34a9660ba1 mac80211: zero initialize count field in ieee80211_tx_rate
commit 8617b093d0 upstream.

rate control algorithms concludes the rate as invalid
with rate[i].idx < -1 , while they do also check for rate[i].count is
non-zero. it would be safer to zero initialize the 'count' field.
recently we had a ath9k rate control crash where the ath9k rate control
in ath_tx_status assumed to check only for rate[i].count being non-zero
in one instance and ended up in using invalid rate index for
'connection monitoring NULL func frames' which eventually lead to the crash.
thanks to Pavel Roskin for fixing it and finding the root cause.

426f45680c ipvs: fix matching of fwmark templates during scheduling
commit e0aac52e17 upstream.

	Commit f11017ec2d (2.6.37)
moved the fwmark variable in subcontext that is invalidated before
reaching the ip_vs_ct_in_get call. As vaddr is provided as pointer
in the param structure make sure the fwmark variable is in
same context. As the fwmark templates can not be matched,
more and more template connections are created and the
controlled connections can not go to single real server.

42ab5316dd ipv4: fix redirect handling
[ Upstream commit 9cc20b268a ]

commit f39925dbde (ipv4: Cache learned redirect information in
inetpeer.) introduced a regression in ICMP redirect handling.

It assumed ipv4_dst_check() would be called because all possible routes
were attached to the inetpeer we modify in ip_rt_redirect(), but thats
not true.

commit 7cc9150ebe (route: fix ICMP redirect validation) tried to fix
this but solution was not complete. (It fixed only one route)

So we must lookup existing routes (including different TOS values) and
call check_peer_redir() on them.

bebee22bcb route: fix ICMP redirect validation
[ Upstream commit 7cc9150ebe ]

The commit f39925dbde
(ipv4: Cache learned redirect information in inetpeer.)
removed some ICMP packet validations which are required by
RFC 1122, section 3.2.2.2:
...
  A Redirect message SHOULD be silently discarded if the new
  gateway address it specifies is not on the same connected
  (sub-) net through which the Redirect arrived [INTRO:2,
  Appendix A], or if the source of the Redirect is not the
  current first-hop gateway for the specified destination (see
  Section 3.3.1).

623f1904ef tcp: fix tcp_shifted_skb() adjustment of lost_cnt_hint for FACK
[ Upstream commit 0af2a0d057 ]

This commit ensures that lost_cnt_hint is correctly updated in
tcp_shifted_skb() for FACK TCP senders. The lost_cnt_hint adjustment
in tcp_sacktag_one() only applies to non-FACK senders, so FACK senders
need their own adjustment.

This applies the spirit of 1e5289e121 -
except now that the sequence range passed into tcp_sacktag_one() is
correct we need only have a special case adjustment for FACK.

dd31c1ce7e tcp: fix range tcp_shifted_skb() passes to tcp_sacktag_one()
[ Upstream commit daef52bab1 ]

Fix the newly-SACKed range to be the range of newly-shifted bytes.

Previously - since 832d11c5cd -
tcp_shifted_skb() incorrectly called tcp_sacktag_one() with the start
and end sequence numbers of the skb it passes in set to the range just
beyond the range that is newly-SACKed.

This commit also removes a special-case adjustment to lost_cnt_hint in
tcp_shifted_skb() since the pre-existing adjustment of lost_cnt_hint
in tcp_sacktag_one() now properly handles this things now that the
correct start sequence number is passed in.

382e8f84cb tcp: allow tcp_sacktag_one() to tag ranges not aligned with skbs
[ Upstream commit cc9a672ee5 ]

This commit allows callers of tcp_sacktag_one() to pass in sequence
ranges that do not align with skb boundaries, as tcp_shifted_skb()
needs to do in an upcoming fix in this patch series.

In fact, now tcp_sacktag_one() does not need to depend on an input skb
at all, which makes its semantics and dependencies more clear.

[ Upstream commit e2446eaab5 ]

Binding RST packet outgoing interface to incoming interface
for tcp v4 when there is no socket associate with it.
when sk is not NULL, using sk->sk_bound_dev_if instead.
(suggested by Eric Dumazet).

This has few benefits:
1. tcp_v6_send_reset already did that.
2. This helps tcp connect with SO_BINDTODEVICE set. When
connection is lost, we still able to sending out RST using
same interface.
3. we are sending reply, it is most likely to be succeed
if iif is used

32fa5d8323 gro: more generic L2 header check
[ Upstream commit 5ca3b72c5d ]

Shlomo Pongratz reported GRO L2 header check was suited for Ethernet
only, and failed on IB/ipoib traffic.

He provided a patch faking a zeroed header to let GRO aggregates frames.

Roland Dreier, Herbert Xu, and others suggested we change GRO L2 header
check to be more generic, ie not assuming L2 header is 14 bytes, but
taking into account hard_header_len.

__napi_gro_receive() has special handling for the common case (Ethernet)
to avoid a memcmp() call and use an inline optimized function instead.

the intilization of this read/write lock happens via the path

Gergely Kalman reported crashes in check_peer_redir().

It appears commit f39925dbde (ipv4: Cache learned redirect
information in inetpeer.) added a race, leading to possible NULL ptr
dereference.

Since we can now change dst neighbour, we should make sure a reader can
safely use a neighbour.

Add RCU protection to dst neighbour, and make sure check_peer_redir()
can be called safely by different cpus in parallel.

As neighbours are already freed after one RCU grace period, this patch
should not add typical RCU penalty (cache cold effects)

Many thanks to Gergely for providing a pretty report pointing to the
bug.

8b4bb350e1 tcp: fix tcp_trim_head() to adjust segment count with skb MSS
[ Upstream commit 5b35e1e6e9 ]

This commit fixes tcp_trim_head() to recalculate the number of
segments in the skb with the skb's existing MSS, so trimming the head
causes the skb segment count to be monotonically non-increasing - it
should stay the same or go down, but not increase.

Previously tcp_trim_head() used the current MSS of the connection. But
if there was a decrease in MSS between original transmission and ACK
(e.g. due to PMTUD), this could cause tcp_trim_head() to
counter-intuitively increase the segment count when trimming bytes off
the head of an skb. This violated assumptions in tcp_tso_acked() that
tcp_trim_head() only decreases the packet count, so that packets_acked
in tcp_tso_acked() could underflow, leading tcp_clean_rtx_queue() to
pass u32 pkts_acked values as large as 0xffffffff to
ca_ops->pkts_acked().

As an aside, if tcp_trim_head() had really wanted the skb to reflect
the current MSS, it should have called tcp_set_skb_tso_segs()
unconditionally, since a decrease in MSS would mean that a
single-packet skb should now be sliced into multiple segments.

f217c4711d rds: Make rds_sock_lock BH rather than IRQ safe.

rds_sock_info() triggers locking warnings because we try to perform a
local_bh_enable() (via sock_i_ino()) while hardware interrupts are
disabled (via taking rds_sock_lock).

There is no reason for rds_sock_lock to be a hardware IRQ disabling
lock, none of these access paths run in hardware interrupt context.

Therefore making it a BH disabling lock is safe and sufficient to
fix this bug.

1334533665 l2tp: l2tp_ip - fix possible oops on packet receive
[ Upstream commit 68315801db ]

When a packet is received on an L2TP IP socket (L2TPv3 IP link
encapsulation), the l2tpip socket's backlog_rcv function calls
xfrm4_policy_check(). This is not necessary, since it was called
before the skb was added to the backlog. With CONFIG_NET_NS enabled,
xfrm4_policy_check() will oops if skb->dev is null, so this trivial
patch removes the call.

This bug has always been present, but only when CONFIG_NET_NS is
enabled does it cause problems. Most users are probably using UDP
encapsulation for L2TP, hence the problem has only recently
surfaced.

62252cba28 net caif: Register properly as a pernet subsystem.
[ Upstream commit 8a8ee9aff6 ]

caif is a subsystem and as such it needs to register with
register_pernet_subsys instead of register_pernet_device.

Among other problems using register_pernet_device was resulting in
net_generic being called before the caif_net structure was allocated.
Which has been causing net_generic to fail with either BUG_ON's or by
return NULL pointers.

A more ugly problem that could be caused is packets in flight why the
subsystem is shutting down.

To remove confusion also remove the cruft cause by inappropriately
trying to fix this bug.

With the aid of the previous patch I have tested this patch and
confirmed that using register_pernet_subsys makes the failure go away as
it should.

When a new net namespace is created, we should attach to it a "struct

net_alloc_generic() should take into account the maximum index into the

This also reduces number of reallocations in net_assign_generic()

ffee9a18f2 ah: Don't return NET_XMIT_DROP on input.
commit 4b90a603a1 upstream.

When the ahash driver returns -EBUSY, AH4/6 input functions return
NET_XMIT_DROP, presumably copied from the output code path.  But
returning transmit codes on input doesn't make a lot of sense.
Since NET_XMIT_DROP is a positive int, this gets interpreted as
the next header type (i.e., success).  As that can only end badly,
remove the check.

d253520a7b ah: Correctly pass error codes in ahash output callback.
commit 069294e813 upstream.

The AH4/6 ahash output callbacks pass nexthdr to xfrm_output_resume
instead of the error code.  This appears to be a copy+paste error from
the input case, where nexthdr is expected.  This causes the driver to
continuously add AH headers to the datagram until either an allocation
fails and the packet is dropped or the ahash driver hits a synchronous
fallback and the resulting monstrosity is transmitted.

Correct this issue by simply passing the error code unadulterated.

a141a5eb3a svcrpc: avoid memory-corruption on pool shutdown
commit b4f36f88b3 upstream.

Socket callbacks use svc_xprt_enqueue() to add an xprt to a
pool->sp_sockets list.  In normal operation a server thread will later
come along and take the xprt off that list.  On shutdown, after all the
threads have exited, we instead manually walk the sv_tempsocks and
sv_permsocks lists to find all the xprt's and delete them.

So the sp_sockets lists don't really matter any more.  As a result,
we've mostly just ignored them and hoped they would go away.

Which has gotten us into trouble; witness for example ebc63e531c
"svcrpc: fix list-corrupting race on nfsd shutdown", the result of Ben
Greear noticing that a still-running svc_xprt_enqueue() could re-add an
xprt to an sp_sockets list just before it was deleted.  The fix was to
remove it from the list at the end of svc_delete_xprt().  But that only
made corruption less likely--I can see nothing that prevents a
svc_xprt_enqueue() from adding another xprt to the list at the same
moment that we're removing this xprt from the list.  In fact, despite
the earlier xpo_detach(), I don't even see what guarantees that
svc_xprt_enqueue() couldn't still be running on this xprt.

So, instead, note that svc_xprt_enqueue() essentially does:
	lock sp_lock
		if XPT_BUSY unset
			add to sp_sockets
	unlock sp_lock

So, if we do:

	set XPT_BUSY on every xprt.
	Empty every sp_sockets list, under the sp_socks locks.

Then we're left knowing that the sp_sockets lists are all empty and will
stay that way, since any svc_xprt_enqueue() will check XPT_BUSY under
the sp_lock and see it set.

And *then* we can continue deleting the xprt's.

(Thanks to Jeff Layton for being correctly suspicious of this code....)

b09577ca66 svcrpc: fix double-free on shutdown of nfsd after changing pool mode
commit 61c8504c42 upstream.

The pool_to and to_pool fields of the global svc_pool_map are freed on
shutdown, but are initialized in nfsd startup only in the
SVC_POOL_PERCPU and SVC_POOL_PERNODE cases.

They *are* initialized to zero on kernel startup.  So as long as you use
only SVC_POOL_GLOBAL (the default), this will never be a problem.

You're also OK if you only ever use SVC_POOL_PERCPU or SVC_POOL_PERNODE.

However, the following sequence events leads to a double-free:

	1. set SVC_POOL_PERCPU or SVC_POOL_PERNODE
	2. start nfsd: both fields are initialized.
	3. shutdown nfsd: both fields are freed.
	4. set SVC_POOL_GLOBAL
	5. start nfsd: the fields are left untouched.
	6. shutdown nfsd: now we try to free them again.

Step 4 is actually unnecessary, since (for some bizarre reason), nfsd
automatically resets the pool mode to SVC_POOL_GLOBAL on shutdown.

commit 1140afa862 upstream.

Author: Christian Lamparter <chunkeey@googlemail.com>
Date:   Sat Apr 30 15:24:30 2011 +0200

    mac80211: consolidate MIC failure report handling

is possible to that we dereference rx->key == NULL when driver set
RX_FLAG_MMIC_STRIPPED and not RX_FLAG_IV_STRIPPED and we are in
promiscuous mode. This happen with rt73usb and rt61pci at least.

Before the commit we always check rx->key against NULL, so I assume
fix should be done in mac80211 (also mic_fail path has similar check).

0e5fe3ed8d sctp: Do not account for sizeof(struct sk_buff) in estimated rwnd
[ Upstream commit a76c0adf60 ]

When checking whether a DATA chunk fits into the estimated rwnd a
full sizeof(struct sk_buff) is added to the needed chunk size. This
quickly exhausts the available rwnd space and leads to packets being
sent which are much below the PMTU limit. This can lead to much worse
performance.

The reason for this behaviour was to avoid putting too much memory
pressure on the receiver. The concept is not completely irational
because a Linux receiver does in fact clone an skb for each DATA chunk
delivered. However, Linux also reserves half the available socket
buffer space for data structures therefore usage of it is already
accounted for.

When proposing to change this the last time it was noted that this
behaviour was introduced to solve a performance issue caused by rwnd
overusage in combination with small DATA chunks.

Trying to reproduce this I found that with the sk_buff overhead removed,
the performance would improve significantly unless socket buffer limits
are increased.

The following numbers have been gathered using a patched iperf
supporting SCTP over a live 1 Gbit ethernet network. The -l option
was used to limit DATA chunk sizes. The numbers listed are based on
the average of 3 test runs each. Default values have been used for
sk_(r|w)mem.

f6e4c89e08 sctp: fix incorrect overflow check on autoclose
[ Upstream commit 2692ba61a8 ]

Commit 8ffd3208 voids the previous patches f6778aab and 810c0719 for
limiting the autoclose value.  If userspace passes in -1 on 32-bit
platform, the overflow check didn't work and autoclose would be set
to 0xffffffff.

This patch defines a max_autoclose (in seconds) for limiting the value
and exposes it through sysctl, with the following intentions.

1) Avoid overflowing autoclose * HZ.

2) Keep the default autoclose bound consistent across 32- and 64-bit
   platforms (INT_MAX / HZ in this patch).

3) Keep the autoclose value consistent between setsockopt() and
   getsockopt() calls.

afa2450ce3 mac80211: fix another race in aggregation start
commit 15062e6a85 upstream.

Emmanuel noticed that when mac80211 stops the queues
for aggregation that can leave a packet pending. This
packet will be given to the driver after the AMPDU
callback, but as a non-aggregated packet which messes
up the sequence number etc.

I also noticed by looking at the code that if packets
are being processed while we clear the WANT_START bit,
they might see it cleared already and queue up on
tid_tx->pending. If the driver then rejects the new
aggregation session we leak the packet.

Fix both of these issues by changing this code to not
stop the queues at all. Instead, let packets queue up
on the tid_tx->pending queue instead of letting them
get to the driver, and add code to recover properly
in case the driver rejects the session.

(The patch looks large because it has to move two
functions to before their new use.)

regulatory hints where a request_wiphy is expected. The stale last_request
considerations are addressed through the previous fixes on last_request
where we reset the last_request to a static world regdom request upon
reset_regdomains(). In this case though we further enhance the effect
by simply restoring reguluatory settings completely.

3ed26be173 cfg80211: fix race on init and driver registration
commit a042994dd3 upstream.

There is a theoretical race that if hit will trigger
a crash. The race is between when we issue the first
regulatory hint, regulatory_hint_core(), gets processed
by the workqueue and between when the first device
gets registered to the wireless core. This is not easy
to reproduce but it was easy to do so through the
regulatory simulator I have been working on. This
is a port of the fix I implemented there [1].

20f8d72586 mac80211: fix race between the AGG SM and the Tx data path
commit 2a1e0fd175 upstream.

When a packet is supposed to sent be as an a-MPDU, mac80211 sets
IEEE80211_TX_CTL_AMPDU to let the driver know. On the other
hand, mac80211 configures the driver for aggregration with the
ampdu_action callback.
There is race between these two mechanisms since the following
scenario can occur when the BA agreement is torn down:

Tx softIRQ	 			drv configuration
==========				=================

check OPERATIONAL bit
Set the TX_CTL_AMPDU bit in the packet

					clear OPERATIONAL bit
					stop Tx AGG
Pass Tx packet to the driver.

In that case the driver would get a packet with TX_CTL_AMPDU set
although it has already been notified that the BA session has been
torn down.

To fix this, we need to synchronize all the Qdisc activity after we
cleared the OPERATIONAL bit. After that step, all the following
packets will be buffered until the driver reports it is ready to get
new packets for this RA / TID. This buffering allows not to run into
another race that would send packets with TX_CTL_AMPDU unset while
the driver hasn't been requested to tear down the BA session yet.

This race occurs in practice and iwlwifi complains with a WARN_ON
when it happens.
