Without CONFIG_BRIDGE_IGMP_SNOOPING,
BR_INPUT_SKB_CB(skb)->mrouters_only is not appropriately
initialized, so we can see garbage.
A clear option to fix this is to set it even without that
config, but we cannot optimize out the branch.
Let's introduce a macro that returns value of mrouters_only
and let it return 0 without CONFIG_BRIDGE_IGMP_SNOOPING.

Finally decided I should fix this. Its a straightforward inversion,
tipc_ref_acquire takes two locks in this order:
ref_table_lock
entry->lock
while tipc_deleteport takes them in this order:
entry->lock (via tipc_port_lock())
ref_table_lock (via tipc_ref_discard())
when the same entry is referenced, we get the above warning. The fix is equally
straightforward. Theres no real relation between the entry->lock and the
ref_table_lock (they just are needed at the same time), so move the entry->lock
aquisition in tipc_ref_acquire down, after we unlock ref_table_lock (this is
safe since the ref_table_lock guards changes to the reference table, and we've
already claimed a slot there. I've tested the below fix and confirmed that it
clears up the lockdep issue

This patch fixes UDP socket refcnt bugs in the pppol2tp driver.
A bug can cause a kernel stack trace when a tunnel socket is closed.
A way to reproduce the issue is to prepare the UDP socket for L2TP (by
opening a tunnel pppol2tp socket) and then close it before any L2TP
sessions are added to it. The sequence is
Create UDP socket
Create tunnel pppol2tp socket to prepare UDP socket for L2TP
pppol2tp_connect: session_id=0, peer_session_id=0
L2TP SCCRP control frame received (tunnel_id==0)
pppol2tp_recv_core: sock_hold()
pppol2tp_recv_core: sock_put
L2TP ZLB control frame received (tunnel_id=nnn)
pppol2tp_recv_core: sock_hold()
pppol2tp_recv_core: sock_put
Close tunnel management socket
pppol2tp_release: session_id=0, peer_session_id=0
Close UDP socket
udp_lib_close: BUG
The addition of sock_hold() in pppol2tp_connect() solves the problem.
For data frames, two sock_put() calls were added to plug a refcnt leak
per received data frame. The ref that is grabbed at the top of
pppol2tp_recv_core() must always be released, but this wasn't done for
accepted data frames or data frames discarded because of bad UDP
checksums. This leak meant that any UDP socket that had passed L2TP
data traffic (i.e. L2TP data frames, not just L2TP control frames)
using pppol2tp would not be released by the kernel.

XFS's vmap batching simply defers a number (up to 64) of vunmaps,
and keeps track of them in a list. To purge the batch, it just goes
through the list and calls vunamp on each one. This is pretty poor:
a global TLB flush is generally still performed on each vunmap, with
the most expensive parts of the operation being the broadcast IPIs
and locking involved in the SMP callouts, and the locking involved
in the vmap management -- none of these are avoided by just batching
up the calls. I'm actually surprised it ever made much difference.
(Now that the lazy vmap allocator is upstream, this description is
not quite right, but the vunmap batching still doesn't seem to do
much).
Rip all this logic out of XFS completely. I will improve vmap
performance and scalability directly in subsequent patch.

If we were to dynamically register/unregister leds and have udev or other

new LED and if the daemon immediately tries to open one of the attributes of
the led device, it would fail with a "no such file or directory" error since
this the attributes are not yet created. Fix this by switching attributes to be
class-wide, such that the driver core will register these attributes with
device_add_attrs and then emit the kobject_uevent ADD signal.

The driver wrongly sets default state for LEDs that don't specify
default-state property.
Currently the driver handles default state this way:
memset(&led, 0, sizeof(led));
for_each_child_of_node(np, child) {
state = of_get_property(child, "default-state", NULL);
if (state) {
if (!strcmp(state, "keep"))
led.default_state = LEDS_GPIO_DEFSTATE_KEEP;
...
}
ret = create_gpio_led(&led, ...);
}
Which means that all LEDs that do not specify default-state will inherit
the last value of the default-state property, which is wrong.
This patch fixes the issue by moving LED's template initialization into
the loop body.

bridge: Fix br_forward crash in promiscuous mode
It's a linux-next kernel from 2010-03-12 on an x86 system and it
OOPs in the bridge module in br_pass_frame_up (called by
br_handle_frame_finish) because brdev cannot be dereferenced (its set to
a non-null value).
Adding some BUG_ON statements revealed that
BR_INPUT_SKB_CB(skb)->brdev == br-dev
(as set in br_handle_frame_finish first)
only holds until br_forward is called.
The next call to br_pass_frame_up then fails.
Digging deeper it seems that br_forward either frees the skb or passes
it to NF_HOOK which will in turn take care of freeing the skb. The
same is holds for br_pass_frame_ip. So it seems as if two independent
skb allocations are required. As far as I can see, commit
b33084be19 ("bridge: Avoid unnecessary
clone on forward path") removed skb duplication and so likely causes
this crash. This crash does not happen on 2.6.33.
I've therefore modified br_forward the same way br_flood has been
modified so that the skb is not freed if skb0 is going to be used
and I can confirm that the attached patch resolves the issue for me.
