there is not and I don't think we ever get one. My question here was
more in the direction why HID core is doing these synchronously in the
first place. Especially since USB can do everything async as well.

Hi Marcel,

I'm open to suggestions. The way I see it is from a user space 
perspective. With Get_Feature being on an ioctl(), I don't see any clean 
way to do it other than synchronously. Other operating systems (I can 
say for sure Windows, Mac OS X, and FreeBSD) handle Get/Set Feature the 
same way (synchronously) from user space.

You seem to be proposing an asynchronous interface. What would that look 
like from user space?

Alan.

I'm trying..the thing is the freeze occured on the machine that sits
on a 200Mbps ISP in bridge-mode. Since the machine frooze, and the
whole ISP went down for a few minutes, I'm not allowed to run any
tests on it.

I've setup the same scenario on a lab, but since last night been
unable to reproduce the bug. Maybe there's a clue on the this crash
below that can help me write some program to trigger the problem?

Oh I hadn't seen that...  Enrico, can you bisect this issue?  It could

Yeah, this is weird.  Norbert, do you still see this?  Have you tried

Nice catch, but take a look at next lines too,
when call to skb_clone_writable() is done, since same error is present.

	skb_clone_writable(skb,

I'm not sure this is something we want to merge upstream and
support indefinitely. Dave suggested this as a temporary
out-of-tree workaround until the majority of guest dhcp clients
are fixed. Has anything changed that makes this course of
action impractical?

Yes, that's better, although we're usually dropping packets
when mangling fails. This can only happen under memory pressure,
the assumption is that we might be able to properly mangle
the packet when it is retransmitted.

I am using the exact same version (from Debian), and I can also
reproduce it with fedora's iproute2-ss080725.
The kernels are 2.6.35-rc4 and 2.6.27, respectively.. Maybe your
version of iprout is patched as to not use ioctl?

The only thing I could track down is going through squid's cache.log,
I found these 2 entries a second before the general protection fault:

Well

I use the git version of iproute2, this includes following patch.

Nothing very exciting, but this avoids this ioctl() as you guessed ;)

You cannot ask old binaries to handle foo: devices very well, since
this special char (:) had special meaning in old days.

    We currently use an expensive ioctl() to get device txqueuelen, while
    rtnetlink gave it to us for free. This patch speeds up ip link operation
    when many devices are registered.

We could put it into Xtables-addons. That would also be consistent

* [PATCH 001/001] QoS and/or fair queueing: Stateless NAT BUG

Hi all,
I have been testing Stateless NAT and found that ICMP packets with length
less than 20 bytes were not correctly NAT'ed. I have found a BUG that
makes taking into account IP header length twice, so ICMP packets smaller
than 20 bytes were being dropped.

Proposed formal patch is below, as suggested by Eric Dumazet, thanks.
It is taken from 2.6.34.1 stable version.

Are you sure?  I would think that we should make the free_irq() in

Reviewing tproxy stuff I spotted a problem in nf_tproxy_assign_sock()
but I could not see how it could explain your crash.

We can read uninitialized memory and trigger a fault in
nf_tproxy_assign_sock(), not later in tcp_recvmsg()...

David, Patrick, what do you think ?

Thanks

not necessarily from user space, but at least from HID core to HIDP and
usb-hid transports. At least that is what I would expect, Jiri?

Hi all,
I have been testing Stateless NAT and found that ICMP packets with length
less than 20 bytes were not correctly NAT'ed. I have found a BUG that
makes taking into account IP header length twice, so ICMP packets smaller
than 20 bytes were being dropped.

Proposed formal patch is below, as suggested by Eric Dumazet, thanks.
It is taken from 2.6.34.1 stable version.

See balanced functions: net_open() & net_close(), at1700_probe1() &
cleanup_card(). request_irq() is in probe, so it must not be
freed on 'ifconfig down'. E.g.

modprobe at1700 <== request_irq()
ifconfig eth0 up
ifconfig eth0 down <== first free_irq()
ifconfig eth0 up   <== no request_irq() here!
ifconfig eth0 down <== second free_irq()
rmmod at1700 <== third free_irq()

Maybe yes, but I don't know what these damn IO requests mean.
Sure, it's better to request IRQ in xxx_open(), but as it is already
done in probe() I leave it here.

If it is a bug then I do nothing with it, but if it is not then I'll
create a bug.

I don't think it's wise to pepper these calls all over the place if it
is not necessary.

The only reason we vector straight to the TCP implementations of these
I/O routines is to avoid the port autobinding made by the inet_*()
functions.

But now that avoids also the RPS calls.

So it makes sense to just add a boolean state bit flag of some sort
to "struct proto" which says to avoid the autobind calls, then
make TCP vector through the inet_*() functions just like the other
inet protocols do.

Then these extra send_rps_record_flow() annotations will not be
necessary.
