2008-06-09mac80211: Fixing slow IBSS rejoinAssaf Krauss1-0/+1
This patch fixes the issue of slow reconnection to an IBSS cell after disconnection from it.

2008-06-09libertas: fix sleep confirmationHolger Schurig2-2/+5
This fixes an issus that made "iwconfig eth1 power on" non-working. When we get a "PS sleep" event, we have to confirm this to the firmware. The confirm happens with a command, but this command is special: the firmware won't send us a response. if_cs_host_to_card() is setting priv->dnld_sent anyway, so this variable stayed at DNLD_DATA_SENT and was never cleared back. Now I put the special knowledge that the CMD_802_11_PS_MODE with CMD_SUBCMD_SLEEP_CONFIRMED doesn't need to need a response by directly clearing the dnld_sent state in lbs_send_confirmsleep().

2008-06-09ipw2200: queue direct scansDan Williams2-95/+87
When another scan is in progress, a direct scan gets dropped on the floor. However, that direct scan is usually the scan that's really needed by userspace, and gets stomped on by all the broadcast scans the ipw2200 driver issues internally. Make sure the direct scan happens eventually, and as a bonus ensure that the passive scan worker is cleaned up when appropriate. The change of request_passive_scan form a struct work to struct delayed_work is only to make the set_wx_scan() code a bit simpler, it's still only used with a delay of 0 to match previous behavior.

2008-06-04l2tp: Fix possible oops if transmitting or receiving when tunnel goes downJames Chapman1-23/+78
Some problems have been experienced in the field which cause an oops in the pppol2tp driver if L2TP tunnels fail while passing data. The pppol2tp driver uses private data that is referenced via the sk->sk_user_data of its UDP and PPPoL2TP sockets. This patch makes sure that the driver uses sock_hold() when it holds a reference to the sk pointer. This affects its sendmsg(), recvmsg(), getname(), [gs]etsockopt() and ioctl() handlers. Tested by ISP where problem was seen. System has been up 10 days with no oops since running this patch. Without the patch, an oops would occur every 1-2 days.

2008-06-04tcp: Fix for race due to temporary drop of the socket lock in skb_splice_bits.Octavian Purdila2-3/+11
skb_splice_bits temporary drops the socket lock while iterating over the socket queue in order to break a reverse locking condition which happens with sendfile. This, however, opens a window of opportunity for tcp_collapse() to aggregate skbs and thus potentially free the current skb used in skb_splice_bits and tcp_read_sock. This patch fixes the problem by (re-)getting the same "logical skb" after the lock has been temporary dropped. Based on idea and initial patch from Evgeniy Polyakov.

If an L2TP daemon closes a tunnel socket while packets are queued in the tunnel's reorder queue, a kernel warning is logged because the socket is closed while skbs are still referencing it. The fix is to purge the queue in the socket's release handler.

2008-06-04tcp: fix skb vs fack_count out-of-sync conditionIlpo Järvinen1-3/+3
This bug is able to corrupt fackets_out in very rare cases. In order for this to cause corruption: 1) DSACK in the middle of previous SACK block must be generated. 2) In order to take that particular branch, part or all of the DSACKed segment must already be SACKed so that we have that in cache in the first place. 3) The new info must be top enough so that fackets_out will be updated on this iteration. ...then fack_count is updated while skb wasn't, then we walk again that particular segment thus updating fack_count twice for a single skb and finally that value is assigned to fackets_out by tcp_sacktag_one. It is safe to call tcp_sacktag_one just once for a segment (at DSACK), no need to call again for plain SACK. Potential problem of the miscount are limited to premature entry to recovery and to inflated reordering metric (which could even cancel each other out in the most the luckiest scenarios :-)). Both are quite insignificant in worst case too and there exists also code to reset them (fackets_out once sacked_out becomes zero and reordering metric on RTO). This has been reported by a number of people, because it occurred quite rarely, it has been very evasive. Andy Furniss was able to get it to occur couple of times so that a bit more info was collected about the problem using a debug patch, though it still required lot of checking around. Thanks also to others who have tried to help here. This is listed as Bugzilla #10346. The bug was introduced by me in commit 68f8353b48 ([TCP]: Rewrite SACK block processing & sack_recv_cache use), I probably thought back then that there's need to scan that entry twice or didn't dare to make it go through it just once there. Going through twice would have required restoring fack_count after the walk but as noted above, I chose to drop the additional walk step altogether here.

2008-06-04tcp: Fix inconsistency source (CA_Open only when !tcp_left_out(tp))Ilpo Järvinen1-10/+19
It is possible that this skip path causes TCP to end up into an invalid state where ca_state was left to CA_Open while some segments already came into sacked_out. If next valid ACK doesn't contain new SACK information TCP fails to enter into tcp_fastretrans_alert(). Thus at least high_seq is set incorrectly to a too high seqno because some new data segments could be sent in between (and also, limited transmit is not being correctly invoked there). Reordering in both directions can easily cause this situation to occur. I guess we would want to use tcp_moderate_cwnd(tp) there as well as it may be possible to use this to trigger oversized burst to network by sending an old ACK with huge amount of SACK info, but I'm a bit unsure about its effects (mainly to FlightSize), so to be on the safe side I just currently fixed it minimally to keep TCP's state consistent (obviously, such nasty ACKs have been possible this far). Though it seems that FlightSize is already underestimated by some amount, so probably on the long term we might want to trigger recovery there too, if appropriate, to make FlightSize calculation to resemble reality at the time when the losses where discovered (but such change scares me too much now and requires some more thinking anyway how to do that as it likely involves some code shuffling). This bug was found by Brian Vowell while running my TCP debug patch to find cause of another TCP issue (fackets_out miscount).

2008-06-03net: neighbour table ABI problemStephen Hemminger1-3/+3
The neighbor table time of last use information is returned in the incorrect unit. Kernel to user space ABI's need to use USER_HZ (or milliseconds), otherwise the application has to try and discover the real system HZ value which is problematic. Linux has standardized on keeping USER_HZ consistent (100hz) even when kernel is running internally at some other value. This change is small, but it breaks the ABI for older version of iproute2 utilities. But these utilities are already broken since they are looking at the psched_hz values which are completely different. So let's just go ahead and fix both kernel and user space. Older utilities will just print wrong values. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@vyatta.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
