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().

arcrimi_probe() calls BUGMSG() before register_netdev() happens. BUGMSG() itself prints dev->name, but as the format string hasn't been expanded by register_netdev() yet, the output contains bogus device name such as arc%d: Given: node 00h, shmem 0h, irq 0 As we don't know the device name yet, just drop the prefix completely from the debugging messages.

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.

If either call to pcan_usb_pro_send_req() in drivers/net/can/usb/peak_usb/pcan_usb_pro.c::pcan_usb_pro_init() fails, we'll leak the memory we allocated to 'usb_if' with kzalloc() when the 'usb_if' variable goes out of scope without having been assigned to anything as we 'return err;'.

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. This patch fixes the receive path so that the skb pointers are fixed up after the data has been read from the device, The error path is also fixed to use number of words consistently and prevent erroneous FIFO fastforwarding when skipping over bad data.

We set intr mask before its handler is registered, this does not work well when 8139cp is sharing irq line with other devices. As the irq could be enabled by the device before 8139cp's hander is registered which may lead unhandled irq. Fix this by introducing an helper cp_irq_enable() and call it after request_irq().

Commit e675f0cc ("ppp: Don't stop and restart queue on every TX packet") introduced a race condition which could leave the net queue stopped even when the channel is no longer busy. By calling netif_stop_queue() from ppp_start_xmit(), based on the return value from ppp_xmit_process() but *after* all the locks have been dropped, we could potentially do so *after* the channel has actually finished transmitting and attempted to re-wake the queue. Fix this by moving the netif_stop_queue() into ppp_xmit_process() under the xmit lock. I hadn't done this previously, because it gets called from other places than ppp_start_xmit(). But I now think it's the better option. The net queue *should* be stopped if the channel becomes congested due to writes from pppd, anyway.

If the ipv6 dst cache which copy from the dst generated by ICMPV6 RA packet. this dst cache will not check expire because it has no RTF_EXPIRES flag. So this dst cache will always be used until the dst gc run. Change the struct dst_entry,add a union contains new pointer from and expires. When rt6_info.rt6i_flags has no RTF_EXPIRES flag,the dst.expires has no use. we can use this field to point to where the dst cache copy from. The dst.from is only used in IPV6. rt6_check_expired check if rt6_info.dst.from is expired. ip6_rt_copy only set dst.from when the ort has flag RTF_ADDRCONF and RTF_DEFAULT.then hold the ort. ip6_dst_destroy release the ort. Add some functions to operate the RTF_EXPIRES flag and expires(from) together. and change the code to use these new adding functions. Changes from v5: modify ip6_route_add and ndisc_router_discovery to use new adding functions. Only set dst.from when the ort has flag RTF_ADDRCONF and RTF_DEFAULT.then hold the ort.

This leads to every TCP packet getting reallocated by the wireless code in order to have the right amount of tailroom available.

Commit 6e6f0a1f ("panic: don't print redundant backtraces on oops") causes a regression where no stack trace will be printed at all for the case where kernel code calls panic() directly while not processing an oops, and of course there are 100's of instances of this type of call. The original commit executed the check (!oops_in_progress), but this will always be false because just before the dump_stack() there is a call to bust_spinlocks(1), which does the following: void __attribute__((weak)) bust_spinlocks(int yes) { if (yes) { ++oops_in_progress; The proper way to resolve the problem that original commit tried to solve is to avoid printing a stack dump from panic() when the either of the following conditions is true: 1) TAINT_DIE has been set (this is done by oops_end()) This indicates and oops has already been printed. 2) oops_in_progress > 1 This guards against the rare case where panic() is invoked a second time, or in between oops_begin() and oops_end() Signed-off-by: Jason Wessel <jason.wessel@windriver.com> Cc: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> [3.3+] Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

The ST variants of the PL031 all require bit 26 in the control register to be set before they work properly.

This reverts commit c38446cc. Before the commit, the code makes senses to me but not after the commit. The "nr_reclaimed" is the number of pages reclaimed by scanning through the memcg's lru lists. The "nr_to_reclaim" is the target value for the whole function. For example, we like to early break the reclaim if reclaimed 32 pages under direct reclaim (not DEF_PRIORITY). After the reverted commit, the target "nr_to_reclaim" is decremented each time by "nr_reclaimed" but we still use it to compare the "nr_reclaimed". It just doesn't make sense to me...

The race is as follows: Suppose a multi-threaded task forks a new process (on cpu A), thus bumping up the ref count on all the pages. While the fork is occurring (and thus we have marked all the PTEs as read-only), another thread in the original process (on cpu B) tries to write to a huge page, taking an access violation from the write-protect and calling hugetlb_cow(). Now, suppose the fork() fails. It will undo the COW and decrement the ref count on the pages, so the ref count on the huge page drops back to 1. Meanwhile hugetlb_cow() also decrements the ref count by one on the original page, since the original address space doesn't need it any more, having copied a new page to replace the original page. This leaves the ref count at zero, and when we call unlock_page(), we panic. fork on CPU A fault on CPU B ============= ============== ... down_write(&parent->mmap_sem); down_write_nested(&child->mmap_sem); ... while duplicating vmas if error break; ... up_write(&child->mmap_sem); up_write(&parent->mmap_sem); ... down_read(&parent->mmap_sem); ... lock_page(page); handle COW page_mapcount(old_page) == 2 alloc and prepare new_page ... handle error page_remove_rmap(page); put_page(page); ... fold new_page into pte page_remove_rmap(page); put_page(page); ... oops ==> unlock_page(page); up_read(&parent->mmap_sem); The solution is to take an extra reference to the page while we are holding the lock on it.

RTC stores time and date in several registers. Due to the fact that these registers can't be read instantaneously, there is a chance that reading from counting registers gives an error of one minute, one hour, one day, etc. To address this issue, the RTC has hardware support to copy the RTC counting registers to static shadowed registers. The current implementation does not use this feature, and in a stress test, we can reproduce this error at a rate of around two times per 300000 readings. Fix the implementation to ensure that the right snapshot of time is captured.
