12186be7d2 net_cls: fix unconfigured struct tcf_proto keeps chaining and avoid kernel panic when we use cls_cgroup
This patch fixes a bug which unconfigured struct tcf_proto keeps
chaining in tc_ctl_tfilter(), and avoids kernel panic in
cls_cgroup_classify() when we use cls_cgroup.

When we execute 'tc filter add', tcf_proto is allocated, initialized
by classifier's init(), and chained.  After it's chained,
tc_ctl_tfilter() calls classifier's change().  When classifier's
change() fails, tc_ctl_tfilter() does not free and keeps tcf_proto.

In addition, cls_cgroup is initialized in change() not in init().  It
accesses unconfigured struct tcf_proto which is chained before
change(), then hits Oops.

ea30e11970 e1000: add missing length check to e1000 receive routine
Patch to fix bad length checking in e1000.  E1000 by default does two
things:

1) Spans rx descriptors for packets that don't fit into 1 skb on recieve
2) Strips the crc from a frame by subtracting 4 bytes from the length prior to
doing an skb_put

Since the e1000 driver isn't written to support receiving packets that span
multiple rx buffers, it checks the End of Packet bit of every frame, and
discards it if its not set.  This places us in a situation where, if we have a
spanning packet, the first part is discarded, but the second part is not (since
it is the end of packet, and it passes the EOP bit test).  If the second part of
the frame is small (4 bytes or less), we subtract 4 from it to remove its crc,
underflow the length, and wind up in skb_over_panic, when we try to skb_put a
huge number of bytes into the skb.  This amounts to a remote DOS attack through
careful selection of frame size in relation to interface MTU.  The fix for this
is already in the e1000e driver, as well as the e1000 sourceforge driver, but no
one ever pushed it to e1000.  This is lifted straight from e1000e, and prevents
small frames from causing the underflow described above

5a9a8e32eb forcedeth: add phy_power_down parameter, leave phy powered up by default (v2)
Add a phy_power_down parameter to forcedeth: set to 1 to power down the
phy and disable the link when an interface goes down; set to 0 to always
leave the phy powered up.

The phy power state persists across reboots; Windows, some BIOSes, and
older versions of Linux don't bother to power up the phy again, forcing
users to remove all power to get the interface working (see
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13072).  Leaving the phy
powered on is the safest default behavior.  Users accustomed to seeing
the link state reflect the interface state and/or wanting to minimize
power consumption can set phy_power_down=1 if compatibility with other
OSes is not an issue.

  cxgb3: map entire Rx page, feed map+offset to Rx ring.

introduced a regression on platforms defining DECLARE_PCI_UNMAP_ADDR()
and related macros as no-ops.

Rx descriptors are fed with the a page buffer bus address + page chunk offset.
The page buffer bus address is set and retrieved through
pci_unamp_addr_set(), pci_unmap_addr().
These functions being meaningless on x86 (if CONFIG_DMA_API_DEBUG is not set).
The HW ends up with a bogus bus address.

5ad1890035 atlx: move modinfo data from atlx.h to atl1.c

18a36c1a39 gianfar: fix babbling rx error event bug
Gianfar interrupt handler uses IEVENT_ERR_MASK to check and handle errors.
Babbling RX error (IEVENT_BABR) should be included in IEVENT_ERROR_MASK.
Otherwise if BABR is raised, it never gets handled nor cleared, and an

f11a377b3f r8169: avoid losing MSI interrupts
The 8169 chip only generates MSI interrupts when all enabled event
sources are quiescent and one or more sources transition to active. If
not all of the active events are acknowledged, or a new event becomes
active while the existing ones are cleared in the handler, we will not
see a new interrupt.

The current interrupt handler masks off the Rx and Tx events once the
NAPI handler has been scheduled, which opens a race window in which we
can get another Rx or Tx event and never ACK'ing it, stopping all
activity until the link is reset (ifconfig down/up). Fix this by always
ACK'ing all event sources, and loop in the handler until we have all
sources quiescent.

bfcaa50270 netfilter: nf_ct_tcp: fix accepting invalid RST segments
Robert L Mathews discovered that some clients send evil TCP RST segments,
which are accepted by netfilter conntrack but discarded by the
destination. Thus the conntrack entry is destroyed but the destination
retransmits data until timeout.

The same technique, i.e. sending properly crafted RST segments, can easily
be used to bypass connlimit/connbytes based restrictions (the sample
script written by Robert can be found in the netfilter mailing list
archives).

The patch below adds a new flag and new field to struct ip_ct_tcp_state so
that checking RST segments can be made more strict and thus TCP conntrack
can catch the invalid ones: the RST segment is accepted only if its
sequence number higher than or equal to the highest ack we seen from the
other direction. (The last_ack field cannot be reused because it is used
to catch resent packets.)

4e2fd55519 gianfar: fix BUG under load after introduction of skb recycling
Since commit 0fd56bb5be ("gianfar:
Add support for skb recycling"), gianfar puts skbuffs that are in
the rx ring back onto the recycle list as-is in case there was a
receive error, but this breaks the following invariant: that all
skbuffs on the recycle list have skb->data = skb->head + NET_SKB_PAD.

The RXBUF_ALIGNMENT realignment done in gfar_new_skb() will be done
twice on skbuffs recycled in this way, causing there not to be enough
room in the skb anymore to receive a full packet, eventually leading
to an skb_over_panic from gfar_clean_rx_ring() -> skb_put().

Resetting the skb->data pointer to skb->head + NET_SKB_PAD before
putting the skb back onto the recycle list restores the mentioned
invariant, and should fix this issue.

e069c0cf7c wimax/i2400m: usb: fix device reset on autosuspend while not yet idle
When the i2400m is connected to a network, the host interface (USB)
cannot be suspended. For that to happen, the device has to have
negotiated with the basestation to put the link on IDLE state.

If the host tries to put the device in standby while it is connected
but not idle, the device resets, as the driver should not do that.

To avoid triggering that, when the USB susbsytem requires the driver
to autosuspend the device, the driver checks if the device is not yet
idle. If it is not, the request is rejected (will be retried again
later on after the autosuspend timeout). At some point the device will
enter idle and the request will succeed (unless of course, there is
network traffic, but at that point, there is no idle neither in the
link or the host interface).

1ddbcb005c net: fix rtable leak in net/ipv4/route.c
Alexander V. Lukyanov found a regression in 2.6.29 and made a complete
analysis found in http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13339
Quoted here because its a perfect one :

begin_of_quotation
 2.6.29 patch has introduced flexible route cache rebuilding. Unfortunately the
 patch has at least one critical flaw, and another problem.

 rt_intern_hash calculates rthi pointer, which is later used for new entry
 insertion. The same loop calculates cand pointer which is used to clean the
 list. If the pointers are the same, rtable leak occurs, as first the cand is
 removed then the new entry is appended to it.

 This leak leads to unregister_netdevice problem (usage count > 0).

 Another problem of the patch is that it tries to insert the entries in certain
 order, to facilitate counting of entries distinct by all but QoS parameters.
 Unfortunately, referencing an existing rtable entry moves it to list beginning,
 to speed up further lookups, so the carefully built order is destroyed.

 For the first problem the simplest patch it to set rthi=0 when rthi==cand, but
 it will also destroy the ordering.
end_of_quotation

Problematic commit is 1080d709fb
(net: implement emergency route cache rebulds when gc_elasticity is exceeded)

Trying to keep dst_entries ordered is too complex and breaks the fact that
order should depend on the frequency of use for garbage collection.

A possible fix is to make rt_intern_hash() simpler, and only makes
rt_check_expire() a litle bit smarter, being able to cope with an arbitrary
entries order. The added loop is running on cache hot data, while cpu
is prefetching next object, so should be unnoticied.

cf8da764fc net: fix length computation in rt_check_expire()
rt_check_expire() computes average and standard deviation of chain lengths,
but not correclty reset length to 0 at beginning of each chain.
This probably gives overflows for sum2 (and sum) on loaded machines instead
of meaningful results.

5078b2e32a cfg80211: fix race between core hint and driver's custom apply
Its possible for cfg80211 to have scheduled the work and for
the global workqueue to not have kicked in prior to a cfg80211
driver's regulatory hint or wiphy_apply_custom_regulatory().

Although this is very unlikely its possible and should fix
this race. When this race would happen you are expected to have
hit a null pointer dereference panic.

fbc9f97bbf iwlwifi: do not cancel delayed work inside spin_lock_irqsave
Calling cancel_delayed_work() from inside
spin_lock_irqsave, introduces a potential deadlock.

As explained by Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net>

A - lock
T - timer

phase                   CPU 1           CPU 2
---------------------------------------------

some place that calls
cancel_timer_sync()
(which is the | code)
                                        lock-irq(A)
|                                       "lock-irq"(T)
|                                       "unlock"(T)
|                                       wait(T)
                                        unlock(A)

timer softirq
                        "lock"(T)
                        run(T)
                        "unlock"(T)

irq handler
          lock(A)
          unlock(A)

Now all that again, interleaved, leading to deadlock:

                                        lock-irq(A)
                        "lock"(T)
                         run(T)
IRQ during or maybe
before run(T) -->        lock(A)
                                        "lock-irq"(T)
                                        wait(T)

We fix this by moving the call to cancel_delayed_work() into workqueue.
There are cases where the work may not actually be queued or running
at the time we are trying to cancel it, but cancel_delayed_work() is
able to deal with this.

Also cleanup iwl_set_mode related to this call. This function
(iwl_set_mode) is only called when bringing interface up and there will
thus not be any scanning done. No need to try to cancel scanning.

Fixes http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13224, which was also
reported at http://marc.info/?l=linux-wireless&m=124081921903223&w=2 .

a54be5d43a ath5k: fix exp off-by-one when computing OFDM delta slope
Commit e8f055f0c3 ("ath5k: Update reset code") subtly changed the
code that computes floating point values for the PHY3_TIMING register
such that the exponent is off by a decimal point, which can cause
problems with OFDM channel operation.

get_bitmask_order() actually returns the highest bit set plus one,
whereas the previous code wanted the highest bit set.  Instead, use
ilog2 which is what this code is really calculating.  Also check
coef_scaled to handle the (invalid) case where we need log2(0).

88f16db7a2 wext: verify buffer size for SIOCSIWENCODEEXT
Another design flaw in wireless extensions (is anybody
surprised?) in the way it handles the iw_encode_ext
structure: The structure is part of the 'extra' memory
but contains the key length explicitly, instead of it
just being the length of the extra buffer - size of
the struct and using the explicit key length only for
the get operation (which only writes it).

Therefore, we have this layout:

extra: +-------------------------+
       | struct iw_encode_ext  { |
       |     ...                 |
       |     u16 key_len;        |
       |     u8 key[0];          |
       | };                      |
       +-------------------------+
       | key material            |
       +-------------------------+

Now, all drivers I checked use ext->key_len without
checking that both key_len and the struct fit into the
extra buffer that has been copied from userspace. This
leads to a buffer overrun while reading that buffer,
depending on the driver it may be possible to specify
arbitrary key_len or it may need to be a proper length
for the key algorithm specified.

Thankfully, this is only exploitable by root, but root
can actually cause a segfault or use kernel memory as
a key (which you can even get back with siocgiwencode
or siocgiwencodeext from the key buffer).

Fix this by verifying that key_len fits into the buffer
along with struct iw_encode_ext.
