2012-04-21net/hyperv: Adding cancellation to ensure rndis filter is closedWenqi Ma1-24/+14
Although the network interface is down, the RX packets number which could be observed by ifconfig may keep on increasing. This is because the WORK scheduled in netvsc_set_multicast_list() may be executed after netvsc_close(). That means the rndis filter may be re-enabled by do_set_multicast() even if it was closed by netvsc_close(). By canceling possible WORK before close the rndis filter, the issue could be never happened.

2012-04-21ks8851: Fix mutex deadlock in ks8851_net_stop()Stephen Boyd1-5/+6
There is a potential deadlock scenario when the ks8851 driver is removed. The interrupt handler schedules a workqueue which acquires a mutex that ks8851_net_stop() also acquires before flushing the workqueue. Previously lockdep wouldn't be able to find this problem but now that it has the support we can trigger this lockdep warning by rmmoding the driver after an ifconfig up. Fix the possible deadlock by disabling the interrupts in the chip and then release the lock across the workqueue flushing. The mutex is only there to proect the registers anyway so this should be ok. ======================================================= [ INFO: possible circular locking dependency detected ] 3.0.21-00021-g8b33780-dirty #2911 ------------------------------------------------------- rmmod/125 is trying to acquire lock: ((&ks->irq_work)){+.+...}, at: [<c019e0b8>] flush_work+0x0/0xac but task is already holding lock: (&ks->lock){+.+...}, at: [<bf00b850>] ks8851_net_stop+0x64/0x138 [ks8851] which lock already depends on the new lock. the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is: -> #1 (&ks->lock){+.+...}: [<c01b89c8>] __lock_acquire+0x940/0x9f8 [<c01b9058>] lock_acquire+0x10c/0x130 [<c083dbec>] mutex_lock_nested+0x68/0x3dc [<bf00bd48>] ks8851_irq_work+0x24/0x46c [ks8851] [<c019c580>] process_one_work+0x2d8/0x518 [<c019cb98>] worker_thread+0x220/0x3a0 [<c01a2ad4>] kthread+0x88/0x94 [<c0107008>] kernel_thread_exit+0x0/0x8 -> #0 ((&ks->irq_work)){+.+...}: [<c01b7984>] validate_chain+0x914/0x1018 [<c01b89c8>] __lock_acquire+0x940/0x9f8 [<c01b9058>] lock_acquire+0x10c/0x130 [<c019e104>] flush_work+0x4c/0xac [<bf00b858>] ks8851_net_stop+0x6c/0x138 [ks8851] [<c06b209c>] __dev_close_many+0x98/0xcc [<c06b2174>] dev_close_many+0x68/0xd0 [<c06b22ec>] rollback_registered_many+0xcc/0x2b8 [<c06b2554>] rollback_registered+0x28/0x34 [<c06b25b8>] unregister_netdevice_queue+0x58/0x7c [<c06b25f4>] unregister_netdev+0x18/0x20 [<bf00c1f4>] ks8851_remove+0x64/0xb4 [ks8851] [<c049ddf0>] spi_drv_remove+0x18/0x1c [<c0468e98>] __device_release_driver+0x7c/0xbc [<c0468f64>] driver_detach+0x8c/0xb4 [<c0467f00>] bus_remove_driver+0xb8/0xe8 [<c01c1d20>] sys_delete_module+0x1e8/0x27c [<c0105ec0>] ret_fast_syscall+0x0/0x3c other info that might help us debug this: Possible unsafe locking scenario: CPU0 CPU1 ---- ---- lock(&ks->lock); lock((&ks->irq_work)); lock(&ks->lock); lock((&ks->irq_work)); *** DEADLOCK *** 4 locks held by rmmod/125: #0: (&__lockdep_no_validate__){+.+.+.}, at: [<c0468f44>] driver_detach+0x6c/0xb4 #1: (&__lockdep_no_validate__){+.+.+.}, at: [<c0468f50>] driver_detach+0x78/0xb4 #2: (rtnl_mutex){+.+.+.}, at: [<c06b25e8>] unregister_netdev+0xc/0x20 #3: (&ks->lock){+.+...}, at: [<bf00b850>] ks8851_net_stop+0x64/0x138 [ks8851] Cc: Ben Dooks <ben-linux@fluff.org> Signed-off-by: Stephen Boyd <sboyd@codeaurora.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

2012-04-19net: qmi_wwan: support Sierra Wireless MC77xx devices in QMI modeBjørn Mork1-0/+30
The MC77xx devices can operate in two modes: "Direct IP" or "QMI", switchable using a password protected AT command. Both product ID and USB interface configuration will change when switched. The "sierra_net" driver supports the "Direct IP" mode. This driver supports the "QMI" mode. There are also multiple possible USB interface configurations in each mode, some providing more than one wwan interface. Like many other devices made for Windows, different interface types are identified using a static interface number. We define a Sierra specific interface whitelist to support this.

The sp_pri_to_cos[] array size depends on the config but lets say it is BX_E3B0_MAX_NUM_COS_PORT0 and max_num_of_cos is also DCBX_E3B0_MAX_NUM_COS_PORT0. In the original code "pri == max_num_of_cos" was accepted but it is one past the end of the array. Also we used "pri" before capping it. It's a harmless read past the end of the array, but it would affect which error message gets printed.

This patch adds an additional check whether the operation was done before actually returning -ETIMEDOUT. To reproduce this bug, flood ping the device, e.g., ping -f -l 1000 After some time, a "timed out waiting for user access" warning may appear.

2012-04-17ixgbe: Identify FCoE rings earlier to resolve memory corruption w/ FCoEAlexander Duyck2-8/+10
This patch makes it so that we identify FCoE rings earlier than ixgbe_set_rx_buffer_len. Instead we identify the Rx FCoE rings at allocation time in ixgbe_alloc_q_vector. The motivation behind this change is to avoid memory corruption when FCoE is enabled. Without this change we were initializing the rings at 0, and 2K on systems with 4K pages, then when we bumped the buffer size to 4K with order 1 pages we were accessing offsets 2K and 6K instead of 0 and 4K. This was resulting in memory corruptions.

So dummy deivce is desirable to implement ndo_uninit() method to free percpu stats for this case. And, ndo_uninit() is also called along with dev->destructor() when device is unregistered, so in order to prevent dev->dstats from being freed twice, dev->destructor is modified to free_netdev().

2012-04-14net/ethernet: ks8851_mll fix rx frame buffer overflowDavide Ciminaghi1-1/+1
At the beginning of ks_rcv(), a for loop retrieves the header information relevant to all the frames stored in the mac's internal buffers. The number of pending frames is stored as an 8 bits field in KS_RXFCTR. If interrupts are disabled long enough to allow for more than 32 frames to accumulate in the MAC's internal buffers, a buffer overflow occurs. This patch fixes the problem by making the driver's frame_head_info buffer big enough. Well actually, since the chip appears to have 12K of internal rx buffers and the shortest ethernet frame should be 64 bytes long, maybe the limit could be set to 12*1024/64 = 192 frames, but 255 should be safer.

2012-04-14e1000e: issues in Sx on 82577/8/9Bruce Allan1-5/+10
A workaround was previously put in the driver to reset the device when transitioning to Sx in order to activate the changed settings of the PHY OEM bits (Low Power Link Up, or LPLU, and GbE disable configuration) for 82577/8/9 devices. After further review, it was found such a reset can cause the 82579 to confuse which version of 82579 it actually is and broke LPLU on all 82577/8/9 devices. The workaround during an S0->Sx transition on 82579 (instead of resetting the PHY) is to restart auto-negotiation after the OEM bits are configured; the restart of auto-negotiation activates the new OEM bits as does the reset. With 82577/8, the reset is changed to a generic reset which fixes the LPLU bits getting set wrong.

2012-04-13ppp: Fix race condition with queue start/stopDavid Woodhouse1-9/+6
Commit e675f0cc9a872fd152edc0c77acfed19bf28b81e ("ppp: Don't stop and restart queue on every TX packet") introduced a race condition which could leave the net queue stopped even when the channel is no longer busy. By calling netif_stop_queue() from ppp_start_xmit(), based on the return value from ppp_xmit_process() but *after* all the locks have been dropped, we could potentially do so *after* the channel has actually finished transmitting and attempted to re-wake the queue. Fix this by moving the netif_stop_queue() into ppp_xmit_process() under the xmit lock. I hadn't done this previously, because it gets called from other places than ppp_start_xmit(). But I now think it's the better option. The net queue *should* be stopped if the channel becomes congested due to writes from pppd, anyway.

Pull networking fixes from David Miller: 1) Fix bluetooth userland regression reported by Keith Packard, from Gustavo Padovan. 2) Revert ath9k PS idle change, from Sujith Manoharan. 3) Correct default TCP memory limits (again), from Eric Dumazet. 4) Fix tcp_rcv_rtt_update() accidental use of unscaled RTT, from Neal Cardwell. 5) We made a facility for layers like wireless to say how much tailroom they need in the SKB for link layer stuff such as wireless encryption etc., but TCP works hard to fill every SKB out to the end defeating this specification. This leads to every TCP packet getting reallocated by the wireless code in order to have the right amount of tailroom available. Fix TCP to only fill SKBs out to the real amount of data area it asked for during the allocation, this way it won't eat into the slack added for the device's tailroom needs.

2012-04-11rtlwifi: Add missing DMA buffer unmapping for PCI driversLarry Finger1-1/+6
In https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42976, a system with driver rtl8192se used as an AP suffers from "Out of SW-IOMMU space" errors. These are caused by the DMA buffers used for beacons never being unmapped.

2012-04-11rtlwifi: Preallocate USB read buffers and eliminate kalloc in read routineLarry Finger2-19/+21
The current version of rtlwifi for USB operations uses kmalloc to acquire a 32-bit buffer for each read of the device. When _usb_read_sync() is called with the rcu_lock held, the result is a "sleeping function called from invalid context" BUG. This is reported for two cases in https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42775. The first case has the lock originating from within rtlwifi and could be fixed by rearranging the locking; however, the second originates from within mac80211. The kmalloc() call is removed from _usb_read_sync() by creating a ring buffer pointer in the private area and allocating the buffer data in the probe routine.

Fix from Eric Dumazet. 11) do_tcp_sendpage() unloads the send queue way too fast, because it invokes tcp_push() when it shouldn't. Let the natural sequence generated by the splice paths, and the assosciated MSG_MORE settings, guide the tcp_push() calls. Otherwise what goes out of TCP is spaghetti and doesn't batch effectively into GSO/TSO clusters. From Eric Dumazet. 12) Once we put a SKB into either the netlink receiver's queue or a socket error queue, it can be consumed and freed up, therefore we cannot touch it after queueing it like that. Fixes from Eric Dumazet. 13) PPP has this annoying behavior in that for every transmit call it immediately stops the TX queue, then calls down into the next layer to transmit the PPP frame. But if that next layer can take it immediately, it just un-stops the TX queue right before returning from the transmit method. Besides being useless work, it makes several facilities unusable, in particular things like the equalizers. Well behaved devices should only stop the TX queue when they really are full, and in PPP's case when it gets backlogged to the downstream device. David Woodhouse therefore fixed PPP to not stop the TX queue until it's downstream can't take data any more. 14) IFF_UNICAST_FLT got accidently lost in some recent stmmac driver changes, re-add. From Marc Kleine-Budde. 15) Fix link flaps in ixgbe, from Eric W.
