      vmxnet3: Fix race between dev_open() and register_netdev() · e3bc4ffb
      Steve Hodgson authored
      dev_open() can complete before register_netdev() returns.
      Fix vmxnet3_probe_device() to support this.

      bridge: fix rcu dereference outside of rcu_read_lock · c03307ea
      Stephen Hemminger authored
      Alternative solution for problem found by Linux Driver Verification
      project (linuxtesting.org).
      
      As it noted in the comment before the br_handle_frame_finish
      function, this function should be called under rcu_read_lock.
      
      The problem callgraph:
      br_dev_xmit -> br_nf_pre_routing_finish_bridge_slow ->
       -> br_handle_frame_finish -> br_port_get_rcu -> rcu_dereference
      
      And in this case there is no read-lock section.

      llc: Fix races between llc2 handler use and (un)registration · aadf31de
      Ben Hutchings authored
      When registering the handlers, any state they rely on must be
      completely initialised first.  When unregistering, we must wait until
      they are definitely no longer running.  llc_rcv() must also avoid
      reading the handler pointers again after checking for NULL.

      possibility by simply initialising the state as UP.

      ipv4: Cache local output routes · 7bd86cc2
      Yan, Zheng authored
      Commit caacf05e causes big drop of UDP loop back performance.
      The cause of the regression is that we do not cache the local output
      routes. Each time we send a datagram from unconnected UDP socket,
      the kernel allocates a dst_entry and adds it to the rt_uncached_list.
      It creates lock contention on the rt_uncached_lock.

      net: qmi_wwan: add Sierra Wireless devices · 9b469a60
      Bjørn Mork authored
      Add 6 new devices and one modified device, based on
      information from laptop vendor Windows drivers.
      
      Sony provides a driver with two new devices using
      a Gobi 2k+ layout (1199:68a5 and 1199:68a9).  The
      Sony driver also adds a non-standard QMI/net
      interface to the already supported 1199:9011
      Gobi device. We do not know whether this is an
      alternate interface number or an additional
      interface which might be present, but that doesn't
      really matter.
      
      Lenovo provides a driver supporting 4 new devices:
       - MC7770 (1199:901b) with standard Gobi 2k+ layout
       - MC7700 (0f3d:68a2) with layout similar to MC7710
       - MC7750 (114f:68a2) with layout similar to MC7710
       - EM7700 (1199:901c) with layout similar to MC7710
      
      Note regaring the three devices similar to MC7710:
      
      The Windows drivers only support interface #8 on these
      devices.  The MC7710 can support QMI/net functions on
      interface #19 and #20 as well, and this driver is
      verified to work on interface #19 (a firmware bug is
      suspected to prevent #20 from working).
      
      We do not enable these additional interfaces until they
      either show up in a Windows driver or are verified to
      work in some other way.  Therefore limiting the new
      devices to interface #8 for now.

      Instead of class/subclass/protocol the vendor use fixed
      interface numbers for each function, and the Windows
      drivers use these numbers to match driver and function.
      
      The driver has had its own interface number whitelisting
      code to simulate this functionality.  Replace this with
      generic interface number matching now that the USB subsystem
      support is there. This
       - removes the need for a driver_info structure per
         interface number,
       - avoids running the probe function for unsupported
         interfaces, and
       - simplifies the code.
