| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In order to be able to suppress the use of SRAT tables that 32-bit Linux can't deal with (in one case known to lead to a non-bootable system, unless disabling ACPI altogether), move the "numa=" option handling to common code.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This reverts commit 86b1e8dd83cb ("x86: Make relocatable kernel work with new binutils"). Markus Trippelsdorf reported a boot failure caused by this patch. The real solution to the original patch will likely involve an arch-generic solution to define an overlaid jiffies_64 and jiffies variables. Until that's done and tested on all architectures revert this commit to solve the regression. Reported-and-bisected-by: Markus Trippelsdorf <markus@trippelsdorf.de> Acked-by: "H.

| * ns83820: Avoid bad pointer deref in ns83820_init_one().Jesper Juhl2011-01-181-3/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In drivers/net/ns83820.c::ns83820_init_one() we dynamically allocate memory via alloc_etherdev(). We then call PRIV() on the returned storage which is 'return netdev_priv()'. netdev_priv() takes the pointer it is passed and adds 'ALIGN(sizeof(struct net_device), NETDEV_ALIGN)' to it and returns it. Then we test the resulting pointer for NULL, which it is unlikely to be at this point, and later dereference it. This will go bad if alloc_etherdev() actually returned NULL. This patch reworks the code slightly so that we test for a NULL pointer (and return -ENOMEM) directly after calling alloc_etherdev().

| * ipv6: Silence privacy extensions initializationRomain Francoise2011-01-181-3/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When a network namespace is created (via CLONE_NEWNET), the loopback interface is automatically added to the new namespace, triggering a printk in ipv6_add_dev() if CONFIG_IPV6_PRIVACY is set. This is problematic for applications which use CLONE_NEWNET as part of a sandbox, like Chromium's suid sandbox or recent versions of vsftpd. On a busy machine, it can lead to thousands of useless "lo: Disabled Privacy Extensions" messages appearing in dmesg. It's easy enough to check the status of privacy extensions via the use_tempaddr sysctl, so just removing the printk seems like the most sensible solution.

But the commit "ath9k_hw: fix a noise floor calibration related race condition" makes the PA calibration executed more frequently beased on nfcal_pending value. Running PAOffset calibration lesser than longcal interval doesn't help anything and the worse part is that it causes NF load timeouts and RX deaf conditions. In a very noisy environment, where the distance b/w AP & station is ~10 meter and running a downlink udp traffic with frequent background scan causes "Timeout while waiting for nf to load: AR_PHY_AGC_CONTROL=0x40d1a" and moves the chip into deaf state. This issue was originaly reported in Android platform where the network-manager application does bgscan more frequently on AR9271 chips. (AR9285 family usb device).

| | * | batman-adv: Use "__attribute__" shortcut macrosSven Eckelmann2011-01-163-12/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Linux 2.6.21 defines different macros for __attribute__ which are also used inside batman-adv. The next version of checkpatch.pl warns about the usage of __attribute__((packed))). Linux 2.6.33 defines an extra macro __always_unused which is used to assist source code analyzers and can be used to removed the last existing __attribute__ inside the source code.

| | * | batman-adv: Even Batman should not dereference NULL pointersJesper Juhl2011-01-131-2/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There's a problem in net/batman-adv/unicast.c::frag_send_skb(). dev_alloc_skb() allocates memory and may fail, thus returning NULL. If this happens we'll pass a NULL pointer on to skb_split() which in turn hands it to skb_split_inside_header() from where it gets passed to skb_put() that lets skb_tail_pointer() play with it and that function dereferences it. And thus the bat dies. While I was at it I also moved the call to dev_alloc_skb() above the assignment to 'unicast_packet' since there's no reason to do that assignment if the memory allocation fails.

| * | | qeth: postpone open till recovery is finishedUrsula Braun2011-01-152-4/+32
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The open function of qeth is not executed if the qeth device is in state DOWN or HARDSETUP. A recovery switches from state SOFTSETUP to HARDSETUP to DOWN to HARDSETUP and back to SOFTSETUP. If open and recover are running concurrently, open fails if it hits the states HARDSETUP or DOWN. This patch inserts waiting for recovery finish in the qeth open functions to enable successful qeth device opening in spite of a running recovery.
