It probbaly makes no sense to support arbitrary network devices
for lapbether.

[ Upstream commit 531705a765493655472c993627106e19f7e5a6d2 ]

When following tests are performed, it will cause dev reference counting
leakage.
a)ip link add bond2 type bond mode balance-rr
b)ip link set bond2 up
c)ifenslave -f bond2 rose1
d)ip link del bond2

When new bond device is created, the default type of the bond device is
ether. And the bond device is up, lapbeth_device_event() receives the
message and creates a new lapbeth device. In this case, the reference
count value of dev is hold once. But after "ifenslave -f bond2 rose1"
command is executed, the type of the bond device is changed to rose. When
the bond device is unregistered, lapbeth_device_event() will not put the
dev reference count.

[ Upstream commit 5acd0cfbfbb5a688da1bfb1a2152b0c855115a35 ]

There are two "netif_running" checks in this driver. One is in
"lapbeth_xmit" and the other is in "lapbeth_rcv". They serve to make
sure that the LAPB APIs called in these functions are called before
"lapb_unregister" is called by the "ndo_stop" function.

However, these "netif_running" checks are unreliable, because it's
possible that immediately after "netif_running" returns true, "ndo_stop"
is called (which causes "lapb_unregister" to be called).

This patch adds locking to make sure "lapbeth_xmit" and "lapbeth_rcv" can
reliably check and ensure the netif is running while doing their work.

<content type='text'>
commit f7d9d4854519fdf4d45c70a4d953438cd88e7e58 upstream.

For the devices in this driver, the default qdisc is "noqueue",
because their "tx_queue_len" is 0.

In function "__dev_queue_xmit" in "net/core/dev.c", devices with the
"noqueue" qdisc are specially handled. Packets are transmitted without
being queued after a "dev-&gt;flags &amp; IFF_UP" check. However, it's possible
that even if this check succeeds, "ops-&gt;ndo_stop" may still have already
been called. This is because in "__dev_close_many", "ops-&gt;ndo_stop" is
called before clearing the "IFF_UP" flag.

If we call "netif_stop_queue" in "ops-&gt;ndo_stop", then it's possible in
"__dev_queue_xmit", it sees the "IFF_UP" flag is present, and then it
checks "netif_xmit_stopped" and finds that the queue is already stopped.
In this case, it will complain that:
"Virtual device ... asks to queue packet!"

To prevent "__dev_queue_xmit" from generating this complaint, we should
not call "netif_stop_queue" in "ops-&gt;ndo_stop".

We also don't need to call "netif_start_queue" in "ops-&gt;ndo_open",
because after a netdev is allocated and registered, the
"__QUEUE_STATE_DRV_XOFF" flag is initially not set, so there is no need
to call "netif_start_queue" to clear it.

<title>drivers/net/wan/lapbether: Make skb-&gt;protocol consistent with the header</title>

<content type='text'>
This driver is a virtual driver stacked on top of Ethernet interfaces.

When this driver transmits data on the Ethernet device, the skb-&gt;protocol
setting is inconsistent with the Ethernet header prepended to the skb.

This causes a user listening on the Ethernet interface with an AF_PACKET
socket, to see different sll_protocol values for incoming and outgoing
frames, because incoming frames would have this value set by parsing the
Ethernet header.

This patch changes the skb-&gt;protocol value for outgoing Ethernet frames,
making it consistent with the Ethernet header prepended. This makes a
user listening on the Ethernet device with an AF_PACKET socket, to see
the same sll_protocol value for incoming and outgoing frames.

<title>drivers/net/wan/lapbether: Set network_header before transmitting</title>

<id>urn:sha1:91244d108441013b7367b3b4dcc6869998676473</id>
<content type='text'>
Set the skb's network_header before it is passed to the underlying
Ethernet device for transmission.

This patch fixes the following issue:

When we use this driver with AF_PACKET sockets, there would be error
messages of:
   protocol 0805 is buggy, dev (Ethernet interface name)
printed in the system "dmesg" log.

This is because skbs passed down to the Ethernet device for transmission
don't have their network_header properly set, and the dev_queue_xmit_nit
function in net/core/dev.c complains about this.

Reason of setting the network_header to this place (at the end of the
Ethernet header, and at the beginning of the Ethernet payload):

Because when this driver receives an skb from the Ethernet device, the
network_header is also set at this place.

<title>drivers/net/wan/lapbether: Added needed_headroom and a skb-&gt;len check</title>

<id>urn:sha1:c7ca03c216acb14466a713fedf1b9f2c24994ef2</id>
<content type='text'>
1. Added a skb-&gt;len check

This driver expects upper layers to include a pseudo header of 1 byte
when passing down a skb for transmission. This driver will read this
1-byte header. This patch added a skb-&gt;len check before reading the
header to make sure the header exists.

2. Changed to use needed_headroom instead of hard_header_len to request
necessary headroom to be allocated

In net/packet/af_packet.c, the function packet_snd first reserves a
headroom of length (dev-&gt;hard_header_len + dev-&gt;needed_headroom).
Then if the socket is a SOCK_DGRAM socket, it calls dev_hard_header,
which calls dev-&gt;header_ops-&gt;create, to create the link layer header.
If the socket is a SOCK_RAW socket, it "un-reserves" a headroom of
length (dev-&gt;hard_header_len), and assumes the user to provide the
appropriate link layer header.

So according to the logic of af_packet.c, dev-&gt;hard_header_len should
be the length of the header that would be created by
dev-&gt;header_ops-&gt;create.

However, this driver doesn't provide dev-&gt;header_ops, so logically
dev-&gt;hard_header_len should be 0.

So we should use dev-&gt;needed_headroom instead of dev-&gt;hard_header_len
to request necessary headroom to be allocated.

This change fixes kernel panic when this driver is used with AF_PACKET
SOCK_RAW sockets.

Call stack when panic:
