mkiss: Fix error handling in mkiss_open()

2015-08-11T04:10:31Z

If register_netdev() fails we are not propagating the error and we return success because ax_open() succeeded previously. Fix this by checking the return value of ax_open() and register_netdev() and propagate the error in case of failure. Reported-by: RUC_Soft_Sec Signed-off-by: Fabio Estevam Signed-off-by: David S.

NET: hamradio: Fix IP over bpq encapsulation.

2015-07-08T21:09:03Z

Since 1d5da757da860a6916adbf68b09e868062b4b3b8 (ax25: Stop using magic neighbour cache operations.) any attempt to transmit IP packets over a bpqether device will result in a message like "Dead loop on virtual device bpq0, fix it urgently!" Fix suggested by Eric W. Biederman . Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle Cc: # 4.1 Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

netfilter: Remove spurios included of netfilter.h

2015-06-18T19:14:32Z

While testing my netfilter changes I noticed several files where recompiling unncessarily because they unncessarily included netfilter.h. Signed-off-by: "Eric W. Biederman" Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso

ax25: remove unneeded NULL test in ax_xmit()

2015-03-07T02:50:42Z

We get a static checker warning here on devel kernels: drivers/net/hamradio/mkiss.c:560 ax_xmit() warn: variable dereferenced before check 'skb' (see line 532) It turns out that the NULL check can be deleted. Signed-off-by: Dan Carpenter Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

ax25: Stop using magic neighbour cache operations.

2015-03-03T19:44:41Z

Before the ax25 stack calls dev_queue_xmit it always calls ax25_type_trans which sets skb->protocol to ETH_P_AX25. Which means that by looking at the protocol type it is possible to detect IP packets that have not been munged by the ax25 stack in ndo_start_xmit and call a function to munge them. Rename ax25_neigh_xmit to ax25_ip_xmit and tweak the return type and value to be appropriate for an ndo_start_xmit function. Update all of the ax25 devices to test the protocol type for ETH_P_IP and return ax25_ip_xmit as the first thing they do. This preserves the existing semantics of IP packet processing, but the timing will be a little different as the IP packets now pass through the qdisc layer before reaching the ax25 ip packet processing. Remove the now unnecessary ax25 neighbour table operations. Signed-off-by: "Eric W. Biederman" Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

ax25: Refactor to use private neighbour operations.

2015-03-02T21:43:40Z

AX25 already has it's own private arp cache operations to isolate it's abuse of dev_rebuild_header to transmit packets. Add a function ax25_neigh_construct that will allow all of the ax25 devices to force using these operations, so that the generic arp code does not need to.

hamradio: 6pack: remove unnecessary check

2014-11-03T20:34:31Z

this is check for dev is unnecessary, as we are already checking dev after allocating it via alloc_netdev, and jumping to label: out if it is NULL. Signed-off-by: Sudip Mukherjee Signed-off-by: David S. Miller
