These functions were using pskb_may_pull() which might need to reallocate the linear SKB data buffer, but the callers were not expecting this possibility. The callers have cached pointers to the packet header areas, and would need to reload them if we were to continue using pskb_may_pull(). So they could end up reading garbage. It's easier to just change these RAW4/RAW6/MIP6 routines to use skb_header_pointer() instead of pskb_may_pull(), which won't modify the linear SKB data area. 2) Dave Jone's syscall spammer caught a case where a non-TCP socket can call down into the TCP keepalive code. The case basically involves creating a raw socket with sk_protocol == IPPROTO_TCP, then calling setsockopt(sock_fd, SO_KEEPALIVE, ...) Fixed by Eric Dumazet. 3) Bluetooth devices do not get configured properly while being powered on, resulting in always using legacy pairing instead of SSP. Fix from Andrzej Kaczmarek. 4) Bluetooth cancels delayed work erroneously, put stricter checks in place. From Andrei Emeltchenko. 5) Fix deadlock between cfg80211_mutex and reg_regdb_search_mutex in cfg80211, from Luis R. Rodriguez. 6) Fix interrupt double release in iwlwifi, from Emmanuel Grumbach. 7) Missing module license in bcm87xx driver, from Peter Huewe. 8) Team driver can lose port changed events when adding devices to a team, fix from Jiri Pirko. 9) Fix endless loop when trying ot unregister PPPOE device in zombie state, from Xiaodong Xu. 10) batman-adv layer needs to set MAC address of software device earlier, otherwise we call tt_local_add with it uninitialized. 11) Fix handling of KSZ8021 PHYs, it's matched currently by KS8051 but that doesn't program the device properly.

| | * batman-adv: Fix symmetry check / route flapping in multi interface setupsLinus Lüssing2012-09-231-6/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If receiving an OGM from a neighbor other than the currently selected and if it has the same TQ then we are supposed to switch if this neighbor provides a more symmetric link than the currently selected one. However this symmetry check currently is broken if the interface of the neighbor we received the OGM from and the one of the currently selected neighbor differ: We are currently trying to determine the symmetry of the link towards the selected router via the link we received the OGM from instead of just checking via the link towards the currently selected router. This leads to way more route switches than necessary and can lead to permanent route flapping in many common multi interface setups. This patch fixes this issue by using the right interface for this symmetry check. Signed-off-by: Linus Lüssing <linus.luessing@web.de>

Linville says: ==================== Please pull this last(?) batch of fixes intended for 3.6... For the Bluetooth bits, Gustavo says this: "Here goes probably my last update to 3.6. It includes the two patches you were ok last week(from Andrzej Kaczmarek), those are critical ones, and two other fixes one for a system crash and the other for a missing lockdep annotation." The referenced fixes from Andrzej prevent attempts to configure devices that are powered-off. Along with the Bluetooth fixes, there are a couple of 802.11 fixes. Emmanuel Grumbach gives us an iwlwifi fix to prevent releasing an interrupt twice. Luis R. Rodriguez provides a fix for a possible circular lock dependency in the cfg80211 regulatory enforcement code. All of these have been in linux-next for a few days. I hope they are not too late to make the 3.6 release! ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

If that workqueue kicks off it will first lock reg_regdb_search_mutex and later cfg80211_mutex but to ensure two CPUs will not contend against cfg80211_mutex the right thing to do is to have the reg_regdb_search() wait until the cfg80211_mutex is let go.

As an artifact of the way this code used to be structured, the kunmap() call was separated from the kmap() call and both were done conditionally. But the conditions under which the kmap() and kunmap() calls were made differed, so there was a chance a kunmap() call would be done on a page that had not been mapped. The symptom of this was tripping a BUG() in kunmap_high() when pkmap_count[nr] became 0. Reported-by: Bryan K.

* | | net: do not disable sg for packets requiring no checksumEd Cashin2012-09-201-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A change in a series of VLAN-related changes appears to have inadvertently disabled the use of the scatter gather feature of network cards for transmission of non-IP ethernet protocols like ATA over Ethernet (AoE). Below is a reference to the commit that introduces a "harmonize_features" function that turns off scatter gather when the NIC does not support hardware checksumming for the ethernet protocol of an sk buff. commit f01a5236bd4b140198fbcc550f085e8361fd73fa Author: Jesse Gross <jesse@nicira.com> Date: Sun Jan 9 06:23:31 2011 +0000 net offloading: Generalize netif_get_vlan_features(). The can_checksum_protocol function is not equipped to consider a protocol that does not require checksumming. Calling it for a protocol that requires no checksum is inappropriate. The patch below has harmonize_features call can_checksum_protocol when the protocol needs a checksum, so that the network layer is not forced to perform unnecessary skb linearization on the transmission of AoE packets. Unnecessary linearization results in decreased performance and increased memory pressure, as reported here: http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-mm/msg15184.html The problem has probably not been widely experienced yet, because only recently has the kernel.org-distributed aoe driver acquired the ability to use payloads of over a page in size, with the patchset recently included in the mm tree: https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/8/28/140 The coraid.com-distributed aoe driver already could use payloads of greater than a page in size, but its users generally do not use the newest kernels.

* | | xfrm_user: ensure user supplied esn replay window is validMathias Krause2012-09-201-6/+25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The current code fails to ensure that the netlink message actually contains as many bytes as the header indicates. If a user creates a new state or updates an existing one but does not supply the bytes for the whole ESN replay window, the kernel copies random heap bytes into the replay bitmap, the ones happen to follow the XFRMA_REPLAY_ESN_VAL netlink attribute. This leads to following issues: 1. The replay window has random bits set confusing the replay handling code later on. 2. A malicious user could use this flaw to leak up to ~3.5kB of heap memory when she has access to the XFRM netlink interface (requires CAP_NET_ADMIN). Known users of the ESN replay window are strongSwan and Steffen's iproute2 patch (<http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/85962/>). The latter uses the interface with a bitmap supplied while the former does not. strongSwan is therefore prone to run into issue 1. To fix both issues without breaking existing userland allow using the XFRMA_REPLAY_ESN_VAL netlink attribute with either an empty bitmap or a fully specified one. For the former case we initialize the in-kernel bitmap with zero, for the latter we copy the user supplied bitmap. For state updates the full bitmap must be supplied. To prevent overflows in the bitmap length calculation the maximum size of bmp_len is limited to 128 by this patch -- resulting in a maximum replay window of 4096 packets. This should be sufficient for all real life scenarios (RFC 4303 recommends a default replay window size of 64).

Both this parameters are set on a connection handshake. Without this value a remote window size can not be interpreted correctly, because a value from a packet should be shifted on rcv_wscale. And one more thing is that wscale_ok should be set too. This patch doesn't break a backward compatibility. If someone uses it in a old scheme, a rcv window will be restored with the same bug (rcv_wscale = 0). v2: Save backward compatibility on big-endian system. Before the first two bytes were snd_wscale and the second two bytes were rcv_wscale. Now snd_wscale is opt_val & 0xFFFF and rcv_wscale >> 16. This approach is independent on byte ordering.

This may happen when QFQ assigns to the start time of cl the finish time of a group whose classes are characterized by a higher value of the ratio max_class_pkt/weight_of_the_class with respect to that of cl. Inserting a class with a too high start time into the bucket list corrupts the data structure and may eventually lead to crashes. This patch limits the maximum start time assigned to a class.

The problem was discovered by Jan Wrobel and it is documented in: http://mixedbit.org/reflection_scan/reflection_scan.pdf. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Do so. Use KERN_SOH and string concatenation instead of "%c" KERN_SOH_ASCII as suggested by Eric Dumazet.
