multicast group should be ok. In fact, if gre device has a multicast address as destination ipgre_header is always called with multicast address.

2010-03-04IPv6: addrconf notify when address is unavailablestephen hemminger
My recent change in net-next to retain permanent addresses caused regression. Device refcount would not go to zero when device was unregistered because left over anycast reference would hold ipv6 dev reference which would hold device references... The correct procedure is to call notify chain when address is no longer available for use. When interface comes back DAD timer will notify back that address is available. Also, link local addresses should be purged when interface is brought down. The address might be changed. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@vyatta.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2010-03-04IPv6: addrconf timer racestephen hemminger
The Router Solicitation timer races with device state changes because it doesn't lock the device. Use local variable to avoid one repeated dereference. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@vyatta.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2010-03-04IPv6: addrconf dad timer unnecessary bh_disablestephen hemminger
Timer code runs in bottom half, so there is no need for using _bh form of locking. Also check if device is not ready to avoid race with address that is no longer active. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@vyatta.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2010-03-03mac80211: Fix HT rate control configurationSujith
Handling HT configuration changes involved setting the channel with the new HT parameters and then issuing a rate_update() notification to the driver. This behavior changed after the off-channel changes. Now, the channel is not updated with the new HT params in enable_ht() - instead, it is now done when the scan work terminates. This results in the driver depending on stale information, defaulting to non-HT mode always. Fix this by passing the new channel type to the driver.
