2009-10-13udp: Fix udp_poll() and ioctl()Eric Dumazet
udp_poll() can in some circumstances drop frames with incorrect checksums. Problem is we now have to lock the socket while dropping frames, or risk sk_forward corruption. This bug is present since commit 95766fff6b9a78d1 ([UDP]: Add memory accounting.) While we are at it, we can correct ioctl(SIOCINQ) to also drop bad frames.

2009-10-13WAN: fix Cisco HDLC handshaking.Krzysztof Halasa
Cisco HDLC uses keepalive packets and sequence numbers to determine link state. In rare cases both ends could transmit keepalive packets at the same time, causing the received sequence numbers to be treated as incorrect. Now we accept our current sequence number as well as the previous one. Signed-off-by: Krzysztof Hałasa <khc@pm.waw.pl> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2009-10-13tcp: fix tcp_defer_accept to consider the timeoutWilly Tarreau
I was trying to use TCP_DEFER_ACCEPT and noticed that if the client does not talk, the connection is never accepted and remains in SYN_RECV state until the retransmits expire, where it finally is deleted. This is bad when some firewall such as netfilter sits between the client and the server because the firewall sees the connection in ESTABLISHED state while the server will finally silently drop it without sending an RST. This behaviour contradicts the man page which says it should wait only for some time : TCP_DEFER_ACCEPT (since Linux 2.4) Allows a listener to be awakened only when data arrives on the socket. Takes an integer value (seconds), this can bound the maximum number of attempts TCP will make to complete the connection. This option should not be used in code intended to be portable. Also, looking at ipv4/tcp.c, a retransmit counter is correctly computed : case TCP_DEFER_ACCEPT: icsk->icsk_accept_queue.rskq_defer_accept = 0; if (val > 0) { /* Translate value in seconds to number of * retransmits */ while (icsk->icsk_accept_queue.rskq_defer_accept < 32 && val > ((TCP_TIMEOUT_INIT / HZ) << icsk->icsk_accept_queue.rskq_defer_accept)) icsk->icsk_accept_queue.rskq_defer_accept++; icsk->icsk_accept_queue.rskq_defer_accept++; } break; ==> rskq_defer_accept is used as a counter of retransmits. But in tcp_minisocks.c, this counter is only checked. And in fact, I have found no location which updates it. So I think that what was intended was to decrease it in tcp_minisocks whenever it is checked, which the trivial patch below does. Signed-off-by: Willy Tarreau <w@1wt.eu> Signed-off-by: David S.

2009-10-12mac80211: document ieee80211_rx() context requirementJohannes Berg
ieee80211_rx() must be called with softirqs disabled since the networking stack requires this for netif_rx() and some code in mac80211 can assume that it can not be processing its own tasklet and this call at the same time. It may be possible to remove this requirement after a careful audit of mac80211 and doing any needed locking improvements in it along with disabling softirqs around netif_rx(). An alternative might be to push all packet processing to process context in mac80211, instead of to the tasklet, and add other synchronisation.

2009-10-12mac80211: fix ibss raceJohannes Berg
When a scan completes, we call ieee80211_sta_find_ibss(), which is also called from other places. When the scan was done in software, there's no problem as both run from the single-threaded mac80211 workqueue and are thus serialised against each other, but with hardware scan the completion can be in a different context and race against callers of this function from the workqueue (e.g. due to beacon RX). So instead of calling ieee80211_sta_find_ibss() directly, just arm the timer and have it fire, scheduling the work, which will invoke ieee80211_sta_find_ibss() (if that is appropriate in the current state).

2009-10-07iwlwifi: incorrect method used for finding valid OTP blocksJay Sternberg
The address stored in the next link address is a word address but when reading the OTP blocks, a byte address is used. Also if the blocks are full and the last link pointer is not zero, then none of the blocks are valid so return an error. The algorithm is simply valid blocks have a next address and that address's contents is zero. Using the wrong address for the next link address gets arbitrary data, obviously. In cases seen, the first block is considered valid when it is not. If the block has in fact been invalidated there may be old data or there may be no data, bad data, or partial data, there is no way of telling. Without this patch it is possible that a device with valid OTP data is unable to work.

2009-10-07mac80211: fix vlan and optimise RXJohannes Berg
When receiving data frames, we can send them only to the interface they belong to based on transmitting station (this doesn't work for probe requests). Also, don't try to handle other frames for AP_VLAN at all since those interface should only receive data. Additionally, the transmit side must check that the station we're sending a frame to is actually on the interface we're transmitting on, and not transmit packets to functions that live on other interfaces, so validate that as well. Another bug fix is needed in sta_info.c where in the VLAN case when adding/removing stations we overwrite the sdata variable we still need.
