2008-06-10net: Fix routing tables with id > 255 for legacy softwareKrzysztof Piotr Oledzki1-1/+4
Most legacy software do not like tables > 255 as rtm_table is u8 so tb_id is sent &0xff and it is possible to mismatch for example table 510 with table 254 (main). This patch introduces RT_TABLE_COMPAT=252 so the code uses it if tb_id > 255. It makes such old applications happy, new ones are still able to use RTA_TABLE to get a proper table id.

2008-06-10ipsec: pfkey should ignore events when no listenersJamal Hadi Salim1-0/+3
When pfkey has no km listeners, it still does a lot of work before finding out there aint nobody out there. If a tree falls in a forest and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound? In this case it makes a lot of noise: With this short-circuit adding 10s of thousands of SAs using netlink improves performance by ~10%.

2008-06-04tcp: Fix for race due to temporary drop of the socket lock in skb_splice_bits.Octavian Purdila2-3/+11
skb_splice_bits temporary drops the socket lock while iterating over the socket queue in order to break a reverse locking condition which happens with sendfile. This, however, opens a window of opportunity for tcp_collapse() to aggregate skbs and thus potentially free the current skb used in skb_splice_bits and tcp_read_sock. This patch fixes the problem by (re-)getting the same "logical skb" after the lock has been temporary dropped. Based on idea and initial patch from Evgeniy Polyakov.

2008-06-04tcp: fix skb vs fack_count out-of-sync conditionIlpo Järvinen1-3/+3
This bug is able to corrupt fackets_out in very rare cases. In order for this to cause corruption: 1) DSACK in the middle of previous SACK block must be generated. 2) In order to take that particular branch, part or all of the DSACKed segment must already be SACKed so that we have that in cache in the first place. 3) The new info must be top enough so that fackets_out will be updated on this iteration. ...then fack_count is updated while skb wasn't, then we walk again that particular segment thus updating fack_count twice for a single skb and finally that value is assigned to fackets_out by tcp_sacktag_one. It is safe to call tcp_sacktag_one just once for a segment (at DSACK), no need to call again for plain SACK. Potential problem of the miscount are limited to premature entry to recovery and to inflated reordering metric (which could even cancel each other out in the most the luckiest scenarios :-)). Both are quite insignificant in worst case too and there exists also code to reset them (fackets_out once sacked_out becomes zero and reordering metric on RTO). This has been reported by a number of people, because it occurred quite rarely, it has been very evasive. Andy Furniss was able to get it to occur couple of times so that a bit more info was collected about the problem using a debug patch, though it still required lot of checking around. Thanks also to others who have tried to help here. This is listed as Bugzilla #10346. The bug was introduced by me in commit 68f8353b48 ([TCP]: Rewrite SACK block processing & sack_recv_cache use), I probably thought back then that there's need to scan that entry twice or didn't dare to make it go through it just once there. Going through twice would have required restoring fack_count after the walk but as noted above, I chose to drop the additional walk step altogether here.

2008-06-04tcp: Fix inconsistency source (CA_Open only when !tcp_left_out(tp))Ilpo Järvinen1-10/+19
It is possible that this skip path causes TCP to end up into an invalid state where ca_state was left to CA_Open while some segments already came into sacked_out. If next valid ACK doesn't contain new SACK information TCP fails to enter into tcp_fastretrans_alert(). Thus at least high_seq is set incorrectly to a too high seqno because some new data segments could be sent in between (and also, limited transmit is not being correctly invoked there). Reordering in both directions can easily cause this situation to occur. I guess we would want to use tcp_moderate_cwnd(tp) there as well as it may be possible to use this to trigger oversized burst to network by sending an old ACK with huge amount of SACK info, but I'm a bit unsure about its effects (mainly to FlightSize), so to be on the safe side I just currently fixed it minimally to keep TCP's state consistent (obviously, such nasty ACKs have been possible this far). Though it seems that FlightSize is already underestimated by some amount, so probably on the long term we might want to trigger recovery there too, if appropriate, to make FlightSize calculation to resemble reality at the time when the losses where discovered (but such change scares me too much now and requires some more thinking anyway how to do that as it likely involves some code shuffling). This bug was found by Brian Vowell while running my TCP debug patch to find cause of another TCP issue (fackets_out miscount).

2008-06-03net: neighbour table ABI problemStephen Hemminger1-3/+3
The neighbor table time of last use information is returned in the incorrect unit. Kernel to user space ABI's need to use USER_HZ (or milliseconds), otherwise the application has to try and discover the real system HZ value which is problematic. Linux has standardized on keeping USER_HZ consistent (100hz) even when kernel is running internally at some other value. This change is small, but it breaks the ABI for older version of iproute2 utilities. But these utilities are already broken since they are looking at the psched_hz values which are completely different. So let's just go ahead and fix both kernel and user space. Older utilities will just print wrong values. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@vyatta.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2008-06-03irda: Sock leak on error path in irda_create.Pavel Emelyanov1-5/+7
Bad type/protocol specified result in sk leak. Fix is simple - release the sk if bad values are given, but to make it possible just to call sk_free(), I move some sk initialization a bit lower. Signed-off-by: Pavel Emelyanov <xemul@openvz.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2008-06-03ax25: Fix NULL pointer dereference and lockup.Jarek Poplawski1-8/+3
From: Jarek Poplawski <jarkao2@gmail.com> There is only one function in AX25 calling skb_append(), and it really looks suspicious: appends skb after previously enqueued one, but in the meantime this previous skb could be removed from the queue. This patch Fixes it the simple way, so this is not fully compatible with the current method, but testing hasn't shown any problems.

2008-06-03bluetooth: rfcomm_dev_state_change deadlock fixDave Young1-1/+12
There's logic in __rfcomm_dlc_close: rfcomm_dlc_lock(d); d->state = BT_CLOSED; d->state_changed(d, err); rfcomm_dlc_unlock(d); In rfcomm_dev_state_change, it's possible that rfcomm_dev_put try to take the dlc lock, then we will deadlock. Here fixed it by unlock dlc before rfcomm_dev_get in rfcomm_dev_state_change. why not unlock just before rfcomm_dev_put? it's because there's another problem. rfcomm_dev_get/rfcomm_dev_del will take rfcomm_dev_lock, but in rfcomm_dev_add the lock order is : rfcomm_dev_lock --> dlc lock so I unlock dlc before the taken of rfcomm_dev_lock. Actually it's a regression caused by commit 1905f6c736cb618e07eca0c96e60e3c024023428 ("bluetooth : __rfcomm_dlc_close lock fix"), the dlc state_change could be two callbacks : rfcomm_sk_state_change and rfcomm_dev_state_change. I missed the rfcomm_sk_state_change that time. Thanks Arjan van de Ven <arjan@linux.intel.com> for the effort in commit 4c8411f8c115def968820a4df6658ccfd55d7f1a ("bluetooth: fix locking bug in the rfcomm socket cleanup handling") but he missed the rfcomm_dev_state_change lock issue.
