2012-09-14[SCSI] scsi: virtio-scsi: Fix address translation failure of HighMem pages ↵Wang Sen
used by sg list When using the commands below to write some data to a virtio-scsi LUN of the QEMU guest(32-bit) with 1G physical memory(qemu -m 1024), the qemu will crash. # sudo mkfs.ext4 /dev/sdb (/dev/sdb is the virtio-scsi LUN.) # sudo mount /dev/sdb /mnt # dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/file bs=1M count=1024 In current implementation, sg_set_buf is called to add buffers to sg list which is put into the virtqueue eventually. But if there are some HighMem pages in table->sgl you can not get virtual address by sg_virt. So, sg_virt(sg_elem) may return NULL value. This will cause QEMU exit when virtqueue_map_sg is called in QEMU because an invalid GPA is passed by virtqueue. Two solutions are discussed here: http://lkml.indiana.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/1207.3/00675.html Finally, value assignment approach was adopted because: Value assignment creates a well-formed scatterlist, because the termination marker in source sg_list has been set in blk_rq_map_sg(). The last entry of the source sg_list is just copied to the the last entry in destination list. Note that, for now, virtio_ring does not care about the form of the scatterlist and simply processes the first out_num + in_num consecutive elements of the sg[] array. I have tested the patch on my workstation. QEMU would not crash any more.

Peer link which is blocked using the "iw mesh0 station set <MAC addr> plink_action block" is previously not able to re-open using "iw mesh0 station set <MAC addr> plink_action open".

2012-09-14mac80211: handle power constraint/country IE betterJohannes Berg
Currently, mac80211 uses the power constraint IE, and reduces the regulatory max TX power by it. This can cause issues if the AP is advertising a large power constraint value matching a high TX power in its country IE, for example in this case: ... Country: US Environment: Indoor/Outdoor ... Channels [157 - 157] @ 30 dBm ... Power constraint: 13 dB ... What happened here is that our local regulatory TX power is 15 dBm, and gets reduced by 13 dB so we end up with only 2 dBm effective TX power, which is way too low. Instead, handle the country IE/power constraint IE combined and restrict our TX power to the max of the regulatory power and the maximum power advertised by the AP, in this case 17 dBm (= 30 dBm - 13 dB). Also print a message when this happens to let the user know and help us debug issues with it. Reported-by: Carl A. Cook <CACook@quantum-equities.com> Tested-by: Carl A.

2012-09-13mlx4_core: Fix integer overflows so 8TBs of memory registration worksYishai Hadas
This patch adds on the fixes done in commits 89dd86db78e0 ("mlx4_core: Allow large mlx4_buddy bitmaps") and 3de819e6b642 ("mlx4_core: Fix integer overflow issues around MTT table") so that memory registration of up to 8TB (log_num_mtt=31) finally works. It fixes integer overflows in a few mlx4_table_yyy routines in icm.c by using a u64 intermediate variable, and int/uint issues that caused table indexes to become nagive by setting some variables to be u32 instead of int.

Commit 0090def("ACPI: Add interface to register/unregister device to/from power resources") used resource_lock to protect the devices list that relies on power resource. It caused a mutex dead lock, as below acpi_power_on ---> lock resource_lock __acpi_power_on acpi_power_on_device acpi_power_get_inferred_state acpi_power_get_list_state ---> lock resource_lock This patch adds a new mutex "devices_lock" to protect the devices list and calls acpi_power_on_device in acpi_power_on, instead of __acpi_power_on, after the resource_lock is released.

2012-09-14ACPI / PM: Infer parent power state from child if unknown, v2Rafael J. Wysocki
It turns out that there are ACPI BIOSes defining device objects with _PSx and without either _PSC or _PRx. For devices corresponding to those ACPI objetcs __acpi_bus_get_power() returns ACPI_STATE_UNKNOWN and their initial power states are regarded as unknown as a result. If such a device is a parent of another power-manageable device, the child cannot be put into a low-power state through ACPI, because __acpi_bus_set_power() refuses to change power states of devices whose parents' power states are unknown. To work around this problem, observe that the ACPI power state of a device cannot be higher-power (lower-number) than the power state of its parent. Thus, if the device's _PSC method or the configuration of its power resources indicates that the device is in D0, the device's parent has to be in D0 as well. Consequently, if the parent's power state is unknown when we've just learned that its child's power state is D0, we can safely set the parent's power.state field to ACPI_STATE_D0.

The scsi netlink code confuses the netlink port id with a process id, going so far as to read NETLINK_CREDS(skb)->pid instead of the correct NETLINK_CB(skb).pid. Fortunately it does not matter because nothing registers to respond to scsi netlink requests. The only interesting use of the scsi_netlink interface is fc_host_post_vendor_event which sends a netlink multicast message. Since nothing registers to handle scsi netlink messages kill all of the registration logic, while retaining the same error handling behavior preserving the userspace visible behavior and removing all of the confused code that thought a netlink port id was a process id.

This fixes a hang on suspend due to calling wdm_suspend on the unregistered data interface. The hang should have been a NULL pointer reference had it not been for a logic error in the cdc_wdm code. commit 230718bd net: qmi_wwan: bind to both control and data interface changed qmi_wwan to use cdc_wdm as a subdriver for devices with a two-interface QMI/wwan function. The commit failed to update qmi_wwan_suspend and qmi_wwan_resume, which were written to handle either a single combined interface function, or no subdriver at all. The result was that we called into the subdriver both when the control interface was suspended and when the data interface was suspended. Calling the subdriver suspend function with an unregistered interface is not supported and will make the subdriver bug out. Signed-off-by: Bjørn Mork <bjorn@mork.no> Signed-off-by: David S.

2012-09-13net_sched: gred: actually perform idling in WRED modeDavid Ward
gred_dequeue() and gred_drop() do not seem to get called when the queue is empty, meaning that we never start idling while in WRED mode. And since qidlestart is not stored by gred_store_wred_set(), we would never stop idling while in WRED mode if we ever started. This messes up the average queue size calculation that influences packet marking/dropping behavior. Now, we start WRED mode idling as we are removing the last packet from the queue. Also we now actually stop WRED mode idling when we are enqueuing a packet.

2012-09-13bnx2x: Link Flap AvoidanceYaniv Rosner
Various flows in the bnx2x driver cause a link-flap - if the link is up, it would be toggled down (after a mac/phy reset) and then taken back up. In many of these cases, there is no need to do cause such a flap, as the associated flows should not actually affect the link. This patch adds the 'Link Flap Avoidance' mechanism, which allows the driver to better determine if a given flow requires a link change, and thus minimize the number of link flaps caused by the driver.

2012-09-13bnx2x: link code refactoringYaniv Rosner
Separate the interrupt setting part of each external PHY to a specific function. This allows calling the interrupt setting in case of link-flap avoidance, since some link owners may not enable the interrupt on their own.

2012-09-13mISDN: Fix wrong usage of flush_work_sync while holding locksKarsten Keil
It is a bad idea to hold a spinlock and call flush_work_sync. Move the workqueue cleanup outside the spinlock and use cancel_work_sync, on closing the channel this seems to be the more correct function. Remove the never used and constant return value of mISDN_freebchannel. Signed-off-by: Karsten Keil <keil@b1-systems.de> Cc: <stable@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Pablo Neira Ayuso says: ==================== The following patchset contains four Netfilter updates, mostly targeting to fix issues added with IPv6 NAT, and one little IPVS update for net-next: * Remove unneeded conditional free of skb in nfnetlink_queue, from Wei Yongjun. * One semantic path from coccinelle detected the use of list_del + INIT_LIST_HEAD, instead of list_del_init, again from Wei Yongjun. * Fix out-of-bound memory access in the NAT address selection, from Florian Westphal. This was introduced with the IPv6 NAT patches. * Two fixes for crashes that were introduced in the recently merged IPv6 NAT support, from myself. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.
