2013-10-01regulatory: enable channels 52-64 and 100-144 for world roamingJohannes Berg
If allowed in a country, these channels typically require DFS so mark them as such. Channel 144 is a bit special, it's coming into use now to allow more VHT 80 channels, but world roaming with passive scanning is acceptable anyway. It seems fairly unlikely that it'll be used as the control channel for a VHT AP, but it needs to be present to allow a full VHT connection to an AP that uses it as one of the secondary channels. Also enable VHT 160 on these channels, and also for channels 36-48 to be able to use VHT 160 there. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

2013-10-01mac80211: support reporting A-MSDU subframes individuallyMichal Kazior
Some devices may not be able to report A-MSDUs in single buffers. Drivers for such devices were forced to re-assemble A-MSDUs which would then be eventually disassembled by mac80211. This could lead to CPU cache thrashing and poor performance. Since A-MSDU has a single sequence number all subframes share it. This was in conflict with retransmission/duplication recovery (IEEE802.11-2012: 9.3.2.10). Patch introduces a new flag that is meant to be set for all individually reported A-MSDU subframes except the last one. This ensures the last_seq_ctrl is updated after the last subframe is processed. If an A-MSDU is actually a duplicate transmission all reported subframes will be properly discarded.

2013-09-26mac80211: add ieee80211_iterate_active_interfaces_rtnl()Johannes Berg
If it is needed to disconnect multiple virtual interfaces after (WoWLAN-) suspend, the most obvious approach would be to iterate all interfaces by calling ieee80211_iterate_active_interfaces() and then call ieee80211_resume_disconnect() for each one. This is what the iwlmvm driver does. Unfortunately, this causes a locking dependency from mac80211's iflist_mtx to the key_mtx. This is problematic as the former is intentionally never held while calling any driver operation to allow drivers to iterate with their own locks held. The key_mtx is held while installing a key into the driver though, so this new lock dependency means drivers implementing the logic above can no longer hold their own lock while iterating. To fix this, add a new ieee80211_iterate_active_interfaces_rtnl() function that iterates while the RTNL is already held. This is true during suspend/resume, so that then the locking dependency isn't introduced. While at it, also refactor the various interface iterators and keep only a single implementation called by the various cases. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

2013-09-11kernel-wide: fix missing validations on __get/__put/__copy_to/__copy_from_user()Mathieu Desnoyers
I found the following pattern that leads in to interesting findings: grep -r "ret.*|=.*__put_user" * grep -r "ret.*|=.*__get_user" * grep -r "ret.*|=.*__copy" * The __put_user() calls in compat_ioctl.c, ptrace compat, signal compat, since those appear in compat code, we could probably expect the kernel addresses not to be reachable in the lower 32-bit range, so I think they might not be exploitable. For the "__get_user" cases, I don't think those are exploitable: the worse that can happen is that the kernel will copy kernel memory into in-kernel buffers, and will fail immediately afterward. The alpha csum_partial_copy_from_user() seems to be missing the access_ok() check entirely. The fix is inspired from x86. This could lead to information leak on alpha. I also noticed that many architectures map csum_partial_copy_from_user() to csum_partial_copy_generic(), but I wonder if the latter is performing the access checks on every architectures.

2013-09-11ipv6: don't call fib6_run_gc() until routing is readyMichal Kubeček
When loading the ipv6 module, ndisc_init() is called before ip6_route_init(). As the former registers a handler calling fib6_run_gc(), this opens a window to run the garbage collector before necessary data structures are initialized. If a network device is initialized in this window, adding MAC address to it triggers a NETDEV_CHANGEADDR event, leading to a crash in fib6_clean_all(). Take the event handler registration out of ndisc_init() into a separate function ndisc_late_init() and move it after ip6_route_init().

2013-09-11net: sctp: fix smatch warning in sctp_send_asconf_del_ipDaniel Borkmann
This was originally reported in [1] and posted by Neil Horman [2], he said: Fix up a missed null pointer check in the asconf code. If we don't find a local address, but we pass in an address length of more than 1, we may dereference a NULL laddr pointer. Currently this can't happen, as the only users of the function pass in the value 1 as the addrcnt parameter, but its not hot path, and it doesn't hurt to check for NULL should that ever be the case. The callpath from sctp_asconf_mgmt() looks okay. But this could be triggered from sctp_setsockopt_bindx() call with SCTP_BINDX_REM_ADDR and addrcnt > 1 while passing all possible addresses from the bind list to SCTP_BINDX_REM_ADDR so that we do *not* find a single address in the association's bind address list that is not in the packed array of addresses. If this happens when we have an established association with ASCONF-capable peers, then we could get a NULL pointer dereference as we only check for laddr == NULL && addrcnt == 1 and call later sctp_make_asconf_update_ip() with NULL laddr. BUT: this actually won't happen as sctp_bindx_rem() will catch such a case and return with an error earlier. As this is incredably unintuitive and error prone, add a check to catch at least future bugs here. As Neil says, its not hot path. Introduced by 8a07eb0a5 ("sctp: Add ASCONF operation on the single-homed host").

2013-09-11net: fib: fib6_add: fix potential NULL pointer dereferenceDaniel Borkmann
When the kernel is compiled with CONFIG_IPV6_SUBTREES, and we return with an error in fn = fib6_add_1(), then error codes are encoded into the return pointer e.g. ERR_PTR(-ENOENT). In such an error case, we write the error code into err and jump to out, hence enter the if(err) condition. Now, if CONFIG_IPV6_SUBTREES is enabled, we check for: if (pn != fn && pn->leaf == rt) ... if (pn != fn && !pn->leaf && !(pn->fn_flags & RTN_RTINFO)) ... Since pn is NULL and fn is f.e. ERR_PTR(-ENOENT), then pn != fn evaluates to true and causes a NULL-pointer dereference on further checks on pn. Fix it, by setting both NULL in error case, so that pn != fn already evaluates to false and no further dereference takes place. This was first correctly implemented in 4a287eba2 ("IPv6 routing, NLM_F_* flag support: REPLACE and EXCL flags support, warn about missing CREATE flag"), but the bug got later on introduced by 188c517a0 ("ipv6: return errno pointers consistently for fib6_add_1()").

2013-09-11net: ovs: flow: fix potential illegal memory access in __parse_flow_nlattrsDaniel Borkmann
In function __parse_flow_nlattrs(), we check for condition (type > OVS_KEY_ATTR_MAX) and if true, print an error, but we do not return from this function as in other checks. It seems this has been forgotten, as otherwise, we could access beyond the memory of ovs_key_lens, which is of ovs_key_lens[OVS_KEY_ATTR_MAX + 1]. Hence, a maliciously prepared nla_type from user space could access beyond this upper limit. Introduced by 03f0d916a ("openvswitch: Mega flow implementation").

2013-09-06tcp: properly increase rcv_ssthresh for ofo packetsEric Dumazet
TCP receive window handling is multi staged. A socket has a memory budget, static or dynamic, in sk_rcvbuf. Because we do not really know how this memory budget translates to a TCP window (payload), TCP announces a small initial window (about 20 MSS). When a packet is received, we increase TCP rcv_win depending on the payload/truesize ratio of this packet. Good citizen packets give a hint that it's reasonable to have rcv_win = sk_rcvbuf/2 This heuristic takes place in tcp_grow_window() Problem is : We currently call tcp_grow_window() only for in-order packets. This means that reorders or packet losses stop proper grow of rcv_win, and senders are unable to benefit from fast recovery, or proper reordering level detection. Really, a packet being stored in OFO queue is not a bad citizen. It should be part of the game as in-order packets. In our traces, we very often see sender is limited by linux small receive windows, even if linux hosts use autotuning (DRS) and should allow rcv_win to grow to ~3MB.

2013-09-06tcp: fix no cwnd growth after timeoutYuchung Cheng
In commit 0f7cc9a3 "tcp: increase throughput when reordering is high", it only allows cwnd to increase in Open state. This mistakenly disables slow start after timeout (CA_Loss). Moreover cwnd won't grow if the state moves from Disorder to Open later in tcp_fastretrans_alert(). Therefore the correct logic should be to allow cwnd to grow as long as the data is received in order in Open, Loss, or even Disorder state.
