| * mac80211: fix propagation of failed hardware reconfigurationsLuis R. Rodriguez2009-12-281-0/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

| * mac80211: fix race with suspend and dynamic_ps_disable_workLuis R. Rodriguez2009-12-281-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

| * mac80211: fix ibss join with fixed-bssidFelix Fietkau2009-12-281-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When fixed bssid is requested when joining an ibss network, incoming beacons that match the configured bssid cause mac80211 to create new sta entries, even before the ibss interface is in joined state. When that happens, it fails to bring up the interface entirely, because it checks for existing sta entries before joining. This patch fixes this bug by refusing to create sta info entries before the interface is fully operational. Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org> Signed-off-by: John W.

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.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

Then slaves will be kept on CLOSE_WAIT/TIME_WAIT until timeout reaches. Thus we should also sync with CLOSE.

They try to use the listening socket's 'dst' to probe the route settings. The listening socket doesn't even have a route, and you can't get the right route (the child request one) until much later after we setup all of the state, and it must be done by hand. This stuff really isn't ready, so the best thing to do is a full revert.

* | | net: Fix userspace RTM_NEWLINK notifications.Eric W. Biederman2009-12-142-3/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I received some bug reports about userspace programs having problems because after RTM_NEWLINK was received they could not immediate access files under /proc/sys/net/ because they had not been registered yet. The original problem was trivially fixed by moving the userspace notification from rtnetlink_event() to the end of register_netdevice(). When testing that change I discovered I was still getting RTM_NEWLINK events before I could access proc and I was also getting RTM_NEWLINK events after I was seeing RTM_DELLINK. Things practically guaranteed to confuse userspace. After a little more investigation these extra notifications proved to be from the new notifiers NETDEV_POST_INIT and NETDEV_UNREGISTER_BATCH hitting the default case in rtnetlink_event, and triggering unnecessary RTM_NEWLINK messages. rtnetlink_event now explicitly handles NETDEV_UNREGISTER_BATCH and NETDEV_POST_INIT to avoid sending the incorrect userspace notifications.

If unregister_netdevice_many() is called with both registered and unregistered devices, rollback_registered_many() bails out when it reaches the first unregistered device. The processing of the prior registered devices is unfinished, and the remaining devices are skipped, and possible registered netdev's are leaked/unregistered. 2. System hangs or panics depending on how the devices are passed, since when netdev_run_todo() runs, some devices were not fully processed. Tested by passing intermingled unregistered and registered vlan devices to unregister_netdevice_many() as follows: 1. dev, fake_dev1, fake_dev2: hangs in run_todo ("unregister_netdevice: waiting for eth1.100 to become free. Usage count = 1") 2. fake_dev1, dev, fake_dev2: failure during de-registration and next registration, followed by a vlan driver Oops during subsequent registration.

In such cases we might end up into a state where tp->retrans_out is zero but that's only because we removed the TCPCB_SACKED_RETRANS bit from a segment but couldn't retransmit it because of the error that happened. Therefore some assumptions that retrans_out checks are based do not necessarily hold, as there still can be an old retransmission but that is only visible in TCPCB_EVER_RETRANS bit. As retransmission happen in sequential order (except for some very rare corner cases), it's enough to check the head skb for that bit. Main reason for all this complexity is the fact that connection dying time now depends on the validity of the retrans_stamp, in particular, that successive retransmissions of a segment must not advance retrans_stamp under any conditions. It seems after quick thinking that this has relatively low impact as eventually TCP will go into CA_Loss and either use the existing check for !retrans_stamp case or send a retransmission successfully, setting a new base time for the dying timer (can happen only once). At worst, the dying time will be approximately the double of the intented time. In addition, tcp_packet_delayed() will return wrong result (has some cc aspects but due to rarity of these errors, it's hardly an issue). One of retrans_stamp clearing happens indirectly through first going into CA_Open state and then a later ACK lets the clearing to happen. Thus tcp_try_keep_open has to be modified too. Thanks to Damian Lukowski <damian@tvk.rwth-aachen.de> for hinting that this possibility exists (though the particular case discussed didn't after all have it happening but was just a debug patch artifact).
