sfc: Fix efx_rx_buf_offset() for recycled pages

2013-10-01T15:55:48Z

This bug fix is only for stable branches older than 3.10. The bug was fixed upstream by commit 2768935a4660 ('sfc: reuse pages to avoid DMA mapping/unmapping costs'), but that change is totally unsuitable for stable. Commit b590ace09d51 ('sfc: Fix efx_rx_buf_offset() in the presence of swiotlb') added an explicit page_offset member to struct efx_rx_buffer, which must be set consistently with the u.page and dma_addr fields. However, it failed to add the necessary assignment in efx_resurrect_rx_buffer(). It also did not correct the calculation of efx_rx_buffer::dma_addr in efx_resurrect_rx_buffer(), which assumes that DMA-mapping a page will result in a page-aligned DMA address (exactly what swiotlb violates). Add the assignment of efx_rx_buffer::page_offset and change the calculation of dma_addr to make use of it. Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings Cc: David Miller Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

rt2800: fix wrong TX power compensation

2013-10-01T15:55:47Z

commit 6e956da2027c767859128b9bfef085cf2a8e233b upstream. We should not do temperature compensation on devices without EXTERNAL_TX_ALC bit set (called DynamicTxAgcControl on vendor driver). Such devices can have totally bogus TSSI parameters on the EEPROM, but still threaded by us as valid and result doing wrong TX power calculations. This fix inability to connect to AP on slightly longer distance on some Ralink chips/devices. Reported-and-tested-by: Fabien ADAM Signed-off-by: Stanislaw Gruszka Signed-off-by: John W.

commit 026d5b07c03458f9c0ccd19c3850564a5409c325 upstream. Otherwise in some cases, EAPOL frames might be filtered during the initial handshake, causing delays and assoc failures. Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau Signed-off-by: John W. Linville Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

tun: signedness bug in tun_get_user()

[ Upstream commit 15718ea0d844e4816dbd95d57a8a0e3e264ba90e ] The recent fix d9bf5f1309 "tun: compare with 0 instead of total_len" is not totally correct. Because "len" and "sizeof()" are size_t type, that means they are never less than zero. Signed-off-by: Dan Carpenter Acked-by: Michael S. Tsirkin Acked-by: Neil Horman Signed-off-by: David S.

ath9k_htc: Restore skb headroom when returning skb to mac80211

2013-09-08T04:49:32Z

commit d2e9fc141e2aa21f4b35ee27072d84e9aa6e2ba0 upstream. ath9k_htc adds padding between the 802.11 header and the payload during TX by moving the header. When handing the frame back to mac80211 for TX status handling the header is not moved back into its original position. This can result in a too small skb headroom when entering ath9k_htc again (due to a soft retransmission for example) causing an skb_under_panic oops. Fix this by moving the 802.11 header back into its original position before returning the frame to mac80211 as other drivers like rt2x00 or ath5k do.

Hostap: copying wrong data prism2_ioctl_giwaplist()

commit 909bd5926d474e275599094acad986af79671ac9 upstream. We want the data stored in "addr" and "qual", but the extra ampersands mean we are copying stack data instead. Signed-off-by: Dan Carpenter Signed-off-by: John W. Linville Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

zd1201: do not use stack as URB transfer_buffer

2013-08-29T16:42:12Z

commit 1206ff4ff9d2ef7468a355328bc58ac6ebf5be44 upstream. Patch fixes zd1201 not to use stack as URB transfer_buffer. URB buffers need to be DMA-able, which stack is not. Patch is only compile tested. Signed-off-by: Jussi Kivilinna Signed-off-by: John W. Linville Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

usbnet: do not pretend to support SG/TSO

2013-08-11T22:38:23Z

[ Upstream commit 20f0170377264e8449b6987041f0bcc4d746d3ed ] usbnet doesn't support yet SG, so drivers should not advertise SG or TSO capabilities, as they allow TCP stack to build large TSO packets that need to be linearized and might use order-5 pages. This adds an extra copy overhead and possible allocation failures. Current code ignore skb_linearize() return code so crashes are even possible. Best is to not pretend SG/TSO is supported, and add this again when/if usbnet really supports SG for devices who could get a performance gain.
