2010-08-11can: add limit for nframes and clean up signed/unsigned variablesOliver Hartkopp
This patch adds a limit for nframes as the number of frames in TX_SETUP and RX_SETUP are derived from a single byte multiplex value by default. Use-cases that would require to send/filter more than 256 CAN frames should be implemented in userspace for complexity reasons anyway. Additionally the assignments of unsigned values from userspace to signed values in kernelspace and vice versa are fixed by using unsigned values in kernelspace consistently.

2010-08-11DNS: If the DNS server returns an error, allow that to be cached [ver #2]Wang Lei
If the DNS server returns an error, allow that to be cached in the DNS resolver key in lieu of a value. Userspace passes the desired error number as an option in the payload: "#dnserror=<number>" Userspace must map h_errno from the name resolution routines to an appropriate Linux error before passing it up. Something like the following mapping is recommended: [HOST_NOT_FOUND] = ENODATA, [TRY_AGAIN] = EAGAIN, [NO_RECOVERY] = ECONNREFUSED, [NO_DATA] = ENODATA, in lieu of Linux errors specifically for representing name service errors. The filesystem must map these errors appropropriately before passing them to userspace. AFS is made to map ENODATA and EAGAIN to EDESTADDRREQ for the return to userspace; ECONNREFUSED is allowed to stand as is. The error can be seen in /proc/keys as a negative number after the description of the key. Compare, for example, the following key entries: 2f97238c I--Q-- 1 53s 3f010000 0 0 dns_resol afsdb:grand.centrall.org: -61 338bfbbe I--Q-- 1 59m 3f010000 0 0 dns_resol afsdb:grand.central.org: 37 If the error option is supplied in the payload, the main part of the payload is discarded. The key should have an expiry time set by userspace.

2010-08-11param: use ops in struct kernel_param, rather than get and set fns directlyRusty Russell
This is more kernel-ish, saves some space, and also allows us to expand the ops without breaking all the callers who are happy for the new members to be NULL. The few places which defined their own param types are changed to the new scheme (more which crept in recently fixed in following patches). Since we're touching them anyway, we change get() and set() to take a const struct kernel_param (which they really are). This causes some harmless warnings until we fix them (in following patches). To reduce churn, module_param_call creates the ops struct so the callers don't have to change (and casts the functions to reduce warnings). The modern version which takes an ops struct is called module_param_cb.

2010-08-10Bluetooth: Fix incorrect setting of remote_tx_win for L2CAP ERTMMat Martineau
remote_tx_win is intended to be set on receipt of an L2CAP configuration request. The value is used to determine the size of the transmit window on the remote side of an ERTM connection, so L2CAP can stop sending frames when that remote window is full. An incorrect remote_tx_win value will cause the stack to not fully utilize the tx window (performance impact), or to overfill the remote tx window (causing dropped frames or a disconnect). This patch removes an extra setting of remote_tx_win when a configuration response is received. The transmit window has a different meaning in a response - it is an informational value less than or equal to the local tx_win.

2010-08-10Bluetooth: Fix endianness issue with L2CAP MPS configurationMat Martineau
Incoming configuration values must be converted to native CPU order before use. This fixes a bug where a little-endian MPS value is compared to a native CPU value. On big-endian processors, this can cause ERTM and streaming mode segmentation to produce PDUs that are larger than the remote stack is expecting, or that would produce fragmented skbs that the current FCS code cannot handle.

2010-08-05DNS: Separate out CIFS DNS Resolver codeWang Lei
Separate out the DNS resolver key type from the CIFS filesystem into its own module so that it can be made available for general use, including the AFS filesystem module. This facility makes it possible for the kernel to upcall to userspace to have it issue DNS requests, package up the replies and present them to the kernel in a useful form. The kernel is then able to cache the DNS replies as keys can be retained in keyrings. Resolver keys are of type "dns_resolver" and have a case-insensitive description that is of the form "[<type>:]<domain_name>". The optional <type> indicates the particular DNS lookup and packaging that's required. The <domain_name> is the query to be made. If <type> isn't given, a basic hostname to IP address lookup is made, and the result is stored in the key in the form of a printable string consisting of a comma-separated list of IPv4 and IPv6 addresses. This key type is supported by userspace helpers driven from /sbin/request-key and configured through /etc/request-key.conf. The cifs.upcall utility is invoked for UNC path server name to IP address resolution. The CIFS functionality is encapsulated by the dns_resolve_unc_to_ip() function, which is used to resolve a UNC path to an IP address for CIFS filesystem. This part remains in the CIFS module for now. See the added Documentation/networking/dns_resolver.txt for more information.

2010-08-04RxRPC: Fix a potential deadlock between the call resend_timer and state_lockDavid Howells
RxRPC can potentially deadlock as rxrpc_resend_time_expired() wants to get call->state_lock so that it can alter the state of an RxRPC call. However, its caller (call_timer_fn()) has an apparent lock on the timer struct. The problem is that rxrpc_resend_time_expired() isn't permitted to lock call->state_lock as this could cause a deadlock against rxrpc_send_abort() as that takes state_lock and then attempts to delete the resend timer by calling del_timer_sync(). The deadlock can occur because del_timer_sync() will sit there forever waiting for rxrpc_resend_time_expired() to return, but the latter may then wait for call->state_lock, which rxrpc_send_abort() holds around del_timer_sync()... This leads to a warning appearing in the kernel log that looks something like the attached. It should be sufficient to simply dispense with the locks. It doesn't matter if we set the resend timer expired event bit and queue the event processor whilst we're changing state to one where the resend timer is irrelevant as the event can just be ignored by the processor thereafter. ======================================================= [ INFO: possible circular locking dependency detected ] 2.6.35-rc3-cachefs+ #115 ------------------------------------------------------- swapper/0 is trying to acquire lock: (&call->state_lock){++--..}, at: [<ffffffffa00200d4>] rxrpc_resend_time_expired+0x56/0x96 [af_rxrpc] but task is already holding lock: (&call->resend_timer){+.-...}, at: [<ffffffff8103b675>] run_timer_softirq+0x182/0x2a5 which lock already depends on the new lock. the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is: -> #1 (&call->resend_timer){+.-...}: [<ffffffff810560bc>] __lock_acquire+0x889/0x8fa [<ffffffff81056184>] lock_acquire+0x57/0x6d [<ffffffff8103bb9c>] del_timer_sync+0x3c/0x86 [<ffffffffa002bb7a>] rxrpc_send_abort+0x50/0x97 [af_rxrpc] [<ffffffffa002bdd9>] rxrpc_kernel_abort_call+0xa1/0xdd [af_rxrpc] [<ffffffffa0061588>] afs_deliver_to_call+0x129/0x368 [kafs] [<ffffffffa006181b>] afs_process_async_call+0x54/0xff [kafs] [<ffffffff8104261d>] worker_thread+0x1ef/0x2e2 [<ffffffff81045f47>] kthread+0x7a/0x82 [<ffffffff81002cd4>] kernel_thread_helper+0x4/0x10 -> #0 (&call->state_lock){++--..}: [<ffffffff81055237>] validate_chain+0x727/0xd23 [<ffffffff810560bc>] __lock_acquire+0x889/0x8fa [<ffffffff81056184>] lock_acquire+0x57/0x6d [<ffffffff813e6b69>] _raw_read_lock_bh+0x34/0x43 [<ffffffffa00200d4>] rxrpc_resend_time_expired+0x56/0x96 [af_rxrpc] [<ffffffff8103b6e6>] run_timer_softirq+0x1f3/0x2a5 [<ffffffff81036828>] __do_softirq+0xa2/0x13e [<ffffffff81002dcc>] call_softirq+0x1c/0x28 [<ffffffff810049f0>] do_softirq+0x38/0x80 [<ffffffff810361a2>] irq_exit+0x45/0x47 [<ffffffff81018fb3>] smp_apic_timer_interrupt+0x88/0x96 [<ffffffff81002893>] apic_timer_interrupt+0x13/0x20 [<ffffffff810011ac>] cpu_idle+0x4d/0x83 [<ffffffff813e06f3>] start_secondary+0x1bd/0x1c1 other info that might help us debug this: 1 lock held by swapper/0: #0: (&call->resend_timer){+.-...}, at: [<ffffffff8103b675>] run_timer_softirq+0x182/0x2a5 stack backtrace: Pid: 0, comm: swapper Not tainted 2.6.35-rc3-cachefs+ #115 Call Trace: <IRQ> [<ffffffff81054414>] print_circular_bug+0xae/0xbd [<ffffffff81055237>] validate_chain+0x727/0xd23 [<ffffffff810560bc>] __lock_acquire+0x889/0x8fa [<ffffffff810539a7>] ? mark_lock+0x42f/0x51f [<ffffffff81056184>] lock_acquire+0x57/0x6d [<ffffffffa00200d4>] ? rxrpc_resend_time_expired+0x56/0x96 [af_rxrpc] [<ffffffff813e6b69>] _raw_read_lock_bh+0x34/0x43 [<ffffffffa00200d4>] ? rxrpc_resend_time_expired+0x56/0x96 [af_rxrpc] [<ffffffffa00200d4>] rxrpc_resend_time_expired+0x56/0x96 [af_rxrpc] [<ffffffff8103b6e6>] run_timer_softirq+0x1f3/0x2a5 [<ffffffff8103b675>] ? run_timer_softirq+0x182/0x2a5 [<ffffffffa002007e>] ? rxrpc_resend_time_expired+0x0/0x96 [af_rxrpc] [<ffffffff810367ef>] ? __do_softirq+0x69/0x13e [<ffffffff81036828>] __do_softirq+0xa2/0x13e [<ffffffff81002dcc>] call_softirq+0x1c/0x28 [<ffffffff810049f0>] do_softirq+0x38/0x80 [<ffffffff810361a2>] irq_exit+0x45/0x47 [<ffffffff81018fb3>] smp_apic_timer_interrupt+0x88/0x96 [<ffffffff81002893>] apic_timer_interrupt+0x13/0x20 <EOI> [<ffffffff81049de1>] ? __atomic_notifier_call_chain+0x0/0x86 [<ffffffff8100955b>] ? mwait_idle+0x6e/0x78 [<ffffffff81009552>] ? mwait_idle+0x65/0x78 [<ffffffff810011ac>] cpu_idle+0x4d/0x83 [<ffffffff813e06f3>] start_secondary+0x1bd/0x1c1 Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
