xirc2ps_cs: Fix use after free bug in xirc2ps_detach

2023-03-19T10:42:02+00:00

In xirc2ps_probe, the local->tx_timeout_task was bounded with xirc2ps_tx_timeout_task. When timeout occurs, it will call xirc_tx_timeout->schedule_work to start the work. When we call xirc2ps_detach to remove the driver, there may be a sequence as follows: Stop responding to timeout tasks and complete scheduled tasks before cleanup in xirc2ps_detach, which will fix the problem.

net: ethernet: move from strlcpy with unused retval to strscpy

2022-08-31T21:11:26+00:00

Follow the advice of the below link and prefer 'strscpy' in this subsystem. Conversion is 1:1 because the return value is not used. Generated by a coccinelle script.

ethernet: use eth_hw_addr_set() in unmaintained drivers

2021-10-18T12:20:38+00:00

Commit 406f42fa0d3c ("net-next: When a bond have a massive amount of VLANs...") introduced a rbtree for faster Ethernet address look up. To maintain netdev->dev_addr in this tree we need to make all the writes to it got through appropriate helpers. Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

ethernet: constify references to netdev->dev_addr in drivers

2021-10-14T16:22:11+00:00

This big patch sprinkles const on local variables and function arguments which may refer to netdev->dev_addr. Commit 406f42fa0d3c ("net-next: When a bond have a massive amount of VLANs...") introduced a rbtree for faster Ethernet address look up. To maintain netdev->dev_addr in this tree we need to make all the writes to it got through appropriate helpers. Some of the changes here are not strictly required - const is sometimes cast off but pointer is not used for writing. It seems like it's still better to add the const in case the code changes later or relevant -W flags get enabled for the build. No functional changes.

dev_ioctl: split out ndo_eth_ioctl

2021-07-27T19:11:45+00:00

Most users of ndo_do_ioctl are ethernet drivers that implement the MII commands SIOCGMIIPHY/SIOCGMIIREG/SIOCSMIIREG, or hardware timestamping with SIOCSHWTSTAMP/SIOCGHWTSTAMP. Separate these from the few drivers that use ndo_do_ioctl to implement SIOCBOND, SIOCBR and SIOCWANDEV commands. This is a purely cosmetic change intended to help readers find their way through the implementation.

xircom: remove redundant error check on variable err

2021-04-07T21:48:32+00:00

The error check on err is always false as err is always 0 at the port_found label. The code is redundant and can be removed. Addresses-Coverity: ("Logically dead code") Signed-off-by: Colin Ian King Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

treewide: Use fallthrough pseudo-keyword

2020-08-23T22:36:59+00:00

Replace the existing /* fall through */ comments and its variants with the new pseudo-keyword macro fallthrough[1]. Also, remove unnecessary fall-through markings when it is the case.

xirc2ps_cs: remove dev null check from do_reset().

treewide: replace '---help---' in Kconfig files with 'help'

2020-06-13T16:57:21+00:00

Since commit 84af7a6194e4 ("checkpatch: kconfig: prefer 'help' over '---help---'"), the number of '---help---' has been gradually decreasing, but there are still more than 2400 instances. This commit finishes the conversion. While I touched the lines, I also fixed the indentation. There are a variety of indentation styles found. a) 4 spaces + '---help---' b) 7 spaces + '---help---' c) 8 spaces + '---help---' d) 1 space + 1 tab + '---help---' e) 1 tab + '---help---' (correct indentation) f) 1 tab + 1 space + '---help---' g) 1 tab + 2 spaces + '---help---' In order to convert all of them to 1 tab + 'help', I ran the following commend: $ find . -name 'Kconfig*' | xargs sed -i 's/^[[:space:]]*---help---/\thelp/' Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada
