The option name of Delayed SACK Timer should be SCTP_DELAYED_SACK, not SCTP_DELAYED_ACK. Left SCTP_DELAYED_ACK be concomitant with SCTP_DELAYED_SACK, for making compatibility with existing applications. Reference: 8.1.19.

2011-01-18ipv6: Silence privacy extensions initializationRomain Francoise
When a network namespace is created (via CLONE_NEWNET), the loopback interface is automatically added to the new namespace, triggering a printk in ipv6_add_dev() if CONFIG_IPV6_PRIVACY is set. This is problematic for applications which use CLONE_NEWNET as part of a sandbox, like Chromium's suid sandbox or recent versions of vsftpd. On a busy machine, it can lead to thousands of useless "lo: Disabled Privacy Extensions" messages appearing in dmesg. It's easy enough to check the status of privacy extensions via the use_tempaddr sysctl, so just removing the printk seems like the most sensible solution.

After recent changes, (percpu stats on vlan/tunnels...), we dont need anymore per struct netdev_queue tx_bytes/tx_packets/tx_dropped counters. Only remaining users are ixgbe, sch_teql, gianfar & macvlan : 1) ixgbe can be converted to use existing tx_ring counters. 2) macvlan incremented txq->tx_dropped, it can use the dev->stats.tx_dropped counter. 3) sch_teql : almost revert ab35cd4b8f42 (Use net_device internal stats) Now we have ndo_get_stats64(), use it, even for "unsigned long" fields (No need to bring back a struct net_device_stats) 4) gianfar adds a stats structure per tx queue to hold tx_bytes/tx_packets This removes a lockdep warning (and possible lockup) in rndis gadget, calling dev_get_stats() from hard IRQ context.

2011-01-13batman-adv: Even Batman should not dereference NULL pointersJesper Juhl
There's a problem in net/batman-adv/unicast.c::frag_send_skb(). dev_alloc_skb() allocates memory and may fail, thus returning NULL. If this happens we'll pass a NULL pointer on to skb_split() which in turn hands it to skb_split_inside_header() from where it gets passed to skb_put() that lets skb_tail_pointer() play with it and that function dereferences it. And thus the bat dies. While I was at it I also moved the call to dev_alloc_skb() above the assignment to 'unicast_packet' since there's no reason to do that assignment if the memory allocation fails.

Since the introduction of the fixes for the reorder timer, mac80211 will cause lockdep warnings because lockdep confuses local->skb_queue and local->rx_skb_queue and treats their lock as the same. However, their locks are different, and are valid in different contexts (the former is used in IRQ context, the latter in BH only) and the only thing to be done is mark the former as a different lock class so that lockdep can tell the difference.

This patch fixes a loop in ctnetlink_get_conntrack() that can be triggered if you use the same socket to receive events and to perform a GET operation. Under heavy load, netlink_unicast() may return -EAGAIN, this error code is reserved in nfnetlink for the module load-on-demand.

2011-01-12net/ceph: make ceph_msgr_wq non-reentrantTejun Heo
ceph messenger code does a rather complex dancing around multithread workqueue to make sure the same work item isn't executed concurrently on different CPUs. This restriction can be provided by workqueue with WQ_NON_REENTRANT. Make ceph_msgr_wq non-reentrant workqueue with the default concurrency level and remove the QUEUED/BUSY logic. * This removes backoff handling in con_work() but it couldn't reliably block execution of con_work() to begin with - queue_con() can be called after the work started but before BUSY is set. It seems that it was an optimization for a rather cold path and can be safely removed. * The number of concurrent work items is bound by the number of connections and connetions are independent from each other. With the default concurrency level, different connections will be executed independently.

2011-01-11netfilter: fix race in conntrack between dump_table and destroyStephen Hemminger
The netlink interface to dump the connection tracking table has a race when entries are deleted at the same time. A customer reported a crash and the backtrace showed thatctnetlink_dump_table was running while a conntrack entry was being destroyed. (see https://bugzilla.vyatta.com/show_bug.cgi?id=6402). According to RCU documentation, when using hlist_nulls the reader must handle the case of seeing a deleted entry and not proceed further down the linked list. The old code would continue which caused the scan to walk into the free list. This patch uses locking (rather than RCU) for this operation which is guaranteed safe, and no longer requires getting reference while doing dump operation.

2011-01-11rpc: keep backchannel xprt as long as server connectionJ. Bruce Fields
Multiple backchannels can share the same tcp connection; from rfc 5661 section 2.10.3.1: A connection's association with a session is not exclusive. A connection associated with the channel(s) of one session may be simultaneously associated with the channel(s) of other sessions including sessions associated with other client IDs. However, multiple backchannels share a connection, they must all share the same xid stream (hence the same rpc_xprt); the only way we have to match replies with calls at the rpc layer is using the xid. So, keep the rpc_xprt around as long as the connection lasts, in case we're asked to use the connection as a backchannel again. Requests to create new backchannel clients over a given server connection should results in creating new clients that reuse the existing rpc_xprt. But to start, just reject attempts to associate multiple rpc_xprt's with the same underlying bc_xprt. Signed-off-by: J. Bruce Fields <bfields@redhat.com>

2011-01-11net/9p: Use proper data typesM. Mohan Kumar
Use proper data types for storing the count of the binary blob and length of a string. Without this patch length calculation of string will always result in -1 because of comparision between signed and unsigned integer. Signed-off-by: M.

2011-01-10arp: allow to invalidate specific ARP entriesMaxim Levitsky
IPv4 over firewire needs to be able to remove ARP entries from the ARP cache that belong to nodes that are removed, because IPv4 over firewire uses ARP packets for private information about nodes. This information becomes invalid as soon as node drops off the bus and when it reconnects, its only possible to start talking to it after it responded to an ARP packet. But ARP cache prevents such packets from being sent. Signed-off-by: Maxim Levitsky <maximlevitsky@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2011-01-10net_sched: factorize qdisc stats handlingEric Dumazet
HTB takes into account skb is segmented in stats updates. Generalize this to all schedulers. They should use qdisc_bstats_update() helper instead of manipulating bstats.bytes and bstats.packets Add bstats_update() helper too for classes that use gnet_stats_basic_packed fields. Note : Right now, TCQ_F_CAN_BYPASS shortcurt can be taken only if no stab is setup on qdisc. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Added alloc_netdev_mqs function which allows the number of transmit and receive queues to be specified independenty. alloc_netdev_mq was changed to a macro to call the new function. Also added alloc_etherdev_mqs with same purpose. Signed-off-by: Tom Herbert <therbert@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
