2026-07-08netfilter: handle unreadable fragsFlorian Westphal
sashiko reports: When an skb with unreadable fragments (such as from devmem TCP, where skb_frags_readable(skb) returns false) is processed by the u32 module, skb_copy_bits() will safely return a negative error code [..] xt_u32: bail out with hotdrop in this case. gather_frags: return -1, just as if we had no fragment header. nfnetlink_queue: restrict to the linear part. nfnetlink_log: restrict to the linear part. v2: - skb_zerocopy helpers don't copy readable flag, i.e. nfnetlink_queue is broken too xt_u32 shouldn't return true if hotdrop was set.

2026-07-08netfilter: flowtable: support IPIP tunnel with direct xmitPablo Neira Ayuso
The combination of IPIP tunnel with direct xmit, eg. bridge device, breaks because no dst_entry is provided to check the skb headroom and to set the iph->frag_off field. This leads to invalid dst usage and can trigger a crash in the tunnel transmit path. Fix this by moving dst_cache and dst_cookie out of the runtime union so that they can be shared by neighbour, xfrm, and direct tunnel flows. For FLOW_OFFLOAD_XMIT_DIRECT tuples carrying tunnel metadata, preserve route state in these shared fields and release it through the common dst release path. Since dst_entry is now available to the three supported xmit modes and dst_release() already deals with NULL dst, remove the xmit type check in nft_flow_dst_release(). Moreover, skip the check if the dst entry is NULL in nf_flow_dst_check() which is now the case for the direct xmit case. Based on patch from Rein Wei <n05ec@lzu.edu.cn>.

2026-07-08netfilter: flowtable: IPIP tunnel hardware offload is not yet supportPablo Neira Ayuso
No driver supports for IPIP tunnels yet, give up early on setting up the hardware offload for this scenario. This patch adds a stub that can be enhanced to add more configuration that are currently not supported. As of now, the offload work is enqueued to the worker, then ignored if the hardware offload configuration is not supported. Check the NF_FLOW_HW flag to know if this entry was already tried once to be offloaded so this is not retried on refresh when unsupported. Move NF_FLOW_HW flag check to nf_flow_offload_add(). If this NF_FLOW_HW flag is unset the _del and _stats variants are never called. This can be updated later on to skip hardware offload work to be queued in case hardware offload does not support it.

2026-07-08netfilter: flowtable: use dst in this direction when pushing IPIP headerPablo Neira Ayuso
When pushing the IPIP header, the route of the other direction is used to calculate the headroom, use the route in this direction. Accessing the other tuple to set the IP source and destination is fine because this tuple does not provide such information to avoid storing redundant information. However, this tuple already provides the dst for this direction, this went unnoticed because this bug affects headroom and iph->frag_off only at this stage.

2026-07-08netfilter: ipset: exclude gc when resize is in progressJozsef Kadlecsik
Zhengchuan Liang and Eulgyu Kim reported that because resize does not copy the comment extension into the resized set but uses it's pointer, ongoing gc can free the extension in the original set which then results stale pointer in the resized one. The proposed patch was to recreate the extensions for every element in the resized set. It is both expensive and wastes memory, so better exclude gc when resizing in progress detected: resizing will destroy the original set anyway, so doing gc on it is unnecessary. Introduce a new spinlock to exclude parallel gc and resize. Because we just set and check a bool value, there's no need for the parameter to be atomic_t and rename it for better readability.

2026-07-08netfilter: nft_lookup: fix catchall element handling with inverted lookupsTamaki Yanagawa
nft_lookup_eval() decides whether a lookup matched (`found`) from the direct set lookup and priv->invert before falling back to the catchall element used by interval sets (e.g. nft_set_rbtree) for the open-ended default range. Since `found` is never recomputed after `ext` is replaced by the catchall lookup, inverted lookups (NFT_LOOKUP_F_INV, "!= @set") can wrongly match or wrongly skip the catchall element, producing the wrong verdict.

sashiko reports: looking at ebtables table translation, could a sparse cpu_possible_mask lead to an uninitialized pointer free? If cpu_possible_mask is sparse (for example, CPU 0 and CPU 2 are possible, but CPU 1 is not), the allocation loop skips CPU 1. If vmalloc_node() fails at CPU 2, the cleanup loop will blindly decrement and call vfree() on newinfo->chainstack[1]. Not a real-world bug, such allocation isn't expected to fail in the first place.

2026-07-08netfilter: nf_conntrack_reasm: guard mac_header adjustment after IPv6 defragXiang Mei
nf_ct_frag6_reasm() slides the packet head forward to drop the IPv6 fragment header and then unconditionally advances skb->mac_header: skb->mac_header += sizeof(struct frag_hdr); On the NF_INET_LOCAL_OUT defrag path the skb has no link-layer header yet, so skb->mac_header is still the "not set" sentinel (u16)~0U. Adding sizeof(struct frag_hdr) wraps it to a small value (0xffff + 8 == 7), after which skb_mac_header_was_set() wrongly reports a MAC header is present and skb_mac_header() points into the headroom. The reassembler has done this unconditional add since it was introduced; it was harmless while mac_header was a bare pointer, but wrong once mac_header became a u16 offset whose unset state is the ~0U sentinel tested by skb_mac_header_was_set(). The sibling net/ipv6/reassembly.c does the same relocation and does guard the adjustment; mirror the guard here. Fixes: 9fb9cbb1082d ("[NETFILTER]: Add nf_conntrack subsystem.")

2026-07-08ipv4: igmp: Fix potential memory leaks in igmp_mod_timer() and igmp_stop_timer()Eric Dumazet
When a timer is deleted and not re-armed in igmp_mod_timer(), or stopped in igmp_stop_timer(), the code currently decrements the reference counter of the multicast list entry @im using refcount_dec(&im->refcnt). However, both functions can be called from the RCU reader path: - igmp_mod_timer() via igmp_heard_query() -> for_each_pmc_rcu() - igmp_stop_timer() via igmp_rcv() -> igmp_heard_report() If the group im was concurrently removed from the list by ip_mc_dec_group(), its reference count might have already been decremented to 1. In this case, timer_delete() succeeds, and refcount_dec() decrements the refcount from 1 to 0. Since refcount_dec() does not free the object when it hits 0 (unlike ip_ma_put()), the im structure is leaked. Fix this by using ip_ma_put(im) instead of refcount_dec(&im->refcnt), and deferring the put until after the spinlock is released.

2026-07-08ipv6: mcast: Fix potential UAF in MLD delayed workEric Dumazet
A race condition exists between device teardown and incoming MLD query processing, leading to a Use-After-Free in the MLD delayed work. During device destruction, the primary reference to inet6_dev is dropped, which can drop its refcount to 0. The actual freeing of inet6_dev memory is deferred via RCU. Concurrently, the packet receive path runs under RCU read lock and obtains the inet6_dev pointer. Because the memory is RCU-protected, CPU-0 can safely dereference inet6_dev even if its refcount has hit 0. However, if CPU-0 calls igmp6_event_query() and schedules delayed work, it attempts to acquire a reference using in6_dev_hold(). This increments the refcount from 0 to 1, triggering a "refcount_t: addition on 0" warning. Since the inet6_dev memory is still scheduled to be freed after the RCU grace period, the device is freed while the work is still scheduled. When the work runs, it accesses the freed memory, causing a kernel panic. Fix this by using refcount_inc_not_zero() (via a new helper in6_dev_hold_safe()) to prevent acquiring a reference if the device is already being destroyed. If the refcount is 0, we do not schedule the work.

2026-07-08ipv4: igmp: Fix potential UAF in igmp_gq_start_timer()Eric Dumazet
A race condition exists between device teardown (inetdev_destroy) and incoming IGMP query processing (igmp_rcv), leading to a Use-After-Free in the IGMP timer callback. During device destruction, inetdev_destroy() drops the primary reference to in_device, which can drop its refcount to 0. The actual freeing of in_device memory is deferred via RCU (using call_rcu()). Concurrently, igmp_rcv() runs under RCU read lock and obtains the in_device pointer. Because the memory is RCU-protected, CPU-0 can safely dereference in_device even if its refcount has hit 0. However, if CPU-0 calls igmp_gq_start_timer() and re-arms the timer, it attempts to acquire a reference using in_dev_hold(). This increments the refcount from 0 to 1, triggering a "refcount_t: addition on 0" warning. Since the in_device memory is still scheduled to be freed after the RCU grace period (as the free callback does not check the refcount again), the device is freed while the timer is still armed. When the timer expires, it accesses the freed memory, causing a kernel panic. Fix this by using refcount_inc_not_zero() (via a new helper in_dev_hold_safe()) to prevent acquiring a reference if the device is already being destroyed. If the refcount is 0, we do not arm the timer. A similar issue in IPv6 MLD is fixed in a subsequent patch.

2026-07-08net/sched: cake: reject overhead values that underflow lengthSamuel Moelius
CAKE accepts signed overhead values and stores them in an s16, but the adjusted packet length calculation uses unsigned arithmetic. A negative effective length can therefore wrap to a large value. Such configurations make rate accounting depend on integer wraparound rather than on the packet size userspace intended to model. A static netlink lower bound is not enough because packets reaching CAKE can be smaller than any reasonable manual-overhead allowance. Fold the signed overhead adjustment into the existing datapath MPU clamp so negative adjusted lengths are clamped before link-layer framing adjustments.

2026-07-08devlink: print controller prefix for non-zero controllerMoshe Shemesh
The controller prefix (c<N>) in phys_port_name is currently restricted to external host controllers. This layout sufficed when DPUs only had a single local controller and one or more external host controllers. However, newer devices can have multiple controllers within the DPU itself, even within a single host environment. To support these topologies, allow drivers to report the controller number regardless of the "external" flag status. Any non-zero controller number will now be explicitly reported, even for single-host or local DPU controllers. Existing ports with controller=0 are unaffected. Update documentation and kdoc to clarify that a non-zero controller number does not require the external flag to be set.

2026-07-07ipv4: igmp: remove multicast group from hash table on device destructionYuyang Huang
When a device is destroyed under RTNL, ip_mc_destroy_dev() iterates through the multicast list and calls ip_ma_put() on each membership, scheduling them for RCU reclamation. However, they are not unlinked from the device's multicast hash table (mc_hash). Since the device remains published in dev->ip_ptr until after ip_mc_destroy_dev() completes, concurrent RCU readers traversing mc_hash can still locate and access the multicast group after its refcount is decremented.

2026-07-07devlink: Allow rate node parents from other devlinksCosmin Ratiu
This commit makes use of the building blocks previously added to implement cross-device rate nodes. A new 'supported_cross_device_rate_nodes' bool is added to devlink_ops which lets drivers advertise support for cross-device rate objects. If enabled and if there is a common shared devlink instance, then: - all rate objects will be stored in the top-most common nested instance and - rate objects can have parents from other devices sharing the same common instance. Storing rates in the common shared ancestor is safe, because it is reference counted by its nested devlink instances, so it's guaranteed to outlive them. Furthermore, the shared devlink infra guarantees a given nested devlink hierarchy is managed by the same driver. The parent devlink from info->ctx is not locked, so none of its mutable fields can be used. But parent setting only requires comparing devlink pointer comparisons. Additionally, since the shared devlink is locked, other rate operations cannot concurrently happen.

For now this is the same as devlink_rate->devlink. After this patch, the devlink rates stored in this devlink instance could potentially be from multiple other devlink instances.

2026-07-07net/tls: Consume empty data records in tls_sw_read_sock()Chuck Lever
A peer may send a zero-length TLS application_data record; TLS 1.3 explicitly permits these as a traffic-analysis countermeasure (RFC 8446, Section 5.1). After decryption such a record has full_len == 0. tls_sw_read_sock() hands it to the read_actor, which has no payload to consume and returns zero. The loop treats a zero return as backpressure (used <= 0), requeues the skb at the head of rx_list, and stops. rx_list is serviced head-first on the next call, so the empty record is dequeued, fails the same way, and is requeued again; every later record on the connection is blocked behind it. tls_sw_recvmsg() does not stall on this: a zero-length data record copies nothing and falls through to consume_skb(). Mirror that in the read_sock() path by recognizing an empty data record before the actor runs, consuming it, and continuing.

2026-07-07wifi: cfg80211: validate rx/tx MLME callback frame lengths before accessZhao Li
cfg80211_rx_mlme_mgmt() and cfg80211_tx_mlme_mgmt() call tracepoints before rejecting frames shorter than the frame-control field. After that, they only require len >= 2 before dispatching into subtype handlers that assume their fixed fields are present. The frames that trip this are not shorter than 2 bytes; they are short relative to their subtype. mwifiex is a concrete in-tree example on the length side: mwifiex_process_mgmt_packet() only requires a 4-address ieee80211_hdr plus the 2-byte firmware length prefix before handing the frame to cfg80211_rx_mlme_mgmt(). After stripping the length prefix and removing addr4, pkt_len can be exactly 24: a bare 3-address management header with no reason-code body. The existing WARN_ON(len < 2) does not fire on such a frame, and cfg80211_process_deauth() then reads u.deauth.reason_code as a two-byte access starting at offset 24, immediately past the 24-byte buffer. Add a frame-control length gate, then validate each subtype's minimum frame size in an if/else-if chain that mirrors the dispatch logic. Trace only after the frame is known to be well-formed. Side effects of this change: - The WARN_ON(len < 2) is dropped. It only guarded the frame_control read, never the subtype fixed fields, and it does not fire on the frames that actually trigger the out-of-bounds read (which are >= 2). The len >= 2 check is kept as the guard before dereferencing frame_control, but without the warning: these are exported callbacks and a malformed frame from a driver should be dropped silently rather than backtraced. - cfg80211_tx_mlme_mgmt() previously routed every non-deauth subtype through disassociation handling; it now silently ignores unrecognised subtypes.

While leaving an IBSS in ieee80211_ibss_disconnect() mac80211 flushes stations, turns the carrier off and immediately tells the driver to leave as well. While there may be synchronize_net() in station flush and in this code later, packets can still be transmitted due to cross-CPU race conditions after carrier off is set. Therefore, it's possible for a race to happen where a TX to the driver occurs while or after telling it to leave the IBSS. This can be confusing to drivers, and in the case of iwlwifi leads to an attempt to use invalid queues. Move netif_carrier_off() to occur before sta_info_flush() during IBSS disconnect, and add synchronize_net() if flushing didn't, so that the synchronize_net() always happens between turning the carrier off and telling the driver, avoiding this race.

nl80211_netlink_notify() walks the cfg80211 wireless device list when a NETLINK_GENERIC socket is released. If the socket owns a connection, the notifier queues the embedded wdev->disconnect_wk work item. That work is a plain work_struct today. NETDEV_GOING_DOWN cancels it, but a NETLINK_URELEASE notifier that already observed conn_owner_nlportid can queue it after that cancel returns. _cfg80211_unregister_wdev() then removes the wdev from the list and waits for RCU readers, but synchronize_net() does not drain work queued by such a reader. Make the autodisconnect work a wiphy_work instead. The callback already needs the wiphy mutex, and wiphy_work runs under that mutex. This lets teardown cancel pending autodisconnect work while holding the mutex, without a cancel_work_sync() vs. worker locking concern. Also cancel the wiphy work after list_del_rcu() and synchronize_net().

2026-07-06wifi: cfg80211: support MAC address filtering in station dump for link statsP Praneesh
Currently, when userspace requests station information with link statistics using NL80211_CMD_GET_STATION with the NL80211_ATTR_STA_DUMP_LINK_STATS flag, the kernel uses the .doit callback (nl80211_get_station) which sends a single netlink message. For MLO stations with multiple links, the link statistics can be large and may exceed the maximum netlink message size, causing the operation to fail with -EMSGSIZE. The .dumpit callback (nl80211_dump_station) already supports fragmentation across multiple netlink messages, making it suitable for handling large link statistics. However, it currently iterates over all stations on the interface, which is inefficient when userspace only wants information about a specific station. Add support for MAC address filtering in nl80211_dump_station to allow userspace to request fragmented link statistics for a specific station. When NL80211_ATTR_MAC is present in a dump request, cache the MAC address in the dump context and use rdev_get_station() to retrieve information for only that station, instead of iterating over all stations with rdev_dump_station(). This allows userspace tools (like iw) to use NL80211_CMD_GET_STATION with NLM_F_DUMP flag to retrieve complete link statistics for a specific station across multiple netlink messages, avoiding the message size limitation.

2026-07-06wifi: cfg80211: Fragment per-link station stats in nl80211_dump_station()P Praneesh
In MLO scenarios, stations may have multiple links, each with distinct statistics. When userspace tools like iw or hostapd request station dumps, attempting to pack all per-link stats into a single netlink message can easily exceed the default 4KB buffer limit, especially when more than two links are active. This results in -EMSGSIZE errors and incomplete data delivery. To address this, fragment per-link station statistics across multiple netlink messages to ensure reliable delivery of complete MLO station information. Extend the stateful context with a two-phase dump mechanism: phase 0 (AGGREGATED) sends combined MLO-level statistics and phase 1 (PER_LINK) sends individual per-link statistics for each active link. The dump loop is structured to produce exactly one netlink message per iteration, with a common header (ifindex, wdev, mac, generation) built once and phase-specific payload added via a switch statement. This keeps header construction in one place and makes the EMSGSIZE bail-out uniform. Add a new request flag attribute, NL80211_ATTR_STA_DUMP_LINK_STATS (NLA_FLAG), for NL80211_CMD_GET_STATION dump. Userspace can set this flag to request per-link station statistics for MLO stations. Extract this flag during the first dump invocation by passing an attrbuf to nl80211_prepare_wdev_dump(); use __free(kfree) to avoid scattered manual kfree() calls. Cache the boolean in the dump context to avoid repeated parsing on subsequent invocations. Per-link messages carry a single NL80211_ATTR_MLO_LINKS nest with the link ID, link-specific MAC, and per-link NL80211_ATTR_STA_INFO payload. The link-specific validity (is_valid_ether_addr) and null pointer guard are checked in nl80211_put_link_station_payload() before any message construction begins. Also fix all nla_nest_start_noflag() calls in nl80211_fill_link_station() for nested attribute types (STA_INFO, BSS_PARAM, TID_STATS, per-tid) to use nla_nest_start() so the NLA_F_NESTED flag is set correctly. Propagate the actual return value from nl80211_put_sta_info_common() in the AGGREGATED phase rather than returning skb->len. Returning skb->len signals netlink to re-invoke the dump with the same sta_idx, causing an infinite loop when the aggregated payload is too large to fit; returning the real error code (-EMSGSIZE or otherwise) terminates the dump cleanly. Backward compatibility is seamlessly preserved for non-MLO stations.

2026-07-06wifi: cfg80211: Refactor nl80211_dump_station() to prepare for per-link statsP Praneesh
Currently, nl80211_dump_station() relies on the netlink callback's generic args array (cb->args[2]) to track the station index during dumps. It also processes the entire sinfo structure and transmits it to userspace immediately in a single pass. This approach creates a bottleneck for MLO. When an MLD station has multiple active links, the aggregated station information, combined with the individual per-link statistics, can easily exceed the maximum netlink message size limits. The current monolithic dump iteration cannot pause and resume mid-station to fragment these large per-link statistics across multiple netlink messages. Introduce a stateful context structure (struct nl80211_dump_station_ctx) allocated during the dump to track the iteration state. Store the context pointer directly at cb->args[2], following the same pattern as nl80211_dump_wiphy which stores its state pointer at cb->args[0]. Move the station index (sta_idx) tracking and the sinfo payload into this context. The per-station netlink message is built inline in the loop: common header attributes are assembled directly, then nl80211_put_sta_info_common() adds the STA_INFO payload. Furthermore, move the NL80211_CMD_GET_STATION command definition from genl_small_ops to genl_ops to natively support the .done callback. Implement nl80211_dump_station_done() to ensure the newly allocated state context and its deeply allocated sinfo payload are safely freed when the dump concludes or is aborted prematurely by userspace. Note that the previous dump path used nl80211_send_station(), which included NL80211_ATTR_IE and NL80211_ATTR_RESP_IE. These attributes are not carried forward in this implementation. As documented, association response IEs (assoc_resp_ies) are only relevant at station creation time (e.g. via cfg80211_new_sta()) to notify userspace about association details, and are not expected to be part of get_station()/dump_station() callbacks. Aligning with this expectation, these IEs are intentionally omitted here. This refactoring maintains the existing netlink batching performance while laying the stateful foundation required for per-link statistics fragmentation in subsequent patches. At out_err_release, cfg80211_sinfo_release_content() frees any dynamically allocated sub-fields inside ctx->sinfo (including per-link pointers in sinfo.links[]). Without the subsequent memset, those pointers remain non-NULL in the embedded sinfo. When the dump concludes or is aborted, nl80211_dump_station_done() calls cfg80211_sinfo_release_content() a second time on the same ctx->sinfo, which would free the already-released link memory. The memset(&ctx->sinfo, 0, sizeof(ctx->sinfo)) zeroes all pointers so the second release call hits kfree(NULL), which is a harmless no-op.

2026-07-06wifi: cfg80211: Add helper to pack station-level STA_INFOP Praneesh
Add a helper function nl80211_put_sta_info_common() to pack the station-level (aggregated) STA information into a netlink message. This prepares the code for future enhancements such as supporting fragmented link statistics in nl80211_dump_station.

2026-07-06wifi: cfg80211: Drop unused link stats handling in nl80211_send_station()P Praneesh
Remove the link level statistics handling from nl80211_send_station() and drop the unused link_stats parameter from its signature and callers. The removed code iterated over each MLO link and attempted to send link specific station data through NL80211_ATTR_MLO_LINKS, but this logic was never used because link_stats was always false. This logic was introduced during early work on link level station statistics with the intention of reporting information for each link. Due to message size concerns when a station has multiple links, the feature was disabled behind the link_stats flag and remained unused. The link level reporting block in nl80211_send_station() is dead code and cannot support larger messages, so remove it. This cleanup also prepares for proper link level statistics reporting in nl80211_dump_station() in a later patch, where fragmentation allows safe transmission of multi link data. Also fix label indentation: the nla_put_failure label had an erroneous leading space.

2026-07-06Bluetooth: L2CAP: fix tx ident leak for commands without a responseStig Hornang
Commit 6c3ea155e5ee ("Bluetooth: L2CAP: Fix not tracking outstanding TX ident") changed ident allocation to use an IDA, releasing idents in l2cap_put_ident() when the matching response command is received. But identifiers allocated for commands that have no response defined are never released. In particular L2CAP_LE_CREDITS is sent repeatedly for the lifetime of an LE CoC channel, so a peer streaming data to the host exhausts the 1-255 ident range after 254 credit packets. From then on l2cap_get_ident() fails: kernel: Bluetooth: Unable to allocate ident: -28 and every subsequent L2CAP_LE_CREDITS packet is sent with ident 0, which is invalid (Core Spec, Vol 3, Part A, Section 4: "Signaling identifier 0x00 is an invalid identifier and shall never be used in any command"). Remote stacks that validate the ident drop these commands, never receive new credits, and the channel stalls permanently. With default socket buffers this happens after roughly 0.5 MB of received data (the exact amount depends on the socket receive buffer): < ACL Data TX: Handle 2048 flags 0x00 dlen 12 LE L2CAP: LE Flow Control Credit (0x16) ident 0 len 4 Source CID: 64 Credits: 1 Release the ident immediately after sending L2CAP_LE_CREDITS since no response will ever release it. Use a local variable instead of chan->ident so that an ident that an EXT_FLOWCTL channel may be waiting on (e.g. a pending reconfigure) is not overwritten by a credit packet. Also add the missing L2CAP_LE_CONN_RSP case to l2cap_put_ident() so idents allocated for outgoing L2CAP_LE_CONN_REQ commands are released when the response arrives.

2026-07-06Bluetooth: ISO: fix malformed ISO_END/CONT handlingPauli Virtanen
Core specification (Part C vol 4 sec 5.4.5) does not exclude empty ISO_CONT, ISO_END packets. We currently reject them if they are last. If controller sends malformed sequence ISO_START -> rx_len = 4, ISO_CONT skb->len 4, ISO_START that ends payload in ISO_CONT, we leak conn->rx_skb. If controller sends too long ISO_END, we panic on skb_put. If controller sends too short ISO_END we accept it. Fix by marking unfinished ISO_START via conn->rx_skb != NULL. Check skb->len properly before skb_put. Combine the ISO_CONT/END code paths as they require the same initial checks. Reject too short ISO_END packets.

2026-07-06Bluetooth: L2CAP: Fix use-after-free in l2cap_sock_new_connection_cb()Siwei Zhang
l2cap_sock_new_connection_cb() returned l2cap_pi(sk)->chan after release_sock(parent). Once the parent lock is dropped the newly enqueued child socket sk is reachable via the accept queue, so another task can accept and free it before the callback dereferences sk, resulting in a use-after-free. Rework the ->new_connection() op so the core, rather than the callback, owns the child channel's lifetime. The op now receives a pre-allocated new_chan and returns an errno instead of allocating and returning a channel. l2cap_new_connection() allocates the child channel and links it into the conn list via __l2cap_chan_add() before invoking the callback, so the conn-list reference keeps the channel alive once release_sock(parent) exposes the socket to other tasks. Channel configuration that was duplicated in l2cap_sock_init() and the various new_connection callbacks is consolidated into l2cap_chan_set_defaults(), which now inherits from the parent channel when one is supplied.
