net: Automatically allocate per namespace data.

To get the full benefit of batched network namespace cleanup netowrk
device deletion needs to be performed by the generic code.  When
using register_pernet_gen_device and freeing the data in exit_net
it is impossible to delay allocation until after exit_net has called
as the device uninit methods are no longer safe.

To correct this, and to simplify working with per network namespace data
I have moved allocation and deletion of per network namespace data into
the network namespace core.  The core now frees the data only after
all of the network namespace exit routines have run.

in the pernet_operations structure if you want network namespace
data to be managed for you automatically.

This makes the current register_pernet_gen_device and
register_pernet_gen_subsys routines unnecessary.  For the moment
I have left them as compatibility wrappers in net_namespace.h

It is fairly common to kill several network namespaces at once.  Either
because they are nested one inside the other or because they are cooperating
in multiple machine networking experiments.  As the network stack control logic
does not parallelize easily batch up multiple network namespaces existing
together.

To get the full benefit of batching the virtual network devices to be
removed must be all removed in one batch.  For that purpose I have added
a loop after the last network device operations have run that batches
up all remaining network devices and deletes them.

An extra benefit is that the reorganization slightly shrinks the size
of the per network namespace data structures replaceing a work_struct
with a list_head.

In a trivial test with 4K namespaces this change reduced the cost of
a destroying 4K namespaces from 7+ minutes (at 12% cpu) to 44 seconds

MIPS: Loongson: Disallow 4kB pages

Currently, with PAGE_SIZE_4KB, the kernel for loongson will hang on:

Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init!

The possible reason is the cache aliases problem:

Loongson 2F has 64kb, 4 way L1 Cache, the way size is 16kb, which is bigger
then 4kb. so, If using 4kb page size, there is cache aliases problem.
To avoid this kind of problem, extra cache flushing.  The 2nd possible
solution is 16kb page size which avoids cache aliases without the need for
extra cache flushes.  So we disable 4kB pages until the aliasing issue is
solved.

USB: EHCI: don't send Clear-TT-Buffer following a STALL

This patch (as1304) fixes a regression in ehci-hcd.  Evidently some
hubs don't handle Clear-TT-Buffer requests correctly, so we should
avoid sending them when they don't appear to be absolutely necessary.
The reported symptom is that output on a downstream audio device cuts
out because the hub stops relaying isochronous packets.

The patch prevents Clear-TT-Buffer requests from being sent following
a STALL handshake.  In theory a STALL indicates either that the
downstream device sent a STALL or that no matching TT buffer could be
found.  In either case, the transfer is completed and the TT buffer
does not remain busy, so it doesn't need to be cleared.

Also, the patch fixes a minor flaw in the code that actually sends the
Clear-TT-Buffer requests.  Although the pipe direction isn't really
used for control transfers, it should be a Send rather than a Receive.

15 years agojffs2: Fix memory corruption in jffs2_read_inode_range()

jffs2: Fix memory corruption in jffs2_read_inode_range()

In 2.6.23 kernel, commit a32ea1e1f925399e0d81ca3f7394a44a6dafa12c
("Fix read/truncate race") fixed a race in the generic code, and as a
side effect, now do_generic_file_read() can ask us to readpage() past
the i_size. This seems to be correctly handled by the block routines
(e.g. block_read_full_page() fills the page with zeroes in case if
somebody is trying to read past the last inode's block).

JFFS2 doesn't handle this; it assumes that it won't be asked to read
pages which don't exist -- and thus that there will be at least _one_
valid 'frag' on the page it's being asked to read. It will fill any
holes with the following memset:

  memset(buf, 0, min(end, frag->ofs + frag->size) - offset);

When the 'closest smaller match' returned by jffs2_lookup_node_frag() is
actually on a previous page and ends before 'offset', that results in:

  memset(buf, 0, <huge unsigned negative>);

Hopefully, in most cases the corruption is fatal, and quickly causing
random oopses, like this:

This patch fixes the issue, plus fixes all LTP tests on NAND/UBI with
JFFS2 filesystem that were failing since 2.6.23 (seems like the bug
above also broke the truncation).

      mac80211: A-MPDU Tx add delBA from recipient support

The first problem is that I moved a BUG_ON before various
checks -- thereby making it possible to hit. As the comment
indicates, the BUG_ON can be removed since the ampdu_action
callback must already exist when the state is != IDLE.

The second problem isn't easily exploitable but there's a
race condition due to unconditionally setting the state to
OPERATIONAL when a delBA frame is received, even when no
aggregation session was ever initiated. All the drivers
accept stopping the session even then, but that opens a
race window where crashes could happen before the driver
accepts it. Right now, a WARN_ON may happen with non-HT
drivers, while the race opens only for HT drivers.

For this case, there are two things necessary to fix it:
 1) don't process spurious delBA frames, and be more careful
    about the session state; don't drop the lock

 2) HT drivers need to be prepared to handle a session stop
    even before the session was really started -- this is
    true for all drivers (that support aggregation) but
    iwlwifi which can be fixed easily. The other HT drivers
    (ath9k and ar9170) are behaving properly already.
