libceph: use pg_num_mask instead of pgp_num_mask for pg.seed calc

2013-09-27T00:21:58+00:00

commit 9542cf0bf9b1a3adcc2ef271edbcbdba03abf345 upstream.

Fix a typo that used the wrong bitmask for the pg.seed calculation.  This
is normally unnoticed because in most cases pg_num == pgp_num.  It is, however,
a bug that is easily corrected.

libceph: unregister request in __map_request failed and nofail == false

2013-09-27T00:21:58+00:00

commit 73d9f7eef3d98c3920e144797cc1894c6b005a1e upstream.

For nofail == false request, if __map_request failed, the caller does
cleanup work, like releasing the relative pages.  It doesn't make any sense
to retry this request.

mac80211: ignore (E)CSA in probe response frames

2013-09-27T00:21:44+00:00

commit d70b7616d9080ec9f868fbd31db5fd4341435d61 upstream.

Seth reports that some APs, notably the Netgear WNDAP360, send
invalid ECSA IEs in probe response frames with the operating
class and channel number both set to zero, even when no channel
switch is being done. As a result, any scan while connected to
such an AP results in the connection being dropped.

Fix this by ignoring any channel switch announcment in probe
response frames entirely, since we're connected to the AP we
will be receiving a beacon (and maybe even an action frame) if
a channel switch is done, which is sufficient.

Pull networking fixes from David Miller:

 1) There was a simplification in the ipv6 ndisc packet sending
    attempted here, which avoided using memory accounting on the
    per-netns ndisc socket for sending NDISC packets.  It did fix some
    important issues, but it causes regressions so it gets reverted here
    too.  Specifically, the problem with this change is that the IPV6
    output path really depends upon there being a valid skb->sk
    attached.

    The reason we want to do this change in some form when we figure out
    how to do it right, is that if a device goes down the ndisc_sk
    socket send queue will fill up and block NDISC packets that we want
    to send to other devices too.  That's really bad behavior.

    Hopefully Thomas can come up with a better version of this change.

 2) Fix a severe TCP performance regression by reverting a change made
    to dev_pick_tx() quite some time ago.  From Eric Dumazet.

 3) TIPC returns wrongly signed error codes, fix from Erik Hugne.

 4) Fix OOPS when doing IPSEC over ipv4 tunnels due to orphaning the
    skb->sk too early.  Fix from Li Hongjun.

 5) RAW ipv4 sockets can use the wrong routing key during lookup, from
    Chris Clark.

 6) Similar to #1 revert an older change that tried to use plain
    alloc_skb() for SYN/ACK TCP packets, this broke the netfilter owner
    mark which needs to see the skb->sk for such frames.  From Phil
    Oester.

 7) BNX2x driver bug fixes from Ariel Elior and Yuval Mintz,
    specifically in the handling of virtual functions.

 8) IPSEC path error propagations to sockets is not done properly when
    we have v4 in v6, and v6 in v4 type rules.  Fix from Hannes Frederic
    Sowa.

 9) Fix missing channel context release in mac80211, from Johannes Berg.

10) Fix network namespace handing wrt.  SCM_RIGHTS, from Andy
    Lutomirski.

11) Fix usage of bogus NAPI weight in jme, netxen, and ps3_gelic
    drivers.  From Michal Schmidt.

12) Hopefully a complete and correct fix for the genetlink dump locking
    and module reference counting.  From Pravin B Shelar.

13) sk_busy_loop() must do a cpu_relax(), from Eliezer Tamir.

14) Fix handling of timestamp offset when restoring a snapshotted TCP
    socket.  From Andrew Vagin.

net: bridge: convert MLDv2 Query MRC into msecs_to_jiffies for max_delay

2013-08-30T21:56:47+00:00

While looking into MLDv1/v2 code, I noticed that bridging code does
not convert it's max delay into jiffies for MLDv2 messages as we do
in core IPv6' multicast code.

RFC3810, 5.1.3. Maximum Response Code says:

  The Maximum Response Code field specifies the maximum time allowed
  before sending a responding Report. The actual time allowed, called
  the Maximum Response Delay, is represented in units of milliseconds,
  and is derived from the Maximum Response Code as follows: [...]

As we update timers that work with jiffies, we need to convert it.

net: revert 8728c544a9c ("net: dev_pick_tx() fix")

2013-08-30T21:48:04+00:00

commit 8728c544a9cbdc ("net: dev_pick_tx() fix") and commit
b6fe83e9525a ("bonding: refine IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE capability")
are quite incompatible : Queue selection is disabled because skb
dst was dropped before entering bonding device.

This causes major performance regression, mainly because TCP packets
for a given flow can be sent to multiple queues.

This is particularly visible when using the new FQ packet scheduler
with MQ + FQ setup on the slaves.

We can safely revert the first commit now that 416186fbf8c5b
("net: Split core bits of netdev_pick_tx into __netdev_pick_tx")
properly caps the queue_index.

This reverts commit 1f324e38870cc09659cf23bc626f1b8869e201f2.

It seems to cause regressions, and in particular the output path
really depends upon there being a socket attached to skb->sk for
checks such as sk_mc_loop(skb->sk) for example.  See ip6_output_finish2().

ipv4 tunnels: fix an oops when using ipip/sit with IPsec

2013-08-30T21:13:28+00:00

Since commit 3d7b46cd20e3 (ip_tunnel: push generic protocol handling to
ip_tunnel module.), an Oops is triggered when an xfrm policy is configured on
an IPv4 over IPv4 tunnel.

xfrm4_policy_check() calls __xfrm_policy_check2(), which uses skb_dst(skb). But
this field is NULL because iptunnel_pull_header() calls skb_dst_drop(skb).

tipc: set sk_err correctly when connection fails

2013-08-30T20:06:57+00:00

Should a connect fail, if the publication/server is unavailable or
due to some other error, a positive value will be returned and errno
is never set. If the application code checks for an explicit zero
return from connect (success) or a negative return (failure), it
will not catch the error and subsequent send() calls will fail as
shown from the strace snippet below.

socket(0x1e /* PF_??? */, SOCK_SEQPACKET, 0) = 3
connect(3, {sa_family=0x1e /* AF_??? */, sa_data="\2\1\322\4\0\0\322\4\0\0\0\0\0\0"}, 16) = 111
sendto(3, "test", 4, 0, NULL, 0)        = -1 EPIPE (Broken pipe)

The reason for this behaviour is that TIPC wrongly inverts error
codes set in sk_err.

tcp: tcp_make_synack() should use sock_wmalloc

2013-08-30T20:02:04+00:00

In commit 90ba9b19 (tcp: tcp_make_synack() can use alloc_skb()), Eric changed
the call to sock_wmalloc in tcp_make_synack to alloc_skb.  In doing so,
the netfilter owner match lost its ability to block the SYNACK packet on
outbound listening sockets.  Revert the change, restoring the owner match
functionality.

This closes netfilter bugzilla #847.
