In order to avoid any future surprises of kernel panics due to jprobes function mismatches (as e.g. fixed in 4cb9d6ea: sctp: jsctp_sf_eat_sack: fix jprobes function signature mismatch), we should check both function types during build and scream loudly if they do not match. __same_type resolves to __builtin_types_compatible_p, which is 1 in case both types are the same and 0 otherwise, qualifiers are ignored. Tested by myself. Signed-off-by: Daniel Borkmann <dborkman@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Patch cef401de (net: fix possible wrong checksum generation) fixed wrong checksum calculation but it broke TSO by defining new GSO type but not a netdev feature for that type. net_gso_ok() would not allow hardware checksum/segmentation offload of such packets without the feature. Following patch fixes TSO and wrong checksum. This patch uses same logic that Eric Dumazet used. Patch introduces new flag SKBTX_SHARED_FRAG if at least one frag can be modified by the user. but SKBTX_SHARED_FRAG flag is kept in skb shared info tx_flags rather than gso_type. tx_flags is better compared to gso_type since we can have skb with shared frag without gso packet. It does not link SHARED_FRAG to GSO, So there is no need to define netdev feature for this. Signed-off-by: Pravin B Shelar <pshelar@nicira.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Andrey Vagin says: ==================== If a TCP socket will get live-migrated from one box to another the timestamps (which are typically ON) will get screwed up -- the new kernel will generate TS values that has nothing to do with what they were on dump. The solution is to yet again fix the kernel and put a "timestamp offset" on a socket. A socket offset is added in places where externally visible tcp timestamp option is parsed/initialized. Connections in the SYN_RECV state are not supported, global tcp_time_stamp is used for them, because repair mode doesn't support this state. In a future it can be implemented by the similar way as for TIME_WAIT sockets. For time-wait sockets offset is inhereted by a proper tcp_sock. A per-socket offset can be set only for sockets in repair mode. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

This functionality is used for restoring tcp sockets. A tcp timestamp depends on how long a system has been running, so it's differ for each host. The solution is to set a per-socket offset. A per-socket offset for a TIME_WAIT socket is inherited from a proper tcp socket. tcp_request_sock doesn't have a timestamp offset, because the repair mode for them are not implemented. Cc: "David S.

Paul Gortmaker says: ==================== Eric noticed that the handling of local u64 ethtool counters for this driver commonly found on Freescale ppc-32 boards was racy. However, before converting them over to atomic64_t, I noticed that an internal struct was being used to determine the offsets for exporting this data into the ethtool buffer, and in doing so, it assumed that the counters would always be u64. Rather than keep this implicit assumption, a simple code cleanup gets rid of the struct completely, and leaves less conversion sites. The alternative solution would have been to take advantage of the fact that the counters are all relating to error conditions, and hence make them internally u32. In doing so, we'd be assuming that U32_MAX of any particular error condition is highly unlikely. This might have made sense if any increments were in a hot path. Tested with "ethtool -S eth0" on sbc8548 board. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Dan Carpenter contacted me with some notes regarding some smatch warnings in the netpoll code, some of which I introduced with my recent netpoll locking fixes, some which were there prior. Specifically they were: net-next/net/core/netpoll.c:243 netpoll_poll_dev() warn: inconsistent returns mutex:&ni->dev_lock: locked (213,217) unlocked (210,243) net-next/net/core/netpoll.c:706 netpoll_neigh_reply() warn: potential pointer math issue ('skb_transport_header(send_skb)' is a 128 bit pointer) This patch corrects the locking imbalance (the first error), and adds some parenthesis to correct the second error.

I get the following build error on next-20130213 due to the following commit: commit f05de73b ("skbuff: create skb_panic() function and its wrappers"). It adds an argument called panic to a function that uses the BUG() macro which tries to call panic, but the argument masks the panic() function declaration, resulting in the following error (gcc 4.2.4): net/core/skbuff.c In function 'skb_panic': net/core/skbuff.c +126 : error: called object 'panic' is not a function This is fixed by renaming the argument to msg.

While looking at some asm dump for an unrelated change, Eric noticed in the following stats count increment code: 50b8: 81 3c 01 f8 lwz r9,504(r28) 50bc: 81 5c 01 fc lwz r10,508(r28) 50c0: 31 4a 00 01 addic r10,r10,1 50c4: 7d 29 01 94 addze r9,r9 50c8: 91 3c 01 f8 stw r9,504(r28) 50cc: 91 5c 01 fc stw r10,508(r28) that a 64 bit counter was used on ppc-32 without sync and hence the "ethtool -S" output was racy. Here we convert all the values to use atomic64_t so that the output will always be consistent.

The gfar_stats struct is only used in copying out data via ethtool. It is declared as the extra stats, followed by the rmon stats. However, the rmon stats are never actually ever used in the driver; instead the rmon data is a u32 register read that is cast directly into the ethtool buf. It seems the only reason rmon is in the struct at all is to give the offset(s) at which it should be exported into the ethtool buffer. But note gfar_stats doesn't contain a gfar_extra_stats as a substruct -- instead it contains a u64 array of equal element count. This implicitly means we have two independent declarations of what gfar_extra_stats really is. Rather than have this duality, we already have defines which give us the offset directly, and hence do not need the struct at all. Further, since we know the extra_stats is unconditionally always present, we can write it out to the ethtool buf 1st, and then optionally write out the rmon data. There is no need for two independent loops, both of which are simply copying out the extra_stats to buf offset zero. This also helps pave the way towards allowing the extra stats fields to be converted to atomic64_t values, without having their types directly influencing the ethtool stats export code (gfar_fill_stats) that expects to deal with u64.

Current act_police uses rate table computed by the "tc" userspace program, which has the following issue: The rate table has 256 entries to map packet lengths to token (time units). With TSO sized packets, the 256 entry granularity leads to loss/gain of rate, making the token bucket inaccurate. Thus, instead of relying on rate table, this patch explicitly computes the time and accounts for packet transmission times with nanosecond granularity. This is a followup to 56b765b7 ("htb: improved accuracy at high rates"). Signed-off-by: Jiri Pirko <jiri@resnulli.us> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Until now, the MPC5200 FEC ethernet driver relied upon the bootloader (U-Boot) to write the MAC address into the ethernet controller registers. The Linux driver should not rely on such a thing. So lets read the MAC address from the DT as it should be done here. The following priority is now used to read the MAC address: 1) First, try OF node MAC address, if not present or invalid, then: 2) Read from MAC address registers, if invalid, then: 3) Log a warning message, and choose a random MAC address. This fixes a problem with a MPC5200 board that uses the SPL U-Boot version without FEC initialization before Linux booting for boot speedup. Additionally a status line is now be printed upon successful driver probing, also displaying this MAC address.

The original fix that was applied for setting gso_type required more change than necessary because it was assumed ixgbe does RSC on IPv6 frames and this is not correct. RSC is only supported with IPv4/TCP frames only. As such we can simplify the fix and avoid the unnecessary move of eth_type_trans. The previous patch "ixgbe: fix gso type" and this patch reduce the entire fix to one line that sets gso_type to TCPV4 if the frame is RSC.

__netpoll_rcu_free is used to free netpoll structures when the rtnl_lock is already held. The mechanism is used to asynchronously call __netpoll_cleanup outside of the holding of the rtnl_lock, so as to avoid deadlock. Unfortunately, __netpoll_cleanup modifies pointers (dev->np), which means the rtnl_lock must be held while calling it. Further, it cannot be held, because rcu callbacks may be issued in softirq contexts, which cannot sleep. Fix this by converting the rcu callback to a work queue that is guaranteed to get scheduled in process context, so that we can hold the rtnl properly while calling __netpoll_cleanup Tested successfully by myself.

The band field for the supported channels were left unpopulated, making them default to 0 == IEEE80211_BAND_2GHZ, even for the 5GHz channels. This resulted in null pointer accesses if anything tries to access wiphy->bands[channel->band] of a 5GHz channel on 5GHz only cards, since wiphy->bands[2GHZ] is NULL for them (e.g. cfg80211_chandef_usable does).
