2012-03-16wimax/i2400m: fix erroneous NETDEV_TX_BUSY useEric Dumazet
A driver start_xmit() method cannot free skb and return NETDEV_TX_BUSY, since caller is going to reuse freed skb. In fact netif_tx_stop_queue() / netif_stop_queue() is needed before returning NETDEV_TX_BUSY or you can trigger a ksoftirqd fatal loop. In case of memory allocation error, only safe way is to drop the packet and return NETDEV_TX_OK Also increments tx_dropped counter Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Cc: Inaky Perez-Gonzalez <inaky.perez-gonzalez@intel.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2012-03-16net/usbnet: reserve headroom on rx skbsEric Dumazet
network drivers should reserve some headroom on incoming skbs so that we dont need expensive reallocations, eg forwarding packets in tunnels.

2012-03-16bnx2x: fix memory leak in bnx2x_init_firmware()Michal Schmidt
When cycling the interface down and up, bnx2x_init_firmware() knows that the firmware is already loaded, but nevertheless it allocates certain arrays anew (init_data, init_ops, init_ops_offsets, iro_arr). The old arrays are leaked. Fix the leaks by returning early if the firmware was already loaded. Because if the firmware is loaded, so are the arrays.

2012-03-12tun: don't hold network namespace by tun socketsStanislav Kinsbursky
v3: added previously removed sock_put() to the tun_release() callback, because sk_release_kernel() doesn't drop the socket reference. v2: sk_release_kernel() used for socket release. Dummy tun_release() is required for sk_release_kernel() ---> sock_release() ---> sock->ops->release() call. TUN was designed to destroy it's socket on network namesapce shutdown. But this will never happen for persistent device, because it's socket holds network namespace. This patch removes of holding network namespace by TUN socket and replaces it by creating socket in init_net and then changing it's net it to desired one. On shutdown socket is moved back to init_net prior to final put. Signed-off-by: Stanislav Kinsbursky <skinsbursky@parallels.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2012-03-12rt2x00: fix random stallsStanislaw Gruszka
Is possible that we stop queue and then do not wake up it again, especially when packets are transmitted fast. That can be easily reproduced with modified tx queue entry_num to some small value e.g. 16. If mac80211 already hold local->queue_stop_reason_lock, then we can wait on that lock in both rt2x00queue_pause_queue() and rt2x00queue_unpause_queue(). After drooping ->queue_stop_reason_lock is possible that __ieee80211_wake_queue() will be performed before __ieee80211_stop_queue(), hence we stop queue and newer wake up it again. Another race condition is possible when between rt2x00queue_threshold() check and rt2x00queue_pause_queue() we will process all pending tx buffers on different cpu. This might happen if for example interrupt will be triggered on cpu performing rt2x00mac_tx(). To prevent race conditions serialize pause/unpause by queue->tx_lock.

2012-03-06r8169: runtime resume before shutdown.françois romieu
With runtime PM, if the ethernet cable is disconnected, the device is transitioned to D3 state to conserve energy. If the system is shutdown in this state, any register accesses in rtl_shutdown are dropped on the floor. As the device was programmed by .runtime_suspend() to wake on link changes, it is thus brought back up as soon as the link recovers. Resuming every suspended device through the driver core would slow things down and it is not clear how many devices really need it now. Original report and D0 transition patch by Sameer Nanda.

On Access Point mode, when transmitting a packet, if the destination station is in powersave mode, we abort transmitting the packet to the device queue, but we do not reclaim the allocated memory. Given enough packets, we can go in a state where there is no packet on the device queue, but we think the device has no memory left, so no packet gets transmitted, connections breaks and the AP stops working.

From Nikola Pajkovsky. 24) The conversion of the neighbour hash tables over to RCU added a race, fixed here by adding the necessary reread of tbl->nht, fix from Michel Machado. 25) When we added VF (virtual function) attributes for network device dumps, this potentially bloats up the size of the dump of one network device such that the dump size is too large for the buffer allocated by properly written netlink applications. In particular, if you add 255 VFs to a network device, parts of GLIBC stop working. To fix this, we add an attribute that is used to turn on these extended portions of the network device dump. Sophisticaed applications like 'ip' that want to see this stuff will be changed to set the attribute, whereas things like GLIBC that don't care about VFs simply will not, and therefore won't be busted by the mere presence of VFs on a network device.

2012-02-25sfc: Fix assignment of ip_summed for pre-allocated skbsBen Hutchings
When pre-allocating skbs for received packets, we set ip_summed = CHECKSUM_UNNCESSARY. We used to change it back to CHECKSUM_NONE when the received packet had an incorrect checksum or unhandled protocol. Commit bc8acf2c8c3e43fcc192762a9f964b3e9a17748b ('drivers/net: avoid some skb->ip_summed initializations') mistakenly replaced the latter assignment with a DEBUG-only assertion that ip_summed == CHECKSUM_NONE. This assertion is always false, but it seems no-one has exercised this code path in a DEBUG build. Fix this by moving our assignment of CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY into efx_rx_packet_gro().

2012-02-24ppp: fix 'ppp_mp_reconstruct bad seq' errorsBen McKeegan
This patch fixes a (mostly cosmetic) bug introduced by the patch 'ppp: Use SKB queue abstraction interfaces in fragment processing' found here: http://www.spinics.net/lists/netdev/msg153312.html The above patch rewrote and moved the code responsible for cleaning up discarded fragments but the new code does not catch every case where this is necessary. This results in some discarded fragments remaining in the queue, and triggering a 'bad seq' error on the subsequent call to ppp_mp_reconstruct. Fragments are discarded whenever other fragments of the same frame have been lost. This can generate a lot of unwanted and misleading log messages. This patch also adds additional detail to the debug logging to make it clearer which fragments were lost and which other fragments were discarded as a result of losses. (Run pppd with 'kdebug 1' option to enable debug logging.) Signed-off-by: Ben McKeegan <ben@netservers.co.uk> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2012-02-24davinci_emac: Do not free all rx dma descriptors during initChristian Riesch
This patch fixes a regression that was introduced by commit 0a5f38467765ee15478db90d81e40c269c8dda20 davinci_emac: Add Carrier Link OK check in Davinci RX Handler Said commit adds a check whether the carrier link is ok. If the link is not ok, the skb is freed and no new dma descriptor added to the rx dma channel. This causes trouble during initialization when the carrier status has not yet been updated. If a lot of packets are received while netif_carrier_ok returns false, all dma descriptors are freed and the rx dma transfer is stopped. The bug occurs when the board is connected to a network with lots of traffic and the ifconfig down/up is done, e.g., when reconfiguring the interface with DHCP. The bug can be reproduced by flood pinging the davinci board while doing ifconfig eth0 down ifconfig eth0 up on the board. After that, the rx path stops working and the overrun value reported by ifconfig is counting up. This patch reverts commit 0a5f38467765ee15478db90d81e40c269c8dda20 and instead issues warnings only if cpdma_chan_submit returns -ENOMEM.

2012-02-23phy: IC+101G and PHY_HAS_INTERRUPT flagGiuseppe CAVALLARO
This patch adds the PHY_HAS_INTERRUPT flag for IC+101 device series. Also the patch does a simple dity-up to signal that the driver actually is for IP101A LF and IP101G devices. In fact, these are two similar PHYs that have the same IDs and mainly differ for the EEE capability supported in the G series.

2012-02-23netdev/phy/icplus: Correct broken phy_init codeDavid McKay
The code for ip1001_config_init() was totally broken if you were not using RGMII. Instead of returning an error code or zero it actually returned the value in the IP1001_SPEC_CTRL_STATUS_2 register. It was also trying to set the IP1001_APS_ON bit , but never actually wrote back the register. The error checking was also incorrect in both this function and the reset function, so this patch fixes that up in a consistent fashion.
