Conflicts: drivers/net/ieee802154/fakehard.c A bug fix went into 'net' for ieee802154/fakehard.c, which is removed in 'net-next'. Add build fix into the merge from Stephen Rothwell in openvswitch, the logging macros take a new initial 'log' argument, a new call was added in 'net' so when we merge that in here we have to explicitly add the new 'log' arg to it else the build fails.

Pull ACPI power management fix from Rafael Wysocki: "This is just a one-liner fixing a regression introduced in 3.13 that broke system suspend on some Chromebooks. On those machines there are ACPI device objects for some I2C devices that can wake up the system from sleep states, but that is done via a platform-specific mechanism and the ACPI objects don't contain any wakeup-related information. When we started to use ACPI power management with those devices (which happened during the 3.13 cycle), their configuration confused the ACPI PM layer that returned error codes from suspend callbacks for them causing system suspend to fail. However, the ACPI PM layer can safely ignore the wakeup setting from a device driver if the ACPI object corresponding to the device in question doesn't contain wakeup information in which case the driver itself is responsible for setting up the device for system wakeup" * tag 'pm+acpi-3.18-rc6' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm: ACPI / PM: Ignore wakeup setting if the ACPI companion can't wake up

Linville says: ==================== pull request: wireless-next 2014-11-21 Please pull this batch of updates intended for the 3.19 stream... For the mac80211 bits, Johannes says: "It has been a while since my last pull request, so we accumulated another relatively large set of changes: * TDLS off-channel support set from Arik/Liad, with some support patches I did * custom regulatory fixes from Arik * minstrel VHT fix (and a small optimisation) from Felix * add back radiotap vendor namespace support (myself) * random MAC address scanning for cfg80211/mac80211/hwsim (myself) * CSA improvements (Luca) * WoWLAN Net Detect (wake on network found) support (Luca) * and lots of other smaller changes from many people" For the Bluetooth bits, Johan says: "Here's another set of patches for 3.19. Most of it is again fixes and cleanups to ieee802154 related code from Alexander Aring. We've also got better handling of hardware error events along with a proper API for HCI drivers to notify the HCI core of such situations. There's also a minor fix for mgmt events as well as a sparse warning fix. The code for sending HCI commands synchronously also gets a fix where we might loose the completion event in the case of very fast HW (particularly easily reproducible with an emulated HCI device)." And... "Here's another bluetooth-next pull request for 3.19. We've got: - Various fixes, cleanups and improvements to ieee802154/mac802154 - Support for a Broadcom BCM20702A1 variant - Lots of lockdep fixes - Fixed handling of LE CoC errors that should trigger SMP" For the Atheros bits, Kalle says: "One ath6kl patch and rest for ath10k, but nothing really major which stands out. Most notable: o fix resume (Bartosz) o firmware restart is now faster and more reliable (Michal) o it's now possible to test hardware restart functionality without crashing the firmware using hw-restart parameter with simulate_fw_crash debugfs file (Michal)" On top of that...both ath9k and mwifiex get their usual level of updates. Of note is the ath9k spectral scan work from Oleksij Rempel. I also pulled from the wireless tree in order to avoid some merge issues.

Maciej W. Rozycki says: ==================== defxx: Assorted fixes, mainly for EISA This is another small series fixing issues with the defxx driver, mainly for EISA boards, but there's one patch for PCI as well. In the end, with the inexistent second IDE channel forcefully disabled in the IDE driver, I wasn't able to retrigger spurious IRQ 15 interrupts I previously saw and suspected the DEFEA to be the cause. So it looks to me these were real noise on IRQ 15 rather than the latency in interrupt acknowledge in the DEFEA board causing the slave 8259A to issue the spurious interrupt vector. In any case not an issue with the defxx driver, so nothing to do here unless the problem resurfaces. I haven't seen your announcement about opening net-next since the closure on Oct 6th, but from the patch traffic and the policy described in Documentation/networking/netdev-FAQ.txt I gather your tree is open. And these are bug fixes anyway, not new features, so please apply. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Reserve DEFEA resources according to actual use. There are three regions, for the ESIC ASIC's CSRs, for the discrete Burst Holdoff register, and for the PDQ ASIC's CSRs. The latter is mapped in the memory or port I/O address space depending on configuration. The two formers are hardwired and always mapped in the port I/O address space. Signed-off-by: Maciej W.

Use ESIC's memory area 1 (MEMCS1) and its Memory Address High Compare and Memory Address Low Compare registers to set up the MMIO range for decoding accesses to PDQ ASIC registers. Previously the PDQ ASIC was thought to be addressable with the memory area 0 (MEMCS0) and its Memory Address Compare and Memory Address Mask registers. The MMIO range allocated for the option card is preset via ECU (EISA Configuration Utility) and can be disabled, so handle such a case gracefully too. Signed-off-by: Maciej W.

Commit c3ae62af ("tcp: should drop incoming frames without ACK flag set") was created to mitigate a security vulnerability in which a local attacker is able to inject data into locally-opened sockets by using TCP protocol statistics in procfs to quickly find the correct sequence number. This broke the RFC5961 requirement to send a challenge ACK in response to spurious RST packets, which was subsequently fixed by commit 7b514a88 ("tcp: accept RST without ACK flag"). Unfortunately, the RFC5961 requirement that spurious SYN packets be handled in a similar manner remains broken. RFC5961 section 4 states that: ... the handling of the SYN in the synchronized state SHOULD be performed as follows: 1) If the SYN bit is set, irrespective of the sequence number, TCP MUST send an ACK (also referred to as challenge ACK) to the remote peer: <SEQ=SND.NXT><ACK=RCV.NXT><CTL=ACK> After sending the acknowledgment, TCP MUST drop the unacceptable segment and stop processing further. By sending an ACK, the remote peer is challenged to confirm the loss of the previous connection and the request to start a new connection. A legitimate peer, after restart, would not have a TCB in the synchronized state. Thus, when the ACK arrives, the peer should send a RST segment back with the sequence number derived from the ACK field that caused the RST. This RST will confirm that the remote peer has indeed closed the previous connection. Upon receipt of a valid RST, the local TCP endpoint MUST terminate its connection. The local TCP endpoint should then rely on SYN retransmission from the remote end to re-establish the connection. This patch lets SYN packets through the discard added in c3ae62af, so that spurious SYN packets are properly dealt with as per the RFC. The challenge ACK is sent unconditionally and is rate-limited, so the original vulnerability is not reintroduced by this patch.

Jeff Kirsher says: ==================== Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2014-11-20 This series contains updates to ixgbevf, i40e and i40evf. Emil updates ixgbevf with much of the work that Alex Duyck did while at Intel. First updates the driver to clear the status bits on allocation instead of in the cleanup routine, this way we can leave the recieve descriptor rings as a read only memory block until we actually have buffers to give back to the hardware. Clean up ixgbevf_clean_rx_irq() by creating ixgbevf_process_skb_field() to merge several similar operations into this new function. Cleanup temporary variables within the receive hot-path and reducing the scope of variables that do not need to exist outside the main loop. Save on stack space by just storing our updated values back in next_to_clean instead of using a stack variable, which also collapses the size the function. Improve performace on IOMMU enabled systems and reduce cache misses by changing the basic receive patch for ixgbevf so that instead of receiving the data into an skb, it is received into a double buffered page. Add netpoll support by creating ixgbevf_netpoll(), which is a callback for .ndo_poll_controller to allow for the VF interface to be used with netconsole. Mitch provides several cleanups and trivial fixes for i40e and i40evf. First is a fix the overloading of the msg_size field in the arq_event_info struct by splitting the field into two and renaming to indicate the actual function of each field. Updates code comments to match the actual function. Cleanup several checkpatch.pl warnings by adding or removing blank lines, aligning function parameters, and correcting over-long lines (which makes the code more readable). Shannon provides a patch for i40e to write the extra bits that will turn off the ITR wait for the interrupt, since we want the SW INT to go off as soon as possible. v2: updated patch 07 based on feedback from Alex Duyck by - adding pfmemalloc check to a new function for reusable page - moved atomic_inc outside of #if/else in ixgbevf_add_rx_frag() - reverted the removal of the API check in ixgbevf_change_mtu() ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

If the Tx engine is told to stop while it is actively processing Tx descriptors it is possible that the Tx descriptor(s) will not be closed out properly. When the Tx engine is restarted this could result in the driver being stuck on the improperly closed descriptor. Update the driver to wait for the Tx engine to be in a stopped or suspended state before issuing the stop command. This has not been an issue to date, but it's a good safe-guard to have.

The kfree() function tests whether its argument is NULL and then returns immediately. Thus the test around the call is not needed. This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.

Fix ethtool set settings to not check AUTONEG_ENABLE mlx4_en_set_settings should not check if cmd->autoneg == AUTONEG_ENABLE, cmd->autoneg can be enabled by default and this check will fail other settings requests. mlx4_en driver doesn't support changing autoneg value, but shouldn't fail the request in case cmd->autoneg was set.

Added a pci_dma_mapping_error() call to check for mapping errors before further using the dma handle. In case of error, control goes to a new label where the incoming skb is freed. Unchecked dma handles were found using Coccinelle: @rule1@ expression e1; identifier x; @@ *x = pci_map_single(...); ... when != pci_dma_mapping_error(e1,x) Signed-off-by: Tina Johnson <tinajohnson.1234@gmail.com> Acked-by: Julia Lawall <julia.lawall@lip6.fr> Signed-off-by: David S.

Richard Alpe says: ==================== tipc: new netlink API v3 The old API is not removed. The new API is separated from the old because of a bug in the old tipc-config utility using it. When adding commands to the existing genl_ops struct the get-family response message grows to a point where it overflows the small receive buffer in tipc-config, subsequently breaking the tool. Hence the two genl_family and genl_ops structs. The new headers are placed in a new file called tipc_netlink.h rather than added to tipc_config.h as they where in previous versions of this patchset. /v3 v2 Redesigned "socket list command" to address David Millers comments in net-next v1 of this patchset. Simply put the problem is that we can have an arbitrary amount of sockets with an arbitrary amount of associated publications. In the previous patchset this was solved by nesting as many publications as possible into a socket. If all didn't fit it sent the same socket again with the remaining publications. As David Miller pointed out this makes each message malformed as the receiver cannot by the data itself know if it has received a complete set or not. This was flagged outside of the data and the client did the reassembly. o socket 1 o publ 1 o publ 2 o socket 1 o publ 3 o publ 4 In this patchset this is divided into socket listing and publication listing to avoid having nested data of arbitrary size. TIPC_NL_SOCK_GET now dumps all sockets with any nested connection information. However, it no longer include publication information, only a HAS_PUBL flag to indicate whether the socket has publications or not. To compliment this there is a new command TIPC_NL_PUBL_GET which takes a socket as argument and dumps all associated publications. This means that on "top-level" the data is always complete. In the case of "tipc socket list" (new tipc-config -p) it first queries all sockets with TIPC_NL_SOCK_GET and if the socket is published it fetches the publications using TIPC_NL_PUBL_GET. This is slow for large amount of sockets with a low publication count (worst case). However, the integrity is preserved and there is no malformed messages. /v2 This is a new netlink API for TIPC. It's intended to replace the existing ASCII API. It utilizes many of the standard netlink functionalities in the kernel, such as attribute nesting and input polices. There are a couple of reasons for this rewrite. The main and most easily justifiable is that the existing API doesn't scale. Meaning that a TIPC cluster with a larger amount of nodes, publications or ports will rapidly exceed what the exiting API can handle. Resulting in truncated or corrupt responses. In addition to this, the existing ASCII API rarely uses "standard" kernel functions and has several tipc specific functions for sanity checking and string formating. The new API utilizes standard function for pushing data to socket buffers and netlink attribute nesting to logically group data. The new API can handle an arbitrary amount of data for things that are likely to scale up as the TIPC usage and/or cluster size increases. A new user-space tool has been developed to work with this new API. It is called "tipc" and is part of the "tipc-utils" package that comes with many Linux distributions. The new "tipc" tool utilizes standard functions from libnl to format, send, receive and process messages. The tool has borrowed design philosophies from git and the ip tool. Making the syntax resemble that of ip whiles its strong modularity resembles that of git. The existing tool for managing TIPC, "tipc-config" remains in the package, but when built for kernels that has this new API it is replaced by a script-based wrapper that maps the old syntax to the new tool. This way, backwards compatibility is mostly preserved. MORE ABOUT THE CODE The main challenge here is to handle the case where the data is of arbitrary size. This was largely neglected in the old API design. For example when there is a lot of sockets that has a large amount of associated publications. In this specific case we can't assume that all ports nor for that matter all the publications can fit inside a single netlink message. Sending everything in one batch isn't an option as we need to yield for the socket layer to cope. This is solved by using the standard netlink callback for dumping data and releasing the locks when the netlink message is full. The dumping mechanism gets us back and we keep a reference (logical) to where we where when the message became full. This means that we are not "atomic", what is retrieved by user-space isn't a snapshot at a certain time but rather a continuously updated data set. In the case where we can't find our way back i.e. our logical reference are gone we set a standard flag (NLM_F_DUMP_INTR) to tell user-space that the dump was interrupted. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.
