The problem with the original commit is explained by Russell King: "It has the effect (as can be seen from the oops) of attaching the MDIO bus device (itself is a bus-less device) to the platform driver, which means that if the platform driver supports power management, it will be called to power manage the MDIO bus device. Moreover, drivers do not expect to be called for power management operations for devices which they haven't probed, and certainly not for devices which aren't part of the same bus that the driver is registered against."

Instead aggregate tx stats in local variable and then assign it to adapter struct variable. * Set_driver_version was called after registering netdev which was resulting in a race between FLR in open handler and set_driver_version command as open handler can be called simulatneously on another cpu even if probe is not complete.

Antonio Quartulli says: ==================== pull request net: batman-adv 2014-08-04 this is a pull request intended for net. It just contains a patch by Sven Eckelmann that fixes the reception of out-of-order fragments. As explained in the commit message, the issue was due to a wrong assumption about hlist_for_each_entry() in batadv_frag_insert_packet(). ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Sven Eckelmann authored
batadv_frag_insert_packet was unable to handle out-of-order packets because it dropped them directly. This is caused by the way the fragmentation lists is checked for the correct place to insert a fragmentation entry. The fragmentation code keeps the fragments in lists. The fragmentation entries are kept in descending order of sequence number. The list is traversed and each entry is compared with the new fragment. If the current entry has a smaller sequence number than the new fragment then the new one has to be inserted before the current entry. This ensures that the list is still in descending order. An out-of-order packet with a smaller sequence number than all entries in the list still has to be added to the end of the list. The used hlist has no information about the last entry in the list inside hlist_head and thus the last entry has to be calculated differently. Currently the code assumes that the iterator variable of hlist_for_each_entry can be used for this purpose after the hlist_for_each_entry finished. This is obviously wrong because the iterator variable is always NULL when the list was completely traversed. Instead the information about the last entry has to be stored in a different variable. This problem was introduced in 610bfc6b ("batman-adv: Receive fragmented packets and merge").

Add missing Makefile rule for r8152 driver In the current kernel the r8152 driver is *never* built because of a missing rule in drivers/net/Makefile, despite being selected as built-in or module in the .config file. There is no error message or warning to indicate that the driver isn't built. This change adds the rule and lets the driver build. Tested as built-in and module for 3.15.8.

nft_del_setelem() currently calls nft_data_uninit() twice on the same key. Once to release the key which is guaranteed to be NFT_DATA_VALUE and a second time in the error path to which it falls through. The second call has been harmless so far though because the type passed is always NFT_DATA_VALUE which is currently a no-op.

When performing segmentation, the mac_len value is copied right out of the original skb. However, this value is not always set correctly (like when the packet is VLAN-tagged) and we'll end up copying a bad value. One way to demonstrate this is to configure a VM which tags packets internally and turn off VLAN acceleration on the forwarding bridge port. The packets show up corrupt like this: 16:18:24.985548 52:54:00:ab:be:25 > 52:54:00:26:ce:a3, ethertype 802.1Q (0x8100), length 1518: vlan 100, p 0, ethertype 0x05e0, 0x0000: 8cdb 1c7c 8cdb 0064 4006 b59d 0a00 6402 ...|...d@.....d. 0x0010: 0a00 6401 9e0d b441 0a5e 64ec 0330 14fa ..d....A.^d..0.. 0x0020: 29e3 01c9 f871 0000 0101 080a 000a e833)....q.........3 0x0030: 000f 8c75 6e65 7470 6572 6600 6e65 7470 ...unetperf.netp 0x0040: 6572 6600 6e65 7470 6572 6600 6e65 7470 erf.netperf.netp 0x0050: 6572 6600 6e65 7470 6572 6600 6e65 7470 erf.netperf.netp 0x0060: 6572 6600 6e65 7470 6572 6600 6e65 7470 erf.netperf.netp ... This also leads to awful throughput as GSO packets are dropped and cause retransmissions. The solution is to set the mac_len using the values already available in then new skb. We've already adjusted all of the header offset, so we might as well correctly figure out the mac_len using skb_reset_mac_len(). After this change, packets are segmented correctly and performance is restored. CC: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: Vlad Yasevich <vyasevic@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Since netfront may reconnect to a backend with a different number of queues, all per-queue Rx and Tx resources (skbs and grant references) should be freed when disconnecting. Without this fix, the Tx and Rx grant refs are not released and netfront will exhaust them after only a few reconnections. netfront will fail to connect when no free grant references are available. Since all Rx bufs are freed and reallocated instead of reused this will add some additional delay to the reconnection but this is expected to be small compared to the time taken by any backend hotplug scripts etc. Signed-off-by: David Vrabel <david.vrabel@citrix.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

An FDB entry with vlan_id 0 doesn't mean it is used in vlan 0, but used when vlan_filtering is disabled. There is inconsistency around NDA_VLAN whose payload is 0 - even if we add an entry by RTM_NEWNEIGH without any NDA_VLAN, and even though adding an entry with NDA_VLAN 0 is prohibited, we get an entry with NDA_VLAN 0 by RTM_GETNEIGH.

Ipv4 tunnels created with "local any remote $ip" didn't work properly since 7d442fab (ipv4: Cache dst in tunnels). 99% of packets sent via those tunnels had src addr = 0.0.0.0. That was because only dst_entry was cached, although fl4.saddr has to be cached too. Every time ip_tunnel_xmit used cached dst_entry (tunnel_rtable_get returned non-NULL), fl4.saddr was initialized with tnl_params->saddr (= 0 in our case), and wasn't changed until iptunnel_xmit(). This patch adds saddr to ip_tunnel->dst_cache, fixing this issue. Reported-by: Sergey Popov <pinkbyte@gentoo.org> Signed-off-by: Dmitry Popov <ixaphire@qrator.net> Signed-off-by: David S.

Pull Exynos platform DT fix from Grant Likely: "Device tree Exynos bug fix for v3.16-rc7 This bug fix has been brewing for a while. I hate sending it to you so late, but I only got confirmation that it solves the problem this past weekend. The diff looks big for a bug fix, but the majority of it is only executed in the Exynos quirk case. Unfortunately it required splitting early_init_dt_scan() in two and adding quirk handling in the middle of it on ARM. Exynos has buggy firmware that puts bad data into the memory node. Commit 1c2f87c2 ("ARM: Get rid of meminfo") exposed the bug by dropping the artificial upper bound on the number of memory banks that can be added. Exynos fails to boot after that commit. This branch fixes it by splitting the early DT parse function and inserting a fixup hook.

arch_gnttab_map_frames() and arch_gnttab_unmap_frames() are called in atomic context but were calling alloc_vm_area() which might sleep. Also, if a driver attempts to allocate a grant ref from an interrupt and the table needs expanding, then the CPU may already by in lazy MMU mode and apply_to_page_range() will BUG when it tries to re-enable lazy MMU mode. These two functions are only used in PV guests. Introduce arch_gnttab_init() to allocates the virtual address space in advance. Avoid the use of apply_to_page_range() by using saving and using the array of PTE addresses from the alloc_vm_area() call (which ensures that the required page tables are pre-allocated).

If the physical address of GICV isn't page-aligned, then we end up creating a stage-2 mapping of the page containing it, which causes us to map neighbouring memory locations directly into the guest. As an example, consider a platform with GICV at physical 0x2c02f000 running a 64k-page host kernel. If qemu maps this into the guest at 0x80010000, then guest physical addresses 0x80010000 - 0x8001efff will map host physical region 0x2c020000 - 0x2c02efff. Accesses to these physical regions may cause UNPREDICTABLE behaviour, for example, on the Juno platform this will cause an SError exception to EL3, which brings down the entire physical CPU resulting in RCU stalls / HYP panics / host crashing / wasted weeks of debugging. SBSA recommends that systems alias the 4k GICV across the bounding 64k region, in which case GICV physical could be described as 0x2c020000 in the above scenario. This patch fixes the problem by failing the vgic probe if the physical base address or the size of GICV aren't page-aligned. Note that this generated a warning in dmesg about freeing enabled IRQs, so I had to move the IRQ enabling later in the probe.

Commit 1c2f87c2 (ARM: 8025/1: Get rid of meminfo) dropped the upper bound on the number of memory banks that can be added as there was no technical need in the kernel. It turns out though, some bootloaders (specifically the arndale-octa exynos boards) may pass invalid memory information and rely on the kernel to not parse this data. This is a bug in the bootloader but we still need to work around this. Work around this by introducing a dt_fixup function. This function gets called before the flattened devicetree is scanned for memory and the like. In this fixup function for exynos, limit the maximum number of memory regions in the devicetree.

Currently, early_init_dt_scan validates the header, sets the boot params, and scans for chosen/memory all in one function. Split this up into two separate functions (validation/setting boot params in one, scanning in another) to allow for additional setup between boot params and scanning the memory.

Commit 87aa9f9c ("net: phy: consolidate PHY reset in phy_init_hw()") moved the call to phy_scan_fixups() in phy_init_hw() after a software reset is performed. By the time phy_init_hw() is called in phy_device_register(), no driver has been bound to this PHY yet, so all the checks in phy_init_hw() against the PHY driver and the PHY driver's config_init function will return 0. We will therefore never call phy_scan_fixups() as we should. Fix this by calling phy_scan_fixups() and check for its return value to restore the intended functionality. This broke PHY drivers which do register an early PHY fixup callback to intercept the PHY probing and do things like changing the 32-bits unique PHY identifier when a pseudo-PHY address has been used, as well as board-specific PHY fixups that need to be applied during driver probe time.

There are devices that don't do reset all the way. So the packet filter should be set to a sane initial value. Failure to do so leads to intermittent failures of DHCP on some systems under some conditions. Signed-off-by: Oliver Neukum <oneukum@suse.de> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
