* netfilter: fix string extension for case insensitive pattern matchingJoonwoo Park2008-07-082-3/+50
| | | | | | | | | | | | | The flag XT_STRING_FLAG_IGNORECASE indicates case insensitive string matching. netfilter can find cmd.exe, Cmd.exe, cMd.exe and etc easily. A new revision 1 was added, in the meantime invert of xt_string_info was moved into flags as a flag. If revision is 1, The flag XT_STRING_FLAG_INVERT indicates invert matching.

* net-sched: sch_htb: remove write-only qdisc filter_cntPatrick McHardy2008-07-051-7/+0
| | | | | | | | | | The filter_cnt is supposed to count filter references to a class. Since the qdisc can't be the target of a filter, it doesn't need a filter_cnt. In fact the counter is never decreased since cls_api considers a return value of zero a failure and doesn't unbind again. Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> Signed-off-by: David S.

* net-sched: sch_htb: move hash and sibling list removal to htb_deletePatrick McHardy2008-07-051-23/+17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Hash list removal currently happens twice (once in htb_delete, once in htb_destroy_class), which makes it harder to use the dynamically sized class hash without adding special cases for HTB. The reason is that qdisc destruction destroys classes in hierarchical order, which is not necessary if filters are destroyed in a separate iteration during qdisc destruction. Adjust qdisc destruction to follow the same scheme as other hierarchical qdiscs by first performing a filter destruction pass, then destroying all classes in hash order.

* net-sched: add dynamically sized qdisc class hash helpersPatrick McHardy2008-07-052-0/+146
| | | | | | | | | | | | Currently all qdiscs which allow to create classes uses a fixed sized hash table with size 16 to hash the classes. This causes a large bottleneck when using thousands of classes and unbound filters. Add helpers for dynamically sized class hashes to fix this. The following patches will convert the qdiscs to use them. Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Unfortunately it was also needed for cases other than eth_type_trans(). Adding it back.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Unregistering a bridge device may cause virtual devices stacked on the bridge, like vlan or macvlan devices, to be unregistered as well. br_cleanup_bridges() uses for_each_netdev_safe() to iterate over all devices during cleanup. This is not enough however, if one of the additionally unregistered devices is next in the list to the bridge device, it will get freed as well and the iteration continues on the freed element. Restart iteration after each bridge device removal from the beginning to fix this, similar to what rtnl_link_unregister() does.

However, during module cleanup, remove_bridge() will only remove the notify handler iff the root bridge had a hot-pluggable slot directly underneath. That is: root bridge -> hotplug slot But, if the topology looks like either of the following: root bridge -> non-hotplug slot root bridge -> p2p bridge -> hotplug slot Then we currently do not remove the notify handler from that root bridge. This can cause a kernel oops if we modprobe acpiphp later and it gets loaded somewhere else in memory. If the root bridge then receives a hotplug event, it will then attempt to call a stale, non-existent notify handler and we blow up. Much thanks goes to Gary Hade for his persistent debugging efforts.

| | * | PCI: Limit VPD read/write lengths for Broadcom 5706, 5708, 5709 rev.Benjamin Li2008-07-024-12/+48
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For Broadcom 5706, 5708, 5709 rev. A nics, any read beyond the VPD end tag will hang the device. This problem was initially observed when a vpd entry was created in sysfs ('/sys/bus/pci/devices/<id>/vpd'). A read to this sysfs entry will dump 32k of data. Reading a full 32k will cause an access beyond the VPD end tag causing the device to hang. Once the device is hung, the bnx2 driver will not be able to reset the device. We believe that it is legal to read beyond the end tag and therefore the solution is to limit the read/write length. A majority of this patch is from Matthew Wilcox who gave code for reworking the PCI vpd size information. A PCI quirk added for the Broadcom NIC's to limit the read/write's.

| | * | PCI: Restrict VPD read permission to rootBen Hutchings2008-07-011-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some PCI devices will lock up if we attempt to read from VPD addresses beyond some device-dependent limit. Until we can identify these devices and adjust the file size accordingly, only let root read VPD through sysfs to prevent a DoS by normal users.
