f9dd09c7f7 netfilter: nf_nat: fix NAT issue in 2.6.30.4+
Vitezslav Samel discovered that since 2.6.30.4+ active FTP can not work
over NAT. The "cause" of the problem was a fix of unacknowledged data
detection with NAT (commit a3a9f79e36).
However, actually, that fix uncovered a long standing bug in TCP conntrack:
when NAT was enabled, we simply updated the max of the right edge of
the segments we have seen (td_end), by the offset NAT produced with
changing IP/port in the data. However, we did not update the other parameter
(td_maxend) which is affected by the NAT offset. Thus that could drift
away from the correct value and thus resulted breaking active FTP.

The patch below fixes the issue by *not* updating the conntrack parameters
from NAT, but instead taking into account the NAT offsets in conntrack in a
consistent way. (Updating from NAT would be more harder and expensive because
it'd need to re-calculate parameters we already calculated in conntrack.)

Calling IPv4 specific inet_csk_route_req in tcp_check_req

Also, all we are really interested in is the timestamp

with the "estab" set to false flag is an overkill as
it tries to parse half a dozen other TCP options.

We know whether timestamp should be enabled or not

figured I'd start with pushing such a change

of ieee80211_find_sta_by_hw(), but discourage

584991dccf cfg80211: validate scan channels
Currently it is possible to request a scan on only
disabled channels, which could be problematic for
some drivers. Reject such scans, and also ignore
disabled channels that are given. This resuls in
the scan begin/end event only including channels
that are actually used.

This makes the mac80211 check for disabled channels
superfluous. At the same time, remove the no-IBSS
check from mac80211 -- nothing says that we should
not find any networks on channels that cannot be
used for an IBSS, even when operating in IBSS mode.

      cfg80211: sme: deauthenticate on assoc failure

introduced a potential NULL pointer dereference that
some people have been hitting for some reason -- the
params.bssid pointer is not guaranteed to be non-NULL
for what seems to be a race between various ways of
reaching the same thing.

While I'm trying to analyse the problem more let's
first fix the crash. I think the real fix may be to
avoid doing _anything_ if it ended up being NULL, but
right now I'm not sure yet.

I think
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14342
might also be this issue.

"At rds_ib_recv_refill_one(), it first executes atomic_read(&rds_ib_allocation)

and then executes atomic_inc(&rds_ib_allocation) if the condition was

However, if any other code which updates rds_ib_allocation executes
between these two atomic operation executions,
it seems that it may result race condition. (especially when

This patch fixes this by using atomic_inc_unless to eliminate the
possibility of allocating more than rds_ib_sysctl_max_recv_allocation

c27f2fded5 mac80211: deprecate qual value
This value is unused by mac80211, because it was only
be used by wireless extensions, and turned out to not
be useful there because the quality value needs to be
comparable between scan results and the current value
which is impossible when the qual value is calculated
taking into account noise, for example.

Since it is unused anyway, this patch deprecates it
in the hope that drivers will remove their sometimes
quite expensive calculations of the value.

I'm open to actual uses of the value, but the best
way of using it seems to be what the Intel drivers do
which should probably be generalised if we have noise
values from the hardware.

0869aea0eb mac80211: remove RX_FLAG_RADIOTAP
While there may be a case for a driver adding its
own bits of radiotap information, none currently
does. Also, drivers would have to copy the code
to generate the radiotap bits that now mac80211
generates. If some driver in the future needs to
add some driver-specific information I'd expect
that to be in a radiotap vendor namespace and we
can add a different way of passing such data up
and having mac80211 include it.

Additionally, rename IEEE80211_CONF_RADIOTAP to
IEEE80211_CONF_MONITOR since it's still used by
b43(legacy) to obtain per-frame timestamps.

The purpose of this patch is to simplify the RX
code in mac80211 to make it easier to add paged
skb support.

  Date:   Thu May 8 19:22:43 2008 +0200

      mac80211: make rx radiotap header more flexible

code was added that tried to align the radiotap header
position in memory based on the radiotap header length.
Quite obviously, that is completely useless.

Instead of trying to do that, use unaligned accesses
to generate the radiotap header. To properly do that,
we also need to mark struct ieee80211_radiotap_header
packed, but that is fine since it's already packed
(and it should be marked packed anyway since its a
wire format).

4d36ec5823 mac80211: split hardware scan by band
There's currently a very odd bug in mac80211 -- a
hardware scan that is done while the hardware is
really operating on 2.4 GHz will include CCK rates
in the probe request frame, even on 5 GHz (if the
driver uses the mac80211 IEs). Vice versa, if the
hardware is operating on 5 GHz the 2.4 GHz probe
requests will not include CCK rates even though
they should.

Fix this by splitting up cfg80211 scan requests by
band -- recalculating the IEs every time -- and
requesting only per-band scans from the driver.

Apparently this bug hasn't been a problem yet, but
it is imaginable that some older access points get
confused if confronted with such behaviour.

In TX path it was assumed that dynamic power save works only if
IEEE80211_HW_PS_NULLFUNC_STACK is set. But is not the case, there are
devices which have nullfunc support in hardware but need mac80211
to handle dynamic power save timers, TI's wl1251 is one of them.

The fix is to not check for IEEE80211_HW_PS_NULLFUNC_STACK in
is_dynamic_ps_enabled(), instead check IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_PS and
IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_DYNAMIC_PS flags and act accordingly.

Then also make mac80211 use debugfs_remove_recursive()

still need to be handled but can now be removed without
