commit 8bf86273 upstream. Beniamino reported that he was getting an RTM_NEWLINK message for a given interface, after the RTM_DELLINK for it. It turns out that the message is a wireless extensions message, which was sent because the interface had been connected and disconnection while it was deleted caused a wext message. For its netlink messages, wext uses RTM_NEWLINK, but the message is without all the regular rtnetlink attributes, so "ip monitor link" prints just rudimentary information: 5: wlan1: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 qdisc mq state DOWN group default link/ether 02:00:00:00:01:00 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff Deleted 5: wlan1: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN group default link/ether 02:00:00:00:01:00 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff 5: wlan1: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP> link/ether (from my hwsim reproduction) This can cause userspace to get confused since it doesn't expect an RTM_NEWLINK message after RTM_DELLINK. The reason for this is that wext schedules a worker to send out the messages, and the scheduling delay can cause the messages to get out to userspace in different order. To fix this, have wext register a netdevice notifier and flush out any pending messages when netdevice state changes. This fixes any ordering whenever the original message wasn't sent by a notifier itself. Reported-by:

commit 8e20cf2b upstream. The aiptek driver crashes in aiptek_probe() when a specially crafted USB device without endpoints is detected. This fix adds a check that the device has proper configuration expected by the driver. Also an error return value is changed to more matching one in one of the error paths. Reported-by:

commit 759c0114 upstream. On no-so-small systems, it is possible for a single process to cause an OOM condition by filling large pipes with data that are never read. A typical process filling 4000 pipes with 1 MB of data will use 4 GB of memory. On small systems it may be tricky to set the pipe max size to prevent this from happening. This patch makes it possible to enforce a per-user soft limit above which new pipes will be limited to a single page, effectively limiting them to 4 kB each, as well as a hard limit above which no new pipes may be created for this user. This has the effect of protecting the system against memory abuse without hurting other users, and still allowing pipes to work correctly though with less data at once. The limit are controlled by two new sysctls : pipe-user-pages-soft, and pipe-user-pages-hard. Both may be disabled by setting them to zero. The default soft limit allows the default number of FDs per process (1024) to create pipes of the default size (64kB), thus reaching a limit of 64MB before starting to create only smaller pipes. With 256 processes limited to 1024 FDs each, this results in 1024*64kB + (256*1024 - 1024) * 4kB = 1084 MB of memory allocated for a user. The hard limit is disabled by default to avoid breaking existing applications that make intensive use of pipes (eg: for splicing). Reported-by: socketpair@gmail.com Reported-by:

commit d5c3d846 upstream. Commit 2c7b4921 ("phy: fix the use of PHY_IGNORE_INTERRUPT") changed a hunk in phy_state_machine() in the PHY_RUNNING case which was not needed. The change essentially makes the PHY library treat PHY devices with PHY_IGNORE_INTERRUPT to keep polling for the PHY device, even though the intent is not to do it. Fix this by reverting that specific hunk, which makes the PHY state machine wait for state changes, and stay in the PHY_RUNNING state for as long as needed.

commit deccd16f upstream. Commit 5ea94e76 ("phy: add phy_mac_interrupt()") to use with PHY_IGNORE_INTERRUPT added a cancel_work_sync() into phy_mac_interrupt() which is allowed to sleep, whereas phy_mac_interrupt() is expected to be callable from interrupt context. Now that we have fixed how the PHY state machine treats PHY_IGNORE_INTERRUPT with respect to state changes, we can just set the new link state, and queue the PHY state machine for execution so it is going to read the new link state. For that to work properly, we need to update phy_change() not to try to invoke any interrupt callbacks if we have configured the PHY device for PHY_IGNORE_INTERRUPT, because that PHY device and its driver are not required to implement those.

[ Upstream commit d9749fb5 ] Dmitry Vyukov noted recently that the sctp_port_hashtable had an error in its size computation, observing that the current method never guaranteed that the hashsize (measured in number of entries) would be a power of two, which the input hash function for that table requires. The root cause of the problem is that two values need to be computed (one, the allocation order of the storage requries, as passed to __get_free_pages, and two the number of entries for the hash table). Both need to be ^2, but for different reasons, and the existing code is simply computing one order value, and using it as the basis for both, which is wrong (i.e. it assumes that ((1<<order)*PAGE_SIZE)/sizeof(bucket) is still ^2 when its not). To fix this, we change the logic slightly. We start by computing a goal allocation order (which is limited by the maximum size hash table we want to support. Then we attempt to allocate that size table, decreasing the order until a successful allocation is made. Then, with the resultant successful order we compute the number of buckets that hash table supports, which we then round down to the nearest power of two, giving us the number of entries the table actually supports. I've tested this locally here, using non-debug and spinlock-debug kernels, and the number of entries in the hashtable consistently work out to be powers of two in all cases. Signed-off-by:

[ Upstream commit 21a75f09 ] The current logic in bond_arp_rcv will accept an incoming ARP for validation if (a) the receiving slave is either "active" (which includes the currently active slave, or the current ARP slave) or, (b) there is a currently active slave, and it has received an ARP since it became active. For case (b), the receiving slave isn't the currently active slave, and is receiving the original broadcast ARP request, not an ARP reply from the target. This logic can fail if there is no currently active slave. In this situation, the ARP probe logic cycles through all slaves, assigning each in turn as the "current_arp_slave" for one arp_interval, then setting that one as "active," and sending an ARP probe from that slave. The current logic expects the ARP reply to arrive on the sending current_arp_slave, however, due to switch FDB updating delays, the reply may be directed to another slave. This can arise if the bonding slaves and switch are working, but the ARP target is not responding. When the ARP target recovers, a condition may result wherein the ARP target host replies faster than the switch can update its forwarding table, causing each ARP reply to be sent to the previous current_arp_slave. This will never pass the logic in bond_arp_rcv, as neither of the above conditions (a) or (b) are met. Some experimentation on a LAN shows ARP reply round trips in the 200 usec range, but my available switches never update their FDB in less than 4000 usec. This patch changes the logic in bond_arp_rcv to additionally accept an ARP reply for validation on any slave if there is a current ARP slave and it sent an ARP probe during the previous arp_interval.

[ Upstream commit b7d98729 ] tg3_tso_bug() can hit a condition where the entire tx ring is not big enough to segment the GSO packet. For example, if MSS is very small, gso_segs can exceed the tx ring size. When we hit the condition, it will cause tx timeout. tg3_tso_bug() is called to handle TSO and DMA hardware bugs. For TSO bugs, if tg3_tso_bug() cannot succeed, we have to drop the packet. For DMA bugs, we can still fall back to linearize the SKB and let the hardware transmit the TSO packet. This patch adds a function tg3_tso_bug_gso_check() to check if there are enough tx descriptors for GSO before calling tg3_tso_bug(). The caller will then handle the error appropriately - drop or lineraize the SKB. v2: Corrected patch description to avoid confusion. Signed-off-by:

[ Upstream commit 8013d1d7 ] Commit 6fd99094 ("ipv6: Don't reduce hop limit for an interface") disabled accept hop limit from RA if it is smaller than the current hop limit for security stuff. But this behavior kind of break the RFC definition. RFC 4861, 6.3.4. Processing Received Router Advertisements A Router Advertisement field (e.g., Cur Hop Limit, Reachable Time, and Retrans Timer) may contain a value denoting that it is unspecified. In such cases, the parameter should be ignored and the host should continue using whatever value it is already using. If the received Cur Hop Limit value is non-zero, the host SHOULD set its CurHopLimit variable to the received value. So add sysctl option accept_ra_min_hop_limit to let user choose the minimum hop limit value they can accept from RA. And set default to 1 to meet RFC standards. Signed-off-by:
