MAX_ADDR_LEN is 32. ETH_ALEN is 6. mac->sa_data is a 14 byte array, so the memcpy() is doing a read past the end of the array. I asked about this on netdev and Ben Hutchings told me it's supposed to be copying ETH_ALEN bytes (thanks Ben). Signed-off-by: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Alexander Beregalov reported skb_over_panic errors and provided stack trace. I occurs commit a21d4572 (tcp: avoid order-1 allocations on wifi and tx path) added a regression, when a retransmit is done after a partial ACK. tcp_retransmit_skb() tries to aggregate several frames if the first one has enough available room to hold the following ones payload. This is controlled by /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_retrans_collapse tunable (default : enabled) Problem is we must make sure _pskb_trim_head() doesnt fool skb_availroom() when pulling some bytes from skb (this pull is done when receiver ACK part of the frame).

From John: Another batch of fixes intended for 3.4... First up, we have a minor signedness fix for libertas from Amitkumar Karwar. Next, Arend gives us a brcm80211 fix for correctly enabling Tx FIFOs on channels 12 and 13. Bing Zhao gives us some register address corrections for mwifiex. Felix give us a trio of fixes -- one for ath9k to wake the hardware properly from full sleep, one for mac80211 to properly handle packets in cooked monitor mode, and one for ensuring that the proper HT mode selection is honored. Hauke gives us a bcma fix for handling the lack of an sprom. Jonathon Bither gives us an ath5k fix for a missing THIS_MODULE build issue, and another ath5k fix for an io mapping leak. Lukasz Kucharczyk fixes a bitwise check in cfg80211, and Sujith gives us an ath9k fix for assigning sequence numbers for fragmented frames. Finally, we have a MAINTAINERS change from Wey-Yi Guy -- congrats to Johannes Berg for taking the lead on iwlwifi. :-) Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Under heavy load (flood ping) it is possible for the MDIO timeout to expire before the loop checks the GO bit again. This patch adds an additional check whether the operation was done before actually returning -ETIMEDOUT. To reproduce this bug, flood ping the device, e.g., ping -f -l 1000 After some time, a "timed out waiting for user access" warning may appear. And even worse, link may go down since the PHY reported a timeout.

Functionally, this change is a NOP. Semantically, rt6_clean_expires() wants to do rt->dst.from = NULL instead of rt->dst.expires = 0. It is clearing the RTF_EXPIRES flag, so the union is going to be treated as a pointer (dst.from) not a long (dst.expires). Signed-off-by: Jiri Bohac <jbohac@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: David S.

Commit 1716a961 (ipv6: fix problem with expired dst cache) broke PMTU discovery. rt6_update_expires() calls dst_set_expires(), which only updates dst->expires if it has not been set previously (expires == 0) or if the new expires is earlier than the current dst->expires. rt6_update_expires() needs to zero rt->dst.expires, otherwise it will contain ivalid data left over from rt->dst.from and will confuse dst_set_expires().

This patch makes it so that we identify FCoE rings earlier than ixgbe_set_rx_buffer_len. Instead we identify the Rx FCoE rings at allocation time in ixgbe_alloc_q_vector. The motivation behind this change is to avoid memory corruption when FCoE is enabled. Without this change we were initializing the rings at 0, and 2K on systems with 4K pages, then when we bumped the buffer size to 4K with order 1 pages we were accessing offsets 2K and 6K instead of 0 and 4K. This was resulting in memory corruptions.

Cooked monitor rx was recently changed to use ieee80211_add_rx_radiotap_header instead of generating only limited radiotap information. ieee80211_add_rx_radiotap_header assumes that FCS info is still present if the hardware supports receiving it, however when cooked monitor rx packets are processed, FCS info has already been stripped.

In register_netdevice(), when ndo_init() is successful and later some error occurred, ndo_uninit() will be called. So dummy deivce is desirable to implement ndo_uninit() method to free percpu stats for this case. And, ndo_uninit() is also called along with dev->destructor() when device is unregistered, so in order to prevent dev->dstats from being freed twice, dev->destructor is modified to free_netdev().

A parameter set exists for WRED mode, called wred_set, to hold the same values for qavg and qidlestart across all VQs. The WRED mode values had been previously held in the VQ for the default DP. After these values were moved to wred_set, the VQ for the default DP was no longer created automatically (so that it could be omitted on purpose, to have packets in the default DP enqueued directly to the device without using RED). However, gred_dump() was overlooked during that change; in WRED mode it still reads qavg/qidlestart from the VQ for the default DP, which might not even exist. As a result, this command sequence will cause an oops: tc qdisc add dev $DEV handle $HANDLE parent $PARENT gred setup \ DPs 3 default 2 grio tc qdisc change dev $DEV handle $HANDLE gred DP 0 prio 8 $RED_OPTIONS tc qdisc change dev $DEV handle $HANDLE gred DP 1 prio 8 $RED_OPTIONS This fixes gred_dump() in WRED mode to use the values held in wred_set.

bcma should check for a fallback sprom every time it can not find a sprom on the card itself or a normal external sprom mapped into the memory of the chip. When otp sprom support was introduced it tried to read out the sprom from the wireless chip also if no otp sprom was available. This caused a Data bus error in bcma_sprom_get() when reading out the sprom for the SoC. This fixes a regression introduced in commit: commit 10d8493c Author: Arend van Spriel <arend@broadcom.com> Date: Tue Mar 6 15:50:48 2012 +0100 bcma: add support for on-chip OTP memory used for SPROM storage This patch was tested on a Netgear WNDR3400 (Broadcom BCM4718 SoC).

At the beginning of ks_rcv(), a for loop retrieves the header information relevant to all the frames stored in the mac's internal buffers. The number of pending frames is stored as an 8 bits field in KS_RXFCTR. If interrupts are disabled long enough to allow for more than 32 frames to accumulate in the MAC's internal buffers, a buffer overflow occurs. This patch fixes the problem by making the driver's frame_head_info buffer big enough. Well actually, since the chip appears to have 12K of internal rx buffers and the shortest ethernet frame should be 64 bytes long, maybe the limit could be set to 12*1024/64 = 192 frames, but 255 should be safer.

A workaround was previously put in the driver to reset the device when transitioning to Sx in order to activate the changed settings of the PHY OEM bits (Low Power Link Up, or LPLU, and GbE disable configuration) for 82577/8/9 devices. After further review, it was found such a reset can cause the 82579 to confuse which version of 82579 it actually is and broke LPLU on all 82577/8/9 devices. The workaround during an S0->Sx transition on 82579 (instead of resetting the PHY) is to restart auto-negotiation after the OEM bits are configured; the restart of auto-negotiation activates the new OEM bits as does the reset. With 82577/8, the reset is changed to a generic reset which fixes the LPLU bits getting set wrong.

The SMSC911x driver resets the ->head, ->data and ->tail pointers in the skb on the reset path in order to avoid buffer overflow due to packet padding performed by the hardware.
