2007-04-26[NET] tun/tap: fixed hw address handlingBrian Braunstein
Fixed tun/tap driver's handling of hw addresses. The hw address is stored in both the net_device.dev_addr and tun.dev_addr fields. These fields were not kept synchronized, and in fact weren't even initialized to the same value. Now during both init and when performing SIOCSIFHWADDR on the tun device these values are both updated. However, if SIOCSIFHWADDR is performed on the net device directly (for instance, setting the hw address using ifconfig), the tun device does not get updated. Perhaps the tun.dev_addr field should be removed completely at some point, as it is redundant and net_device.dev_addr can be used anywhere it is used.

2007-04-25[PPPOE]: Fix device tear-down notification.Michal Ostrowski
pppoe_flush_dev() kicks all sockets bound to a device that is going down. In doing so, locks must be taken in the right order consistently (sock lock, followed by the pppoe_hash_lock). However, the scan process is based on us holding the sock lock. So, when something is found in the scan we must release the lock we're holding and grab the sock lock. This patch fixes race conditions between this code and pppoe_release(), both of which perform similar functions but would naturally prefer to grab locks in opposing orders. Both code paths are now going after these locks in a consistent manner. pppoe_hash_lock protects the contents of the "pppox_sock" objects that reside inside the hash. Thus, NULL'ing out the pppoe_dev field should be done under the protection of this lock. Signed-off-by: Michal Ostrowski <mostrows@earthlink.net> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2007-04-25[PPPOE]: memory leak when socket is release()d before PPPIOCGCHAN has been ↵Florian Zumbiehl
called on it below you find a patch that fixes a memory leak when a PPPoE socket is release()d after it has been connect()ed, but before the PPPIOCGCHAN ioctl ever has been called on it. This is somewhat of a security problem, too, since PPPoE sockets can be created by any user, so any user can easily allocate all the machine's RAM to non-swappable address space and thus DoS the system. Is there any specific reason for PPPoE sockets being available to any unprivileged process, BTW? After all, you need a packet socket for the discovery stage anyway, so it's unlikely that any unprivileged process will ever need to create a PPPoE socket, no? Allocating all session IDs for a known AC is a kind of DoS, too, after all - with Juniper ERXes, this is really easy, actually, since they don't ever assign session ids above 8000 ...

2007-04-25[PPPOE]: race between interface going down and connect()Florian Zumbiehl
below you find a patch that (hopefully) fixes a race between an interface going down and a connect() to a peer on that interface. Before, connect() would determine that an interface is up, then the interface could go down and all entries referring to that interface in the item_hash_table would be marked as ZOMBIEs and their references to the device would be freed, and after that, connect() would put a new entry into the hash table referring to the device that meanwhile is down already - which also would cause unregister_netdevice() to wait until the socket has been release()d. This patch does not suffice if we are not allowed to accept connect()s referring to a device that we already acked a NETDEV_GOING_DOWN for (that is: all references are only guaranteed to be freed after NETDEV_DOWN has been acknowledged, not necessarily after the NETDEV_GOING_DOWN already). And if we are allowed to, we could avoid looking through the hash table upon NETDEV_GOING_DOWN completely and only do that once we get the NETDEV_DOWN ... mostrows: pppoe_flush_dev is called on NETDEV_GOING_DOWN and NETDEV_DOWN to deal with this "late connect" issue. Ideally one would hope to notify users at the "NETDEV_GOING_DOWN" phase (just to pretend to be nice). However, it is the NETDEV_DOWN scan that takes all the responsibility for ensuring nobody is hanging around at that time.

2007-04-25[NETDRV]: Perform missing csum_offset conversionsHerbert Xu
When csum_offset was introduced we did a conversion from csum to csum_offset where applicable. A couple of drivers were missed in this process. It was harmless to begin with since the two fields coincided. Now that we've made them different with the addition of csum_start, the missed drivers must be converted or they can't send packets out at all that require checksum offload.

2007-04-25[NET]: Inline net_device_statsRusty Russell
Network drivers which keep stats allocate their own stats structure then write a get_stats() function to return them. It would be nice if this were done by default. 1) Add a new "stats" field to "struct net_device". 2) Add a new feature field to say "this driver uses the internal one" 3) Have a default "get_stats" which returns NULL if that feature not set. 4) Change callers to check result of get_stats call for NULL, not if ->get_stats is set. This should not break backwards compatibility with older drivers, yet allow modern drivers to shed some boilerplate code. Lightly tested: works for a modified lguest network driver.
