Pull networking fixes from David Miller: 1) IPVS oops'ers: a) Should not reset skb->nf_bridge in forwarding hook (Lin Ming) b) 3.4 commit can cause ip_vs_control_cleanup to be invoked after the ipvs_core_ops are unregistered during rmmod (Julian ANastasov) 2) ixgbevf bringup failure can crash in TX descriptor cleanup (Alexander Duyck) 3) AX25 switch missing break statement hoses ROSE sockets (Alan Cox) 4) CAIF accesses freed per-net memory (Sjur Brandeland) 5) Network cgroup code has out-or-bounds accesses (Eric DUmazet), and accesses freed memory (Gao Feng) 6) Fix a crash in SCTP reported by Dave Jones caused by freeing an association still on a list (Neil HOrman) 7) __netdev_alloc_skb() regresses on GFP_DMA using drivers because that GFP flag is not being retained for the allocation (Eric Dumazet). 8) Missing NULL hceck in sch_sfb netlink message parsing (Alan Cox) 9) bnx2 crashes because TX index iteration is not bounded correctly (Michael Chan) 10) IPoIB generates warnings in TCP queue collapsing (via skb_try_coalesce) because it does not set skb->truesize correctly (Eric Dumazet) 11) vlan_info objects leak for the implicit vlan with ID 0 (Amir Hanania) 12) A fix for TX time stamp handling in gianfar does not transfer socket ownership from one packet to another correctly, resulting in a socket write space imbalance (Eric Dumazet) 13) Julia Lawall found several cases where we do a list iteration, and then at the loop termination unconditionally assume we ended up with real list object, rather than the list head itself (CNIC, RXRPC, mISDN). 14) The bonding driver handles procfs moving incorrectly when a device it manages is moved from one namespace to another (Eric Biederman) 15) Missing memory barriers in stmmac descriptor accesses result in various crashes (Deepak Sikri) 16) Fix handling of broadcast packets in batman-adv (Simon Wunderlich) 17) Properly check the sanity of sendmsg() lengths in ieee802154's dgram_sendmsg(). Dave Jones and others have hit and reported this bug (Sasha Levin) 18) Some drivers (b44 and b43legacy) on 64-bit machines stopped working because of how netdev_alloc_skb() was adjusted. Such drivers should now use alloc_skb() for obtaining bounce buffers. (Eric Dumazet) 19) atl1c mis-managed it's link state in that it stops the queue by hand on link down. The generic networking takes care of that and this double stop locks the queue down. So simply removing the driver's queue stop call fixes the problem (Cloud Ren) 20) Fix out-of-memory due to mis-accounting in net_em packet scheduler (Eric Dumazet) 21) If DCB and SR-IOV are configured at the same time in IXGBE the chip will hang because this is not supported (Alexander Duyck) 22) A commit to stop drivers using netdev->base_addr broke the CNIC driver (Michael Chan) 23) Timeout regression in ipset caused by an attempt to fix an overflow bug (Jozsef Kadlecsik). 24) mac80211 minstrel code allocates memory using incorrect size (Thomas Huehn) 25) llcp_sock_getname() needs to check for a NULL device otherwise we OOPS (Sasha Levin) 26) mwifiex leaks memory (Bing Zhao) 27) Propagate iwlwifi fix to iwlegacy, even when we're not associated we need to monitor for stuck queues in the watchdog handler (Stanislaw Geuszka) * git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net: (44 commits) ipvs: fix oops in ip_vs_dst_event on rmmod ipvs: fix oops on NAT reply in br_nf context ixgbevf: Fix panic when loading driver ax25: Fix missing break MAINTAINERS: reflect actual changes in IEEE 802.15.4 maintainership caif: Fix access to freed pernet memory net: cgroup: fix access the unallocated memory in netprio cgroup ixgbevf: Prevent RX/TX statistics getting reset to zero sctp: Fix list corruption resulting from freeing an association on a list net: respect GFP_DMA in __netdev_alloc_skb() e1000e: fix test for PHY being accessible on 82577/8/9 and I217 e1000e: Correct link check logic for 82571 serdes sch_sfb: Fix missing NULL check bnx2: Fix bug in bnx2_free_tx_skbs().

One of them was recently introduced (during the 3.4 development cycle) while cleaning up the IPVS netns support. They are: * Fix one regression introduced in 3.4 while cleaning up the netns support for IPVS, from Julian Anastasov. * Fix one oops triggered due to resetting the conntrack attached to the skb instead of just putting it in the forward hook, from Lin Ming.

2012-07-17rpmsg: fix dependency on initialization orderFederico Fuga
When rpmsg drivers are built into the kernel, they must not initialize before the rpmsg bus does, otherwise they'd trigger a BUG() in drivers/base/driver.c line 169 (driver_register()). To fix that, and to stop depending on arbitrary linkage ordering of those built-in rpmsg drivers, we make the rpmsg bus initialize at subsys_initcall.

2012-07-17ipvs: fix oops in ip_vs_dst_event on rmmodJulian Anastasov
After commit 39f618b4fd95ae243d940ec64c961009c74e3333 (3.4) "ipvs: reset ipvs pointer in netns" we can oops in ip_vs_dst_event on rmmod ip_vs because ip_vs_control_cleanup is called after the ipvs_core_ops subsys is unregistered and net->ipvs is NULL. Fix it by exiting early from ip_vs_dst_event if ipvs is NULL. It is safe because all services and dests for the net are already freed.

2012-07-17net: cgroup: fix access the unallocated memory in netprio cgroupGao feng
there are some out of bound accesses in netprio cgroup. now before accessing the dev->priomap.priomap array,we only check if the dev->priomap exist.and because we don't want to see additional bound checkings in fast path, so we should make sure that dev->priomap is null or array size of dev->priomap.priomap is equal to max_prioidx + 1; so in write_priomap logic,we should call extend_netdev_table when dev->priomap is null and dev->priomap.priomap_len < max_len. and in cgrp_create->update_netdev_tables logic,we should call extend_netdev_table only when dev->priomap exist and dev->priomap.priomap_len < max_len. and it's not needed to call update_netdev_tables in write_priomap, we can only allocate the net device's priomap which we change through net_prio.ifpriomap. this patch also add a return value for update_netdev_tables & extend_netdev_table, so when new_priomap is allocated failed, write_priomap will stop to access the priomap,and return -ENOMEM back to the userspace to tell the user what happend. Change From v3: 1. add rtnl protect when reading max_prioidx in write_priomap. 2. only call extend_netdev_table when map->priomap_len < max_len, this will make sure array size of dev->map->priomap always bigger than any prioidx. 3. add a function write_update_netdev_table to make codes clear. Change From v2: 1. protect extend_netdev_table by RTNL. 2. when extend_netdev_table failed,call dev_put to reduce device's refcount.

2012-07-17ixgbevf: Prevent RX/TX statistics getting reset to zeroNarendra K
The commit 4197aa7bb81877ebb06e4f2cc1b5fea2da23a7bd implements 64 bit per ring statistics. But the driver resets the 'total_bytes' and 'total_packets' from RX and TX rings in the RX and TX interrupt handlers to zero. This results in statistics being lost and user space reporting RX and TX statistics as zero. This patch addresses the issue by preventing the resetting of RX and TX ring statistics to zero.

As a result, we get a gpf when traversing the hashtable while a freed node corrupts part of the list. Nominally I would think that an mibalanced refcount was responsible for this, but I can't seem to find any obvious imbalance. What I did note however was that the two places where we create an association using sctp_primitive_ASSOCIATE (__sctp_connect and sctp_sendmsg), have failure paths which free a newly created association after calling sctp_primitive_ASSOCIATE. sctp_primitive_ASSOCIATE brings us into the sctp_sf_do_prm_asoc path, which issues a SCTP_CMD_NEW_ASOC side effect, which in turn adds a new association to the aforementioned hash table. the sctp command interpreter that process side effects has not way to unwind previously processed commands, so freeing the association from the __sctp_connect or sctp_sendmsg error path would lead to a freed association remaining on this hash table. I've fixed this but modifying sctp_[un]hash_established to use hlist_del_init, which allows us to proerly use hlist_unhashed to check if the node is on a hashlist safely during a delete. That in turn alows us to safely call sctp_unhash_established in the __sctp_connect and sctp_sendmsg error paths before freeing them, regardles of what the associations state is on the hash list. I noted, while I was doing this, that the __sctp_unhash_endpoint was using hlist_unhsashed in a simmilar fashion, but never nullified any removed nodes pointers to make that function work properly, so I fixed that up in a simmilar fashion. I attempted to test this using a virtual guest running the SCTP_RR test from netperf in a loop while running the trinity fuzzer, both in a loop. I wasn't able to recreate the problem prior to this fix, nor was I able to trigger the failure after (neither of which I suppose is suprising). Given the trace above however, I think its likely that this is what we hit. Signed-off-by: Neil Horman <nhorman@tuxdriver.com> Reported-by: davej@redhat.com CC: davej@redhat.com CC: "David S.

2012-07-16timekeeping: Add missing update call in timekeeping_resume()Thomas Gleixner
The leap second rework unearthed another issue of inconsistent data. On timekeeping_resume() the timekeeper data is updated, but nothing calls timekeeping_update(), so now the update code in the timer interrupt sees stale values. This has been the case before those changes, but then the timer interrupt was using stale data as well so this went unnoticed for quite some time. Add the missing update call, so all the data is consistent everywhere. Reported-by: Andreas Schwab <schwab@linux-m68k.org> Reported-and-tested-by: "Rafael J.

2012-07-16gma500,cdv: Fix the brightness baseAlan Cox
Some desktop environments carefully save and restore the brightness settings from the previous boot. Unfortunately they don't all check to see if the range has changed. The end result is that they restore a brightness of 100/lots not 100/100. As the old driver and the non-free GMA36xx driver both use 0-100 we thus need to go back doing the same thing to avoid users getting a mysterious black screen after boot.

2012-07-16fifo: Do not restart open() if it already found a partnerAnders Kaseorg
If a parent and child process open the two ends of a fifo, and the child immediately exits, the parent may receive a SIGCHLD before its open() returns. In that case, we need to make sure that open() will return successfully after the SIGCHLD handler returns, instead of throwing EINTR or being restarted. Otherwise, the restarted open() would incorrectly wait for a second partner on the other end. The following test demonstrates the EINTR that was wrongly thrown from the parent’s open(). Change .sa_flags = 0 to .sa_flags = SA_RESTART to see a deadlock instead, in which the restarted open() waits for a second reader that will never come. (On my systems, this happens pretty reliably within about 5 to 500 iterations. Others report that it manages to loop ~forever sometimes; YMMV.) #include <sys/stat.h> #include <sys/types.h> #include <sys/wait.h> #include <fcntl.h> #include <signal.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <unistd.h> #define CHECK(x) do if ((x) == -1) {perror(#x); abort();} while(0) void handler(int signum) {} int main() { struct sigaction act = {.sa_handler = handler, .sa_flags = 0}; CHECK(sigaction(SIGCHLD, &act, NULL)); CHECK(mknod("fifo", S_IFIFO | S_IRWXU, 0)); for (;;) { int fd; pid_t pid; putc('.', stderr); CHECK(pid = fork()); if (pid == 0) { CHECK(fd = open("fifo", O_RDONLY)); _exit(0); } CHECK(fd = open("fifo", O_WRONLY)); CHECK(close(fd)); CHECK(waitpid(pid, NULL, 0)); } } This is what I suspect was causing the Git test suite to fail in t9010-svn-fe.sh: http://bugs.debian.org/678852 Signed-off-by: Anders Kaseorg <andersk@mit.edu> Reviewed-by: Jonathan Nieder <jrnieder@gmail.com> Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2012-07-14e1000e: fix test for PHY being accessible on 82577/8/9 and I217Bruce Allan
Occasionally, the PHY can be initially inaccessible when the first read of a PHY register, e.g. PHY_ID1, happens (signified by the returned value 0xFFFF) but subsequent accesses of the PHY work as expected. Add a retry counter similar to how it is done in the generic e1000_get_phy_id(). Also, when the PHY is completely inaccessible (i.e. when subsequent reads of the PHY_IDx registers returns all F's) and the MDIO access mode must be set to slow before attempting to read the PHY ID again, the functions that do these latter two actions expect the SW/FW/HW semaphore is not already set so the semaphore must be released before and re-acquired after calling them otherwise there is an unnecessarily inordinate amount of delay during device initialization.

2012-07-14e1000e: Correct link check logic for 82571 serdesTushar Dave
SYNCH bit and IV bit of RXCW register are sticky. Before examining these bits, RXCW should be read twice to filter out one-time false events and have correct values for these bits. Incorrect values of these bits in link check logic can cause weird link stability issues if auto-negotiation fails.

2012-07-13x86/vsyscall: allow seccomp filter in vsyscall=emulateWill Drewry
If a seccomp filter program is installed, older static binaries and distributions with older libc implementations (glibc 2.13 and earlier) that rely on vsyscall use will be terminated regardless of the filter program policy when executing time, gettimeofday, or getcpu. This is only the case when vsyscall emulation is in use (vsyscall=emulate is the default). This patch emulates system call entry inside a vsyscall=emulate by populating regs->ax and regs->orig_ax with the system call number prior to calling into seccomp such that all seccomp-dependencies function normally. Additionally, system call return behavior is emulated in line with other vsyscall entrypoints for the trace/trap cases.

2012-07-13xfs: do not call xfs_bdstrat_cb in xfs_buf_iodone_callbacksChristoph Hellwig
xfs_bdstrat_cb only adds a check for a shutdown filesystem over xfs_buf_iorequest, but xfs_buf_iodone_callbacks just checked for a shut down filesystem a little earlier. In addition the shutdown handling in xfs_bdstrat_cb is not very suitable for this caller.

2012-07-13xfs: prevent recursion in xfs_buf_iorequestChristoph Hellwig
If the b_iodone handler is run in calling context in xfs_buf_iorequest we can run into a recursion where xfs_buf_iodone_callbacks keeps calling back into xfs_buf_iorequest because an I/O error happened, which keeps calling back into xfs_buf_iorequest. This chain will usually not take long because the filesystem gets shut down because of log I/O errors, but even over a short time it can cause stack overflows if run on the same context. As a short term workaround make sure we always call the iodone handler in workqueue context.

2012-07-13xfs: don't defer metadata allocation to the workqueueDave Chinner
Almost all metadata allocations come from shallow stack usage situations. Avoid the overhead of switching the allocation to a workqueue as we are not in danger of running out of stack when making these allocations. Metadata allocations are already marked through the args that are passed down, so this is trivial to do.
