86e8cf98de nl80211: use small state buffer for wiphy_dump
Avoid parsing the original dump message again and again by
allocating a small state struct that is used by the functions
involved in the dump, storing this struct in cb->args[0].
This reduces the memory allocation size as well.

3a5a423bb9 nl80211: fix attrbuf access race by allocating a separate one
Since my commit 3713b4e364 ("nl80211: allow splitting wiphy
information in dumps"), nl80211_dump_wiphy() uses the global
nl80211_fam.attrbuf for parsing the incoming data. This wouldn't
be a problem if it only did so on the first dump iteration which
is locked against other commands in generic netlink, but due to
space constraints in cb->args (the needed state doesn't fit) I
decided to always parse the original message. That's racy though
since nl80211_fam.attrbuf could be used by some other parsing in
generic netlink concurrently.

For now, fix this by allocating a separate parse buffer (it's a
bit too big for the stack, currently 1448 bytes on 64-bit). For
-next, I'll change the code to parse into the global buffer in
the first round only and then allocate a smaller buffer to keep
the data in cb->args.

The problem is that we're ending up in __rpc_lookup_create_exclusive
with a negative dentry that already has d_op set. A little debugging
has shown that when we hit this, the d_ops are already set to
simple_dentry_operations.

I believe that what's happening is that during a mount, idmapd is racing
in and doing a lookup of /var/lib/nfs/rpc_pipefs/nfs/clnt???/idmap.
Before that dentry reference is released, the kernel races in to create
that file and finds the new negative dentry, which already has the
d_op set.

This patch just avoids setting the d_op if it's already set.
simple_dentry_operations and rpc_dentry_operations are functionally
equivalent so it shouldn't matter which one it's set to.

52874a5e39 Revert "mac80211: in IBSS use the Auth frame to trigger STA reinsertion"
This reverts commit 6d810f10325522cfcf498dc6d64b9f96e1f5153f

In this way an IBSS station will not use the AUTH messages
to trigger a state reinitialisation anymore.

The behaviour was racy and was not working properly.
It has been introduced to help wpa_supplicant to support
IBSS/RSN, however all the logic is now getting moved into
wpa_s itself which will also be in charge of handling the
AUTH messages thanks to the mgmt frame registration.

If userspace does not register for receiving AUTH frames
then mac80211 will still reply by itself.

At the same time, the auth frame registration counter can be
removed since it is not needed anymore.

Fixes yet another deadlock on calling sta_info_flush()

could just drop the sdata_lock() around the

788dfcacac vlan: restore ethtool ABI to control VLAN hardware acceleration
As part of the push to add 802.1ad server provider tagging support to the
kernel the VLAN features flags were renamed. Unfortunately the kernel name
for the VLAN hardware acceleration features that the kernel shows user space
was included in the rename, which broke ethtool (txvlan and rxvlan options
do not work). This patch restores the original names, i.e. the original ABI.
If we wanted to make clear to users that we are refering to CTAGs we can
always change ethtool's short_name and long_name for these features (for
example something along the lines of txvlan -> txvlan-ctag, tx-vlan-offload ->
tx-vlan-ctag-offload).

is inconsistent in the SCTP code anyway and it was introduced in the
initial implementation of SCTP in 2.5. We have a regression suite in

this macro anymore. The kernel test suite for 2.5 is incompatible with
the current SCTP code anyway.

So simply Remove it, to be more consistent with the rest of the kernel
code.

c5b248dd05 Merge branch 'for-davem' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linville/wireless into wireless
John W. Linville says:

====================
This will probably be the last batch of wireless fixes intended
for 3.10.  Many of these are one- or two-liners, and a couple of
others are mostly relocating existing code to avoid races or to
limit the code to effecting specific hardware, etc.

The mac80211 fixes have a couple of exceptions to the above.
Regarding those, Johannes says:

"Following davem's complaint about my patch, here's a new pull request
w/o the patch he was complaining about, but instead with the const
fix rolled into the fix.

I have a fix for radar detection, one for rate control and a workaround
for broken HT APs which is a regression fix because we didn't rely
on them to be correct before."

Johannes also sends some iwlwifi fixes:

"I picked up Nikolay's patch for the chain noise calibration bug
that seems to have been there forever, a fix from Emmanuel for
setting TX flags on BAR frames and a fix of my own to avoid printing
request_module() errors if the kernel isn't even modular. We also
have our own version of Stanislaw's fix for rate control."

Along with those...

Anderson Lizardo fixes a Bluetooth memory corruption bug when an MTU
value is set to too small of a value.

Arend van Spriel sends a revised brcmsmac bug that fixes a regression
caused by a bad return value in an earlier patch.  He also sends a
brcmfmac fix to avoid an oops when loading the driver at boot.

Daniel Drake fixes a race condition in btmrvl that causes hangs on
suspend for OLPC hardware.

Johan Hedberg adds a check to avoid sending a
HCI_Delete_Stored_Link_Key command to devices that don't support them,
avoiding some scary looking log spam.

Stanislaw Gruszka gives us a fix for iwlegacy to be able to use rates
higher than 1Mb/s on older wireless networks.  He also sends an rt2x00
fix to reinstate older tx power handling behavior for some devices
that didn't work well with the current code.

796c75d0d3 tipc: enhance priority of link protocol packet
pfifo_fast is set as default traffic class queueing discipline. This
queue has three so called "bands". Within each band, FIFO rules apply.
However, as long as there are packets waiting in band 0, band 1 won't
be processed.

Now all kind of TIPC type packet priorities are never set, that is,
their priorities are 0, so they are mapped to band 1 of pfifo_fast
qdisc. But, especially during link congestion, if link protocol packet
can be sent out as earlier as possible than other type of packets so
that protocol packet can arrive at peer endpoint in time, the peer
will timely reset its link timeout timer to keep the link alive.
So enhancing the priority of link protocol packets can meet the
specific demand to avoid unnecessary link reset due to a transient
link congestion.

longer needed, and so we remove that one too.

7d0ab17b74 tipc: convert configuration server to use new server facility
As the new socket-based TIPC server infrastructure has been
introduced, we can now convert the configuration server to use
it.  Then we can take future steps to simplify the configuration
server locking policy.

Some minor reordering of initialization is done, due to the
dependency on having tipc_socket_init completed.

13a2e89873 tipc: convert topology server to use new server facility
As the new TIPC server infrastructure has been introduced, we can
now convert the TIPC topology server to it.  We get two benefits
from doing this:

1) It simplifies the topology server locking policy.  In the
original locking policy, we placed one spin lock pointer in the
tipc_subscriber structure to reuse the lock of the subscriber's
server port, controlling access to members of tipc_subscriber
instance.  That is, we only used one lock to ensure both
tipc_port and tipc_subscriber members were safely accessed.

Now we introduce another spin lock for tipc_subscriber structure
only protecting themselves, to get a finer granularity locking
policy.  Moreover, the change will allow us to make the topology
server code more readable and maintainable.

2) It fixes a bug where sent subscription events may be lost when
the topology port is congested.  Using the new service, the
topology server now queues sent events into an outgoing buffer,
and then wakes up a sender process which has been blocked in
workqueue context.  The process will keep picking events from the
buffer and send them to their respective subscribers, using the
kernel socket interface, until the buffer is empty. Even if the
socket is congested during transmission there is no risk that
events may be dropped, since the sender process may block when
needed.

Some minor reordering of initialization is done, since we now
have a scenario where the topology server must be started after
socket initialization has taken place, as the former depends
on the latter.  And overall, we see a simplification of the
TIPC subscriber code in making this changeover.

c5fa7b3cf3 tipc: introduce new TIPC server infrastructure
TIPC has two internal servers, one providing a subscription
service for topology events, and another providing the
configuration interface. These servers have previously been running
in BH context, accessing the TIPC-port (aka native) API directly.
Apart from these servers, even the TIPC socket implementation is
partially built on this API.

As this API may simultaneously be called via different paths and in
different contexts, a complex and costly lock policiy is required
in order to protect TIPC internal resources.

To eliminate the need for this complex lock policiy, we introduce
a new, generic service API that uses kernel sockets for message
passing instead of the native API. Once the toplogy and configuration
servers are converted to use this new service, all code pertaining
to the native API can be removed. This entails a significant
reduction in code amount and complexity, and opens up for a complete
rework of the locking policy in TIPC.

The new service also solves another problem:

As the current topology server works in BH context, it cannot easily
be blocked when sending of events fails due to congestion. In such
cases events may have to be silently dropped, something that is
unacceptable. Therefore, the new service keeps a dedicated outbound
queue receiving messages from BH context. Once messages are
inserted into this queue, we will immediately schedule a work from a
special workqueue. This way, messages/events from the topology server
are in reality sent in process context, and the server can block
if necessary.

Analogously, there is a new workqueue for receiving messages. Once a
notification about an arriving message is received in BH context, we
schedule a work from the receive workqueue to do the job of
receiving the message in process context.

As both sending and receive messages are now finished in processes,
subscribed events cannot be dropped any more.

As of this commit, this new server infrastructure is built, but
not actually yet called by the existing TIPC code, but since the
conversion changes required in order to use it are significant,
the addition is kept here as a separate commit.

5d21cb70db tipc: allow implicit connect for stream sockets
TIPC's implied connect feature, aka piggyback connect, allows
applications to save one syscall and all SYN/SYN-ACK signalling
overhead when setting up a connection.  Until now, this has only
been supported for SEQPACKET sockets.  Here, we make it possible
to use this feature even with stream sockets.

At the connecting side, the connection is completed when the
first data message arrives from the accepting peer.  This means
that we must allow the connecting user to call blocking recv()
before the socket has reached state SS_CONNECTED.  So we must must
relax the state machine check at recv_stream(), and allow the
recv() call even if socket is in state SS_CONNECTING.

cc79dd1ba9 tipc: change socket buffer overflow control to respect sk_rcvbuf
As per feedback from the netdev community, we change the buffer
overflow protection algorithm in receiving sockets so that it
always respects the nominal upper limit set in sk_rcvbuf.

Instead of scaling up from a small sk_rcvbuf value, which leads to
violation of the configured sk_rcvbuf limit, we now calculate the
weighted per-message limit by scaling down from a much bigger value,
still in the same field, according to the importance priority of the
received message.

To allow for administrative tunability of the socket receive buffer
size, we create a tipc_rmem sysctl variable to allow the user to
configure an even bigger value via sysctl command.  It is a size of
three (min/default/max) to be consistent with things like tcp_rmem.

By default, the value initialized in tipc_rmem[1] is equal to the
receive socket size needed by a TIPC_CRITICAL_IMPORTANCE message.
This value is also set as the default value of sk_rcvbuf.

2e0c9e7911 net: sctp: sctp_association_init: put refs in reverse order
In case we need to bail out for whatever reason during assoc
init, we call sctp_endpoint_put() and then sock_put(), however,
we've hold both refs in reverse, non-symmetric order, so first
sctp_endpoint_hold() and then sock_hold().

Reverse this, so that in an error case we have sock_put() and then
sctp_endpoint_put(). Actually shouldn't matter too much, since both
cleanup paths do the right thing, but that way, it is more consistent
with the rest of the code.

sctp_seq_dump_local_addrs(), better change the order of commands to
prevent a future bug to happen. Although we first add SCTP_CMD_NEW_ASOC
and then set the SCTP_CMD_INIT_CHOOSE_TRANSPORT, it is okay for now,
since this primitive is only called by sctp_connect() or sctp_sendmsg()
with sctp_assoc_add_peer() set first. However, lets do this precaution
and first set the transport and then add it to the association hashlist
to prevent in future something to possibly triggering this.

This clearly states a BUG somewhere in the SCTP code as e.g. fixed once
in f28156335 ("sctp: Use correct sideffect command in duplicate cookie
handling"). If this ever happens, throw a trace in the sideeffect engine
where assocs clearly must have a primary_path assigned.

When in sctp_seq_dump_local_addrs() also throw a WARN and bail out since
we do not need to panic for printing this one asterisk. Also, it will
avoid the not so obvious case when primary != NULL test passes and at a
later point in time triggering a NULL ptr dereference caused by primary.
While at it, also fix up the white space.
