2009-03-04netlink: Move netlink attribute parsing support to libGeert Uytterhoeven
Netlink attribute parsing may be used even if CONFIG_NET is not set. Move it from net/netlink to lib and control its inclusion based on the new config symbol CONFIG_NLATTR, which is selected by CONFIG_NET.

2009-02-12wimax: fix oops in wimax_dev_get_by_genl_info() when looking up non-wimax ifaceInaky Perez-Gonzalez
When a non-wimax interface is looked up by the stack, a bad pointer is returned when the looked-up interface is not found in the list (of registered WiMAX interfaces). This causes an oops in the caller when trying to use the pointer. Fix by properly setting the pointer to NULL if we don't exit from the list_for_each() with a found entry.

2009-02-12net: 4 bytes kernel memory disclosure in SO_BSDCOMPAT gsopt try #2Clément Lecigne
In function sock_getsockopt() located in net/core/sock.c, optval v.val is not correctly initialized and directly returned in userland in case we have SO_BSDCOMPAT option set. This dummy code should trigger the bug: int main(void) { unsigned char buf[4] = { 0, 0, 0, 0 }; int len; int sock; sock = socket(33, 2, 2); getsockopt(sock, 1, SO_BSDCOMPAT, &buf, &len); printf("%x%x%x%x\n", buf[0], buf[1], buf[2], buf[3]); close(sock); } Here is a patch that fix this bug by initalizing v.val just after its declaration.

2009-02-11mac80211: restrict to AP in outgoing interface heuristicJohannes Berg
We try to find the correct outgoing interface for injected frames based on the TA, but since this is a hack for hostapd 11w, restrict the heuristic to AP mode interfaces. At some point we'll add the ability to give an interface index in radiotap or so and just remove this heuristic again.

As the mmap handler gets called under mmap_sem, and we may grab mmap_sem elsewhere under the socket lock to access user data, we should avoid grabbing the socket lock in the mmap handler. Since the only thing we care about in the mmap handler is for pg_vec* to be invariant, i.e., to exclude packet_set_ring, we can achieve this by simply using a new mutex.

As reported by Toralf Förster and Randy Dunlap. - http://linuxwimax.org/pipermail/wimax/2009-January/000460.html - http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/1/29/279 The definitions needed for the wimax stack and i2400m driver debug infrastructure was, by mistake, compiled depending on CONFIG_DEBUG_FS (by them being placed in the debugfs.c files); thus the build broke in 2.6.29-rc3 when debugging was enabled (CONFIG_WIMAX_DEBUG) and DEBUG_FS was disabled. These definitions are always needed if debug is enabled at compile time (independently of DEBUG_FS being or not enabled), so moving them to a file that is always compiled fixes the issue.

It oopsd for me in skb_seq_read. addr2line said it was linux-2.6/net/core/skbuff.c:2228, which is this line: while (st->frag_idx < skb_shinfo(st->cur_skb)->nr_frags) { I added some printks in there and it looks like we hit this: } else if (st->root_skb == st->cur_skb && skb_shinfo(st->root_skb)->frag_list) { st->cur_skb = skb_shinfo(st->root_skb)->frag_list; st->frag_idx = 0; goto next_skb; } Actually I did some testing and added a few printks and found that the st->cur_skb->data was 0 and hence the ptr used by iscsi_tcp was null. This caused the kernel panic. if (abs_offset < block_limit) { - *data = st->cur_skb->data + abs_offset; + *data = st->cur_skb->data + (abs_offset - st->stepped_offset); I enabled the debug_tcp and with a few printks found that the code did not go to the next_skb label and could find that the sequence being followed was this - It hit this if condition - if (st->cur_skb->next) { st->cur_skb = st->cur_skb->next; st->frag_idx = 0; goto next_skb; And so, now the st pointer is shifted to the next skb whereas actually it should have hit the second else if first since the data is in the frag_list. else if (st->root_skb == st->cur_skb && skb_shinfo(st->root_skb)->frag_list) { st->cur_skb = skb_shinfo(st->root_skb)->frag_list; goto next_skb; } Reversing the two conditions the attached patch fixes the issue for me on top of Herbert's patches.

This patch fixes the xfrm reverse flow lookup for icmp6 so that icmp6 packets don't get lost over ipsec tunnels. Similar patch is in RHEL5 kernel for a quite long time and I do not see why it isn't in mainline.

2009-01-26tcp: Fix length tcp_splice_data_recv passes to skb_splice_bits.Dimitris Michailidis
tcp_splice_data_recv has two lengths to consider: the len parameter it gets from tcp_read_sock, which specifies the amount of data in the skb, and rd_desc->count, which is the amount of data the splice caller still wants. Currently it passes just the latter to skb_splice_bits, which then splices min(rd_desc->count, skb->len - offset) bytes. Most of the time this is fine, except when the skb contains urgent data. In that case len goes only up to the urgent byte and is less than skb->len - offset. By ignoring len tcp_splice_data_recv may a) splice data tcp_read_sock told it not to, b) return to tcp_read_sock a value > len. Now, tcp_read_sock doesn't handle used > len and leaves the socket in a bad state (both sk_receive_queue and copied_seq are bad at that point) resulting in duplicated data and corruption. Fix by passing min(rd_desc->count, len) to skb_splice_bits. Signed-off-by: Dimitris Michailidis <dm@chelsio.com> Acked-by: Eric Dumazet <dada1@cosmosbay.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2009-01-26udp: optimize bind(0) if many ports are in useEric Dumazet
commit 9088c5609584684149f3fb5b065aa7f18dcb03ff (udp: Improve port randomization) introduced a regression for UDP bind() syscall to null port (getting a random port) in case lot of ports are already in use. This is because we do about 28000 scans of very long chains (220 sockets per chain), with many spin_lock_bh()/spin_unlock_bh() calls. Fix this using a bitmap (64 bytes for current value of UDP_HTABLE_SIZE) so that we scan chains at most once. Instead of 250 ms per bind() call, we get after patch a time of 2.9 ms Based on a report from Vitaly Mayatskikh Reported-by: Vitaly Mayatskikh <v.mayatskih@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <dada1@cosmosbay.com> Tested-by: Vitaly Mayatskikh <v.mayatskih@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2009-01-26vlan: Export symbols as non GPL symbols.Ben Greear
In previous kernels, any kernel module could get access to the 'real-device' and the VLAN-ID for a particular VLAN. In more recent kernels, the code was restructured such that this is hard to do without accessing private .h files for any module that cannot use GPL-only symbols. Attached is a patch to once again allow non-GPL modules the ability to access the real-device and VLAN id for VLANs.

2009-01-22sctp: Fix another socket race during accept/peeloffVlad Yasevich
There is a race between sctp_rcv() and sctp_accept() where we have moved the association from the listening socket to the accepted socket, but sctp_rcv() processing cached the old socket and continues to use it. The easy solution is to check for the socket mismatch once we've grabed the socket lock. If we hit a mis-match, that means that were are currently holding the lock on the listening socket, but the association is refrencing a newly accepted socket. We need to drop the lock on the old socket and grab the lock on the new one. A more proper solution might be to create accepted sockets when the new association is established, similar to TCP. That would eliminate the race for 1-to-1 style sockets, but it would still existing for 1-to-many sockets where a user wished to peeloff an association. For now, we'll live with this easy solution as it addresses the problem.

2009-01-22sctp: Properly timestamp outgoing data chunks for rtx purposesVlad Yasevich
Recent changes to the retransmit code exposed a long standing bug where it was possible for a chunk to be time stamped after the retransmit timer was reset. This caused a rare situation where the retrnamist timer has expired, but nothing was marked for retrnasmission because all of timesamps on data were less then 1 rto ago. As result, the timer was never restarted since nothing was retransmitted, and this resulted in a hung association that did couldn't complete the data transfer. The solution is to timestamp the chunk when it's added to the packet for transmission purposes. After the packet is trsnmitted the rtx timer is restarted. This guarantees that when the timer expires, there will be data to retransmit. Signed-off-by: Vlad Yasevich <vladislav.yasevich@hp.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
