net: set name_assign_type in alloc_netdev()

2014-07-15T23:12:48Z

Extend alloc_netdev{,_mq{,s}}() to take name_assign_type as argument, and convert all users to pass NET_NAME_UNKNOWN.

hamradio: 6pack: fix error return code

2014-01-02T08:30:35Z

Set the return variable to an error code as done elsewhere in the function. A simplified version of the semantic match that finds this problem is as follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/) // ( if@p1 (\(ret < 0\|ret != 0\)) { ... return ret; } | ret@p1 = 0 ) ... when != ret = e1 when != &ret *if(...) { ... when != ret = e2 when forall return ret; } // Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall Signed-off-by: David S.

6pack,mkiss: fix lock inconsistency

Lockdep found a locking inconsistency in the mkiss_close function: > kernel: [ INFO: inconsistent lock state ] > kernel: 2.6.39.1 #3 > kernel: --------------------------------- > kernel: inconsistent {IN-SOFTIRQ-R} -> {SOFTIRQ-ON-W} usage. > kernel: ax25ipd/2813 [HC0[0]:SC0[0]:HE1:SE1] takes: > kernel: (disc_data_lock){+++?.-}, at: [] mkiss_close+0x1b/0x90 [mkiss] > kernel: {IN-SOFTIRQ-R} state was registered at: The message hints that disc_data_lock is aquired with softirqs disabled, but does not itself disable softirqs, which can in rare circumstances lead to a deadlock. The same problem is present in the 6pack driver, this patch fixes both by using write_lock_bh instead of write_lock.

Revert "tty: make receive_buf() return the amout of bytes received"

2011-06-03T21:33:24Z

This reverts commit b1c43f82c5aa265442f82dba31ce985ebb7aa71c. It was broken in so many ways, and results in random odd pty issues. It re-introduced the buggy schedule_work() in flush_to_ldisc() that can cause endless work-loops (see commit a5660b41af6a: "tty: fix endless work loop when the buffer fills up"). It also used an "unsigned int" return value fo the ->receive_buf() function, but then made multiple functions return a negative error code, and didn't actually check for the error in the caller. And it didn't actually work at all. BenH bisected down odd tty behavior to it: "It looks like the patch is causing some major malfunctions of the X server for me, possibly related to PTYs. For example, cat'ing a large file in a gnome terminal hangs the kernel for -minutes- in a loop of what looks like flush_to_ldisc/workqueue code, (some ftrace data in the quoted bits further down). ... Some more data: It -looks- like what happens is that the flush_to_ldisc work queue entry constantly re-queues itself (because the PTY is full ?) and the workqueue thread will basically loop forver calling it without ever scheduling, thus starving the consumer process that could have emptied the PTY." which is pretty much exactly the problem we fixed in a5660b41af6a. Milton Miller pointed out the 'unsigned int' issue.

tty: make receive_buf() return the amout of bytes received

2011-04-23T00:31:53Z

it makes it simpler to keep track of the amount of bytes received and simplifies how flush_to_ldisc counts the remaining bytes. It also fixes a bug of lost bytes on n_tty when flushing too many bytes via the USB serial gadget driver.
