d8190dff01 bonding: set device in RLB ARP packet handler
After:

commit 6146b1a4da
Author: Jay Vosburgh <fubar@us.ibm.com>
Date:   Tue Nov 4 17:51:15 2008 -0800

    bonding: Fix ALB mode to balance traffic on VLANs

the dev field in the RLB ARP packet handler was set to NULL to wildcard
and accommodate balancing VLANs on top of bonds.

This has the side-effect of the packet handler being called against
other, non RLB-enabled bonds, and a kernel oops results when it tries to
dereference rx_hashtbl in rlb_update_entry_from_arp(), which won't be
set for those bonds, e.g. active-backup.

With the __netif_receive_skb() changes from:

commit 1f3c8804ac
Author: Andy Gospodarek <andy@greyhouse.net>
Date:   Mon Dec 14 10:48:58 2009 +0000

    bonding: allow arp_ip_targets on separate vlans to use arp validation

frames received on VLANs correctly make their way to the bond's handler,
so we no longer need to wildcard the device.

The oops can be reproduced by:

modprobe bonding

echo active-backup > /sys/class/net/bond0/bonding/mode
echo 100 > /sys/class/net/bond0/bonding/miimon
ifconfig bond0 xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx netmask xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
echo +eth0 > /sys/class/net/bond0/bonding/slaves
echo +eth1 > /sys/class/net/bond0/bonding/slaves

echo +bond1 > /sys/class/net/bonding_masters
echo balance-alb > /sys/class/net/bond1/bonding/mode
echo 100 > /sys/class/net/bond1/bonding/miimon
ifconfig bond1 xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx netmask xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
echo +eth2 > /sys/class/net/bond1/bonding/slaves
echo +eth3 > /sys/class/net/bond1/bonding/slaves

Pass some traffic on bond0.  Boom.

[ Tested, behaves as advertised.  I do not believe a test of the bonding
mode is necessary, as there is no race between the packet handler and
the bonding mode changing (the mode can only change when the device is
closed).  Also updated the log message to include the reproduction and
full commit ids.  -J ]

344e0f623c 3c59x: Fix call to mdio_sync() with the wrong argument
commit a095cfc40e
"3c59x: Specify window explicitly for access to windowed registers"
changed the first parameter to mdio_sync(), from a pointer to the
register mapping, to a pointer to the vortex_private structure,
and changed all but one of the call sites.  Fix that last one.

vpd_data[] is allocated as kmalloc(256, GFP_KERNEL), so if cnt = 255
then (cnt + 3) overflows 256. memset() is executed without checking.
vpd_data[cnt+2] must be less than 256-cnt-2 as the latter is number of
vpd_data[] elements to copy.

Do not fill with zero the beginning of nic->serial_num as it will
be filled with vpd_data[].

704da534af iwlagn: fix firmware loading TLV error path
gcc complains about the firmware loading:

iwl-agn.c: In function ‘iwlagn_load_firmware’:
iwl-agn.c:1860: warning: ‘tlv_len’ may be used uninitialized in this function
iwl-agn.c:1861: warning: ‘tlv_type’ may be used uninitialized in this function
iwl-agn.c:1862: warning: ‘tlv_data’ may be used uninitialized in this function

This is almost correct but we do do break out of the TLV
parsing loop when setting ret. However, the code is hard
to follow, and clearly even the compiler is having issues
with it too.

Additionally, however, the current code is wrong. If there
is a TLV length check error, the code will report
	invalid TLV after parsing: ...
because "len" will still be non-zero as we broke out of
the loop.

So to remove the warning and fix that issue, make the code
easier to read by doing length checking with an error label.
As a result, we can completely remove the "ret" variable.

Also, while at it, remove the "fixed_tlv_size" variable
since each TLV type has its own specified length, it just
happens that we have only variable length, flags (0 length)
and u32 TLVs right now. It should still be checked with more
explicit length checks to make it easier to understand.

03dc2f4c52 bonding: don't lock when copying/clearing VLAN list on slave
When copying VLAN information to or removing from a slave
during slave addition or removal, the bonding code currently holds
the bond->lock for write to prevent concurrent modification of the
vlan_list / vlgrp.

	This is unnecessary, as all of these operations occur under
RTNL.  Holding the bond->lock also caused might_sleep issues for
some drivers' ndo_vlan_* functions.  This patch removes the extra
locking.

f35188faa0 bonding: change test for presence of VLANs
After commit ad1afb0039
("vlan_dev: VLAN 0 should be treated as "no vlan tag" (802.1p packet)")
it is now regular practice for a VLAN "add vid" for VLAN 0 to
arrive prior to any VLAN registration or creation of a vlan_group.

	This patch updates the bonding code that tests for the presence
of VLANs configured above bonding.  The new logic tests for bond->vlgrp
to determine if a registration has occured, instead of testing that
bonding's internal vlan_list is empty.

	The old code would panic when vlan_list was not empty, but
vlgrp was still NULL (because only an "add vid" for VLAN 0 had occured).

	Bonding still adds VLAN 0 to its internal list so that 802.1p
frames are handled correctly on transmit when non-VLAN accelerated
slaves are members of the bond.  The test against bond->vlan_list
remains in bond_dev_queue_xmit for this reason.

	Modification to the bond->vlgrp now occurs under lock (in
addition to RTNL), because not all inspections of it occur under RTNL.

	Additionally, because 8021q will never issue a "kill vid" for
VLAN 0, there is now logic in bond_uninit to release any remaining
entries from vlan_list.

00c5a9834b net: Fix corruption of skb csum field in pskb_expand_head() of net/core/skbuff.c
Make pskb_expand_head() check ip_summed to make sure csum_start is really
csum_start and not csum before adjusting it.

This fixes a bug I encountered using a Sun Quad-Fast Ethernet card and VLANs.
On my configuration, the sunhme driver produces skbs with differing amounts
of headroom on receive depending on the packet size.  See line 2030 of
drivers/net/sunhme.c; packets smaller than RX_COPY_THRESHOLD have 52 bytes
of headroom but packets larger than that cutoff have only 20 bytes.

When these packets reach the VLAN driver, vlan_check_reorder_header()
calls skb_cow(), which, if the packet has less than NET_SKB_PAD (== 32) bytes
of headroom, uses pskb_expand_head() to make more.

Then, pskb_expand_head() needs to adjust a lot of offsets into the skb,
including csum_start.  Since csum_start is a union with csum, if the packet
has a valid csum value this will corrupt it, which was the effect I observed.
The sunhme hardware computes receive checksums, so the skbs would be created
by the driver with ip_summed == CHECKSUM_COMPLETE and a valid csum field, and
then pskb_expand_head() would corrupt the csum field, leading to an "hw csum
error" message later on, for example in icmp_rcv() for pings larger than the
sunhme RX_COPY_THRESHOLD.

On the basis of the comment at the beginning of include/linux/skbuff.h,
I believe that the csum_start skb field is only meaningful if ip_csummed is
CSUM_PARTIAL, so this patch makes pskb_expand_head() adjust it only in that
case to avoid corrupting a valid csum value.

Please see my more in-depth disucssion of tracking down this bug for
more details if you like:

8a35747a5d macvtap: Limit packet queue length
Mark Wagner reported OOM symptoms when sending UDP traffic over
a macvtap link to a kvm receiver.

This appears to be caused by the fact that macvtap packet queues
are unlimited in length.  This means that if the receiver can't
keep up with the rate of flow, then we will hit OOM. Of course
it gets worse if the OOM killer then decides to kill the receiver.

This patch imposes a cap on the packet queue length, in the same
way as the tuntap driver, using the device TX queue length.

Please note that macvtap currently has no way of giving congestion
notification, that means the software device TX queue cannot be
used and packets will always be dropped once the macvtap driver
queue fills up.

This shouldn't be a great problem for the scenario where macvtap
is used to feed a kvm receiver, as the traffic is most likely
external in origin so congestion notification can't be applied
anyway.

Of course, if anybody decides to complain about guest-to-guest
UDP packet loss down the track, then we may have to revisit this.

Incidentally, this patch also fixes a real memory leak when
macvtap_get_queue fails.

Chris Wright noticed that for this patch to work, we need a
non-zero TX queue length.  This patch includes his work to change
the default macvtap TX queue length to 500.

e955cead03 CAN: Add Flexcan CAN controller driver
This core is found on some Freescale SoCs and also some Coldfire
SoCs. Support for Coldfire is missing though at the moment as
they have an older revision of the core which does not have RX FIFO
support.
