tg3: Fix 57765 A0 bootcode race condition

On A0 revision of 57765 asic rev devices, the bootcode will perform some
hardware operations, after the magic signature is presented, that will
collide with setup operations performed by the driver.  The best way to
avoid the contention is to have the driver delay an additional 10
milliseconds.  B0 revisions of the chip will make this workaround
unnecessary.

tg3: Unwedge stuck MSI-X vectors

The previous patch changed the code so that new rx buffer submissions to
the hardware stall if a new submission would overwrite data needed by an
unserviced rx packet.  On very busy 5717 and 57765 asic rev devices,
there is a corner case where the hardware will fail to assert an MSI-X
interrupt for rx traffic.  If that vector's interrupt never has another
reason to assert, any rx buffers held will never be serviced.  If the
buffers are never serviced and the hardware consumes all the available
rx packets for other rx rings, deadlock will result.

The most reliable and least intrusive way to work around the problem is
to detect the case where new submissions would overwrite existing data
and force all rx interrupt vectors to fire.

net: Micrel KSZ8841/2 PCI Ethernet driver

This is a new network driver for Micrel KSZ8841/KSZ8842 PCI Ethernet chips.  The same driver can run both chips at the same time.  It supports IPv4 TCP hardware checksumming and so can use scatter/gather transmission.

The KSZ8842 switch has 2 ports.  Some users like to take direct control of those ports.  So KSZ8842 has a multiple devices mode in which the driver creates another network device so that users can specify which port to send packets.  This mode is enabled by passing the "multi_dev=1" parameter to the driver during loading.

The KSZ884X can receive huge frames with size up to 1916 bytes.  To use this feature change the network device MTU from 1500 to 1898.

The KSZ884X driver has 3 packet receive processing functions for the normal mode, multiple devices mode, and huge frame mode.  Those functions are identical except for more checking for the new features.  In normal programming point of view the huge frame version is the one to use because it covers all the cases, but this is done for performance consideration because the target clients for the KSZ884X chips are embedded systems, which unlike desktop PC may not have powerful CPU.

dccp: allow probing of CCID-array length

DCCP_SOCKOPT_AVAILABLE_CCIDS in a loop, incrementing the option length until
EINVAL is no longer returned.

This patch truncates the array to the user-provided length. No copy is made
when the length is <= 0.

Due to the length restriction in do_dccp_getsockopt() to sizeof(int), the
minimum array length remains 4, which is a reasonable default (only 3
CCIDs, CCID-2..4, are currently defined).

Patrick McHardy [Mon, 8 Feb 2010 19:18:07 +0000 (11:18 -0800)]
netfilter: nf_conntrack: fix hash resizing with namespaces

As noticed by Jon Masters <jonathan@jonmasters.org>, the conntrack hash
size is global and not per namespace, but modifiable at runtime through
/sys/module/nf_conntrack/hashsize. Changing the hash size will only
resize the hash in the current namespace however, so other namespaces
will use an invalid hash size. This can cause crashes when enlarging
the hashsize, or false negative lookups when shrinking it.

Move the hash size into the per-namespace data and only use the global
hash size to initialize the per-namespace value when instanciating a
new namespace. Additionally restrict hash resizing to init_net for
now as other namespaces are not handled currently.

Eric Dumazet [Mon, 8 Feb 2010 19:16:56 +0000 (11:16 -0800)]
netfilter: nf_conntrack: per netns nf_conntrack_cachep

nf_conntrack_cachep is currently shared by all netns instances, but
because of SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU special semantics, this is wrong.

If we use a shared slab cache, one object can instantly flight between
one hash table (netns ONE) to another one (netns TWO), and concurrent
reader (doing a lookup in netns ONE, 'finding' an object of netns TWO)
can be fooled without notice, because no RCU grace period has to be
observed between object freeing and its reuse.

We dont have this problem with UDP/TCP slab caches because TCP/UDP
hashtables are global to the machine (and each object has a pointer to
its netns).

If we use per netns conntrack hash tables, we also *must* use per netns
conntrack slab caches, to guarantee an object can not escape from one
namespace to another one.

netfilter: nf_conntrack: fix memory corruption with multiple namespaces

As discovered by Jon Masters <jonathan@jonmasters.org>, the "untracked"
conntrack, which is located in the data section, might be accidentally
freed when a new namespace is instantiated while the untracked conntrack
is attached to a skb because the reference count it re-initialized.

The best fix would be to use a seperate untracked conntrack per
namespace since it includes a namespace pointer. Unfortunately this is
not possible without larger changes since the namespace is not easily
available everywhere we need it. For now move the untracked conntrack
initialization to the init_net setup function to make sure the reference
count is not re-initialized and handle cleanup in the init_net cleanup
function to make sure namespaces can exit properly while the untracked
conntrack is in use in other namespaces.
