Kevin Coffman 863a24882e gss_krb5: Use random value to initialize confounder
Initialize the value used for the confounder to a random value
rather than starting from zero.
Allow for confounders of length 8 or 16 (which will be needed for AES).

Kevin Coffman d00953a53e gss_krb5: create a define for token header size and clean up ptr location
cleanup:
Document token header size with a #define instead of open-coding it.

Don't needlessly increment "ptr" past the beginning of the header
which makes the values passed to functions more understandable and
eliminates the need for extra "krb5_hdr" pointer.

Clean up some intersecting  white-space issues flagged by checkpatch.pl.

This leaves the checksum length hard-coded at 8 for DES.  A later patch
cleans that up.

Jeff Layton 9867d76ca1 knfsd: convert knfsd to kthread API
This patch is rather large, but I couldn't figure out a way to break it
up that would remain bisectable. It does several things:

- change svc_thread_fn typedef to better match what kthread_create expects
- change svc_pool_map_set_cpumask to be more kthread friendly. Make it
  take a task arg and and get rid of the "oldmask"
- have svc_set_num_threads call kthread_create directly
- eliminate __svc_create_thread

Neil Brown bedbdd8bad knfsd: Replace lock_kernel with a mutex for nfsd thread startup/shutdown locking.
This removes the BKL from the RPC service creation codepath. The BKL
really isn't adequate for this job since some of this info needs
protection across sleeps.

Also, add some comments to try and clarify how the locking should work
and to make it clear that the BKL isn't necessary as long as there is
adequate locking between tasks when touching the svc_serv fields.

Eric Van Hensbergen 887b3ece65 9p: fix error path during early mount
There was some cleanup issues during early mount which would trigger
a kernel bug for certain types of failure.  This patch reorganizes the
cleanup to get rid of the bad behavior.

This also merges the 9pnet and 9pnet_fd modules for the purpose of
configuration and initialization.  Keeping the fd transport separate
from the core 9pnet code seemed like a good idea at the time, but in
practice has caused more harm and confusion than good.

Conntrack ID is not put (anymore ?) in event messages. This causes
current ulogd2 code to fail because it uses the ID to build a hash in

Conntrack ID can be used in userspace application to maintain an easy
match between kernel connections list and userspace one. It may worth
to add it if there is no performance related issue.

Ilpo Järvinen 79d44516b4 tcp FRTO: work-around inorder receivers
If receiver consumes segments successfully only in-order, FRTO
fallback to conventional recovery produces RTO loop because
FRTO's forward transmissions will always get dropped and need to
be resent, yet by default they're not marked as lost (which are
the only segments we will retransmit in CA_Loss).

Price to pay about this is occassionally unnecessarily
retransmitting the forward transmission(s). SACK blocks help
a bit to avoid this, so it's mainly a concern for NewReno case
though SACK is not fully immune either.

This change has a side-effect of fixing SACKFRTO problem where
it didn't have snd_nxt of the RTO time available anymore when
fallback become necessary (this problem would have only occured
when RTO would occur for two or more segments and ECE arrives
in step 3; no need to figure out how to fix that unless the
TODO item of selective behavior is considered in future).

Ilpo Järvinen a1c1f281b8 tcp FRTO: Fix fallback to conventional recovery
It seems that commit 009a2e3e4e ("[TCP] FRTO: Improve
interoperability with other undo_marker users") run into
another land-mine which caused fallback to conventional
recovery to break:

1. Cumulative ACK arrives after FRTO retransmission
2. tcp_try_to_open sees zero retrans_out, clears retrans_stamp
   which should be kept like in CA_Loss state it would be
3. undo_marker change allowed tcp_packet_delayed to return
   true because of the cleared retrans_stamp once FRTO is
   terminated causing LossUndo to occur, which means all loss
   markings FRTO made are reverted.

This means that the conventional recovery basically recovered
one loss per RTT, which is not that efficient. It was quite
unobvious that the undo_marker change broken something like
this, I had a quite long session to track it down because of
the non-intuitiviness of the bug (luckily I had a trivial
reproducer at hand and I was also able to learn to use kprobes
in the process as well :-)).

This together with the NewReno+FRTO fix and FRTO in-order
workaround this fixes Damon's problems, this and the first
mentioned are enough to fix Bugzilla #10063.

Steven Rostedt a1f2aa1be2 fix irq flags in mac80211 code
A file in the net/mac80211 directory uses "int" for flags.  This can cause
hard to find bugs on some architectures.  This patch converts the flags to use
"long" instead.

This bug was discovered by doing an allyesconfig make on the -rt kernel where
checks are done to ensure all flags are of size sizeof(long).

Ben Hutchings e46b66bc42 net: Added ASSERT_RTNL() to dev_open() and dev_close().
dev_open() and dev_close() must be called holding the RTNL, since they
call device functions and netdevice notifiers that are promised the RTNL.

Oliver Hartkopp c2ab7ac225 can: Fix can_send() handling on dev_queue_xmit() failures
The tx packet counting and the local loopback of CAN frames should
only happen in the case that the CAN frame has been enqueued to the
netdevice tx queue successfully.

Thanks to Andre Naujoks <nautsch@gmail.com> for reporting this issue.

Pavel Emelyanov aca51397d0 netns: Fix arbitrary net_device-s corruptions on net_ns stop.
When a net namespace is destroyed, some devices (those, not killed
on ns stop explicitly) are moved back to init_net.

The problem, is that this net_ns change has one point of failure -
the __dev_alloc_name() may be called if a name collision occurs (and
this is easy to trigger). This allocator performs a likely-to-fail
GFP_ATOMIC allocation to find a suitable number. Other possible 
conditions that may cause error (for device being ns local or not
registered) are always false in this case.

So, when this call fails, the device is unregistered. But this is
*not* the right thing to do, since after this the device may be
released (and kfree-ed) improperly. E. g. bridges require more
actions (sysfs update, timer disarming, etc.), some other devices 
want to remove their private areas from lists, etc.

I. e. arbitrary use-after-free cases may occur.

The proposed fix is the following: since the only reason for the
dev_change_net_namespace to fail is the name generation, we may
give it a unique fall-back name w/o %d-s in it - the dev<ifindex>
one, since ifindexes are still unique.

So make this change, raise the failure-case printk loglevel to 
EMERG and replace the unregister_netdevice call with BUG().
