Benjamin Thery tracked down a bug that explains many instances
of the error
unregister_netdevice: waiting for %s to become free. Usage count = %d
It turns out that netdev_run_todo can dead-lock with itself if
a second instance of it is run in a thread that will then free
a reference to the device waited on by the first instance.
The problem is really quite silly. We were trying to create
parallelism where none was required. As netdev_run_todo always
follows a RTNL section, and that todo tasks can only be added
with the RTNL held, by definition you should only need to wait
for the very ones that you've added and be done with it.

When TCP receive copy offload is enabled it's possible that
tcp_rcv_established() will cause two acks to be sent for a single
packet. In the case that a tcp_dma_early_copy() is successful,
copied_early is set to true which causes tcp_cleanup_rbuf() to be
called early which can send an ack. Further along in
tcp_rcv_established(), __tcp_ack_snd_check() is called and will
schedule a delayed ACK. If no packets are processed before the delayed
ack timer expires the packet will be acked twice.

Jesper Dangaard Brouer <hawk@comx.dk> reported a bug when setting a VLAN
device down that is in promiscous mode:
When the VLAN device is set down, the promiscous count on the real
device is decremented by one by vlan_dev_stop(). When removing the
promiscous flag from the VLAN device afterwards, the promiscous
count on the real device is decremented a second time by the
vlan_change_rx_flags() callback.
The root cause for this is that the ->change_rx_flags() callback is
invoked while the device is down. The synchronization is meant to mirror
the behaviour of the ->set_rx_mode callbacks, meaning the ->open function
is responsible for doing a full sync on open, the ->close() function is
responsible for doing full cleanup on ->stop() and ->change_rx_flags()
is meant to do incremental changes while the device is UP.
Only invoke ->change_rx_flags() while the device is UP to provide the
intended behaviour.

Despite the fact that cloned rpc clients won't have the cl_autobind flag
set, they may still find themselves calling rpcb_getport_async(). For this
to happen, it suffices for a _parent_ rpc_clnt to use autobinding, in which
case any clone may find itself triggering the !xprt_bound() case in
call_bind().
The correct fix for this is to walk back up the tree of cloned rpc clients,
in order to find the parent that 'owns' the transport, either because it
has clnt->cl_autobind set, or because it originally created the
transport...

The association response IEs are sent to userland with an IWEVCUSTOM
event, which unfortunately is limited to a little more than 100 bytes
of IE information with the encoding used. Many APs send so much
IE information that this message overflows. When the IWEVCUSTOM
event is too large, the kernel doesn't send it to userland anyway --
better just not to send it.
An attempt was made by Jouni Malinen to correct this issue by
converting to use IWEVASSOCREQIE and IWEVASSOCRESPIE messages instead
("mac80211: Use IWEVASSOCREQIE instead of IWEVCUSTOM"). Unfortunately,
that caused a problem due to 32-/64-bit interactions on some systems and
was reverted after the 'userland ABI' rule was invoked. That leaves
us with this option instead of a proper fix, at least until we move

"The number of out of the blue packets received by the host.
An out of the blue packet is an SCTP packet correctly formed,
including the proper checksum, but for which the receiver was
unable to identify an appropriate association."
REFERENCE
"Section 8.4 in RFC2960 deals with the Out-Of-The-Blue
(OOTB) packet definition and procedures."
But OOTB packet INIT, INIT-ACK and SHUTDOWN-ACK(COOKIE-WAIT or
COOKIE-ECHOED state) are not counted by SCTP_MIB_OUTOFBLUES.
Case 1(INIT):
Endpoint A Endpoint B
(CLOSED) (CLOSED)
INIT ---------->

RFC 4960: Section 9.2
The sender of the SHUTDOWN MAY also start an overall guard timer
'T5-shutdown-guard' to bound the overall time for the shutdown
sequence. At the expiration of this timer, the sender SHOULD abort
the association by sending an ABORT chunk. If the 'T5-shutdown-
guard' timer is used, it SHOULD be set to the recommended value of 5
times 'RTO.Max'.
The timer 'T5-shutdown-guard' is used to counter the overall time
for shutdown sequence, and it's start by the sender of the SHUTDOWN.
So timer 'T5-shutdown-guard' should be start when we send the first
SHUTDOWN chunk and enter the SHUTDOWN-SENT state, not start when we
receipt of the SHUTDOWN primitive and enter SHUTDOWN-PENDING state.
If 'T5-shutdown-guard' timer is start at SHUTDOWN-PENDING state, the
association may be ABORT while data is still transmitting.

only looks at the address itself to determine the address family.
This function is used in the API to check the address passed in from

TI-RPC is a user-space library of RPC functions that replaces ONC RPC
and allows RPC to operate in the new world of IPv6.
TI-RPC combines the concept of a transport protocol (UDP and TCP)
and a protocol family (PF_INET and PF_INET6) into a single identifier
called a "netid." For example, "udp" means UDP over IPv4, and "udp6"
means UDP over IPv6.
For rpcbind, then, the RPC service tuple that is registered and
advertised is:
[RPC program, RPC version, service address and port, netid]
instead of
[RPC program, RPC version, port, protocol]
Service address is typically ANYADDR, but can be a specific address
of one of the interfaces on a multi-homed host. The third item in
the new tuple is expressed as a universal address.
The current Linux rpcbind implementation registers a netid for both
protocol families when RPCB_SET is done for just the PF_INET6 version
of the netid (ie udp6 or tcp6). So registering "udp6" causes a
registration for "udp" to appear automatically as well.
We've recently determined that this is incorrect behavior. In the
TI-RPC world, "udp6" is not meant to imply that the registered RPC
service handles requests from AF_INET as well, even if the listener
socket does address mapping. "udp" and "udp6" are entirely separate
capabilities, and must be registered separately.
The Linux kernel, unlike TI-RPC, leverages address mapping to allow a
single listener socket to handle requests for both AF_INET and AF_INET6.
This is still OK, but the kernel currently assumes registering "udp6"
will cover "udp" as well. It registers only "udp6" for it's AF_INET6
services, even though they handle both AF_INET and AF_INET6 on the same
port.
So svc_register() actually needs to register both "udp" and "udp6"
explicitly (and likewise for TCP). Until rpcbind is fixed, the
kernel can ignore the return code for the second RPCB_SET call.

In order to advertise NFS-related services on IPv6 interfaces via
rpcbind, the kernel RPC server implementation must use
rpcb_v4_register() instead of rpcb_register().
A new kernel build option allows distributions to use the legacy
v2 call until they integrate an appropriate user-space rpcbind
daemon that can support IPv6 RPC services.
I tried adding some automatic logic to fall back if registering
with a v4 protocol request failed, but there are too many corner
cases. So I just made it a compile-time switch that distributions
can throw when they've replaced portmapper with rpcbind.

Bruce suggested there's no need to expose the difference between an error
sending the PMAP_SET request and an error reply from the portmapper to
rpcb_register's callers. The user space equivalent of rpcb_register() is
pmap_set(3), which returns a bool_t : either the PMAP set worked, or it
didn't. Simple.
So let's remove the "*okay" argument from rpcb_register() and
rpcb_v4_register(), and simply return an error if any part of the call
didn't work.

My plan is to use an AF_INET listener on systems that support only IPv4,

Max Matveev <makc@sgi.com> says:
Creating a single listener can be dangerous - if net.ipv6.bindv6only
is enabled then it's possible to create another listener in v4
namespace on the same port and steal the traffic from the "unifed"
listener. You need to disable V6ONLY explicitly via a sockopt to stop

p9_conn_destroy() first kills all current requests by calling
p9_conn_cancel(), then waits for the request list to be cleared by
waiting on p9_conn->equeue. After that, polling is stopped and the
trans is destroyed. This sequence has a few problems.
* Read and write works were never cancelled and the p9_conn can be
destroyed while the works are running as r/w works remove requests
from the list and dereference the p9_conn from them.
* The list emptiness wait using p9_conn->equeue wouldn't trigger
because p9_conn_cancel() always clears all the lists and the only
way the wait can be triggered is to have another task to issue a
request between the slim window between p9_conn_cancel() and the
wait, which isn't safe under the current implementation with or
without the wait.
This patch fixes the problem by first stopping poll, which can
schedule r/w works, first and cancle r/w works which guarantees that
r/w works are not and will not run from that point and then calling
p9_conn_cancel() and do the rest of destruction.

There's no need to register the master netdev with cfg80211,
in fact, this is quite dangerous and lead to having to add
checks for the master interface all over the config handlers.
This patch removes the "ieee80211_ptr" from the master iface
in favour of having a small netdev_priv() associated with
the master interface that stores the ieee80211_local pointer.
Because of this, a lot of code in the configuration handlers
can go away. To make this patch easier to verify I have also
removed a number of wiphy_priv() calls in favour of getting
the sdata first and then the local pointer from that.

The reasons for disabling paccept() are as follows:
* The API is more complex than needed. There is AFAICS no demonstrated
use case that the sigset argument of this syscall serves that couldn't
equally be served by the use of pselect/ppoll/epoll_pwait + traditional
accept(). Roland seems to concur with this opinion
(http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/723953/focus=732255). I
have (more than once) asked Ulrich to explain otherwise
(http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/723952/focus=731018), but he
does not respond, so one is left to assume that he doesn't know of such
a case.
* The use of a sigset argument is not consistent with other I/O APIs
that can block on a single file descriptor (e.g., read(), recv(),
connect()).
* The behavior of paccept() when interrupted by a signal is IMO strange:
the kernel restarts the system call if SA_RESTART was set for the
handler. I think that it should not do this -- that it should behave
consistently with paccept()/ppoll()/epoll_pwait(), which never restart,
regardless of SA_RESTART. The reasoning here is that the very purpose
of paccept() is to wait for a connection or a signal, and that
restarting in the latter case is probably never useful. (Note: Roland
disagrees on this point, believing that rather paccept() should be
consistent with accept() in its behavior wrt EINTR
(http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/723953/focus=732255).)
I believe that instead, a simpler API, consistent with Ulrich's other
recent additions, is preferable:
accept4(int fd, struct sockaddr *sa, socklen_t *salen, ind flags);
(This simpler API was originally proposed by Ulrich:
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.network/92072)
If this simpler API is added, then if we later decide that the sigset
argument really is required, then a suitable bit in 'flags' could be added
to indicate the presence of the sigset argument.
At this point, I am hoping we either will get a counter-argument from
Ulrich about why we really do need paccept()'s sigset argument, or that he
will resubmit the original accept4() patch.

This patch add support for keeping an additional character alias
associated with an network interface. This is useful for maintaining
the SNMP ifAlias value which is a user defined value. Routers use this
to hold information like which circuit or line it is connected to. It
is just an arbitrary text label on the network device.
There are two exposed interfaces with this patch, the value can be
read/written either via netlink or sysfs.
This could be maintained just by the snmp daemon, but it is more
generally useful for other management tools, and the kernel is good
place to act as an agreed upon interface to store it.

The nr_conns variable in the sync message header is only eight bits wide
and will overflow on interfaces with a large MTU. As a result the backup
won't parse all connections contained in the sync buffer. On regular
ethernet with an MTU of 1500 this isn't a problem, because we can't
overflow the value, but consider jumbo frames being used on a cross-over
connection between both directors.
We now restrict the size of the sync buffer, so that we never put more

I'm trying to use the TCP_MAXSEG option to setsockopt() to set the MSS
for both sides of a bidirectional connection.
man tcp says: "If this option is set before connection establishment, it
also changes the MSS value announced to the other end in the initial
packet."
However, the kernel only uses the MTU/route cache to set the advertised
MSS. That means if I set the MSS to, say, 500 before calling connect(),
I will send at most 500-byte packets, but I will still receive 1500-byte
packets in reply.
This is a bug, either in the kernel or the documentation.
This patch (applies to latest net-2.6) reduces the advertised value to
that requested by the user as long as setsockopt() is called before
connect() or accept(). This seems like the behavior that one would
expect as well as that which is documented.
I've tried to make sure that things that depend on the advertised MSS
are set correctly.

Main benefit in this is that we can then freely point

there's no longer need to know what would be the count
changes involve, and since this is really used only as a
terminator, unnecessary work is one time walk at most,
and if some retransmissions are necessary after that
point later on, the walk is not full waste of time
anyway.
Since retransmit_high must be kept valid, all lost
markers must ensure that.

rexmittable skbs can appear, mtu probe does them. So

Currently, virtual interface pointers passed to drivers might be
from monitor interfaces and as such completely uninitialised
because we do not tell the driver about monitor interfaces when
those are created. Instead of passing them, we should therefore
indicate to the driver that there is no information; do that by
passing a NULL value and adjust drivers to cope with it.
As a result, some mac80211 API functions also need to cope with
a NULL vif pointer so drivers can still call them unconditionally.
Also, when injecting frames we really don't want to pass NULL all
the time, if we know we are the source address of a frame and have
a local interface for that address, we can to use that interface.
This also helps with processing the frame correctly for that
interface which will help the 802.11w implementation. It's not
entirely correct for VLANs or WDS interfaces because there the MAC
address isn't unique, but it's already a lot better than what we
do now.
Finally, when injecting without a matching local interface, don't
assign sequence numbers at all.
