Without this fix, virtio_net makes incorrect usage of scatterlists. It sets the end of the scatterlist chain after the first element, despite the fact that more entries come after it. If you try to run dma_map_sg() on one of the scatterlists given to you by add_buf(), you will get a null pointer oops. Signed-off-by: Ira W.

commit 77ecaf2d ("gianfar: Fix VLAN HW feature related frame/buffer size calculation") wrongly removed priv->vlgrp assignment, and now priv->vlgrp is always NULL. This patch fixes the issue, plus fixes following sparse warning introduced by the same commit: gianfar.c:1406:13: warning: context imbalance in 'gfar_vlan_rx_register' - wrong count at exit gfar_vlan_rx_register() checks for "if (old_grp == grp)" and tries to return w/o dropping the lock. According to net/8021q/vlan.c VLAN core issues rx_register() callback: 1. In register_vlan_dev() only on a newly created group; 2. In unregister_vlan_dev() only if the group becomes empty. Thus the check in the gianfar driver isn't needed. Signed-off-by: Anton Vorontsov <avorontsov@ru.mvista.com> Acked-by: Andy Fleming <afleming@freescale.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

In previous kernels, any kernel module could get access to the 'real-device' and the VLAN-ID for a particular VLAN. In more recent kernels, the code was restructured such that this is hard to do without accessing private .h files for any module that cannot use GPL-only symbols. Attached is a patch to once again allow non-GPL modules the ability to access the real-device and VLAN id for VLANs.

The current tx_has_work waited until all packets sent by the driver are marked as completed by the FW. This is too greedy and it causes the bnx2x_poll to spin in vain. The driver should only check that all packets FW already completed are freed - only in unload flow the driver should make sure that transmit queue is empty Signed-off-by: Vladislav Zolotarov <vladz@broadcom.com> Signed-off-by: Eilon Greenstein <eilong@broadcom.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

If userspace supplies an invalid pointer to a read() of an inotify instance, the inotify device's event list mutex is unlocked twice. This causes an unbalance which effectively leaves the data structure unprotected, and we can trigger oopses by accessing the inotify instance from different tasks concurrently. The best fix (contributed largely by Linus) is a total rewrite of the function in question: On Thu, Jan 22, 2009 at 7:05 AM, Linus Torvalds wrote: > The thing to notice is that: > > - locking is done in just one place, and there is no question about it > not having an unlock. > > - that whole double-while(1)-loop thing is gone. > > - use multiple functions to make nesting and error handling sane > > - do error testing after doing the things you always need to do, ie do > this: > > mutex_lock(..) > ret = function_call(); > mutex_unlock(..) > > .. test ret here .. > > instead of doing conditional exits with unlocking or freeing. > > So if the code is written in this way, it may still be buggy, but at least > it's not buggy because of subtle "forgot to unlock" or "forgot to free" > issues. > > This _always_ unlocks if it locked, and it always frees if it got a > non-error kevent.
