2010-10-27tunnels: Fix tunnels change rcu protectionPavel Emelyanov
After making rcu protection for tunnels (ipip, gre, sit and ip6) a bug was introduced into the SIOCCHGTUNNEL code. The tunnel is first unlinked, then addresses change, then it is linked back probably into another bucket. But while changing the parms, the hash table is unlocked to readers and they can lookup the improper tunnel. Respective commits are b7285b79 (ipip: get rid of ipip_lock), 1507850b (gre: get rid of ipgre_lock), 3a43be3c (sit: get rid of ipip6_lock) and 94767632 (ip6tnl: get rid of ip6_tnl_lock). The quick fix is to wait for quiescent state to pass after unlinking, but if it is inappropriate I can invent something better, just let me know.

Adds __rcu annotations to inetpeer (struct inet_peer)->avl_left (struct inet_peer)->avl_right This is a tedious cleanup, but removes one smp_wmb() from link_to_pool() since we now use more self documenting rcu_assign_pointer().

2010-10-27ipv6: fix refcnt problem related to POSTDAD stateUrsula Braun
After running this bonding setup script modprobe bonding miimon=100 mode=0 max_bonds=1 ifconfig bond0 10.1.1.1/16 ifenslave bond0 eth1 ifenslave bond0 eth3 on s390 with qeth-driven slaves, modprobe -r fails with this message unregister_netdevice: waiting for bond0 to become free. Usage count = 1 due to twice detection of duplicate address. Problem is caused by a missing decrease of ifp->refcnt in addrconf_dad_failure. An extra call of in6_ifa_put(ifp) solves it.

2010-10-26fs: allow for more than 2^31 filesEric Dumazet
Robin Holt tried to boot a 16TB system and found af_unix was overflowing a 32bit value : <quote> We were seeing a failure which prevented boot. The kernel was incapable of creating either a named pipe or unix domain socket. This comes down to a common kernel function called unix_create1() which does: atomic_inc(&unix_nr_socks); if (atomic_read(&unix_nr_socks) > 2 * get_max_files()) goto out; The function get_max_files() is a simple return of files_stat.max_files. files_stat.max_files is a signed integer and is computed in fs/file_table.c's files_init(). n = (mempages * (PAGE_SIZE / 1024)) / 10; files_stat.max_files = n; In our case, mempages (total_ram_pages) is approx 3,758,096,384 (0xe0000000). That leaves max_files at approximately 1,503,238,553. This causes 2 * get_max_files() to integer overflow. </quote> Fix is to let /proc/sys/fs/file-nr & /proc/sys/fs/file-max use long integers, and change af_unix to use an atomic_long_t instead of atomic_t. get_max_files() is changed to return an unsigned long. get_nr_files() is changed to return a long. unix_nr_socks is changed from atomic_t to atomic_long_t, while not strictly needed to address Robin problem.

2010-10-26IPv6: Temp addresses are immediately deleted.Glenn Wurster
There is a bug in the interaction between ipv6_create_tempaddr and addrconf_verify. Because ipv6_create_tempaddr uses the cstamp and tstamp from the public address in creating a private address, if we have not received a router advertisement in a while, tstamp + temp_valid_lft might be < now. If this happens, the new address is created inside ipv6_create_tempaddr, then the loop within addrconf_verify starts again and the address is immediately deleted. We are left with no temporary addresses on the interface, and no more will be created until the public IP address is updated. To avoid this, set the expiry time to be the minimum of the time left on the public address or the config option PLUS the current age of the public interface.

2010-10-26fib: fix fib_nl_newrule()Eric Dumazet
Some panic reports in fib_rules_lookup() show a rule could have a NULL pointer as a next pointer in the rules_list. This can actually happen because of a bug in fib_nl_newrule() : It checks if current rule is the destination of unresolved gotos. (Other rules have gotos to this about to be inserted rule) Problem is it does the resolution of the gotos before the rule is inserted in the rules_list (and has a valid next pointer) Fix this by moving the rules_list insertion before the changes on gotos. A lockless reader can not any more follow a ctarget pointer, unless destination is ready (has a valid next pointer) Reported-by: Oleg A.

2010-10-25fs: do not assign default i_ino in new_inodeChristoph Hellwig
Instead of always assigning an increasing inode number in new_inode move the call to assign it into those callers that actually need it. For now callers that need it is estimated conservatively, that is the call is added to all filesystems that do not assign an i_ino by themselves. For a few more filesystems we can avoid assigning any inode number given that they aren't user visible, and for others it could be done lazily when an inode number is actually needed, but that's left for later patches.

2010-10-25cfg80211: fix regression on processing country IEsLuis R. Rodriguez
The patch 4f366c5: wireless: only use alpha2 regulatory information from country IE removed some complex intersection we were always doing between the AP's country IE info and what we got from CRDA. When CRDA sent us back a regulatory domain we would do some sanity checks on that regulatory domain response we just got. Part of these sanity checks included checking that we already had performed an intersection for the request of NL80211_REGDOM_SET_BY_COUNTRY_IE type. This mean that cfg80211 was only processing country IEs for cases where we already had an intersection, but since we removed enforcing this this is no longer required, we should just apply the country IE country hint with the data received from CRDA.

2010-10-24netlink: fix netlink_change_ngroups()Eric Dumazet
commit 6c04bb18ddd633 (netlink: use call_rcu for netlink_change_ngroups) used a somewhat convoluted and racy way to perform call_rcu(). The old block of memory is freed after a grace period, but the rcu_head used to track it is located in new block. This can clash if we call two times or more netlink_change_ngroups(), and a block is freed before another. call_rcu() called on different cpus makes no guarantee in order of callbacks. Fix this using a more standard way of handling this : Each block of memory contains its own rcu_head, so that no 'use after free' can happens.

2010-10-24tproxy: Add missing CAP_NET_ADMIN check to ipv6 sideBalazs Scheidler
IP_TRANSPARENT requires root (more precisely CAP_NET_ADMIN privielges) for IPV6. However as I see right now this check was missed from the IPv6 implementation. Acked-by: YOSHIFUJI Hideaki <yoshfuji@linux-ipv6.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

The ip6_tunnel device did not unset the flag, IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE. This will make the dev layer to release the dst before calling the tunnel. The tunnel will not update any mtu/pmtu info, since it does not have a dst on the skb. Acked-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2010-10-24pktgen: clean up handling of local/transient counter varsPaul Gortmaker
The temporary variable "i" is needlessly initialized to zero in two distinct cases in this file: 1) where it is set to zero and then used as an argument in an addition before being assigned a non-zero value. 2) where it is only used in a standard/typical loop counter For (1), simply delete assignment to zero and usages while still zero; for (2) simply make the loop start at zero as per standard practice as seen everywhere else in the same file.
