b43: fix frequency reported on G-PHY with /new/ firmware

2014-07-09T17:51:20+00:00

commit 2fc68eb122c7ea6cd5be1fe7d6650c0beb2f4f40 upstream. Support for firmware rev 508+ was added years ago, but we never noticed it reports channel in a different way for G-PHY devices. Instead of offset from 2400 MHz it simply passes channel id (AKA hw_value). So far it was (most probably) affecting monitor mode users only, but the following recent commit made it noticeable for quite everybody: commit 3afc2167f60a327a2c1e1e2600ef209a3c2b75b7 Author: Emmanuel Grumbach Date: Tue Mar 4 16:50:13 2014 +0200 cfg80211/mac80211: ignore signal if the frame was heard on wrong channel Reported-by: Aaro Koskinen Signed-off-by: Rafał Miłecki Tested-by: Aaro Koskinen Signed-off-by: John W.

rt2x00: fix rfkill regression on rt2500pci

2014-07-09T17:51:20+00:00

commit 616a8394b5df8c88f4dd416f4527439a4e365034 upstream. As reported by Niels, starting rfkill polling during device probe (commit e2bc7c5, generally sane change) broke rfkill on rt2500pci device. I considered that bug as some initalization issue, which should be fixed on rt2500pci specific code. But after several attempts (see bug report for details) we fail to find working solution. Hence I decided to revert to old behaviour on rt2500pci to fix regression. Additionally patch also unregister rfkill on device remove instead of ifconfig down, what was another issue introduced by bad commit. Bug report: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=73821 Fixes: e2bc7c5f3cb8 ("rt2x00: Fix rfkill_polling register function.")

2014-07-09T17:51:20+00:00

can: peak_pci: prevent use after free at netdev removal

2014-07-01T03:01:30+00:00

commit 0b5a958cf4df3a5cd578b861471e62138f55c85e upstream. As remarked by Christopher R. Baker in his post at http://marc.info/?l=linux-can&m=139707295706465&w=2 there's a possibility for an use after free condition at device removal. This simplified patch introduces an additional variable to prevent the issue. Thanks for catching this. Reported-by: Christopher R.

team: fix mtu setting

2014-06-26T19:10:28+00:00

[ Upstream commit 9d0d68faea6962d62dd501cd6e71ce5cc8ed262b ] Now it is not possible to set mtu to team device which has a port enslaved to it. The reason is that when team_change_mtu() calls dev_set_mtu() for port device, notificator for NETDEV_PRECHANGEMTU event is called and team_device_event() returns NOTIFY_BAD forbidding the change. So fix this by returning NOTIFY_DONE here in case team is changing mtu in team_change_mtu().

xen-netfront: reduce gso_max_size to account for max TCP header

2014-06-07T23:02:15+00:00

commit 9ecd1a75d977e2e8c48139c7d3efed183f898d94 upstream. The maximum packet including header that can be handled by netfront / netback wire format is 65535. Reduce gso_max_size accordingly. Drop skb and print warning when skb->len > 65535. This can 1) save the effort to send malformed packet to netback, 2) help spotting misconfiguration of netfront in the future.
