* bridge: use rx_handler_data pointer to store net_bridge_port pointerJiri Pirko2010-06-1516-46/+68
| | | | | | | | | | Register net_bridge_port pointer as rx_handler data pointer. As br_port is removed from struct net_device, another netdev priv_flag is added to indicate the device serves as a bridge port. Also rcuized pointers are now correctly dereferenced in br_fdb.c and in netfilter parts. Signed-off-by: Jiri Pirko <jpirko@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

* bridge: Fix netpoll supportHerbert Xu2010-06-154-84/+120
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There are multiple problems with the newly added netpoll support: 1) Use-after-free on each netpoll packet. 2) Invoking unsafe code on netpoll/IRQ path. 3) Breaks when netpoll is enabled on the underlying device. This patch fixes all of these problems. In particular, we now allocate proper netpoll structures for each underlying device. We only allow netpoll to be enabled on the bridge when all the devices underneath it support netpoll. Once it is enabled, we do not allow non-netpoll devices to join the bridge (until netpoll is disabled again). This allows us to do away with the npinfo juggling that caused problem number 1. Incidentally this patch fixes number 2 by bypassing unsafe code such as multicast snooping and netfilter.

* netpoll: Allow netpoll_setup/cleanup recursionHerbert Xu2010-06-151-79/+97
| | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds the functions __netpoll_setup/__netpoll_cleanup which is designed to be called recursively through ndo_netpoll_seutp. They must be called with RTNL held, and the caller must initialise np->dev and ensure that it has a valid reference count.

* netpoll: Add locking for netpoll_setup/cleanupHerbert Xu2010-06-151-75/+76
| | | | | | | | | | | | | As it stands, netpoll_setup and netpoll_cleanup have no locking protection whatsoever. So chaos ensures if two entities try to perform them on the same device. This patch adds RTNL to the equation. The code has been rearranged so that bits that do not need RTNL protection are now moved to the top of netpoll_setup.

* netpoll: Fix RCU usageHerbert Xu2010-06-151-8/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The use of RCU in netpoll is incorrect in a number of places: 1) The initial setting is lacking a write barrier. 2) The synchronize_rcu is in the wrong place. 3) Read barriers are missing. 4) Some places are even missing rcu_read_lock. 5) npinfo is zeroed after freeing. This patch fixes those issues. As most users are in BH context, this also converts the RCU usage to the BH variant. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Acked-by: Paul E.

(tested with CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA=y) - Group variables in two structures to reduce number of dirtied cache lines. One named "peers" for avl tree root, its number of entries, and associated lock. (candidate for RCU conversion) - A second one named "unused_peers" for unused list and its lock - Add a !list_empty() test in unlink_from_unused() to avoid taking lock when entry is not unused. - Use atomic_dec_and_lock() in inet_putpeer() to avoid taking lock in some cases.

This behavior is different then the non-accelerated path and for pkts over a bonded vlan. For example, vlanx -> bond0 -> ethx will be dropped in the vlan path and not delivered to any packet handlers at all. However, bond0 -> vlanx -> ethx and bond0 -> ethx will be delivered to handlers that match the exact dev, because the VLAN path checks the real_dev which is not a slave and netif_recv_skb() doesn't drop frames but only delivers them to exact matches. This patch adds a sk_buff flag which is used for tagging skbs that would previously been dropped and allows the skb to continue to skb_netif_recv(). Here we add logic to check for the deliver_no_wcard flag and if it is set only deliver to handlers that match exactly. This makes both paths above consistent and gives pkt handlers a way to identify skbs that come from inactive slaves. Without this patch in some configurations skbs will be delivered to handlers with exact matches and in others be dropped out right in the vlan path. I have tested the following 4 configurations in failover modes and load balancing modes. # bond0 -> ethx # vlanx -> bond0 -> ethx # bond0 -> vlanx -> ethx # bond0 -> ethx | vlanx -> -- Signed-off-by: John Fastabend <john.r.fastabend@intel.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When we receive a deauthentication frame before having successfully associated, we neither print a message nor abort assocation. The former makes it hard to debug, while the latter later causes a warning in cfg80211 when, as will typically be the case, association timed out. This warning was reported by many, e.g. in https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15981, but I couldn't initially pinpoint it. I verified the fix by hacking hostapd to send a deauth frame instead of an association response.

If this happens very quickly on a fairly slow machine, we can end up processing the blockack request before the association processing has finished. Since the blockack processing cannot sleep right now, we also cannot make it wait in the driver. As a result, sometimes on slow machines the iwlagn driver gets totally confused, and no traffic can pass when the aggregation setup was done before the assoc setup completed. I'm working on a proper fix for this, which involves queuing all blockack category action frames from a work struct, and also allowing the ampdu_action driver callback to sleep, which will generally clean up the code and make things easier. However, this is a very involved and complex change. To fix the problem at hand in a way that can also be backported to stable, I've come up with this patch. Here, I simply process all aggregation action frames from the managed interface skb queue, which means their processing will be serialized with processing the association response, thereby fixing the problem.

Also make rx_h_decrypt use a local variable for the frame_control so that we don't need to reload the hdr variable for this after linearizing.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There's no sense in letting anything but internal mac80211 functions set the initiator to anything but WLAN_BACK_INITIATOR, since WLAN_BACK_RECIPIENT is only valid when we have received a frame from the peer, which we react to directly in mac80211. The debugfs code I recently added got this wrong as well. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
| * | | mac80211: Add support for hardware ARP query filteringJuuso Oikarinen2010-06-035-2/+116
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some hardware allow extended filtering of ARP frames not intended for the host. To perform such filtering, the hardware needs to know the current IP address(es) of the host, bound to its interface. Add support for ARP filtering to mac80211 by adding a new op to the driver interface, allowing to configure the current IP addresses. This op is called upon association with the currently configured address(es), and when associated whenever the IP address(es) change. This patch adds configuration of IPv4 addresses only, as IPv6 addresses don't need ARP filtering.

| * | | mac80211: remove bogus mod_timer() callJohannes Berg2010-06-031-3/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The IBSS code has a bogus mod_timer(..., 0) call, we shouldn't ever pass a constant value to the function since any constant value could be in the future or the past. However, invoking the timer here is not necessary at all, since we just finished scanning and just need to have the IBSS code run again from the workqueue later, so factor out the work starting and use that instead.

| * | | cfg80211: make action channel type optionalJohannes Berg2010-06-026-5/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When sending action frames, we want to verify that we do that on the correct channel. However, checking the channel type in addition can get in the way, since the channel type could change on the fly during an association, and it's not useful to have the channel type anyway since it has no effect on the transmission. Therefore, make it optional to specify so that if wanted, it can still be checked, but is not required. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W.
