Andiry's xHCI bus suspend patch introduced the possibly of a host controller replaying old commands on the command ring, if the host successfully restores the registers after a resume. After a resume from suspend, the xHCI driver must restore the registers, including the command ring pointer. I had suggested that Andiry set the command ring pointer to the current command ring dequeue pointer, so that the driver wouldn't have to zero the command ring. Unfortunately, setting the command ring pointer to the current dequeue pointer won't work because the register assumes the pointer is 64-byte aligned, and TRBs on the command ring are 16-byte aligned. The lower seven bits will always be masked off, leading to the written pointer being up to 3 TRBs behind the intended pointer. Here's a log excerpt. On init, the xHCI driver places a vendor-specific command on the command ring: [ 215.750958] xhci_hcd 0000:01:00.0: Vendor specific event TRB type = 48 [ 215.750960] xhci_hcd 0000:01:00.0: NEC firmware version 30.25 [ 215.750962] xhci_hcd 0000:01:00.0: Command ring deq = 0x3781e010 (DMA) When we resume, the command ring dequeue pointer to be written should have been 0x3781e010. Instead, it's 0x3781e000: [ 235.557846] xhci_hcd 0000:01:00.0: // Setting command ring address to 0x3781e001 [ 235.557848] xhci_hcd 0000:01:00.0: `MEM_WRITE_DWORD(3'b000, 64'hffffc900100bc038, 64'h3781e001, 4'hf); [ 235.557850] xhci_hcd 0000:01:00.0: `MEM_WRITE_DWORD(3'b000, 32'hffffc900100bc020, 32'h204, 4'hf); [ 235.557866] usb usb9: root hub lost power or was reset (I can't see the results of this bug because the xHCI restore always fails on this box, and the xHCI driver re-allocates everything.) The fix is to zero the command ring and put the software and hardware enqueue and dequeue pointer back to the beginning of the ring. We do this before the system suspends, to be paranoid and prevent the BIOS from starting the host without clearing the command ring pointer, which might cause the host to muck with stale memory. (The pointer isn't required to be in the suspend power well, but it could be.) The command ring pointer is set again after the host resumes.

More recent GCC caused the i8k driver to stop working, on Slackware compiler was upgraded from gcc-4.4.4 to gcc-4.5.1 after which it didn't work anymore, meaning the driver didn't load or gave total nonsensical output. As it turned out the asm(..) statement forgot to mention it modifies the *regs variable. Credits to Andi Kleen and Andreas Schwab for providing the fix.

Currently, addrconf_ifdown does not delete statically configured IPv6 addresses when the interface is brought down. The intent is that when the interface comes back up the address will be usable again. However, this doesn't actually work, because the system stops listening on the corresponding solicited-node multicast address, so the address cannot respond to neighbor solicitations and thus receive traffic. Also, the code notifies the rest of the system that the address is being deleted (e.g, RTM_DELADDR), even though it is not. Fix it so that none of this state is updated if the address is being kept on the interface. Tested: Added a statically configured IPv6 address to an interface, started ping, brought link down, brought link up again. When link came up ping kept on going and "ip -6 maddr" showed that the host was still subscribed to there Signed-off-by: Lorenzo Colitti <lorenzo@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Alexey Kuznetsov noticed a regression introduced by commit f1ecd5d9 ("Revert Backoff [v3]: Revert RTO on ICMP destination unreachable") The RTO and timer modification code added to tcp_v4_err() doesn't check sock_owned_by_user(), which if true means we don't have exclusive access to the socket and therefore cannot modify it's critical state. Just skip this new code block if sock_owned_by_user() is true and eliminate the now superfluous sock_owned_by_user() code block contained within.

Now with improved comma support. On parsing malformed X.25 facilities, decrementing the remaining length may cause it to underflow. Since the length is an unsigned integer, this will result in the loop continuing until the kernel crashes.

Currently the skb->protocol field is used to setup various offloading parameters on transmit for the correct protocol. However, if vlan offloading is disabled or otherwise not used, the protocol field will be ETH_P_8021Q, not the actual protocol. This will cause the offloading to be not performed correctly, even though the hardware is capable of looking inside vlan tags. Instead, look inside the header if necessary to determine the correct protocol type. To some extent this fixes a regression from 2.6.36 because it was previously not possible to disable vlan offloading and this error case was not exposed.
