This patch adds rx stats incrementation when the monitor interface recevied a frame. Signed-off-by: Alexander Aring <alex.aring@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Marcel Holtmann <marcel@holtmann.org>

This patch removes netif_rx_ni call. Instead we call netif_receive_skb, we can do that since commit c5c47e67bcd24638a059b1b5e9ec18c95f8634ca ("mac802154: rx: use tasklet instead workqueue"). Signed-off-by: Alexander Aring <alex.aring@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Marcel Holtmann <marcel@holtmann.org>

2014-10-29mac802154: rx: add software checksum filtering checkAlexander Aring
This patch adds a new hardware flag which indicate that the transceiver doesn't support check for bad checksum via hardware. Also add a handling of this while receive. Signed-off-by: Alexander Aring <alex.aring@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Marcel Holtmann <marcel@holtmann.org>
2014-10-29mac802154: rx: simplify crc receive handlingAlexander Aring
This patch change the actual crc handling while receive. Currently the IEEE802154_HW_RX_OMIT_CKSUM flag is used to filter a frame with a bad crc. This patch changes the behaviour of IEEE802154_HW_RX_OMIT_CKSUM to add a crc while receiving for the monitor interface. After monitor receiving we remove the crc for frame parsing. This affect the driver layer because all drivers sets IEEE802154_HW_RX_OMIT_CKSUM and deliver without checksum.

2014-10-29mac802154: separate omit tx/rx flagsAlexander Aring
This patch splits the IEEE802154_HW_OMIT_CKSUM hardware flag into IEEE802154_HW_TX_OMIT_CKSUM and IEEE802154_HW_RX_OMIT_CKSUM. This is useful to deliver the received crc from the driver layer to the monitor interface. At the moment we can't do that without change the xmit handling. The received checksum should be visible in monitor mode only. Signed-off-by: Alexander Aring <alex.aring@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Marcel Holtmann <marcel@holtmann.org>

2014-10-29inet: frags: remove the WARN_ON from inet_evict_bucketNikolay Aleksandrov
The WARN_ON in inet_evict_bucket can be triggered by a valid case: inet_frag_kill and inet_evict_bucket can be running in parallel on the same queue which means that there has been at least one more ref added by a previous inet_frag_find call, but inet_frag_kill can delete the timer before inet_evict_bucket which will cause the WARN_ON() there to trigger since we'll have refcnt!=1. Now, this case is valid because the queue is being "killed" for some reason (removed from the chain list and its timer deleted) so it will get destroyed in the end by one of the inet_frag_put() calls which reaches 0 i.e. refcnt is still valid.

2014-10-29inet: frags: fix a race between inet_evict_bucket and inet_frag_killNikolay Aleksandrov
When the evictor is running it adds some chosen frags to a local list to be evicted once the chain lock has been released but at the same time the *frag_queue can be running for some of the same queues and it may call inet_frag_kill which will wait on the chain lock and will then delete the queue from the wrong list since it was added in the eviction one. The fix is simple - check if the queue has the evict flag set under the chain lock before deleting it, this is safe because the evict flag is set only under that lock and having the flag set also means that the queue has been detached from the chain list, so no need to delete it again. An important note to make is that we're safe w.r.t refcnt because inet_frag_kill and inet_evict_bucket will sync on the del_timer operation where only one of the two can succeed (or if the timer is executing - none of them), the cases are: 1. inet_frag_kill succeeds in del_timer - then the timer ref is removed, but inet_evict_bucket will not add this queue to its expire list but will restart eviction in that chain 2. inet_evict_bucket succeeds in del_timer - then the timer ref is kept until the evictor "expires" the queue, but inet_frag_kill will remove the initial ref and will set INET_FRAG_COMPLETE which will make the frag_expire fn just to remove its ref. In the end all of the queue users will do an inet_frag_put and the one that reaches 0 will free it. The refcount balance should be okay.

2014-10-29net: ipv6: Add a sysctl to make optimistic addresses useful candidatesErik Kline
Add a sysctl that causes an interface's optimistic addresses to be considered equivalent to other non-deprecated addresses for source address selection purposes. Preferred addresses will still take precedence over optimistic addresses, subject to other ranking in the source address selection algorithm. This is useful where different interfaces are connected to different networks from different ISPs (e.g., a cell network and a home wifi network). The current behaviour complies with RFC 3484/6724, and it makes sense if the host has only one interface, or has multiple interfaces on the same network (same or cooperating administrative domain(s), but not in the multiple distinct networks case. For example, if a mobile device has an IPv6 address on an LTE network and then connects to IPv6-enabled wifi, while the wifi IPv6 address is undergoing DAD, IPv6 connections will try use the wifi default route with the LTE IPv6 address, and will get stuck until they time out. Also, because optimistic nodes can receive frames, issue an RTM_NEWADDR as soon as DAD starts (with the IFA_F_OPTIMSTIC flag appropriately set). A second RTM_NEWADDR is sent if DAD completes (the address flags have changed), otherwise an RTM_DELADDR is sent. Also: add an entry in ip-sysctl.txt for optimistic_dad.

2014-10-29tcp: allow for bigger reordering levelEric Dumazet
While testing upcoming Yaogong patch (converting out of order queue into an RB tree), I hit the max reordering level of linux TCP stack. Reordering level was limited to 127 for no good reason, and some network setups [1] can easily reach this limit and get limited throughput. Allow a new max limit of 300, and add a sysctl to allow admins to even allow bigger (or lower) values if needed.

2014-10-29mac80211: use secondary channel offset IE also beacons during CSALuciano Coelho
If we are switching from an HT40+ to an HT40- channel (or vice-versa), we need the secondary channel offset IE to specify what is the post-CSA offset to be used. This applies both to beacons and to probe responses. In ieee80211_parse_ch_switch_ie() we were ignoring this IE from beacons and using the *current* HT information IE instead. This was causing us to use the same offset as before the switch. Fix that by using the secondary channel offset IE also for beacons and don't ever use the pre-switch offset. Additionally, remove the "beacon" argument from ieee80211_parse_ch_switch_ie(), since it's not needed anymore.

2014-10-28Bluetooth: Fix check for direct advertisingJohan Hedberg
These days we allow simultaneous LE scanning and advertising. Checking for whether advertising is enabled or not is therefore not a reliable way to determine whether directed advertising was used to trigger the connection creation.

It was as pointed out by Thomas Graf that this helper would be best off living in netlink.h.
