qeth: set new mac even if old mac is gone

2012-11-13T19:31:21Z

If the set_mac_address() function of qeth is invoked, qeth deletes the old mac address first on OSA. Only if deletion returns successfully the new mac address is set on OSA. Deletion may return with a return value "MAC not found on OSA". In this case qeth should continue setting the new mac address. When the OSA cable is pulled, OSA forgets any set mac address. If the OSA network interface acts as a slave to a bonding master interface, bonding can invoke the set_mac_address function for failover purposes and depends on successful setting of the new mac address even though the old mac address could no longer be deleted.

qeth: Fix IPA_CMD_QIPASSIST return code handling

2012-11-13T19:31:21Z

Return codes of IPA_CMD_QIPASSIST are not checked, especially the ones which indicate that the command is not supported. As a result, the device driver would not enable all available features on older card generations. This patch adds proper checking and sets the bare minimum in the supported functions flags to avoid follow-on errors.

qeth: fix deadlock between recovery and bonding driver

2012-10-16T18:41:46Z

The recovery thread, when failing, tears down the respective interface. To do so, it needs to obtain the rtnl lock first, as the interface configuration is changed. If another process tries to modify an interface setting at the same time, that process can obtain the rtnl lock first, but the respective callback in the qeth driver will block until recovery has completed - which cannot happen since the calling process already obtained it. In one particular case, the bonding driver acquired the rtnl lock to modify the card's MAC address, while the recovery failed at the same time due to the card being removed. Hence qeth_l2_set_mac_address (implicitly holding the rtnl lock) was waiting on qeth_l2_recover, which deadlocked when waiting on the rtnl lock. This patch uses rtnl_trylock instead of rtnl_lock in the recovery thread. If the lock cannot be obtained, the interface will be left up, but the card state remains in CARD_STATE_RECOVER, which will prevent any further activities on the card.

Pull networking changes from David Miller: 1) GRE now works over ipv6, from Dmitry Kozlov. 2) Make SCTP more network namespace aware, from Eric Biederman. 3) TEAM driver now works with non-ethernet devices, from Jiri Pirko. 4) Make openvswitch network namespace aware, from Pravin B Shelar. 5) IPV6 NAT implementation, from Patrick McHardy. 6) Server side support for TCP Fast Open, from Jerry Chu and others. 7) Packet BPF filter supports MOD and XOR, from Eric Dumazet and Daniel Borkmann. 8) Increate the loopback default MTU to 64K, from Eric Dumazet. 9) Use a per-task rather than per-socket page fragment allocator for outgoing networking traffic. This benefits processes that have very many mostly idle sockets, which is quite common. From Eric Dumazet. 10) Use up to 32K for page fragment allocations, with fallbacks to smaller sizes when higher order page allocations fail. Benefits are a) less segments for driver to process b) less calls to page allocator c) less waste of space. From Eric Dumazet. 11) Allow GRO to be used on GRE tunnels, from Eric Dumazet. 12) VXLAN device driver, one way to handle VLAN issues such as the limitation of 4096 VLAN IDs yet still have some level of isolation. From Stephen Hemminger. 13) As usual there is a large boatload of driver changes, with the scale perhaps tilted towards the wireless side this time around. Fix up various fairly trivial conflicts, mostly caused by the user namespace changes. * git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net-next: (1012 commits) hyperv: Add buffer for extended info after the RNDIS response message. hyperv: Report actual status in receive completion packet hyperv: Remove extra allocated space for recv_pkt_list elements hyperv: Fix page buffer handling in rndis_filter_send_request() hyperv: Fix the missing return value in rndis_filter_set_packet_filter() hyperv: Fix the max_xfer_size in RNDIS initialization vxlan: put UDP socket in correct namespace vxlan: Depend on CONFIG_INET sfc: Fix the reported priorities of different filter types sfc: Remove EFX_FILTER_FLAG_RX_OVERRIDE_IP sfc: Fix loopback self-test with separate_tx_channels=1 sfc: Fix MCDI structure field lookup sfc: Add parentheses around use of bitfield macro arguments sfc: Fix null function pointer in efx_sriov_channel_type vxlan: virtual extensible lan igmp: export symbol ip_mc_leave_group netlink: add attributes to fdb interface tg3: unconditionally select HWMON support when tg3 is enabled.

s390/sysinfo,stsi: change return code handling

2012-09-26T13:45:12Z

Change return code handling of the stsi() function: In case function code 0 was specified the return value is the current configuration level (already shifted). That way all the code that actually copied the stsi_0() function can go away. Otherwise the return value is 0 (success) or negative to indicate an error (currently only -EOPNOTSUPP). Also stsi() is no longer an inline function. The function is not performance critical, but every caller would generate an exception table entry for this function.

ctcm: fix error return code

2012-09-24T19:45:18Z

Convert a nonnegative error return code to a negative one, as returned 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: Peter Senna Tschudin Signed-off-by: Ursula Braun Signed-off-by: Frank Blaschka Signed-off-by: David S.
