llc: Fix race condition in llc_ui_recvmsg

2012-01-24T20:33:19Z

There is a race on sk_receive_queue between llc_ui_recvmsg and sock_queue_rcv_skb. Our current solution is to protect skb_eat in llc_ui_recvmsg with the queue spinlock. Signed-off-by: Radu Iliescu Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

llc: llc_cmsg_rcv was getting called after sk_eat_skb.

2011-12-19T20:58:52Z

Received non stream protocol packets were calling llc_cmsg_rcv that used a skb after that skb was released by sk_eat_skb. This caused received STP packets to generate kernel panics. Signed-off-by: Alexandru Juncu Signed-off-by: Kunjan Naik Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net: Add export.h for EXPORT_SYMBOL/THIS_MODULE to non-modules

2011-10-31T23:30:30Z

These files are non modular, but need to export symbols using the macros now living in export.h -- call out the include so that things won't break when we remove the implicit presence of module.h from everywhere. Signed-off-by: Paul Gortmaker

llc: Fix length check in llc_fixup_skb().

2011-04-12T01:59:05Z

Fixes bugzilla #32872 The LLC stack pretends to support non-linear skbs but there is a direct use of skb_tail_pointer() in llc_fixup_skb(). Use pskb_may_pull() to see if data_size bytes remain and can be accessed linearly in the packet, instead of direct pointer checks. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

llc: avoid skb_clone() if there is only one handler

While doing this analysis, I found a refcount bug in llc, I'll send a patch for net-2.6 Meanwhile, here is the patch for net-next-2.6 Your patch then can be applied after mine. Thanks [PATCH] net: RCU conversion of dev_getbyhwaddr() and arp_ioctl() dev_getbyhwaddr() was called under RTNL. Rename it to dev_getbyhwaddr_rcu() and change all its caller to now use RCU locking instead of RTNL. Change arp_ioctl() to use RCU instead of RTNL locking. Note: this fix a dev refcount bug in llc Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net/llc: storing negative error codes in unsigned short

2010-09-17T05:38:23Z

If the alloc_skb() fails then we return 65431 instead of -ENOBUFS (-105). Signed-off-by: Dan Carpenter Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net/llc: make opt unsigned in llc_ui_setsockopt()

2010-09-13T19:44:10Z

The members of struct llc_sock are unsigned so if we pass a negative value for "opt" it can cause a sign bug. Also it can cause an integer overflow when we multiply "opt * HZ". CC: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Dan Carpenter Signed-off-by: David S. Miller
