[GIT] Networking

From: David Miller
Date: Tue May 25 2010 - 19:59:41 EST



1) dev_get_valid_name can create conditions wherein it becomes impossible
to rename a device, fixed by Daniel Lezcano.

2) CAIF protocol bug fixes from Sjur Braendeland:

a) wait_ev*_timeout return value accidently stored in 'int' instead
of 'long'
b) By-hand list implementation buggy, use standard kernel lists.
c) Memory allocation failures not handled correctly.
d) poll() erroneously returns POLLHUP when connecting
e) missing spin_unlock in cfmuxl_remove_uplayer()
f) receive needs to set MSG_TRUNC when user buf size is insufficient

3) Cleanup accidently introduced uninitialized variable in pppoe_flush_dev().
Fix from Dan Carpenter.

4) ISDN fixes from Tilman Schmidt.
a) ->reset_ctr() op is marked optional, but code doesn't actually
check for NULL
b) Dummy stubs for ->reset_ctr() and ->load_firmware() are erroneous
and cause hangs, delete.

5) Blackfin SIR IRDA device is not harmed by the UART unit bug, so don't
adjust clock values using the bug workaround adjustment. From
Graf Yang.

6) Networking control group is severely limited because it tries to sample
the task control group at the time of packet transmission. This really
can't be done reliably, especially when packets are sent async from
another context.

Fix by storing the cgroupid in the socket, sampling it at I/O call
points (sendmsg, recvmsg, splice_read, sendpage), then use this
value when we classify via the skb->sk socket.

Handle special cases like TUN (which call netif_rx() to inject packets)
directly.

All of this work done by Herbert Xu.

7) DCCP stores error codes in a u8, which is insufficient for MIPS which
needs a u16, fix from Yoichi Yuasa.

8) BE2NET bug fixes from Sarveshwar Bandi:
a) Must PHY reset after FW init.
b) FW upgrade can take a while, use completions instead of polling
with softirqs disabled.

9) proc_dointvec change that came in via the networking tree for port
range specifications introduced a regression for procfs files, accidently
disallowing write("1\n"). Fix from J. R. Okajima.

10) Use after free in Phone socket close, fix from Rémi Denis-Courmont.

11) Memory leak in macvlan, from Jiri Pirko.

12) Initial GRO fraglist element's ->gso_size can be bogus, if packet
hits device not TSO capable but fraglist capable. Fix from Herbert
Xu.

13) Add support for some new IXGBE device IDs.

14) Memory leak and alloc failure fixes from Denis Kirjaniv.
a) sh_mdio_release() leaks memory
b) check for kzalloc() return value in ieee802154.
c) bfin_mac leaks miibus->irq memory

15) sja1000.c missing spin_lock_init() on priv->cmdreg_lock, fix from
Oliver Hartkopp.

16) The batched dequeuing of input_pkt_queue introduced this merge window
added some problems. Inaccurate packet counting can occur which defeats
the schemes that RFS uses to prevent out-of-order packet processing when
we want to modify the the target RX cpu for a flow.

Fix from Tom Herbert.

17) Several wireless fixes via John Linville and the wireless crew.

18) ENIC bug fixes from Scott Feldman.
a) Fix UUID fmt'ing array type.
b) port-profile assosciation happens before we have a MAC address
assigned, use a random one instead of garbage

19) qdisc_notify() can OOPS, because tc_fill_qdisc() can accidently be
called for a builtin qdisc. Fix from Eric Dumazet.

20) do_setlink() had some error handling bugs introduced this cycle
(failure to initialize 'err' in some error paths), fix from David
Howells.

21) ethoc_probe can deref a NULL pointer, fix from Thomas Chou.


22) netif_vdbg() definition is garbage when VERBOSE_DEBUG is defined.
Fix from Ben Hutchings.

23) Netfilter fixes via Patrick McHardy:
a) nf_ct_sip doesn't handle nonlinear packets, but it needs to
b) __nf_conntrack_confirm() races with nf_ct_get_next_corpse()

24) Fix race in i2400m_rx_edata() resulting in an OOPS on i2400m->rx_roq,
from Inaky Perez-Gonzalez.

Please pull, thanks a lot!
