This patch fix a double free when a network namespace fails. The previous code does a kfree of the net_generic structure when one of the init subsystem initialization fails. The 'setup_net' function does kfree(ng) and returns an error. The caller, 'copy_net_ns', call net_free on error, and this one calls kfree(net->gen), making this pointer freed twice. This patch make the code symetric, the net_alloc does the net_generic allocation and the net_free frees the net_generic. Signed-off-by: Daniel Lezcano <daniel.lezcano@free.fr> Signed-off-by: David S.

This is a one liner change to have the driver use by default the v1.4 of the i2400m firmware instead of v1.3. The v1.4 version of the firmware has been submitted to David Woodhouse for inclusion in the linux-firmware tree and it is already available at http://linuxwimax.org/Download. The reason for this change is that the 1.3 release of the user space software and firmware has a few issues that will make it difficult to use with currently deployed commercial networks such as Xohm and Clearwire. As well, the new 1.4 release of the user space software (which matches the 1.4 firmware) has intermitent issues with the 1.3 firmware. The 1.4 release in http://linuxwimax.org/Download has been widely deployed and tested with the codebase in 2.6.29-rc, the 1.4 firmware and the 1.4 user space components. We understand it is quite late in the rc process for such a change, but would like to ask for the change to be taken into consideration. Alternatively, a user could always force feed a 1.4 firmware into a driver that doesn't have this modification by: $ cd /lib/firmware $ mv i2400m-fw-usb-1.3.sbcf i2400m-fw-usb-1.3.real.sbcf $ ln -sf i2400m-fw-usb-1.4.sbc i2400m-fw-usb-1.3.sbcf Signed-off-by: Inaky Perez-Gonzalez <inaky@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

mib_counters_update() also restarts the timer. So the timer is dequeued, the stats are read and then the timer is enqueued again. This is "okay" unless someone unloads the module. The locking here is also broken: mib_counters_update() grabs just a simple spinlock. The only thing the lock is good for is to protect the timer func against other callers namely mv643xx_eth_stop() && mv643xx_eth_get_ethtool_stats(). That means if the spinlock is taken via the ethtool path and than the timer kicks in then the box will lock up.

A long time ago we had bugs, primarily in TCP, where we would modify skb->truesize (for TSO queue collapsing) in ways which would corrupt the socket memory accounting. skb_truesize_check() was added in order to try and catch this error more systematically. However this debugging check has morphed into a Frankenstein of sorts and these days it does nothing other than catch false-positives. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Commit f55c21fd ("forcedeth: call restore mac addr in nv_shutdown path"), which was introduced to fix the regression tracked at http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11358 causes the wake-on-lan mac to be reversed in the shutdown path. Apparently the forcedeth situation is rather messy in that the mac we need to writeback for a subsequent modprobe to work is exactly the reverse of what is needed for proper wake-on-lan. The following patch explains the situation in the comments and makes the call to nv_restore_mac_addr() conditional (only called if we are not really going for poweroff).

When a non-wimax interface is looked up by the stack, a bad pointer is returned when the looked-up interface is not found in the list (of registered WiMAX interfaces). This causes an oops in the caller when trying to use the pointer. Fix by properly setting the pointer to NULL if we don't exit from the list_for_each() with a found entry.

In function sock_getsockopt() located in net/core/sock.c, optval v.val is not correctly initialized and directly returned in userland in case we have SO_BSDCOMPAT option set. This dummy code should trigger the bug: int main(void) { unsigned char buf[4] = { 0, 0, 0, 0 }; int len; int sock; sock = socket(33, 2, 2); getsockopt(sock, 1, SO_BSDCOMPAT, &buf, &len); printf("%x%x%x%x\n", buf[0], buf[1], buf[2], buf[3]); close(sock); } Here is a patch that fix this bug by initalizing v.val just after its declaration.

The problem is that in_atomic() will return false inside spinlocks if CONFIG_PREEMPT=n. This will lead to deadlockable GFP_KERNEL allocations from spinlocked regions. Secondly, if CONFIG_PREEMPT=y, this bug solves itself because networking will instead use GFP_ATOMIC from this callsite. Hence we won't get the might_sleep() debugging warnings which would have informed us of the buggy callsites. Solve both these problems by switching to in_interrupt(). Now, if someone runs a gfp_any() allocation from inside spinlock we will get the warning if CONFIG_PREEMPT=y. I reviewed all callsites and most of them were too complex for my little brain and none of them documented their interface requirements. I have no idea what this patch will do.
