David S. Miller 64a146513f [NET]: Revert incorrect accept queue backlog changes.
This reverts two changes:

8488df894d
248f06726e

A backlog value of N really does mean allow "N + 1" connections
to queue to a listening socket.  This allows one to specify
"0" as the backlog and still get 1 connection.

Noticed by Gerrit Renker and Rick Jones.

Patrick McHardy ec68e97ded [NETFILTER]: conntrack: fix {nf,ip}_ct_iterate_cleanup endless loops
Fix {nf,ip}_ct_iterate_cleanup unconfirmed list handling:

- unconfirmed entries can not be killed manually, they are removed on
  confirmation or final destruction of the conntrack entry, which means
  we might iterate forever without making forward progress.

  This can happen in combination with the conntrack event cache, which
  holds a reference to the conntrack entry, which is only released when
  the packet makes it all the way through the stack or a different
  packet is handled.

- taking references to an unconfirmed entry and using it outside the
  locked section doesn't work, the list entries are not refcounted and
  another CPU might already be waiting to destroy the entry

What the code really wants to do is make sure the references of the hash
table to the selected conntrack entries are released, so they will be
destroyed once all references from skbs and the event cache are dropped.

Since unconfirmed entries haven't even entered the hash yet, simply mark
them as dying and skip confirmation based on that.

Wei Dong 8488df894d [NET]: Fix bugs in "Whether sock accept queue is full" checking
when I use linux TCP socket, and find there is a bug in function
sk_acceptq_is_full().

	When a new SYN comes, TCP module first checks its validation. If valid,
send SYN,ACK to the client and add the sock to the syn hash table. Next
time if received the valid ACK for SYN,ACK from the client. server will
accept this connection and increase the sk->sk_ack_backlog -- which is
done in function tcp_check_req().We check wether acceptq is full in
function tcp_v4_syn_recv_sock().

Consider an example:

 After listen(sockfd, 1) system call, sk->sk_max_ack_backlog is set to
1. As we know, sk->sk_ack_backlog is initialized to 0. Assuming accept()
system call is not invoked now.

1. 1st connection comes. invoke sk_acceptq_is_full(). sk-
>sk_ack_backlog=0 sk->sk_max_ack_backlog=1, function return 0 accept
this connection. Increase the sk->sk_ack_backlog
2. 2nd connection comes. invoke sk_acceptq_is_full(). sk-
>sk_ack_backlog=1 sk->sk_max_ack_backlog=1, function return 0 accept
this connection. Increase the sk->sk_ack_backlog
3. 3rd connection comes. invoke sk_acceptq_is_full(). sk-
>sk_ack_backlog=2 sk->sk_max_ack_backlog=1, function return 1. Refuse
this connection.

I think it has bugs. after listen system call. sk->sk_max_ack_backlog=1
but now it can accept 2 connections.

Patrick McHardy 4498121ca3 [NET]: Handle disabled preemption in gfp_any()
ctnetlink uses netlink_unicast from an atomic_notifier_chain
(which is called within a RCU read side critical section)
without holding further locks. netlink_unicast calls netlink_trim
with the result of gfp_any() for the gfp flags, which are passed
down to pskb_expand_header. gfp_any() only checks for softirq
context and returns GFP_KERNEL, resulting in this warning:

BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at mm/slab.c:3032
in_atomic():1, irqs_disabled():0

Eric Dumazet dbca9b2750 [NET]: change layout of ehash table
ehash table layout is currently this one :

First half of this table is used by sockets not in TIME_WAIT state
Second half of it is used by sockets in TIME_WAIT state.

This is non optimal because of for a given hash or socket, the two chain heads 
are located in separate cache lines.
Moreover the locks of the second half are never used.

If instead of this halving, we use two list heads in inet_ehash_bucket instead 
of only one, we probably can avoid one cache miss, and reduce ram usage, 
particularly if sizeof(rwlock_t) is big (various CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK, 
CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC settings). So we still halves the table but we keep 
together related chains to speedup lookups and socket state change.

In this patch I did not try to align struct inet_ehash_bucket, but a future 
patch could try to make this structure have a convenient size (a power of two 
or a multiple of L1_CACHE_SIZE).
I guess rwlock will just vanish as soon as RCU is plugged into ehash :) , so 
maybe we dont need to scratch our heads to align the bucket...

Note : In case struct inet_ehash_bucket is not a power of two, we could 
probably change alloc_large_system_hash() (in case it use __get_free_pages()) 
to free the unused space. It currently allocates a big zone, but the last 
quarter of it could be freed. Again, this should be a temporary 'problem'.

Patch tested on ipv4 tcp only, but should be OK for IPV6 and DCCP.

Gerrit Renker 9a036b9c33 [TCP]: Fix ambiguity in the `before' relation.
While looking at DCCP sequence numbers, I stumbled over a problem with
the following definition of before in tcp.h:

static inline int before(__u32 seq1, __u32 seq2)
{
        return (__s32)(seq1-seq2) < 0;
}

Problem: This definition suffers from an an ambiguity, i.e. always

           before(a, (a + 2^31) % 2^32)) = 1
           before((a + 2^31) % 2^32), a) = 1

         In text: when the difference between a and b amounts to 2^31,
         a is always considered `before' b, the function can not decide.
         The reason is that implicitly 0 is `before' 1 ... 2^31-1 ... 2^31

Solution: There is a simple fix, by defining before in such a way that
          0 is no longer `before' 2^31, i.e. 0 `before' 1 ... 2^31-1
          By not using the middle between 0 and 2^32, before can be made
          unambiguous.
          This is achieved by testing whether seq2-seq1 > 0 (using signed
          32-bit arithmetic).

I attach a patch to codify this. Also the `after' relation is basically
a redefinition of `before', it is now defined as a macro after before.

Ralf Baechle a3d384029a [AX.25]: Fix unchecked rose_add_loopback_neigh uses
rose_add_loopback_neigh uses kmalloc and the callers were ignoring the
error value.  Rewrite to let the caller deal with the allocation.  This
allows the use of static allocation of kmalloc use entirely.

Ralf Baechle 8d5cf596d1 [AX.25]: Fix unchecked ax25_protocol_register uses.
Replace ax25_protocol_register by ax25_register_pid which assumes the
caller has done the memory allocation.  This allows replacing the
kmalloc allocations entirely by static allocations.

Ralf Baechle c9266b99e2 [AX.25]: Mark all kmalloc users __must_check
The recent fix 0506d4068b made obvious that
error values were not being propagated through the AX.25 stack.  To help
with that this patch marks all kmalloc users in the AX.25, NETROM and
ROSE stacks as __must_check.

Sridhar Samudrala 29c7cf9618 [SCTP]: Handle address add/delete events in a more efficient way.
Currently in SCTP, we maintain a local address list by rebuilding the whole
list from the device list whenever we get a address add/delete event.

This patch fixes it by only adding/deleting the address for which we
receive the event.

Also removed the sctp_local_addr_lock() which is no longer needed as we
now use list_for_each_safe() to traverse this list. This fixes the bugs
in sctp_copy_laddrs_xxx() routines where we do copy_to_user() while
holding this lock.
