2010-10-08Phonet: cleanup pipe enable socket optionRémi Denis-Courmont
The current code works like this: int garbage, status; socklen_t len = sizeof(status); /* enable pipe */ setsockopt(fd, SOL_PNPIPE, PNPIPE_ENABLE, &garbage, sizeof(garbage)); /* disable pipe */ setsockopt(fd, SOL_PNPIPE, PNPIPE_DISABLE, &garbage, sizeof(garbage)); /* get status */ getsockopt(fd, SOL_PNPIPE, PNPIPE_INQ, &status, &len); ...which does not follow the usual socket option pattern. This patch merges all three "options" into a single gettable&settable option, before Linux 2.6.37 gets out: int status; socklen_t len = sizeof(status); /* enable pipe */ status = 1; setsockopt(fd, SOL_PNPIPE, PNPIPE_ENABLE, &status, sizeof(status)); /* disable pipe */ status = 0; setsockopt(fd, SOL_PNPIPE, PNPIPE_ENABLE, &status, sizeof(status)); /* get status */ getsockopt(fd, SOL_PNPIPE, PNPIPE_ENABLE, &status, &len); This also fixes the error code from EFAULT to ENOTCONN.

2010-10-08ipv4: Remove leftover rcu_read_unlock calls from __mkroute_output()Dimitris Michailidis
Commit "fib: RCU conversion of fib_lookup()" removed rcu_read_lock() from __mkroute_output but left a couple of calls to rcu_read_unlock() in there. This causes lockdep to complain that the rcu_read_unlock() call in __ip_route_output_key causes a lock inbalance and quickly crashes the kernel. The below fixes this for me.

2010-10-06net: netif_set_real_num_rx_queues may cap num_rx_queues at init timeJohn Fastabend
Do not set num_rx_queues in netif_set_real_num_rx_queues() some drivers will increase the real_num_rx_queues later due to a feature changes or available interrupts increasing. By setting num_rx_queues here this ends up creating a cap on the number of rx queues available. For example the ixgbe driver sets the max number of queues it intends to use ever then sets the current number in use with the netif_set_num_{rx|tx}_queues calls. With the current implementation the number of rx queues gets limited so when a feature such as DCB or FCoE is enabled the queues are no longer available. kobjects will only be allocated for real_num_rx_queues so the waste in memory is minimal.

2010-10-06neigh: RCU conversion of struct neighbourEric Dumazet
This is the second step for neighbour RCU conversion. (first was commit d6bf7817 : RCU conversion of neigh hash table) neigh_lookup() becomes lockless, but still take a reference on found neighbour. (no more read_lock()/read_unlock() on tbl->lock) struct neighbour gets an additional rcu_head field and is freed after an RCU grace period. Future work would need to eventually not take a reference on neighbour for temporary dst (DST_NOCACHE), but this would need dst->_neighbour to use a noref bit like we did for skb->_dst.

When multiple interfaces are actively trying to associate with the same BSS, they may both find that the BSS isn't there and then try to unlink it. This can cause errors since the unlinking code can't currently deal with items that have already been unlinked. Normally this doesn't happen as most people don't try to use multiple station interfaces that associate at the same time too. Fix this by using the list entry as a flag to see if the item is still on a list.

We do not canceling such requests when calling ieee80211_scan_cancel(), because of SCAN_SW_SCANNING bit check just before the call. So fix that problem. Another problem, which commit 85f72bc839705294b32b6c16b491c0422f0a71b3 tries to solve, is we can not cancel HW scan. Hence patch make ieee80211_scan_cancel() ignore HW scan (see code comments).

2010-10-06mac80211: delete AddBA response timerJohannes Berg
We never delete the addBA response timer, which is typically fine, but if the station it belongs to is deleted very quickly after starting the BA session, before the peer had a chance to reply, the timer may fire after the station struct has been freed already. Therefore, we need to delete the timer in a suitable spot -- best when the session is being stopped (which will happen even then) in which case the delete will be a no-op most of the time.

2010-10-05mac80211: distinct between max rates and the number of rates the hw can reportHelmut Schaa
Some drivers cannot handle multiple retry rates specified by the rc algorithm but instead use their own retry table (for example rt2800). However, if such a device registers itself with a max_rates value of 1 the rc algorithm cannot make use of the extended information the device can provide about retried rates. On the other hand, if a device registers itself with a max_rates value > 1 the rc algorithm assumes that the device can handle multi rate retries. Fix this issue by introducing another hw parameter max_report_rates that can be set to a different value then max_rates to indicate if a device is capable of reporting more rates then specified in max_rates.

2010-10-05mac80211: Add validity check for beacon_crc valueJuuso Oikarinen
On association to an AP, after receiving beacons, the beacon_crc value is set. The beacon_crc value is not reset in disassociation, but the BSS data may be expired at a later point. When associating again, it's possible that a beacon for the AP is not received, resulting in the beacon_ies to remain NULL. After association, further beacons will not update the beacon data, as the crc value of the beacon has not changed, and the beacon_crc still holds a value matching the beacon. The beacon_ies will remain forever null. One of the results of this is that WLAN power save cannot be entered, the STA will remain foreven in active mode. Fix this by adding a validation flag for the beacon_crc, which is cleared on association.

2010-10-05mac80211: perform scan cancel in hw reset workStanislaw Gruszka
Move ieee80211_scan_cancel() and all other related code to ieee80211_restart_work() as ieee80211_restart_hw() is intended to be callable from any context. Fix a bug that RTNL lock is not taken during ieee80211_cancel_scan(). Take local->mtx before WARN(test_bit(SCAN_HW_SCANNING, &local->scanning) to prevent the race condition with __ieee80211_start_scan() described here: http://marc.info/?l=linux-wireless&m=128516716810537&w=2 Signed-off-by: Stanislaw Gruszka <sgruszka@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: John W.
