Eric Dumazet ec733b15a3 net: snmp mib cleanup
There is no point to align or pad mibs to cache lines, they are per cpu
allocated with a 8 bytes alignment anyway.
This wastes space for no gain. This patch removes __SNMP_MIB_ALIGN__

Since SNMP mibs contain "unsigned long" fields only, we can relax the
allocation alignment from "unsigned long long" to "unsigned long"

Eric Dumazet 907cdda520 tcp: Add SNMP counter for DEFER_ACCEPT
Its currently hard to diagnose when ACK frames are dropped because an
application set TCP_DEFER_ACCEPT on its listening socket.

See http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15507

This patch adds a SNMP value, named TCPDeferAcceptDrop

netstat -s | grep TCPDeferAcceptDrop
    TCPDeferAcceptDrop: 0

This counter is incremented every time we drop a pure ACK frame received
by a socket in SYN_RECV state because its SYNACK retrans count is lower
than defer_accept value.

YOSHIFUJI Hideaki b2db756449 ipv6: Reduce timer events for addrconf_verify().
This patch reduces timer events while keeping accuracy by rounding
our timer and/or batching several address validations in addrconf_verify().

addrconf_verify() is called at earliest timeout among interface addresses'
timeouts, but at maximum ADDR_CHECK_FREQUENCY (120 secs).

In most cases, all of timeouts of interface addresses are long enough
(e.g. several hours or days vs 2 minutes), this timer is usually called
every ADDR_CHECK_FREQUENCY, and it is okay to be lazy.
(Note this timer could be eliminated if all code paths which modifies
variables related to timeouts call us manually, but it is another story.)

However, in other least but important cases, we try keeping accuracy.

When the real interface address timeout is coming, and the timeout
is just before the rounded timeout, we accept some error.

When a timeout has been reached, we also try batching other several
events in very near future.

Steven J. Magnani 73852e8151 NET_DMA: free skbs periodically
Under NET_DMA, data transfer can grind to a halt when userland issues a
large read on a socket with a high RCVLOWAT (i.e., 512 KB for both).
This appears to be because the NET_DMA design queues up lots of memcpy
operations, but doesn't issue or wait for them (and thus free the
associated skbs) until it is time for tcp_recvmesg() to return.
The socket hangs when its TCP window goes to zero before enough data is
available to satisfy the read.

Periodically issue asynchronous memcpy operations, and free skbs for ones
that have completed, to prevent sockets from going into zero-window mode.

Xfrm_dst keeps a reference to ipv4 rtable entries on each
cached bundle. The only way to renew xfrm_dst when the underlying
route has changed, is to implement dst_check for this. This is
what ipv6 side does too.

The problems started after 87c1e12b5e
("ipsec: Fix bogus bundle flowi") which fixed a bug causing xfrm_dst
to not get reused, until that all lookups always generated new
xfrm_dst with new route reference and path mtu worked. But after the
fix, the old routes started to get reused even after they were expired
causing pmtu to break (well it would occationally work if the rtable
gc had run recently and marked the route obsolete causing dst_check to
get called).

Forward port commit
fc477e160af086f6e30c3d4fdf5f5c000d29beb5
from git://tipc.cslab.ericsson.net/pub/git/people/allan/tipc.git

Origional commit message:

Allow retransmission of cloned buffers

This patch fixes an issue with TIPC's message retransmission logic
that prevented retransmission of clone sk_buffs.  Originally intended
as a means of avoiding wasted work in retransmitting messages that
were still on the driver's outbound queue, it also prevented TIPC
from retransmitting messages through other means -- such as the
secondary bearer of the broadcast link, or another interface in a
set of bonded interfaces.  This fix removes existing checks for
cloned sk_buffs that prevented such retransmission.

from git://tipc.cslab.ericsson.net/pub/git/people/allan/tipc.git

Origional commit message:
Increase frequency of load distribution over broadcast link

This patch enhances the behavior of TIPC's broadcast link so that it
alternates between redundant bearers (if available) after every
message sent, rather than after every 10 messages.  This change helps
to speed up delivery of retransmitted messages by ensuring that
they are not sent repeatedly over a bearer that is no longer working,
but not yet recognized as failed.

Tested by myself in the latest net-2.6 tree using the tipc sanity test suite

Tom Herbert 0a9627f264 rps: Receive Packet Steering
This patch implements software receive side packet steering (RPS).  RPS
distributes the load of received packet processing across multiple CPUs.

Problem statement: Protocol processing done in the NAPI context for received
packets is serialized per device queue and becomes a bottleneck under high
packet load.  This substantially limits pps that can be achieved on a single
queue NIC and provides no scaling with multiple cores.

This solution queues packets early on in the receive path on the backlog queues
of other CPUs.   This allows protocol processing (e.g. IP and TCP) to be
performed on packets in parallel.   For each device (or each receive queue in
a multi-queue device) a mask of CPUs is set to indicate the CPUs that can
process packets. A CPU is selected on a per packet basis by hashing contents
of the packet header (e.g. the TCP or UDP 4-tuple) and using the result to index
into the CPU mask.  The IPI mechanism is used to raise networking receive
softirqs between CPUs.  This effectively emulates in software what a multi-queue
NIC can provide, but is generic requiring no device support.

Many devices now provide a hash over the 4-tuple on a per packet basis
(e.g. the Toeplitz hash).  This patch allow drivers to set the HW reported hash
in an skb field, and that value in turn is used to index into the RPS maps.
Using the HW generated hash can avoid cache misses on the packet when
steering it to a remote CPU.

The CPU mask is set on a per device and per queue basis in the sysfs variable
/sys/class/net/<device>/queues/rx-<n>/rps_cpus.  This is a set of canonical
bit maps for receive queues in the device (numbered by <n>).  If a device
does not support multi-queue, a single variable is used for the device (rx-0).

Generally, we have found this technique increases pps capabilities of a single
queue device with good CPU utilization.  Optimal settings for the CPU mask
seem to depend on architectures and cache hierarcy.  Below are some results
running 500 instances of netperf TCP_RR test with 1 byte req. and resp.
Results show cumulative transaction rate and system CPU utilization.

e1000e on 8 core Intel
   Without RPS: 108K tps at 33% CPU
   With RPS:    311K tps at 64% CPU

forcedeth on 16 core AMD
   Without RPS: 156K tps at 15% CPU
   With RPS:    404K tps at 49% CPU

bnx2x on 16 core AMD
   Without RPS  567K tps at 61% CPU (4 HW RX queues)
   Without RPS  738K tps at 96% CPU (8 HW RX queues)
   With RPS:    854K tps at 76% CPU (4 HW RX queues)

Caveats:
- The benefits of this patch are dependent on architecture and cache hierarchy.
Tuning the masks to get best performance is probably necessary.
- This patch adds overhead in the path for processing a single packet.  In
a lightly loaded server this overhead may eliminate the advantages of
increased parallelism, and possibly cause some relative performance degradation.
We have found that masks that are cache aware (share same caches with
the interrupting CPU) mitigate much of this.
- The RPS masks can be changed dynamically, however whenever the mask is changed
this introduces the possibility of generating out of order packets.  It's
probably best not change the masks too frequently.

contend for this single lock. However, it should not be necessary to

Andy Grover 2e7b3b9945 RDS: Fix congestion issues for loopback
We have two kinds of loopback: software (via loop transport)
and hardware (via IB). sw is used for 127.0.0.1, and doesn't
support rdma ops. hw is used for sends to local device IPs,
and supports rdma. Both are used in different cases.

For both of these, when there is a congestion map update, we
want to call rds_cong_map_updated() but not actually send
anything -- since loopback local and foreign congestion maps
point to the same spot, they're already in sync.

The old code never called sw loop's xmit_cong_map(),so
rds_cong_map_updated() wasn't being called for it. sw loop
ports would not work right with the congestion monitor.

Fixing that meant that hw loopback now would send congestion maps
to itself. This is also undesirable (racy), so we check for this
case in the ib-specific xmit code.

Finally decided I should fix this.  Its a straightforward inversion,
tipc_ref_acquire takes two locks in this order:
ref_table_lock
entry->lock

while tipc_deleteport takes them in this order:
entry->lock (via tipc_port_lock())
ref_table_lock (via tipc_ref_discard())

when the same entry is referenced, we get the above warning.  The fix is equally
straightforward.  Theres no real relation between the entry->lock and the
ref_table_lock (they just are needed at the same time), so move the entry->lock
aquisition in tipc_ref_acquire down, after we unlock ref_table_lock (this is
safe since the ref_table_lock guards changes to the reference table, and we've
already claimed a slot there.  I've tested the below fix and confirmed that it
clears up the lockdep issue

Michael Braun 7f7708f005 bridge: Fix br_forward crash in promiscuous mode
From: Michael Braun <michael-dev@fami-braun.de>

bridge: Fix br_forward crash in promiscuous mode

It's a linux-next kernel from 2010-03-12 on an x86 system and it
OOPs in the bridge module in br_pass_frame_up (called by
br_handle_frame_finish) because brdev cannot be dereferenced (its set to
a non-null value).

Adding some BUG_ON statements revealed that
 BR_INPUT_SKB_CB(skb)->brdev == br-dev
(as set in br_handle_frame_finish first)
only holds until br_forward is called.
The next call to br_pass_frame_up then fails.

Digging deeper it seems that br_forward either frees the skb or passes
it to NF_HOOK which will in turn take care of freeing the skb. The
same is holds for br_pass_frame_ip. So it seems as if two independent
skb allocations are required. As far as I can see, commit
b33084be19 ("bridge: Avoid unnecessary
clone on forward path") removed skb duplication and so likely causes
this crash. This crash does not happen on 2.6.33.

I've therefore modified br_forward the same way br_flood has been
modified so that the skb is not freed if skb0 is going to be used
and I can confirm that the attached patch resolves the issue for me.

dccp: fix panic caused by failed initialisation

This fixes a kernel panic reported thanks to Andre Noll:

if DCCP is compiled into the kernel and any out of the initialisation
steps in net/dccp/proto.c:dccp_init() fail, a subsequent attempt to create
a SOCK_DCCP socket will panic, since inet{,6}_create() are not prevented
from creating DCCP sockets.

This patch fixes the problem by propagating a failure in dccp_init() to
dccp_v{4,6}_init_net(), and from there to dccp_v{4,6}_init(), so that the
DCCP protocol is not made available if its initialisation fails.

Herbert Xu e2577a0658 ipv6: Send netlink notification when DAD fails
If we are managing IPv6 addresses using DHCP, it would be nice
for user-space to be notified if an address configured through
DHCP fails DAD.  Otherwise user-space would have to poll to see
whether DAD succeeds.

This patch uses the existing notification mechanism and simply
hooks it into the DAD failure code path.

David S. Miller 964ad81cbd ipconfig: Handle devices which take some time to come up.
Some network devices, particularly USB ones, take several seconds to
fully init and appear in the device list.

If the user turned ipconfig on, they are using it for NFS root or some
other early booting purpose.  So it makes no sense to just flat out
fail immediately if the device isn't found.

It also doesn't make sense to just jack up the initial wait to
something crazy like 10 seconds.

Instead, poll immediately, and then periodically once a second,
waiting for a usable device to appear.  Fail after 12 seconds.

Andres Salomon c2ef355bf3 mac80211: give warning if building w/out rate ctrl algorithm
I discovered that if EMBEDDED=y, one can accidentally build a mac80211 stack
and drivers w/ no rate control algorithm.  For drivers like RTL8187 that don't
supply their own RC algorithms, this will cause ieee80211_register_hw to
fail (making the driver unusable).

This will tell kconfig to provide a warning if no rate control algorithms
have been selected.  That'll at least warn the user; users that know that
their drivers supply a rate control algorithm can safely ignore the
warning, and those who don't know (or who expect to be using multiple
drivers) can select a default RC algorithm.

Helmut Schaa df13cce53a mac80211: Improve software scan timing
The current software scan implemenation in mac80211 returns to the operating
channel after each scanned channel. However, in some situations (e.g. no
traffic) it would be nicer to scan a few channels in a row to speed up
the scan itself.

Hence, after scanning a channel, check if we have queued up any tx frames and
return to the operating channel in that case.

Unfortunately we don't know if the AP has buffered any frames for us. Hence,
scan only as many channels in a row as the pm_qos latency and the negotiated
listen interval allows us to.

Neil Horman de58657146 tipc: filter out messages not intended for this host
Port commit 20deb48d16fdd07ce2fdc8d03ea317362217e085
from git://tipc.cslab.ericsson.net/pub/git/people/allan/tipc.git

Part of the large effort I'm trying to help with getting all the downstreamed
code from windriver forward ported to the upstream tree

Origional commit message
Restore check to filter out inadverdently received messages
This patch reimplements a check that allows TIPC to discard messages
that are not intended for it.  This check was present in TIPC 1.5/1.6,
but was removed by accident during the development of TIPC 1.7; it has
now been updated to account for new features present in TIPC 1.7 and
reinserted into TIPC.  The main benefit of this check is to filter
out messages arriving from orphaned link endpoints, which can arise
when a node exits the network and then re-enters it with a different
TIPC network address (i.e. <Z.C.N> value).

Neil Horman d88dca79d3 tipc: fix endianness on tipc subscriber messages
Remove htohl implementation from tipc

I was working on forward porting the downstream commits for TIPC and ran accross this one:
http://tipc.cslab.ericsson.net/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=people/allan/tipc.git;a=commitdiff;h=894279b9437b63cbb02405ad5b8e033b51e4e31e

I was going to just take it, when I looked closer and noted what it was doing.
This is basically a routine to byte swap fields of data in sent/received packets
for tipc, dependent upon the receivers guessed endianness of the peer when a
connection is established.  Asside from just seeming silly to me, it appears to
violate the latest RFC draft for tipc:
http://tipc.sourceforge.net/doc/draft-spec-tipc-02.txt
Which, according to section 4.2 and 4.3.3, requires that all fields of all
commands be sent in network byte order.  So instead of just taking this patch,
instead I'm removing the htohl function and replacing the calls with calls to
ntohl in the rx path and htonl in the send path.

As part of this fix, I'm also changing the subscr_cancel function, which
searches the list of subscribers, using a memcmp of the entire subscriber list,
for the entry to tear down.  unfortunately it memcmps the entire tipc_subscr
structure which has several bits that are private to the local side, so nothing
will ever match.  section 5.2 of the draft spec indicates the <type,upper,lower>
tuple should uniquely identify a subscriber, so convert subscr_cancel to just
match on those fields (properly endian swapped).

I've tested this using the tipc test suite, and its passed without issue.

Eric Dumazet 9837638727 net: fix route cache rebuilds
We added an automatic route cache rebuilding in commit 1080d709fb
but had to correct few bugs. One of the assumption of original patch,
was that entries where kept sorted in a given way.

This assumption is known to be wrong (commit 1ddbcb005c gave an
explanation of this and corrected a leak) and expensive to respect.

Paweł Staszewski reported to me one of his machine got its routing cache
disabled after few messages like :

[ 2677.850065] Route hash chain too long!
[ 2677.850080] Adjust your secret_interval!
[82839.662993] Route hash chain too long!
[82839.662996] Adjust your secret_interval!
[155843.731650] Route hash chain too long!
[155843.731664] Adjust your secret_interval!
[155843.811881] Route hash chain too long!
[155843.811891] Adjust your secret_interval!
[155843.858209] vlan0811: 5 rebuilds is over limit, route caching
disabled
[155843.858212] Route hash chain too long!
[155843.858213] Adjust your secret_interval!

This is because rt_intern_hash() might be fooled when computing a chain
length, because multiple entries with same keys can differ because of
TOS (or mark/oif) bits.

In the rare case the fast algorithm see a too long chain, and before
taking expensive path, we call a helper function in order to not count
duplicates of same routes, that only differ with tos/mark/oif bits. This
helper works with data already in cpu cache and is not be very
expensive, despite its O(N^2) implementation.

Paweł Staszewski sucessfully tested this patch on his loaded router.

Constify struct sysfs_ops.

This is part of the ops structure constification
effort started by Arjan van de Ven et al.

Benefits of this constification:

 * prevents modification of data that is shared
   (referenced) by many other structure instances
   at runtime

 * detects/prevents accidental (but not intentional)
   modification attempts on archs that enforce
   read-only kernel data at runtime

 * potentially better optimized code as the compiler
   can assume that the const data cannot be changed

 * the compiler/linker move const data into .rodata
   and therefore exclude them from false sharing

Thanks to Paul McKenny for pointing out that it is incorrect to use
synchronize_rcu_bh to ensure that pending callbacks have completed.
Instead we should use rcu_barrier_bh.

The macro any_online_node() is prone to producing sparse warnings due to
the local symbol 'node'.  Since all the in-tree users are really
requesting the first online node (the mask argument is either
NODE_MASK_ALL or node_online_map) just use the first_online_node macro and
remove the any_online_node macro since there are no users.

Debatable -- the current comment is located at the callsite of
ops->get_sset_count(), which is where an implementor might think to add
a new call.  Not all the numeric fields in ethtool_drvinfo are obtained
from ->get_sset_count().

Hence the "some" in the attached patch to include/linux/ethtool.h,
addressing your comment.

Zhu Yi 8eae939f14 net: add limit for socket backlog
We got system OOM while running some UDP netperf testing on the loopback
device. The case is multiple senders sent stream UDP packets to a single
receiver via loopback on local host. Of course, the receiver is not able
to handle all the packets in time. But we surprisingly found that these
packets were not discarded due to the receiver's sk->sk_rcvbuf limit.
Instead, they are kept queuing to sk->sk_backlog and finally ate up all
the memory. We believe this is a secure hole that a none privileged user
can crash the system.

The root cause for this problem is, when the receiver is doing
__release_sock() (i.e. after userspace recv, kernel udp_recvmsg ->
skb_free_datagram_locked -> release_sock), it moves skbs from backlog to
sk_receive_queue with the softirq enabled. In the above case, multiple
busy senders will almost make it an endless loop. The skbs in the
backlog end up eat all the system memory.

The issue is not only for UDP. Any protocols using socket backlog is
potentially affected. The patch adds limit for socket backlog so that
the backlog size cannot be expanded endlessly.

What happens is that, when the tipc module in inserted it enters a standalone
node mode in which communication to its own address is allowed <0.0.0> but not
to other addresses, since the appropriate data structures have not been
allocated yet (specifically the tipc_net pointer).  There is nothing stopping a
client from trying to send such a message however, and if that happens, we
attempt to dereference tipc_net.zones while the pointer is still NULL, and
explode.  The fix is pretty straightforward.  Since these oopses all arise from
the dereference of global pointers prior to their assignment to allocated
values, and since these allocations are small (about 2k total), lets convert
these pointers to static arrays of the appropriate size.  All the accesses to
these bits consider 0/NULL to be a non match when searching, so all the lookups
still work properly, and there is no longer a chance of a bad dererence
anywhere.  As a bonus, this lets us eliminate the setup/teardown routines for
those pointers, and elimnates the need to preform any locking around them to
prevent access while their being allocated/freed.

I've updated the tipc_net structure to behave this way to fix the exact reported
problem, and also fixed up the tipc_bearers and media_list arrays to fix an
obvious simmilar problem that arises from issuing tipc-config commands to
manipulate bearers/links prior to entering networked mode

I've tested this for a few hours by running the sanity tests and stress test
with the tipcutils suite, and nothing has fallen over.  There have been a few
lockdep warnings, but those were there before, and can be addressed later, as
they didn't actually result in any deadlock.

Timo Teräs 6d55cb91a0 gre: fix hard header destination address checking
ipgre_header() can be called with zero daddr when the gre device is
configured as multipoint tunnel and still has the NOARP flag set (which is
typically cleared by the userspace arp daemon).  If the NOARP packets are
not dropped, ipgre_tunnel_xmit() will take rt->rt_gateway (= NBMA IP) and
use that for route look up (and may lead to bogus xfrm acquires).

The multicast address check is removed as sending to multicast group should
be ok.  In fact, if gre device has a multicast address as destination
ipgre_header is always called with multicast address.

stephen hemminger 8f37ada5b5 IPv6: fix race between cleanup and add/delete address
This solves a potential race problem during the cleanup process.
The issue is that addrconf_ifdown() needs to traverse address list,
but then drop lock to call the notifier. The version in -next
could get confused if add/delete happened during this window.
Original code (2.6.32 and earlier) was okay because all addresses
were always deleted.

stephen hemminger 84e8b803f1 IPv6: addrconf notify when address is unavailable
My recent change in net-next to retain permanent addresses caused regression.
Device refcount would not go to zero when device was unregistered because
left over anycast reference would hold ipv6 dev reference which would hold
device references...

The correct procedure is to call notify chain when address is no longer
available for use.  When interface comes back DAD timer will notify
back that address is available.

Also, link local addresses should be purged when interface is brought
down. The address might be changed.

Sujith 4fa0043731 mac80211: Fix HT rate control configuration
Handling HT configuration changes involved setting the channel
with the new HT parameters and then issuing a rate_update()
notification to the driver.

This behavior changed after the off-channel changes. Now, the channel
is not updated with the new HT params in enable_ht() - instead, it
is now done when the scan work terminates. This results in the driver
depending on stale information, defaulting to non-HT mode always.

Fix this by passing the new channel type to the driver.

Jouni Malinen 9c87ba6734 mac80211: Fix reassociation processing (within ESS roaming)
Commit e1dd33f60ced091114e4aacf141e0d03b88d3e13 changed cfg80211 to
allow association commands while in associated state to enable support
for roaming within an ESS. However, this was not enough to resolve all
cases with mac80211 which needs some additional handling of the
reassociation case to clear internal state with the BSS that was in use
previously.

This patch makes ieee80211_mgd_assoc() accept a valid reassociation
command and clean the association state with the previous BSS. This
fixes roaming between BSSes in an ESS when using wpa_supplicant with
-Dnl80211.

Neil Brown 301e99ce4a nfsd: ensure sockets are closed on error
One the changes in commit d7979ae4a "svc: Move close processing to a
single place" is:

  err_delete:
-       svc_delete_socket(svsk);
+       set_bit(SK_CLOSE, &svsk->sk_flags);
        return -EAGAIN;

This is insufficient. The recvfrom methods must always call
svc_xprt_received on completion so that the socket gets re-queued if
there is any more work to do.  This particular path did not make that
call because it actually destroyed the svsk, making requeue pointless.
When the svc_delete_socket was change to just set a bit, we should have
added a call to svc_xprt_received,

This is the problem that b0401d7253 attempted to fix, incorrectly.

Herbert Xu eb1d164143 bridge: Add core IGMP snooping support
This patch adds the core functionality of IGMP snooping support
without actually hooking it up.  So this patch should be a no-op
as far as the bridge's external behaviour is concerned.

All the new code and data is controlled by the Kconfig option
BRIDGE_IGMP_SNOOPING.  A run-time toggle is also available.

The multicast switching is done using an hash table that is
lockless on the read-side through RCU.  On the write-side the
new multicast_lock is used for all operations.  The hash table
supports dynamic growth/rehashing.

The hash table will be rehashed if any chain length exceeds a
preset limit.  If rehashing does not reduce the maximum chain
length then snooping will be disabled.

These features may be added in future (in no particular order):

* IGMPv3 source support
* Non-querier router detection
* IPv6

Marcel Holtmann 943da25d95 Bluetooth: Add controller types for BR/EDR and 802.11 AMP
With the Bluetooth 3.0 specification and the introduction of alternate
MAC/PHY (AMP) support, it is required to differentiate between primary
BR/EDR controllers and 802.11 AMP controllers. So introduce a special
type inside HCI device for differentiation.

For now all AMP controllers will be treated as raw devices until an
AMP manager has been implemented.

Patrick McHardy 3729d50212 rtnetlink: support specifying device flags on device creation
commit e8469ed959c373c2ff9e6f488aa5a14971aebe1f
Author: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net>
Date:   Tue Feb 23 20:41:30 2010 +0100

Support specifying the initial device flags when creating a device though
rtnl_link. Devices allocated by rtnl_create_link() are marked as INITIALIZING
in order to surpress netlink registration notifications. To complete setup,
rtnl_configure_link() must be called, which performs the device flag changes
and invokes the deferred notifiers if everything went well.

Two examples:

# add macvlan to eth0
#
$ ip link add link eth0 up allmulticast on type macvlan

[LINK]11: macvlan0@eth0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,ALLMULTI,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN

Patrick McHardy bd38081160 dev: support deferring device flag change notifications
Split dev_change_flags() into two functions: __dev_change_flags() to
perform the actual changes and __dev_notify_flags() to invoke netdevice
notifiers. This will be used by rtnl_link to defer netlink notifications
until the device has been fully configured.

This changes ordering of some operations, in particular:

- netlink notifications are sent after all changes have been performed.
  As a side effect this surpresses one unnecessary netlink message when
  the IFF_UP and other flags are changed simultaneously.

- The NETDEV_UP/NETDEV_DOWN and NETDEV_CHANGE notifiers are invoked
  after all changes have been performed. Their relative is unchanged.

- net_dmaengine_put() is invoked before the NETDEV_DOWN notifier instead
  of afterwards. This should not make any difference since both RX and TX
  are already shut down at this point.

Patrick McHardy a2835763e1 rtnetlink: handle rtnl_link netlink notifications manually
In order to support specifying device flags during device creation,
we must be able to roll back device registration in case setting the
flags fails without sending any notifications related to the device
to userspace.

This patch changes rollback_registered_many() and register_netdevice()
to manually send netlink notifications for devices not handled by
rtnl_link and allows to defer notifications for devices handled by
rtnl_link until setup is complete.

Neil Brown ab1b18f70a sunrpc: remove unnecessary svc_xprt_put
The 'struct svc_deferred_req's on the xpt_deferred queue do not
own a reference to the owning xprt.  This is seen in svc_revisit
which is where things are added to this queue.  dr->xprt is set to
NULL and the reference to the xprt it put.

So when this list is cleaned up in svc_delete_xprt, we mustn't
put the reference.

Also, replace the 'for' with a 'while' which is arguably
simpler and more likely to compile efficiently.

Helmut Schaa b446918b77 mac80211: use listen interval 5 as default
Currently if a driver does not set hw.max_listen_interval a listen
interval of 1 is negotiated with the AP. Thus, the AP could drop
buffered frames for us after just one beacon interval which can
easily happen with the current powersave and scan implementation.
To avoid this issue increase the default interval to 5 which should
be a reasonable safe default.

Clients will set their MTU to 1280 if they receive a
ICMPV6_PKT_TOOBIG message with an MTU less than 1280.

To allow encapsulating of packets over a 1280 link
we should always accept packets with a size of 1280
for forwarding even if the path has a lower MTU and
fragment the encapsulated packets afterwards.

In case a forwarded packet is not going to be encapsulated
a ICMPV6_PKT_TOOBIG msg will still be send by ip6_fragment()
with the correct MTU.

Ajit Khaparde c4d49794ff net: bug fix for vlan + gro issue
Traffic (tcp) doesnot start on a vlan interface when gro is enabled.
Even the tcp handshake was not taking place.
This is because, the eth_type_trans call before the netif_receive_skb
in napi_gro_finish() resets the skb->dev to napi->dev from the previously
set vlan netdev interface. This causes the ip_route_input to drop the
incoming packet considering it as a packet coming from a martian source.

I could repro this on 2.6.32.7 (stable) and 2.6.33-rc7.
With this fix, the traffic starts and the test runs fine on both vlan
and non-vlan interfaces.

Eric W. Biederman 88af182e38 net: Fix sysctl restarts...
Yuck.  It turns out that when we restart sysctls we were restarting
with the values already changed.  Which unfortunately meant that
the second time through we thought there was no change and skipped
all kinds of work, despite the fact that there was indeed a change.

I have fixed this the simplest way possible by restoring the changed
values when we restart the sysctl write.

One of my coworkers spotted this bug when after disabling forwarding
on an interface pings were still forwarded.

Jamal Hadi Salim 8be987d734 pfkey: fix SA and SP flush sequence
RFC 2367 says flushing behavior should be:
1) user space -> kernel: flush
2) kernel: flush
3) kernel -> user space: flush event to ALL listeners

This is not realistic today in the presence of selinux policies
which may reject the flush etc. So we make the sequence become:
1) user space -> kernel: flush
2) kernel: flush
3) kernel -> user space: flush response to originater from #1
4) if there were no errors then:
kernel -> user space: flush event to ALL listeners

Kalle Valo ffb9eb3d8b nl80211: add power save commands
The most needed command from nl80211, which Wireless Extensions had,
is support for power save mode. Add a simple command to make it possible
to enable and disable power save via nl80211.

I was also planning about extending the interface, for example adding the
timeout value, but after thinking more about this I decided not to do it.
Basically there were three reasons:

Firstly, the parameters for power save are very much hardware dependent.
Trying to find a unified interface which would work with all hardware, and
still make sense to users, will be very difficult.

Secondly, IEEE 802.11 power save implementation in Linux is still in state
of flux. We have a long way to still to go and there is no way to predict
what kind of implementation we will have after few years. And because we
need to support nl80211 interface a long time, practically forever, adding
now parameters to nl80211 might create maintenance problems later on.

Third issue are the users. Power save parameters are mostly used for
debugging, so debugfs is better, more flexible, interface for this.
For example, wpa_supplicant currently doesn't configure anything related
to power save mode. It's better to strive that kernel can automatically
optimise the power save parameters, like with help of pm qos network
and other traffic parameters.

Later on, when we have better understanding of power save, we can extend
this command with more features, if there's a need for that.

Patrick McHardy 9e2dcf7202 netfilter: nf_conntrack_reasm: properly handle packets fragmented into a single fragment
When an ICMPV6_PKT_TOOBIG message is received with a MTU below 1280,
all further packets include a fragment header.

Unlike regular defragmentation, conntrack also needs to "reassemble"
those fragments in order to obtain a packet without the fragment
header for connection tracking. Currently nf_conntrack_reasm checks
whether a fragment has either IP6_MF set or an offset != 0, which
makes it ignore those fragments.

Remove the invalid check and make reassembly handle fragment queues
containing only a single fragment.

Pablo Neira Ayuso a88e22adf5 netfilter: ctnetlink: fix creation of conntrack with helpers
This patch fixes a bug that triggers an assertion if you create
a conntrack entry with a helper and netfilter debugging is enabled.
Basically, we hit the assertion because the confirmation flag is
set before the conntrack extensions are added. To fix this, we
move the extension addition before the aforementioned flag is
set.

This patch also removes the possibility of setting a helper for
existing conntracks. This operation would also trigger the
assertion since we are not allowed to add new extensions for
existing conntracks. We know noone that could benefit from
this operation sanely.

Thanks to Eric Dumazet for initial posting a preliminary patch
to address this issue.
