2012-03-06tcp: fix tcp_shift_skb_data() to not shift SACKed data below snd_unaNeal Cardwell
This commit fixes tcp_shift_skb_data() so that it does not shift SACKed data below snd_una. This fixes an issue whose symptoms exactly match reports showing tp->sacked_out going negative since 3.3.0-rc4 (see "WARNING: at net/ipv4/tcp_input.c:3418" thread on netdev). Since 2008 (832d11c5cd076abc0aa1eaf7be96c81d1a59ce41) tcp_shift_skb_data() had been shifting SACKed ranges that were below snd_una. It checked that the *end* of the skb it was about to shift from was above snd_una, but did not check that the end of the actual shifted range was above snd_una; this commit adds that check. Shifting SACKed ranges below snd_una is problematic because for such ranges tcp_sacktag_one() short-circuits: it does not declare anything as SACKed and does not increase sacked_out. Before the fixes in commits cc9a672ee522d4805495b98680f4a3db5d0a0af9 and daef52bab1fd26e24e8e9578f8fb33ba1d0cb412, shifting SACKed ranges below snd_una happened to work because tcp_shifted_skb() was always (incorrectly) passing in to tcp_sacktag_one() an skb whose end_seq tcp_shift_skb_data() had already guaranteed was beyond snd_una. Hence tcp_sacktag_one() never short-circuited and always increased tp->sacked_out in this case. After those two fixes, my testing has verified that shifting SACKed ranges below snd_una could cause tp->sacked_out to go negative with the following sequence of events: (1) tcp_shift_skb_data() sees an skb whose end_seq is beyond snd_una, then shifts a prefix of that skb that is below snd_una (2) tcp_shifted_skb() increments the packet count of the already-SACKed prev sk_buff (3) tcp_sacktag_one() sees the end of the new SACKed range is below snd_una, so it short-circuits and doesn't increase tp->sacked_out (5) tcp_clean_rtx_queue() sees the SACKed skb has been ACKed, decrements tp->sacked_out by this "inflated" pcount that was missing a matching increase in tp->sacked_out, and hence tp->sacked_out underflows to a u32 like 0xFFFFFFFF, which casted to s32 is negative. (6) this leads to the warnings seen in the recent "WARNING: at net/ipv4/tcp_input.c:3418" thread on the netdev list; e.g.: tcp_input.c:3418 WARN_ON((int)tp->sacked_out < 0); More generally, I think this bug can be tickled in some cases where two or more ACKs from the receiver are lost and then a DSACK arrives that is immediately above an existing SACKed skb in the write queue. This fix changes tcp_shift_skb_data() to abort this sequence at step (1) in the scenario above by noticing that the bytes are below snd_una and not shifting them.

2012-03-05cfg80211: Add an attribute to set inactivity timeout in AP modeVasanthakumar Thiagarajan
This patch adds an attribute, NL80211_ATTR_INACTIVITY_TIMEOUT, to set the inactivity timeout which can be used to remove the station in AP mode. This can be passed in NL80211_CMD_START_AP and used by the drivers which have AP MLME in firmware but don't support get_station() properly. To disable inactivity timer in userspace, wpa_s for example, there is a new flag, NL80211_FEATURE_INACTIVITY_TIMER, in nl80211_feature_flags through which drivers can register their capability to use the inactivity timeout to free the stations.

2012-03-03tcp: don't fragment SACKed skbs in tcp_mark_head_lost()Neal Cardwell
In tcp_mark_head_lost() we should not attempt to fragment a SACKed skb to mark the first portion as lost. This is for two primary reasons: (1) tcp_shifted_skb() coalesces adjacent regions of SACKed skbs. When doing this, it preserves the sum of their packet counts in order to reflect the real-world dynamics on the wire. But given that skbs can have remainders that do not align to MSS boundaries, this packet count preservation means that for SACKed skbs there is not necessarily a direct linear relationship between tcp_skb_pcount(skb) and skb->len. Thus tcp_mark_head_lost()'s previous attempts to fragment off and mark as lost a prefix of length (packets - oldcnt)*mss from SACKed skbs were leading to occasional failures of the WARN_ON(len > skb->len) in tcp_fragment() (which used to be a BUG_ON(); see the recent "crash in tcp_fragment" thread on netdev). (2) there is no real point in fragmenting off part of a SACKed skb and calling tcp_skb_mark_lost() on it, since tcp_skb_mark_lost() is a NOP for SACKed skbs.

We are not supposed to force DISCOVERY_STOPPED in inquiry_cache_flush because we may break the discovery state machine. For instance, during interleaved discovery, when we are about to start inquiry, the state machine forcibly goes to DISCOVERY_STOPPED while it should stay in DISCOVERY_FINDING state.

2012-03-02SUNRPC: Add API to acquire source addressChuck Lever
NFSv4.0 clients must send endpoint information for their callback service to NFSv4.0 servers during their first contact with a server. Traditionally on Linux, user space provides the callback endpoint IP address via the "clientaddr=" mount option. During an NFSv4 migration event, it is possible that an FSID may be migrated to a destination server that is accessible via a different source IP address than the source server was. The client must update callback endpoint information on the destination server so that it can maintain leases and allow delegation. Without a new "clientaddr=" option from user space, however, the kernel itself must construct an appropriate IP address for the callback update. Provide an API in the RPC client for upper layer RPC consumers to acquire a source address for a remote. The mechanism used by the mount.nfs command is copied: set up a connected UDP socket to the designated remote, then scrape the source address off the socket. We are careful to select the correct network namespace when setting up the temporary UDP socket.
