This showed up in my audit because we use strcpy() to copy "ds" into a 32 character buffer inside the isdn_tty_dial() function. But it turns out that we only ever use the first 32 characters so it's OK. I have changed the declaration to make the static checkers happy. Signed-off-by:

cs->ics.parm.setup.phone is a 32 character array. In each of these cases we're copying from a 35 character array into a 32 character array so we should use strlcpy() instead of strcpy(). Signed-off-by:

In this case, a device_node structure is stored in another structure that is then freed without first decrementing the reference count of the device_node structure.

pskb_expand_head() blindly takes references on fragments before calling skb_release_data(), potentially releasing these references. We can add a fast path, avoiding these atomic operations, if we own the last reference on skb->head. Based on a previous patch from David Signed-off-by:

This patch enables TCP checksum offload support for IPv6 on ibmveth. This completely eliminates the generation and checking of the checksum for IPv6 packets that are completely virtual and never touch a physical network. A basic TCPIPV6_STREAM netperf run showed a ~30% throughput improvement when an MTU of 64000 was used. This featured is enabled by default, as is the case for IPv4 checksum offload. When checksum offload is enabled the driver will negotiate IPv4 and IPv6 offload with the firmware separately and enable what is available. As long as either IPv4 or IPv6 offload is supported and enabled the device will report that checksum offload is enabled. The device stats, available through ethtool, will display which checksum offload features are supported/enabled by firmware. Performance testing against a stock kernel shows no regression for IPv4 or IPv6 in terms of throughput or processor utilization with checksum disabled or enabled. Signed-off-by:

Remove code in the device probe function where we set up the checksum offload feature and replace it with a call to an existing function that is doing the same. This is done to clean up the driver in preparation of adding IPv6 checksum offload support. Signed-off-by:

On some machines we can improve the bandwidth by ensuring rx buffers are not in the cache. Add a module option that is disabled by default that flushes rx buffers on insertion. Signed-off-by:

ibmveth can scatter gather up to 6 segments. If we go over this then we have no option but to call skb_linearize, like other drivers with similar limitations do. Signed-off-by:

We want to order the read in ibmveth_rxq_pending_buffer and the read of ibmveth_rxq_buffer_valid which are both cacheable memory. smp_rmb() is good enough for this. Signed-off-by:

Use the existing bounce buffer if we send a buffer under a certain size. This saves the overhead of a TCE map/unmap. I can't see any reason for the wmb() in the bounce buffer case, if we need a barrier it will be before we call h_send_logical_lan but we have nothing in the common case. Remove it. Signed-off-by:

The ibmveth adapter needs locking in the transmit routine to protect the bounce_buffer but it sets LLTX and forgets to add any of its own locking. Just remove the deprecated LLTX option. Remove the stats lock in the process. Signed-off-by:

At the moment we try and replenish the receive ring on every rx interrupt. We even have a pool->threshold but aren't using it. To limit the maximum latency incurred when refilling, change the threshold from 1/2 to 7/8 and reduce the largest rx pool from 768 buffers to 512 which should be more than enough. Signed-off-by:

Cause TIPC to return EAGAIN if it is unable to enable a new Ethernet bearer because one or more recently disabled Ethernet bearers are temporarily consuming resources during shut down. (The previous error code, EDQUOT, is now returned only if all available Ethernet bearer data structures are fully enabled at the time the request to enable an additional bearer is received.)

Add code to expand the headroom of an outgoing TIPC message if the sk_buff has insufficient room to hold the header for the associated Ethernet device. This change is necessary to ensure that messages TIPC does not create itself (eg. incoming messages that are being routed to another node) do not cause problems, since TIPC has no control over the amount of headroom available in such messages.

Optimizes TIPC's name table translation code to avoid unnecessary manipulation of the node address field of the resulting port id when name translation fails. This change is possible because a valid port id cannot have a reference field of zero, so examining the reference only is sufficient to determine if the translation was successful. Signed-off-by:

While porting GRO to r8169, I found this driver has a bug in its rx path. All skbs given to network stack had their ip_summed set to CHECKSUM_NONE, while hardware said they had correct TCP/UDP checksums. The reason is driver sets skb->ip_summed on the original skb before the copy eventually done by copybreak. The fresh skb gets the ip_summed = CHECKSUM_NONE value, forcing network stack to recompute checksum, and preventing my GRO patch to work. Fix is to make the ip_summed setting after skb copy. Note : rx_copybreak current value is 16383, so all frames are copied... Signed-off-by:

__alloc_skb() uses a memset() to clear all the beginning of skb, including bitfields contained in 'flags1' & 'flags2'. We dont need any more to use kmemcheck_annotate_bitfield() on these fields. However, we still need it for the clone part, which is not cleared. Signed-off-by:
