Gertjan van Wingerde 93b6bd26b7 rt2x00: Disable powersaving for rt61pci and rt2800pci.
We've had many reports of rt61pci failures with powersaving enabled.
Therefore, as a stop-gap measure, disable powersaving of the rt61pci
until we have found a proper solution.
Also disable powersaving on rt2800pci as it most probably will show
the same problem.

Julia Lawall 855da5e07e drivers/net/wireless: Correct code taking the size of a pointer
sizeof(iv16) and sizeof(iv32) are the sizes of pointers.  Change them to
the size of the copied data.

Furthermore, iveiv_entry is a local structure that has just been
initialized and is not visible outside this function.  Thus, there would
seem to be no point to copy data into it.  The order of the arguments is
thus changed to copy the data into the parameters, which are provided as
pointers, suggesting in this case that they should be used to return values.

A simplified version of the semantic patch that finds the first problem is as
follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/)

Benoit Papillault 4d91f9f373 ath9k: Last fix for TX software padding.
First, we copy/paste the padding stuff from ath9k_tx to ath_tx_cabq since it
needs to same kind of padding, but for internally generated beacons.
Next, software padding done on TX needs to be removed before calling
ieee80211_tx_status. The code was already there in ath_tx_complete but it
was wrong. Fix it by using ath9k_cmn_padpos. This later code has been
tested by sending packets to a monitor interface and reading packets from the
same interface.

Reinette Chatre f8701fe3ae iwlwifi: power up all devices for EEPROM read
Recent commits "iwlwifi: remove power-wasting calls to apm_ops.init()" and
"iwlagn: power up device before initializing EEPROM" had the goal of
reducing device power consumption from the time the module is loaded until
the interface is brought up and the device's power saving mechanisms kick
in. The idea is that once the module is loaded there is no need for the
device to consume power until the interface is brought up.

With the current solution the device is only powered up during EEPROM read,
and then so also only if the EEPROM type is OTP. We have found that on
certain platforms even non-OTP devices require power to be up during EEPROM
read. On these platforms the driver never loads and the system log contains
the following:

iwlagn 0000:03:00.0: MAC is in deep sleep!.  CSR_GP_CNTRL = 0x080403D8

We thus now power up all devices during EEPROM read.

Luis R. Rodriguez 512414b0be ath5k: enable EEPROM checksum check
Without this we have no gaurantee of the integrity of the
EEPROM and are likely to encounter a lot of bogus bug reports
due to actual issues on the EEPROM. With the EEPROM checksum
check in place we can easily rule those issues out.

If you run patch during a revert *you* have a card with a busted
EEPROM and only older kernel will support that concoction. This
patch is a trade off between not accepitng bogus EEPROMs and
avoiding bogus bug reports allowing developers to focus instead
on real concrete issues.

If stable keeps bogus bug reports because of a possibly busted EEPROM
feel free to apply this there too.

Stanislav Brabec e0188829cb b44 WOL setup: one-bit-off stack corruption kernel panic fix
About 50% of shutdowns of b44 Ethernet adapter ends by kernel panic
with kernels compiled with stack-protector.

Checking b44_magic_pattern() return values, one call of
b44_magic_pattern() returns 127. It means, that set_bit(128, pmask)
was called on line 1509. It means that bit 0 of 17th byte of pmask was
overwritten. But pmask has only 16 bytes. Stack corruption happens.
 
It seems that set_bit() on line 1509 always writes one bit off.

The fix does not only solve the stack corruption, but also makes Wake
On LAN working on my onboard B44 on Asus A7V-333X mainboard.

Ilpo Järvinen 77722b177a tcp: fix retrans_stamp advancing in error cases
It can happen, that tcp_retransmit_skb fails due to some error.
In such cases we might end up into a state where tp->retrans_out
is zero but that's only because we removed the TCPCB_SACKED_RETRANS
bit from a segment but couldn't retransmit it because of the error
that happened. Therefore some assumptions that retrans_out checks
are based do not necessarily hold, as there still can be an old
retransmission but that is only visible in TCPCB_EVER_RETRANS bit.
As retransmission happen in sequential order (except for some very
rare corner cases), it's enough to check the head skb for that bit.

Main reason for all this complexity is the fact that connection dying
time now depends on the validity of the retrans_stamp, in particular,
that successive retransmissions of a segment must not advance
retrans_stamp under any conditions. It seems after quick thinking that
this has relatively low impact as eventually TCP will go into CA_Loss
and either use the existing check for !retrans_stamp case or send a
retransmission successfully, setting a new base time for the dying
timer (can happen only once). At worst, the dying time will be
approximately the double of the intented time. In addition,
tcp_packet_delayed() will return wrong result (has some cc aspects
but due to rarity of these errors, it's hardly an issue).

One of retrans_stamp clearing happens indirectly through first going
into CA_Open state and then a later ACK lets the clearing to happen.
Thus tcp_try_keep_open has to be modified too.

Thanks to Damian Lukowski <damian@tvk.rwth-aachen.de> for hinting
that this possibility exists (though the particular case discussed
didn't after all have it happening but was just a debug patch
artifact).

Damian Lukowski 07f29bc5bb tcp: Stalling connections: Fix timeout calculation routine
This patch fixes a problem in the TCP connection timeout calculation.
Currently, timeout decisions are made on the basis of the current
tcp_time_stamp and retrans_stamp, which is usually set at the first
retransmission.
However, if the retransmission fails in tcp_retransmit_skb(),
retrans_stamp is not updated and remains zero. This leads to wrong
decisions in retransmits_timed_out() if tcp_time_stamp is larger than
the specified timeout, which is very likely.
In this case, the TCP connection dies after the first attempted
(and unsuccessful) retransmission.

With this patch, tcp_skb_cb->when is used instead, when retrans_stamp
is not available.

This bug has been introduced together with retransmits_timed_out() in
2.6.32, as the number of retransmissions has been used for timeout
decisions before. The corresponding commit was
6fa12c8503 (Revert Backoff [v3]:
Calculate TCP's connection close threshold as a time value.).

Thanks to Ilpo Järvinen for code suggestions and Frederic Leroy for

Asier Llano 1e4e0767ec net/mpc5200: Fix locking on fec_mpc52xx driver
Fix the locking scheme on the fec_mpc52xx driver.  This device can
receive IRQs from three sources; the FEC itself, the tx DMA, and the
rx DMA.  Mutual exclusion was handled by taking a spin_lock() in the
critical regions, but because the handlers are run with IRQs enabled,
spin_lock() is insufficient and the driver can end up interrupting
a critical region anyway from another IRQ.

Asier Llano discovered that this occurs when an error IRQ is raised
in the middle of handling rx irqs which resulted in an sk_buff memory
leak.

In addition, locking is spotty at best in the driver and inspection
revealed quite a few places with insufficient locking.

This patch is based on Asier's initial work, but reworks a number of
things so that locks are held for as short a time as possible, so
that spin_lock_irqsave() is used everywhere, and so the locks are
dropped when calling into the network stack (because the lock only
protects the hardware interface; not the network stack).

Boot tested on a lite5200 with an NFS root.  Has not been performance
tested.

Eric Dumazet 3cdaedae63 tcp: Fix a connect() race with timewait sockets
When we find a timewait connection in __inet_hash_connect() and reuse
it for a new connection request, we have a race window, releasing bind
list lock and reacquiring it in __inet_twsk_kill() to remove timewait
socket from list.

Another thread might find the timewait socket we already chose, leading to
list corruption and crashes.

Fix is to remove timewait socket from bind list before releasing the bind lock.

Note: This problem happens if sysctl_tcp_tw_reuse is set.

Eric Dumazet 9327f7053e tcp: Fix a connect() race with timewait sockets
First patch changes __inet_hash_nolisten() and __inet6_hash()
to get a timewait parameter to be able to unhash it from ehash
at same time the new socket is inserted in hash.

This makes sure timewait socket wont be found by a concurrent
writer in __inet_check_established()

Eric Dumazet 60d5113428 ixgbe: Fix TX stats accounting
Here is an updated version, because ixgbe_get_ethtool_stats()
needs to call dev_get_stats() or "ethtool -S" wont give
correct tx_bytes/tx_packets values.

Several cpus can update netdev->stats.tx_bytes & netdev->stats.tx_packets
in parallel. In this case, TX stats are under estimated and false sharing
takes place.

After a pktgen session sending exactly 200000000 packets :
# ifconfig fiber0 | grep TX
          TX packets:198501982 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0

Multi queue devices should instead use txq->tx_bytes & txq->tx_packets
in their xmit() method (appropriate txq lock already held by caller, no
cache line miss), or use appropriate locking.

After patch, same pktgen session gives :

# ifconfig fiber0 | grep TX
          TX packets:200000000 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0

Bruce Allan 3421eecdee e1000e: only perform ESB2 MDIC workaround on certain configurations
A workaround added for all ESB2 devices (adds a delay for all MDIC accesses
which resolves an issue with the MDIC ready bit being set prematurely) is
applicable only to devices in which the MAC-PHY interconnect is not
operating in a certain mode with in-band MDIO.  Check the control register
for the operating mode and enable the workaround accordingly.

Bruce Allan 0781895067 e1000e: replace incorrect use of GG82563_REG macro
The GG82563_REG() macro should not be used to determine the offset provided
to the e1000e_[read|write]_kmrn_reg() functions since the first argument to
the macro is already implied and gets masked off anyway in the functions.
The resultant register reads/writes with this patch are functionally the
same as before.

Linus Torvalds a252e749f1 sctp: fix compile error due to sysctl mismerge
I messed up the merge in d7fc02c7ba, where
the conflict in question wasn't just about CTL_UNNUMBERED being removed,
but the 'strategy' field is too (sysctl handling is now done through the
/proc interface, with no duplicate protocols for reading the data).
