The /dev/rfkill ops don't refer to the module, so it is possible to unload the module while file descriptors are open. Fix this oversight. Reported-by:

Fix soft-lockup in hso.c which is triggered on SMP machine when modem is removed while file descriptor(s) under /dev are still open: old version called kref_put() too early which resulted in destroying hso_serial and hso_device objects which were still used later on. Signed-off-by:

Commit e6fce5b9 (pktgen: multiqueue etc.) tried to relax the pktgen restriction of one device per kernel thread, adding a '@' tag to device names. Problem is we dont perform check on full pktgen device name. This allows adding many time same 'device' to pktgen thread pgset "add_device eth0@0" one session later : pgset "add_device eth0@0" (This doesnt find previous device) This consumes ~1.5 MBytes of vmalloc memory per round and also triggers this warning : [ 673.186380] proc_dir_entry 'pktgen/eth0@0' already registered [ 673.186383] Modules linked in: pktgen ixgbe ehci_hcd psmouse mdio mousedev evdev [last unloaded: pktgen] [ 673.186406] Pid: 6219, comm: bash Tainted: G W 2.6.32-rc7-03302-g41cec6f1-dirty #16 [ 673.186410] Call Trace: [ 673.186417] [<ffffffff8104a29b>] warn_slowpath_common+0x7b/0xc0 [ 673.186422] [<ffffffff8104a341>] warn_slowpath_fmt+0x41/0x50 [ 673.186426] [<ffffffff8114e789>] proc_register+0x109/0x210 [ 673.186433] [<ffffffff8100bf2e>] ? apic_timer_interrupt+0xe/0x20 [ 673.186438] [<ffffffff8114e905>] proc_create_data+0x75/0xd0 [ 673.186444] [<ffffffffa006ad38>] pktgen_thread_write+0x568/0x640 [pktgen] [ 673.186449] [<ffffffffa006a7d0>] ? pktgen_thread_write+0x0/0x640 [pktgen] [ 673.186453] [<ffffffff81149144>] proc_reg_write+0x84/0xc0 [ 673.186458] [<ffffffff810f5a58>] vfs_write+0xb8/0x180 [ 673.186463] [<ffffffff810f5c11>] sys_write+0x51/0x90 [ 673.186468] [<ffffffff8100b51b>] system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b [ 673.186470] ---[ end trace ccbb991b0a8d994d ]--- Solution to this problem is to use a odevname field (includes @ tag and suffix), instead of using netdevice name.

o Along with netdev->perm_addr, mac address will be maintained in device private structure. o Device limitation: We need to set mac address when ever interface comes up. In ALB/TAL mode, bonding driver calls set_mac for all slave with bond mac address. But bonding driver set netdev->dev_addr field to its original value, after enslaving interfaces. When ever active slave changes, it swap dev_addr of inactive slave with active. Yet it doesn't notify driver about change in netdev->dev_addr. As netxen driver need to set mac addr when ever interface comes up, it can't rely on netdev->dev_addr field. Specially in case of bonding mode ALB/TLB. Signed-off-by:

Summary of Changes: -Fix to receive multicast packets by setting the corresponding hardware bit during initialization. -Fix to re-enable the interface [by interface up command(ifup)] while the interface is down. -Fix to be able to down the interface by passing the last parameter correctly to request_irq(). -Remove to read 4 extra bytes from the receiving queue after reading a packet, even though it does not cause a predictable issue now. -Remove occurrences of transmission done interrupt in order to tx throughput enhancement. -Enable IP checksum for packet receiving by setting the corresponding hardware bit during initialization. -Relocate ks_enable_int()/ks_disable_int() in order not to declare those functions at the beginning of the file. -Rename ks_enable()/_disable() to ks_enable_qmu()/ks_disable_qmu() in order to give more meaningful names and relocate them not declaire those functions at the beginning of the file.

Remove unnecessary workaround that mistakenly does not perform a page select operation for PHY registers 29 and 30 (assuming these are the PHY debug port address and data registers) on 82578 which can cause reads of the Transmit with No Carrier Sense statistics register on page 778 to be read from an incorrect page.

Commit 3ec2a2b8 broke Tx/Rx when using jumbo frames on certain parts (i.e. only PAUSE frames could be exchanged once the high water mark was reached preventing normal packet traffic). This patch reverts the breakage and sets appropriate high and low water marks of the Rx FIFO for 82577/82578 which require a workaround due to a flow control issue in hardware. Signed-off-by:

veth_get_stats() can be called in parallel on several cpus. It's better to not reset dev->stats as it could give wrong result on one cpu. Use temporary variables, then store the final results. Also, we should loop on every possible cpus, not only online cpus, or cpu hotplug can suddenly give wrong veth stats. Signed-off-by:

When mac80211 resumes, it currently first sets suspended to false so the driver can start doing things and we can receive frames. However, if we actually receive frames then it can end up starting some work which adds timers and then later runs into a BUG_ON in the timer code because it tries add_timer() on a pending timer. Fix this by keeping track of the resuming process by introducing a new variable 'resuming' which gets set to true early on instead of setting 'suspended' to false, and allow queueing work but not receiving frames while resuming.

Doing the strcmp return value as signed char __res = *cs - *ct; is wrong for two reasons. The subtraction can overflow because __res doesn't use a type big enough. Moreover the compared bytes should be interpreted as unsigned char as specified by POSIX. The same problem is fixed in strncmp. Signed-off-by:

commit 2171abc5 Author: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Date: Thu Oct 29 08:34:00 2009 +0100 mac80211: fix addba timer left a problem in there, even if the timer was never started it could be deleted and then added. Linus pointed out that del_timer_sync() isn't actually needed if we make the timer able to deal with no longer being needed when it gets queued _while_ we're in the locked section that also deletes it. For that the timer function only needs to check the HT_ADDBA_RECEIVED_MSK bit as well as the HT_ADDBA_REQUESTED_MSK bit, only if the former is clear should it do anything.
