[IPV6]: Do no rely on skb->dst before it is assigned.

2007-09-08T19:21:38Z

Because skb->dst is assigned in ip6_route_input(), it is really bad to use it in hop-by-hop option handler(s). Closes: Bug #8450 (Eric Sesterhenn ) Signed-off-by: YOSHIFUJI Hideaki Signed-off-by: David S. Miller Signed-off-by: Willy Tarreau

[PATCH] Revert "Keep rfcomm_dev on the list until it is freed"

2007-08-28T10:14:54Z

Randy Dunlap and Boris B. Zhmurov reported build failure of rfcomm/tty.c since 2.6.20.17. Marcel Holtmann confirmed that the following patch was inappropriate for this kernel. Remove it. This reverts commit 8c25e9c9cd1fed0d5f57075b584c39a4b9af9830. Cc: Marcel Holtmann Signed-off-by: Willy Tarreau

[PATCH] softmac: Fix deadlock of wx_set_essid with assoc work

2007-08-25T15:24:18Z

The essid wireless extension does deadlock against the assoc mutex, as we don't unlock the assoc mutex when flushing the workqueue, which also holds the lock. Signed-off-by: Michael Buesch Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman Signed-off-by: Willy Tarreau

[PATCH] IPV6: /proc/net/anycast6 unbalanced inet6_dev refcnt

2007-08-25T15:24:17Z

Reading /proc/net/anycast6 when there is no anycast address on an interface results in an ever-increasing inet6_dev reference count, as well as a reference to the netdevice you can't get rid of.

[PATCH] Keep rfcomm_dev on the list until it is freed

2007-08-25T15:24:16Z

This patch changes the RFCOMM TTY release process so that the TTY is kept on the list until it is really freed. A new device flag is used to keep track of released TTYs. Signed-off-by: Ville Tervo Signed-off-by: Marcel Holtmann Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman Signed-off-by: Willy Tarreau

[PATCH] Hangup TTY before releasing rfcomm_dev

2007-08-25T15:24:16Z

The core problem is that RFCOMM socket layer ioctl can release rfcomm_dev struct while RFCOMM TTY layer is still actively using it. Calling tty_vhangup() is needed for a synchronous hangup before rfcomm_dev is freed.

[PATCH] nfsd: fix possible oops on re-insertion of rpcsec_gss modules

2007-08-25T15:24:14Z

The handling of the re-registration case is wrong here; the "test" that was returned from auth_domain_lookup will not be used again, so that reference should be put. And auth_domain_lookup never did anything with "new" in this case, so we should just clean it up ourself. Thanks to Akinobu Mita for bug report, analysis, and testing.

[PATCH] softmac: Fix ESSID problem

2007-08-25T15:24:09Z

Victor Porton reported that the SoftMAC layer had random problem when setting the ESSID : http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8686 After investigation, it turned out to be worse, the SoftMAC layer is left in an inconsistent state. The fix is pretty trivial. Signed-off-by: Jean Tourrilhes Acked-by: Michael Buesch Acked-by: Larry Finger Acked-by: John W. Linville Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman Signed-off-by: Willy Tarreau

[PATCH] Fix TCP IPV6 MD5 bug.

2007-08-25T15:24:01Z

[TCPv6] MD5SIG: Ensure to reset allocation count to avoid panic. After clearing all passwords for IPv6 peers, we need to set allocation count to zero as well as we free the storage. Otherwise, we panic when a user trys to (re)add a password. Discovered and fixed by MIYAJIMA Mitsuharu . Signed-off-by: YOSHIFUJI Hideaki Signed-off-by: David S.
