NL80211_CMD_GET_MESH_PARAMS and NL80211_CMD_SET_MESH_PARAMS handlers did not verify whether a function pointer is NULL (not supported by the driver) before trying to call the function. The former nl80211 command is available for unprivileged users, too, so this can potentially allow normal users to kill networking (or worse..) if mac80211 is built without CONFIG_MAC80211_MESH=y.

smsc911x_phy_adjust_link is called periodically by the phy layer (as it's run in polling mode), and it only updates the hardware when it sees a change in duplex or carrier. This patch clears the last known values every time the interface is brought up, instead of only when the module is loaded. Without this patch the adjust_link function never updates the hardware after an ifconfig down; ifconfig up. On a full duplex link this causes the tx error counter to increment, even though packets are correctly transmitted, as the default MAC_CR register setting is for half duplex. The tx errors are "no carrier" errors, which should be ignored in full-duplex mode. When MAC_CR is set to "full duplex" mode they are correctly ignored by the hardware. Note that even with this patch the tx error counter can increment if packets are transmitted between "ifconfig up" and the first phy poll interval. An improved solution would use the phy interrupt with phylib, but I haven't managed to make this work 100% robustly yet.

dev can be NULL in ip[6]_frag_reasm for skb's coming from RAW sockets. Quagga's OSPFD sends fragmented packets on a RAW socket, when netfilter conntrack reassembles them on the OUTPUT path you hit this code path.

Tulip is currently doing request_irq before it has done its initialization. This is usually not a problem because it hasn't enable interrupts yet, but with DEBUG_SHIRQ on, we call the irq handler when registering the interrupt as a sanity check. This can result in a NULL ptr dereference, so call tulip_init_ring before request_irq, and add a free_ring function to do the freeing now shared with tulip_close. Tested with a shell loop running ifup, ifdown in a loop a few hundred times with DEBUG_SHIRQ on. Signed-off-by: Kyle McMartin <kyle@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Impact: Make NetworkManager work with virtio_net For now the semantics are simple: There is always carrier. This allows a seamless experience with e.g., qemu/kvm where NetworkManager just configures and sets up everything automagically. If/when a generally agreed-upon way to control carrier on/off in the emulator/hypervisor level emerges, it will be trivial to extend the driver to support that too, but for now even this 2-liner makes user experience that much better.

This patch corrects an omission from the following commit: commit f0c76d61 Author: Jay Vosburgh <fubar@us.ibm.com> Date: Wed Jul 2 18:21:58 2008 -0700 bonding: refactor mii monitor The un-refactored code checked the link speed and duplex of every slave on every pass; the refactored code did not do so. The 802.3ad and balance-alb/tlb modes utilize the speed and duplex information, and require it to be kept up to date. This patch adds a notifier check to perform the appropriate updating when the slave device speed changes. Signed-off-by: Jay Vosburgh <fubar@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

The MSI-X handler was chosen before the call to pci_enable_msix(). If MSI-X was not available, the wrong MSI-X handler would be used in INTA mode. This would cause a screaming interrupt problem because INTA would not be cleared by the MSI-X handler. Fixed by assigning MSI-X handler after pci_enable_msix() returns successfully. Also update version to 1.9.3. Thomas Chenault <thomas_chenault@dell.com> helped us find this problem. Signed-off-by: Michael Chan <mchan@broadcom.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

On the legacy netif_rx path, I incorrectly tried to optimise the napi_complete call by using __napi_complete before we reenable IRQs. This simply doesn't work since we need to flush the held GRO packets first. This patch fixes it by doing the obvious thing of reenabling IRQs first and then calling napi_complete.

zd_op_tx() must not return an arbitrary error value since that can leave mac80211 trying to retransmit the frame and with the extra data pushed into the beginning of the skb on every attempt, this will end up causing a kernel panic (skb_under_panic from skb_push call).

It was possible to hit a kernel panic on NULL pointer dereference in dev_queue_xmit() when sending power save buffered frames to a STA that woke up from sleep. This happened when the buffered frame was requeued for transmission in ap_sta_ps_end(). In order to avoid the panic, copy the skb->dev and skb->iif values from the first fragment to all other fragments. Signed-off-by: Jouni Malinen <jouni.malinen@atheros.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

When mv643xx_eth_open() is called to up an interface, port_start() will first re-program the unicast address filter, and then re-initialise the PORT_CONFIG register, but that will disable unicast promiscuous mode if it was enabled by the unicast address filter setup. This isn't a problem on ifconfig up, as ->set_rx_mode() will be called shortly afterwards which will program the filters again, but it does trigger when changing the MTU, which calls mv643xx_eth_stop() and then mv643xx_eth_open() by hand to repopulate the receive rings with skbuffs of the new size. Swap the initialisation of the PORT_START register and the call to the unicast filter setup function to fix this. Signed-off-by: Lennert Buytenhek <buytenh@marvell.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
