John W. Linville says: ==================== pull request: wireless 2014-09-05 Please pull this batch of fixes intended for the 3.17 stream... For the mac80211 bits, Johannes says: "Here are a few fixes for mac80211. One has been discussed for a while and adds a terminating NUL-byte to the alpha2 sent to userspace, which shouldn't be necessary but since many places treat it as a string we couldn't move to just sending two bytes. In addition to that, we have two VLAN fixes from Felix, a mesh fix, a fix for the recently introduced RX aggregation offload, a revert for a broken patch (that luckily didn't really cause any harm) and a small fix for alignment in debugfs." For the iwlwifi bits, Emmanuel says: "I revert a patch that disabled CTS to self in dvm because users reported issues. The revert is CCed to stable since the offending patch was sent to stable too. I also bump the firmware API versions since a new firmware is coming up. On top of that, Marcel fixes a bug I introduced while fixing a bug in our Kconfig file." Please let me know if there are problems! ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net-timestamp: only report sw timestamp if reporting bit is set

2014-09-05T22:02:43Z

The timestamping API has separate bits for generating and reporting timestamps. A software timestamp should only be reported for a packet when the packet has the relevant generation flag (SKBTX_..) set and the socket has reporting bit SOF_TIMESTAMPING_SOFTWARE set. The second check was accidentally removed. Reinstitute the original behavior. Tested: Without this patch, Documentation/networking/txtimestamp reports timestamps regardless of whether SOF_TIMESTAMPING_SOFTWARE is set. After the patch, it only reports them when the flag is set.

For the Bluetooth/6LowPAN/802.15.4 bits, Johan says: 'It contains a connection reference counting fix for LE where a connection might stay up even though it should get disconnected.

This series includes memory leak fixes and an errno value fix. Also there are two patches for sending and receiving 1280 6LoWPAN packets, which makes the IEEE 802.15.4 6LoWPAN stack more RFC compliant. "' Along with that... Alexey Khoroshilov fixes a use-after-free bug on at76c50x-usb. Hauke Mehrtens adds a PCI ID to bcma. Himangi Saraogi fixes a silly "A || A" test in rtlwifi.

net: sctp: fix ABI mismatch through sctp_assoc_to_state helper

2014-08-30T03:31:08Z

Since SCTP day 1, that is, 19b55a2af145 ("Initial commit") from lksctp tree, the official header carries a copy of enum sctp_sstat_state that looks like (compared to the current in-kernel enumeration): User definition: Kernel definition: enum sctp_sstat_state { typedef enum { SCTP_EMPTY = 0, SCTP_CLOSED = 1, SCTP_STATE_CLOSED = 0, SCTP_COOKIE_WAIT = 2, SCTP_STATE_COOKIE_WAIT = 1, SCTP_COOKIE_ECHOED = 3, SCTP_STATE_COOKIE_ECHOED = 2, SCTP_ESTABLISHED = 4, SCTP_STATE_ESTABLISHED = 3, SCTP_SHUTDOWN_PENDING = 5, SCTP_STATE_SHUTDOWN_PENDING = 4, SCTP_SHUTDOWN_SENT = 6, SCTP_STATE_SHUTDOWN_SENT = 5, SCTP_SHUTDOWN_RECEIVED = 7, SCTP_STATE_SHUTDOWN_RECEIVED = 6, SCTP_SHUTDOWN_ACK_SENT = 8, SCTP_STATE_SHUTDOWN_ACK_SENT = 7, }; } sctp_state_t; This header was later on also placed into the uapi, so that user space programs can compile without having , but the shipped with instead. While RFC6458 under 8.2.1.Association Status (SCTP_STATUS) says that sstat_state can range from SCTP_CLOSED to SCTP_SHUTDOWN_ACK_SENT, we nevertheless have a what it appears to be dummy SCTP_EMPTY state from the very early days. While it seems to do just nothing, commit 0b8f9e25b0aa ("sctp: remove completely unsed EMPTY state") did the right thing and removed this dead code. That however, causes an off-by-one when the user asks the SCTP stack via SCTP_STATUS API and checks for the current socket state thus yielding possibly undefined behaviour in applications as they expect the kernel to tell the right thing. The enumeration had to be changed however as based on the current socket state, we access a function pointer lookup-table through this. Therefore, I think the best way to deal with this is just to add a helper function sctp_assoc_to_state() to encapsulate the off-by-one quirk.

Bluetooth: Fix hci_conn reference counting for auto-connections

2014-08-20T18:57:39Z

Recently the LE passive scanning and auto-connections feature was introduced. It uses the hci_connect_le() API which returns a hci_conn along with a reference count to that object. All previous users would tie this returned reference to some existing object, such as an L2CAP channel, and there'd be no leaked references this way. For auto-connections however the reference was returned but not stored anywhere, leaving established connections with one higher reference count than they should have. Instead of playing special tricks with hci_conn_hold/drop this patch associates the returned reference from hci_connect_le() with the object that in practice does own this reference, i.e. the hci_conn_params struct that caused us to initiate a connection in the first place. Once the connection is established or fails to establish this reference is removed appropriately. One extra thing needed is to call hci_pend_le_actions_clear() before calling hci_conn_hash_flush() so that the reference is cleared before the hci_conn objects are fully removed.

ieee802154: 6lowpan: ensure MTU of 1280 for 6lowpan

2014-08-19T17:17:42Z

This patch drops the userspace accessable sysfs entry for the maximum datagram size of a 6LoWPAN fragment packet. A fragment should not have a datagram size value greater than 1280 byte. Instead of make this value configurable, we accept 1280 datagram size fragment packets only. Signed-off-by: Martin Townsend Signed-off-by: Alexander Aring Signed-off-by: Marcel Holtmann

regulatory: add NUL to alpha2

2014-08-15T11:51:40Z

alpha2 is defined as 2-chars array, but is used in multiple places as string (e.g. with nla_put_string calls), which might leak kernel data. Solve it by simply adding an extra char for the NULL terminator, making such operations safe. Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Eliad Peller Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg
