Conflicts in the statistics regression bug fix from 'net',
but happily Matt Carlson originally posted the fix against
'net-next' so I used that to resolve this.

Greg Rose 48752f6513 rtnetlink: Fix VF IFLA policy
Add VF spoof check to IFLA policy.  The original patch I submitted to
add the spoof checking feature to rtnl failed to add the proper policy
rule that identifies the data type and len.  This patch corrects that
oversight.  No bugs have been reported against this but it may cause
some problem for the netlink message parsing that uses the policy
table.

Allan Stephens 9bbbc59dbd tipc: Optimize setting of immutable payload message header fields
Optimizes routines that send payload messages so that they no longer
update the "originating node" and "originating port" fields of the
outgoing message header template, since these fields are initialized
when the sending port is created and never change thereafter. Also
optimizes the routine which updates the message header template when
a connection to a port is established, for the same reason.

Removes code that updated the "previous node" field of an out-going
message over TIPC's links. Such updating is unnecessary since the
removal of the prototype multi-cluster capability means that all

Neal Cardwell 4c90d3b303 tcp: fix false reordering signal in tcp_shifted_skb
When tcp_shifted_skb() shifts bytes from the skb that is currently
pointed to by 'highest_sack' then the increment of
TCP_SKB_CB(skb)->seq implicitly advances tcp_highest_sack_seq(). This
implicit advancement, combined with the recent fix to pass the correct
SACKed range into tcp_sacktag_one(), caused tcp_sacktag_one() to think
that the newly SACKed range was before the tcp_highest_sack_seq(),
leading to a call to tcp_update_reordering() with a degree of
reordering matching the size of the newly SACKed range (typically just
1 packet, which is a NOP, but potentially larger).

This commit fixes this by simply calling tcp_sacktag_one() before the
TCP_SKB_CB(skb)->seq advancement that can advance our notion of the
highest SACKed sequence.

Correspondingly, we can simplify the code a little now that
tcp_shifted_skb() should update the lost_cnt_hint in all cases where
skb == tp->lost_skb_hint.

24) The conversion of the neighbour hash tables over to RCU added a
   race, fixed here by adding the necessary reread of tbl->nht, fix
   from Michel Machado.

25) When we added VF (virtual function) attributes for network device
   dumps, this potentially bloats up the size of the dump of one
   network device such that the dump size is too large for the buffer
   allocated by properly written netlink applications.

   In particular, if you add 255 VFs to a network device, parts of
   GLIBC stop working.

   To fix this, we add an attribute that is used to turn on these
   extended portions of the network device dump.  Sophisticaed
   applications like 'ip' that want to see this stuff  will be changed
   to set the attribute, whereas things like GLIBC that don't care
   about VFs simply will not, and therefore won't be busted by the
   mere presence of VFs on a network device.

   Thanks to the tireless work of Greg Rose on this fix.

Netfilter is going to use this patch to provide filtered dumps

entries that are not interesting for user-space.

More specifically, ctnetlink will include one operation to allow

Allan Stephens c74a46110f tipc: Remove duplicate check of message destination node
Eliminates a check in the processing of TIPC messages arriving from
off node that ensures the message is destined for this node, since this
check duplicates an earlier check. (The check would be necessary if TIPC

elimination of multi-cluster support means that this never happens and
all incoming messages are consumed by the receiving node.)

Note: This change involves the elimination of a single "if" statement
with a large "then" clause; consequently, a significant number of lines
end up getting re-indented. In addition, a simple message header access
routine that is no longer referenced is eliminated. However, the only
functional change is the elimination of the single check described above.

Allan Stephens 97878a405c tipc: Detect duplicate nodes using different network interfaces
Utilizes the new "node signature" field in neighbor discovery messages
to ensure that all links TIPC associates with a given <Z.C.N> network
address belong to the same neighboring node. (Previously, TIPC could not
tell if link setup requests arriving on different interfaces were from
the same node or from two different nodes that has mistakenly been assigned
the same network address.)

The revised algorithm for detecting a duplicate node considers both the
node signature and the network interface adddress specified in a request
message when deciding how to respond to a link setup request. This prevents
false alarms that might otherwise arise during normal network operation
under the following scenarios:

a) A neighboring node reboots. (The node's signature changes, but the
network interface address remains unchanged.)

b) A neighboring node's network interface is replaced. (The node's signature
remains unchanged, but the network interface address changes.)

c) A neighboring node is completely replaced. (The node's signature and
network interface address both change.)

The algorithm also handles cases in which a node reboots and re-establishes
its links to TIPC (or begins re-establishing those links) before TIPC
detects that it is using a new node signature. In such cases of "delayed
rediscovery" TIPC simply accepts the new signature without disrupting
communication that is already underway over the links.

Thanks to Laser [gotolaser@gmail.com] for his contributions to the
development of this enhancement.

Allan Stephens fc0eea691a tipc: Introduce node signature field in neighbor discovery message
Adds support for the new "node signature" in neighbor discovery messages,
which is a 16 bit identifier chosen randomly when TIPC is initialized.
This field makes it possible for nodes receiving a neighbor discovery
message to detect if multiple neighboring nodes are using the same network
address (i.e. <Z.C.N>), even when the messages are arriving on different
interfaces.

This first phase of node signature support creates the signature,
incorporates it into outgoing neighbor discovery messages, and tracks
the signature used by valid neighbors. An upcoming patch builds on this
foundation to implement the improved duplicate neighbor detection checking.

Jozsef Kadlecsik 7d367e0668 netfilter: ctnetlink: fix soft lockup when netlink adds new entries (v2)
Marcell Zambo and Janos Farago noticed and reported that when
new conntrack entries are added via netlink and the conntrack table
gets full, soft lockup happens. This is because the nf_conntrack_lock
is held while nf_conntrack_alloc is called, which is in turn wants
to lock nf_conntrack_lock while evicting entries from the full table.

The patch fixes the soft lockup with limiting the holding of the
nf_conntrack_lock to the minimum, where it's absolutely required.
It required to extend (and thus change) nf_conntrack_hash_insert
so that it makes sure conntrack and ctnetlink do not add the same entry
twice to the conntrack table.

Eric Dumazet 03606895cd ipsec: be careful of non existing mac headers
Niccolo Belli reported ipsec crashes in case we handle a frame without
mac header (atm in his case)

Before copying mac header, better make sure it is present.

Eric Dumazet 9f6f9af769 af_unix: MSG_TRUNC support for dgram sockets
Piergiorgio Beruto expressed the need to fetch size of first datagram in
queue for AF_UNIX sockets and suggested a patch against SIOCINQ ioctl.

I suggested instead to implement MSG_TRUNC support as a recv() input
flag, as already done for RAW, UDP & NETLINK sockets.

len = recv(fd, &byte, 1, MSG_PEEK | MSG_TRUNC);

MSG_TRUNC asks recv() to return the real length of the packet, even when
is was longer than the passed buffer.

There is risk that a userland application used MSG_TRUNC by accident
(since it had no effect on af_unix sockets) and this might break after
this patch.

Use eth_mac_addr() for .ndo_set_mac_address, remove
lowpan_set_address since it do currently the same as
eth_mac_addr(). Additional advantage: eth_mac_addr() already
checks if the given address is valid

Eric Dumazet 597cdbc223 atm: clip: remove clip_tbl
Commit 32092ecf06 (atm: clip: Use device neigh support on top of
"arp_tbl".) introduced a bug since clip_tbl is zeroed : Crash occurs in
__neigh_for_each_release()

idle_timer_check() must use instead arp_tbl and neigh_check_cb() should
ignore non clip neighbours.

Idea from David Miller.

Greg Rose 115c9b8192 rtnetlink: Fix problem with buffer allocation
Implement a new netlink attribute type IFLA_EXT_MASK.  The mask
is a 32 bit value that can be used to indicate to the kernel that
certain extended ifinfo values are requested by the user application.
At this time the only mask value defined is RTEXT_FILTER_VF to
indicate that the user wants the ifinfo dump to send information
about the VFs belonging to the interface.

This patch fixes a bug in which certain applications do not have
large enough buffers to accommodate the extra information returned
by the kernel with large numbers of SR-IOV virtual functions.
Those applications will not send the new netlink attribute with
the interface info dump request netlink messages so they will
not get unexpectedly large request buffers returned by the kernel.

Modifies the rtnl_calcit function to traverse the list of net
devices and compute the minimum buffer size that can hold the
info dumps of all matching devices based upon the filter passed
in via the new netlink attribute filter mask.  If no filter
mask is sent then the buffer allocation defaults to NLMSG_GOODSIZE.

With this change it is possible to add yet to be defined netlink
attributes to the dump request which should make it fairly extensible
in the future.
