The dcb netlink interface leaks stack memory in various places: * perm_addr[] buffer is only filled at max with 12 of the 32 bytes but copied completely, * no in-kernel driver fills all fields of an IEEE 802.1Qaz subcommand, so we're leaking up to 58 bytes for ieee_ets structs, up to 136 bytes for ieee_pfc structs, etc., * the same is true for CEE -- no in-kernel driver fills the whole struct, Prevent all of the above stack info leaks by properly initializing the buffers/structures involved.

Initialize the mac address buffer with 0 as the driver specific function will probably not fill the whole buffer. In fact, all in-kernel drivers fill only ETH_ALEN of the MAX_ADDR_LEN bytes, i.e. 6 of the 32 possible bytes. Therefore we currently leak 26 bytes of stack memory to userland via the netlink interface. Signed-off-by: Mathias Krause <minipli@googlemail.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

The bridging code discloses heap and stack bytes via the RTM_GETMDB netlink interface and via the notify messages send to group RTNLGRP_MDB afer a successful add/del. Fix both cases by initializing all unset members/padding bytes with memset(0).

Commit f4a46d1f introduced a bug where the ifconfig stats would remain 0 for phylib devices. This is due to tp->link_up flag never becoming true causing tg3_periodic_fetch_stats() to return. The link_up flag was being updated in tg3_test_and_report_link_chg() after setting up the phy. This function however, is not called for phylib devices since the driver does not do the phy setup. This patch moves the link_up flag update into the common tg3_link_report() function that gets called for phylib devices as well for non phylib devices when the link state changes. To avoid updating link_up twice, we replace tg3_carrier_...() calls that are followed by tg3_link_report(), with netif_carrier_...(). We can then remove the unused tg3_carrier_on() function.

The frames for which rx_handlers return RX_HANDLER_CONSUMED are no longer counted as dropped. They are counted as successfully received by 'netif_receive_skb'.

When a KR2 device is connected to a KR link-partner, sometimes it requires disabling KR2 for the link to come up. To get a KR2 link up later, in case no base pages are seen, the KR2 is restored. The problem was that some link partners cleared their advertised BP/NP after around two seconds, causing the driver to disable/enable KR2 link all the time. The fix was to wait at least 5 seconds before checking KR2 recovery. Signed-off-by: Yaniv Rosner <yanivr@broadcom.com> Signed-off-by: Eilon Greenstein <eilong@broadcom.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Commit 37706996 "mlx4_en: fix allocation of CPU affinity reverse-map" fixed a bug when mlx4_dev->caps.comp_pool is larger from the device rx rings, but introduced a regression. When the mlx4_core is activating its "legacy mode" (e.g when running in SRIOV mode) w.r.t to EQs/IRQs usage, comp_pool becomes zero and we're crashing on divide by zero alloc_cpu_rmap. Fix that by enabling RFS only when running in non-legacy mode.

The set_param_l function assumes casting a u64 pointer to a u32 pointer allows to access the lower 32bits, but it results in writing the upper 32 bits on big endian systems. The fixed function reads the upper 32 bits of the 64 argument, and or's them with the 32 bits of the 32-bit value passed to the function. Since this is now a "read-modify-write" operation, we got many "unintialized variable" warnings which needed to be fixed as well. Reported-by: Alexander Schmidt <alexschm@de.ibm.com>.

This patch removes redundant actions from driver and fixes its interaction with actions in pci-bus runtime power management code. It removes pci_save_state() from __e1000_shutdown() for normal adapters, PCI bus callbacks pci_pm_*() will do all this for us. Now __e1000_shutdown() switches to D3-state only quad-port adapters, because they needs quirk for clearing false-positive error from downsteam pci-e port. pci_save_state() now called after clearing bus-master bit, thus __e1000_resume() and e1000_io_slot_reset() must set it back after restoring configuration space. This patch set get_link_status before calling pm_runtime_put() in e1000_open() to allow e1000_idle() get real link status and schedule first runtime suspend. This patch also enables wakeup for device if management mode is enabled (like for WoL) as result pci_prepare_to_sleep() would setup wakeup without special actions like custom 'enable_wakeup' sign.

John W. Linville says: ==================== This time just passing along a big batch of fixes from Johannes... For the mac80211 bits: "Here I have fixes from Ben Greear for stray work items when deleting interfaces, another idle handling fix from Felix, a fix from Marco ro a mesh PS buffering crash and I have a fix for the VHT MCS calculation in association request frames and more nl80211 feature advertising removal as well as a workaround to increase the dump size if the SKB overhead is too large. For 3.10 I already have a complete fix queued, but that also requires (simple) userspace changes." And for the iwlwifi bits: "The patches from Dor fix a bunch of calibration issues in the new MVM driver, and Emmanuel has a number of fixes there as well. Also, we decided to disable 8k A-MSDU by default, so that's in there. My own patches are addressing an issue we found with the new devices but that seems to also exist on older ones, the DMA writeback the devices do can be delayed and cause issues. The fix is unfortunately relatively large and depends on two other changes (to not be hugely conflicting), but I think it's still worth it at this point." As Johannes says, it is a bit large. But I hope it is still early enough in the cycle to make that worthwhile. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

The SLIPORT_SEMAPHORE register shadowed in the config-space may not reflect the correct POST stage after an EEH reset in BE2/3; it may return FW_READY state even though FW is not ready. This causes the driver to prematurely poll the FW mailbox and fail. For BE2/3 use the CSR-BAR/0xac instead.

Ben Hutchings says: ==================== Fix regressions introduced by the last set of fixes (sorry): 1. Potential deadlock when disabling TX queues. 2. RX was broken on architectures other than x86 and powerpc. I still expect to send one more bug fix for 3.9, but as it sometimes takes days to reproduce the bug it's going to take a couple of weeks of testing to be confident that it's really fixed. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

RX DMA buffers start at an offset of EFX_PAGE_IP_ALIGN bytes from the start of a cache line. This offset obviously needs to be included in the virtual address, but this was missed in commit b590ace0 ('sfc: Fix efx_rx_buf_offset() in the presence of swiotlb') since EFX_PAGE_IP_ALIGN is equal to 0 on both x86 and powerpc.
