room in the skb anymore to receive a full packet, eventually leading

Resetting the skb->data pointer to skb->head + NET_SKB_PAD before

When the i2400m is connected to a network, the host interface (USB)
cannot be suspended. For that to happen, the device has to have
negotiated with the basestation to put the link on IDLE state.

If the host tries to put the device in standby while it is connected
but not idle, the device resets, as the driver should not do that.

To avoid triggering that, when the USB susbsytem requires the driver
to autosuspend the device, the driver checks if the device is not yet
idle. If it is not, the request is rejected (will be retried again
later on after the autosuspend timeout). At some point the device will
enter idle and the request will succeed (unless of course, there is

net: fix rtable leak in net/ipv4/route.c

Alexander V. Lukyanov found a regression in 2.6.29 and made a complete
analysis found in http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13339
Quoted here because its a perfect one :

begin_of_quotation
 2.6.29 patch has introduced flexible route cache rebuilding. Unfortunately the
 patch has at least one critical flaw, and another problem.

 rt_intern_hash calculates rthi pointer, which is later used for new entry
 insertion. The same loop calculates cand pointer which is used to clean the
 list. If the pointers are the same, rtable leak occurs, as first the cand is
 removed then the new entry is appended to it.

 This leak leads to unregister_netdevice problem (usage count > 0).

 Another problem of the patch is that it tries to insert the entries in certain
 order, to facilitate counting of entries distinct by all but QoS parameters.
 Unfortunately, referencing an existing rtable entry moves it to list beginning,
 to speed up further lookups, so the carefully built order is destroyed.

 For the first problem the simplest patch it to set rthi=0 when rthi==cand, but
 it will also destroy the ordering.
end_of_quotation

Problematic commit is 1080d709fb9d8cd4392f93476ee46a9d6ea05a5b
(net: implement emergency route cache rebulds when gc_elasticity is exceeded)

Trying to keep dst_entries ordered is too complex and breaks the fact that
order should depend on the frequency of use for garbage collection.

A possible fix is to make rt_intern_hash() simpler, and only makes
rt_check_expire() a litle bit smarter, being able to cope with an arbitrary
entries order. The added loop is running on cache hot data, while cpu
is prefetching next object, so should be unnoticied.

iwlwifi: do not cancel delayed work inside spin_lock_irqsave

Calling cancel_delayed_work() from inside
spin_lock_irqsave, introduces a potential deadlock.

As explained by Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net>

A - lock
T - timer

phase                   CPU 1           CPU 2
---------------------------------------------

some place that calls
cancel_timer_sync()
(which is the | code)
                                        lock-irq(A)
|                                       "lock-irq"(T)
|                                       "unlock"(T)
|                                       wait(T)
                                        unlock(A)

timer softirq
                        "lock"(T)
                        run(T)
                        "unlock"(T)

irq handler
          lock(A)
          unlock(A)

Now all that again, interleaved, leading to deadlock:

                                        lock-irq(A)
                        "lock"(T)
                         run(T)
IRQ during or maybe
before run(T) -->        lock(A)
                                        "lock-irq"(T)
                                        wait(T)

We fix this by moving the call to cancel_delayed_work() into workqueue.
There are cases where the work may not actually be queued or running
at the time we are trying to cancel it, but cancel_delayed_work() is
able to deal with this.

Also cleanup iwl_set_mode related to this call. This function
(iwl_set_mode) is only called when bringing interface up and there will
thus not be any scanning done. No need to try to cancel scanning.

15 years agowext: verify buffer size for SIOCSIWENCODEEXT
Johannes Berg [Wed, 13 May 2009 10:04:30 +0000 (12:04 +0200)]
wext: verify buffer size for SIOCSIWENCODEEXT

Another design flaw in wireless extensions (is anybody
surprised?) in the way it handles the iw_encode_ext
structure: The structure is part of the 'extra' memory
but contains the key length explicitly, instead of it
just being the length of the extra buffer - size of
the struct and using the explicit key length only for
the get operation (which only writes it).

Therefore, we have this layout:

extra: +-------------------------+
       | struct iw_encode_ext  { |
       |     ...                 |
       |     u16 key_len;        |
       |     u8 key[0];          |
       | };                      |
       +-------------------------+
       | key material            |
       +-------------------------+

Now, all drivers I checked use ext->key_len without
checking that both key_len and the struct fit into the
extra buffer that has been copied from userspace. This
leads to a buffer overrun while reading that buffer,
depending on the driver it may be possible to specify
arbitrary key_len or it may need to be a proper length
for the key algorithm specified.

Thankfully, this is only exploitable by root, but root
can actually cause a segfault or use kernel memory as
a key (which you can even get back with siocgiwencode
or siocgiwencodeext from the key buffer).

Fix this by verifying that key_len fits into the buffer
along with struct iw_encode_ext.

DHCPOFFER after it has already sent out a new DHCPDISCOVER message from
a second interface.  The client then sends out a DHCPREQUEST from the
second interface, but the server doesn't recognize the device and
rejects the request.

This patch simply tracks the current device being configured and throws
away the OFFER if it is not intended for the current device.  A more
sophisticated approach would be to put the OFFER information into the

  WARNING: at kernel/softirq.c:143 warn_slowpath_null+0x1c/0x20()

because now that warn_slowpath_null() is in the call path, the
__builtin_return_address(0) returns that, rather than the place that
caused the warning.

Fix this by splitting up the warn_slowpath_null/fmt cases differently,
using a common helper function, and getting the return address in the
right place.  This also happens to avoid the unnecessary stack usage for

Benjamin Herrenschmidt [Thu, 14 May 2009 20:16:47 +0000 (20:16 +0000)]
powerpc: Fix PCI ROM access

A couple of issues crept in since about 2.6.27 related to accessing PCI
device ROMs on various powerpc machines.

First, historically, we don't allocate the ROM resource in the resource
tree. I'm not entirely certain of why, I susepct they often contained
garbage on x86 but it's hard to tell. This causes the current generic
code to always call pci_assign_resource() when trying to access the said
ROM from sysfs, which will try to re-assign some new address regardless
of what the ROM BAR was already set to at boot time. This can be a
problem on hypervisor platforms like pSeries where we aren't supposed
to move PCI devices around (and in fact probably can't).

Second, our code that generates the PCI tree from the OF device-tree
(instead of doing config space probing) which we mostly use on pseries
at the moment, didn't set the (new) flag IORESOURCE_SIZEALIGN on any
resource. That means that any attempt at re-assigning such a resource
with pci_assign_resource() would fail due to resource_alignment()
returning 0.

This fixes this by doing these two things:

 - The code that calculates resource flags based on the OF device-node
is improved to set IORESOURCE_SIZEALIGN on any valid BAR, and while at
it also set IORESOURCE_READONLY for ROMs since we were lacking that too

 - We now allocate ROM resources as part of the resource tree. However
to limit the chances of nasty conflicts due to busted firmwares, we
only do it on the second pass of our two-passes allocation scheme,
so that all valid and enabled BARs get precedence.

This brings pSeries back the ability to access PCI ROMs via sysfs (and
thus initialize various video cards from X etc...).

powerpc/cell: Make ptcal more reliable

There have been a series of checkstops on QS21 related to
ptcal being set up incorrectly. On systems that only
have memory on a single node, ptcal fails when it gets
a pointer to memory on the remote node.

Moreover, agressive prefetching in memcpy and other
functions may accidentally touch the first cache line
of the page that we reserve for ptcal, which causes
an ECC checkstop.

We now allocate pages only from the specified node, moves the
ptcal area into the middle of the allocated page to avoid
potential prefetch problems and prints the address of the
ptcal area to facilitate diagnostics.

powerpc/mpic: Fix incorrect allocation of interrupt rev-map

Before when we were setting up the irq host map for mpic we passed in
just isu_size for the size of the linear map.  However, for a number of
mpic implementations we have no isu (thus pass in 0) and will end up
with a no linear map (size = 0).  This causes us to always call

powerpc: Fix oprofile sampling of marked events on POWER7

Description
-----------
Change ppc64 oprofile kernel driver to use the SLOT bits (MMCRA[37:39]only on
older processors where those bits are defined.

Background
----------
The performance monitor unit of the 64-bit POWER processor family has the
ability to collect accurate instruction-level samples when profiling on marked
events (i.e., "PM_MRK_<event-name>").  In processors prior to POWER6, the MMCRA
register contained "slot information" that the oprofile kernel driver used to
adjust the value latched in the SIAR at the time of a PMU interrupt.  But as of
POWER6, these slot bits in MMCRA are no longer necessary for oprofile to use,
since the SIAR itself holds the accurate sampled instruction address.  With
POWER6, these MMCRA slot bits were zero'ed out by hardware so oprofile's use of
these slot bits was, in effect, a NOP.  But with POWER7, these bits are no
longer zero'ed out; however, they serve some other purpose rather than slot
information.  Thus, using these bits on POWER7 to adjust the SIAR value results
in samples being attributed to the wrong instructions.  The attached patch
changes the oprofile kernel driver to ignore these slot bits on all newer
processors starting with POWER6.
