      macvlan: better mode validation · 266e8347
      Michael S. Tsirkin authored 
      macvlan passthrough mode is special: it's not possible to switch to or
from it through a netlink command.

But if you try, the command will succeed, which is
confusing.

Validate input and return error to user.

---[ end trace b02321f40e4269a3 ]---

We have the following call chain:

tipc_core_start()
    ret = tipc_subscr_start()
        ret = tipc_server_start(){
                  server->enabled = 1;
                  ret = tipc_open_listening_sock()
              }

I.e., the server->enabled flag is unconditionally set to 1, whatever
the return value of tipc_open_listening_sock().

This causes a crash when tipc_core_start() tries to clean up
resources after a failed initialization:

    if (ret == failed)
        tipc_subscr_stop()
            tipc_server_stop(){
                if (server->enabled)
                    tipc_close_conn(){
                        NULL reference of con->sock-sk
                        OOPS!
                }
            }

To avoid this, tipc_server_start() should only set server->enabled
to 1 in case of a succesful socket creation. In case of failure, it
should release all allocated resources before returning.

Problem introduced in commit c5fa7b3c
("tipc: introduce new TIPC server infrastructure") in v3.11-rc1.
Note that it won't be seen often; it takes a module load under memory
constrained conditions in order to trigger the failure condition.

      Jack Morgenstein authored 
      Slaves get the 64B CQE/EQE state from QUERY_HCA, not from the module parameter.

If the parameter is set to zero, the slave outputs an incorrect/irrelevant
warning message that 64B CQEs/EQEs are supported but not enabled (even if the
hypervisor has enabled 64B CQEs/EQEs).

      Or Gerlitz authored 
      If the user has not assigned a MAC address to a VM, then don't give it MAC which
is based on the PF one. The current derivation scheme is wrong and leads to VM
MAC collisions when the number of cards/hypervisors becomes big enough.

Instead, just give it zeros and let them figure out what to do with that.

      ipv6: prevent race between address creation and removal · 8a226b2c
      Jiri Benc authored 
      There's a race in IPv6 automatic addess assignment. The address is created
with zero lifetime when it's added to various address lists. Before it gets
assigned the correct lifetime, there's a window where a new address may be
configured. This causes the semi-initiated address to be deleted in
addrconf_verify.

This was discovered as a reference leak caused by concurrent run of
__ipv6_ifa_notify for both RTM_NEWADDR and RTM_DELADDR with the same
address.

Fix this by setting the lifetime before the address is added to
inet6_addr_lst.

A few notes:

1. In addrconf_prefix_rcv, by setting update_lft to zero, the
   if (update_lft) { ... } condition is no longer executed for newly
   created addresses. This is okay, as the ifp fields are set in
   ipv6_add_addr now and ipv6_ifa_notify is called (and has been called)
   through addrconf_dad_start.

2. The removal of the whole block under ifp->lock in inet6_addr_add is okay,
   too, as tstamp is initialized to jiffies in ipv6_add_addr.

      Michal Kubeček authored 
      As pointed out by Eric Dumazet, net->ipv6.ip6_rt_last_gc should
hold the last time garbage collector was run so that we should
update it whenever fib6_run_gc() calls fib6_clean_all(), not only
if we got there from ip6_dst_gc().

      ipv6: prevent fib6_run_gc() contention · 2ac3ac8f
      Michal Kubeček authored 
      On a high-traffic router with many processors and many IPv6 dst
entries, soft lockup in fib6_run_gc() can occur when number of
entries reaches gc_thresh.

This happens because fib6_run_gc() uses fib6_gc_lock to allow
only one thread to run the garbage collector but ip6_dst_gc()
doesn't update net->ipv6.ip6_rt_last_gc until fib6_run_gc()
returns. On a system with many entries, this can take some time
so that in the meantime, other threads pass the tests in
ip6_dst_gc() (ip6_rt_last_gc is still not updated) and wait for
the lock. They then have to run the garbage collector one after
another which blocks them for quite long.

Resolve this by replacing special value ~0UL of expire parameter
to fib6_run_gc() by explicit "force" parameter to choose between
spin_lock_bh() and spin_trylock_bh() and call fib6_run_gc() with
force=false if gc_thresh is reached but not max_size.

      David S. Miller authored 
      John W. Linville says:

====================
This pull request is intended for the 3.11 stream.  It is a bit
larger than usual, as it includes pulls from most of my feeder trees
as well...

For the Bluetooth bits, Gustavo says:

"A few fixes and devices ID additions for 3.11:

 * There are 4 new ath3k device ids
 * Fixed stack memory usage in ath3k.
 * Fixed the init process of BlueFRITZ! devices, they were failing to init
   due to an unsupported command we sent.
 * Fixed wrong use of PTR_ERR in btusb code that was preventing intel devices
   to work properly.
 * Fixed race condition between hci_register_dev() and hci_dev_open() that
   could cause a NULL pointer dereference.
 * Fixed race condition that could call hci_req_cmd_complete() and make some
   devices to fail as showed in the log added to the commit message."

Regarding the NFC bits, Samuel says:

"We have:

1) A build failure fix for the NCI SPI transport layer due to a
   missing CRC_CCITT Kconfig dependency.

2) A netlink command rename: CMD_FW_UPLOAD was merged during the 3.11
   merge window but the typical terminology for loading a firmware to a
   target is firmware download rather than upload. In order to avoid any
   confusion in a file exported to userspace, we rename this command to
   CMD_FW_DOWNLOAD."

Samuel's item #2 isn't strictly a fix, but it seems safe and should
avoid confusion in the future.

As for the mac80211 bits, Johannes says:

"I only have three fixes this time, a fix for a suspend regression, a
patch correcting the initiator in regulatory code and one fix for mesh
station powersave."

With respect to the iwlwifi bits, Johannes says:

"We have a scan fix for passive channels, a new PCI device ID for an old
device, a NIC reset fix, an RF-Kill fix, a fix for powersave when GO
interfaces are present as well as an aggregation session fix (for a
corner case) and a workaround for a firmware design issue - it only
supports a single GTK in D3."

Bringing-up the rear with the Atheros trees, Kalle says:

"Geert Uytterhoeven fixed an ath10k build problem when NO_DMA=y. I added
a missing MAINTAINERS entry for ath10k and updated ath6kl git tree
location."

Along with the above...

Arend van Spriel fixes a brcmfmac WARNING when unplugging the device.

Avinash Patil proves a couple of minor mwifiex fixes relating to P2P mode.

Luciano Coelho updates the MAINTAINERS entry for the wilink drivers.

Stanislaw Gruszka brings an rt2x00 fix for a queue start/stop problem.

Stone Piao fixes another mwifiex problem, a command timeout related to P2P mode.

Tomasz Moń corrects an endian problem in mwifiex.

I'll remind my feeder maintainers to slowdown the patchflow.
Beyond that, please let me know if there are problems!

      bridge: disable snooping if there is no querier · b00589af
      Linus Lüssing authored 
      If there is no querier on a link then we won't get periodic reports and
therefore won't be able to learn about multicast listeners behind ports,
potentially leading to lost multicast packets, especially for multicast
listeners that joined before the creation of the bridge.

These lost multicast packets can appear since c5c23260
("bridge: Add multicast_querier toggle and disable queries by default")
in particular.

With this patch we are flooding multicast packets if our querier is
disabled and if we didn't detect any other querier.

A grace period of the Maximum Response Delay of the querier is added to
give multicast responses enough time to arrive and to be learned from
before disabling the flooding behaviour again.

It showed several backtraces arising for dma_map_* usage without checking the
return code on the mapping.  Add the check and abort the rx/tx operation if its
failed.  Untested as I have no hardware and the reporter has wandered off, but
seems pretty straightforward.
