Bjørn Mork says: ==================== The 2 first patches in this series are required to make the Sierra Wireless MC7710 card work in MBIM mode. They may also be required for other Qualcomm firmware based MBIM devices. Patch #1 was previously posted as a standalone patch. This version is a replacement, removing a theoretical NULL pointer exception. Patch #3 fixes a bug I introduced in v3.7 ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

We normally avoid sending ZLPs by padding NTBs with a zero byte if the NTB is shorter than dwNtbOutMaxSize, resulting in a short USB packet instead of a ZLP. But in the case where the NTB length is exactly dwNtbOutMaxSize and this is an exact multiplum of wMaxPacketSize, then we must send a ZLP. This fixes an issue seen on a Sierra Wireless MC7710 device where the transmission would fail whenever we ended up padding the NTBs to max size.

Adding support for the MBIM mode in some Sierra Wireless devices. Some Sierra Wireless firmwares support CDC MBIM but have no CDC Union funtional descriptor. This violates the MBIM specification, but we can easily work around the bug by looking at the Interface Association Descriptor instead. This is most likely what Windows uses too, which explains how the firmware bug has gone unnoticed until now. This change will not affect any currently supported device conforming to the NCM or MBIM specifications, as they must have the CDC Union descriptor.

The route lookup in ipv4_sk_update_pmtu() might return a route different from the route we cached at the socket. This is because standart routes are per cpu, so each cpu has it's own struct rtable. This means that we do not invalidate the socket cached route if the NET_RX_SOFTIRQ is not served by the same cpu that the sending socket uses. As a result, the cached route reused until we disconnect. With this patch we invalidate the socket cached route if possible. If the socket is owened by the user, we can't update the cached route directly. A followup patch will implement socket release callback functions for datagram sockets to handle this case.

splice() can handle pages of any order, but network code tries hard to split them in PAGE_SIZE units. Not quite successfully anyway, as __splice_segment() assumed poff < PAGE_SIZE. This is true for the skb->data part, not necessarily for the fragments. This patch removes this logic to give the pages as they are in the skb.

The lines if (mlx4_is_mfunc(dev)) { nreq = 2; } else { which hard code the number of requested msi-x vectors under multi-function mode to two can be removed completely, since the firmware sets num_eqs and reserved_eqs appropriately Thus, the code line: nreq = min_t(int, dev->caps.num_eqs - dev->caps.reserved_eqs, nreq); is by itself sufficient and correct for all cases. Currently, for mfunc mode num_eqs = 32 and reserved_eqs = 28, hence four vectors will be enabled. This triples (one vector is used for the async events and commands EQ) the horse power provided for processing of incoming packets on netdev RSS scheme, IO initiators/targets commands processing flows, etc. Reviewed-by: Jack Morgenstein <jackm@dev.mellanox.co.il> Signed-off-by: Amir Vadai <amirv@mellanox.com> Signed-off-by: Or Gerlitz <ogerlitz@mellanox.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Commit 5b4c4d36 "mlx4_en: Allow communication between functions on same host" introduced a regression under which a bridge acting as vSwitch whose uplink is an mlx4 Ethernet device become non-operative in native (non sriov) mode. This happens since broadcast ARP requests sent by VMs were loopback-ed by the HW and hence the bridge learned VM source MACs on both the VM and the uplink ports. The fix is to place the DMAC in the send WQE only under SRIOV/eSwitch configuration or when the device is in selftest.

The xgmac driver assumes 1 frame per descriptor. If a frame larger than the descriptor's buffer size is received, the frame will spill over into the next descriptor. So check for received frames that span more than one descriptor and discard them. This prevents a crash if we receive erroneous large packets.

Jamie Parsons reported a problem recently, in which the re-initalization of an association (The duplicate init case), resulted in a loss of receive window space. He tracked down the root cause to sctp_outq_teardown, which discarded all the data on an outq during a re-initalization of the corresponding association, but never reset the outq->outstanding_data field to zero. I wrote, and he tested this fix, which does a proper full re-initalization of the outq, fixing this problem, and hopefully future proofing us from simmilar issues down the road.

John W. Linville says: ==================== This batch of fixes is intended for 3.8... Included is a Bluetooth pull. Gustavo says: "A few fixes for 3.8. Five of them are just new devices ids addition. Apart from the that there is fix to a kernel memory leak to userspace from Anderson Lizardo, two interoperability fixes from Jaganath Kanakkassery and Szymon Janc. And a crash fix by me." Along with that, Amitkumar Karwar brings a pair of mwifiex fixes for problems related to handling of band information within the driver. These problems can lead to association failures. Sujith Manoharan fixes a memory leak in the ath9k_htc code (originally reported by Larry Finger). The big hero this round is Felix Fietkau. Felix gives us seven ath9k fixes, including a fix for a race condition, the removal of a double-free, and a fix for a deadlock, among others. These have all been in linux-next for at least a couple of days, with no complaints so far. Please let me know if there are problems! ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

Commit 299b0767 (ipv6: Fix IPsec slowpath fragmentation problem) has introduced a error in the header length calculation that provokes corrupted packets when non-fragmentable extensions headers (Destination Option or Routing Header Type 2) are used. rt->rt6i_nfheader_len is the length of the non-fragmentable extension header, and it should be substracted to rt->dst.header_len, and not to exthdrlen, as it was done before commit 299b0767. This patch reverts to the original and correct behavior. It has been successfully tested with and without IPsec on packets that include non-fragmentable extensions headers.

This patch corrects some problems with LSM/SELinux that were introduced with the multiqueue patchset. The problem stems from the fact that the multiqueue work changed the relationship between the tun device and its associated socket; before the socket persisted for the life of the device, however after the multiqueue changes the socket only persisted for the life of the userspace connection (fd open). For non-persistent devices this is not an issue, but for persistent devices this can cause the tun device to lose its SELinux label. We correct this problem by adding an opaque LSM security blob to the tun device struct which allows us to have the LSM security state, e.g. SELinux labeling information, persist for the lifetime of the tun device. In the process we tweak the LSM hooks to work with this new approach to TUN device/socket labeling and introduce a new LSM hook, security_tun_dev_attach_queue(), to approve requests to attach to a TUN queue via TUNSETQUEUE. The SELinux code has been adjusted to match the new LSM hooks, the other LSMs do not make use of the LSM TUN controls. This patch makes use of the recently added "tun_socket:attach_queue" permission to restrict access to the TUNSETQUEUE operation. On older SELinux policies which do not define the "tun_socket:attach_queue" permission the access control decision for TUNSETQUEUE will be handled according to the SELinux policy's unknown permission setting.

Andrew Morton pointed this out a month ago, and then I completely forgot about it. If we read a partial last page of a block device, we will zero out the end of the page, but since that page can then be mapped into user space, we should also make sure to flush the cache on architectures that have virtual caches. We have the flush_dcache_page() function for this, so use it. Now, in practice this really never matters, because nobody sane uses virtual caches to begin with, and they largely exist on old broken RISC arhitectures. And even if you did run on one of those obsolete CPU's, the whole "mmap and access the last partial page of a block device" behavior probably doesn't actually exist. The normal IO functions (read/write) will never see the zeroed-out part of the page that migth not be coherent in the cache, because they honor the size of the device. So I'm marking this for stable (3.7 only), but I'm not sure anybody will ever care.
