mac80211 stops the tx queues during scans. This is wrong with respect to the master deivce tx queue, since stopping it prevents any probes from being sent during the scan. Instead, they accumulate in the queue and are only sent after the scan is finished, which is obviously wrong. Signed-off-by: Mattias Nissler <mattias.nissler@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: John W.

Several people have reported LITE-ON LTR-48246S detection failed because SETXFER fails. It seems the device raises IRQ too early after SETXFER. This is controller independent. The same problem has been reported for different controllers. So, now we have pata_via where the controller raises IRQ before it's ready after SETXFER and a device which does similar thing. This patch makes libata always execute SETXFER via polling. As this only happens during EH, performance impact is nil. Setting ATA_TFLAG_POLLING is also moved from issue hot path to ata_dev_set_xfermode() - the only place where SETXFER can be issued. Note that ATA_TFLAG_POLLING applies only to drivers which implement SFF TF interface and use libata HSM. More advanced controllers ignore the flag. This doesn't matter for this fix as SFF TF controllers are the problematic ones. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <htejun@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>

We've had several reoprts of the CPU jumping to 0x00000000 is do_ioctl(). I assume that there's a race and someone is zeroing out the ioctl handler while this CPU waits for the lock_kernel(). The patch adds code to detect this, then emits stuff which will hopefuly lead us to the culprit.

There is a race between input handler's release() and disconnect() methods: when input handler disconnects it wakes up all regular users and then process to walk user list to wake up async. users. While disconnect() walks the list release() removes elements of the same list causing oopses. While this is not a substibute for proper locking we can reduce odds of getting an oops if we wake up normal readers after walking the list. Signed-off-by: Dmitry Torokhov <dtor@mail.ru>

Currently when icmp_errors_use_inbound_ifaddr is set and an ICMP error is sent after the packet passed through ip_output(), an address from the outgoing interface is chosen as ICMP source address since skb->dev doesn't point to the incoming interface anymore.

This isn't a bug just yet as only TCP uses sk_setup_caps for GSO. However, if and when UDP or something else starts using it this is likely to cause a problem if we forget to add software emulation for it at the same time. The problem is that right now we translate GSO emulation to the bitmask NETIF_F_GSO_MASK, which includes every protocol, even ones that we cannot emulate. This patch makes it provide only the ones that we can emulate. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

The code used to ignore GSO completely, passing either way too small or zero pkts_acked when GSO skb or part of it got ACKed. In addition, there is no need to calculate the value in the loop but simple arithmetics after the loop is sufficient. There is no need to handle SYN case specially because congestion control modules are not yet initialized when FLAG_SYN_ACKED is set.

The compiler warning drivers/atm/firestream.c: In function ‘top_off_fp’: drivers/atm/firestream.c:1505: warning: cast to pointer from integer of different size does indicate a bug, albeit a minor one. Fixed, by using a 32-bit temporary prior to the call to bus_to_virt(). The larger bug is still present: the entire driver assumes that machine pointers are 32-bit, as it stores pointers in 32-bit hardware registers. This is obvious to anyone who knows the driver well, but for the casual readers it is helpfully noted with FIXME. Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

This diff changes the default port range used for outgoing connections, from "use 32768-61000 in most cases, but use N-4999 on small boxes (where N is a multiple of 1024, depending on just *how* small the box is)" to just "use 32768-61000 in all cases". I don't believe there are any drawbacks to this change, and it keeps outgoing connection ports farther away from the mess of IANA-registered ports.

Based upon an excellent bug report and initial patch by Frederik Deweerdt. The UNIX datagram connect code blindly dereferences other->sk_socket via the call down to the security_unix_may_send() function. Without locking 'other' that pointer can go NULL via unix_release_sock() which does sock_orphan() which also marks the socket SOCK_DEAD. So we have to lock both 'sk' and 'other' yet avoid all kinds of potential deadlocks (connect to self is OK for datagram sockets and it is possible for two datagram sockets to perform a simultaneous connect to each other). So what we do is have a "double lock" function similar to how we handle this situation in other areas of the kernel. We take the lock of the socket pointer with the smallest address first in order to avoid ABBA style deadlocks. Once we have them both locked, we check to see if SOCK_DEAD is set for 'other' and if so, drop everything and retry the lookup. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

The bug is caused by code that always set (TG3_FLAG_USE_MI_INTERRUPT | TG3_FLAG_USE_LINKCHG_REG) on all Dell's onboard devices. With these 2 flags set, the link status is polled by tg3_timer() and will only work when the PHY is set up to interrupt the MAC on link changes. This breaks 5906 because the 5906 PHY does not support TG3_FLAG_USE_MI_INTERRUPT the same as other PHYs. For correctness, only Dell's onboard 5701 needs these 2 flags to be set. This change will fix the 5906 problem and will change other Dell devices except 5700 and 5701 to use the more efficient interrupt-driven link changes. Update version to 3.77.

The current smc91x I/O routines ifdef the solution engine subtypes individually, which is rather bogus, as they can simply use CONFIG_SOLUTION_ENGINE instead. This fixes it for some of the other solution engines that weren't included in the ifdef list (SH7206 specifically). There are also inb/outb definitions which are totally bogus (missing brackets in _both_ cases, SMC_CAN_USE_8BIT == 0, and even better, they try to use a 16-bit access to fake 8-bit access). Kill that nonsense off completely.

To assure the symmetry of poll enable/disable in up/down, we should initialize the netdevice to be poll_disabled at load time.
