2012-03-06iwlwifi: fix station HT parametersJohannes Berg
My patch "iwlwifi: simplify auth/assoc flow" caused a serious throughput degradation due to me forgetting that there are HT settings in the station table. To restore throughput, set these parameters correctly when the sta moves to assoc state. This patch should probably be merged with the auth/assoc redesign patch for upstream. In that case, this paragraph should be added to the commit log as the third paragraph (before talking about RXON): However, as we only get the station HT data when the station moves into assoc state, we also need to program this into the device (and copy it into our database) then.

2012-03-06iwlwifi: don't pass iwl_rx_mem_buffer to upper layersJohannes Berg
struct iwl_rx_mem_buffer implementation details (DMA address, list pointers) that the upper layers don't need. Introduce iwl_rx_cmd_buffer that is passed upstream and only contains the needed data (the page). Additionally, access this data only via accessor functions, allowing us to change the implementation in the future.

2012-03-06iwlwifi: pass response packet directlyJohannes Berg

Make this more abstract with real API, passing directly the response packet in the new cmd.resp_pkt member and also introduce iwl_free_resp() to free the pages -- this way the upper layers don't have to directly touch the page implementation.

2012-03-06iwlwifi: use ieee80211_tx_statusJohannes Berg
We currently use the _irqsafe version, but that isn't recommended together with ieee80211_rx() as it can cause races. If the device reports a TX-status and RX in that order then with the current combination mac80211 might process them in the other order, which can cause issues with powersaving clients. Use ieee80211_tx_status() to avoid this race. Since we don't want to call it with locks held, process the frame queues later -- this is fine as they are on the stack.

2012-03-06iwlwifi: clean up (wowlan) suspend flowJohannes Berg
In the WoWLAN suspend flow, instead of accessing registers directly, ask the transport to do the required setup at the end of suspend. If the transport doesn't implement this, don't tell the stack we support WoWLAN. When the device suspends w/o WoWLAN, mac80211 will have stopped it already, which has already called iwl_apm_stop() via stop_hw(). Thus, it isn't necessary to call it again in pcie_suspend and we can simply do nothing there. This unifies the regular and WoWLAN suspend.

2012-03-06bridge: netfilter: don't call iptables on vlan packets if sysctl is offFlorian Westphal
When net.bridge.bridge-nf-filter-vlan-tagged is 0 (default), vlan packets arriving should not be sent to ip(6)tables by bridge netfilter. However, it turns out that we currently always send VLAN packets to netfilter, if .. a), CONFIG_VLAN_8021Q is enabled ; or b), CONFIG_VLAN_8021Q is not set but rx vlan offload is enabled on the bridge port. This is because bridge netfilter treats skb with skb->protocol == ETH_P_IP{V6} as "non-vlan packet". With rx vlan offload on or CONFIG_VLAN_8021Q=y, the vlan header has already been removed here, and we cannot rely on skb->protocol alone. Fix this by only using skb->protocol if the skb has no vlan tag, or if a vlan tag is present and filter-vlan-tagged bridge netfilter sysctl is enabled. We cannot remove the skb->protocol == htons(ETH_P_8021Q) test because the vlan tag is still around in the CONFIG_VLAN_8021Q=n && "ethtool -K $itf rxvlan off" case. reproducer: iptables -t raw -I PREROUTING -i br0 iptables -t raw -I PREROUTING -i br0.1 Then send packets to an ip address configured on br0.1 interface. Even with net.bridge.bridge-nf-filter-vlan-tagged=0, the 1st rule will match instead of the 2nd one. With this patch applied, the 2nd rule will match instead. In the non-local address case, netfilter won't be consulted after this patch unless the sysctl is switched on.

With runtime PM, if the ethernet cable is disconnected, the device is transitioned to D3 state to conserve energy. If the system is shutdown in this state, any register accesses in rtl_shutdown are dropped on the floor. As the device was programmed by .runtime_suspend() to wake on link changes, it is thus brought back up as soon as the link recovers. Resuming every suspended device through the driver core would slow things down and it is not clear how many devices really need it now. Original report and D0 transition patch by Sameer Nanda.

2012-03-06tcp: fix tcp_shift_skb_data() to not shift SACKed data below snd_unaNeal Cardwell
This commit fixes tcp_shift_skb_data() so that it does not shift SACKed data below snd_una. This fixes an issue whose symptoms exactly match reports showing tp->sacked_out going negative since 3.3.0-rc4 (see "WARNING: at net/ipv4/tcp_input.c:3418" thread on netdev). Since 2008 (832d11c5cd076abc0aa1eaf7be96c81d1a59ce41) tcp_shift_skb_data() had been shifting SACKed ranges that were below snd_una. It checked that the *end* of the skb it was about to shift from was above snd_una, but did not check that the end of the actual shifted range was above snd_una; this commit adds that check. Shifting SACKed ranges below snd_una is problematic because for such ranges tcp_sacktag_one() short-circuits: it does not declare anything as SACKed and does not increase sacked_out. Before the fixes in commits cc9a672ee522d4805495b98680f4a3db5d0a0af9 and daef52bab1fd26e24e8e9578f8fb33ba1d0cb412, shifting SACKed ranges below snd_una happened to work because tcp_shifted_skb() was always (incorrectly) passing in to tcp_sacktag_one() an skb whose end_seq tcp_shift_skb_data() had already guaranteed was beyond snd_una. Hence tcp_sacktag_one() never short-circuited and always increased tp->sacked_out in this case. After those two fixes, my testing has verified that shifting SACKed ranges below snd_una could cause tp->sacked_out to go negative with the following sequence of events: (1) tcp_shift_skb_data() sees an skb whose end_seq is beyond snd_una, then shifts a prefix of that skb that is below snd_una (2) tcp_shifted_skb() increments the packet count of the already-SACKed prev sk_buff (3) tcp_sacktag_one() sees the end of the new SACKed range is below snd_una, so it short-circuits and doesn't increase tp->sacked_out (5) tcp_clean_rtx_queue() sees the SACKed skb has been ACKed, decrements tp->sacked_out by this "inflated" pcount that was missing a matching increase in tp->sacked_out, and hence tp->sacked_out underflows to a u32 like 0xFFFFFFFF, which casted to s32 is negative. (6) this leads to the warnings seen in the recent "WARNING: at net/ipv4/tcp_input.c:3418" thread on the netdev list; e.g.: tcp_input.c:3418 WARN_ON((int)tp->sacked_out < 0); More generally, I think this bug can be tickled in some cases where two or more ACKs from the receiver are lost and then a DSACK arrives that is immediately above an existing SACKed skb in the write queue. This fix changes tcp_shift_skb_data() to abort this sequence at step (1) in the scenario above by noticing that the bytes are below snd_una and not shifting them.
