2010-08-26netlink: fix compat recvmsgJohannes Berg
commit 68d6ac6d2740b6a55f3ae92a4e0be6d881904b32 upstream. Since commit 1dacc76d0014a034b8aca14237c127d7c19d7726 Author: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Date: Wed Jul 1 11:26:02 2009 +0000 net/compat/wext: send different messages to compat tasks we had a race condition when setting and then restoring frag_list. Eric attempted to fix it, but the fix created even worse problems. However, the original motivation I had when I added the code that turned out to be racy is no longer clear to me, since we only copy up to skb->len to userspace, which doesn't include the frag_list length. As a result, not doing any frag_list clearing and restoring avoids the race condition, while not introducing any other problems. Additionally, while preparing this patch I found that since none of the remaining netlink code is really aware of the frag_list, we need to use the original skb's information for packet information and credentials. This fixes, for example, the group information received by compat tasks.

[ Upstream commit 5b75c4973ce779520b9d1e392483207d6f842cde ] This patch adds a limit for nframes as the number of frames in TX_SETUP and RX_SETUP are derived from a single byte multiplex value by default. Use-cases that would require to send/filter more than 256 CAN frames should be implemented in userspace for complexity reasons anyway.

2010-08-13arp_notify: allow drivers to explicitly request a notification event.Ian Campbell
commit 06c4648d46d1b757d6b9591a86810be79818b60c upstream. Currently such notifications are only generated when the device comes up or the address changes. However one use case for these notifications is to enable faster network recovery after a virtual machine migration (by causing switches to relearn their MAC tables). A migration appears to the network stack as a temporary loss of carrier and therefore does not trigger either of the current conditions. Rather than adding carrier up as a trigger (which can cause issues when interfaces a flapping) simply add an interface which the driver can use to explicitly trigger the notification.

commit bf988435bd5b53529f4408a8efb1f433f6ddfda9 upstream. struct ethtool_rxnfc was originally defined in 2.6.27 for the ETHTOOL_{G,S}RXFH command with only the cmd, flow_type and data fields. It was then extended in 2.6.30 to support various additional commands. These commands should have been defined to use a new structure, but it is too late to change that now.

2010-08-02ipvs: Add missing locking during connection table hashing and unhashingSven Wegener
commit aea9d711f3d68c656ad31ab578ecfb0bb5cd7f97 upstream. The code that hashes and unhashes connections from the connection table is missing locking of the connection being modified, which opens up a race condition and results in memory corruption when this race condition is hit. Here is what happens in pretty verbose form: CPU 0 CPU 1 ------------ ------------ An active connection is terminated and we schedule ip_vs_conn_expire() on this CPU to expire this connection. IRQ assignment is changed to this CPU, but the expire timer stays scheduled on the other CPU. New connection from same ip:port comes in right before the timer expires, we find the inactive connection in our connection table and get a reference to it. We proper lock the connection in tcp_state_transition() and read the connection flags in set_tcp_state(). ip_vs_conn_expire() gets called, we unhash the connection from our connection table and remove the hashed flag in ip_vs_conn_unhash(), without proper locking! While still holding proper locks we write the connection flags in set_tcp_state() and this sets the hashed flag again. ip_vs_conn_expire() fails to expire the connection, because the other CPU has incremented the reference count. We try to re-insert the connection into our connection table, but this fails in ip_vs_conn_hash(), because the hashed flag has been set by the other CPU. We re-schedule execution of ip_vs_conn_expire(). Now this connection has the hashed flag set, but isn't actually hashed in our connection table and has a dangling list_head. We drop the reference we held on the connection and schedule the expire timer for timeouting the connection on this CPU. Further packets won't be able to find this connection in our connection table. ip_vs_conn_expire() gets called again, we think it's already hashed, but the list_head is dangling and while removing the connection from our connection table we write to the memory location where this list_head points to. The result will probably be a kernel oops at some other point in time. This race condition is pretty subtle, but it can be triggered remotely. It needs the IRQ assignment change or another circumstance where packets coming from the same ip:port for the same service are being processed on different CPUs. And it involves hitting the exact time at which ip_vs_conn_expire() gets called. It can be avoided by making sure that all packets from one connection are always processed on the same CPU and can be made harder to exploit by changing the connection timeouts to some custom values.

2010-08-02net: fix problem in reading sock TX queueTom Herbert
commit b0f77d0eae0c58a5a9691a067ada112ceeae2d00 upstream. Fix problem in reading the tx_queue recorded in a socket. In dev_pick_tx, the TX queue is read by doing a check with sk_tx_queue_recorded on the socket, followed by a sk_tx_queue_get. The problem is that there is not mutual exclusion across these calls in the socket so it it is possible that the queue in the sock can be invalidated after sk_tx_queue_recorded is called so that sk_tx_queue get returns -1, which sets 65535 in queue_index and thus dev_pick_tx returns 65536 which is a bogus queue and can cause crash in dev_queue_xmit. We fix this by only calling sk_tx_queue_get which does the proper checks. The interface is that sk_tx_queue_get returns the TX queue if the sock argument is non-NULL and TX queue is recorded, else it returns -1. sk_tx_queue_recorded is no longer used so it can be completely removed.

Instead, only force strict mode when sk->sk_bound_dev_if is set on the calling socket, getting the intended behavior and fixing the regression.

2010-08-02gro: Fix bogus gso_size on the first fraglist entryHerbert Xu
[ Upstream commit 622e0ca1cd4d459f5af4f2c65f4dc0dd823cb4c3 ] When GRO produces fraglist entries, and the resulting skb hits an interface that is incapable of TSO but capable of FRAGLIST, we end up producing a bogus packet with gso_size non-zero. This was reported in the field with older versions of KVM that did not set the TSO bits on tuntap. This patch fixes that.

[ Upstream commit 25442e06d20aaba7d7b16438078a562b3e4cf19b ] It is common in end-node, non STP bridges to set forwarding delay to zero; which causes the forwarding database cleanup to run every clock tick. Change to run only as soon as needed or at next ageing timer interval which ever is sooner. Use round_jiffies_up macro rather than attempting round up by changing value.

2010-07-05mac80211: fix deauth before assocJohannes Berg
commit b054b747a694927879c94dd11af54d04346aed7d upstream. When we receive a deauthentication frame before having successfully associated, we neither print a message nor abort assocation. The former makes it hard to debug, while the latter later causes a warning in cfg80211 when, as will typically be the case, association timed out. This warning was reported by many, e.g. in https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15981, but I couldn't initially pinpoint it. I verified the fix by hacking hostapd to send a deauth frame instead of an association response.

2010-07-05mac80211: fix rts threshold checkShanyu Zhao
commit a2c40249a36d0b4d76d1caf6bf806e4ae5b06e8a upstream. Currently whenever rts thresold is set, every packet will use RTS protection no matter its size exceeds the threshold or not. This is due to a bug in the rts threshold check. if (len > tx->local->hw.wiphy->rts_threshold) { txrc.rts = rts = true; } Basically it is comparing an int (len) and a u32 (rts_threshold), and the variable len is assigned as: len = min_t(int, tx->skb->len + FCS_LEN, tx->local->hw.wiphy->frag_threshold); However, when frag_threshold is "-1", len is always "-1", which is 0xffffffff therefore rts is always set to true.

2010-07-05mac80211: give warning if building w/out rate ctrl algorithmAndres Salomon
commit c2ef355bf3ef0b8006b96128726684fba47ac928 upstream. I discovered that if EMBEDDED=y, one can accidentally build a mac80211 stack and drivers w/ no rate control algorithm. For drivers like RTL8187 that don't supply their own RC algorithms, this will cause ieee80211_register_hw to fail (making the driver unusable). This will tell kconfig to provide a warning if no rate control algorithms have been selected. That'll at least warn the user; users that know that their drivers supply a rate control algorithm can safely ignore the warning, and those who don't know (or who expect to be using multiple drivers) can select a default RC algorithm.

Now we have a set of nested attributes: IFLA_VFINFO_LIST (NESTED) IFLA_VF_INFO (NESTED) IFLA_VF_MAC IFLA_VF_VLAN IFLA_VF_TX_RATE This allows a single set to operate on multiple attributes if desired. Among other things, it means a dump can be replayed to set state. The current interface has yet to be released, so this seems like something to consider for 2.6.34.

2010-05-10IPv4: unresolved multicast route cleanupAndreas Meissner
Fixes the expiration timer for unresolved multicast route entries. In case new multicast routing requests come in faster than the expiration timeout occurs (e.g. zap through multicast TV streams), the timer is prevented from being called at time for already existing entries. As the single timer is resetted to default whenever a new entry is made, the timeout for existing unresolved entires are missed and/or not updated. As a consequence new requests are denied when the limit of unresolved entries has been reached because old entries live longer than they are supposed to. The solution is to reset the timer only for the first unresolved entry in the multicast routing cache. All other timers are already set and updated correctly within the timer function itself by now.

Then we start that process, but the AP doesn't respond. While we're still waiting for an AP response, userspace asks for a deauth. We do the deauth, but don't abort the association work. Then once the association work times out we tell cfg80211, but it no longer wants to know since for all it is concerned we accepted the deauth that also kills the association attempt. Fix this by, upon receipt of deauth request, removing the association work and continuing to send the deauth. Unfortunately the user reporting the issue is not able to reproduce this problem anymore and cannot verify this fix. This seems like a well understood issue though and I thus present the patch.
