In rare cases, bnx2x_free_tx_skbs() can unmap the wrong DMA address when it gets to the last entry of the tx ring. We were not using the proper macro to skip the last entry when advancing the tx index. Reported-by:

Or Gerlitz reported triggering of WARN_ON_ONCE(delta < len); in skb_try_coalesce() This warning tracks drivers that incorrectly set skb->truesize IPoIB indeed allocates a full page to store a fragment, but only accounts in skb->truesize the used part of the page (frame length) This patch fixes skb truesize underestimation, and also fixes a performance issue, because RX skbs have not enough tailroom to allow IP and TCP stacks to pull their header in skb linear part without an expensive call to pskb_expand_head() Signed-off-by:

In driver reload test there is a memory leak. The structure vlan_info was not freed when the driver was removed. It was not released since the nr_vids var is one after last vlan was removed. The nr_vids is one, since vlan zero is added to the interface when the interface is being set, but the vlan zero is not deleted at unregister. Fix - delete vlan zero when we unregister the device.

commit db83d136 (gianfar: Fix missing sock reference when processing TX time stamps) added a potential sk_wmem_alloc imbalance If the new skb has a different truesize than old one, we can get a negative sk_wmem_alloc once new skb is orphaned at TX completion. Now we no longer early orphan skbs in dev_hard_start_xmit(), this probably can lead to fatal bugs. Signed-off-by:

If list_for_each_entry, etc complete a traversal of the list, the iterator variable ends up pointing to an address at an offset from the list head, and not a meaningful structure. Thus this value should not be used after the end of the iterator. There does not seem to be a meaningful value to provide to netdev_warn. Replace with pr_warn, since pr_err is used elsewhere. This problem was found using Coccinelle (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/). Signed-off-by:

dev->priomap is allocated by extend_netdev_table() called from update_netdev_tables(). And this is only called if write_priomap() is called. But if write_priomap() is not called, it seems we can have out of bounds accesses in cgrp_destroy(), read_priomap() & skb_update_prio() With help from Gao Feng Signed-off-by:

The bonding debugfs support has been broken in the presence of network namespaces since it has been added. The debugfs support does not handle multiple bonding devices with the same name in different network namespaces. I haven't had any bug reports, and I'm not interested in getting any.

It was recently reported that moving a bonding device between network namespaces causes warnings from /proc. It turns out after the move we were trying to add and to remove the /proc/net/bonding entries from the wrong network namespace. Move the bonding /proc registration code into the NETDEV_REGISTER and NETDEV_UNREGISTER events where the proc registration and unregistration will always happen at the right time. Signed-off-by:

For the higher mtu sizes requiring the buffer size greater than 8192, the buffers are sent or received using multiple dma descriptors/ same descriptor with option of multi buffer handling. It was observed during tests that the driver was missing on data packets during the normal ping operations if the data buffers being used catered to jumbo frame handling. The memory barrriers are added in between preparation of dma descriptors in the jumbo frame handling path to ensure all instructions before enabling the dma are complete. Signed-off-by:

It was observed that during multiple reboots nfs hangs. The status of receive descriptors shows that all the descriptors were in control of CPU, and none were assigned to DMA. Also the DMA status register confirmed that the Rx buffer is unavailable. This patch adds the fix for the same by adding the memory barriers to ascertain that the all instructions before enabling the Rx or Tx DMA are completed which involves the proper setting of the ownership bit in DMA descriptors.

When we remove a key, we put a key index which was supposed to tell the fw that we are actually removing the key. But instead the fw took that index as a valid index and messed up the SRAM of the device. This memory corruption on the device mangled the data of the SCD. The impact on the user is that SCD queue 2 got stuck after having removed keys. Reported-by:

On rt2x00_dmastart() we increase index specified by Q_INDEX and on rt2x00_dmadone() we increase index specified by Q_INDEX_DONE. So entries between Q_INDEX_DONE and Q_INDEX are those we currently process in the hardware. Entries between Q_INDEX and Q_INDEX_DONE are those we can submit to the hardware. According to that fix rt2x00usb_kick_queue(), as we need to submit RX entries that are not processed by the hardware. It worked before only for empty queue, otherwise was broken. Note that for TX queues indexes ordering are ok. We need to kick entries that have filled skb, but was not submitted to the hardware, i.e. started from Q_INDEX_DONE and have ENTRY_DATA_PENDING bit set. From practical standpoint this fixes RX queue stall, usually reproducible in AP mode, like for example reported here: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=828824Reported-and-tested-by:

If association failed due to internal error (e.g. no supported rates IE), we call ieee80211_destroy_assoc_data() with assoc=true, while we actually reject the association. This results in the BSSID not being zeroed out. After passing assoc=false, we no longer have to call sta_info_destroy_addr() explicitly. While on it, move the "associated" message after the assoc_success check. Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org [3.4+] Signed-off-by:

we set max_prioidx to the first zero bit index of prioidx_map in function get_prioidx. So when we delete the low index netprio cgroup and adding a new netprio cgroup again,the max_prioidx will be set to the low index. when we set the high index cgroup's net_prio.ifpriomap,the function write_priomap will call update_netdev_tables to alloc memory which size is sizeof(struct netprio_map) + sizeof(u32) * (max_prioidx + 1), so the size of array that map->priomap point to is max_prioidx +1, which is low than what we actually need. fix this by adding check in get_prioidx,only set max_prioidx when max_prioidx low than the new prioidx.

DCB and SR-IOV cannot currently be enabled at the same time as the queueing schemes are incompatible. If they are both enabled it will result in Tx hangs since only the first Tx queue will be able to transmit any traffic. This simple fix for this is to block us from enabling TCs in ixgbe_setup_tc if SR-IOV is enabled. This change will be reverted once we can support SR-IOV and DCB coexistence. Signed-off-by:

There is no need to add an extra NET_SKB_PAD reservation for bounce buffers : - In TX path, NET_SKB_PAD is useless - In RX path in b44, we force a copy of incoming frames if GFP_DMA allocations were needed.

If the gateway functionality is used, some broadcast packets (DHCP requests) may be transmitted as unicast packets. As the bridge loop avoidance code now only considers the payload Ethernet destination, it may drop the DHCP request for clients which are claimed by other backbone gateways, because it falsely infers from the broadcast address that the right backbone gateway should havehandled the broadcast. Fix this by checking and delegating the batman-adv packet type used for transmission. Reported-by:

In commit 070ad7e7 ("floppy: convert to delayed work and single-thread wq") the 'fd_timeout' timer was converted to a delayed work. However, the "del_timer(&fd_timeout)" was lost in the process, and any previous pending timeouts would stay active when we then re-queued the timeout. This resulted in the floppy probe sequence having a (stale) 20s timeout rather than the intended 3s timeout, and thus made booting with the floppy driver (but no actual floppy controller) take much longer than it should. Of course, there's little reason for most people to compile the floppy driver into the kernel at all, which is why most people never noticed. Canceling the delayed work where we used to do the del_timer() fixes the issue, and makes the floppy probing use the proper new timeout instead. The three second timeout is still very wasteful, but better than the 20s one. Reported-and-tested-by:

Pull block bits from Jens Axboe: "As vacation is coming up, thought I'd better get rid of my pending changes in my for-linus branch for this iteration. It contains: - Two patches for mtip32xx. Killing a non-compliant sysfs interface and moving it to debugfs, where it belongs. - A few patches from Asias. Two legit bug fixes, and one killing an interface that is no longer in use. - A patch from Jan, making the annoying partition ioctl warning a bit less annoying, by restricting it to !CAP_SYS_RAWIO only. - Three bug fixes for drbd from Lars Ellenberg. - A fix for an old regression for umem, it hasn't really worked since the plugging scheme was changed in 3.0. - A few fixes from Tejun. - A splice fix from Eric Dumazet, fixing an issue with pipe resizing." * 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block: scsi: Silence unnecessary warnings about ioctl to partition block: Drop dead function blk_abort_queue() block: Mitigate lock unbalance caused by lock switching block: Avoid missed wakeup in request waitqueue umem: fix up unplugging splice: fix racy pipe->buffers uses drbd: fix null pointer dereference with on-congestion policy when diskless drbd: fix list corruption by failing but already aborted reads drbd: fix access of unallocated pages and kernel panic xen/blkfront: Add WARN to deal with misbehaving backends. blkcg: drop local variable @q from blkg_destroy() mtip32xx: Create debugfs entries for troubleshooting mtip32xx: Remove 'registers' and 'flags' from sysfs blkcg: fix blkg_alloc() failure path block: blkcg_policy_cfq shouldn't be used if !CONFIG_CFQ_GROUP_IOSCHED block: fix return value on cfq_init() failure mtip32xx: Remove version.h header file inclusion xen/blkback: Copy id field when doing BLKIF_DISCARD.
