Linville says: ==================== Regarding the mac80211 bits, Johannes says: "This time, I have a fix from Arik for scheduled scan recovery (something that only recently went into the tree), a memory leak fix from Eytan and a small regulatory bugfix from Inbal. The EAPOL change from Felix makes rekeying more stable while lots of traffic is flowing, and there's Emmanuel's and my fixes for a race in the code handling powersaving clients." Regarding the NFC bits, Samuel says: "We only have one candidate for 3.14 fixes, and this is a NCI NULL pointer dereference introduced during the 3.14 merge window." Regarding the iwlwifi bits, Emmanuel says: "This should fix an issue raised in iwldvm when we have lots of association failures. There is a bugzilla for this bug - it hasn't been validated by the user, but I hope it will do the trick." Beyond that... Amitkumar Karwar brings two mwifiex fixes, one to avoid a NULL pointer dereference and another to address an improperly timed interrupt. Arend van Spriel gives us a brcmfmac fix to avoid a crash during scatter-gather packet transfers. Avinash Patila offers an mwifiex to avoid an invalid memory access when a device is removed. Bing Zhao delivers a simple fix to avoid a naming conflict between libertas and mwifiex. Felix Fietkau provides a trio of ath9k fixes that properly account for sequence numbering in ps-poll frames, reduce the rate for false positives during baseband hang detection, and fix a regression related to rx descriptor handling. James Cameron shows us a libertas fix to ignore zero-length IEs when processing scan results. Kirill Tkhai brings a hostap fix to avoid prematurely freeing a timer. Stanislaw Gruszka fixes an ath9k locking problem. Sujith Manoharan addresses ETSI compliance for a device handled by ath9k by adjusting the minimum CCA power threshold values. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2014-02-26bonding: fix a div error caused by the slave release pathNikolay Aleksandrov
There's a bug in the slave release function which leads the transmit functions which use the bond->slave_cnt to a div by 0 because we might just have released our last slave and made slave_cnt == 0 but at the same time we may have a transmitter after the check for an empty list which will fetch it and use it in the slave id calculation. Fix it by moving the slave_cnt after synchronize_rcu so if this was our last slave any new transmitters will see an empty slave list which is checked after rcu lock but before calling the mode transmit functions which rely on bond->slave_cnt.

2014-02-26bonding: Fix RTNL: assertion failed at net/core/rtnetlink.c for ab arp monitordingtianhong
Veaceslav has reported and fix this problem by commit f2ebd477f141bc0 (bonding: restructure locking of bond_ab_arp_probe()). According Jay's opinion, the current solution is not very well, because the notification is to indicate that the interface has actually changed state in a meaningful way, but these calls in the ab ARP monitor are internal settings of the flags to allow the ARP monitor to search for a slave to become active when there are no active slaves. The flag setting to active or backup is to permit the ARP monitor's response logic to do the right thing when deciding if the test slave (current_arp_slave) is up or not. So the best way to fix the problem is that we should not send a notification when the slave is in testing state, and check the state at the end of the monitor, if the slave's state recover, avoid to send pointless notification twice. And RTNL is really a big lock, hold it regardless the slave's state changed or not when the current_active_slave is null will loss performance (every 100ms), so we should hold it only when the slave's state changed and need to notify. I revert the old commit and add new modifications.

2014-02-26bonding: Fix RTNL: assertion failed at net/core/rtnetlink.c for 802.3ad modedingtianhong
The problem was introduced by the commit 1d3ee88ae0d (bonding: add netlink attributes to slave link dev). The bond_set_active_slave() and bond_set_backup_slave() will use rtmsg_ifinfo to send slave's states, so these two functions should be called in RTNL. In 802.3ad mode, acquiring RTNL for the __enable_port and __disable_port cases is difficult, as those calls generally already hold the state machine lock, and cannot unconditionally call rtnl_lock because either they already hold RTNL (for calls via bond_3ad_unbind_slave) or due to the potential for deadlock with bond_3ad_adapter_speed_changed, bond_3ad_adapter_duplex_changed, bond_3ad_link_change, or bond_3ad_update_lacp_rate. All four of those are called with RTNL held, and acquire the state machine lock second. The calling contexts for __enable_port and __disable_port already hold the state machine lock, and may or may not need RTNL. According to the Jay's opinion, I don't think it is a problem that the slave don't send notify message synchronously when the status changed, normally the state machine is running every 100 ms, send the notify message at the end of the state machine if the slave's state changed should be better. I fix the problem through these steps: 1). add a new function bond_set_slave_state() which could change the slave's state and call rtmsg_ifinfo() according to the input parameters called notify. 2). Add a new slave parameter which called should_notify, if the slave's state changed and don't notify yet, the parameter will be set to 1, and then if the slave's state changed again, the param will be set to 0, it indicate that the slave's state has been restored, no need to notify any one. 3). the __enable_port and __disable_port should not call rtmsg_ifinfo in the state machine lock, any change in the state of slave could set a flag in the slave, it will indicated that an rtmsg_ifinfo should be called at the end of the state machine.

2014-02-25ipv4: ipv6: better estimate tunnel header cut for correct ufo handlingHannes Frederic Sowa
Currently the UFO fragmentation process does not correctly handle inner UDP frames. (The following tcpdumps are captured on the parent interface with ufo disabled while tunnel has ufo enabled, 2000 bytes payload, mtu 1280, both sit device): IPv6: 16:39:10.031613 IP (tos 0x0, ttl 64, id 3208, offset 0, flags [DF], proto IPv6 (41), length 1300) 192.168.122.151 > 1.1.1.1: IP6 (hlim 64, next-header Fragment (44) payload length: 1240) 2001::1 > 2001::8: frag (0x00000001:0|1232) 44883 > distinct: UDP, length 2000 16:39:10.031709 IP (tos 0x0, ttl 64, id 3209, offset 0, flags [DF], proto IPv6 (41), length 844) 192.168.122.151 > 1.1.1.1: IP6 (hlim 64, next-header Fragment (44) payload length: 784) 2001::1 > 2001::8: frag (0x00000001:0|776) 58979 > 46366: UDP, length 5471 We can see that fragmentation header offset is not correctly updated. (fragmentation id handling is corrected by 916e4cf46d0204 ("ipv6: reuse ip6_frag_id from ip6_ufo_append_data")). IPv4: 16:39:57.737761 IP (tos 0x0, ttl 64, id 3209, offset 0, flags [DF], proto IPIP (4), length 1296) 192.168.122.151 > 1.1.1.1: IP (tos 0x0, ttl 64, id 57034, offset 0, flags [none], proto UDP (17), length 1276) 192.168.99.1.35961 > 192.168.99.2.distinct: UDP, length 2000 16:39:57.738028 IP (tos 0x0, ttl 64, id 3210, offset 0, flags [DF], proto IPIP (4), length 792) 192.168.122.151 > 1.1.1.1: IP (tos 0x0, ttl 64, id 57035, offset 0, flags [none], proto UDP (17), length 772) 192.168.99.1.13531 > 192.168.99.2.20653: UDP, length 51109 In this case fragmentation id is incremented and offset is not updated. First, I aligned inet_gso_segment and ipv6_gso_segment: * align naming of flags * ipv6_gso_segment: setting skb->encapsulation is unnecessary, as we always ensure that the state of this flag is left untouched when returning from upper gso segmenation function * ipv6_gso_segment: move skb_reset_inner_headers below updating the fragmentation header data, we don't care for updating fragmentation header data * remove currently unneeded comment indicating skb->encapsulation might get changed by upper gso_segment callback (gre and udp-tunnel reset encapsulation after segmentation on each fragment) If we encounter an IPIP or SIT gso skb we now check for the protocol == IPPROTO_UDP and that we at least have already traversed another ip(6) protocol header. The reason why we have to special case GSO_IPIP and GSO_SIT is that we reset skb->encapsulation to 0 while skb_mac_gso_segment the inner protocol of GSO_UDP_TUNNEL or GSO_GRE packets.

2014-02-25tcp: reduce the bloat caused by tcp_is_cwnd_limited()Eric Dumazet
tcp_is_cwnd_limited() allows GSO/TSO enabled flows to increase their cwnd to allow a full size (64KB) TSO packet to be sent. Non GSO flows only allow an extra room of 3 MSS. For most flows with a BDP below 10 MSS, this results in a bloat of cwnd reaching 90, and an inflate of RTT. Thanks to TSO auto sizing, we can restrict the bloat to the number of MSS contained in a TSO packet (tp->xmit_size_goal_segs), to keep original intent without performance impact. Because we keep cwnd small, it helps to keep TSO packet size to their optimal value.

2014-02-22ipv6: reuse ip6_frag_id from ip6_ufo_append_dataHannes Frederic Sowa
Currently we generate a new fragmentation id on UFO segmentation. It is pretty hairy to identify the correct net namespace and dst there. Especially tunnels use IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE and thus have no skb_dst available at all. This causes unreliable or very predictable ipv6 fragmentation id generation while segmentation. Luckily we already have pregenerated the ip6_frag_id in ip6_ufo_append_data and can use it here. Signed-off-by: Hannes Frederic Sowa <hannes@stressinduktion.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

2014-02-22net: sctp: rework multihoming retransmission path selection to rfc4960Daniel Borkmann
Problem statement: 1) both paths (primary path1 and alternate path2) are up after the association has been established i.e., HB packets are normally exchanged, 2) path2 gets inactive after path_max_retrans * max_rto timed out (i.e. path2 is down completely), 3) now, if a transmission times out on the only surviving/active path1 (any ~1sec network service impact could cause this like a channel bonding failover), then the retransmitted packets are sent over the inactive path2; this happens with partial failover and without it. Besides not being optimal in the above scenario, a small failure or timeout in the only existing path has the potential to cause long delays in the retransmission (depending on RTO_MAX) until the still active path is reselected. Further, when the T3-timeout occurs, we have active_patch == retrans_path, and even though the timeout occurred on the initial transmission of data, not a retransmit, we end up updating retransmit path. RFC4960, section 6.4. "Multi-Homed SCTP Endpoints" states under 6.4.1. "Failover from an Inactive Destination Address" the following: Some of the transport addresses of a multi-homed SCTP endpoint may become inactive due to either the occurrence of certain error conditions (see Section 8.2) or adjustments from the SCTP user. When there is outbound data to send and the primary path becomes inactive (e.g., due to failures), or where the SCTP user explicitly requests to send data to an inactive destination transport address, before reporting an error to its ULP, the SCTP endpoint should try to send the data to an alternate __active__ destination transport address if one exists. When retransmitting data that timed out, if the endpoint is multihomed, it should consider each source-destination address pair in its retransmission selection policy. When retransmitting timed-out data, the endpoint should attempt to pick the most divergent source-destination pair from the original source-destination pair to which the packet was transmitted. Note: Rules for picking the most divergent source-destination pair are an implementation decision and are not specified within this document. So, we should first reconsider to take the current active retransmission transport if we cannot find an alternative active one. If all of that fails, we can still round robin through unkown, partial failover, and inactive ones in the hope to find something still suitable. Commit 4141ddc02a92 ("sctp: retran_path update bug fix") broke that behaviour by selecting the next inactive transport when no other active transport was found besides the current assoc's peer.retran_path. Before commit 4141ddc02a92, we would have traversed through the list until we reach our peer.retran_path again, and in case that is still in state SCTP_ACTIVE, we would take it and return. Only if that is not the case either, we take the next inactive transport. Besides all that, another issue is that transports in state SCTP_UNKNOWN could be preferred over transports in state SCTP_ACTIVE in case a SCTP_ACTIVE transport appears after SCTP_UNKNOWN in the transport list yielding a weaker transport state to be used in retransmission. This patch mostly reverts 4141ddc02a92, but also rewrites this function to introduce more clarity and strictness into the code. A strict priority of transport states is enforced in this patch, hence selection is active > unkown > partial failover > inactive.

2014-02-22neigh: fix setting of default gc_* valuesJiri Pirko
This patch fixes bug introduced by: commit 1d4c8c29841b9991cdf3c7cc4ba7f96a94f104ca "neigh: restore old behaviour of default parms values" The thing is that in neigh_sysctl_register, extra1 and extra2 which were previously set for NEIGH_VAR_GC_* are overwritten. That leads to nonsense int limits for gc_* variables. So fix this by not touching extra* fields for gc_* variables. Signed-off-by: Jiri Pirko <jiri@resnulli.us> Signed-off-by: David S.

This patch fixes two bugs in fastopen : 1) The tcp_sendmsg(..., @size) argument was ignored. Code was relying on user not fooling the kernel with iovec mismatches 2) When MTU is about 64KB, tcp_send_syn_data() attempts order-5 allocations, which are likely to fail when memory gets fragmented.

2014-02-22tipc: make bearer set up in module insertion stageYing Xue
Accidentally a side effect is involved by commit 6e967adf7(tipc: relocate common functions from media to bearer). Now tipc stack handler of receiving packets from netdevices as well as netdevice notification handler are registered when bearer is enabled rather than tipc module initialization stage, but the two handlers are both unregistered in tipc module exit phase. If tipc module is inserted and then immediately removed, the following warning message will appear: "dev_remove_pack: ffffffffa0380940 not found" This is because in module insertion stage tipc stack packet handler is not registered at all, but in module exit phase dev_remove_pack() needs to remove it. Of course, dev_remove_pack() cannot find tipc protocol handler from the kernel protocol handler list so that the warning message is printed out. But if registering the two handlers is adjusted from enabling bearer phase into inserting module stage, the warning message will be eliminated. Due to this change, tipc_core_start_net() and tipc_core_stop_net() can be deleted as well.

2014-02-22tipc: remove all enabled flags from all tipc componentsYing Xue
When tipc module is inserted, many tipc components are initialized one by one. During the initialization period, if one of them is failed, tipc_core_stop() will be called to stop all components whatever corresponding components are created or not. To avoid to release uncreated ones, relevant components have to add necessary enabled flags indicating whether they are created or not. But in the initialization stage, if one component is unsuccessfully created, we will just destroy successfully created components before the failed component instead of all components. All enabled flags defined in components, in turn, become redundant. Additionally it's also unnecessary to identify whether table.types is NULL in tipc_nametbl_stop() because name stable has been definitely created successfully when tipc_nametbl_stop() is called.

The minimum CCA power threshold values have to be adjusted for existing cards to be in compliance with new regulations. Newer cards will make use of the values obtained from EEPROM, support for this was added earlier. To make sure that cards that are already in use and don't have proper values in EEPROM, do not violate regulations, use the initvals instead.

The driver concatenates multiple packets in one MMC transfer. For scatter-gather to work the total length need to be multiple of 512 bytes. A pre-allocated buffer was used to add padding to accomplish that. However, the length was not properly set and it was freed after the first transfer causing a crash.

We are sending sleep confirm done interrupt in the middle of sleep handshake. There is a corner case when Tx done interrupt is received from firmware during sleep handshake due to which host and firmware power states go out of sync causing cmd and Tx data timeout problem.
