      3c59x: Remove atomic context inside vortex_{set|get}_wol · 84176b7b

      There is no need to use spinlocks in vortex_{set|get}_wol.
      This also fixes a bug:

      vortex_set_wol protected with a spinlock, but nested  acpi_set_WOL acquires a mutex inside atomic context.
      Ethtool operations are already serialized by RTNL mutex, so it is safe to drop the locks.

      tcp: Prevent overzealous packetization by SWS logic. · 01f83d69
      Alexey Kuznetsov authored
      If peer uses tiny MSS (say, 75 bytes) and similarly tiny advertised
      window, the SWS logic will packetize to half the MSS unnecessarily.
      
      This causes problems with some embedded devices.
      
      However for large MSS devices we do want to half-MSS packetize
      otherwise we never get enough packets into the pipe for things
      like fast retransmit and recovery to work.
      
      Be careful also to handle the case where MSS > window, otherwise
      we'll never send until the probe timer.

      ipv4: force_igmp_version ignored when a IGMPv3 query received · 79981563
      Bob Arendt authored
      After all these years, it turns out that the
          /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/*/force_igmp_version
      parameter isn't fully implemented.
      
      *Symptom*:
      When set force_igmp_version to a value of 2, the kernel should only perform
      multicast IGMPv2 operations (IETF rfc2236).  An host-initiated Join message
      will be sent as a IGMPv2 Join message.  But if a IGMPv3 query message is
      received, the host responds with a IGMPv3 join message.  Per rfc3376 and
      rfc2236, a IGMPv2 host should treat a IGMPv3 query as a IGMPv2 query and
      respond with an IGMPv2 Join message.
      
      *Consequences*:
      This is an issue when a IGMPv3 capable switch is the querier and will only
      issue IGMPv3 queries (which double as IGMPv2 querys) and there's an
      intermediate switch that is only IGMPv2 capable.  The intermediate switch
      processes the initial v2 Join, but fails to recognize the IGMPv3 Join responses
      to the Query, resulting in a dropped connection when the intermediate v2-only
      switch times it out.
      
      *Identifying issue in the kernel source*:
      The issue is in this section of code (in net/ipv4/igmp.c), which is called when
      an IGMP query is received  (from mainline 2.6.36-rc3 gitweb):
       ...
      A IGMPv3 query has a length >= 12 and no sources.  This routine will exit after
      line 880, setting the general query timer (random timeout between 0 and query
      response time).  This calls igmp_gq_timer_expire():
      ...
      .. which only sends a v3 response.  So if a v3 query is received, the kernel
      always sends a v3 response.
      
      IGMP queries happen once every 60 sec (per vlan), so the traffic is low.  A
      IGMPv3 query *is* a strict superset of a IGMPv2 query, so this patch properly
      short circuit's the v3 behaviour.
      
      One issue is that this does not address force_igmp_version=1.  Then again, I've
      never seen any IGMPv1 multicast equipment in the wild.  However there is a lot
      of v2-only equipment. If it's necessary to support the IGMPv1 case as well:
      
      837         if (len == 8 || IGMP_V2_SEEN(in_dev) || IGMP_V1_SEEN(in_dev)) {

      ppp: potential NULL dereference in ppp_mp_explode() · 3429769b
      Dan Carpenter authored
      Smatch complains because we check whether "pch->chan" is NULL and then
      dereference it unconditionally on the next line.  Partly the reason this
      bug was introduced is because code was too complicated.  I've simplified
      it a little.

      net/llc: make opt unsigned in llc_ui_setsockopt() · 339db11b
      Dan Carpenter authored
      The members of struct llc_sock are unsigned so if we pass a negative
      value for "opt" it can cause a sign bug.  Also it can cause an integer
      overflow when we multiply "opt * HZ".
