Chuck Lever b79dc8ced1 SUNRPC: RPC bind failures should be permanent for NULL requests
The purpose of an RPC ping (a NULL request) is to determine whether the
remote end is operating and supports the RPC program and version of the
request.

If we do an RPC bind and the remote's rpcbind service says "this
program or service isn't supported" then we have our answer already,
and we should give up immediately.

This is good for the kernel mount client, as it will cause the request
to fail, and then allow an immediate retry with different options.

Chuck Lever 906462af4c SUNRPC: Split another new rpcbind retry error code from EACCES
Add more new error code processing to the kernel's rpcbind client
and to call_bind_status() to distinguish two cases:

Case 1: the remote has replied that the program/version tuple is not
registered (returns EACCES)

Case 2: retry with a lesser rpcbind version (rpcb now returns EPFNOSUPPORT)

This change allows more specific error processing for each of these two
cases.  We now fail case 2 instead of retrying... it's a server
configuration error not to support even rpcbind version 2.  And don't
expose this new error code to user land -- convert it to EIO before
failing the RPC.

Brian Haley bf0b48dfc3 [IPv6]: Fix ICMPv6 redirect handling with target multicast address
When the ICMPv6 Target address is multicast, Linux processes the 
redirect instead of dropping it.  The problem is in this code in 
ndisc_redirect_rcv():

         if (ipv6_addr_equal(dest, target)) {
                 on_link = 1;
         } else if (!(ipv6_addr_type(target) & IPV6_ADDR_LINKLOCAL)) {
                 ND_PRINTK2(KERN_WARNING
                            "ICMPv6 Redirect: target address is not 
link-local.\n");
                 return;
         }

This second check will succeed if the Target address is, for example, 
FF02::1 because it has link-local scope.  Instead, it should be checking 
if it's a unicast link-local address, as stated in RFC 2461/4861 Section 
8.1:

       - The ICMP Target Address is either a link-local address (when
         redirected to a router) or the same as the ICMP Destination
         Address (when redirected to the on-link destination).

I know this doesn't explicitly say unicast link-local address, but it's 
implied.

This bug is preventing Linux kernels from achieving IPv6 Logo Phase II 
certification because of a recent error that was found in the TAHI test 
suite - Neighbor Disovery suite test 206 (v6LC.2.3.6_G) had the 
multicast address in the Destination field instead of Target field, so 
we were passing the test.  This won't be the case anymore.

The patch below fixes this problem, and also fixes ndisc_send_redirect() 
to not send an invalid redirect with a multicast address in the Target 
field.  I re-ran the TAHI Neighbor Discovery section to make sure Linux 
passes all 245 tests now.

Ilpo Järvinen 48611c47d0 [TCP]: Fix fastpath_cnt_hint when GSO skb is partially ACKed
When only GSO skb was partially ACKed, no hints are reset,
therefore fastpath_cnt_hint must be tweaked too or else it can
corrupt fackets_out. The corruption to occur, one must have
non-trivial ACK/SACK sequence, so this bug is not very often
that harmful. There's a fackets_out state reset in TCP because
fackets_out is known to be inaccurate and that fixes the issue
eventually anyway.

In case there was also at least one skb that got fully ACKed,
the fastpath_skb_hint is set to NULL which causes a recount for
fastpath_cnt_hint (the old value won't be accessed anymore),
thus it can safely be decremented without additional checking.

John W. Linville 04045f98e0 [IEEE80211]: avoid integer underflow for runt rx frames
Reported by Chris Evans <scarybeasts@gmail.com>:

> The summary is that an evil 80211 frame can crash out a victim's
> machine. It only applies to drivers using the 80211 wireless code, and
> only then to certain drivers (and even then depends on a card's

> Details are as follows:

> ieee80211_rx() does not explicitly check that "skb->len >= hdrlen".
> There are other skb->len checks, but not enough to prevent a subtle
> off-by-two error if the frame has the IEEE80211_STYPE_QOS_DATA flag
> set.

How about this?

Alexey Kuznetsov 32740ddc10 [SFQ]: Remove artificial limitation for queue limit.
This is followup to Patrick's patch. A little optimization to enqueue
routine allows to remove artificial limitation on queue length.

Plus, testing showed that hash function used by SFQ is too bad or even worse.
It does not even sweep the whole range of hash values.
Switched to Jenkins' hash.

David S. Miller f8ab18d2d9 [TCP]: Fix MD5 signature handling on big-endian.
Based upon a report and initial patch by Peter Lieven.

tcp4_md5sig_key and tcp6_md5sig_key need to start with
the exact same members as tcp_md5sig_key.  Because they
are both cast to that type by tcp_v{4,6}_md5_do_lookup().

Unfortunately tcp{4,6}_md5sig_key use a u16 for the key
length instead of a u8, which is what tcp_md5sig_key
uses.  This just so happens to work by accident on
little-endian, but on big-endian it doesn't.

Instead of casting, just place tcp_md5sig_key as the first member of
the address-family specific structures, adjust the access sites, and
kill off the ugly casts.

David S. Miller e79ad711a0 [NET]: Zero length write() on socket should not simply return 0.
This fixes kernel bugzilla #5731

It should generate an empty packet for datagram protocols when the
socket is connected, for one.

The check is doubly-wrong because all that a write() can be is a
sendmsg() call with a NULL msg_control and a single entry iovec.  No
special semantics should be assigned to it, therefore the zero length
check should be removed entirely.

This matches the behavior of BSD and several other systems.

Alan Cox notes that SuSv3 says the behavior of a zero length write on
non-files is "unspecified", but that's kind of useless since BSD has
defined this behavior for a quarter century and BSD is essentially
what application folks code to.

Based upon a patch from Stephen Hemminger.
