sunvnet: clean up objects created in vnet_new() on vnet_exit()

2014-08-06T17:07:39Z

[ Upstream commit a4b70a07ed12a71131cab7adce2ce91c71b37060 ] Nothing cleans up the objects created by vnet_new(), they are completely leaked. vnet_exit(), after doing the vio_unregister_driver() to clean up ports, should call a helper function that iterates over vnet_list and cleans up those objects. This includes unregister_netdevice() as well as free_netdev(). Signed-off-by: Sowmini Varadhan Acked-by: Dave Kleikamp Reviewed-by: Karl Volz Signed-off-by: David S.

igb: do a reset on SR-IOV re-init if device is down

2014-08-06T17:07:37Z

commit 76252723e88681628a3dbb9c09c963e095476f73 upstream. To properly re-initialize SR-IOV it is necessary to reset the device even if it is already down. Not doing this may result in Tx unit hangs.

iwlwifi: dvm: don't enable CTS to self

2014-08-06T17:07:34Z

commit 43d826ca5979927131685cc2092c7ce862cb91cd upstream. We should always prefer to use full RTS protection. Using CTS to self gives a meaningless improvement, but this flow is much harder for the firmware which is likely to have issues with it.

mwifiex: fix Tx timeout issue

2014-08-06T17:07:33Z

commit d76744a93246eccdca1106037e8ee29debf48277 upstream. https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=70191 https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=77581 It is observed that sometimes Tx packet is downloaded without adding driver's txpd header. This results in firmware parsing garbage data as packet length. Sometimes firmware is unable to read the packet if length comes out as invalid. This stops further traffic and timeout occurs. The root cause is uninitialized fields in tx_info(skb->cb) of packet used to get garbage values. In this case if MWIFIEX_BUF_FLAG_REQUEUED_PKT flag is mistakenly set, txpd header was skipped. This patch makes sure that tx_info is correctly initialized to fix the problem.

net/mlx4_core: Preserve pci_dev_data after __mlx4_remove_one()

2014-07-11T12:33:58Z

[ Upstream commit befdf8978accecac2e0739e6b5075afc62db37fe ] This patch wrap up a helper function __mlx4_remove_one() which does the tear down function but preserve the drv_data. Functions like mlx4_pci_err_detected() and mlx4_restart_one() will call this one with out releasing drvdata. Signed-off-by: Wei Yang Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings

mlx4_core: Stash PCI ID driver_data in mlx4_priv structure

2014-07-11T12:33:58Z

[ No upstream commit, this is a cherry picked backport enabler. ] That way we can check flags later on, when we've finished with the pci_device_id structure. This is a backport. Signed-off-by: Roland Dreier Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings

b43: fix frequency reported on G-PHY with /new/ firmware

2014-07-11T12:33:53Z

commit 2fc68eb122c7ea6cd5be1fe7d6650c0beb2f4f40 upstream. Support for firmware rev 508+ was added years ago, but we never noticed it reports channel in a different way for G-PHY devices. Instead of offset from 2400 MHz it simply passes channel id (AKA hw_value). So far it was (most probably) affecting monitor mode users only, but the following recent commit made it noticeable for quite everybody: commit 3afc2167f60a327a2c1e1e2600ef209a3c2b75b7 Author: Emmanuel Grumbach Date: Tue Mar 4 16:50:13 2014 +0200 cfg80211/mac80211: ignore signal if the frame was heard on wrong channel Reported-by: Aaro Koskinen Signed-off-by: Rafał Miłecki Tested-by: Aaro Koskinen Signed-off-by: John W.

rt2x00: disable TKIP on USB

commit 8edcb0ba0d56f5914eef11eda6db8bfe74eb9ca8 upstream. On USB we can not get atomically TKIP key. We have to disable support for TKIP acceleration on USB hardware to avoid bug as showed bellow.

can: peak_pci: prevent use after free at netdev removal

2014-06-09T12:29:14Z

commit 0b5a958cf4df3a5cd578b861471e62138f55c85e upstream. As remarked by Christopher R. Baker in his post at http://marc.info/?l=linux-can&m=139707295706465&w=2 there's a possibility for an use after free condition at device removal. This simplified patch introduces an additional variable to prevent the issue. Thanks for catching this. Reported-by: Christopher R.

commit 29830406415c227a54af429d7b300aabd4754237 upstream. Change the way channels objects are linked together by peak_pci_probe() avoiding any kernel oops when driver is removed. Side effect is that the list is now browsed from last to first channel. Signed-off-by: Stephane Grosjean Signed-off-by: Marc Kleine-Budde Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings
