2009-09-02tc: Fix unitialized kernel memory leakEric Dumazet
Three bytes of uninitialized kernel memory are currently leaked to user Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Reviewed-by: Jiri Pirko <jpirko@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2009-09-01pkt_sched: Revert tasklet_hrtimer changes.David S. Miller
These are full of unresolved problems, mainly that conversions don't work 1-1 from hrtimers to tasklet_hrtimers because unlike hrtimers tasklets can't be killed from softirq context. And when a qdisc gets reset, that's exactly what we need to do here. We'll work this out in the net-next-2.6 tree and if warranted we'll backport that work to -stable. This reverts the following 3 changesets: a2cb6a4dd470d7a64255a10b843b0d188416b78f ("pkt_sched: Fix bogon in tasklet_hrtimer changes.") 38acce2d7983632100a9ff3fd20295f6e34074a8 ("pkt_sched: Convert CBQ to tasklet_hrtimer.") ee5f9757ea17759e1ce5503bdae2b07e48e32af9 ("pkt_sched: Convert qdisc_watchdog to tasklet_hrtimer") Signed-off-by: David S.

2009-09-01net: sk_free() should be allowed right after sk_alloc()Jarek Poplawski
After commit 2b85a34e911bf483c27cfdd124aeb1605145dc80 (net: No more expensive sock_hold()/sock_put() on each tx) sk_free() frees socks conditionally and depends on sk_wmem_alloc being set e.g. in sock_init_data(). But in some cases sk_free() is called earlier, usually after other alloc errors. Fix is to move sk_wmem_alloc initialization from sock_init_data() to sk_alloc() itself.

2009-08-17net: restore gnet_stats_basic to previous definitionEric Dumazet
In 5e140dfc1fe87eae27846f193086724806b33c7d "net: reorder struct Qdisc for better SMP performance" the definition of struct gnet_stats_basic changed incompatibly, as copies of this struct are shipped to userland via netlink. Restoring old behavior is not welcome, for performance reason. Fix is to use a private structure for kernel, and teach gnet_stats_copy_basic() to convert from kernel to user land, using legacy structure (struct gnet_stats_basic) Based on a report and initial patch from Michael Spang.

2009-08-13mac80211: fix panic when splicing unprepared TIDsLuis R. Rodriguez
We splice skbs from the pending queue for a TID onto the local pending queue when tearing down a block ack request. This is not necessary unless we actually have received a request to start a block ack request (rate control, for example). If we never received that request we should not be splicing the tid pending queue as it would be null, causing a panic. Not sure yet how exactly we allowed through a call when the tid state does not have at least HT_ADDBA_REQUESTED_MSK set, that will require some further review as it is not quite obvious.

2009-08-03cfg80211: fix regression on beacon world roaming featureLuis R. Rodriguez
A regression was added through patch a4ed90d6: "cfg80211: respect API on orig_flags on channel for beacon hint" We did indeed respect _orig flags but the intention was not clearly stated in the commit log. This patch fixes firmware issues picked up by iwlwifi when we lift passive scan of beaconing restrictions on channels its EEPROM has been configured to always enable. By doing so though we also disallowed beacon hints on devices registering their wiphy with custom world regulatory domains enabled, this happens to be currently ath5k, ath9k and ar9170. The passive scan and beacon restrictions on those devices would never be lifted even if we did find a beacon and the hardware did support such enhancements when world roaming. Since Johannes indicates iwlwifi firmware cannot be changed to allow beacon hinting we set up a flag now to specifically allow drivers to disable beacon hints for devices which cannot use them. We enable the flag on iwlwifi to disable beacon hints and by default enable it for all other drivers. It should be noted beacon hints lift passive scan flags and beacon restrictions when we receive a beacon from an AP on any 5 GHz non-DFS channels, and channels 12-14 on the 2.4 GHz band. We don't bother with channels 1-11 as those channels are allowed world wide. This should fix world roaming for ath5k, ath9k and ar9170, thereby improving scan time when we receive the first beacon from any AP, and also enabling beaconing operation (AP/IBSS/Mesh) on cards which would otherwise not be allowed to do so. Drivers not using custom regulatory stuff (wiphy_apply_custom_regulatory()) were not affected by this as the orig_flags for the channels would have been cleared upon wiphy registration. I tested this with a world roaming ath5k card. Cc: Jouni Malinen <jouni.malinen@atheros.com> Signed-off-by: Luis R.

2009-07-29mac80211: fix suspendJohannes Berg
Jan reported that his b43-based laptop hangs during suspend. The problem turned out to be mac80211 asking the driver to stop the hardware before removing interfaces, and interface removal caused b43 to touch the hardware (while down, which causes the hang). This patch fixes mac80211 to do reorder these operations to have them in the correct order -- first remove interfaces and then stop the hardware. Some more code is necessary to be able to do so in a race-free manner, in particular it is necessary to not process frames received during quiescing.
