iwpriv app uses iw_point structure to send data to Kernel. The iw_point structure holds a pointer. For compatibility Kernel converts the pointer as required for WEXT IOCTLs (SIOCIWFIRST to SIOCIWLAST). Some drivers may use iw_handler_def.private_args to populate iwpriv commands instead of iw_handler_def.private. For those case, the IOCTLs from SIOCIWFIRSTPRIV to SIOCIWLASTPRIV will follow the path ndo_do_ioctl(). Accordingly when the filled up iw_point structure comes from 32 bit iwpriv to 64 bit Kernel, Kernel will not convert the pointer and sends it to driver. So, the driver may get the invalid data. The pointer conversion for the IOCTLs (SIOCIWFIRSTPRIV to SIOCIWLASTPRIV), which follow the path ndo_do_ioctl(), is mandatory. This patch adds pointer conversion from 32 bit to 64 bit and vice versa, if the ioctl comes from 32 bit iwpriv to 64 bit Kernel.

Since set_tx_power and set_antenna are frequently implemented without the matching get_tx_power/get_antenna, we shouldn't have added warnings for those. Remove them. The remaining ones are correct and need to be implemented symmetrically for correct operation.

The header field is defined as u8[] but also accessed as struct ieee80211_hdr. Enforce an alignment of 2 to prevent unnecessary unaligned accesses, which can be very harmful for performance on many platforms.

Currently, the mesh paths associated with a nexthop station are cleaned up in the following code path: __sta_info_destroy_part1 synchronize_net() __sta_info_destroy_part2 -> cleanup_single_sta -> mesh_sta_cleanup -> mesh_plink_deactivate -> mesh_path_flush_by_nexthop However, there are a couple of problems here: 1) the paths aren't flushed at all if the MPM is running in userspace (e.g. when using wpa_supplicant or authsae) 2) there is no synchronize_rcu between removing the path and readers accessing the nexthop, which means the following race is possible: CPU0 CPU1 ~~~~ ~~~~ sta_info_destroy_part1() synchronize_net() rcu_read_lock() mesh_nexthop_resolve() mpath = mesh_path_lookup() [...] -> mesh_path_flush_by_nexthop() sta = rcu_dereference( mpath->next_hop) kfree(sta) access sta <-- CRASH Fix both of these by unconditionally flushing paths before destroying the sta, and by adding a synchronize_net() after path flush to ensure no active readers can still dereference the sta.

l2tp_ip6 tunnel and session lookups were still using init_net, although the l2tp core infrastructure already supports lookups keyed by 'net'. As a result, l2tp_ip6_recv discarded packets for tunnels/sessions created in namespaces other than the init_net. Fix, by using dev_net(skb->dev) or sock_net(sk) where appropriate.

Since NAPI works by shutting down event interrupts when theres work and turning them on when theres none, the net driver must make sure that interrupts are disabled when it reschedules polling. By calling napi_reschedule, the driver switches to polling mode, therefor there should be no interrupt interference. Any received packets will be handled in nps_enet_poll by polling the HW indication of received packet until all packets are handled.

Also, if CONFIG_IPV6=y, but CONFIG_IPV6_TUNNEL=m or CONFIG_IPV6_TUNNEL=n, the same problem happens for a different reason. This adds two new silent Kconfig symbols to work around both problems: - CONFIG_IPV6_FOU is now always set to 'm' if either CONFIG_NET_FOU=m or CONFIG_IPV6=m - CONFIG_IPV6_FOU_TUNNEL is set implicitly when IPV6_FOU is enabled and NET_FOU_IP_TUNNELS is also turned out, and it will ensure that CONFIG_IPV6_TUNNEL is also available. The options could be made user-visible as well, to give additional room for configuration, but it seems easier not to bother users with more choice here.

mlx4 uses a private struct net_device_stats in a vain attempt to avoid races. This is buggy because multiple cpus could call mlx4_en_get_stats() at the same time, so ret_stats can not guarantee stable results. To fix this, we need to switch to ndo_get_stats64() as this method provides per-thread storage. This allows to reduce mlx4_en_priv bloat.

Add a per TX ring tx_dropped to fix these issues. This is u32 as mlx4_en_DUMP_ETH_STATS() will add a 32bit field. So lets avoid bugs with SNMP agents having to cope with partial overwraps.

We have this situation: that EP hash table, contains only the EPs that are listening, while the transports one, has the opposite. We have to traverse both to dump all. But when we traverse the transports one we will also get EPs that are in the EP hash if they are listening. In this case, the EP is dumped twice. We will fix it by checking if the endpoint that is in the endpoint hash table contains any ep->asoc in there, as it means we will also find it via transport hash, and thus we can/should skip it, depending on the filters used, like 'ss -l'. Still, we should NOT skip it if the user is listing only listening endpoints, because then we are not traversing the transport hash. so we have to check idiag_states there also.

Fix a typo in the driver, replace comma with a semicolon at the end of statement. While using comma is a legal C here and probably does not even generate compiler warning, it was unlikely the intention. Signed-off-by: Marek Vasut <marex@denx.de> Cc: David S.

The memcpy() currently copies mdio_bus_data into new_bus->irq, which makes no sense, since the mdio_bus_data structure contains more than just irqs. The code was likely supposed to copy mdio_bus_data->irqs into the new_bus->irq instead, so fix this.

This patch follows Eric Dumazet's commit 7b701764 for Atheros atl1c driver to fix one exactly same bug in alx driver, that the network link will be lost in 1-5 minutes after the device is up. My laptop Lenovo Y580 with Atheros AR8161 ethernet device hit the same problem with kernel 4.4, and it will be cured by Jarod Wilson's commit c406700c for alx driver which get merged in 4.5. But there are still some alx devices can't function well even with Jarod's patch, while this patch could make them work fine. More details on https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=70761 The debug shows the issue is very likely to be related with the RX DMA address, specifically 0x...f80, if RX buffer get 0x...f80 several times, their will be RX overflow error and device will stop working. For kernel 4.5.0 with Jarod's patch which works fine with my AR8161/Lennov Y580, if I made some change to the __netdev_alloc_skb --> __alloc_page_frag() to make the allocated buffer can get an address with 0x...f80, then the same error happens. If I make it to 0x...f40 or 0x....fc0, everything will be still fine. So I tend to believe that the 0x..f80 address cause the silicon to behave abnormally.

The team_device_event() notifier calls team_compute_features() to fix vlan_features under team->lock to protect team->port_list. The problem is that subsequent __team_compute_features() calls netdev_change_features() to propagate vlan_features to upper vlan devices while team->lock is still taken. This can lead to deadlock when NETIF_F_LRO is modified on lower devices or team device itself. Example: The team0 as active backup with eth0 and eth1 NICs. Both eth0 & eth1 are LRO capable and LRO is enabled. Thus LRO is also enabled on team0. The command 'ethtool -K team0 lro off' now hangs due to this deadlock: dev_ethtool() -> ethtool_set_features() -> __netdev_update_features(team) -> netdev_sync_lower_features() -> netdev_update_features(lower_1) -> __netdev_update_features(lower_1) -> netdev_features_change(lower_1) -> call_netdevice_notifiers(...) -> team_device_event(lower_1) -> team_compute_features(team) [TAKES team->lock] -> netdev_change_features(team) -> __netdev_update_features(team) -> netdev_sync_lower_features() -> netdev_update_features(lower_2) -> __netdev_update_features(lower_2) -> netdev_features_change(lower_2) -> call_netdevice_notifiers(...) -> team_device_event(lower_2) -> team_compute_features(team) [DEADLOCK] The bug is present in team from the beginning but it appeared after the commit fd867d51 (net/core: generic support for disabling netdev features down stack) that adds synchronization of features with lower devices.
