Based on patches from Sonny Rao and Milton Miller... Combined the patches to fix up clean_tx_irq and clean_rx_irq. The PowerPC architecture does not require loads to independent bytes to be ordered without adding an explicit barrier. In ixgbe_clean_rx_irq we load the status bit then load the packet data. With packet split disabled if these loads go out of order we get a stale packet, but we will notice the bad sequence numbers and drop it. The problem occurs with packet split enabled where the TCP/IP header and data are in different descriptors. If the reads go out of order we may have data that doesn't match the TCP/IP header. Since we use hardware checksumming this bad data is never verified and it makes it all the way to the application. This bug was found during stress testing and adding this barrier has been shown to fix it. The bug can manifest as a data integrity issue (bad payload data) or as a BUG in skb_pull(). This was a nasty bug to hunt down, if people agree with the fix I think it's a candidate for stable. Previously Submitted to e1000-devel only for ixgbe http://marc.info/?l=e1000-devel&m=126593062701537&w=3 We've now seen this problem hit with other device drivers (e1000e mostly) So I'm resubmitting with fixes for other Intel Device Drivers with similar issues.

Building ixgbe without DCB_CONFIG and FCOE_CONFIG will cause a build error. This resolves the build error by wrapping the fcoe.up in CONFIG_IXGBE_DCB ifdefs. Also frames were being priority VLAN tagged even without DCB enabled. This fixes this so that 8021Q priority tags are only added with DCB actually enabled.

In the RX tasklet's find_vcc() function we first refuse to use a VCC which already has the ATM_VF_READY bit cleared. And in the VCC close function, we synchronise with the tasklet to ensure that it can't still be using the VCC before we continue and allow the VCC to be destroyed.

Although netif_rx() isn't expected to be called in process context with preemption enabled, it'd better handle this case. And this is why get_cpu() is used in the non-RPS #ifdef branch. If tree RCU is selected, rcu_read_lock() won't disable preemption, so preempt_disable() should be called explictly. Signed-off-by: Changli Gao <xiaosuo@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

spin_is_locked() can return zero on some (UP?) configurations because locks don't exist, and that causes an endless amount of warnings. Use lockdep_assert_held() instead, which has two advantages: 1) it verifies the current task is holding the lock or mutex 2) it compiles away completely when lockdep is not enabled Cc: stable@kernel.org [2.6.34+, maybe only parts of patch] Reported-by: Thomas Meyer <thomas@m3y3r.de> Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

The main motivation of this patch changing strcpy() to strlcpy(). We strcpy() to copy a 48 byte buffers into a 49 byte buffers. So at best the last byte has leaked information, or maybe there is an overflow? Anyway, this patch closes the information leaks by zeroing the memory and the calls to strlcpy() prevent overflows.

Fix this leftover TODO from the cfg80211 conversion by doing a scan if cfg80211 didn't pass in the BSSID for us. Since the scan code uses so much of the cfg80211_scan_request structure to build up the firmware command, we just fake one when the scan request is triggered internally. But we need to make sure that internal 'fake' cfg82011 scan request does not get back to cfg82011 via cfg80211_scan_done(). Signed-off-by: Dan Williams <dcbw@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

Some APs get pissy if you don't send the firmware the extended rates in the association request's rates TLV. Found this on a Linksys WRT54G v2; it denies association with status code 18 unless you add the extended rates too. The old driver did this, but it got lost in the cfg80211 conversion.

I often use "ethtool -i" command to check what driver controls the ehternet device. But because current virtio_net driver doesn't support "ethtool -i", it becomes the following: # ethtool -i eth3 Cannot get driver information: Operation not supported This patch simply adds the "ethtool -i" support. The following is the result when using the virtio_net driver with my patch applied to. # ethtool -i eth3 driver: virtio_net version: N/A firmware-version: N/A bus-info: virtio0 Personally, "-i" is one of the most frequently-used option, and most network drivers support "ethtool -i", so I think virtio_net also should do.

RxRPC can potentially deadlock as rxrpc_resend_time_expired() wants to get call->state_lock so that it can alter the state of an RxRPC call. However, its caller (call_timer_fn()) has an apparent lock on the timer struct. The problem is that rxrpc_resend_time_expired() isn't permitted to lock call->state_lock as this could cause a deadlock against rxrpc_send_abort() as that takes state_lock and then attempts to delete the resend timer by calling del_timer_sync(). The deadlock can occur because del_timer_sync() will sit there forever waiting for rxrpc_resend_time_expired() to return, but the latter may then wait for call->state_lock, which rxrpc_send_abort() holds around del_timer_sync()... This leads to a warning appearing in the kernel log that looks something like the attached. It should be sufficient to simply dispense with the locks. It doesn't matter if we set the resend timer expired event bit and queue the event processor whilst we're changing state to one where the resend timer is irrelevant as the event can just be ignored by the processor thereafter. ======================================================= [ INFO: possible circular locking dependency detected ] 2.6.35-rc3-cachefs+ #115 ------------------------------------------------------- swapper/0 is trying to acquire lock: (&call->state_lock){++--..}, at: [<ffffffffa00200d4>] rxrpc_resend_time_expired+0x56/0x96 [af_rxrpc] but task is already holding lock: (&call->resend_timer){+.-...}, at: [<ffffffff8103b675>] run_timer_softirq+0x182/0x2a5 which lock already depends on the new lock. the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is: -> #1 (&call->resend_timer){+.-...}: [<ffffffff810560bc>] __lock_acquire+0x889/0x8fa [<ffffffff81056184>] lock_acquire+0x57/0x6d [<ffffffff8103bb9c>] del_timer_sync+0x3c/0x86 [<ffffffffa002bb7a>] rxrpc_send_abort+0x50/0x97 [af_rxrpc] [<ffffffffa002bdd9>] rxrpc_kernel_abort_call+0xa1/0xdd [af_rxrpc] [<ffffffffa0061588>] afs_deliver_to_call+0x129/0x368 [kafs] [<ffffffffa006181b>] afs_process_async_call+0x54/0xff [kafs] [<ffffffff8104261d>] worker_thread+0x1ef/0x2e2 [<ffffffff81045f47>] kthread+0x7a/0x82 [<ffffffff81002cd4>] kernel_thread_helper+0x4/0x10 -> #0 (&call->state_lock){++--..}: [<ffffffff81055237>] validate_chain+0x727/0xd23 [<ffffffff810560bc>] __lock_acquire+0x889/0x8fa [<ffffffff81056184>] lock_acquire+0x57/0x6d [<ffffffff813e6b69>] _raw_read_lock_bh+0x34/0x43 [<ffffffffa00200d4>] rxrpc_resend_time_expired+0x56/0x96 [af_rxrpc] [<ffffffff8103b6e6>] run_timer_softirq+0x1f3/0x2a5 [<ffffffff81036828>] __do_softirq+0xa2/0x13e [<ffffffff81002dcc>] call_softirq+0x1c/0x28 [<ffffffff810049f0>] do_softirq+0x38/0x80 [<ffffffff810361a2>] irq_exit+0x45/0x47 [<ffffffff81018fb3>] smp_apic_timer_interrupt+0x88/0x96 [<ffffffff81002893>] apic_timer_interrupt+0x13/0x20 [<ffffffff810011ac>] cpu_idle+0x4d/0x83 [<ffffffff813e06f3>] start_secondary+0x1bd/0x1c1 other info that might help us debug this: 1 lock held by swapper/0: #0: (&call->resend_timer){+.-...}, at: [<ffffffff8103b675>] run_timer_softirq+0x182/0x2a5 stack backtrace: Pid: 0, comm: swapper Not tainted 2.6.35-rc3-cachefs+ #115 Call Trace: <IRQ> [<ffffffff81054414>] print_circular_bug+0xae/0xbd [<ffffffff81055237>] validate_chain+0x727/0xd23 [<ffffffff810560bc>] __lock_acquire+0x889/0x8fa [<ffffffff810539a7>] ? mark_lock+0x42f/0x51f [<ffffffff81056184>] lock_acquire+0x57/0x6d [<ffffffffa00200d4>] ? rxrpc_resend_time_expired+0x56/0x96 [af_rxrpc] [<ffffffff813e6b69>] _raw_read_lock_bh+0x34/0x43 [<ffffffffa00200d4>] ? rxrpc_resend_time_expired+0x56/0x96 [af_rxrpc] [<ffffffffa00200d4>] rxrpc_resend_time_expired+0x56/0x96 [af_rxrpc] [<ffffffff8103b6e6>] run_timer_softirq+0x1f3/0x2a5 [<ffffffff8103b675>] ? run_timer_softirq+0x182/0x2a5 [<ffffffffa002007e>] ? rxrpc_resend_time_expired+0x0/0x96 [af_rxrpc] [<ffffffff810367ef>] ? __do_softirq+0x69/0x13e [<ffffffff81036828>] __do_softirq+0xa2/0x13e [<ffffffff81002dcc>] call_softirq+0x1c/0x28 [<ffffffff810049f0>] do_softirq+0x38/0x80 [<ffffffff810361a2>] irq_exit+0x45/0x47 [<ffffffff81018fb3>] smp_apic_timer_interrupt+0x88/0x96 [<ffffffff81002893>] apic_timer_interrupt+0x13/0x20 <EOI> [<ffffffff81049de1>] ? __atomic_notifier_call_chain+0x0/0x86 [<ffffffff8100955b>] ? mwait_idle+0x6e/0x78 [<ffffffff81009552>] ? mwait_idle+0x65/0x78 [<ffffffff810011ac>] cpu_idle+0x4d/0x83 [<ffffffff813e06f3>] start_secondary+0x1bd/0x1c1 Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
