lockdep found that dev->lock taken from softirq in ipv6_add_addr is also taken in sctp_v6_copy_addrlist with softirqs enabled, so lockup is possible. Noticed-by: Simon Arlott <simon@arlott.org> Signed-off-by: Jarek Poplawski <jarkao2@o2.pl> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2007-03-08[PATCH] bluetooth: fix socket locking in hci_sock_dev_event()Jiri Kosina
[Bluetooth] Fix socket locking in hci_sock_dev_event() hci_sock_dev_event() uses bh_lock_sock() to lock the socket lock. This is not deadlock-safe against locking of the same socket lock in l2cap_connect_cfm() from softirq context. In addition to that, hci_sock_dev_event() doesn't seem to be called from softirq context, so it is safe to use lock_sock()/release_sock() instead. The lockdep warning can be triggered on my T42p simply by switching the Bluetooth off by the keyboard button. ================================= [ INFO: inconsistent lock state ] 2.6.21-rc2 #4 --------------------------------- inconsistent {in-softirq-W} -> {softirq-on-W} usage. khubd/156 [HC0[0]:SC0[0]:HE1:SE1] takes: (slock-AF_BLUETOOTH){-+..}, at: [<e0ca5520>] hci_sock_dev_event+0xa8/0xc5 [bluetooth] {in-softirq-W} state was registered at: [<c012d1db>] mark_lock+0x59/0x414 [<e0cef688>] l2cap_connect_cfm+0x4e/0x11f [l2cap] [<c012dfd7>] __lock_acquire+0x3e5/0xb99 [<e0cef688>] l2cap_connect_cfm+0x4e/0x11f [l2cap] [<c012e7f2>] lock_acquire+0x67/0x81 [<e0cef688>] l2cap_connect_cfm+0x4e/0x11f [l2cap] [<c036ee72>] _spin_lock+0x29/0x34 [<e0cef688>] l2cap_connect_cfm+0x4e/0x11f [l2cap] [<e0cef688>] l2cap_connect_cfm+0x4e/0x11f [l2cap] [<e0ca17c3>] hci_send_cmd+0x126/0x14f [bluetooth] [<e0ca4ce4>] hci_event_packet+0x729/0xebd [bluetooth] [<e0ca205b>] hci_rx_task+0x2a/0x20f [bluetooth] [<e0ca209d>] hci_rx_task+0x6c/0x20f [bluetooth] [<c012d7be>] trace_hardirqs_on+0x10d/0x14e [<c011ac85>] tasklet_action+0x3d/0x68 [<c011abba>] __do_softirq+0x41/0x92 [<c011ac32>] do_softirq+0x27/0x3d [<c0105134>] do_IRQ+0x7b/0x8f [<c0103dec>] common_interrupt+0x24/0x34 [<c0103df6>] common_interrupt+0x2e/0x34 [<c0248e65>] acpi_processor_idle+0x1b3/0x34a [<c0248e68>] acpi_processor_idle+0x1b6/0x34a [<c010232b>] cpu_idle+0x39/0x4e [<c04bab0c>] start_kernel+0x372/0x37a [<c04ba42b>] unknown_bootoption+0x0/0x202 [<ffffffff>] 0xffffffff Signed-off-by: Jiri Kosina <jkosina@suse.cz> Acked-by: Marcel Holtmann <marcel@holtmann.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2007-03-07[BRIDGE]: adding new device to bridge should enable if upAji Srinivas
One change introduced by the workqueue removal patch is that adding an interface that is up to a bridge which is also up does not ever call br_stp_enable_port(), leaving the port in DISABLED state until we do ifconfig down and up or link events occur. The following patch to the br_add_if function fixes it. This is a regression introduced in 2.6.21.

2007-03-07[IPSEC]: xfrm audit hook misplaced in pfkey_delete and xfrm_del_saEric Paris
Inside pfkey_delete and xfrm_del_sa the audit hooks were not called if there was any permission/security failures in attempting to do the del operation (such as permission denied from security_xfrm_state_delete).

2007-03-07[IPSEC]: xfrm_policy delete security check misplacedEric Paris
The security hooks to check permissions to remove an xfrm_policy were actually done after the policy was removed. Since the unlinking and deletion are done in xfrm_policy_by* functions this moves the hooks inside those 2 functions. There we have all the information needed to do the security check and it can be done before the deletion. Since auditing requires the result of that security check err has to be passed back and forth from the xfrm_policy_by* functions. This patch also fixes a bug where a deletion that failed the security check could cause improper accounting on the xfrm_policy (xfrm_get_policy didn't have a put on the exit path for the hold taken by xfrm_policy_by*) It also fixes the return code when no policy is found in xfrm_add_pol_expire. In old code (at least back in the 2.6.18 days) err wasn't used before the return when no policy is found and so the initialization would cause err to be ENOENT. But since err has since been used above when we don't get a policy back from the xfrm_policy_by* function we would always return 0 instead of the intended ENOENT. Also fixed some white space damage in the same area.

2007-03-07[DCCP]: Revert patch which disables bidirectional modeGerrit Renker
This reverts an earlier patch which disabled bidirectional mode, meaning that a listening (passive) socket was not allowed to write to the other (active) end of the connection. This mode had been disabled when there were problems with CCID3, but it imposes a constraint on socket programming and thus hinders deployment. A change is included to ignore RX feedback received by the TX CCID3 module. Many thanks to Andre Noll for pointing out this issue.

2007-03-06[PATCH] knfsd: provide sunrpc pool_mode module optionGreg Banks
Provide a module param "pool_mode" for sunrpc.ko which allows a sysadmin to choose the mode for mapping NFS thread service pools to CPUs. Values are: auto choose a mapping mode heuristically global (default, same as the pre-2.6.19 code) a single global pool percpu one pool per CPU pernode one pool per NUMA node Note that since 2.6.19 the hardcoded behaviour has been "auto", this patch makes the default "global". The pool mode can be changed after boot/modprobe using /sys, if the NFS and lockd services have been shut down. A useful side effect of this change is to fix a small memory leak when unloading the module.

2007-03-06[PATCH] knfsd: fix recently introduced problem with shutting down a busy NFS ↵NeilBrown
server When the last thread of nfsd exits, it shuts down all related sockets. It currently uses svc_close_socket to do this, but that only is immediately effective if the socket is not SK_BUSY. If the socket is busy - i.e. if a request has arrived that has not yet been processes - svc_close_socket is not effective and the shutdown process spins. So create a new svc_force_close_socket which removes the SK_BUSY flag is set and then calls svc_close_socket. Also change some open-codes loops in svc_destroy to use list_for_each_entry_safe.

2007-03-06[PATCH] knfsd: use recv_msg to get peer address for NFSD instead of code-copyingNeilBrown
The sunrpc server code needs to know the source and destination address for UDP packets so it can reply properly. It currently copies code out of the network stack to pick the pieces out of the skb. This is ugly and causes compile problems with the IPv6 stuff. So, rip that out and use recv_msg instead. This is a much cleaner interface, but has a slight cost in that the checksum is now checked before the copy, so we don't benefit from doing both at the same time. This can probably be fixed.

2007-03-06bonding: Improve IGMP join processingJay Vosburgh
In active-backup mode, the current bonding code duplicates IGMP traffic to all slaves, so that switches are up to date in case of a failover from an active to a backup interface. If bonding then fails back to the original active interface, it is likely that the "active slave" switch's IGMP forwarding for the port will be out of date until some event occurs to refresh the switch (e.g., a membership query). This patch alters the behavior of bonding to no longer flood IGMP to all ports, and to issue IGMP JOINs to the newly active port at the time of a failover. This insures that switches are kept up to date for all cases. "GOELLESCH Niels" <niels.goellesch@eurocontrol.int> originally reported this problem, and included a patch. His original patch was modified by Jay Vosburgh to additionally remove the existing IGMP flood behavior, use RCU, streamline code paths, fix trailing white space, and adjust for style.

Fix {nf,ip}_ct_iterate_cleanup unconfirmed list handling: - unconfirmed entries can not be killed manually, they are removed on confirmation or final destruction of the conntrack entry, which means we might iterate forever without making forward progress. This can happen in combination with the conntrack event cache, which holds a reference to the conntrack entry, which is only released when the packet makes it all the way through the stack or a different packet is handled. - taking references to an unconfirmed entry and using it outside the locked section doesn't work, the list entries are not refcounted and another CPU might already be waiting to destroy the entry What the code really wants to do is make sure the references of the hash table to the selected conntrack entries are released, so they will be destroyed once all references from skbs and the event cache are dropped. Since unconfirmed entries haven't even entered the hash yet, simply mark them as dying and skip confirmation based on that.

2007-02-28[NET]: Handle disabled preemption in gfp_any()Patrick McHardy
ctnetlink uses netlink_unicast from an atomic_notifier_chain (which is called within a RCU read side critical section) without holding further locks. netlink_unicast calls netlink_trim with the result of gfp_any() for the gfp flags, which are passed down to pskb_expand_header. gfp_any() only checks for softirq context and returns GFP_KERNEL, resulting in this warning: BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at mm/slab.c:3032 in_atomic():1, irqs_disabled():0 no locks held by rmmod/7010.

2007-02-26[XFRM]: Fix oops in xfrm4_dst_destroy()Bernhard Walle
With 2.6.21-rc1, I get an oops when running 'ifdown eth0' and an IPsec connection is active. If I shut down the connection before running 'ifdown eth0', then there's no problem. The critical operation of this script is to kill dhcpd. The problem is probably caused by commit with git identifier 4337226228e1cfc1d70ee975789c6bd070fb597c (Linus tree) "[IPSEC]: IPv4 over IPv6 IPsec tunnel". This patch fixes that oops. I don't know the network code of the Linux kernel in deep, so if that fix is wrong, please change it. But please fix the oops. :) Signed-off-by: Bernhard Walle <bwalle@suse.de> Acked-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
