2007-09-14[NET]: Fix two issues wrt. SO_BINDTODEVICE.David S. Miller
1) Comments suggest that setting optlen to zero will unbind the socket from whatever device it might be attached to. This hasn't been the case since at least 2.2.x because the first thing this function does is return -EINVAL if 'optlen' is less than sizeof(int). This check also means that passing in a two byte string doesn't work so well. It's almost as if this code was testing with "eth?" patterned strings and nothing else :-) Fix this by breaking the logic of this facility out into a seperate function which validates optlen more appropriately. The optlen==0 and small string cases now work properly. 2) We should reset the cached route of the socket after we have made the device binding changes, not before. Reported by Ben Greear.

2007-09-11[NET]: Do not dereference iov if length is zeroHerbert Xu
When msg_iovlen is zero we shouldn't try to dereference msg_iov. Right now the only thing that tries to do so is skb_copy_and_csum_datagram_iovec. Since the total length should also be zero if msg_iovlen is zero, it's sufficient to check the total length there and simply return if it's zero.

2007-08-14[NET]: Share correct feature code between bridging and bondingHerbert Xu
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8797 shows that the bonding driver may produce bogus combinations of the checksum flags and SG/TSO. For example, if you bond devices with NETIF_F_HW_CSUM and NETIF_F_IP_CSUM you'll end up with a bonding device that has neither flag set. If both have TSO then this produces an illegal combination. The bridge device on the other hand has the correct code to deal with this. In fact, the same code can be used for both. So this patch moves that logic into net/core/dev.c and uses it for both bonding and bridging. In the process I've made small adjustments such as only setting GSO_ROBUST if at least one constituent device supports it.

2007-07-31[NET]: ethtool_perm_addr only has one implementationMatthew Wilcox

2007-07-31[NET]: ethtool ops are the only wayMatthew Wilcox
During the transition to the ethtool_ops way of doing things, we supported calling the device's ->do_ioctl method to allow unconverted drivers to continue working. Those days are long behind us, all in-tree drivers use the ethtool_ops way, and so we no longer need to support this. The bonding driver is the biggest beneficiary of this; it no longer needs to call ioctl() as a fallback if ethtool_ops aren't supported. Also put a proper copyright statement on ethtool.c.

2007-07-31[NET]: Allow netdev REGISTER/CHANGENAME events to failHerbert Xu
This patch adds code to allow errors to be passed up from event handlers of NETDEV_REGISTER and NETDEV_CHANGENAME. It also adds the notifier_from_errno/notifier_to_errnor helpers to pass the errno value up to the notifier caller. If an error is detected when a device is registered, it causes that operation to fail. A NETDEV_UNREGISTER will be sent to all event handlers. Similarly if NETDEV_CHANGENAME fails the original name is restored and a new NETDEV_CHANGENAME event is sent. As such all event handlers must be idempotent with respect to these events. When an event handler is registered NETDEV_REGISTER events are sent for all devices currently registered. Should any of them fail, we will send NETDEV_GOING_DOWN/NETDEV_DOWN/NETDEV_UNREGISTER events to that handler for the devices which have already been registered with it. The handler registration itself will fail. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2007-07-31[NET]: Take dev_base_lock when moving device name hash list entryHerbert Xu
When we added name-based hashing the dev_base_lock was designated as the lock to take when changing the name hash list. Unfortunately, because it was a preexisting lock that just happened to be taken in the right spots we neglected to take it in dev_change_name. The race can affect calles of __dev_get_by_name that do so without taking the RTNL. They may end up walking down the wrong hash chain and end up missing the device that they're looking for.

Because this function is only called by unregister_netdevice, this moving could make this non-global function static, and also remove its declaration in netdevice.h; Any further, function __dev_addr_discard is also just called by dev_mc_discard and dev_unicast_discard, keeping this two functions both in one c file could make __dev_addr_discard also static and remove its declaration in netdevice.h; Futhermore, the sequential call to dev_unicast_discard and then dev_mc_discard in unregister_netdevice have a similar mechanism that: (netif_tx_lock_bh / __dev_addr_discard / netif_tx_unlock_bh), they should merged into one to eliminate duplicates in acquiring and releasing the dev->_xmit_lock, this would be done in my following patch.

2007-07-17Freezer: make kernel threads nonfreezable by defaultRafael J. Wysocki
Currently, the freezer treats all tasks as freezable, except for the kernel threads that explicitly set the PF_NOFREEZE flag for themselves. This approach is problematic, since it requires every kernel thread to either set PF_NOFREEZE explicitly, or call try_to_freeze(), even if it doesn't care for the freezing of tasks at all. It seems better to only require the kernel threads that want to or need to be frozen to use some freezer-related code and to remove any freezer-related code from the other (nonfreezable) kernel threads, which is done in this patch. The patch causes all kernel threads to be nonfreezable by default (ie. to have PF_NOFREEZE set by default) and introduces the set_freezable() function that should be called by the freezable kernel threads in order to unset PF_NOFREEZE. It also makes all of the currently freezable kernel threads call set_freezable(), so it shouldn't cause any (intentional) change of behaviour to appear. Additionally, it updates documentation to describe the freezing of tasks more accurately. [akpm@linux-foundation.org: build fixes] Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

2007-07-16O_CLOEXEC for SCM_RIGHTSUlrich Drepper
Part two in the O_CLOEXEC saga: adding support for file descriptors received through Unix domain sockets. The patch is once again pretty minimal, it introduces a new flag for recvmsg and passes it just like the existing MSG_CMSG_COMPAT flag. I think this bit is not used otherwise but the networking people will know better. This new flag is not recognized by recvfrom and recv. These functions cannot be used for that purpose and the asymmetry this introduces is not worse than the already existing MSG_CMSG_COMPAT situations. The patch must be applied on the patch which introduced O_CLOEXEC. It has to remove static from the new get_unused_fd_flags function but since scm.c cannot live in a module the function still hasn't to be exported. Here's a test program to make sure the code works.

2007-07-15[NET]: Add net_device change_rx_mode callbackPatrick McHardy
Currently the set_multicast_list (and set_rx_mode) callbacks are responsible for configuring the device according to the IFF_PROMISC, IFF_MULTICAST and IFF_ALLMULTI flags and the mc_list (and uc_list in case of set_rx_mode). These callbacks can be invoked from BH context without the rtnl_mutex by dev_mc_add/dev_mc_delete, which makes reading the device flags and promiscous/allmulti count racy. For real hardware drivers that just commit all changes to the hardware this is not a real problem since the stack guarantees to call them for every change, so at least the final call will not race and commit the correct configuration to the hardware. For software devices that want to synchronize promiscous and multicast state to an underlying device however this can cause corruption of the underlying device's flags or promisc/allmulti counts. When the software device is concurrently put in promiscous or allmulti mode while set_multicast_list is invoked from bottem half context, the device might synchronize the change to the underlying device without holding the rtnl_mutex, which races with concurrent changes to the underlying device. Add a dev->change_rx_flags hook that is invoked when any of the flags that affect rx filtering change (under the rtnl_mutex), which allows drivers to perform synchronization immediately and only synchronize the address lists in set_multicast_list/set_rx_mode.

2007-07-13dmaengine: make clients responsible for managing channelsDan Williams
The current implementation assumes that a channel will only be used by one client at a time. In order to enable channel sharing the dmaengine core is changed to a model where clients subscribe to channel-available-events. Instead of tracking how many channels a client wants and how many it has received the core just broadcasts the available channels and lets the clients optionally take a reference. The core learns about the clients' needs at dma_event_callback time. In support of multiple operation types, clients can specify a capability mask to only be notified of channels that satisfy a certain set of capabilities. Changelog: * removed DMA_TX_ARRAY_INIT, no longer needed * dma_client_chan_free -> dma_chan_release: switch to global reference counting only at device unregistration time, before it was also happening at client unregistration time * clients now return dma_state_client to dmaengine (ack, dup, nak) * checkpatch.pl fixes * fixup merge with git-ioat Cc: Chris Leech <christopher.leech@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Shannon Nelson <shannon.nelson@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com> Acked-by: David S.

93ec2c723e3f8a216dde2899aeb85c648672bc6b applied excessive duct tape to the netpoll beast's netpoll_cleanup(), thus substituting one leak with another, and opening up a little buglet :-) net_device->npinfo (netpoll_info) is a shared and refcounted object and cannot simply be set NULL the first time netpoll_cleanup() is called. Otherwise, further netpoll_cleanup()'s see np->dev->npinfo == NULL and become no-ops, thus leaking. And it's a bug too: the first call to netpoll_cleanup() would thus (annoyingly) "disable" other (still alive) netpolls too. Maybe nobody noticed this because netconsole (only user of netpoll) never supported multiple netpoll objects earlier. This is a trivial and obvious one-line fixlet.
