2010-01-13ipv6: skb_dst() can be NULL in ipv6_hop_jumbo().David S. Miller
This fixes CERT-FI FICORA #341748 Discovered by Olli Jarva and Tuomo Untinen from the CROSS project at Codenomicon Ltd. Just like in CVE-2007-4567, we can't rely upon skb_dst() being non-NULL at this point. We fixed that in commit e76b2b2567b83448c2ee85a896433b96150c92e6 ("[IPV6]: Do no rely on skb->dst before it is assigned.") However commit 483a47d2fe794328d29950fe00ce26dd405d9437 ("ipv6: added net argument to IP6_INC_STATS_BH") put a new version of the same bug into this function. Complicating analysis further, this bug can only trigger when network namespaces are enabled in the build. When namespaces are turned off, the dev_net() does not evaluate it's argument, so the dereference would not occur. So, for a long time, namespaces couldn't be turned on unless SYSFS was disabled. Therefore, this code has largely been disabled except by people turning it on explicitly for namespace development. With help from Eugene Teo <eugene@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2010-01-11mac80211: fix queue selection for data frames on monitor interfacesFelix Fietkau
When ieee80211_monitor_select_queue encounters data frames, it selects the WMM AC based on skb->priority and assumes that skb->priority contains a valid 802.1d tag. However this assumption is incorrect, since ieee80211_select_queue has not been called at this point. If skb->priority > 7, an array overrun occurs, which could lead to invalid values, resulting in crashes in the tx path. Fix this by setting skb->priority based on the 802.11 header for QoS frames and using the default AC for all non-QoS frames. Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org> Signed-off-by: John W.

2010-01-08mac80211: fix queue selection for packets injected via monitor interfaceLennert Buytenhek
Commit 'mac80211: fix skb buffering issue' added an ->ndo_select_queue() for monitor interfaces which can end up dereferencing ieee802_1d_to_ac[] beyond the end of the array for injected data packets (as skb->priority isn't guaranteed to be zero or within [0:7]), which then triggers the WARN_ON in net/core/dev.c:dev_cap_txqueue().

2010-01-06ip: fix mc_loop checks for tunnels with multicast outer addressesOctavian Purdila
When we have L3 tunnels with different inner/outer families (i.e. IPV4/IPV6) which use a multicast address as the outer tunnel destination address, multicast packets will be loopbacked back to the sending socket even if IP*_MULTICAST_LOOP is set to disabled. The mc_loop flag is present in the family specific part of the socket (e.g. the IPv4 or IPv4 specific part). setsockopt sets the inner family mc_loop flag. When the packet is pushed through the L3 tunnel it will eventually be processed by the outer family which if different will check the flag in a different part of the socket then it was set.

2010-01-06sunrpc: fix peername failed on closed listenerXiaotian Feng
There're some warnings of "nfsd: peername failed (err 107)!" socket error -107 means Transport endpoint is not connected. This warning message was outputed by svc_tcp_accept() [net/sunrpc/svcsock.c], when kernel_getpeername returns -107. This means socket might be CLOSED. And svc_tcp_accept was called by svc_recv() [net/sunrpc/svc_xprt.c] if (test_bit(XPT_LISTENER, &xprt->xpt_flags)) { <snip> newxpt = xprt->xpt_ops->xpo_accept(xprt); <snip> So this might happen when xprt->xpt_flags has both XPT_LISTENER and XPT_CLOSE. Let's take a look at commit b0401d72, this commit has moved the close processing after do recvfrom method, but this commit also introduces this warnings, if the xpt_flags has both XPT_LISTENER and XPT_CLOSED, we should close it, not accpet then close.

2010-01-05mac80211: fix skb buffering issueJohannes Berg
Since I removed the master netdev, we've been keeping internal queues only, and even before that we never told the networking stack above the virtual interfaces about congestion. This means that packets are queued in mac80211 and the upper layers never know, possibly leading to memory exhaustion and other problems. This patch makes all interfaces multiqueue and uses ndo_select_queue to put the packets into queues per AC. Additionally, when the driver stops a queue, we now stop all corresponding queues for the virtual interfaces as well. The injection case will use VO by default for non-data frames, and BE for data frames, but downgrade any data frames according to ACM. It needs to be fleshed out in the future to allow chosing the queue/AC in radiotap.

2010-01-04ipvs: Add boundary check on ioctl argumentsArjan van de Ven
The ipvs code has a nifty system for doing the size of ioctl command copies; it defines an array with values into which it indexes the cmd to find the right length. Unfortunately, the ipvs code forgot to check if the cmd was in the range that the array provides, allowing for an index outside of the array, which then gives a "garbage" result into the length, which then gets used for copying into a stack buffer. Fix this by adding sanity checks on these as well as the copy size.

2009-12-28mac80211: fix propagation of failed hardware reconfigurationsLuis R. Rodriguez
mac80211 does not propagate failed hardware reconfiguration requests. For suspend and resume this is important due to all the possible issues that can come out of the suspend <-> resume cycle. Not propagating the error means cfg80211 will assume the resume for the device went through fine and mac80211 will continue on trying to poke at the hardware, enable timers, queue work, and so on for a device which is completley unfunctional. The least we can do is to propagate device start issues and warn when this occurs upon resume. A side effect of this patch is we also now propagate the start errors upon harware reconfigurations (non-suspend), but this should also be desirable anyway, there is not point in continuing to reconfigure a device if mac80211 was unable to start the device.

2009-12-28mac80211: fix race with suspend and dynamic_ps_disable_workLuis R. Rodriguez
When mac80211 suspends it calls a driver's suspend callback as a last step and after that the driver assumes no calls will be made to it until we resume and its start callback is kicked. If such calls are made, however, suspend can end up throwing hardware in an unexpected state and making the device unusable upon resume. Fix this by preventing mac80211 to schedule dynamic_ps_disable_work by checking for when mac80211 starts to suspend and starts quiescing. Frames should be allowed to go through though as that is part of the quiescing steps and we do not flush the mac80211 workqueue since it was already done towards the beginning of suspend cycle. The other mac80211 issue will be hanled in the next patch. For further details see refer to the thread: http://marc.info/?t=126144866100001&r=1&w=2 Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Luis R.

In that case, it may happen that mac80211 tries to report the assoc success to cfg80211, but gets blocked on the wdev lock that is held because the user is requesting the deauth. The result is that we run into a warning. This is mostly harmless, but maybe cause an unexpected event to be sent to userspace; we'd send an assoc success event although userspace was no longer expecting that. To fix this, remove the warning and check whether the race happened and in that case abort processing.

One such a case is transparent proxying where we pretend to be the destination system and therefore the local table is used for incoming packets but possibly a main table would be used on outbound.

2009-12-22kfifo: move out spinlockStefani Seibold
Move the pointer to the spinlock out of struct kfifo. Most users in tree do not actually use a spinlock, so the few exceptions now have to call kfifo_{get,put}_locked, which takes an extra argument to a spinlock.

2009-12-22kfifo: move struct kfifo in placeStefani Seibold
This is a new generic kernel FIFO implementation. The current kernel fifo API is not very widely used, because it has to many constrains. Only 17 files in the current 2.6.31-rc5 used it. FIFO's are like list's a very basic thing and a kfifo API which handles the most use case would save a lot of development time and memory resources. I think this are the reasons why kfifo is not in use: - The API is to simple, important functions are missing - A fifo can be only allocated dynamically - There is a requirement of a spinlock whether you need it or not - There is no support for data records inside a fifo So I decided to extend the kfifo in a more generic way without blowing up the API to much. The new API has the following benefits: - Generic usage: For kernel internal use and/or device driver. - Provide an API for the most use case. - Slim API: The whole API provides 25 functions. - Linux style habit. - DECLARE_KFIFO, DEFINE_KFIFO and INIT_KFIFO Macros - Direct copy_to_user from the fifo and copy_from_user into the fifo. - The kfifo itself is an in place member of the using data structure, this save an indirection access and does not waste the kernel allocator. - Lockless access: if only one reader and one writer is active on the fifo, which is the common use case, no additional locking is necessary. - Remove spinlock - give the user the freedom of choice what kind of locking to use if one is required. - Ability to handle records. Three type of records are supported: - Variable length records between 0-255 bytes, with a record size field of 1 bytes. - Variable length records between 0-65535 bytes, with a record size field of 2 bytes. - Fixed size records, which no record size field. - Preserve memory resource. - Performance! - Easy to use! This patch: Since most users want to have the kfifo as part of another object, reorganize the code to allow including struct kfifo in another data structure. This requires changing the kfifo_alloc and kfifo_init prototypes so that we pass an existing kfifo pointer into them. This patch changes the implementation and all existing users.

2009-12-21mac80211: fix WMM AP settings applicationJohannes Berg
My commit 77fdaa12cea26c204cc12c312fe40bc0f3dcdfd8 Author: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Date: Tue Jul 7 03:45:17 2009 +0200 mac80211: rework MLME for multiple authentications inadvertedly broke WMM because it removed, along with a bunch of other now useless initialisations, the line initialising sdata->u.mgd.wmm_last_param_set to -1 which would make it adopt any WMM parameter set. If, as is usually the case, the AP uses WMM parameter set sequence number zero, we'd never update it until the AP changes the sequence number. Add the missing initialisation back to get the WMM settings from the AP applied locally.

2009-12-21mac80211: fix peer HT capabilitiesJohannes Berg
I noticed yesterday, because Jeff had noticed a speed regression, cf. bug http://bugzilla.intellinuxwireless.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2138 that the SM PS settings for peers were wrong. Instead of overwriting the SM PS settings with the local bits, we need to keep the remote bits. The bug was part of the original HT code from over two years ago, but unfortunately nobody noticed that it makes no sense -- we shouldn't be overwriting the peer's setting with our own but rather keep it intact when masking the peer capabilities with our own. While fixing that, I noticed that the masking of capabilities is completely useless for most of the bits, so also fix those other bits. Finally, I also noticed that PSMP_SUPPORT no longer exists in the final 802.11n version, so also remove that. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W.

2009-12-18sunrpc: on successful gss error pipe write, don't return errorJeff Layton
When handling the gssd downcall, the kernel should distinguish between a successful downcall that contains an error code and a failed downcall (i.e. where the parsing failed or some other sort of problem occurred). In the former case, gss_pipe_downcall should be returning the number of bytes written to the pipe instead of an error. In the event of other errors, we generally want the initiating task to retry the upcall so we set msg.errno to -EAGAIN. An unexpected error code here is a bug however, so BUG() in that case.
