27141666b6 atm: [br2684] Fix oops due to skb->dev being NULL
It happens that if a packet arrives in a VC between the call to open it on
the hardware and the call to change the backend to br2684, br2684_regvcc
processes the packet and oopses dereferencing skb->dev because it is
NULL before the call to br2684_push().

68be802cd5 raw: Restore /proc/net/raw correct behavior
I just noticed "cat /proc/net/raw" was buggy, missing '\n' separators.

I believe this was introduced by commit 8cd850efa4 
([RAW]: Cleanup IPv4 raw_seq_show.)

This trivial patch restores correct behavior, and applies to current 
Linus tree (should also be applied to stable tree as well.)

6de329e26c net: Fix test for VLAN TX checksum offload capability
Selected device feature bits can be propagated to VLAN devices, so we
can make use of TX checksum offload and TSO on VLAN-tagged packets.
However, if the physical device does not do VLAN tag insertion or
generic checksum offload then the test for TX checksum offload in
dev_queue_xmit() will see a protocol of htons(ETH_P_8021Q) and yield
false.

This splits the checksum offload test into two functions:

- can_checksum_protocol() tests a given protocol against a feature bitmask

- dev_can_checksum() first tests the skb protocol against the device
  features; if that fails and the protocol is htons(ETH_P_8021Q) then
  it tests the encapsulated protocol against the effective device
  features for VLANs

319fa2a24f sctp: Correclty set changeover_active for SFR-CACC
Right now, any time we set a primary transport we set
the changeover_active flag.  As a result, we invoke SFR-CACC
even when there has been no changeover events.

Only set changeover_active, when there is a true changeover
event, i.e. we had a primary path and we are changing to

Therefore this reverts e4c7884028

ec0a196626 tcp: Revert 'process defer accept as established' changes.
This reverts two changesets, ec3c0982a2
("[TCP]: TCP_DEFER_ACCEPT updates - process as established") and
the follow-on bug fix 9ae27e0adb
("tcp: Fix slab corruption with ipv6 and tcp6fuzz").

This change causes several problems, first reported by Ingo Molnar
as a distcc-over-loopback regression where connections were getting
stuck.

Ilpo Järvinen first spotted the locking problems.  The new function
added by this code, tcp_defer_accept_check(), only has the
child socket locked, yet it is modifying state of the parent
listening socket.

Fixing that is non-trivial at best, because we can't simply just grab
the parent listening socket lock at this point, because it would
create an ABBA deadlock.  The normal ordering is parent listening
socket --> child socket, but this code path would require the
reverse lock ordering.

Next is a problem noticed by Vitaliy Gusev, he noted:

----------------------------------------
>--- a/net/ipv4/tcp_timer.c
>+++ b/net/ipv4/tcp_timer.c
>@@ -481,6 +481,11 @@ static void tcp_keepalive_timer (unsigned long data)
> 		goto death;
> 	}
>
>+	if (tp->defer_tcp_accept.request && sk->sk_state == TCP_ESTABLISHED) {
>+		tcp_send_active_reset(sk, GFP_ATOMIC);
>+		goto death;

Here socket sk is not attached to listening socket's request queue. tcp_done()
will not call inet_csk_destroy_sock() (and tcp_v4_destroy_sock() which should
release this sk) as socket is not DEAD. Therefore socket sk will be lost for
freeing.
----------------------------------------

Finally, Alexey Kuznetsov argues that there might not even be any
real value or advantage to these new semantics even if we fix all
of the bugs:

----------------------------------------
Hiding from accept() sockets with only out-of-order data only
is the only thing which is impossible with old approach. Is this really
so valuable? My opinion: no, this is nothing but a new loophole
to consume memory without control.
----------------------------------------

So revert this thing for now.

f23d60de71 ipv6: Fix duplicate initialization of rawv6_prot.destroy
In changeset 22dd485022
("raw: Raw socket leak.") code was added so that we
flush pending frames on raw sockets to avoid leaks.

The ipv4 part was fine, but the ipv6 part was not
done correctly.  Unlike the ipv4 side, the ipv6 code
already has a .destroy method for rawv6_prot.

So now there were two assignments to this member, and
what the compiler does is use the last one, effectively
making the ipv6 parts of that changeset a NOP.

Fix this by removing the:

	.destroy	   = inet6_destroy_sock,

line, and adding an inet6_destroy_sock() call to the
end of raw6_destroy().

Noticed by Al Viro.

1e8a287c79 dccp ccid-3: TFRC reverse-lookup Bug-Fix
This fixes a bug in the reverse lookup of p: given a value f(p), instead of p,
the function returned the smallest tabulated value f(p).

The smallest tabulated value of
	 
   10^6 * f(p) =  sqrt(2*p/3) + 12 * sqrt(3*p/8) * (32 * p^3 + p) 

for p=0.0001 is 8172. 

Since this value is scaled by 10^6, the outcome of this bug is that a loss
of 8172/10^6 = 0.8172% was reported whenever the input was below the table
resolution of 0.01%.

This means that the value was over 80 times too high, resulting in large spikes
of the initial loss interval, thus unnecessarily reducing the throughput.

Also corrected the printk format (%u for u32).

65907a433a dccp ccid-2: Bug-Fix - Ack Vectors need to be ignored on request sockets
This fixes an oversight from an earlier patch, ensuring that Ack Vectors
are not processed on request sockets.

The issue is that Ack Vectors must not be parsed on request sockets, since
the Ack Vector feature depends on the selection of the (TX) CCID. During the
initial handshake the CCIDs are undefined, and so RFC 4340, 10.3 applies:

 "Using CCID-specific options and feature options during a negotiation
  for the corresponding CCID feature is NOT RECOMMENDED [...]"

And it is not even possible: when the server receives the Request from the 
client, the CCID and Ack vector features are undefined; when the Ack finalising
the 3-way hanshake arrives, the request socket has not been cloned yet into a
full socket. (This order is necessary, since otherwise the newly created socket
would have to be destroyed whenever an option error occurred - a malicious
hacker could simply send garbage options and exploit this.)

3294f202dc dccp ccid-3: Bug-Fix - Zero RTT is possible
In commit $(825de27d9e) (from 27th May, commit
message `dccp ccid-3: Fix "t_ipi explosion" bug'), the CCID-3 window counter
computation was fixed to cope with RTTs < 4 microseconds.

Such RTTs can be found e.g. when running CCID-3 over loopback. The fix removed
a check against RTT < 4, but introduced a divide-by-zero bug.

All steady-state RTTs in DCCP are filtered using dccp_sample_rtt(), which
ensures non-zero samples. However, a zero RTT is possible on initialisation,
when there is no RTT sample from the Request/Response exchange.

The fix is to use the fallback-RTT from RFC 4340, 3.4.

This is also better than just fixing update_win_count() since it allows other
parts of the code to always assume that the RTT is non-zero during the time

709772e6e0 net: Fix routing tables with id > 255 for legacy software
Most legacy software do not like tables > 255 as rtm_table is u8
so tb_id is sent &0xff and it is possible to mismatch for example
table 510 with table 254 (main).

This patch introduces RT_TABLE_COMPAT=252 so the code uses it if
tb_id > 255. It makes such old applications happy, new
ones are still able to use RTA_TABLE to get a proper table id.

99c6f60e72 ipsec: pfkey should ignore events when no listeners
When pfkey has no km listeners, it still does a lot of work
before finding out there aint nobody out there.
If a tree falls in a forest and no one is around to hear it, does it make
a sound? In this case it makes a lot of noise:
With this short-circuit adding 10s of thousands of SAs using

Wei Yongjun noticed that we may call reqsk_free on request sock objects where
the opt fields may not be initialized, fix it by introducing inet_reqsk_alloc
where we initialize ->opt to NULL and set ->pktopts to NULL in

The bindv6only is tuned via sysctl. It is already on a struct net

Despite this the value configured in the init net is used for the

Sufficient scans (at least 2 or 3) should have been done within 7
seconds to find an existing IBSS to join.  This should improve IBSS
creation latency; and since IBSS merging is still in effect, shouldn't

ddb2c43594 asn1: additional sanity checking during BER decoding
- Don't trust a length which is greater than the working buffer.
  An invalid length could cause overflow when calculating buffer size
  for decoding oid.

- An oid length of zero is invalid and allows for an off-by-one error when
  decoding oid because the first subid actually encodes first 2 subids.

- A primitive encoding may not have an indefinite length.

Thanks to Wei Wang from McAfee for report.

293ad60401 tcp: Fix for race due to temporary drop of the socket lock in skb_splice_bits.
skb_splice_bits temporary drops the socket lock while iterating over
the socket queue in order to break a reverse locking condition which
happens with sendfile. This, however, opens a window of opportunity
for tcp_collapse() to aggregate skbs and thus potentially free the
current skb used in skb_splice_bits and tcp_read_sock.

This patch fixes the problem by (re-)getting the same "logical skb"
after the lock has been temporary dropped.

Based on idea and initial patch from Evgeniy Polyakov.

22dd485022 raw: Raw socket leak.
The program below just leaks the raw kernel socket

int main() {
        int fd = socket(PF_INET, SOCK_RAW, IPPROTO_UDP);
        struct sockaddr_in addr;

        memset(&addr, 0, sizeof(addr));
        inet_aton("127.0.0.1", &addr.sin_addr);
        addr.sin_family = AF_INET;
        addr.sin_port = htons(2048);
        sendto(fd,  "a", 1, MSG_MORE, &addr, sizeof(addr));
        return 0;
}

Corked packet is allocated via sock_wmalloc which holds the owner socket,
so one should uncork it and flush all pending data on close. Do this in the
same way as in UDP.

was never set.  This patch brings back the markings for IPv6 traffic.

When fast retransmit is triggered by a sack, we should flush the queue
only once so that only 1 retransmit happens.  Also, since we could
potentially have non-fast-rtx chunks on the retransmit queue, we need
make sure any chunks eligable for fast retransmit are sent first
during fast retransmission.
