John W. Linville says:
====================
This pull request is intended for the 3.8 stream. It is a bit large
-- I guess Thanksgiving got me off track! At least the code got to
spend some time in linux-next... :-)
This includes the usual batch of pulls for Bluetooth, NFC, and mac80211
as well as iwlwifi. Also here is an ath6kl pull, and a new driver
in the rtlwifi family. The brcmfmac, brcmsmac, ath9k, and mwl8k get
their usual levels of attention, and a handful of other updates tag
along as well.
For more detail on the pulls, please see below...
On Bluetooth, Gustavo says:
"Another set of patches for integration in wireless-next. There are two big set
of changes in it: Andrei Emeltchenko and Mat Martineau added more patches
towards a full Bluetooth High Speed support and Johan Hedberg improve the
single mode support for Bluetooth dongles. Apart from that we have small fixes
and improvements."
...and:
"A few patches to 3.8. The majority of the work here is from Andrei on the High
Speed support. Other than that Johan added support for setting LE advertising
data. The rest are fixes and clean ups and small improvements like support for
a new broadcom hardware."
On mac80211, Johannes says:
"This is for mac80211, for -next (3.8). Plenty of changes, as you can see
below. Some fixes for previous changes like the export.h include, the
beacon listener fix from Ben Greear, etc. Overall, no exciting new
features, though hwsim does gain channel context support for people to
try it out and look at."
...and...:
"This one contains the mac80211-next material. Apart from a few small new
features and cleanups I have two fixes for the channel context code. The
RX_END timestamp support will probably be reworked again as Simon Barber
noted the calculations weren't really valid, but the discussions there
are still going on and it's better than what we had before."
...and:
"Please pull (see below) to get the following changes:
* a fix & a debug aid in IBSS from Antonio,
* mesh cleanups from Marco,
* a few bugfixes for some of my previous patches from Arend and myself,
* and the big initial VHT support patchset"
And on iwlwifi, Johannes says:
"In addition to the previous four patches that I'm not resending,
we have a number of cleanups, message reduction, firmware error
handling improvements (yes yes... we need to fix them instead)
and various other small things all over."
...and:
"In his quest to try to understand the current iwlwifi problems (like
stuck queues etc.) Emmanuel has first cleaned up the PCIe code, I'm
including his changes in this pull request. Other than that I only have
a small cleanup from Sachin Kamat to remove a duplicate include and a
bugfix to turn off MFP if software crypto is enabled, but this isn't
really interesting as MFP isn't supported right now anyway."
On NFC, Samuel says:
"With this one we have:
- A few HCI improvements in preparation for an upcoming HCI chipset support.
- A pn544 code cleanup after the old driver was removed.
- An LLCP improvement for notifying user space when one peer stops ACKing I
frames."
On ath6kl, Kalle says:
"Major changes this time are firmware recover support to gracefully
handle if firmware crashes, support for changing regulatory domain and
support for new ar6004 hardware revision 1.4. Otherwise there are just
smaller fixes or cleanups from different people."
Thats about it... :-) Please let me know if there are problems!

Currently, each time a device is detached from an OVS datapath
we call synchronize RCU before freeing associated data structures.
However, if a bridge is deleted (which detaches all ports) when
many devices are connected then there can be a long delay. This
switches to use call_rcu() to group the cost together.

This patch reports the change made by Stephen Hemminger in ipip and gre[6] in
commit eccc1bb8d4b4 (tunnel: drop packet if ECN present with not-ECT).
Goal is to handle RFC6040, Section 4.2:
Default Tunnel Egress Behaviour.
o If the inner ECN field is Not-ECT, the decapsulator MUST NOT
propagate any other ECN codepoint onwards. This is because the
inner Not-ECT marking is set by transports that rely on dropped
packets as an indication of congestion and would not understand or
respond to any other ECN codepoint [RFC4774]. Specifically:
* If the inner ECN field is Not-ECT and the outer ECN field is
CE, the decapsulator MUST drop the packet.
* If the inner ECN field is Not-ECT and the outer ECN field is
Not-ECT, ECT(0), or ECT(1), the decapsulator MUST forward the
outgoing packet with the ECN field cleared to Not-ECT.
The patch takes benefits from common function added in net/inet_ecn.h.
Like it was done for Xin4 tunnels, it adds logging to allow detecting broken
systems that set ECN bits incorrectly when tunneling (or an intermediate
router might be changing the header). Errors are also tracked via
rx_frame_error.

Consider the following program, that sets the second argument to the
sendto() syscall incorrectly:
#include <string.h>
#include <arpa/inet.h>
#include <sys/socket.h>
int main(void)
{
int fd;
struct sockaddr_in sa;
fd = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, 132 /*IPPROTO_SCTP*/);
if (fd < 0)
return 1;
memset(&sa, 0, sizeof(sa));
sa.sin_family = AF_INET;
sa.sin_addr.s_addr = inet_addr("127.0.0.1");
sa.sin_port = htons(11111);
sendto(fd, NULL, 1, 0, (struct sockaddr *)&sa, sizeof(sa));
return 0;
}
We get -ENOMEM:
$ strace -e sendto ./demo
sendto(3, NULL, 1, 0, {sa_family=AF_INET, sin_port=htons(11111), sin_addr=inet_addr("127.0.0.1")}, 16) = -1 ENOMEM (Cannot allocate memory)
Propagate the error code from sctp_user_addto_chunk(), so that we will
tell user space what actually went wrong:
$ strace -e sendto ./demo
sendto(3, NULL, 1, 0, {sa_family=AF_INET, sin_port=htons(11111), sin_addr=inet_addr("127.0.0.1")}, 16) = -1 EFAULT (Bad address)

Trinity (the syscall fuzzer) discovered a memory leak in SCTP,
reproducible e.g. with the sendto() syscall by passing invalid
user space pointer in the second argument:
#include <string.h>
#include <arpa/inet.h>
#include <sys/socket.h>
int main(void)
{
int fd;
struct sockaddr_in sa;
fd = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, 132 /*IPPROTO_SCTP*/);

memset(&sa, 0, sizeof(sa));

sa.sin_port = htons(11111);

The pppoatm_send() does not take any lock that will prevent concurrent
vcc_sendmsg(). This causes two problems:
- there is no locking between checking the send queue size
with atm_may_send() and incrementing sk_wmem_alloc,
and the real queue size can be a little higher than sk_sndbuf
- the vcc->sendmsg() can be called concurrently. I'm not sure
if it's allowed. Some drivers (eni, nicstar, ...) seem
to assume it will never happen.
Now pppoatm_send() takes ATM socket lock, the same that is used
in vcc_sendmsg() and other ATM socket functions. The pppoatm_send()
is called with BH disabled, so bh_lock_sock() is used instead
of lock_sock().

The atm is using atmvcc->push(vcc, NULL) callback to notify protocol
that vcc will be closed and protocol must detach from it. This callback
is usually used by protocol to decrement module usage count by module_put(),
but it leaves small window then module is still used after module_put().
Now the owner of push() callback is kept in atmvcc and
module_put(atmvcc->owner) is called after the protocol is detached from vcc.

Instead of having the getsockopt() of SO_BINDTODEVICE return an index, which
will then require another call like if_indextoname() to get the actual interface
name, have it return the name directly.
This also matches the existing man page description on socket(7) which mentions
the argument being an interface name.
If the value has not been set, zero is returned and optlen will be set to zero
to indicate there is no interface name present.
Added a seqlock to protect this code path, and dev_ifname(), from someone
changing the device name via dev_change_name().

There's really no excuse for an additional wmem_default of buffering
between the netdev queue and the ATM device. Two packets (one in-flight,
and one ready to send) ought to be fine. It's not as if it should take
long to get another from the netdev queue when we need it.
If necessary we can make the queue space configurable later, but I don't
think it's likely to be necessary.
cf. commit 9d02daf754238adac48fa075ee79e7edd3d79ed3 (pppoatm: Fix
excessive queue bloat) which did something very similar for PPPoATM.
Note that there is a tremendously unlikely race condition which may
result in qspace temporarily going negative. If a CPU running the
br2684_pop() function goes off into the weeds for a long period of time
after incrementing qspace to 1, but before calling netdev_wake_queue()...
and another CPU ends up calling br2684_start_xmit() and *stopping* the
queue again before the first CPU comes back, the netdev queue could
end up being woken when qspace has already reached zero.
An alternative approach to coping with this race would be to check in
br2684_start_xmit() for qspace==0 and return NETDEV_TX_BUSY, but just
using '> 0' and '< 1' for comparison instead of '== 0' and '!= 0' is
simpler. It just warranted a mention of *why* we do it that way...
Move the call to atmvcc->send() to happen *after* the accounting and
potentially stopping the netdev queue, in br2684_xmit_vcc(). This matters
if the ->send() call suffers an immediate failure, because it'll call
br2684_pop() with the offending skb before returning. We want that to
happen *after* we've done the initial accounting for the packet in
question. Also make it return an appropriate success/failure indication
while we're at it.
Tested by running 'ping -l 1000 bottomless.aaisp.net.uk' from within my
network, with only a single PPPoE-over-BR2684 link running. And after
setting txqueuelen on the nas0 interface to something low (5, in fact).
Before the patch, we'd see about 15 packets being queued and a resulting
latency of ~56ms being reached. After the patch, we see only about 8,
which is fairly much what we expect. And a max latency of ~36ms. On this
OpenWRT box, wmem_default is 163840.

Commit 82167cb8c6b2f8166d5c7532e5ef4b5e0cc46a72 ('net: dsa/slave: Fix
compilation warnings') fixed one possible invalid configuration
(NET_DSA enabled with no trailer formats) but added others: drivers
can select NET_DSA without its dependencies being met.
It's not very useful to make either the DSA core or the tagging
formats manually selectable without a driver to use them, so:
1. Define a hidden HAVE_NET_DSA option and move the dependencies of
NET_DSA to that. While we're at it, drop the deprecated
EXPERIMENTAL dependency.
2. Make NET_DSA and the drivers dependent on HAVE_NET_DSA.
3. Hide the tagging format options again.
4. Make drivers select both NET_DSA and the appropriate tagging format
option.

Felix Liao reported that when an interface is set DOWN
while another interface is executing a ROC, the warning
in ieee80211_start_next_roc() (about the first item on
the list having started already) triggers.
This is because ieee80211_roc_purge() calls it even if
it never actually changed the list of ROC items. To fix
this, simply remove the function call. If it is needed
then it will be done by the ieee80211_sw_roc_work()
function when the ROC item that is being removed while
active is cleaned up.

Change nl80211 to support specifying a VHT (or HT)
using the control channel frequency (as before) and
new attributes for the channel width and first and
second center frequency. The old channel type is of
course still supported for HT.
Also change the cfg80211 channel definition struct
to support these by adding the relevant fields to
it (and removing the _type field.)
This also adds new helper functions:
- cfg80211_chandef_create to create a channel def
struct given the control channel and channel type,
- cfg80211_chandef_identical to check if two channel
definitions are identical
- cfg80211_chandef_compatible to check if the given
channel definitions are compatible, and return the
wider of the two
This isn't entirely complete, but that doesn't matter
until we have a driver using it. In particular, it's
missing
- regulatory checks on the usable bandwidth (if that
even makes sense)
- regulatory TX power (database can't deal with it)
- a proper channel compatibility calculation for the
new channel types

Instead of passing a channel pointer and channel type
to all functions and driver methods, pass a new channel
definition struct. Right now, this struct contains just
the control channel and channel type, but for VHT this
will change.
Also, add a small inline cfg80211_get_chandef_type() so
that drivers don't need to use the _type field of the
new structure all the time, which will change.

As mwifiex (and mac80211 in the software case) are the
only drivers actually implementing remain-on-channel
with channel type, userspace can't be relying on it.
This is the case, as it's used only for P2P operations
right now.
Rather than adding a flag to tell userspace whether or
not it can actually rely on it, simplify all the code
by removing the ability to use different channel types.
Leave only the validation of the attribute, so that if
we extend it again later (with the needed capability
flag), it can't break userspace sending invalid data.

If ieee80211_prep_channel() decides that HT should be
disabled (because the HT IEs from the AP were invalid)
it will set the IEEE80211_STA_DISABLE_HT to not send
HT capabilities to the AP when associating. If this
happens during authentication, the flag will be lost
and we send HT frames, even if the channel config was
set up for non-HT. This can lead to issues.
Fix this by always resetting the ifmgd flags to zero
when the channel context is released so that the flag
resetting in ieee80211_mgd_assoc() isn't necessary.
To make the code a bit easier move the call to release
the channel in ieee80211_set_disassoc() to the end of
the function together with the flag resetting (which
needs to be at the end to avoid timers setting flags.)
