Hello David Miller,
I fix a bug in ks8851_mll driver, which has existed since 2.6.32-rc6.
>From : David J. Choi <david.choi@micrel.com>
Fix a bug that the data pointers in the interrupt handler are set wrong, which is related with the 5th parameter of request_irq().

netdev_open() will return without cleaning up net device or hardware state
if firmware loading fails. This results in a BUG() on a second attempt to
bring the interface up, reported in
<http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15091>, and probably has even
worse effects if the driver is removed afterwards.
Call netdev_close() to clean up on failure.

I have seen RX stalls on a machine that experienced a suspected
OOM. After the stall, the RX buffer is empty on the guest side
and there are exactly 16 entries available on the host side. As
the number of entries is less than that required by a maximal
skb, the host cannot proceed.
The guest did not have a refill job scheduled.
My diagnosis is that an OOM had occured, with the delayed refill
job scheduled. The job was able to allocate at least one skb, but
not enough to overcome the minimum required by the host to proceed.
As the refill job would only reschedule itself if it failed completely
to allocate any skbs, this would lead to an RX stall.
The following patch removes this stall possibility by always
rescheduling the refill job until the ring is totally refilled.
Testing has shown that the RX stall no longer occurs whereas
previously it would occur within a day.

The low-level MCDI code always uses 32-bit MMIO operations, and
callers must pad input and output buffers to multiples of 4 bytes.
The MCDI NVRAM functions are not doing this. Also, their buffers are
declared as variable-length arrays with no explicit maximum length.
Switch to a fixed buffer size based on the chunk size used by the
MTD driver (which is a multiple of 4).

Due to a hardware bug in the SFC9000 family, the firmware must
transfer raw GMAC statistics to host memory before aggregating them
into the cooked (speed-independent) MAC statistics. Extend the stats
buffer to support this.
The length of the buffer is explicit in the MAC_STATS command, so this
change is backward-compatible on both sides.

Currently qlge tries to release regions even if they were not allocated.

Obviously, this register had some other impact that is causing
the regression. Either it is masking some other access or needs
to be reset in some path.
Either, way it is best to just revert the change for 2.6.33

When testing the "e1000: enhance frame fragment detection" (and e1000e)
patches we found some bugs with reducing the MTU size. The 1024 byte
descriptor used with the 1000 mtu test also (re) introduced the
(originally) reported bug, and causes us to need the e1000_clean_tx_irq
"enhance frame fragment detection" fix.
So what has occured here is that 2.6.32 is only vulnerable for mtu <
1500 due to the jumbo specific routines in both e1000 and e1000e.
So, 2.6.32 needs the 2kB buffer len fix for those smaller MTUs, but
is not vulnerable to the original issue reported. It has been pointed
out that this vulnerability needs to be patched in older kernels that
don't have the e1000 jumbo routine. Without the jumbo routines, we
need the "enhance frame fragment detection" fix the e1000, old
e1000e is only vulnerable for < 1500 mtu, and needs a similar
fix. We split the patches up to provide easy backport paths.
There is only a slight bit of extra code when this fix and the
original "enhance frame fragment detection" fixes are applied, so
please apply both, even though it is a bit of overkill.

the last frag that uses the page is not being set as a "last_page_user";

e1000e could with a jumbo frame enabled interface, and packet split disabled,
receive a packet that would overflow a single rx buffer. While in practice
very hard to craft a packet that could abuse this, it is possible.

Hey all-
A security discussion was recently given:
http://events.ccc.de/congress/2009/Fahrplan//events/3596.en.html
And a patch that I submitted awhile back was brought up. Apparently some of
their testing revealed that they were able to force a buffer fragment in e1000
in which the trailing fragment was greater than 4 bytes. As a result the
fragment check I introduced failed to detect the fragement and a partial
invalid frame was passed up into the network stack. I've written this patch
to correct it. I'm in the process of testing it now, but it makes good
logical sense to me. Effectively it maintains a per-adapter state variable
which detects a non-EOP frame, and discards it and subsequent non-EOP frames
leading up to _and_ _including_ the next positive-EOP frame (as it is by
definition the last fragment). This should prevent any and all partial frames
from entering the network stack from e1000.

When cleaning up beacon buffers and slots, ath9k currently checks if
sc->ah->opmode is set to a beacon related mode before cleaning up
buffers.
An unfortunate ordering of interface up/down commands can lead to
sc->ah->opmode being set to monitor mode, while there are AP interfaces
present on the same wiphy.
Always cleaning up beacon buffers if present fixes this issue.

commit 7583605b6d29f1f7f6fc505b883328089f3485ad ("ucc_geth: Fix empty
TX queue processing") fixed empty TX queue mishandling, but didn't
account another corner case: when TX queue becomes full.
Without this patch the driver will stop transmiting when TX queue
becomes full since 'bd == ugeth->txBd[txQ]' actually checks for
two things: queue empty or full.
Let's better check for NULL skb, which unambiguously signals an empty
queue.

commit 541cd3ee00a4fe975b22fac6a3bc846bacef37f7 ("phylib: Fix deadlock
on resume") caused TI DaVinci EMAC ethernet driver to oops upon resume:
PM: resume of devices complete after 237.098 msecs
Restarting tasks ... done.
kernel BUG at kernel/workqueue.c:354!
Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000000
[...]
Backtrace:
[<c002c598>] (__bug+0x0/0x2c) from [<c0052a54>] (queue_delayed_work_on+0x74/0xf8)
[<c00529e0>] (queue_delayed_work_on+0x0/0xf8) from [<c0052b30>] (queue_delayed_work+0x2c/0x30)
The oops pops up because TI DaVinci EMAC driver detaches PHY on
suspend and attaches it back on resume. Attaching makes phylib call
phy_start_machine() that initializes a workqueue. On the other hand,
PHY's resume routine will call phy_start_machine() again, and that
will cause the oops since we just destroyed the already scheduled
workqueue.
This patch fixes the issue by moving workqueue initialization to
phy_device_create().
p.s. We don't see this oops with ucc_geth and gianfar drivers because
they perform a fine-grained suspend, i.e. they just stop the PHYs
without detaching.

A long time ago, a user reported several crashes due to
data corruptions which are likely the result of a
not-100%-supported, or faulty? PCI bridge.
( http://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/53004/ )
This patch fixes entry #1.
"1. p54p_check_rx_ring - skb_over_panic: Under a ping flood
or just left running for a bit would panic with a skb_over_panic."
As described in the mail: The invalid frame length causes
skb_put to bailout and trigger a crash.
Note:
Simply dropping the frame is problematic, because if its content
contains a tx feedback we would lose some portion of the device
memory space.... And the driver/mac80211 should handle all other
invalid data.

There are some tg3 devices that require the driver to post new rx
buffers in smaller increments. Commit
4361935afe3abc3e5a93006b99197fac1fabbd50, "tg3: Consider
rx_std_prod_idx a hw mailbox" changed how the driver tracks the rx
producer ring updates, but it does not make any special considerations
for the above-mentioned devices. For those devices, it is possible for
the driver to hit the special case path, which updates the hardware
mailbox register but skips updating the shadow software mailbox member.
If the special case path represents the final mailbox update for this
ISR iteration, the hardware and software mailbox values will be out of
sync. Ultimately, this will cause the driver to use a stale mailbox
value on the next iteration, which will appear to the hardware as a
large rx buffer update. Bad things ensue.
The fix is to update the software shadow mailbox member when the special
case path is taken.
