      ipip, sit: copy parms.name after register_netdevice · 72b36015
      Ted Feng authored
      Same fix as 731abb9c for ipip and sit tunnel.
      Commit 1c5cae81 removed an explicit call to dev_alloc_name in
      ipip_tunnel_locate and ipip6_tunnel_locate, because register_netdevice
      will now create a valid name, however the tunnel keeps a copy of the
      name in the private parms structure. Fix this by copying the name back
      after register_netdevice has successfully returned.
      
      This shows up if you do a simple tunnel add, followed by a tunnel show:
      
      $ sudo ip tunnel add mode ipip remote 10.2.20.211
      $ ip tunnel
      tunl0: ip/ip  remote any  local any  ttl inherit  nopmtudisc
      tunl%d: ip/ip  remote 10.2.20.211  local any  ttl inherit
      $ sudo ip tunnel add mode sit remote 10.2.20.212
      $ ip tunnel
      sit0: ipv6/ip  remote any  local any  ttl 64  nopmtudisc 6rd-prefix 2002::/16
      sit%d: ioctl 89f8 failed: No such device
      sit%d: ipv6/ip  remote 10.2.20.212  local any  ttl inherit

      ipv6: Fix for adding multicast route for loopback device automatically. · 4af04aba
      Li Wei authored
      There is no obvious reason to add a default multicast route for loopback
      devices, otherwise there would be a route entry whose dst.error set to
      -ENETUNREACH that would blocking all multicast packets.
      
      ====================
      
      [ more detailed explanation ]
      
      The problem is that the resulting routing table depends on the sequence
      of interface's initialization and in some situation, that would block all
      muticast packets. Suppose there are two interfaces on my computer
      (lo and eth0), if we initailize 'lo' before 'eth0', the resuting routing
      table(for multicast) would be
      
      # ip -6 route show | grep ff00::
      unreachable ff00::/8 dev lo metric 256 error -101
      ff00::/8 dev eth0 metric 256
      
      When sending multicasting packets, routing subsystem will return the first
      route entry which with a error set to -101(ENETUNREACH).
      
      I know the kernel will set the default ipv6 address for 'lo' when it is up
      and won't set the default multicast route for it, but there is no reason to
      stop 'init' program from setting address for 'lo', and that is exactly what
      systemd did.
      
      I am sure there is something wrong with kernel or systemd, currently I preferred
      kernel caused this problem.

      ssb: fix init regression with SoCs · 329456d1
      Hauke Mehrtens authored
      This fixes a Data bus error on some SoCs. The first fix for this
      problem did not solve it on all devices.

              ssb: fix init regression of hostmode PCI core
      
      In ssb_pcicore_fix_sprom_core_index() the sprom on the PCI core is
      accessed, but the sprom only exists when the ssb bus is connected over
      a PCI bus to the rest of the system and not when the SSB Bus is the
      main system bus. SoCs sometimes have a PCI host controller and there
      this code will not be executed, but there are some old SoCs with an PCI
      controller in client mode around and ssb_pcicore_fix_sprom_core_index()
      should not be called on these devices too. The PCI controller on these
      devices are unused, but without this fix it results in an Data bus
      error when it gets initialized.
