2011-01-06netfilter: fix the race when initializing nf_ct_expect_hash_rndChangli Gao1-0/+2
Since nf_ct_expect_dst_hash() may be called without nf_conntrack_lock locked, nf_ct_expect_hash_rnd should be initialized in the atomic way. In this patch, we use nf_conntrack_hash_rnd instead of nf_ct_expect_hash_rnd. Signed-off-by: Changli Gao <xiaosuo@gmail.com> Acked-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2011-01-06af_unix: Avoid socket->sk NULL OOPS in stream connect security hooks.David S. Miller1-8/+7
unix_release() can asynchornously set socket->sk to NULL, and it does so without holding the unix_state_lock() on "other" during stream connects. However, the reverse mapping, sk->sk_socket, is only transitioned to NULL under the unix_state_lock(). Therefore make the security hooks follow the reverse mapping instead of the forward mapping.

2010-12-23taskstats: pad taskstats netlink response for aligment issues on ia64Jeff Mahoney1-1/+2
The taskstats structure is internally aligned on 8 byte boundaries but the layout of the aggregrate reply, with two NLA headers and the pid (each 4 bytes), actually force the entire structure to be unaligned. This causes the kernel to issue unaligned access warnings on some architectures like ia64. Unfortunately, some software out there doesn't properly unroll the NLA packet and assumes that the start of the taskstats structure will always be 20 bytes from the start of the netlink payload. Aligning the start of the taskstats structure breaks this software, which we don't want. So, for now the alignment only happens on architectures that require it and those users will have to update to fixed versions of those packages. Space is reserved in the packet only when needed. This ifdef should be removed in several years e.g. 2012 once we can be confident that fixed versions are installed on most systems. We add the padding before the aggregate since the aggregate is already a defined type. Commit 85893120 ("delayacct: align to 8 byte boundary on 64-bit systems") previously addressed the alignment issues by padding out the pid field. This was supposed to be a compatible change but the circumstances described above mean that it wasn't. This patch backs out that change, since it was a hack, and introduces a new NULL attribute type to provide the padding. Padding the response with 4 bytes avoids allocating an aligned taskstats structure and copying it back. Since the structure weighs in at 328 bytes, it's too big to do it on the stack.

2010-12-23include/linux/unaligned: pack the whole struct rather than just the fieldWill Newton1-3/+3
The current packed struct implementation of unaligned access adds the packed attribute only to the field within the unaligned struct rather than to the struct as a whole. This is not sufficient to enforce proper behaviour on architectures with a default struct alignment of more than one byte. For example, the current implementation of __get_unaligned_cpu16 when compiled for arm with gcc -O1 -mstructure-size-boundary=32 assumes the struct is on a 4 byte boundary so performs the load of the 16bit packed field as if it were on a 4 byte boundary: __get_unaligned_cpu16: ldrh r0, [r0, #0] bx lr Moving the packed attribute to the struct rather than the field causes the proper unaligned access code to be generated: __get_unaligned_cpu16: ldrb r3, [r0, #0] @ zero_extendqisi2 ldrb r0, [r0, #1] @ zero_extendqisi2 orr r0, r3, r0, asl #8 bx lr Signed-off-by: Will Newton <will.newton@gmail.com> Cc: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2010-12-23Bluetooth: Fix __hci_request synchronization for hci_open_devJohan Hedberg1-1/+2
The initialization function used by hci_open_dev (hci_init_req) sends many different HCI commands. The __hci_request function should only return when all of these commands have completed (or a timeout occurs). Several of these commands cause hci_req_complete to be called which causes __hci_request to return prematurely. This patch fixes the issue by adding a new hdev->req_last_cmd variable which is set during the initialization procedure. The hci_req_complete function will no longer mark the request as complete until the command matching hdev->req_last_cmd completes.

2010-12-21TCP: increase default initial receive window.Nandita Dukkipati1-0/+3
This patch changes the default initial receive window to 10 mss (defined constant). The default window is limited to the maximum of 10*1460 and 2*mss (when mss > 1460). draft-ietf-tcpm-initcwnd-00 is a proposal to the IETF that recommends increasing TCP's initial congestion window to 10 mss or about 15KB. Leading up to this proposal were several large-scale live Internet experiments with an initial congestion window of 10 mss (IW10), where we showed that the average latency of HTTP responses improved by approximately 10%. This was accompanied by a slight increase in retransmission rate (0.5%), most of which is coming from applications opening multiple simultaneous connections. To understand the extreme worst case scenarios, and fairness issues (IW10 versus IW3), we further conducted controlled testbed experiments. We came away finding minimal negative impact even under low link bandwidths (dial-ups) and small buffers. These results are extremely encouraging to adopting IW10. However, an initial congestion window of 10 mss is useless unless a TCP receiver advertises an initial receive window of at least 10 mss. Fortunately, in the large-scale Internet experiments we found that most widely used operating systems advertised large initial receive windows of 64KB, allowing us to experiment with a wide range of initial congestion windows. Linux systems were among the few exceptions that advertised a small receive window of 6KB. The purpose of this patch is to fix this shortcoming. References: 1.

The Mesh Control header only includes 0, 1 or 2 addresses. If there is one address, it should be interpreted as Address 4. If there are 2, they are interpreted as Addresses 5 and 6 (Address 4 being the 4th address in the 802.11 header). The address extension used to hold up to 3 addresses instead of the current 2. I'm not sure which draft version changed this, but it is very unlikely that it will change again given the state of the approval process of this draft. See section 7.1.3.6.3 in current draft (8.0). Also, note that the extra address that I'm removing was not being used, so this change has no effect on over-the-air frame formats.

2010-12-20mac80211/rt2x00: add ieee80211_tx_status_ni()Johannes Stezenbach1-4/+24
All rt2x00 drivers except rt2800pci call ieee80211_tx_status() from a workqueue, which causes "NOHZ: local_softirq_pending 08" messages. To fix it, add ieee80211_tx_status_ni() similar to ieee80211_rx_ni() which can be called from process context, and call it from rt2x00lib_txdone(). For the rt2800pci special case a driver flag is introduced. https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=24892 Signed-off-by: Johannes Stezenbach <js@sig21.net> Signed-off-by: John W.

2010-12-20net_sched: always clone skbsChangli Gao1-5/+1
Pawel reported a panic related to handling shared skbs in ixgbe incorrectly. So we need to revert my previous patch to work around this bug. Instead of reverting the patch completely, I just revert the essential lines, so we can add the previous optimization back more easily in future. commit 3511c9132f8b1e1b5634e41a3331c44b0c13be70 Author: Changli Gao <xiaosuo@gmail.com> Date: Sat Oct 16 13:04:08 2010 +0000 net_sched: remove the unused parameter of qdisc_create_dflt() Reported-by: Pawel Staszewski <pstaszewski@itcare.pl> Signed-off-by: Changli Gao <xiaosuo@gmail.com> Acked-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2010-12-20clarify a usage constraint for cnt32_to_63()Nicolas Pitre1-1/+19
The cnt32_to_63 algorithm relies on proper counter data evaluation ordering to work properly. This was missing from the provided documentation. Let's augment the documentation with the missing usage constraint and fix the only instance that got it wrong.
