2008-05-23IB/mad: Fix kernel crash when .process_mad() returns SUCCESS|CONSUMEDDave Olson1-1/+3
If a low-level driver returns IB_MAD_RESULT_SUCCESS | IB_MAD_RESULT_CONSUMED, handle_outgoing_dr_smp() doesn't clean up properly. The fix is to kfree the local data and break, rather than falling through. This was observed with the ipath driver, but could happen with any driver.

2008-05-20IPoIB: Test for NULL broadcast object in ipiob_mcast_join_finish()Jack Morgenstein1-0/+6
We saw a kernel oops in our regression testing when a multicast "join finish" occurred just after the interface was -- this is <https://bugs.openfabrics.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1040>. The test randomly causes the HCA physical port to go down then up. The cause of this is that ipoib_mcast_join_finish() processing happen just after ipoib_mcast_dev_flush() was invoked (in which case the broadcast pointer is NULL). This patch tests for and handles the case where priv->broadcast is NULL.

2008-05-20ath5k: Fix loop variable initializationsBob Copeland2-2/+6
In ath5k_tasklet_rx, both status structures 'rxs' and 'rs' are initialized at the top of the tasklet, but not within the loop. If the loop is executed multiple times in the tasklet then the variables may see changes from previous packets. For TKIP, this results in 'Invalid Michael MIC' errors if two packets are processed in the tasklet: rxs.flag gets set to RX_DECRYPTED by mac80211 when it decrypts the first encrypted packet. The subsequent packet will have RX_DECRYPTED set upon entry to mac80211, so mac80211 will not try to decrypt it. We currently initialize all but two fields in the structures, so fix the other two.

Commit 7329e211b987a493cbcfca0e98c60eb108ab42df ("USB: root hubs don't lie about their number of TTs") requires the various platform EHCI glue modules to set ->has_tt if the root hub has a Transaction Translator. The Orion EHCI root hub does have a Transaction Translator, so set ->has_tt in ehci_orion_setup(). This fixes oopsing on plugging in a low speed device.

2008-05-20IB/mlx4: Fix creation of kernel QP with max number of send s/g entriesRoland Dreier1-5/+8
When creating a kernel QP where the consumer asked for a send queue with lots of scatter/gater entries, set_kernel_sq_size() incorrectly returned an error if the send queue stride is larger than the hardware's maximum send work request descriptor size. This is not a problem; the only issue is to make sure that the actual descriptors used do not overflow the maximum descriptor size, so check this instead. Clamp the returned max_send_sge value to be no bigger than what query_device returns for the max_sge to avoid confusing hapless users, even if the hardware is capable of handling a few more s/g entries. This bug caused NFS/RDMA mounts to fail when the server adapter used the mlx4 driver. Signed-off-by: Roland Dreier <rolandd@cisco.com>
