2010-12-16ipv6: delete expired route in ip6_pmtu_deliverAndrey Vagin
The first big packets sent to a "low-MTU" client correctly triggers the creation of a temporary route containing the reduced MTU. But after the temporary route has expired, new ICMP6 "packet too big" will be sent, rt6_pmtu_discovery will find the previous EXPIRED route check that its mtu isn't bigger then in icmp packet and do nothing before the temporary route will not deleted by gc. I make the simple experiment: while :; do time ( dd if=/dev/zero bs=10K count=1 | ssh hostname dd of=/dev/null ) || break; done The "time" reports real 0m0.197s if a temporary route isn't expired, but it reports real 0m52.837s (!!!!) immediately after a temporare route has expired.

2010-12-16cfg80211: fix null pointer dereference with a custom regulatory requestLuis R. Rodriguez
Once we moved the core regulatory request to the queue and let the scheduler process it last_request will have been left NULL until the schedular decides to process the first request. When this happens and we are loading a driver with a custom regulatory request like all Atheros drivers we end up with a NULL pointer dereference. We fix this by checking if the request was a custom one.

2010-12-16nl80211: Add notification for dropped Deauth/DisassocJouni Malinen
Add a new notification to indicate that a received, unprotected Deauthentication or Disassociation frame was dropped due to management frame protection being in use. This notification is needed to allow user space (e.g., wpa_supplicant) to implement SA Query procedure to recover from association state mismatch between an AP and STA. This is needed to avoid getting stuck in non-working state when MFP (IEEE 802.11w) is used and a protected Deauthentication or Disassociation frame is dropped for any reason. After that, the station would silently discard any unprotected Deauthentication or Disassociation frame that could be indicating that the AP does not have association for the STA (when the Reason Code would be 6 or 7). IEEE Std 802.11w-2009, 11.13 describes this recovery mechanism. Signed-off-by: Jouni Malinen <j@w1.fi> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

Clean up. The trend in the other XDR encoder functions is to BUG() when encoding problems occur, since a problem here is always due to a local coding error. Then, instead of a status, zero is unconditionally returned. Update the rpcbind XDR encoders to behave this way. To finish the update, use the new-style be32_to_cpup() and cpu_to_be32() macros, and compute the buffer sizes using raw integers instead of sizeof(). This matches the conventions used in other XDR functions. Signed-off-by: Chuck Lever <chuck.lever@oracle.com> Tested-by: J.

Make all RTAX_ADVMSS metric accesses go through a new helper function, dst_metric_advmss(). Leave the actual default metric as "zero" in the real metric slot, and compute the actual default value dynamically via a new dst_ops AF specific callback. For stacked IPSEC routes, we use the advmss of the path which preserves existing behavior. Unlike ipv4/ipv6, DecNET ties the advmss to the mtu and thus updates advmss on pmtu updates.

2010-12-13mac80211 default tx_last_beacon false (congestion)Tim Harvey
The 802.11 spec states that the STA that generated the last Beacon frame shall be the STA that response to a probe request. This is important for congestion reduction when a probe request is received - only 1 node in an adhoc BSS will transmit a response. While mac80211 drivers should provide the tx_last_beacon function to report if they transmitted the last beacon many do not. As an attempt to reduce probe response congestion default this to 0 such that a node not implementing this capability does not contribute to unnecessary congestion. In a modern medium sized office environment I see upwards of 100 probe requests per second received at a given node from various hardware/OS/drivers doing zeroconf 'active probing' as opposed to passively listening for beacons. With a modest 10-node adhoc network consisting of drivers that do not implement this tx_last_beacon feature, I have seen this result in the simultaneous xmit of probe responses accumulating to 500 probe responses per second because of collisions which brings the adhoc network to its knees as well as causes needless congestion.

Add a field to wiphy for the hardware to report the availble antennas for configuration. Only if this is set to something bigger than zero, will the anntenna configuration ops be executed. Allthough this could be a simple number of antennas, I defined it as a bitmap of antennas which are available for configuration, since it's more consistent with the rest of the antenna API and there could be cases where the hardware allows only configuration of certain antennas. As it does not make much of a difference in size or normal usage, I think it's better to be able to support this, in case the need arises. The antenna configuration is now also checked against the availabe antennas and rejected if it does not match.

2010-12-13mac80211: avoid calling ieee80211_work_work unconditionallyHerton Ronaldo Krzesinski
On suspend, there might be usb wireless drivers which wrongly trigger the warning in ieee80211_work_work. If an usb driver doesn't have a suspend hook, the usb stack will disconnect the device. On disconnect, a mac80211 driver calls ieee80211_unregister_hw, which calls dev_close, which calls ieee80211_stop, and in the end calls ieee80211_work_purge-> ieee80211_work_work. The problem is that this call to ieee80211_work_purge comes after mac80211 is suspended, triggering the warning even when we don't have work queued in work_list (the expected case when already suspended), because it always calls ieee80211_work_work. So, just call ieee80211_work_work in ieee80211_work_purge if we really have to abort work.

2010-12-12ipv4: Don't pre-seed hoplimit metric.David S. Miller
Always go through a new ip4_dst_hoplimit() helper, just like ipv6. This allowed several simplifications: 1) The interim dst_metric_hoplimit() can go as it's no longer userd. 2) The sysctl_ip_default_ttl entry no longer needs to use ipv4_doint_and_flush, since the sysctl is not cached in routing cache metrics any longer. 3) ipv4_doint_and_flush no longer needs to be exported and therefore can be marked static. When ipv4_doint_and_flush_strategy was removed some time ago, the external declaration in ip.h was mistakenly left around so kill that off too. We have to move the sysctl_ip_default_ttl declaration into ipv4's route cache definition header net/route.h, because currently net/ip.h (where the declaration lives now) has a back dependency on net/route.h Signed-off-by: David S.

After commit c1f19b51d1d8 (net: support time stamping in phy devices.), kernel might crash if CONFIG_NETWORK_PHY_TIMESTAMPING=y and skb_defer_rx_timestamp() handles a packet without an ethernet header.

2010-12-10bridge: Use consistent NF_DROP returns in nf_pre_routingHerbert Xu
The nf_pre_routing functions in bridging have collected two distinct ways of returning NF_DROP over the years, inline and via goto. There is no reason for preferring either one. So this patch arbitrarily picks the inline variant and converts the all the gotos. Also removes a redundant comment. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S.

2010-12-10ethtool: Report link-down while interface is downBen Hutchings
While an interface is down, many implementations of ethtool_ops::get_link, including the default, ethtool_op_get_link(), will report the last link state seen while the interface was up. In general the current physical link state is not available if the interface is down. Define ETHTOOL_GLINK to reflect whether the interface *and* any physical port have a working link, and consistently return 0 when the interface is down.

2010-12-10atm: correct sysfs 'device' link creation and parent relationshipsDan Williams
The ATM subsystem was incorrectly creating the 'device' link for ATM nodes in sysfs. This led to incorrect device/parent relationships exposed by sysfs and udev. Instead of rolling the 'device' link by hand in the generic ATM code, pass each ATM driver's bus device down to the sysfs code and let sysfs do this stuff correctly.

2010-12-10pktgen: adding prefetchw() callJunchang Wang
We know for sure pktgen is going to write skb->data right after *_alloc_skb, causing unnecessary cache misses. Idea is to add a prefetchw() call to prefetch the first cache line indicated by skb->data. On systems with Adjacent Cache Line Prefetch, it's probably two cache lines are prefetched. With this patch, pktgen on Intel SR1625 server with two E5530 quad-core processors and a single ixgbe-based NIC went from 8.63Mpps to 9.03Mpps, with 4.6% improvement.

SCTP_SET_PEER_PRIMARY_ADDR does not accpet v4mapped address, using v4mapped address in SCTP_SET_PEER_PRIMARY_ADDR socket option will get -EADDRNOTAVAIL error if v4map is enabled.
