2011-06-30Bluetooth: Add bt_printkJoe Perches
Add a local logging function to emit bluetooth specific messages. Using vsprintf extension %pV saves code/text space. Convert the current BT_INFO and BT_ERR macros to use bt_printk. Remove __func__ from BT_ERR macro (and the uses). Prefix "Bluetooth: " to BT_ERR Remove __func__ from BT_DBG as function can be prefixed when using dynamic_debug.

2011-06-30Bluetooth: Fix hidp disconnect deadlocks and lost wakeupPeter Hurley
Partial revert of commit aabf6f89. When the hidp session thread was converted from kernel_thread to kthread, the atomic/wakeups were replaced with kthread_stop. kthread_stop has blocking semantics which are inappropriate for the hidp session kthread. In addition, the kthread signals itself to terminate in hidp_process_hid_control() - it cannot do this with kthread_stop(). Lastly, a wakeup can be lost if the wakeup happens between checking for the loop exit condition and setting the current state to TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE. (Without appropriate synchronization mechanisms, the task state should not be changed between the condition test and the yield - via schedule() - as this creates a race between the wakeup and resetting the state back to interruptible.)

2011-06-30netfilter: add SELinux context support to AUDIT targetMr Dash Four
In this revision the conversion of secid to SELinux context and adding it to the audit log is moved from xt_AUDIT.c to audit.c with the aid of a separate helper function - audit_log_secctx - which does both the conversion and logging of SELinux context, thus also preventing internal secid number being leaked to userspace. If conversion is not successful an error is raised. With the introduction of this helper function the work done in xt_AUDIT.c is much more simplified. It also opens the possibility of this helper function being used by other modules (including auditd itself), if desired. With this addition, typical (raw auditd) output after applying the patch would be: type=NETFILTER_PKT msg=audit(1305852240.082:31012): action=0 hook=1 len=52 inif=? outif=eth0 saddr=10.1.1.7 daddr=10.1.2.1 ipid=16312 proto=6 sport=56150 dport=22 obj=system_u:object_r:ssh_client_packet_t:s0 type=NETFILTER_PKT msg=audit(1306772064.079:56): action=0 hook=3 len=48 inif=eth0 outif=? smac=00:05:5d:7c:27:0b dmac=00:02:b3:0a:7f:81 macproto=0x0800 saddr=10.1.2.1 daddr=10.1.1.7 ipid=462 proto=6 sport=22 dport=3561 obj=system_u:object_r:ssh_server_packet_t:s0 Acked-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Mr Dash Four <mr.dash.four@googlemail.com> Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net>

2011-06-29netfilter: Fix ip_route_me_harder triggering ip_rt_bugJulian Anastasov
Avoid creating input routes with ip_route_me_harder. It does not work for locally generated packets. Instead, restrict sockets to provide valid saddr for output route (or unicast saddr for transparent proxy). For other traffic allow saddr to be unicast or local but if callers forget to check saddr type use 0 for the output route. The resulting handling should be: - REJECT TCP: - in INPUT we can provide addr_type = RTN_LOCAL but better allow rejecting traffic delivered with local route (no IP address => use RTN_UNSPEC to allow also RTN_UNICAST). - FORWARD: RTN_UNSPEC => allow RTN_LOCAL/RTN_UNICAST saddr, add fix to ignore RTN_BROADCAST and RTN_MULTICAST - OUTPUT: RTN_UNSPEC - NAT, mangle, ip_queue, nf_ip_reroute: RTN_UNSPEC in LOCAL_OUT - IPVS: - use RTN_LOCAL in LOCAL_OUT and FORWARD after SNAT to restrict saddr to be local Signed-off-by: Julian Anastasov <ja@ssi.bg> Signed-off-by: David S.

2011-06-28Bluetooth: Prevent buffer overflow in l2cap config requestDan Rosenberg
A remote user can provide a small value for the command size field in the command header of an l2cap configuration request, resulting in an integer underflow when subtracting the size of the configuration request header. This results in copying a very large amount of data via memcpy() and destroying the kernel heap. Check for underflow.

2011-06-27ipv4: Fix IPsec slowpath fragmentation problemSteffen Klassert
ip_append_data() builds packets based on the mtu from dst_mtu(rt->dst.path). On IPsec the effective mtu is lower because we need to add the protocol headers and trailers later when we do the IPsec transformations. So after the IPsec transformations the packet might be too big, which leads to a slowpath fragmentation then. This patch fixes this by building the packets based on the lower IPsec mtu from dst_mtu(&rt->dst) and adapts the exthdr handling to this.

2011-06-27ipv4: Fix packet size calculation in __ip_append_dataSteffen Klassert
Git commit 59104f06 (ip: take care of last fragment in ip_append_data) added a check to see if we exceed the mtu when we add trailer_len. However, the mtu is already subtracted by the trailer length when the xfrm transfomation bundles are set up. So IPsec packets with mtu size get fragmented, or if the DF bit is set the packets will not be send even though they match the mtu perfectly fine. This patch actually reverts commit 59104f06.

2011-06-27net_sched: fix dequeuer fairnessjamal
Results on dummy device can be seen in my netconf 2011 slides. These results are for a 10Gige IXGBE intel nic - on another i5 machine, very similar specs to the one used in the netconf2011 results. It turns out - this is a hell lot worse than dummy and so this patch is even more beneficial for 10G. Test setup: ---------- System under test sending packets out. Additional box connected directly dropping packets. Installed prio qdisc on the eth device and default netdev default length of 1000 used as is. The 3 prio bands each were set to 100 (didnt factor in the results). 5 packet runs were made and the middle 3 picked. results ------- The "cpu" column indicates the which cpu the sample was taken on, The "Pkt runx" carries the number of packets a cpu dequeued when forced to be in the "dequeuer" role. The "avg" for each run is the number of times each cpu should be a "dequeuer" if the system was fair. 3.0-rc4 (plain) cpu Pkt run1 Pkt run2 Pkt run3 ================================================ cpu0 21853354 21598183 22199900 cpu1 431058 473476 393159 cpu2 481975 477529 458466 cpu3 23261406 23412299 22894315 avg 11506948 11490372 11486460 3.0-rc4 with patch and default weight 64 cpu Pkt run1 Pkt run2 Pkt run3 ================================================ cpu0 13205312 13109359 13132333 cpu1 10189914 10159127 10122270 cpu2 10213871 10124367 10168722 cpu3 13165760 13164767 13096705 avg 11693714 11639405 11630008 As you can see the system is still not perfect but is a lot better than what it was before...

2011-06-24bridge: Only flood unregistered groups to routersHerbert Xu
The bridge currently floods packets to groups that we have never seen before to all ports. This is not required by RFC4541 and in fact it is not desirable in environment where traffic to unregistered group is always present. This patch changes the behaviour so that we only send traffic to unregistered groups to ports marked as routers. The user can always force flooding behaviour to any given port by marking it as a router.

2011-06-24tipc: Partition name table instance array info into two partsAllan Stephens
Modifies the name table array structure that contains the name sequence instances for a given name type so that the publication lists associated with a given instance are stored in a dynamically allocated structure, rather than being embedded within the array entry itself. This change is being done for several reasons: 1) It reduces the amount of data that needs to be copied whenever a given array is expanded or contracted to accommodate the first publication of a new name sequence or the removal of the last publication of an existing name sequence. 2) It reduces the amount of memory associated with array entries that are currently unused. 3) It facilitates the upcoming conversion of the publication lists from TIPC-specific circular lists to standard kernel lists. (Standard lists cannot be used with the former array structure because the relocation of array entries during array expansion and contraction would corrupt the lists.) Note that, aside from introducing a small amount of code to dynamically allocate and free the structure that now holds publication list info, this change is largely a simple renaming exercise that replaces references to "sseq->LIST" with "sseq->info->LIST" (or "info->LIST").

2011-06-24tipc: Eliminate message header routines for caching destination nodeAllan Stephens
Gets rid of a pair of routines that provide support for temporarily caching the destination node for a message in the associated message buffer's application handle, since this capability is no longer used.

2011-06-24tipc: Optimizations & corrections to message rejectionAllan Stephens
Optimizes the creation of a returned payload message by duplicating the original message and then updating the small number of fields that need to be adjusted, rather than building the new message header from scratch. In addition, certain operations that are not always required are relocated so that they are only done if needed. These optimizations also have the effect of addressing other issues that were present previously: 1) Fixes a bug that caused the socket send routines to return the size of the returned message, rather than the size of the sent message, when a returnable payload message was sent to a non-existent destination port. 2) The message header of the returned message now matches that of the original message more closely. The header is now always the same size as the original header, and some message header fields that weren't being initialized in the returned message header are now populated correctly -- namely the "d" and "s" bits, and the upper bound of a multicast name instance (where present).

2011-06-24tipc: Optimize routing of returned payload messagesAllan Stephens
Reduces the work involved in transmitting a returned payload message by doing only the work necessary to route such a message directly to the specified destination port, rather than invoking the code used to route an arbitrary message to an arbitrary destination.
