Annotate hardware config module parameters in drivers/net/can/

2017-04-20T11:02:32Z

When the kernel is running in secure boot mode, we lock down the kernel to prevent userspace from modifying the running kernel image. Whilst this includes prohibiting access to things like /dev/mem, it must also prevent access by means of configuring driver modules in such a way as to cause a device to access or modify the kernel image. To this end, annotate module_param* statements that refer to hardware configuration and indicate for future reference what type of parameter they specify. The parameter parser in the core sees this information and can skip such parameters with an error message if the kernel is locked down. The module initialisation then runs as normal, but just sees whatever the default values for those parameters is. Note that we do still need to do the module initialisation because some drivers have viable defaults set in case parameters aren't specified and some drivers support automatic configuration (e.g. PNP or PCI) in addition to manually coded parameters. This patch annotates drivers in drivers/net/can/.

can: fix assignment of error location in CAN error messages

2015-11-23T08:37:34Z

As Dan Carpenter reported in http://marc.info/?l=linux-can&m=144793696016187 the assignment of the error location in CAN error messages had some bit wise overlaps. Indeed the value to be assigned in data[3] is no bitfield but defines a single value which points to a location inside the CAN frame on the wire. This patch fixes the assignments for the error locations in error messages. Reported-by: Dan Carpenter Signed-off-by: Oliver Hartkopp Signed-off-by: Marc Kleine-Budde

can: cc770: don't touch skb after netif_rx()

2015-07-15T07:04:27Z

There is no guarantee that the skb is in the same state after calling net_receive_skb() or netif_rx(). It might be freed or reused. Not really harmful as its a read access, except you turn on the proper debugging options which catch a use after free. Cc: Wolfgang Grandegger Signed-off-by: Marc Kleine-Budde

can: move can_stats.bus_off++ from can_bus_off into can_change_state

2015-01-20T12:56:53Z

In order to be able to move the stats increment from can_bus_off() into can_change_state(), the increment had to be moved back into code that was using can_bus_off() but not can_change_state(). As a side-effect, this patch fixes the following bugs: * Redundant call to can_bus_off() in c_can. * Bus-off counted twice in xilinx_can.

Pull driver core update from Greg KH: "Here's the set of driver core patches for 3.19-rc1. They are dominated by the removal of the .owner field in platform drivers. They touch a lot of files, but they are "simple" changes, just removing a line in a structure. Other than that, a few minor driver core and debugfs changes. There are some ath9k patches coming in through this tree that have been acked by the wireless maintainers as they relied on the debugfs changes.

can: Unify MTU settings for CAN interfaces

2014-03-17T08:20:16Z

CAN interfaces only support MTU values of 16 (CAN 2.0) and 72 (CAN FD). Setting the MTU to other values is pointless but it does not really hurt. With the introduction of the CAN FD support in drivers/net/can a new function to switch the MTU for CAN FD has been introduced. This patch makes use of this can_change_mtu() function to check for correct MTU settings also in legacy CAN (2.0) devices. Signed-off-by: Oliver Hartkopp Signed-off-by: Marc Kleine-Budde
