My router blew up earlier, but exhibited some interesting behaviour during
its dying moments. It was broadcasting beacons but wouldn't respond to
any authentication requests.
I noticed that softmac wasn't playing nice with this, as I couldn't make it try
to connect to other networks after it had timed out authenticating to my ill
router.
To resolve this, I modified the softmac event/notify API to pass the event
code to the callback, so that callbacks being notified from
IEEE80211SOFTMAC_EVENT_ANY masks can make some judgement. In this case, the
ieee80211softmac_assoc callback needs to make a decision based upon whether
the association passed or failed.

This patch finishes of the partially-complete shared key authentication
implementation in softmac.
The complication here is that we need to encrypt a management frame during
the authentication process. I don't think there are any other scenarios where
this would have to happen.
To get around this without causing too many headaches, we decided to just use
software encryption for this frame. The softmac config option now selects
IEEE80211_CRYPT_WEP so that we can ensure this available. This also involved
a modification to some otherwise unused ieee80211 API.

[SPARC64]: Fix D-cache corruption in mremap

|
|
Patch from Lennert Buytenhek
On the ixp23xx, the microengine thread interrupt sources are numbered
56..119, but their mask/status bits are located in bit positions 64..127
in the various registers in the interrupt controller (bit positions
56..63 are unused.)
We don't deal with this, so currently, when asked to enable IRQ 64, we
will enable IRQ 56 instead.
The only interrupts >= 64 are the thread interrupt sources, and there
are no in-tree users of those yet, so this is fortunately not a big
problem, but this needs fixing anyway.

Patch from Lennert Buytenhek
The current __ixp23xx_arch_is_coherent() check assumes that the
lower byte of IXP23XX_PRODUCT_ID is identical to the lower byte of
processor_id, but this is not the case, and because of this we were
incorrectly enabling coherency on A1 stepping CPUs.
Stepping A1 of the ixp2350, which has a PRODUCT_ID of 0x401, has '02'
in the lower byte of processor_id, while A2, with a PRODUCT_ID of
0x402, has '04' in the lower byte of processor_id.
So, to check for >= A2, we really need to check the lower byte of
processor_id against >= 4.

mm/slab.c's offlab_limit logic is totally broken.
Firstly, "offslab_limit" is a global variable while it should either be
calculated in situ or should be passed in as a parameter.
Secondly, the more serious problem with it is that the condition for
calculating it:
if (!(OFF_SLAB(sizes->cs_cachep))) {
offslab_limit = sizes->cs_size - sizeof(struct slab);
offslab_limit /= sizeof(kmem_bufctl_t);
is in total disconnect with the condition that makes use of it:
/* More than offslab_limit objects will cause problems */
if ((flags & CFLGS_OFF_SLAB) && num > offslab_limit)
break;
but due to offslab_limit being a global variable this breakage was
hidden.
Up until lockdep came along and perturbed the slab sizes sufficiently so
that the first off-slab cache would still see a (non-calculated) zero
value for offslab_limit and would panic with:
kmem_cache_create: couldn't create cache size-512.
Call Trace:
[<ffffffff8020a5b9>] show_trace+0x96/0x1c8
[<ffffffff8020a8f0>] dump_stack+0x13/0x15

Kernel panic - not syncing: kmem_cache_create(): failed to create slab `size-512'
Paolo Ornati's config on x86_64 managed to trigger it.
The fix is to move the calculation to the place that makes use of it.
This also makes slab.o 54 bytes smaller.
Btw., the check itself is quite silly. Its intention is to test whether
the number of objects per slab would be higher than the number of slab
control pointers possible. In theory it could be triggered: if someone
tried to allocate 4-byte objects cache and explicitly requested with
CFLGS_OFF_SLAB. So i kept the check.
Out of historic interest i checked how old this bug was and it's
ancient, 10 years old! It is the oldest hidden and then truly triggering
bugs i ever saw being fixed in the kernel!

If we move a mapping from one virtual address to another,
and this changes the virtual color of the mapping to those
pages, we can see corrupt data due to D-cache aliasing.
Check for and deal with this by overriding the move_pte()
macro. Set things up so that other platforms can cleanly
override the move_pte() macro too.

A proper fix would involve introducing the notion of shared caches but
at this stage of 2.6.17 that's going to be too intrusive and not needed
for current hardware; aside I think some discussion will be needed.
So for now on the affected SMP configurations which happen to suffer from
cache aliases we make use of the fact that a single cache will be shared
by all processors. This solves the deadlock issue and will improve
performance by getting rid of the smp_call_function overhead.

In case of CONFIG_64BIT_PHYS_ADDR, set_pte() and pte_clear() functions
only set _PAGE_GLOBAL bit in the pte_low field of the buddy PTEs,
forgetting to propagate ito to pte_high. Thus, the both pages might not
really be made global for the CPU (since it AND's the G-bit of the
odd / even PTEs together to decide whether they're global or not). Thus,
if only a single page is allocated via vmalloc() or ioremap(), it's not
really global for CPU (and it must be, since this is kernel mapping),
and thus its ASID is compared against the current process' one -- so,
we'll get into trouble sooner or later... Also, pte_none() will fail
on global pages because _PAGE_GLOBAL bit is set in both pte_low and
pte_high, and pte_val() will return u64 value consisting of those fields
concateneted.

From: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
If an error is reported by a drive in a RAID array (which is done via
bi_end_io - in interrupt context), we call md_error and md_new_event which
calls sysfs_notify. However sysfs_notify grabs a mutex and so cannot be
called in interrupt context.
This patch just creates a variant of md_new_event which avoids the sysfs
call, and uses that. A better fix for later is to arrange for the event to
be called from user-context.
Note: avoiding the sysfs call isn't a problem as an error will not, by
itself, modify the sync_action attribute. (We do still need to
wake_up(&md_event_waiters) as an error by itself will modify /proc/mdstat).
