Upon reception of a MGM report packet the kernel sets the mrouters_only flag in a skb that is a clone of the original skb, which means that the bridge loses track of MGM packets (cb buffers are tied to a specific skb and not shared) and it ends up forwading join requests to the bridge interface. This can cause unexpected membership timeouts and intermitent/permanent loss of connectivity as described in RFC 4541 [2.1.1. IGMP Forwarding Rules]: A snooping switch should forward IGMP Membership Reports only to those ports where multicast routers are attached. [...] Sending membership reports to other hosts can result, for IGMPv1 and IGMPv2, in unintentionally preventing a host from joining a specific multicast group.

Introducing driver for the network port of Samsung Kalmia based USB LTE modems. It has also an ACM interface that previous patches associates with the "option" module. To access those interfaces, the modem must first be switched from modem mode using a tool like usb_modeswitch. As the proprietary protocol has been discovered by watching the MS Windows driver behavior, there might be errors in the protocol handling, but stable and fast connection has been established for hours with Norwegian operator NetCom that distributes this modem with their LTE/4G subscription. More and updated information about how to use this driver is available here: http://www.draisberghof.de/usb_modeswitch/bb/viewtopic.php?t=465 https://github.com/mkotsbak/Samsung-GT-B3730-linux-driverSigned-off-by: Marius B.

Avoid double seq adjustment for loopback traffic because it causes silent repetition of TCP data. One example is passive FTP with DNAT rule and difference in the length of IP addresses. This patch adds check if packet is sent and received via loopback device. As the same conntrack is used both for outgoing and incoming direction, we restrict seq adjustment to happen only in POSTROUTING.

By default, when broadcast or multicast packet are sent from a local application, they are sent to the interface then looped by the kernel to other local applications, going throught netfilter hooks in the process. These looped packet have their MAC header removed from the skb by the kernel looping code. This confuse various netfilter's netlink queue, netlink log and the legacy ip_queue, because they try to extract a hardware address from these packets, but extracts a part of the IP header instead. This patch prevent NFQUEUE, NFLOG and ip_QUEUE to include a MAC header if there is none in the packet.

In net/ieee802154/nl-phy.c::ieee802154_nl_fill_phy() I see two small issues. 1) If the allocation of 'buf' fails we may just as well return -EMSGSIZE directly rather than jumping to 'out:' and do a pointless kfree(0). 2) We do not free 'buf' unless we jump to one of the error labels and this leaks memory. This patch should address both. Signed-off-by: Jesper Juhl <jj@chaosbits.net> Acked-by: Dmitry Eremin-Solenikov <dbaryshkov@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@conan.davemloft.net>

Quote from Patric Mc Hardy "This looks like nfnetlink.c excited and destroyed the nfnl socket, but ip_vs was still holding a reference to a conntrack. When the conntrack got destroyed it created a ctnetlink event, causing an oops in netlink_has_listeners when trying to use the destroyed nfnetlink socket." If nf_conntrack_netlink is loaded before ip_vs this is not a problem. This patch simply avoids calling ip_vs_conn_drop_conntrack() when netns is dying as suggested by Julian.

Testing of VLAN_FLAG_REORDER_HDR does not belong in vlan_untag but rather in vlan_do_receive. Otherwise the vlan header will not be properly put on the packet in the case of vlan header accelleration. As we remove the check from vlan_check_reorder_header rename it vlan_reorder_header to keep the naming clean. Fix up the skb->pkt_type early so we don't look at the packet after adding the vlan tag, which guarantees we don't goof and look at the wrong field. Use a simple if statement instead of a complicated switch statement to decided that we need to increment rx_stats for a multicast packet. Hopefully at somepoint we will just declare the case where VLAN_FLAG_REORDER_HDR is cleared as unsupported and remove the code. Until then this keeps it working correctly. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

We assume that transhdrlen is positive on the first fragment which is wrong for raw packets. So we don't add exthdrlen to the packet size for raw packets. This leads to a reallocation on IPsec because we have not enough headroom on the skb to place the IPsec headers. This patch fixes this by adding exthdrlen to the packet size whenever the send queue of the socket is empty.

Ignacy reports that sometimes after leaving an IBSS joining a new one didn't work because there still were stations on the list. He fixed it by flushing stations when attempting to join a new IBSS, but this shouldn't be happening in the first case. When I looked into it I saw a race condition in teardown that could cause stations to be added after flush, and thus cause this situation. Ignacy confirms that after applying my patch he hasn't seen this happen again.

When one of the SSID's length passed in a scan or sched_scan request is larger than 255, there will be an overflow in the u8 that is used to store the length before checking. This causes the check to fail and we overrun the buffer when copying the SSID. Fix this by checking the nl80211 attribute length before copying it to the struct. This is a follow up for the previous commit 208c72f4, which didn't fix the problem entirely.
