[PATCH] Fix deadlock in br_stp_disable_bridge

2006-03-01T22:36:34+00:00

Looks like somebody forgot to use the _bh spin_lock variant. We ran into a deadlock where br->hello_timer expired while br_stp_disable_br() walked br->port_list.

[PATCH] netfilter missing symbol has_bridge_parent

2006-03-01T22:36:32+00:00

5dce971acf2ae20c80d5e9d1f6bbf17376870911 in Linus' tree, otherwise known as bridge-netfilter-races-on-device-removal.patch in 2.5.15.4 removed has_bridge_parent, however this symbol is still called with NETFILTER_DEBUG is enabled. This patch uses the already seeded realoutdev value to detect if a parent exists, and if so, the value of the parent.

[PATCH] bridge: fix RCU race on device removal

2006-02-10T07:20:15+00:00

Patch to 2.6.15 stable kernel to fix race conditions on device removal. These are reproducible by doing delif while packets are in flight. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger Signed-off-by: Chris Wright Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

[PATCH] bridge: netfilter races on device removal

2006-02-10T07:20:15+00:00

Fix bridge netfilter to handle case where interface is deleted from bridge while packet is being processed (on other CPU). Fixes: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5803 Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger Signed-off-by: Chris Wright Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

[PATCH] BRIDGE: Fix faulty check in br_stp_recalculate_bridge_id()

2006-01-15T06:15:26+00:00

There is a regression in 2.6.15. One of the conversions from memcmp to compare_ether_addr is incorrect. We need to do relative comparison to determine min MAC address to use in bridge id. This will cause the wrong bridge id to be chosen which violates 802.1d Spanning Tree Protocol, and may create forwarding loops.

[BR_NETFILTER]: Fix leak if skb traverses > 1 bridge

2005-12-27T01:27:10+00:00

Call nf_bridge_put() before allocating a new nf_bridge structure and potentially overwriting the pointer to a previously allocated one. This fixes a memory leak which can occur when the bridge topology allows for an skb to traverse more than one bridge. Signed-off-by: David Kimdon Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

[BRIDGE-NF]: Fix bridge-nf ipv6 length check

2005-12-19T22:00:08+00:00

A typo caused some bridged IPv6 packets to get dropped randomly, as reported by Sebastien Chaumontet. The patch below fixes this (using skb->nh.raw instead of raw) and also makes the jumbo packet length checking up-to-date with the code in net/ipv6/exthdrs.c::ipv6_hop_jumbo.

[BRIDGE]: recompute features when adding a new device

2005-11-24T03:04:08+00:00

We must recompute bridge features everytime the list of underlying devices changes, or we might end up with features that are not supported by all devices (eg. NETIF_F_TSO) This patch adds the missing recompute when adding a device to the bridge. Signed-off-by: Olaf Rempel Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

[BRIDGE]: Use ether_compare
