2007-06-28[NETPOLL] netconsole: fix soft lockup when removing moduleJarek Poplawski
#1 Until kernel ver. 2.6.21 (including) cancel_rearming_delayed_work() required a work function should always (unconditionally) rearm with delay > 0 - otherwise it would endlessly loop. This patch replaces this function with cancel_delayed_work(). Later kernel versions don't require this, so here it's only for uniformity. #2 After deleting a timer in cancel_[rearming_]delayed_work() there could stay a last skb queued in npinfo->txq causing a memory leak after kfree(npinfo).

2007-06-27[NETPOLL]: tx lock deadlock fixStephen Hemminger
If sky2 device poll routine is called from netpoll_send_skb, it would deadlock. The netpoll_send_skb held the netif_tx_lock, and the poll routine could acquire it to clean up skb's. Other drivers might use same locking model. The driver is correct, netpoll should not introduce more locking problems than it causes already. So change the code to drop lock before calling poll handler. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@linux.foundation.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2007-06-23[NET]: Make skb_seq_read unmap the last fragmentOlaf Kirch
Having walked through the entire skbuff, skb_seq_read would leave the last fragment mapped. As a consequence, the unwary caller would leak kmaps, and proceed with preempt_count off by one. The only (kind of non-intuitive) workaround is to use skb_seq_read_abort. This patch makes sure skb_seq_read always unmaps frag_data after having cycled through the skb's paged part.

2007-06-03[NET] gso: Fix GSO feature mask in sk_setup_capsHerbert Xu
This isn't a bug just yet as only TCP uses sk_setup_caps for GSO. However, if and when UDP or something else starts using it this is likely to cause a problem if we forget to add software emulation for it at the same time. The problem is that right now we translate GSO emulation to the bitmask NETIF_F_GSO_MASK, which includes every protocol, even ones that we cannot emulate. This patch makes it provide only the ones that we can emulate. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2007-05-31[NET]: parse ip:port strings correctly in in4_ptonJerome Borsboom
in4_pton converts a textual representation of an ip4 address into an integer representation. However, when the textual representation is of in the form ip:port, e.g. 192.168.1.1:5060, and 'delim' is set to -1, the function bails out with an error when reading the colon. It makes sense to allow the colon as a delimiting character without explicitly having to set it through the 'delim' variable as there can be no ambiguity in the point where the ip address is completely parsed. This function is indeed called from nf_conntrack_sip.c in this way to parse textual ip:port combinations which fails due to the reason stated above.

2007-05-24[XFRM]: Allow packet drops during larval state resolution.David S. Miller
The current IPSEC rule resolution behavior we have does not work for a lot of people, even though technically it's an improvement from the -EAGAIN buisness we had before. Right now we'll block until the key manager resolves the route. That works for simple cases, but many folks would rather packets get silently dropped until the key manager resolves the IPSEC rules. We can't tell these folks to "set the socket non-blocking" because they don't have control over the non-block setting of things like the sockets used to resolve DNS deep inside of the resolver libraries in libc. With that in mind I coded up the patch below with some help from Herbert Xu which provides packet-drop behavior during larval state resolution, controllable via sysctl and off by default. This lays the framework to either: 1) Make this default at some point or... 2) Move this logic into xfrm{4,6}_policy.c and implement the ARP-like resolution queue we've all been dreaming of. The idea would be to queue packets to the policy, then once the larval state is resolved by the key manager we re-resolve the route and push the packets out. The packets would timeout if the rule didn't get resolved in a certain amount of time. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2007-05-24[NET]: "wrong timeout value" in sk_wait_data() v2Vasily Averin
sys_setsockopt() do not check properly timeout values for SO_RCVTIMEO/SO_SNDTIMEO, for example it's possible to set negative timeout values. POSIX do not defines behaviour for sys_setsockopt in case negative timeouts, but requires that setsockopt() shall fail with -EDOM if the send and receive timeout values are too big to fit into the timeout fields in the socket structure. In current implementation negative timeout can lead to error messages like "schedule_timeout: wrong timeout value". Proposed patch: - checks tv_usec and returns -EDOM if it is wrong - do not allows to set negative timeout values (sets 0 instead) and outputs ratelimited information message about such attempts.

2007-05-22[RTNETLINK]: Allow changing of subsets of netdevice flags in rtnl_setlinkPatrick McHardy
rtnl_setlink doesn't allow to change subsets of the flags, just to override the set entirely by a new one. This means that for simply setting a device up or down userspace first needs to query the current flags, change it and send the changed flags back, which is racy and needlessly complicated. Mask the flags using ifi_change since this is what it is intended for. For backwards compatibility treat ifi_change == 0 as ~0 (even though it seems quite unlikely that anyone has been using this so far).

2007-05-19[NET]: Fix race condition about network device name allocation.Stephen Hemminger
Kenji Kaneshige found this race between device removal and registration. On unregister it is possible for the old device to exist, because sysfs file is still open. A new device with 'eth%d' will select the same name, but sysfs kobject register will fial. The following changes the shutdown order slightly. It hold a removes the sysfs entries earlier (on unregister_netdevice), but holds a kobject reference. Then when todo runs the actual last put free happens.

2007-05-10[NET] link_watch: Always schedule urgent eventsHerbert Xu
Urgent events may be delayed if we already have a non-urgent event queued for that device. This patch changes this by making sure that an urgent event is always looked at immediately. I've replaced the LW_RUNNING flag by LW_URGENT since whether work is scheduled is already kept track by the work queue system. The only complication is that we have to provide some exclusion for the setting linkwatch_nextevent which is available in the actual work function.

2007-05-10[NET] link_watch: Eliminate potential delay on wrap-aroundHerbert Xu
When the jiffies wrap around or when the system boots up for the first time, down events can be delayed indefinitely since we no longer update linkwatch_nextevent when only urgent events are processed.

2007-05-10[NET]: Remove link_watch delay for up even when we're downHerbert Xu
Currently all link carrier events are delayed by up to a second before they're processed to prevent link storms. This causes unnecessary packet loss during that interval. In fact, we can achieve the same effect in preventing storms by only delaying down events and unnecssary up events. The latter is defined as up events when we're already up.

2007-05-10[NET] link_watch: Move link watch list into net_deviceHerbert Xu
These days the link watch mechanism is an integral part of the network subsystem as it manages the carrier status. So it now makes sense to allocate some memory for it in net_device rather than allocating it on demand. In fact, this is necessary because we can't tolerate a memory allocation failure since that means we'd have to potentially throw a link up event away. It also simplifies the code greatly. In doing so I discovered a subtle race condition in the use of singleevent. This race condition still exists (and is somewhat magnified) without singleevent but it's now plugged thanks to an smp_mb__before_clear_bit.

2007-05-09Add suspend-related notifications for CPU hotplugRafael J. Wysocki
Since nonboot CPUs are now disabled after tasks and devices have been frozen and the CPU hotplug infrastructure is used for this purpose, we need special CPU hotplug notifications that will help the CPU-hotplug-aware subsystems distinguish normal CPU hotplug events from CPU hotplug events related to a system-wide suspend or resume operation in progress. This patch introduces such notifications and causes them to be used during suspend and resume transitions. It also changes all of the CPU-hotplug-aware subsystems to take these notifications into consideration (for now they are handled in the same way as the corresponding "normal" ones).

2007-04-26[NET]: Clean up sk_buff walkers.Jean Delvare
I noticed recently that, in skb_checksum(), "offset" and "start" are essentially the same thing and have the same value throughout the function, despite being computed differently. Using a single variable allows some cleanups and makes the skb_checksum() function smaller, more readable, and presumably marginally faster. We appear to have many other "sk_buff walker" functions built on the exact same model, so the cleanup applies to them, too. Here is a list of the functions I found to be affected: net/appletalk/ddp.c:atalk_sum_skb() net/core/datagram.c:skb_copy_datagram_iovec() net/core/datagram.c:skb_copy_and_csum_datagram() net/core/skbuff.c:skb_copy_bits() net/core/skbuff.c:skb_store_bits() net/core/skbuff.c:skb_checksum() net/core/skbuff.c:skb_copy_and_csum_bit() net/core/user_dma.c:dma_skb_copy_datagram_iovec() net/xfrm/xfrm_algo.c:skb_icv_walk() net/xfrm/xfrm_algo.c:skb_to_sgvec() OTOH, I admit I'm a bit surprised, the cleanup is rather obvious so I'm really wondering if I am missing something.
