2008-08-30pkt_sched: Fix locking of qdisc_root with qdisc_root_sleeping_lock()Jarek Poplawski7-11/+11
Use qdisc_root_sleeping_lock() instead of qdisc_root_lock() where appropriate. The only difference is while dev is deactivated, when currently we can use a sleeping qdisc with the lock of noop_qdisc. This shouldn't be dangerous since after deactivation root lock could be used only by gen_estimator code, but looks wrong anyway.

2008-08-28sctp: correct bounds check in sctp_setsockopt_auth_keyVlad Yasevich1-1/+1
The bonds check to prevent buffer overlflow was not exactly right. It still allowed overflow of up to 8 bytes which is sizeof(struct sctp_authkey). Since optlen is already checked against the size of that struct, we are guaranteed not to cause interger overflow either.

2008-08-27forcedeth: fix checksum flagAyaz Abdulla1-2/+2
Fix the checksum feature advertised in device flags. The hardware support TCP/UDP over IPv4 and TCP/UDP over IPv6 (without IPv6 extension headers). However, the kernel feature flags do not distinguish IPv6 with/without extension headers. Therefore, the driver needs to use NETIF_F_IP_CSUM instead of NETIF_F_HW_CSUM since the latter includes all IPv6 packets. A future patch can be created to check for extension headers and perform software checksum calculation.

2008-08-27ibmveth: fix bad UDP checksumsSantiago Leon1-2/+3
This patch fixes a ibmveth bug where bad UDP checksums are being transmitted when checksum offloading is enabled. The hypervisor does checksum offloading only on TCP packets, so ibmveth calls skb_checksum_help() for any other protocol. The bug happens because the packet is being modified after the DMA map, so we would need a memory barrier before making the hypervisor call. Reordering the code so that the DMA map happens after skb_checksum_help() has the additional advantage of fixing a DMA map leak if skb_checksum_help() where to fail.

2008-08-27mac80211: don't send empty extended rates IEJan-Espen Pettersen1-1/+1
The association request includes a list of supported data rates. 802.11b: 4 supported rates. 802.11g: 12 (8 + 4) supported rates. 802.11a: 8 supported rates. The rates tag of the assoc request has room for only 8 rates. In case of 802.11g an extended rate tag is appended. However in net/wireless/mlme.c an extended (empty) rate tag is also appended if the number of rates is exact 8. This empty (length=0) extended rates tag causes some APs to deny association with code 18 (unsupported rates). These APs include my ZyXEL G-570U, and according to Tomas Winkler som Cisco APs. 'If count == 8' has been used to check for the need for an extended rates tag. But count would also be equal to 8 if the for loop exited because of no more supported rates. Therefore a check for count being less than rates_len would seem more correct.

2008-08-27mac80211: Fix debugfs file add/del for netdevJouni Malinen2-12/+18
Previous version was using incorrect union structures for non-AP interfaces when adding and removing max_ratectrl_rateidx and force_unicast_rateidx entries. Depending on the vif type, this ended up in corrupting debugfs entries since the dentries inside different union structures ended up going being on top of eachother.. As the end result, debugfs files were being left behind with references to freed data (instant kernel oops on access) and directories were not removed properly when unloading mac80211 drivers. This patch fixes those issues by using only a single union structure based on the vif type. Signed-off-by: Jouni Malinen <jouni.malinen@atheros.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

2008-08-27mac80211: Use IWEVASSOCREQIE instead of IWEVCUSTOMJouni Malinen1-39/+9
The previous code was using IWEVCUSTOM to report IEs from AssocReq and AssocResp frames into user space. This can easily hit the 256 byte limit (IW_CUSTOM_MAX) with APs that include number of vendor IEs in AssocResp. This results in the event message not being sent and dmesg showing "wlan0 (WE) : Wireless Event too big (366)" type of errors. Convert mac80211 to use IWEVASSOCREQIE/IWEVASSOCRESPIE to avoid the issue of being unable to send association IEs as wireless events. These newer event types use binary encoding and larger maximum size (IW_GENERIC_IE_MAX = 1024), so the likelyhood of not being able to send the IEs is much smaller than with IWEVCUSTOM. As an extra benefit, the code is also quite a bit simpler since there is no need to allocate an extra buffer for hex encoding.
