UNIX: Do not loop forever at unix_autobind().

We assumed that unix_autobind() never fails if kzalloc() succeeded.
But unix_autobind() allows only 1048576 names. If /proc/sys/fs/file-max is
larger than 1048576 (e.g. systems with more than 10GB of RAM), a local user can

This patch adds a loop counter in order to give up after 1048576 attempts.

Calling yield() for once per 256 attempts may not be sufficient when many names
are already in use, for __unix_find_socket_byname() can take long time under

3c59x: Fix deadlock in vortex_error()

This fixes a bug introduced in commit
de847272149365363a6043a963a6f42fb91566e2
"3c59x: Use fine-grained locks for MII and windowed register access".

vortex_interrupt() holds vp->window_lock over multiple register
accesses to reduce locking overhead.  However it also needs to call
vortex_error() sometimes, and that uses the regular functions for
access to windowed registers, which will try to acquire window_lock
again.

Therefore, drop window_lock around the call to vortex_error() and set
the window afterward reacquiring the lock.  Since vortex_error() may
call vortex_rx(), which *does* require its caller to hold window_lock,
lift that call up into vortex_interrupt().  This also removes the
potential for calling vortex_rx() on a later-generation NIC.

net: fix tx queue selection for bridged devices implementing select_queue

a bridge, frames coming from the bridge already have a tx queue associated
to the socket (introduced in commit a4ee3ce3293dc931fab19beb472a8bde1295aebe,
"net: Use sk_tx_queue_mapping for connected sockets"). The call to
sk_tx_queue_get will then return the tx queue used by the bridge instead
of calling the select_queue callback.

In case of mac80211 this broke QoS which is implemented by using the
select_queue callback. Furthermore it introduced problems with rt2x00
because frames with the same TID and RA sometimes appeared on different
tx queues which the hw cannot handle correctly.

Fix this by always calling select_queue first if it is available and only

skb_segment() makes the false assumption headrooms of fragments are same

skb_gro_receive() uses netdev_alloc_skb(headroom + skb_gro_offset(p)) to
allocate a fresh skb. This adds NET_SKB_PAD to a padding already
provided by netdevice, depending on various things, like copybreak.

Use alloc_skb() to allocate an exact padding, to reduce cache line

The 5 GHz CTL indexes were not being read for all hardware

wireless extensions: fix kernel heap content leak

Wireless extensions have an unfortunate, undocumented
requirement which requires drivers to always fill
iwp->length when returning a successful status. When
a driver doesn't do this, it leads to a kernel heap
content leak when userspace offers a larger buffer
than would have been necessary.

Arguably, this is a driver bug, as it should, if it
returns 0, fill iwp->length, even if it separately
indicated that the buffer contents was not valid.

However, we can also at least avoid the memory content
leak if the driver doesn't do this by setting the iwp
length to max_tokens, which then reflects how big the
buffer is that the driver may fill, regardless of how
big the userspace buffer is.

To illustrate the point, this patch also fixes a
corresponding cfg80211 bug (since this requirement
isn't documented nor was ever pointed out by anyone
during code review, I don't trust all drivers nor
all cfg80211 handlers to implement it correctly).

The bigger a page is, the less tcp_max_orphans is : 4096 on a 512GB
machine in Anton's case.

(tcp_hashinfo.bhash_size * sizeof(struct inet_bind_hashbucket))
is much bigger if spinlock debugging is on. Its wrong to select bigger
limits in this case (where kernel structures are also bigger)

bhash_size max is 65536, and we get this value even for small machines.

A better ground is to use size of ehash table, this also makes code
shorter and more obvious.

phylib: Fix race between returning phydev and calling adjust_link

It is possible that phylib will call adjust_link before returning
from {,of_}phy_connect(), which may cause the following [very rare,
though] oops upon reopening the device:

  [c0d25f30] [c036c158] phy_state_machine+0x3ac/0x554
  [...]

Here is why. Drivers store phydev in their private structures, e.g.
gianfar driver:

static int init_phy(struct net_device *dev)
{
...
priv->phydev = of_phy_connect(...);
...
}

So that adjust_link could retrieve it back:

static void adjust_link(struct net_device *dev)
{
...
struct phy_device *phydev = priv->phydev;
...
}

If the device has been opened before, then phydev->state is set to
PHY_HALTED (or undefined if the driver didn't call phy_stop()).

Now, phy_connect starts the PHY state machine before returning phydev to
the driver:

phy_start_machine(phydev, NULL);

if (phydev->irq > 0)
phy_start_interrupts(phydev);

return phydev;

The time between 'phy_start_machine()' and 'return phydev' is undefined.
The start machine routine delays execution for 1 second, which is enough
for most cases. But under heavy load, or if you're unlucky, it is quite
possible that PHY state machine will execute before phy_connect()
returns, and so adjust_link callback will try to dereference phydev,
which is not yet ready.

To fix the issue, simply initialize the PHY's state to PHY_READY during
phy_attach(). This will ensure that phylib won't call adjust_link before
phy_start().

3c59x: Fix deadlock between boomerang_interrupt and boomerang_start_tx

If netconsole is in use, there is a possibility for deadlock in 3c59x between
boomerang_interrupt and boomerang_start_xmit.  Both routines take the vp->lock,
and if netconsole is in use, a pr_* call from the boomerang_interrupt routine
will result in the netconsole code attempting to trnasmit an skb, which can try
to take the same spin lock, resulting in deadlock.

The fix is pretty straightforward.  This patch allocats a bit in the 3c59x
private structure to indicate that its handling an interrupt.  If we get into
the transmit routine and that bit is set, we can be sure that we have recursed
and will deadlock if we continue, so instead we just return NETDEV_TX_BUSY, so

ehea: Fix synchronization between HW and SW send queue

ehea: Fix synchronization between HW and SW send queue

When memory is added to / removed from a partition via the Memory DLPAR
mechanism, the eHEA driver has to do a couple of things to reflect the
memory change in its own IO address translation tables. This involves
stopping and restarting the HW queues.
During this operation, it is possible that HW and SW pointer into these
queues get out of sync. This results in a situation where packets that
are attached to a send queue are not transmitted immediately, but
delayed until further X packets have been put on the queue.

This patch detects such loss of synchronization, and resets the ehea
port when needed.

    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.

ath5k: disable ASPM L0s for all cards

Atheros PCIe wireless cards handled by ath5k do require L0s disabled.
For distributions shipping with CONFIG_PCIEASPM (this will be enabled
by default in the future in 2.6.36) this will also mean both L1 and L0s
will be disabled when a pre 1.1 PCIe device is detected. We do know L1
works correctly even for all ath5k pre 1.1 PCIe devices though but cannot
currently undue the effect of a blacklist, for details you can read
pcie_aspm_sanity_check() and see how it adjusts the device link
capability.

It may be possible in the future to implement some PCI API to allow
drivers to override blacklists for pre 1.1 PCIe but for now it is
best to accept that both L0s and L1 will be disabled completely for
distributions shipping with CONFIG_PCIEASPM rather than having this
issue present. Motivation for adding this new API will be to help
with power consumption for some of these devices.

Example of issues you'd see:

  - On the Acer Aspire One (AOA150, Atheros Communications Inc. AR5001
    Wireless Network Adapter [168c:001c] (rev 01)) doesn't work well
    with ASPM enabled, the card will eventually stall on heavy traffic
    with often 'unsupported jumbo' warnings appearing. Disabling
    ASPM L0s in ath5k fixes these problems.

  - On the same card you would see a storm of RXORN interrupts
    even though medium is idle.

14 years agoath9k_htc: Fix disconnect issue in HT40 mode.

ath9k_htc: Fix disconnect issue in HT40 mode.

Some APs advertise that they may be HT40 capable in the capabilites
but the current operating channel configuration may be only HT20.
This causes disconnection as ath9k_htc sets WLAN_RC_40_FLAG despite
the AP operating in HT20 mode.
Hence set this flag only if the current channel configuration
is HT40 enabled.

ctcm: rename READ/WRITE defines to avoid redefinitions

READ/WRITE seems to be a bit too generic for defines in a device
driver. Just rename them to CTCM_READ/CTCM_WRITE to avoid warnings.
