Map the IPv6 header's destination multicast address to an ethernet source address instead of the MLD queries multicast address. For instance for a general MLD query (multicast address in the MLD query set to ::), this would wrongly be mapped to 33:33:00:00:00:00, although an MLD queries destination MAC should always be 33:33:00:00:00:01 which matches the IPv6 header's multicast destination ff02::1.

Currently the multicast bridge snooping support is not active for link local multicast. I assume this has been done to leave important multicast data untouched, like IPv6 Neighborhood Discovery. In larger, bridged, local networks it could however be desirable to optimize for instance local multicast audio/video streaming too. With the transient flag in IPv6 multicast addresses we have an easy way to optimize such multimedia traffic without tempering with the high priority multicast data from well-known addresses. This patch alters the multicast bridge snooping for IPv6, to take effect for transient multicast addresses instead of non-link-local addresses.

We actually want a pointer to the grec_nsrcr and not the following field. Otherwise we can get very high values for *nsrcs as the first two bytes of the IPv6 multicast address are being used instead, leading to a failing pskb_may_pull() which results in MLDv2 reports not being parsed.

The protocol type for IPv6 entries in the hash table for multicast bridge snooping is falsely set to ETH_P_IP, marking it as an IPv4 address, instead of setting it to ETH_P_IPV6, which results in negative look-ups in the hash table later.

Fix a bug that undo_retrans is incorrectly decremented when undo_marker is not set or undo_retrans is already 0. This happens when sender receives more DSACK ACKs than packets retransmitted during the current undo phase. This may also happen when sender receives DSACK after the undo operation is completed or cancelled. Fix another bug that undo_retrans is incorrectly incremented when sender retransmits an skb and tcp_skb_pcount(skb) > 1 (TSO). This case is rare but not impossible.

From: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@xmission.com> In the beginning with batching unreg_list was a list that was used only once in the lifetime of a network device (I think). Now we have calls using the unreg_list that can happen multiple times in the life of a network device like dev_deactivate and dev_close that are also using the unreg_list. In addition in unregister_netdevice_queue we also do a list_move because for devices like veth pairs it is possible that unregister_netdevice_queue will be called multiple times. So I think the change below to fix dev_deactivate which Eric D. missed will fix this problem. Now to go test that. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

commit 5fa782c2 re-worked the handling of unknown parameters. sctp_init_cause_fixed() can now return -ENOSPC if there is not enough tailroom in the error chunk skb. When this happens, the error header is not appended to the error chunk. In that case, the payload of the unknown parameter should not be appended either.

Eric W. Biderman and Michal Hocko reported various memory corruptions that we suspected to be related to a LIST head located on stack, that was manipulated after thread left function frame (and eventually exited, so its stack was freed and reused). Eric Dumazet suggested the problem was probably coming from commit 44345724 (net: factorize sync-rcu call in unregister_netdevice_many) This patch fixes __dev_close() and dev_close() to properly deinit their respective LIST_HEAD(single) before exiting.

When list debugging is enabled, we aim to readably show list corruption errors, and the basic list_add/list_del operations end up having extra debugging code in them to do some basic validation of the list entries. However, "list_del_init()" and "list_move[_tail]()" ended up avoiding the debug code due to how they were written. This fixes that. So the _next_ time we have list_move() problems with stale list entries, we'll hopefully have an easier time finding them.. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Uwe pointed out that my alarm based UIE emulation is not sufficient to replace the older timer/polling based UIE emulation on devices where there is no alarm irq. This causes rtc devices without alarms to return -EINVAL to UIE ioctls. The fix is to re-instate the old timer/polling method for devices without alarm irqs. This patch reverts the following commits: 042620a0 - Remove UIE emulation 1daeddd5 - Cleanup removed UIE emulation declaration b5cc8ca1 - Remove Kconfig symbol for UIE emulation The emulation mode will still need to be wired-in with a following patch before it will work.

If management firmware is present and the device is down, the firmware will assume control of the phy.

Without calling of netif_carrier_off at the end of the probe the operstate is unknown when the device is initially opened. By default the carrier is on so when the device is opened and netif_carrier_on is called the link watch event is not fired and operstate remains zero (unknown).

There is a double completion associated with error handling for RC QPs. The sequence is: - The do_rc_ack() routine fields an RNR nack and there are 0 rnr_retries configured on the QP. - qib_error_qp() stops the pending timer - qib_rc_send_complete() is called from sdma_complete() - qib_rc_send_complete() starts the timer because the msb of the psn just completed says an ack is needed. - a bunch of flushes occur as ipoib posts WQEs to an error'ed QP - rc_timeout() calls qib_restart_rc() - qib_restart_rc() calls qib_send_complete() with a IB_WC_RETRY_EXC_ERR on a wqe that has already been completed in the past The fix avoids starting the timer since another packet will never arrive.

Assigning a socket in timewait state to skb->sk can trigger kernel oops, e.g. in nfnetlink_log, which does: if (skb->sk) { read_lock_bh(&skb->sk->sk_callback_lock); if (skb->sk->sk_socket && skb->sk->sk_socket->file) ... in the timewait case, accessing sk->sk_callback_lock and sk->sk_socket is invalid. Either all of these spots will need to add a test for sk->sk_state != TCP_TIME_WAIT, or xt_TPROXY must not assign a timewait socket to skb->sk. This does the latter. If a TW socket is found, assign the tproxy nfmark, but skip the skb->sk assignment, thus mimicking behaviour of a '-m socket .. -j MARK/ACCEPT' re-routing rule. The 'SYN to TW socket' case is left unchanged -- we try to redirect to the listener socket.

Systems containing an 82599EB and running a backported driver from upstream were panicing on boot. It turns out hw->mac.ops.setup_sfp is only set for 82599, so one should check to be sure that pointer is set before continuing in ixgbe_sfp_config_module_task.
