      ipv6: Set mcast_hops to IPV6_DEFAULT_MCASTHOPS when -1 was given. · 2a38e6d5
      Li Wei authored
      We need to set np->mcast_hops to it's default value at this moment
      otherwise when we use it and found it's value is -1, the logic to
      get default hop limit doesn't take multicast into account and will
      return wrong hop limit(IPV6_DEFAULT_HOPLIMIT) which is for unicast.

      mac80211: fix race between the AGG SM and the Tx data path · 2a1e0fd1
      Emmanuel Grumbach authored
      When a packet is supposed to sent be as an a-MPDU, mac80211 sets
      IEEE80211_TX_CTL_AMPDU to let the driver know. On the other
      hand, mac80211 configures the driver for aggregration with the
      ampdu_action callback.
      There is race between these two mechanisms since the following
      scenario can occur when the BA agreement is torn down:
      
      Tx softIRQ	 			drv configuration
      ==========				=================
      
      check OPERATIONAL bit
      Set the TX_CTL_AMPDU bit in the packet
      
      					clear OPERATIONAL bit
      					stop Tx AGG
      Pass Tx packet to the driver.
      
      In that case the driver would get a packet with TX_CTL_AMPDU set
      although it has already been notified that the BA session has been
      torn down.
      
      To fix this, we need to synchronize all the Qdisc activity after we
      cleared the OPERATIONAL bit. After that step, all the following
      packets will be buffered until the driver reports it is ready to get
      new packets for this RA / TID. This buffering allows not to run into
      another race that would send packets with TX_CTL_AMPDU unset while
      the driver hasn't been requested to tear down the BA session yet.
      
      This race occurs in practice and iwlwifi complains with a WARN_ON
      when it happens.

      mac80211: fix race condition caused by late addBA response · d305a655
      Nikolay Martynov authored
      If addBA responses comes in just after addba_resp_timer has
      expired mac80211 will still accept it and try to open the
      aggregation session. This causes drivers to be confused and
      in some cases even crash.
      
      This patch fixes the race condition and makes sure that if
      addba_resp_timer has expired addBA response is not longer
      accepted and we do not try to open half-closed session.

      Nikolay noticed (by code review) that mac80211 can
      attempt to stop an aggregation session while it is
      already being stopped. So to fix it, check whether
      stop is already being done and bail out if so.
      
      Also move setting the STOPPING state into the lock
      so things are properly atomic.

      ehea: Reduce memory usage in buffer pools · aa9084a0
      Anton Blanchard authored
      Now that we enable multiqueue by default the ehea driver is using
      quite a lot of memory for its buffer pools. With 4 queues we
      consume 64MB in the jumbo packet ring, 16MB in the medium packet
      ring and 16MB in the tiny packet ring.
      
      We should only fill the jumbo ring once the MTU is increased but
      for now halve it's size so it consumes 32MB. Also reduce the tiny
      packet ring, with 4 queues we had 16k entries which is overkill.

      qlge: fix size of external list for TX address descriptors · 78242853
      Thadeu Lima de Souza Cascardo authored
      When transmiting a fragmented skb, qlge fills a descriptor with the
      fragment addresses, after DMA-mapping them. If there are more than eight
      fragments, it will use the eighth descriptor as a pointer to an external
      list. After mapping this external list, called OAL to a structure
      containing more descriptors, it fills it with the extra fragments.
      
      However, considering that systems with pages larger than 8KiB would have
      less than 8 fragments, which was true before commit a715dea3, it
      defined a macro for the OAL size as 0 in those cases.
      
      Now, if a skb with more than 8 fragments (counting skb->data as one
      fragment), this would start overwriting the list of addresses already
      mapped and would make the driver fail to properly unmap the right
      addresses on architectures with pages larger than 8KiB.
      
      Besides that, the list of mappings was one size too small, since it must
      have a mapping for the maxinum number of skb fragments plus one for
      skb->data and another for the OAL. So, even on architectures with page
      sizes 4KiB and 8KiB, a skb with the maximum number of fragments would
      make the driver overwrite its counter for the number of mappings, which,
      again, would make it fail to unmap the mapped DMA addresses.
