2008-08-23tcp: Add tcp_validate_incoming & put duplicated code thereIlpo Järvinen
Large block of code duplication removed. Sadly, the return value thing is a bit tricky here but it seems the most sensible way to return positive from validator on success rather than negative.

2008-08-22mac80211: add direct probe before associationRon Rindjunsky
This patch adds a direct probe request as first step in the association flow if data we have is not up to date. Motivation of this step is to make sure that the bss information we have is correct, since last scan could have been done a while ago, and beacons do not fully answer this need as there are potential differences between them and probe responses (e.g. WMM parameter element) Signed-off-by: Ron Rindjunsky <ron.rindjunsky@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Tomas Winkler <tomas.winkler@intel.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

2008-08-22replace net_device arguments with ieee80211_{local,sub_if_data} as appropriateJasper Bryant-Greene
This patch replaces net_device arguments to mac80211 internal functions with ieee80211_{local,sub_if_data} as appropriate. It also does the same for many 802.11s mesh functions, and changes the mesh path table to be indexed on sub_if_data rather than net_device. If the mesh part needs to be a separate patch let me know, but since mesh uses a lot of mac80211 functions which were being converted anyway, the changes go hand-in-hand somewhat. This patch probably does not convert all the functions which could be converted, but it is a large chunk and followup patches will be provided.

2008-08-22rfkill: introduce RFKILL_STATE_MAXHenrique de Moraes Holschuh
While it is interesting to not add last-enum-markers because it allows gcc to warn us of switch() statements missing a valid state, we really should be handling memory corruption on a rfkill state with default clauses, anyway. So add RFKILL_STATE_MAX and use it where applicable. It makes for safer code in the long run.

2008-08-22rfkill: add __must_check annotationsHenrique de Moraes Holschuh
rfkill is not a small, mere detail in wireless support. Once it starts supporting rfkill and users start counting on that support, a wireless device is at risk of operating in dangerous conditions should rfkill support fail to properly activate. Therefore, add the required __must_check annotations on some key functions of the rfkill API, for which the wireless drivers absolutely MUST handle the failure mode safely in order to avoid a potentially dangerous situation where the wireless transmitter is left enabled when the user don't want it to.

2008-08-22rfkill: add default global states (v2)Henrique de Moraes Holschuh
Add a second set of global states, "rfkill_default_states", to track the state that will be used when the first rfkill class of a given type is registered, and also to save "undo" information when rfkill_epo is called. Add a new exported function, rfkill_set_default(), which can be used by platform drivers to restore radio state saved by the platform across reboots or shutdown. Also, fix rfkill_epo to properly update rfkill_states, but still preserve a copy of the state so that we can undo the effect of rfkill_epo later if we want to. Add rfkill_restore_states() to restore rfkill_states from the copy. Signed-off-by: Henrique de Moraes Holschuh <hmh@hmh.eng.br> Acked-by: Ivo van Doorn <IvDoorn@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

dev_deactivate() can skip rescheduling of a qdisc by qdisc_watchdog() or other timer calling netif_schedule() after dev_queue_deactivate(). We prevent this checking aliveness before scheduling the timer. Since during deactivation the root qdisc is available only as qdisc_sleeping additional accessor qdisc_root_sleeping() is created.

2008-08-19pkt_sched: Prevent livelock in TX queue running.David S. Miller
If dev_deactivate() is trying to quiesce the queue, it is theoretically possible for another cpu to livelock trying to process that queue. This happens because dev_deactivate() grabs the queue spinlock as it checks the queue state, whereas net_tx_action() does a trylock and reschedules the qdisc if it hits the lock. This breaks the livelock by adding a check on __QDISC_STATE_DEACTIVATED to net_tx_action() when the trylock fails. Based upon feedback from Herbert Xu and Jarek Poplawski. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2008-08-18netfilter: ctnetlink: fix double helper assignation for NAT'ed conntracksPablo Neira Ayuso
If we create a conntrack that has NAT handlings and a helper, the helper is assigned twice. This happens because nf_nat_setup_info() - via nf_conntrack_alter_reply() - sets the helper before ctnetlink, which indeed does not check if the conntrack already has a helper as it thinks that it is a brand new conntrack. The fix moves the helper assignation before the set of the status flags. This avoids a bogus assertion in __nf_ct_ext_add (if netfilter assertions are enabled) which checks that the conntrack must not be confirmed.

2008-08-18dccp: Fix panic caused by too early termination of retransmission mechanismGerrit Renker
Thanks is due to Wei Yongjun for the detailed analysis and description of this bug at http://marc.info/?l=dccp&m=121739364909199&w=2 The problem is that invalid packets received by a client in state REQUEST cause the retransmission timer for the DCCP-Request to be reset. This includes freeing the Request-skb ( in dccp_rcv_request_sent_state_process() ). As a consequence, * the arrival of further packets cause a double-free, triggering a panic(), * the connection then may hang, since further retransmissions are blocked. This patch changes the order of statements so that the retransmission timer is reset, and the pending Request freed, only if a valid Response has arrived (or the number of sysctl-retries has been exhausted). Further changes: ---------------- To be on the safe side, replaced __kfree_skb with kfree_skb so that if due to unexpected circumstances the sk_send_head is NULL the WARN_ON is used instead.
