2013-06-20ath9k: Use minstrel rate control by defaultSujith Manoharan4-9/+9
commit 5efac94999ff218e0101f67a059e44abb4b0b523 upstream. The ath9k rate control algorithm has various architectural issues that make it a poor fit in scenarios like congested environments etc. An example: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=927191 Change the default to minstrel which is more robust in such cases. The ath9k RC code is left in the driver for now, maybe it can be removed altogether later on.

2013-06-20ath9k: Disable PowerSave by defaultSujith Manoharan1-2/+1
commit 531671cb17af07281e6f28c1425f754346e65c41 upstream. Almost all the DMA issues which have plagued ath9k (in station mode) for years are related to PS. Disabling PS usually "fixes" the user's connection stablility. Reports of DMA problems are still trickling in and are sitting in the kernel bugzilla. Until the PS code in ath9k is given a thorough review, disbale it by default. The slight increase in chip power consumption is a small price to pay for improved link stability.

commit e0e29b683d6784ef59bbc914eac85a04b650e63c upstream. The module parameter "fwpostfix" is userspace controllable, unfiltered, and is used to define the firmware filename. b43_do_request_fw() populates ctx->errors[] on error, containing the firmware filename. b43err() parses its arguments as a format string.

2013-05-19macvlan: fix passthru mode race between dev removal and rx pathJiri Pirko1-3/+4
[ Upstream commit 233c7df0821c4190e2d3f4be0f2ca0ab40a5ed8c, note that I had to add list_first_or_null_rcu to rculist.h in order to accomodate this fix. ] Currently, if macvlan in passthru mode is created and data are rxed and you remove this device, following panic happens: NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000198 IP: [<ffffffffa0196058>] macvlan_handle_frame+0x153/0x1f7 [macvlan] I'm using following script to trigger this: <script> while [ 1 ] do ip link add link e1 name macvtap0 type macvtap mode passthru ip link set e1 up ip link set macvtap0 up IFINDEX=`ip link |grep macvtap0 | cut -f 1 -d ':'` cat /dev/tap$IFINDEX >/dev/null & ip link del dev macvtap0 done </script> I run this script while "ping -f" is running on another machine to send packets to e1 rx. Reason of the panic is that list_first_entry() is blindly called in macvlan_handle_frame() even if the list was empty. vlan is set to incorrect pointer which leads to the crash. I'm fixing this by protecting port->vlans list by rcu and by preventing from getting incorrect pointer in case the list is empty.

2013-05-19sfc: Fix naming of MTD partitions for FPGA bitfilesBen Hutchings1-1/+1
[ Upstream commit 89cc80a44b7c320e08599cb86f6aef0ead8986a1 ] efx_mcdi_get_board_cfg() uses a buffer for the firmware response that is only large enough to hold subtypes for the originally defined set of NVRAM partitions. Longer responses are truncated, and we may read off the end of the buffer when copying out subtypes for additional partitions. In particular, this can result in the MTD partition for an FPGA bitfile being named e.g. 'eth5 sfc_fpga:00' when it should be 'eth5 sfc_fpga:01'. This means the firmware update tool (sfupdate) can't tell which bitfile should be written to the partition. Correct the response buffer size.

It is likely a hardcoded firmware default. The circumstances where this bug has been observed indicates that the trigger is related to timing or some other factor the host cannot control. Repeating the exact same configuration sequence that caused it to trigger once, will not necessarily cause it to trigger the next time. Reproducing the bug is therefore difficult. This opens up a possibility that the bug is more common than we can confirm, because affected devices often will work properly again after a reset. A procedure most users are likely to try out before reporting a bug. Unconditionally rewriting the destination address if the first digit of the received packet is 0, is considered an acceptable compromise since we already have to inspect this digit. The simplification will cause unnecessary rewrites if the real address starts with 0, but this is still better than adding additional tests for this particular case.

2013-05-19net: qmi_wwan: fixup missing ethernet header (firmware bug workaround)Bjørn Mork1-0/+81
[ Upstream commit 6ff509af3869ccac69dcf8905fc75b9a76951594 ] A number of LTE devices from different vendors all suffer from the same firmware bug: Most of the packets received from the device while it is attached to a LTE network will not have an ethernet header. The devices work as expected when attached to 2G or 3G networks, sending an ethernet header with all packets. This driver is not aware of which network the modem attached to, and even if it were there are still some packet types which are always received with the header intact. All devices supported by this driver have severely limited networking capabilities: - can only transmit IPv4, IPv6 and possibly ARP - can only support a single host hardware address at any time - will only do point-to-point communcation with the host Because of this, we are able to reliably identify any bogus raw IP packets by simply looking at the 4 IP version bits. All we need to do is to avoid 4 or 6 in the first digit of the mac address. This workaround ensures this, and fix up the received packets as necessary. Given the distribution of the bug, it is believed that the source is the chipset vendor. The devices which are verified to be affected are: Huawei E392u-12 (Qualcomm MDM9200) Pantech UML290 (Qualcomm MDM9600) Novatel USB551L (Qualcomm MDM9600) Novatel E362 (Qualcomm MDM9600) It is believed that the bug depend on firmware revision, which means that possibly all devices based on the above mentioned chipset may be affected if we consider all available firmware revisions. The information about affected devices and versions is likely incomplete. As the additional overhead for packets not needing this fixup is very small, it is considered acceptable to apply the workaround to all devices handled by this driver.

2013-05-19B43: Handle DMA RX descriptor underrunThommy Jakobsson3-26/+40
commit 73b82bf0bfbf58e6ff328d3726934370585f6e78 upstream. Add handling of rx descriptor underflow. This fixes a fault that could happen on slow machines, where data is received faster than the CPU can handle. In such a case the device will use up all rx descriptors and refuse to send any more data before confirming that it is ok. This patch enables necessary interrupt to discover such a situation and will handle them by dropping everything in the ring buffer.

commit ccd384b10420ac81ba3fb9b0a7d18272c7173552 upstream.

commit d87d830720a1446403ed38bfc2da268be0d356d1 upstream. Previously, the ixgbe_msix_other was writing the full 32bits of the set interrupts, instead of only the ones which the ixgbe_msix_other is handling. This resulted in a loss of performance when the X540's PPS feature is enabled due to sometimes clearing queue interrupts which resulted in the driver not getting the interrupt for cleaning the q_vector rings often enough. The fix is to simply mask the lower 16bits off so that this handler does not write them in the EICR, which causes them to remain high and be properly handled by the clean_rings interrupt routine as normal.

2013-04-05bonding: fix miimon and arp_interval delayed work race conditionsnikolay@redhat.com2-86/+36
[ Upstream commit fbb0c41b814d497c656fc7be9e35456f139cb2fb ] First I would give three observations which will be used later. Observation 1: if (delayed_work_pending(wq)) cancel_delayed_work(wq) This usage is wrong because the pending bit is cleared just before the work's fn is executed and if the function re-arms itself we might end up with the work still running. It's safe to call cancel_delayed_work_sync() even if the work is not queued at all. Observation 2: Use of INIT_DELAYED_WORK() Work needs to be initialized only once prior to (de/en)queueing. Observation 3: IFF_UP is set only after ndo_open is called Related race conditions: 1. Race between bonding_store_miimon() and bonding_store_arp_interval() Because of Obs.1 we can end up having both works enqueued. 2. Multiple races with INIT_DELAYED_WORK() Since the works are not protected by anything between INIT_DELAYED_WORK() and calls to (en/de)queue it is possible for races between the following functions: (races are also possible between the calls to INIT_DELAYED_WORK() and workqueue code) bonding_store_miimon() - bonding_store_arp_interval(), bond_close(), bond_open(), enqueued functions bonding_store_arp_interval() - bonding_store_miimon(), bond_close(), bond_open(), enqueued functions 3. By Obs.1 we need to change bond_cancel_all() Bugs 1 and 2 are fixed by moving all work initializations in bond_open which by Obs. 2 and Obs. 3 and the fact that we make sure that all works are cancelled in bond_close(), is guaranteed not to have any work enqueued. Also RTNL lock is now acquired in bonding_store_miimon/arp_interval so they can't race with bond_close and bond_open. The opposing work is cancelled only if the IFF_UP flag is set and it is cancelled unconditionally. The opposing work is already cancelled if the interface is down so no need to cancel it again. This way we don't need new synchronizations for the bonding workqueue. These bugs (and fixes) are tied together and belong in the same patch.

commit 2e1253d640eb7f8707d2591c93097c1e9f9c71d5 upstream. When calculating "offset" for final RSSI calibration we're using numbers bigger than s8 can hold. We have for example: offset[j] = 232 - poll_results[j]; formula. If poll_results[j] is small enough (it usually is) we treat number's bit as a sign bit. For example 232 - 1 becomes: 0xE8 - 0x1 = 0xE7, which is not 231 but -25. This code was introduced in e0c9a0219a8f542e3946fe972a68aacf8c3f906c and caused stability regression on some cards, for ex.

2013-04-05b43: A fix for DMA transmission sequence errorsIestyn C. Elfick1-12/+53
commit b251412db99ccd4495ce372fec7daee27bf06923 upstream. Intermittently, b43 will report "Out of order TX status report on DMA ring". When this happens, the driver must be reset before communication can resume. The cause of the problem is believed to be an error in the closed-source firmware; however, all versions of the firmware are affected. This change uses the observation that the expected status is always 2 less than the observed value, and supplies a fake status report to skip one header/data pair. Not all devices suffer from this problem, but it can occur several times per second under heavy load. As each occurence kills the unmodified driver, this patch makes if possible for the affected devices to function. The patch logs only the first instance of the reset operation to prevent spamming the logs.
