jamal 72032fdbcd xfrm: Introduce LINUX_MIB_XFRMFWDHDRERROR
XFRMINHDRERROR counter is ambigous when validating forwarding
path. It makes it tricky to debug when you have both in and fwd
validation.

Andreas Petlund 7e38017557 net: TCP thin dupack
This patch enables fast retransmissions after one dupACK for
TCP if the stream is identified as thin. This will reduce
latencies for thin streams that are not able to trigger fast
retransmissions due to high packet interarrival time. This
mechanism is only active if enabled by iocontrol or syscontrol
and the stream is identified as thin.

Andreas Petlund 36e31b0af5 net: TCP thin linear timeouts
This patch will make TCP use only linear timeouts if the
stream is thin. This will help to avoid the very high latencies
that thin stream suffer because of exponential backoff. This
mechanism is only active if enabled by iocontrol or syscontrol
and the stream is identified as thin. A maximum of 6 linear
timeouts is tried before exponential backoff is resumed.

Ajit Khaparde e76b69cc01 net: bug fix for vlan + gro issue
Traffic (tcp) doesnot start on a vlan interface when gro is enabled.
Even the tcp handshake was not taking place.
This is because, the eth_type_trans call before the netif_receive_skb
in napi_gro_finish() resets the skb->dev to napi->dev from the previously
set vlan netdev interface. This causes the ip_route_input to drop the
incoming packet considering it as a packet coming from a martian source.

I could repro this on 2.6.32.7 (stable) and 2.6.33-rc7.
With this fix, the traffic starts and the test runs fine on both vlan
and non-vlan interfaces.

Tejun Heo 7d720c3e4f percpu: add __percpu sparse annotations to net
Add __percpu sparse annotations to net.

These annotations are to make sparse consider percpu variables to be

The macro and type tricks around snmp stats make things a bit
interesting.  DEFINE/DECLARE_SNMP_STAT() macros mark the target field
as __percpu and SNMP_UPD_PO_STATS() macro is updated accordingly.  All
snmp_mib_*() users which used to cast the argument to (void **) are
updated to cast it to (void __percpu **).

Stop computing the number of neighbour table settings we have by
counting the number of binary sysctls.  This behaviour was silly

without also adding another binary sysctl.

Don't pass the binary sysctl path for neighour table entries
into neigh_sysctl_register.  These parameters are no longer

Florian Westphal 90b89af7e1 netfilter: ebtables: try native set/getsockopt handlers, too
ebtables can be compiled to perform userspace-side padding of
structures. In that case, all the structures are already in the
'native' format expected by the kernel.

This tries to determine what format the userspace program is
using.

For most set/getsockopts, this can be done by checking
the len argument for sizeof(compat_ebt_replace) and
re-trying the native handler on error.

In case of EBT_SO_GET_ENTRIES, the native handler is tried first,
it will error out early when checking the *len argument
(the compat version has to defer this check until after
 iterating over the kernel data set once, to adjust for all
 the structure size differences).

As this would cause error printks, remove those as well, as
recommended by Bart de Schuymer.

Main code for 32 bit userland ebtables binary with 64 bit kernels
support.

Tested on x86_64 kernel only, using 64bit ebtables binary
for output comparision.

At least ebt_mark, m_mark and ebt_limit need CONFIG_COMPAT hooks, too.

remaining problem:

The ebtables userland makefile has:
ifeq ($(shell uname -m),sparc64)
	CFLAGS+=-DEBT_MIN_ALIGN=8 -DKERNEL_64_USERSPACE_32
endif

struct ebt_replace, ebt_entry_match etc. then contain userland-side
padding, i.e.  even if we are called from a 32 bit userland, the
structures may already be in the right format.

This problem is addressed in a follow-up patch.

Shan Wei 9546377c42 IPv6: Delete redundant counter of IPSTATS_MIB_REASMFAILS
When no more memory can be allocated, fq_find() will return NULL and

ipv6_frag_rcv() also increase the value of IPSTATS_MIB_REASMFAILS.

So, the patch deletes redundant counter of IPSTATS_MIB_REASMFAILS in fq_find().

Jouni Malinen 026331c4d9 cfg80211/mac80211: allow registering for and sending action frames
This implements a new command to register for action frames
that userspace wants to handle instead of the in-kernel
rejection. It is then responsible for rejecting ones that
it decided not to handle. There is no unregistration, but
the socket can be closed for that.

Frames that are not registered for will not be forwarded
to userspace and will be rejected by the kernel, the
cfg80211 API helps implementing that.

Additionally, this patch adds a new command that allows
doing action frame transmission from userspace. It can be
used either to exchange action frames on the current
operational channel (e.g., with the AP with which we are
currently associated) or to exchange off-channel Public
Action frames with the remain-on-channel command.

with 32 bit userland and 64 bit kernels, it is unlikely but possible
that insertion of new rules fails even tough there are only about 2000

for a user to a priori know the number of built-in CCIDs, other than trying
DCCP_SOCKOPT_AVAILABLE_CCIDS in a loop, incrementing the option length until
EINVAL is no longer returned.

This patch truncates the array to the user-provided length. No copy is made
when the length is <= 0.

Due to the length restriction in do_dccp_getsockopt() to sizeof(int), the
minimum array length remains 4, which is a reasonable default (only 3

Damian Lukowski 598856407d tcp: fix ICMP-RTO war
Make sure, that TCP has a nonzero RTT estimation after three-way
handshake. Currently, a listening TCP has a value of 0 for srtt,
rttvar and rto right after the three-way handshake is completed
with TCP timestamps disabled.
This will lead to corrupt RTO recalculation and retransmission
flood when RTO is recalculated on backoff reversion as introduced
in "Revert RTO on ICMP destination unreachable"
(f1ecd5d9e7).
This behaviour can be provoked by connecting to a server which

Jeff Layton dc5ddce956 sunrpc: parse and return errors reported by gssd
The kernel currently ignores any error code sent by gssd and always
considers it to be -EACCES. In order to better handle the situation of
an expired KRB5 TGT, the kernel needs to be able to parse and deal with
the errors that gssd sends. Aside from -EACCES the only error we care
about is -EKEYEXPIRED, which we're using to indicate that the upper
layers should retry the call a little later.

To maintain backward compatibility with older gssd's, any error other
than -EKEYEXPIRED is interpreted as -EACCES.

Johannes Berg 34e895075e mac80211: allow station add/remove to sleep
Many drivers would like to sleep during station
addition and removal, and currently have a high
complexity there from not being able to.

This introduces two new callbacks sta_add() and
sta_remove() that drivers can implement instead
of using sta_notify() and that can sleep, and
the new sta_add() callback is also allowed to
fail.

The reason we didn't do this previously is that
the IBSS code wants to insert stations from the
RX path, which is a tasklet, so cannot sleep.
This patch will keep the station allocation in
that path, but moves adding the station to the
driver out of line. Since the addition can now
fail, we can have IBSS peer structs the driver
rejected -- in that case we still talk to the
station but never tell the driver about it in
the control.sta pointer. If there will ever be
a driver that has a low limit on the number of
stations and that cannot talk to any stations
that are not known to it, we need to do come up
with a new strategy of handling larger IBSSs,
maybe quicker expiry or rejecting peers.

Johannes Berg c0ce77b832 mac80211: fix deferred hardware scan requests
Reinette found the reason for the warnings that
happened occasionally when a hw-offloaded scan
finished; her description of the problem:

  mac80211 will defer the handling of scan requests if it is
  busy with management work at the time. The scan requests
  are deferred and run after the work has completed. When
  this occurs there are currently two problems.

  * The scan request for hardware scan is not fully populated
    with the band and channels to scan not initialized.

  * When the scan is queued the state is not correctly updated
    to reflect that a scan is in progress. The problem here is
    that when the driver completes the scan and calls
    ieee80211_scan_completed() a warning will be triggered
    since mac80211 was not aware that a scan was in progress.

The reason is that the queued scan work will start
the hw scan right away when the hw_scan_req struct
has already been allocated. However, in the first
pass it will not have been filled, which happens
at the same time as setting the bits. To fix this,
simply move the allocation after the pending work
test as well, so that the first iteration of the
scan work will call __ieee80211_start_scan() even
in the hardware scan case.

Benoit Papillault 0da780c269 mac80211: Fix probe request filtering in IBSS mode
We only reply to probe request if either the requested SSID is the
broadcast SSID or if the requested SSID matches our own SSID. This
latter case was not properly handled since we were replying to different
SSID with the same length as our own SSID.

Eric Van Hensbergen 9d6939dac7 net/9p: fix statsize inside twstat
stat structures contain a size prefix.  In our twstat messages
we were including the size of the size prefix in the prefix, which is not
what the protocol wants, and Inferno servers would complain.

Patrick McHardy d696c7bdaa netfilter: nf_conntrack: fix hash resizing with namespaces
As noticed by Jon Masters <jonathan@jonmasters.org>, the conntrack hash
size is global and not per namespace, but modifiable at runtime through
/sys/module/nf_conntrack/hashsize. Changing the hash size will only
resize the hash in the current namespace however, so other namespaces
will use an invalid hash size. This can cause crashes when enlarging
the hashsize, or false negative lookups when shrinking it.

Move the hash size into the per-namespace data and only use the global
hash size to initialize the per-namespace value when instanciating a
new namespace. Additionally restrict hash resizing to init_net for
now as other namespaces are not handled currently.

As per C99 6.2.4(2) when temporary table data goes out of scope,
the behaviour is undefined:

	if (compat) {
		struct foo tmp;
		...
		private = &tmp;
	}
	[dereference private]

Alexey Dobriyan 13ccdfc2af netfilter: nf_conntrack: restrict runtime expect hashsize modifications
Expectation hashtable size was simply glued to a variable with no code
to rehash expectations, so it was a bug to allow writing to it.
Make "expect_hashsize" readonly.

Eric Dumazet 5b3501faa8 netfilter: nf_conntrack: per netns nf_conntrack_cachep
nf_conntrack_cachep is currently shared by all netns instances, but
because of SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU special semantics, this is wrong.

If we use a shared slab cache, one object can instantly flight between
one hash table (netns ONE) to another one (netns TWO), and concurrent
reader (doing a lookup in netns ONE, 'finding' an object of netns TWO)
can be fooled without notice, because no RCU grace period has to be
observed between object freeing and its reuse.

We dont have this problem with UDP/TCP slab caches because TCP/UDP
hashtables are global to the machine (and each object has a pointer to
its netns).

If we use per netns conntrack hash tables, we also *must* use per netns
conntrack slab caches, to guarantee an object can not escape from one
namespace to another one.

Patrick McHardy 9edd7ca0a3 netfilter: nf_conntrack: fix memory corruption with multiple namespaces
As discovered by Jon Masters <jonathan@jonmasters.org>, the "untracked"
conntrack, which is located in the data section, might be accidentally
freed when a new namespace is instantiated while the untracked conntrack
is attached to a skb because the reference count it re-initialized.

The best fix would be to use a seperate untracked conntrack per
namespace since it includes a namespace pointer. Unfortunately this is
not possible without larger changes since the namespace is not easily
available everywhere we need it. For now move the untracked conntrack
initialization to the init_net setup function to make sure the reference
count is not re-initialized and handle cleanup in the init_net cleanup
function to make sure namespaces can exit properly while the untracked
conntrack is in use in other namespaces.

Early on this was an experimental facility that few

Now it's a pretty fundamental thing and as people add
