      vxlan: fix nonfunctional neigh_reduce() · 4b29dba9
      David Stevens authored
      
      
      The VXLAN neigh_reduce() code is completely non-functional since
      check-in. Specific errors:
      
      1) The original code drops all packets with a multicast destination address,
      	even though neighbor solicitations are sent to the solicited-node
      	address, a multicast address. The code after this check was never run.
      2) The neighbor table lookup used the IPv6 header destination, which is the
      	solicited node address, rather than the target address from the
      	neighbor solicitation. So neighbor lookups would always fail if it
      	got this far. Also for L3MISSes.
      3) The code calls ndisc_send_na(), which does a send on the tunnel device.
      	The context for neigh_reduce() is the transmit path, vxlan_xmit(),
      	where the host or a bridge-attached neighbor is trying to transmit
      	a neighbor solicitation. To respond to it, the tunnel endpoint needs
      	to do a *receive* of the appropriate neighbor advertisement. Doing a
      	send, would only try to send the advertisement, encapsulated, to the
      	remote destinations in the fdb -- hosts that definitely did not do the
      	corresponding solicitation.
      4) The code uses the tunnel endpoint IPv6 forwarding flag to determine the
      	isrouter flag in the advertisement. This has nothing to do with whether
      	or not the target is a router, and generally won't be set since the
      	tunnel endpoint is bridging, not routing, traffic.
      
      	The patch below creates a proxy neighbor advertisement to respond to
      neighbor solicitions as intended, providing proper IPv6 support for neighbor
      reduction.

      ====================
      net: davinci_emac: Fix interrupt requests and error handling
      
      since commit 6892b41d (Linux 3.11) the
      davinci_emac driver is broken. After doing ifconfig down, ifconfig up,
      requesting the interrupts for the driver fails. The interface remains dead
      until the board is rebooted.
      
      The first patch in this patchset reverts commit
      6892b41d
      
       partially and makes the driver
      useable again.
      
      During the work on the first patch, a number of bugs in the error handling
      of the driver's ndo_open code were found. The second patch fixes these bugs.
      
      I believe the first patch meets the rules for stable kernels, I therefore added
      the stable tag to this patch. The second patch is just cleanup, the code
      that is fixed by this patch is only executed in case of an error.

      net: davinci_emac: Fix rollback of emac_dev_open() · cd11cf50
      Christian Riesch authored
      
      
      If an error occurs during the initialization in emac_dev_open() (the
      driver's ndo_open function), interrupts, DMA descriptors etc. must be freed.
      The current rollback code is buggy in several ways.
      
        1) Freeing the interrupts. The current code will not free all interrupts
           that were requested by the driver. Furthermore,  the code tries to do a
           platform_get_resource(priv->pdev, IORESOURCE_IRQ, -1) in its last
           iteration.
      
           This patch fixes these bugs.
      
        2) Wrong order of err: and rollback: labels. If the setup of the PHY in
           the code fails, the interrupts that have been requested before are
           not freed:
      
              request irq
                      if requesting irqs fails, goto rollback
              setup phy
                      if phy setup fails, goto err
              return 0
      
           rollback:
              free irqs
           err:
      
           This patch brings the code into the correct order.
      
        3) The code calls napi_enable() and emac_int_enable(), but does not
           undo both in case of an error.
      
           This patch adds calls of emac_int_disable() and napi_disable() to the
           rollback code.
      
        4) RX DMA descriptors are not freed in case of an error: Right before
           requesting the irqs, the function creates DMA descriptors for the
           RX channel. These RX descriptors are never freed when we jump to either
           rollback or err.
      
           This patch adds code for freeing the DMA descriptors in the case of
           an initialization error. This required a modification of
           cpdma_ctrl_stop() in davinci_cpdma.c: We must be able to call this
           function to free the DMA descriptors while the DMA channels are
           in IDLE state (before cpdma_ctlr_start() was called).
      
      Tested on a custom board with the Texas Instruments AM1808.

      net: davinci_emac: Replace devm_request_irq with request_irq · 33b7107f
      Christian Riesch authored
      In commit 6892b41d
      
      
      
      Author: Lad, Prabhakar <prabhakar.csengg@gmail.com>
      Date:   Tue Jun 25 21:24:51 2013 +0530
      net: davinci: emac: Convert to devm_* api
      
      the call of request_irq is replaced by devm_request_irq and the call
      of free_irq is removed. But since interrupts are requested in
      emac_dev_open, doing ifconfig up/down on the board requests the
      interrupts again each time, causing devm_request_irq to fail. The
      interface is dead until the device is rebooted.
      
      This patch reverts said commit partially: It changes the driver back
      to use request_irq instead of devm_request_irq, puts free_irq back in
      place, but keeps the remaining changes of the original patch.

      x86/amd/numa: Fix northbridge quirk to assign correct NUMA node · 847d7970
      Daniel J Blueman authored
      
      
      For systems with multiple servers and routed fabric, all
      northbridges get assigned to the first server. Fix this by also
      using the node reported from the PCI bus. For single-fabric
      systems, the northbriges are on PCI bus 0 by definition, which
      are on NUMA node 0 by definition, so this is invarient on most
      systems.
      
      Tested on fam10h and fam15h single and multi-fabric systems and
      candidate for stable.

        wireless folks under no uncertain terms that they must severely scale
        back the extent of the fixes they are submitting this late in the
        game.
      
        Anyways:
      
         1) vmxnet3's netpoll doesn't perform the equivalent of an ISR, which
            is the correct implementation, like it should.  Instead it does
            something like a NAPI poll operation.  This leads to crashes.
      
            From Neil Horman and Arnd Bergmann.
      
         2) Segmentation of SKBs requires proper socket orphaning of the
            fragments, otherwise we might access stale state released by the
            release callbacks.
      
            This is a 5 patch fix, but the initial patches are giving
            variables and such significantly clearer names such that the
            actual fix itself at the end looks trivial.
      
            From Michael S.  Tsirkin.
      
         3) TCP control block release can deadlock if invoked from a timer on
            an already "owned" socket.  Fix from Eric Dumazet.
      
         4) In the bridge multicast code, we must validate that the
            destination address of general queries is the link local all-nodes
            multicast address.  From Linus Lüssing.
      
         5) The x86 BPF JIT support for negative offsets puts the parameter
            for the helper function call in the wrong register.  Fix from
            Alexei Starovoitov.
      
         6) The descriptor type used for RTL_GIGA_MAC_VER_17 chips in the
            r8169 driver is incorrect.  Fix from Hayes Wang.
      
         7) The xen-netback driver tests skb_shinfo(skb)->gso_type bits to see
            if a packet is a GSO frame, but that's not the correct test.  It
            should use skb_is_gso(skb) instead.  Fix from Wei Liu.
      
         8) Negative msg->msg_namelen values should generate an error, from
            Matthew Leach.
      
         9) at86rf230 can deadlock because it takes the same lock from it's
            ISR and it's hard_start_xmit method, without disabling interrupts
            in the latter.  Fix from Alexander Aring.
      
        10) The FEC driver's restart doesn't perform operations in the correct
            order, so promiscuous settings can get lost.  Fix from Stefan
            Wahren.
      
        11) Fix SKB leak in SCTP cookie handling, from Daniel Borkmann.
      
        12) Reference count and memory leak fixes in TIPC from Ying Xue and
            Erik Hugne.
      
        13) Forced eviction in inet_frag_evictor() must strictly make sure all
            frags are deleted, otherwise module unload (f.e.  6lowpan) can
            crash.  Fix from Florian Westphal.
      
        14) Remove assumptions in AF_UNIX's use of csum_partial() (which it
            uses as a hash function), which breaks on PowerPC.  From Anton
            Blanchard.
      
            The main gist of the issue is that csum_partial() is defined only
            as a value that, once folded (f.e.  via csum_fold()) produces a
            correct 16-bit checksum.  It is legitimate, therefore, for
            csum_partial() to produce two different 32-bit values over the
            same data if their respective alignments are different.
      
        15) Fix endiannes bug in MAC address handling of ibmveth driver, also
            from Anton Blanchard.
      
        16) Error checks for ipv6 exthdrs offload registration are reversed,
            from Anton Nayshtut.
      
        17) Externally triggered ipv6 addrconf routes should count against the
            garbage collection threshold.  Fix from Sabrina Dubroca.
      
        18) The PCI shutdown handler added to the bnx2 driver can wedge the
            chip if it was not brought up earlier already, which in particular
            causes the firmware to shut down the PHY.  Fix from Michael Chan.
      
        19) Adjust the sanity WARN_ON_ONCE() in qdisc_list_add() because as
            currently coded it can and does trigger in legitimate situations.
            From Eric Dumazet.
      
        20) BNA driver fails to build on ARM because of a too large udelay()
            call, fix from Ben Hutchings.
      
        21) Fair-Queue qdisc holds locks during GFP_KERNEL allocations, fix
            from Eric Dumazet.
      
        22) The vlan passthrough ops added in the previous release causes a
            regression in source MAC address setting of outgoing headers in
            some circumstances.  Fix from Peter Boström"

      ACPI / sleep: Add extra checks for HW Reduced ACPI mode sleep states · a4e90bed
      Rafael J. Wysocki authored
      If the HW Reduced ACPI mode bit is set in the FADT, ACPICA uses
      the optional sleep control and sleep status registers for making
      the system enter sleep states (including S5), so it is not possible
      to use system sleep states or power it off using ACPI if the HW
      Reduced ACPI mode bit is set and those registers are not available.
      
      For this reason, add a new function, acpi_sleep_state_supported(),
      checking if the HW Reduced ACPI mode bit is set and whether or not
      system sleep states are usable in that case in addition to checking
      the return value of acpi_get_sleep_type_data() and make the ACPI
      sleep setup routines use that function to check the availability of
      system sleep states.
      
      Among other things, this prevents the kernel from attempting to
      use ACPI for powering off HW Reduced ACPI systems without the sleep
      control and sleep status registers, because ACPI power off doesn't
      have a chance to work on them.  That allows alternative power off
      mechanisms that may actually work to be used on those systems.  The
      affected machines include Dell Venue 8 Pro, Asus T100TA, Haswell
      Desktop SDP and Ivy Bridge EP Demo depot.
