bonding: prevent potential infinite loop in bond_header_parse()

2026-03-17T02:29:45Z

bond_header_parse() can loop if a stack of two bonding devices is setup, because skb->dev always points to the hierarchy top. Add new "const struct net_device *dev" parameter to (struct header_ops)->parse() method to make sure the recursion is bounded, and that the final leaf parse method is called.

Stefan Schmidt says: ==================== pull-request: ieee802154-next 2023-02-20 Miquel Raynal build upon his earlier work and introduced two new features into the ieee802154 stack. Beaconing to announce existing PAN's and passive scanning to discover the beacons and associated PAN's. The matching changes to the userspace configuration tool have been posted as well and will be released together with the kernel release. Arnd Bergmann and Dmitry Torokhov worked on converting the at86rf230 and cc2520 drivers away from the unused platform_data usage and towards the new gpiod API. (I had to add a revert as Dmitry found a regression on an already pushed tree on my side).

mac802154: Handle basic beaconing

2023-01-28T12:55:10Z

Implement the core hooks in order to provide the softMAC layer support for sending beacons. Coordinators may be requested to send beacons in a beacon enabled PAN in order for the other devices around to self discover the available PANs automatically. Changing the channels is prohibited while a beacon operation is ongoing. The implementation uses a workqueue triggered at a certain interval depending on the symbol duration for the current channel and the interval order provided. Sending beacons in response to a BEACON_REQ frame (ie. answering active scans) is not yet supported. This initial patchset has no security support (llsec).

mac802154: Handle passive scanning

2023-01-03T18:48:43Z

Implement the core hooks in order to provide the softMAC layer support for passive scans. Scans are requested by the user and can be aborted. Changing channels manually is prohibited during scans. The implementation uses a workqueue triggered at a certain interval depending on the symbol duration for the current channel and the duration order provided. More advanced drivers with internal scheduling capabilities might require additional care but there is none mainline yet. Received beacons during a passive scan are processed in a work queue and their result forwarded to the upper layer. Active scanning is not supported yet.

mac802154: Allow the creation of coordinator interfaces

2022-11-01T10:23:38Z

As a first strep in introducing proper PAN management and association, we need to be able to create coordinator interfaces which might act as coordinator or PAN coordinator. Hence, let's add the minimum support to allow the creation of these interfaces. Even though the necessary logic to handle several interfaces on the same device is added to make this future move easier, in practice only several interfaces of type MONITOR are allowed at the same time. The other combinations are not allowed (interface creation is possible but only one can be opened at a time) because, with a single PHY featuring a single set of address filters, we cannot afford handling two distinct interfaces (with different address filters or filtering requirements): * Having 2 NODEs, 2 COORDs or 1 NODE + 1 COORD -> cannot work because the address filters would be different * Having 1 MONITOR + either 1 NODE or 1 COORD -> cannot work because the filtering levels are incompatible Signed-off-by: Miquel Raynal Acked-by: Alexander Aring Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20221026093502.602734-4-miquel.raynal@bootlin.com Signed-off-by: Stefan Schmidt

mac802154: Clarify an expression

2022-11-01T10:23:28Z

While going through the whole interface opening logic in my head I was consistently bothered by the condition checking whether there was only one interface of type NODE/COORD opened at the same time. What actually bothered me was the fact that in one case we would use the wpan_dev pointer directly while in the other case we would use the sdata pointer, making it harder to differentiate both. In practice the condition should be straightforward to read. IMHO dropping the wpan_dev indirection allows to clarify the check.

mac802154: set filter at drv_start()

2022-10-12T10:56:58Z

The current filtering level is set on the first interface up on a wpan phy. If we support scan functionality we need to change the filtering level on the fly on an operational phy and switching back again. This patch will move the receive mode parameter e.g. address filter and promiscuous mode to the drv_start() functionality to allow changing the receive mode on an operational phy not on first ifup only. In future this should be handled on driver layer because each hardware has it's own way to enter a specific filtering level. However this should offer to switch to mode IEEE802154_FILTERING_NONE and back to IEEE802154_FILTERING_4_FRAME_FIELDS. Only IEEE802154_FILTERING_4_FRAME_FIELDS and IEEE802154_FILTERING_NONE are somewhat supported by current hardware. All other filtering levels can be supported in future but will end in IEEE802154_FILTERING_NONE as the receive part can kind of "emulate" those receive paths by doing additional filtering routines. There are in total three filtering levels in the code: - the per-interface default level (should not be changed) - the required per-interface level (mac commands may play with it) - the actual per-PHY (hw) level that is currently in use Signed-off-by: Alexander Aring [ Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20221007085310.503366-4-miquel.raynal@bootlin.com Signed-off-by: Stefan Schmidt
