Using skb_header_cloned to check if it's safe to write to the skb is not
enough - mac80211 also touches the tailroom of the skb.
Initially this check was only used to increase a counter, however this
commit changed the code to also skip skb data reallocation if no extra
head/tailroom was needed:
commit 4cd06a344db752f513437138953af191cbe9a691
mac80211: skip unnecessary pskb_expand_head calls
It added a regression at least with iwl3945, which is fixed by this patch.

When the off-channel TX is done with remain-on-channel
offloaded to hardware, the reported cookie is wrong as
in that case we shouldn't use the SKB as the cookie but
need to instead use the corresponding r-o-c cookie
(XOR'ed with 2 to prevent API mismatches).
Fix this by keeping track of the hw_roc_skb pointer
just for the status processing and use the correct
cookie to report in this case. We can't use the
hw_roc_skb pointer itself because it is NULL'ed when
the frame is transmitted to prevent it being used
twice.
This fixes a bug where the P2P state machine in the
supplicant gets stuck because it never gets a correct
result for its transmitted frame.

This patch fixes a minor issue that two connection responses will be sent
for one L2CAP connection request. If the L2CAP connection request is first
blocked due to security reason and responded with reason "security block",
the state of the connection remains BT_CONNECT2. If a pairing procedure
completes successfully before the ACL connection is down, local host will
send another connection complete response. See the following packets
captured by hcidump.

Some drivers (e.g. ath9k) do not always disable beacons when they're
supposed to. When an interface is changed using the change_interface op,
the mode specific sdata part is in an undefined state and trying to
get a beacon at this point can produce weird crashes.
To fix this, add a check for ieee80211_sdata_running before using
anything from the sdata.

The conn->sec_level value is supposed to represent the current level of
security that the connection has. However, by assigning to it before
requesting authentication it will have the wrong value during the
authentication procedure. To fix this a pending_sec_level variable is
added which is used to track the desired security level while making
sure that sec_level always represents the current level of security.

When there is an existing connection l2cap_check_security needs to be
called to ensure that the security level of the new socket is fulfilled.
Normally l2cap_do_start takes care of this, but that function doesn't
get called for SOCK_RAW type sockets. This patch adds the necessary
l2cap_check_security call to the appropriate branch in l2cap_do_connect.

The logic for determining the needed auth_type for an L2CAP socket is
rather complicated and has so far been duplicated in
l2cap_check_security as well as l2cap_do_connect. Additionally the
l2cap_check_security code was completely missing the handling of
SOCK_RAW type sockets. This patch creates a unified function for the
evaluation and makes l2cap_do_connect and l2cap_check_security use that
function.

This reverts commit 045309820afe047920a50de25634dab46a1e851d. That
commit is wrong for two reasons:
- The conn->sec_level shouldn't be updated without performing
authentication first (as it's supposed to represent the level of
security that the existing connection has)
- A higher auth_type value doesn't mean "more secure" like the commit
seems to assume. E.g. dedicated bonding with MITM protection is 0x03
whereas general bonding without MITM protection is 0x04. hci_conn_auth
already takes care of updating conn->auth_type so hci_connect doesn't
need to do it.

When the buffer size is set to zero in the block ack parameter set
field, we should use the maximum supported number of subframes. The

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.

In order to compute the features for other offloads (primarily
scatter/gather), we need to first check the ability of the NIC to
offload the checksum for the packet. Since we have already computed
this, we can directly use the result instead of figuring it out
again.

This switches skb_need_linearize() to use the features that have
been centrally computed. In doing so, this fixes a problem where
scatter/gather should not be used because the card does not support
checksum offloading on that type of packet. On device registration
we only check that some form of checksum offloading is available if
scatter/gatther is enabled but we must also check at transmission
time. Examples of this include IPv6 or vlan packets on a NIC that
only supports IPv4 offloading.

Now that there is a single function that can compute the device
features relevant to a packet, we don't want to run it for each

of the device, rather than computing them itself.

netif_get_vlan_features() is currently only used by netif_needs_gso(),
so it only concerns itself with GSO features. However, several other
places also should take into account the contents of the packet when
deciding whether to offload to hardware. This generalizes the function
to return features about all of the various forms of offloading. Since
offloads tend to be linked together, this avoids duplicating the logic
in each location (i.e. the scatter/gather code also needs the checksum
logic).

We currently only have software fallback for one type of checksum: the
TCP/UDP one's complement. This means that a protocol that uses hardware
offloading for a different type of checksum (FCoE, SCTP) must directly
check the device's features and do the right thing ahead of time. By
the time we get to dev_can_checksum(), we're only deciding whether to
apply the one algorithm in software or hardware. NETIF_F_HW_CSUM has the
same capabilities as the software version, so we should always use it if
present. The primary advantage of this is multiply tagged vlans can use
hardware checksumming.

The 'seq_window' sysctl sets the initial value for the DCCP Sequence Window,
which may range from 32..2^46-1 (RFC 4340, 7.5.2). The patch sets the upper
bound consistently to 2^32-1 on both 32 and 64 bit systems, which should be
sufficient - with a RTT of 1sec and 1-byte packets, a seq_window of 2^32-1
corresponds to a link speed of 34 Gbps.

The problem that this patch aims to fix is vfsmount refcounting scalability.
We need to take a reference on the vfsmount for every successful path lookup,
which often go to the same mount point.
The fundamental difficulty is that a "simple" reference count can never be made
scalable, because any time a reference is dropped, we must check whether that
was the last reference. To do that requires communication with all other CPUs
that may have taken a reference count.
We can make refcounts more scalable in a couple of ways, involving keeping
distributed counters, and checking for the global-zero condition less
frequently.
- check the global sum once every interval (this will delay zero detection
for some interval, so it's probably a showstopper for vfsmounts).
- keep a local count and only taking the global sum when local reaches 0 (this
is difficult for vfsmounts, because we can't hold preempt off for the life of
a reference, so a counter would need to be per-thread or tied strongly to a
particular CPU which requires more locking).
- keep a local difference of increments and decrements, which allows us to sum
the total difference and hence find the refcount when summing all CPUs. Then,
keep a single integer "long" refcount for slow and long lasting references,
and only take the global sum of local counters when the long refcount is 0.
This last scheme is what I implemented here. Attached mounts and process root
and working directory references are "long" references, and everything else is
a short reference.
This allows scalable vfsmount references during path walking over mounted
subtrees and unattached (lazy umounted) mounts with processes still running
in them.
This results in one fewer atomic op in the fastpath: mntget is now just a
per-CPU inc, rather than an atomic inc; and mntput just requires a spinlock
and non-atomic decrement in the common case. However code is otherwise bigger
and heavier, so single threaded performance is basically a wash.

This saves a pointer memory access (dentry->d_op) in common path lookup
situations, and saves another pointer load and branch in cases where we
have d_op but not the particular operation.
Patched with:
git grep -E '[.>]([[:space:]])*d_op([[:space:]])*=' | xargs sed -e 's/\([^\t ]*\)->d_op = \(.*\);/d_set_d_op(\1, \2);/' -e 's/\([^\t ]*\)\.d_op = \(.*\);/d_set_d_op(\&\1, \2);/' -i

Pseudo filesystems that don't put inode on RCU list or reachable by
rcu-walk dentries do not need to RCU free their inodes.

RCU free the struct inode. This will allow:
- Subsequent store-free path walking patch. The inode must be consulted for
permissions when walking, so an RCU inode reference is a must.
- sb_inode_list_lock to be moved inside i_lock because sb list walkers who want
to take i_lock no longer need to take sb_inode_list_lock to walk the list in
the first place. This will simplify and optimize locking.
- Could remove some nested trylock loops in dcache code
- Could potentially simplify things a bit in VM land. Do not need to take the
page lock to follow page->mapping.
The downsides of this is the performance cost of using RCU. In a simple
creat/unlink microbenchmark, performance drops by about 10% due to inability to
reuse cache-hot slab objects. As iterations increase and RCU freeing starts
kicking over, this increases to about 20%.
In cases where inode lifetimes are longer (ie. many inodes may be allocated
during the average life span of a single inode), a lot of this cache reuse is
not applicable, so the regression caused by this patch is smaller.
The cache-hot regression could largely be avoided by using SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU,
however this adds some complexity to list walking and store-free path walking,
so I prefer to implement this at a later date, if it is shown to be a win in
real situations. I haven't found a regression in any non-micro benchmark so I
doubt it will be a problem.

Change d_delete from a dentry deletion notification to a dentry caching
advise, more like ->drop_inode. Require it to be constant and idempotent,
and not take d_lock. This is how all existing filesystems use the callback
anyway.
This makes fine grained dentry locking of dput and dentry lru scanning
much simpler.

In 1ae4de0cdf855305765592647025bde55e85e451, the secctx was exported
via the /proc/net/netfilter/nf_conntrack and ctnetlink interfaces
instead of the secmark.
That patch introduced the use of security_secid_to_secctx() which may
return a non-zero value on error.
In one of my setups, I have NF_CONNTRACK_SECMARK enabled but no
security modules. Thus, security_secid_to_secctx() returns a negative
value that results in the breakage of the /proc and `conntrack -L'
outputs. To fix this, we skip the inclusion of secctx if the
aforementioned function fails.
This patch also fixes the dynamic netlink message size calculation
if security_secid_to_secctx() returns an error, since its logic is
also wrong.
This problem exists in Linux kernel >= 2.6.37.

Since nf_ct_expect_dst_hash() may be called without nf_conntrack_lock
locked, nf_ct_expect_hash_rnd should be initialized in the atomic way.
In this patch, we use nf_conntrack_hash_rnd instead of
nf_ct_expect_hash_rnd.

RFC3168 (The Addition of Explicit Congestion Notification to IP)
states :
5.3. Fragmentation
ECN-capable packets MAY have the DF (Don't Fragment) bit set.
Reassembly of a fragmented packet MUST NOT lose indications of
congestion. In other words, if any fragment of an IP packet to be
reassembled has the CE codepoint set, then one of two actions MUST be
taken:
* Set the CE codepoint on the reassembled packet. However, this
MUST NOT occur if any of the other fragments contributing to
this reassembly carries the Not-ECT codepoint.
* The packet is dropped, instead of being reassembled, for any
other reason.
This patch implements this requirement for IPv4, choosing the first
action :
If one fragment had NO-ECT codepoint
reassembled frame has NO-ECT
ElIf one fragment had CE codepoint
reassembled frame has CE

Leonardo Chiquitto found poll() could block forever on tcp sockets and
Urgent data was received, if the event flag only contains POLLPRI.
He did a bisection and found commit 4938d7e0233 (poll: avoid extra
wakeups in select/poll) was the source of the problem.
Problem is TCP sockets use standard sock_def_readable() function for
their sk_data_ready() handler, and sock_def_readable() doesnt signal
POLLPRI.
Only TCP is affected by the problem. Adding POLLPRI to the list of flags
might trigger unnecessary schedules, but URGENT handling is such a
seldom used feature this seems a good compromise.
Thanks a lot to Leonardo for providing the bisection result and a test
program as well.

unix_release() can asynchornously set socket->sk to NULL, and
it does so without holding the unix_state_lock() on "other"
during stream connects.
However, the reverse mapping, sk->sk_socket, is only transitioned
to NULL under the unix_state_lock().
Therefore make the security hooks follow the reverse mapping instead
of the forward mapping.

commit 57dbb2d83d100ea (sched: add head drop fifo queue)
introduced pfifo_head_drop, and broke the invariant that
sch->bstats.bytes and sch->bstats.packets are COUNTER (increasing
counters only)
This can break estimators because est_timer() handles unsigned deltas
only. A decreasing counter can then give a huge unsigned delta.
My mid term suggestion would be to change things so that
sch->bstats.bytes and sch->bstats.packets are incremented in dequeue()
only, not at enqueue() time. We also could add drop_bytes/drop_packets
and provide estimations of drop rates.
It would be more sensible anyway for very low speeds, and big bursts.
Right now, if we drop packets, they still are accounted in byte/packets
abolute counters and rate estimators.
Before this mid term change, this patch makes pfifo_head_drop behavior
similar to other qdiscs in case of drops :
Dont decrement sch->bstats.bytes and sch->bstats.packets
