2007-04-25[WIRELESS] cfg80211: New wireless config infrastructure.Johannes Berg
This patch creates the core cfg80211 code along with some sysfs bits. This is a stripped down version to allow mac80211 to function, but doesn't include any configuration yet except for creating and removing virtual interfaces. This patch includes the nl80211 header file but it only contains the interface types which the cfg80211 interface for creating virtual interfaces relies on.

This is an implementation of TCP Illinois invented by Shao Liu at University of Illinois. It is a another variant of Reno which adapts the alpha and beta parameters based on RTT.

2007-04-25[PPPOE]: Fix device tear-down notification.Michal Ostrowski
pppoe_flush_dev() kicks all sockets bound to a device that is going down. In doing so, locks must be taken in the right order consistently (sock lock, followed by the pppoe_hash_lock). However, the scan process is based on us holding the sock lock. So, when something is found in the scan we must release the lock we're holding and grab the sock lock. This patch fixes race conditions between this code and pppoe_release(), both of which perform similar functions but would naturally prefer to grab locks in opposing orders. Both code paths are now going after these locks in a consistent manner. pppoe_hash_lock protects the contents of the "pppox_sock" objects that reside inside the hash. Thus, NULL'ing out the pppoe_dev field should be done under the protection of this lock. Signed-off-by: Michal Ostrowski <mostrows@earthlink.net> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2007-04-25[PPPOE]: memory leak when socket is release()d before PPPIOCGCHAN has been ↵Florian Zumbiehl
called on it below you find a patch that fixes a memory leak when a PPPoE socket is release()d after it has been connect()ed, but before the PPPIOCGCHAN ioctl ever has been called on it. This is somewhat of a security problem, too, since PPPoE sockets can be created by any user, so any user can easily allocate all the machine's RAM to non-swappable address space and thus DoS the system. Is there any specific reason for PPPoE sockets being available to any unprivileged process, BTW? After all, you need a packet socket for the discovery stage anyway, so it's unlikely that any unprivileged process will ever need to create a PPPoE socket, no? Allocating all session IDs for a known AC is a kind of DoS, too, after all - with Juniper ERXes, this is really easy, actually, since they don't ever assign session ids above 8000 ...

2007-04-25[PPPOE]: race between interface going down and connect()Florian Zumbiehl
below you find a patch that (hopefully) fixes a race between an interface going down and a connect() to a peer on that interface. Before, connect() would determine that an interface is up, then the interface could go down and all entries referring to that interface in the item_hash_table would be marked as ZOMBIEs and their references to the device would be freed, and after that, connect() would put a new entry into the hash table referring to the device that meanwhile is down already - which also would cause unregister_netdevice() to wait until the socket has been release()d. This patch does not suffice if we are not allowed to accept connect()s referring to a device that we already acked a NETDEV_GOING_DOWN for (that is: all references are only guaranteed to be freed after NETDEV_DOWN has been acknowledged, not necessarily after the NETDEV_GOING_DOWN already). And if we are allowed to, we could avoid looking through the hash table upon NETDEV_GOING_DOWN completely and only do that once we get the NETDEV_DOWN ... mostrows: pppoe_flush_dev is called on NETDEV_GOING_DOWN and NETDEV_DOWN to deal with this "late connect" issue. Ideally one would hope to notify users at the "NETDEV_GOING_DOWN" phase (just to pretend to be nice). However, it is the NETDEV_DOWN scan that takes all the responsibility for ensuring nobody is hanging around at that time.

2007-04-25[NET_SCHED]: ingress: switch back to using ingress_lockPatrick McHardy
Switch ingress queueing back to use ingress_lock. qdisc_lock_tree now locks both the ingress and egress qdiscs on the device.

2007-04-25[DCCP]: Fix bug in the calculation of very low sending ratesGerrit Renker
This fixes an error in the calculation of t_ipi when X converges towards very low sending rates (between 1 and 64 bytes per second). Although this case may not sound likely, it can be reproduced by connecting, hitting enter (1 byte sent) and waiting for some time, during which the nofeedback timer halves the sending rate until finally it reaches the region 1..64 bytes/sec. Computing X is handled correctly (tested separately); but by dividing X _before_ entering the calculation of t_ipi, X becomes zero as a result. This in turn triggers a BUG condition caught in scaled_div(). Fixed by replacing with equivalent statement and explicit typecast for good measure. Calculation verified and effect of patch tested - reduced never below 1 byte per 64 seconds afterwards, i.e. not allowing divide-by-zero.
