The Network Manager attempts to use all 3 interfaces above without
filtering the managed interface type. As the result, 3 identical
interfaces are displayed under network manager. If user happens to
click on an entry under which its interface is uap0 or p2p0, the
association will fail.
Work around it by removing the creation of AP and P2P interfaces
at driver loading time. These interfaces can be added with 'iw' or
other applications manually when they are needed.

This commit fixes a long-standing bug that has been reported by many
users: on some Armada 370 platforms, only the network interface that
has been used in U-Boot to tftp the kernel works properly in
Linux. The other network interfaces can see a 'link up', but are
unable to transmit data. The reports were generally made on the Armada
370-based Mirabox, but have also been given on the Armada 370-RD
board.
The network MAC in the Armada 370/XP (supported by the mvneta driver
in Linux) has a functionality that allows it to continuously poll the
PHY and directly update the MAC configuration accordingly (speed,
duplex, etc.). The very first versions of the driver submitted for
review were using this hardware mechanism, but due to this, the driver
was not integrated with the kernel phylib. Following reviews, the
driver was changed to use the phylib, and therefore a software based
polling. In software based polling, Linux regularly talks to the PHY
over the MDIO bus, and sees if the link status has changed. If it's
the case then the adjust_link() callback of the driver is called to
update the MAC configuration accordingly.
However, it turns out that the adjust_link() callback was not
configuring the hardware in a completely correct way: while it was
setting the speed and duplex bits correctly, it wasn't telling the
hardware to actually take into account those bits rather than what the
hardware-based PHY polling mechanism has concluded. So, in fact the
adjust_link() callback was basically a no-op.
However, the network happened to be working because on the network
interfaces used by U-Boot for tftp on Armada 370 platforms because the
hardware PHY polling was enabled by the bootloader, and left enabled
by Linux. However, the second network interface not used for tftp (or
both network interfaces if the kernel is loaded from USB, NAND or SD
card) didn't had the hardware PHY polling enabled.
This patch fixes this situation by:
(1) Making sure that the hardware PHY polling is disabled by clearing
the MVNETA_PHY_POLLING_ENABLE bit in the MVNETA_UNIT_CONTROL
register in the driver ->probe() function.
(2) Making sure that the duplex and speed selections made by the
adjust_link() callback are taken into account by clearing the
MVNETA_GMAC_AN_SPEED_EN and MVNETA_GMAC_AN_DUPLEX_EN bits in the
MVNETA_GMAC_AUTONEG_CONFIG register.
This patch has been tested on Armada 370 Mirabox, and now both network
interfaces are usable after boot.

Allocating skbs when sending out neighbour discovery messages
currently uses sock_alloc_send_skb() based on a per net namespace
socket and thus share a socket wmem buffer space.
If a netdevice is temporarily unable to transmit due to carrier
loss or for other reasons, the queued up ndisc messages will cosnume
all of the wmem space and will thus prevent from any more skbs to
be allocated even for netdevices that are able to transmit packets.
The number of neighbour discovery messages sent is very limited,
use of alloc_skb() bypasses the socket wmem buffer size enforcement
while the manual call to skb_set_owner_w() maintains the socket
reference needed for the IPv6 output path.

The zero value means that tsecr is not valid, so it's a special case.
tsoffset is used to customize tcp_time_stamp for one socket.
tsoffset is usually zero, it's used when a socket was moved from one

commit 56b765b79 ("htb: improved accuracy at high rates")
broke the "linklayer atm" handling.
tc class add ... htb rate X ceil Y linklayer atm
The linklayer setting is implemented by modifying the rate table
which is send to the kernel. No direct parameter were
transferred to the kernel indicating the linklayer setting.
The commit 56b765b79 ("htb: improved accuracy at high rates")
removed the use of the rate table system.
To keep compatible with older iproute2 utils, this patch detects
the linklayer by parsing the rate table. It also supports future
versions of iproute2 to send this linklayer parameter to the
kernel directly. This is done by using the __reserved field in
struct tc_ratespec, to convey the choosen linklayer option, but
only using the lower 4 bits of this field.
Linklayer detection is limited to speeds below 100Mbit/s, because
at high rates the rtab is gets too inaccurate, so bad that
several fields contain the same values, this resembling the ATM
detect. Fields even start to contain "0" time to send, e.g. at
1000Mbit/s sending a 96 bytes packet cost "0", thus the rtab have
been more broken than we first realized.

Because of the max_addresses check attackers were able to disable privacy
extensions on an interface by creating enough autoconfigured addresses:
<http://seclists.org/oss-sec/2012/q4/292>
But the check is not actually needed: max_addresses protects the
kernel to install too many ipv6 addresses on an interface and guards
addrconf_prefix_rcv to install further addresses as soon as this limit
is reached. We only generate temporary addresses in direct response of
a new address showing up. As soon as we filled up the maximum number of
addresses of an interface, we stop installing more addresses and thus
also stop generating more temp addresses.
Even if the attacker tries to generate a lot of temporary addresses
by announcing a prefix and removing it again (lifetime == 0) we won't
install more temp addresses, because the temporary addresses do count
to the maximum number of addresses, thus we would stop installing new
autoconfigured addresses when the limit is reached.
This patch fixes CVE-2013-0343 (but other layer-2 attacks are still
possible).

Fix the iproute2 command `bridge vlan show`, after switching from
rtgenmsg to ifinfomsg.
Let's start with a little history:
Feb 20: Vlad Yasevich got his VLAN-aware bridge patchset included in
the 3.9 merge window.
In the kernel commit 6cbdceeb, he added attribute support to
bridge GETLINK requests sent with rtgenmsg.
Mar 6th: Vlad got this iproute2 reference implementation of the bridge
vlan netlink interface accepted (iproute2 9eff0e5c)
Apr 25th: iproute2 switched from using rtgenmsg to ifinfomsg (63338dca)
http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/239602/
http://marc.info/?t=136680900700007
Apr 28th: Linus released 3.9
Apr 30th: Stephen released iproute2 3.9.0
The `bridge vlan show` command haven't been working since the switch to
ifinfomsg, or in a released version of iproute2. Since the kernel side
only supports rtgenmsg, which iproute2 switched away from just prior to
the iproute2 3.9.0 release.
I haven't been able to find any documentation, about neither rtgenmsg
nor ifinfomsg, and in which situation to use which, but kernel commit 88c5b5ce seams to suggest that ifinfomsg should be used.
Fixing this in kernel will break compatibility, but I doubt that anybody
have been using it due to this bug in the user space reference
implementation, at least not without noticing this bug. That said the
functionality is still fully functional in 3.9, when reversing iproute2
commit 63338dca.
This could also be fixed in iproute2, but thats an ugly patch that would
reintroduce rtgenmsg in iproute2, and from searching in netdev it seams
like rtgenmsg usage is discouraged. I'm assuming that the only reason
that Vlad implemented the kernel side to use rtgenmsg, was because
iproute2 was using it at the time.

macvlan: add FDB bridge ops and macvlan flags
added a flags field to macvlan, which can be

The idea is to make the interface future-proof
so we can add flags and not new fields.
However, flags value isn't validated, as a result,
userspace can't detect which flags are supported.

It's possible to assign an invalid value to the net.core.somaxconn
sysctl variable, because there is no checks at all.
The sk_max_ack_backlog field of the sock structure is defined as
unsigned short. Therefore, the backlog argument in inet_listen()
shouldn't exceed USHRT_MAX. The backlog argument in the listen() syscall
is truncated to the somaxconn value. So, the somaxconn value shouldn't
exceed 65535 (USHRT_MAX).
Also, negative values of somaxconn are meaningless.

Avoid overlapping register regions by making the initial blklen of a new
node 1. If a register write occurs to a yet uncached register, that is
lower than but near an existing node's base_reg, a new node is created
and it's blklen is set to an arbitrary value (sizeof(*rbnode)). That may
cause this node to overlap with another node. Those nodes should be merged,
but this merge doesn't happen yet, so this patch at least makes the initial
blklen small enough to avoid hitting the wrong node, which may otherwise
lead to severe breakage.

This patch addresses a potential NULL pointer dereference regression in
iscsit_setup_nop_out() code, specifically for two cases when a solicited
NOPOUT triggers a ISCSI_REASON_PROTOCOL_ERROR reject to be generated.
This is because iscsi_cmd is expected to be NULL for solicited NOPOUT
case before iscsit_process_nop_out() locates the descriptor via TTT
using iscsit_find_cmd_from_ttt().
This patch fixes a bug in __iscsi_target_login_thread() where an explicit
network portal thread reset ends up leaking the iscsit_transport module
reference, along with the associated iscsi_conn allocation.
This manifests itself with iser-target where a NP reset causes the extra
iscsit_transport reference to be taken in iscsit_conn_set_transport()
during the reset, which prevents the ib_isert module from being unloaded
after the NP thread shutdown has finished.

This patch addresses a regression bug within ImmediateData=Yes failure
handling that ends up triggering an OOPs within >= v3.10 iscsi-target
code.
The problem occurs when iscsit_process_scsi_cmd() does the call to
target_put_sess_cmd(), and once again in iscsit_get_immediate_data()
that is triggered during two different cases:
- When iscsit_sequence_cmd() returns CMDSN_LOWER_THAN_EXP, for which
the descriptor state will already have been set to ISTATE_REMOVE
by iscsit_sequence_cmd(), and
- When iscsi_cmd->sense_reason is set, for which iscsit_execute_cmd()
will have already called transport_send_check_condition_and_sense()
to queue the exception response.
It changes iscsit_process_scsi_cmd() to drop the early call, and makes
iscsit_get_immediate_data() call target_put_sess_cmd() from a single
location after dumping the immediate data for the failed command.
The regression was initially introduced in commit:

brcm80211 cannot handle sending frames with CCK rates as part of an
A-MPDU session. Other drivers may have issues too. Set the flag in all
drivers that have been tested with CCK rates.
The PLL hang workaround is required only for AR9330 and
AR9340. This issue was first observed on an AP121 and the WAR
is enabled for AR9340 also (DB120 etc.), since it uses a PLL
design identical to AR9330. This is not required for AR9485 and AR9550.
ath9k_htc adds padding between the 802.11 header and the payload during
TX by moving the header. When handing the frame back to mac80211 for TX
status handling the header is not moved back into its original position.
This can result in a too small skb headroom when entering ath9k_htc
again (due to a soft retransmission for example) causing an
skb_under_panic oops.
Fix this by moving the 802.11 header back into its original position
before returning the frame to mac80211 as other drivers like rt2x00
or ath5k do.

Some architectures, such as ARM-32 do not return the same base address
when you call kmap_atomic() twice on the same page.
This causes problems for the memmove() call in the XDR helper routine
"_shift_data_right_pages()", since it defeats the detection of
overlapping memory ranges, and has been seen to corrupt memory.
The fix is to distinguish between the case where we're doing an

ranges cannot possibly overlap, so we can additionally micro-optimise
by replacing memmove() with memcpy().

If !PREEMPT, a kworker running work items back to back can hog CPU.
This becomes dangerous when a self-requeueing work item which is
waiting for something to happen races against stop_machine. Such
self-requeueing work item would requeue itself indefinitely hogging
the kworker and CPU it's running on while stop_machine would wait for
that CPU to enter stop_machine while preventing anything else from
happening on all other CPUs. The two would deadlock.
Jamie Liu reports that this deadlock scenario exists around
scsi_requeue_run_queue() and libata port multiplier support, where one
port may exclude command processing from other ports. With the right
timing, scsi_requeue_run_queue() can end up requeueing itself trying
to execute an IO which is asked to be retried while another device has
an exclusive access, which in turn can't make forward progress due to
stop_machine.
Fix it by invoking cond_resched() after executing each work item.
If the system had a few memory groups and all of them were destroyed,
memcg_limited_groups_array_size has non-zero value, but all new caches
are created without memcg_params, because memcg_kmem_enabled() returns
false.
We try to enumirate child caches in a few places and all of them are
potentially dangerous.
For example my kernel is compiled with CONFIG_SLAB and it crashed when I
tryed to mount a NFS share after a few experiments with kmemcg.
"cat /sys/devices/system/memory/memory*/removable" crashed the system.
The problem is that show_mem_removable() is passing a
bad pfn to is_mem_section_removable(), which causes
if (!node_online(page_to_nid(page)))
to blow up. Why is it passing in a bad pfn?
The reason is that show_mem_removable() will loop sections_per_block
times. sections_per_block is 16, but mem->section_count is 8,
indicating holes in this memory block. Checking that the memory section
is present before checking to see if the memory section is removable
fixes the problem.
According to 'man msgrcv': "If msgtyp is less than 0, the first message of
the lowest type that is less than or equal to the absolute value of msgtyp
shall be received."
Bug: The kernel only returns a message if its type is 1; other messages
with type < abs(msgtype) will never get returned.
Fix: After having traversed the list to find the first message with the
lowest type, we need to actually return that message.
This regression was introduced by commit daaf74cf0867 ("ipc: refactor
msg list search into separate function")

/proc/powerpc/lparcfg is an ancient facility (though still actively used)
which allows access to some informations relative to the partition when
running underneath a PAPR compliant hypervisor.
It makes no sense on non-pseries machines. However, currently, not only
can it be created on these if the kernel has pseries support, but accessing
it on such a machine will crash due to trying to do hypervisor calls.
In fact, it should also not do HV calls on older pseries that didn't have
an hypervisor either.
Finally, it has the plumbing to be a module but is a "bool" Kconfig option.
This fixes the whole lot by turning it into a machine_device_initcall
that is only created on pseries, and adding the necessary hypervisor
check before calling the H_GET_EM_PARMS hypercall

This ends up effectively ignoring the offset, since its bottom 32 bits
are zero, and means that the result of __pa() still has 0xC in the top
nibble. This happens with gcc 4.8.1, at least.
To work around this, for 64-bit we make __pa() use an AND operator,
and for symmetry, we make __va() use an OR operator. Using an AND
operator rather than a subtraction ends up with slightly shorter code
since it can be done with a single clrldi instruction, whereas it
takes three instructions to form the constant (-PAGE_OFFSET) and add
it on. (Note that MEMORY_START is always 0 on 64-bit.)

snd-opti92x-ad1848 and -cs4231 drivers register the ISA driver with
the same name, too. When these drivers are built in, quick

There is a nasty bug in the SCSI SG_IO ioctl that in some circumstances
leads to one process writing data into the address space of some other
random unrelated process if the ioctl is interrupted by a signal.
What happens is the following:
- A process issues an SG_IO ioctl with direction DXFER_FROM_DEV (ie the
underlying SCSI command will transfer data from the SCSI device to
the buffer provided in the ioctl)
- Before the command finishes, a signal is sent to the process waiting
in the ioctl. This will end up waking up the sg_ioctl() code:
result = wait_event_interruptible(sfp->read_wait,
(srp_done(sfp, srp) || sdp->detached));
but neither srp_done() nor sdp->detached is true, so we end up just
setting srp->orphan and returning to userspace:
srp->orphan = 1;
write_unlock_irq(&sfp->rq_list_lock);
return result; /* -ERESTARTSYS because signal hit process */
At this point the original process is done with the ioctl and
blithely goes ahead handling the signal, reissuing the ioctl, etc.
- Eventually, the SCSI command issued by the first ioctl finishes and
ends up in sg_rq_end_io(). At the end of that function, we run through:
write_lock_irqsave(&sfp->rq_list_lock, iflags);
if (unlikely(srp->orphan)) {
if (sfp->keep_orphan)
srp->sg_io_owned = 0;
else
done = 0;
}
srp->done = done;
write_unlock_irqrestore(&sfp->rq_list_lock, iflags);
if (likely(done)) {
/* Now wake up any sg_read() that is waiting for this
* packet.
*/
wake_up_interruptible(&sfp->read_wait);
kill_fasync(&sfp->async_qp, SIGPOLL, POLL_IN);
kref_put(&sfp->f_ref, sg_remove_sfp);
} else {
INIT_WORK(&srp->ew.work, sg_rq_end_io_usercontext);
schedule_work(&srp->ew.work);
}
Since srp->orphan *is* set, we set done to 0 (assuming the
userspace app has not set keep_orphan via an SG_SET_KEEP_ORPHAN
ioctl), and therefore we end up scheduling sg_rq_end_io_usercontext()
to run in a workqueue.
- In workqueue context we go through sg_rq_end_io_usercontext() ->
sg_finish_rem_req() -> blk_rq_unmap_user() -> ... ->
bio_uncopy_user() -> __bio_copy_iov() -> copy_to_user().
The key point here is that we are doing copy_to_user() on a
workqueue -- that is, we're on a kernel thread with current->mm
equal to whatever random previous user process was scheduled before
this kernel thread. So we end up copying whatever data the SCSI
command returned to the virtual address of the buffer passed into
the original ioctl, but it's quite likely we do this copying into a
different address space!
As suggested by James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@hansenpartnership.com>,
add a check for current->mm (which is NULL if we're on a kernel thread
without a real userspace address space) in bio_uncopy_user(), and skip
the copy if we're on a kernel thread.
There's no reason that I can think of for any caller of bio_uncopy_user()
to want to do copying on a kernel thread with a random active userspace
address space.

Apparently, the ref_count for some scsi_device drops down to zero,
triggering device removal through execute_in_process_context(), while
the lldd error recovery thread iterates through a scsi device list.
Unfortunately, execute_in_process_context() decides to immediately
execute that device removal function, instead of scheduling asynchronous
execution, since it detects process context and thinks it is safe to do
so. But almost all calls to shost_for_each_device() in our lldd are
inside spin_lock_irq, even in thread context. Obviously, schedule()
inside spin_lock_irq sections is a bad idea.
Change the lldd to use the proper iterator function,
__shost_for_each_device(), in combination with required locking.
Occurences that need to be changed include all calls in zfcp_erp.c,
since those might be executed in zfcp error recovery thread context
with a lock held.
Other occurences of shost_for_each_device() in zfcp_fsf.c do not
need to be changed (no process context, no surrounding locking).
The problem was introduced in Linux 2.6.37 by commit b62a8d9b45b971a67a0f8413338c230e3117dff5
"[SCSI] zfcp: Use SCSI device data zfcp_scsi_dev instead of zfcp_unit".

This patch adds wait_event_interruptible_lock_irq_timeout(), which is a
straight-forward descendant of wait_event_interruptible_timeout() and
wait_event_interruptible_lock_irq().
The zfcp driver used to call wait_event_interruptible_timeout()
in combination with some intricate and error-prone locking. Using
wait_event_interruptible_lock_irq_timeout() as a replacement
nicely cleans up that locking.
This rework removes a situation that resulted in a locking imbalance
in zfcp_qdio_sbal_get():
BUG: workqueue leaked lock or atomic: events/1/0xffffff00/10
last function: zfcp_fc_wka_port_offline+0x0/0xa0 [zfcp]
It was introduced by commit c2af7545aaff3495d9bf9a7608c52f0af86fb194
"[SCSI] zfcp: Do not wait for SBALs on stopped queue", which had a new
code path related to ZFCP_STATUS_ADAPTER_QDIOUP that took an early exit
without a required lock being held. The problem occured when a
special, non-SCSI I/O request was being submitted in process context,
when the adapter's queues had been torn down. In this case the bug
surfaced when the Fibre Channel port connection for a well-known address
was closed during a concurrent adapter shut-down procedure, which is a
rare constellation.
This patch also fixes these warnings from the sparse tool (make C=1):
drivers/s390/scsi/zfcp_qdio.c:224:12: warning: context imbalance in
'zfcp_qdio_sbal_check' - wrong count at exit
drivers/s390/scsi/zfcp_qdio.c:244:5: warning: context imbalance in
'zfcp_qdio_sbal_get' - unexpected unlock
Last but not least, we get rid of that crappy lock-unlock-lock
sequence at the beginning of the critical section.
It is okay to call zfcp_erp_adapter_reopen() with req_q_lock held.
As Arjan pointed out, we mustn't do anything related to PCI
configuration until the device is properly enabled with
pci_enable_device().

This is because we nulify ctx->vif in iwlagn_mac_remove_interface()
before calling some other functions that teardown interface. To fix
just check ctx->vif on iwl_chswitch_done(). We should not call
ieee80211_chswitch_done() as channel switch works were already canceled
by mac80211 in ieee80211_do_stop() -> ieee80211_mgd_stop().
Fixing support for the Silicon Image 3826 port multiplier, by applying
to it the same quirks applied to the Silicon Image 3726. Specifically
fixes the repeated timeout/reset process which previously afflicted
the 3726, as described from line 290. Slightly based on notes from:
We want the data stored in "addr" and "qual", but the extra ampersands
mean we are copying stack data instead.
