The driver handles pointlessly TWO interrupts per packet. The reason is that it enables the status interrupt which fires for each rx and tx packet and it enables the per message object interrupts as well. The status interrupt merily acks or in case of D_CAN ignores the TX/RX state and then the message object interrupt fires. The message objects interrupts are only useful if all message objects have hardware filters activated. But we don't have that and its not simple to implement in that driver without rewriting it completely. So we can ditch the message object interrupts and handle the RX/TX right away from the status interrupt. Instead of TWO we handle ONE. Note: We must keep the TXIE/RXIE bits in the message buffers because the status interrupt alone is not reliable enough in corner cases. If we ever have the need for HW filtering, then this code needs a complete overhaul and we can think about it then. For now we prefer a lower interrupt load.

Reading the LEC type with return (mode & ENABLED) && (status & LEC_MASK); is not guaranteed to return (status & LEC_MASK) if the enabled bit in mode is set. It's guaranteed to return 0 or !=0. Remove the inline function and call unconditionally into the berr_handling code and return early when the reporting is disabled.

If the allocation of an error skb fails, the state change handling returns w/o doing any work. That leaves the interface in a wreckaged state as the internal status is wrong.

There is no guarantee that the skb is in the same state after calling net_receive_skb(). It might be freed or reused. Not really harmful as its a read access, except you turn on the proper debugging options which catch a use after free. The whole can subsystem is full of this. Copy and paste ....

The state change handler is called with device interrupts disabled already. So no point in disabling them again when we enter bus off state. But what's worse is that we reenable the interrupts at the end of NAPI poll unconditionally. So c_can_start() which is called from the restart timer can trigger interrupts which confuse the hell out of the half reinitialized driver/hw. Remove the pointless device interrupt disable in the BUS_OFF handler and prevent reenabling the device interrupts at the end of the poll routine when the current state is BUS_OFF.

c_can_start() enables interrupts way too early. The first enabling happens when setting the control mode in c_can_chip_config() and then again at the end of the function. But that happens before napi_enable() and that means that an interrupt which comes in will disable interrupts again and call napi_schedule, which ignores the request and the later napi_enable() is not making thinks work either. So the interface is up with all device interrupts disabled. Move the device interrupt after napi_enable() and add it to the other callsites of c_can_start() in c_can_set_mode() and c_can_power_up() Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Tested-by: Alexander Stein <alexander.stein@systec-electronic.com> Signed-off-by: Marc Kleine-Budde <mkl@pengutronix.de>

Eric W. Biederman says: ==================== netlink: Preventing abuse when passing file descriptors. Andy Lutomirski when looking at the networking stack noticed that it is possible to trick privilged processes into calling write on a netlink socket and send netlink messages they did not intend. In particular from time to time there are suid applications that will write to stdout or stderr without checking exactly what kind of file descriptors those are and can be tricked into acting as a limited form of suid cat. In other conversations the magic string CVE-2014-0181 has been used to talk about this issue. This patchset cleans things up a bit, adds some clean abstractions that when used prevent this kind of problem and then finally changes all of the handlers of netlink messages that I could find that call capable to use netlink_ns_capable or an appropriate wrapper. The abstraction netlink_ns_capable verifies that the original creator of the netlink socket a message is sent from had the necessary capabilities as well as verifying that the current sender of a netlink packet has the necessary capabilities. The idea is to prevent file descriptor passing of any form from resulting in a file descriptor that can do more than it can for the creator of the file descriptor. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

It is possible by passing a netlink socket to a more privileged executable and then to fool that executable into writing to the socket data that happens to be valid netlink message to do something that privileged executable did not intend to do. To keep this from happening replace bare capable and ns_capable calls with netlink_capable, netlink_net_calls and netlink_ns_capable calls. Which act the same as the previous calls except they verify that the opener of the socket had the desired permissions as well.

The permission check in sock_diag_put_filterinfo is wrong, and it is so removed from it's sources it is not clear why it is wrong. Move the computation into packet_diag_dump and pass a bool of the result into sock_diag_filterinfo.

The goal of this patch is to fix rtnelink notification. The main problem was about notification for fdb entry with more than one remote. Before the patch, when a remote was added to an existing fdb entry, the kernel advertised the first remote instead of the added one. Also when a remote was removed from a fdb entry with several remotes, the deleted remote was not advertised. Signed-off-by: Nicolas Dichtel <nicolas.dichtel@6wind.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

In ksz9021_load_values_from_of() val2 to val4 aren't tested against their initialization value. This causes the test to always succeed, and this value to be used as if it was loaded from the devicetree instead of being ignored, in case of a missing/invalid property in the ethernet OF device node. As a result, the value "0" is written to the relevant registers. Change the conditions to test against the right initialization value.

Jeff Kirsher says: ==================== Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates This series contains updates to e1000e, igb, ixgbe and i40e. Most notably are Jakub's patches to clean up the Rx time stamping code for ixgbe and the fix up of debug messages with proper termination. Jesse's i40e patch fixes an issue reported by Eric Dumazet that the i40e driver was allowing the hardware to replicate the PSH flag on all segments of a TSO operation. With this fix, we are now configuring the CWR bit to only be set in the first packet of a TSO and we enable TSO_ECN in order to advertise to the stack that we do the right thing on the wire. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.
