* net: Unmap fragment page once iterator is doneWedson Almeida Filho2013-06-241-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Callers of skb_seq_read() are currently forced to call skb_abort_seq_read() even when consuming all the data because the last call to skb_seq_read (the one that returns 0 to indicate the end) fails to unmap the last fragment page. With this patch callers will be allowed to traverse the SKB data by calling skb_prepare_seq_read() once and repeatedly calling skb_seq_read() as originally intended (and documented in the original commit 677e90eda), that is, only call skb_abort_seq_read() if the sequential read is actually aborted.

The xen-netback conflict was overlapping changes involving the handling of the notify list in xen_netbk_rx_action(). Batman conflict resolution provided by Antonio Quartulli, basically keep everything in both conflict hunks. The nl80211 conflict is a little more involved. In 'net' we added a dynamic memory allocation to nl80211_dump_wiphy() to fix a race that Linus reported. Meanwhile in 'net-next' the handlers were converted to use pre and post doit handlers which use a flag to determine whether to hold the RTNL mutex around the operation. However, the dump handlers to not use this logic. Instead they have to explicitly do the locking. There were apparent bugs in the conversion of nl80211_dump_wiphy() in that we were not dropping the RTNL mutex in all the return paths, and it seems we very much should be doing so. So I fixed that whilst handling the overlapping changes. To simplify the initial returns, I take the RTNL mutex after we try to allocate 'tb'. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
| * batman-adv: Don't handle address updates when bla is disabledSimon Wunderlich2013-06-101-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The bridge loop avoidance has a hook to handle address updates of the originator. These should not be handled when bridge loop avoidance is disabled - it might send some bridge loop avoidance packets which should not appear if bla is disabled.

| * batman-adv: forward late OGMs from best next hopSimon Wunderlich2013-06-101-31/+55
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When a packet is received from another node first and later from the best next hop, this packet is dropped. However the first OGM was sent with the BATADV_NOT_BEST_NEXT_HOP flag and thus dropped by neighbors. The late OGM from the best neighbor is then dropped because it is a duplicate. If this situation happens constantly, a node might end up not forwarding the "valid" OGMs anymore, and nodes behind will starve from not getting valid OGMs. Fix this by refining the duplicate checking behaviour: The actions should depend on whether it was a duplicate for a neighbor only or for the originator. OGMs which are not duplicates for a specific neighbor will now be considered in batadv_iv_ogm_forward(), but only actually forwarded for the best next hop. Therefore, late OGMs from the best next hop are forwarded now and not dropped as duplicates anymore.

| * batman-adv: wait for rtnl in batadv_store_mesh_iface instead of failing if ↵Matthias Schiffer2013-06-101-4/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | it is taken The rtnl_lock in batadv_store_mesh_iface has been converted to a rtnl_trylock some time ago to avoid a possible deadlock between rtnl and s_active on removal of the sysfs nodes. The behaviour introduced by that was quite confusing as it could lead to the sysfs store to fail, making batman-adv setup scripts unreliable. As recently the sysfs removal was postponed to a worker not running with the rtnl taken, the deadlock can't occur any more and it is safe to change the trylock back to a lock to make the sysfs store reliable again.

* | batman-adv: Allow to use rntl_link for device creation/deletionSven Eckelmann2013-03-274-0/+33
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The sysfs configuration interface of batman-adv to add/remove soft-interfaces is not deadlock free and doesn't follow the currently common way to create new virtual interfaces. An additional interface though rtnl_link is introduced which provides easy device creation/deletion with tools like "ip": $ ip link add dev bat0 type batadv $ ip link del dev bat0 Signed-off-by: Sven Eckelmann <sven@narfation.org> Signed-off-by: Marek Lindner <lindner_marek@yahoo.de> Signed-off-by: Antonio Quartulli <ordex@autistici.org>

* | batman-adv: Don't always delete softif when last slave was removedSven Eckelmann2013-03-273-6/+21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | batman-adv has an unusual way to manage softinterfaces. These will be created automatically when a user writes to the batman-adv/mesh_iface file in sysfs and removed when no slave device exists anymore. This behaviour cannot be changed without breaking compatibility with existing code. Instead other interfaces should be able to slightly reduce this behaviour and provide a more common reaction to a removal of a slave interface.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The initialization of an net_device object should be done in the init/constructor function and not from the outside after the register_netdevice was done to avoid race conditions.

* | batman-adv: Fix endianness errors for network codingMartin Hundebøll2013-03-272-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add a htonl() in network_coding.c when reading the sequence number from received ogm_packet, to avoid wrong byte ordering when comparing with a host value. This bug was introduced in 3ed7ada3f0bbcd058567bc0a8f9729a73eba7db6 ("batman-adv: network coding - detect coding nodes and remove these after timeout"). Change the type of coded_packet->coded_len from uint16 to __be16 to avoid wrong assumptions about endianness in later uses. Introduced in c3289f3650d34b60296000a629c99f2488f7c3dd ("batman-adv: network coding - code and transmit packets if possible").
