2011-05-15batman-adv: reset broadcast flood protection on errorMarek Lindner
The broadcast flood protection should be reset to its original value if the primary interface could not be retrieved. Signed-off-by: Marek Lindner <lindner_marek@yahoo.de> Signed-off-by: Sven Eckelmann <sven@narfation.org>
2011-05-15batman-adv: Add missing hardif_free_ref in forw_packet_freeSven Eckelmann
add_bcast_packet_to_list increases the refcount for if_incoming but the reference count is never decreased. The reference count must be increased for all kinds of forwarded packets which have the primary interface stored and forw_packet_free must decrease them. Also purge_outstanding_packets has to invoke forw_packet_free when a work item was really cancelled. This regression was introduced in 32ae9b221e788413ce68feaae2ca39e406211a0a.

2011-05-13ipv4: Kill spurious write to iph->daddr in ip_forward_options().David S. Miller
This code block executes when opt->srr_is_hit is set. It will be set only by ip_options_rcv_srr(). ip_options_rcv_srr() walks until it hits a matching nexthop in the SRR option addresses, and when it matches one 1) looks up the route for that nexthop and 2) on route lookup success it writes that nexthop value into iph->daddr. ip_forward_options() runs later, and again walks the SRR option addresses looking for the option matching the destination of the route stored in skb_rtable(). This route will be the same exact one looked up for the nexthop by ip_options_rcv_srr(). Therefore "rt->rt_dst == iph->daddr" must be true. All it really needs to do is record the route's source address in the matching SRR option adddress. It need not write iph->daddr again, since that has already been done by ip_options_rcv_srr() as detailed above. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2011-05-13net:set valid name before calling ndo_init()Peter Pan(潘卫平)
In commit 1c5cae815d19 (net: call dev_alloc_name from register_netdevice), a bug of bonding was involved, see example 1 and 2. In register_netdevice(), the name of net_device is not valid until dev_get_valid_name() is called. But dev->netdev_ops->ndo_init(that is bond_init) is called before dev_get_valid_name(), and it uses the invalid name of net_device. I think register_netdevice() should make sure that the name of net_device is valid before calling ndo_init(). example 1: modprobe bonding ls /proc/net/bonding/bond%d ps -eLf root 3398 2 3398 0 1 21:34 ? 00:00:00 [bond%d] example 2: modprobe bonding max_bonds=3 [ 170.100292] bonding: Ethernet Channel Bonding Driver: v3.7.1 (April 27, 2011) [ 170.101090] bonding: Warning: either miimon or arp_interval and arp_ip_target module parameters must be specified, otherwise bonding will not detect link failures! see bonding.txt for details.

2011-05-13net: ipv4: add IPPROTO_ICMP socket kindVasiliy Kulikov
This patch adds IPPROTO_ICMP socket kind. It makes it possible to send ICMP_ECHO messages and receive the corresponding ICMP_ECHOREPLY messages without any special privileges. In other words, the patch makes it possible to implement setuid-less and CAP_NET_RAW-less /bin/ping. In order not to increase the kernel's attack surface, the new functionality is disabled by default, but is enabled at bootup by supporting Linux distributions, optionally with restriction to a group or a group range (see below). Similar functionality is implemented in Mac OS X: http://www.manpagez.com/man/4/icmp/ A new ping socket is created with socket(PF_INET, SOCK_DGRAM, PROT_ICMP) Message identifiers (octets 4-5 of ICMP header) are interpreted as local ports. Addresses are stored in struct sockaddr_in. No port numbers are reserved for privileged processes, port 0 is reserved for API ("let the kernel pick a free number"). There is no notion of remote ports, remote port numbers provided by the user (e.g. in connect()) are ignored. Data sent and received include ICMP headers. This is deliberate to: 1) Avoid the need to transport headers values like sequence numbers by other means. 2) Make it easier to port existing programs using raw sockets. ICMP headers given to send() are checked and sanitized. The type must be ICMP_ECHO and the code must be zero (future extensions might relax this, see below). The id is set to the number (local port) of the socket, the checksum is always recomputed. ICMP reply packets received from the network are demultiplexed according to their id's, and are returned by recv() without any modifications. IP header information and ICMP errors of those packets may be obtained via ancillary data (IP_RECVTTL, IP_RETOPTS, and IP_RECVERR). ICMP source quenches and redirects are reported as fake errors via the error queue (IP_RECVERR); the next hop address for redirects is saved to ee_info (in network order). socket(2) is restricted to the group range specified in "/proc/sys/net/ipv4/ping_group_range". It is "1 0" by default, meaning that nobody (not even root) may create ping sockets. Setting it to "100 100" would grant permissions to the single group (to either make /sbin/ping g+s and owned by this group or to grant permissions to the "netadmins" group), "0 4294967295" would enable it for the world, "100 4294967295" would enable it for the users, but not daemons. The existing code might be (in the unlikely case anyone needs it) extended rather easily to handle other similar pairs of ICMP messages (Timestamp/Reply, Information Request/Reply, Address Mask Request/Reply etc.). Userspace ping util & patch for it: http://openwall.info/wiki/people/segoon/ping For Openwall GNU/*/Linux it was the last step on the road to the setuid-less distro. A revision of this patch (for RHEL5/OpenVZ kernels) is in use in Owl-current, such as in the 2011/03/12 LiveCD ISOs: http://mirrors.kernel.org/openwall/Owl/current/iso/ Initially this functionality was written by Pavel Kankovsky for Linux 2.4.32, but unfortunately it was never made public. All ping options (-b, -p, -Q, -R, -s, -t, -T, -M, -I), are tested with the patch. PATCH v3: - switched to flowi4. - minor changes to be consistent with raw sockets code. PATCH v2: - changed ping_debug() to pr_debug(). - removed CONFIG_IP_PING. - removed ping_seq_fops.owner field (unused for procfs). - switched to proc_net_fops_create(). - switched to %pK in seq_printf(). PATCH v1: - fixed checksumming bug. - CAP_NET_RAW may not create icmp sockets anymore. RFC v2: - minor cleanups. - introduced sysctl'able group range to restrict socket(2).

Remove all remaining references to rt->rt_{src,dst} by using dest->dst_saddr to cache saddr (used for TUN mode). For ICMP in FORWARD hook just restrict the rt_mode for NAT to disable LOCALNODE. All other modes do not allow IP_VS_RT_MODE_RDR, so we should be safe with the ICMP forwarding. Using cp->daddr as replacement for rt_dst is safe for all modes except BYPASS, even when cp->dest is NULL because it is cp->daddr that is used to assign cp->dest for sync-ed connections.

When sched_scan_stopped was called by the driver, mac80211 calls cfg80211, which in turn was calling mac80211 back with a flag "driver_initiated". This flag was used so that mac80211 would do the necessary cleanup but would not call the driver. This was enough to prevent the bounce back between the driver and mac80211, but not between mac80211 and cfg80211. To fix this, we now do the cleanup in mac80211 before calling cfg80211.

2011-05-11Bluetooth: Add support for sending connection events for LE linksVinicius Costa Gomes
We need to be able for receive events notifying that the connection was established, the connection attempt failed or that disconnection happened. Signed-off-by: Vinicius Costa Gomes <vinicius.gomes@openbossa.org> Signed-off-by: Gustavo F. Padovan <padovan@profusion.mobi>
2011-05-11cfg80211/nl80211: add interval attribute for scheduled scansLuciano Coelho
Introduce NL80211_ATTR_SCHED_SCAN_INTERVAL as a required attribute for NL80211_CMD_START_SCHED_SCAN. This value informs the driver at which intervals the scheduled scan cycles should be executed. Signed-off-by: Luciano Coelho <coelho@ti.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2011-05-11mac80211: add support for HW scheduled scanLuciano Coelho
Implement support for HW scheduled scan. The mac80211 code doesn't perform scheduled scans itself, but calls the driver to start and stop scheduled scans. This patch also creates a trace event class to be used by drv_hw_scan and the new drv_sched_scan_start and drv_sched_stop functions, in order to avoid duplicate code.

2011-05-11cfg80211/nl80211: add support for scheduled scansLuciano Coelho
Implement new functionality for scheduled scan offload. With this feature we can scan automatically at certain intervals. The idea is that the hardware can perform scan automatically and filter on desired results without waking up the host unnecessarily. Add NL80211_CMD_START_SCHED_SCAN and NL80211_CMD_STOP_SCHED_SCAN commands to the nl80211 interface. When results are available they are reported by NL80211_CMD_SCHED_SCAN_RESULTS events. The userspace is informed when the scheduled scan has stopped with a NL80211_CMD_SCHED_SCAN_STOPPED event, which can be triggered either by the driver or by a call to NL80211_CMD_STOP_SCHED_SCAN.

2011-05-11mac80211: add a couple of trace event classes to reduce duplicated codeLuciano Coelho
The functions drv_add_interface() and drv_remove_interface() print out the same values in the traces. Combine the traces of these two functions into one event class to remove some duplicate code. Also add a new class for functions drv_set_frag_threshold() and drv_set_rts_threshold().
