Henrique de Moraes Holschuh 79399a8d19 rfkill: add notifier chains support
Add a notifier chain for use by the rfkill class.  This notifier chain
signals the following events (more to be added when needed):

  1. rfkill: rfkill device state has changed

A pointer to the rfkill struct will be passed as a parameter.

The notifier message types have been added to include/linux/rfkill.h
instead of to include/linux/notifier.h in order to avoid the madness of
modifying a header used globally (and that triggers an almost full tree
rebuild every time it is touched) with information that is of interest only
to code that includes the rfkill.h header.

Henrique de Moraes Holschuh 526324b61a rfkill: rework suspend and resume handlers
The resume handler should reset the wireless transmitter rfkill
state to exactly what it was when the system was suspended.  Do it,
and do it using the normal routines for state change while at it.

The suspend handler should force-switch the transmitter to blocked
state, ignoring caches.  Do it.

Also take an opportunity shot to rfkill_remove_switch() and also
force the transmitter to blocked state there, bypassing caches.

Henrique de Moraes Holschuh 477576a073 rfkill: add the WWAN radio type
Unfortunately, instead of adding a generic Wireless WAN type, a technology-
specific type (WiMAX) was added.  That's useless for other WWAN devices,
such as EDGE, UMTS, X-RTT and other such radios.

Add a WWAN rfkill type for generic wireless WAN devices.  No keys are added
as most devices really want to use KEY_WLAN for WWAN control (in a cycle of
none, WLAN, WWAN, WLAN+WWAN) and need no specific keycode added.

Henrique de Moraes Holschuh 801e49af4c rfkill: add read-write rfkill switch support
Currently, rfkill support for read/write rfkill switches is hacked through
a round-trip over the input layer and rfkill-input to let a driver sync
rfkill->state to hardware changes.

This is buggy and sub-optimal.  It causes real problems.  It is best to
think of the rfkill class as supporting only write-only switches at the
moment.

In order to implement the read/write functionality properly:

Add a get_state() hook that is called by the class every time it needs to
fetch the current state of the switch.  Add a call to this hook every time
the *current* state of the radio plays a role in a decision.

Also add a force_state() method that can be used to forcefully syncronize
the class' idea of the current state of the switch.  This allows for a
faster implementation of the read/write functionality, as a driver which
get events on switch changes can avoid the need for a get_state() hook.

If the get_state() hook is left as NULL, current behaviour is maintained,
so this change is fully backwards compatible with the current rfkill
drivers.

For hardware that issues events when the rfkill state changes, leave
get_state() NULL in the rfkill struct, set the initial state properly
before registering with the rfkill class, and use the force_state() method
in the driver to keep the rfkill interface up-to-date.

get_state() can be called by the class from atomic context. It must not
sleep.

Henrique de Moraes Holschuh e954b0b85b rfkill: add parameter to disable radios by default
Currently, radios are always enabled when their rfkill interface is
registered.  This is not optimal, the safest state for a radio is to be
offline unless the user turns it on.

Add a module parameter that causes all radios to be disabled when their
rfkill interface is registered.  The module default is not changed so
unless the parameter is used, radios will still be forced to their enabled
state when they are registered.

The new rfkill module parameter is called "default_state".

Henrique de Moraes Holschuh f3146aff7f rfkill: clarify meaning of rfkill states
rfkill really should have been named rfswitch.  As it is, one can get
confused whether RFKILL_STATE_ON means the KILL switch is on (and
therefore, the radio is being *blocked* from operating), or whether it
means the RADIO rf output is on.

Clearly state that RFKILL_STATE_ON means the radio is *unblocked* from
operating (i.e. there is no rf killing going on).

The TPA stands for Transparent Packet Aggregation. When enabled, the FW
aggregate in-order TCP packets according to the 4-tuple match and sends
1 big packet to the driver. This packet is stored on an SGL in which
each SGE is 1 page. The FW also implements a timeout algorithm and it
honors all TCP flag, including the push flag as a trigger to halt
aggregation.

After receiving Ben Hutchings comments, we also added ethtool support,
so now, thanks to Ben's patch, when forwarding is enabled, our
aggregation is turned off using the LRO flags.

to protect the DMAE from being overlapped was added.  There are few
new registers which needs to be initialized by SW - the full comment

Vlad Yasevich 2e3216cd54 sctp: Follow security requirement of responding with 1 packet
RFC 4960, Section 11.4. Protection of Non-SCTP-Capable Hosts

When an SCTP stack receives a packet containing multiple control or
DATA chunks and the processing of the packet requires the sending of
multiple chunks in response, the sender of the response chunk(s) MUST
NOT send more than one packet.  If bundling is supported, multiple
response chunks that fit into a single packet MAY be bundled together
into one single response packet.  If bundling is not supported, then
the sender MUST NOT send more than one response chunk and MUST
discard all other responses.  Note that this rule does NOT apply to a
SACK chunk, since a SACK chunk is, in itself, a response to DATA and
a SACK does not require a response of more DATA.

We implement this by not servicing our outqueue until we reach the end
of the packet.  This enables maximum bundling.  We also identify
'response' chunks and make sure that we only send 1 packet when sending
such chunks.

Patrick McHardy 6d1a3fb567 netlink: genl: fix circular locking
genetlink has a circular locking dependency when dumping the registered
families:

- dump start:
genl_rcv()            : take genl_mutex
genl_rcv_msg()        : call netlink_dump_start() while holding genl_mutex
netlink_dump_start(),

ctrl_dumpfamily()     : try to detect this case and not take genl_mutex a

- dump continuance:
netlink_rcv()         : call netlink_dump
netlink_dump          : take nlk->cb_mutex
ctrl_dumpfamily()     : take genl_mutex

Register genl_lock as callback mutex with netlink to fix this. This slightly
widens an already existing module unload race, the genl ops used during the
dump might go away when the module is unloaded. Thomas Graf is working on a
seperate fix for this.

Wang Chen dad9b335c6 netdevice: Fix promiscuity and allmulti overflow
Max of promiscuity and allmulti plus positive @inc can cause overflow.
Fox example: when allmulti=0xFFFFFFFF, any caller give dev_set_allmulti() a
positive @inc will cause allmulti be off.
This is not what we want, though it's rare case.
The fix is that only negative @inc will cause allmulti or promiscuity be off
and when any caller makes the counters touch the roof, we return error.

Change of v2:
Change void function dev_set_promiscuity/allmulti to return int.
So callers can get the overflow error.
Caller's fix will be done later.

Change of v3:
1. Since we return error to caller, we don't need to print KERN_ERROR,
KERN_WARNING is enough.

David S. Miller 3a5be7d4b0 Revert "mac80211: Use skb_header_cloned() on TX path."
This reverts commit 608961a5ec.

The problem is that the mac80211 stack not only needs to be able to
muck with the link-level headers, it also might need to mangle all of
the packet data if doing sw wireless encryption.

This fixes kernel bugzilla #10903.  Thanks to Didier Raboud (for the
bugzilla report), Andrew Prince (for bisecting), Johannes Berg (for
bringing this bisection analysis to my attention), and Ilpo (for
trying to analyze this purely from the TCP side).

In 2.6.27 we can take another stab at this, by using something like
skb_cow_data() when the TX path of mac80211 ends up with a non-NULL
tx->key.  The ESP protocol code in the IPSEC stack can be used as a
model for implementation.

David S. Miller 972692e0db net: Add sk_set_socket() helper.
In order to more easily grep for all things that set
sk->sk_socket, add sk_set_socket() helper inline function.

Rainer Weikusat 3c73419c09 af_unix: fix 'poll for write'/ connected DGRAM sockets
The unix_dgram_sendmsg routine implements a (somewhat crude)
form of receiver-imposed flow control by comparing the length of the
receive queue of the 'peer socket' with the max_ack_backlog value
stored in the corresponding sock structure, either blocking
the thread which caused the send-routine to be called or returning
EAGAIN. This routine is used by both SOCK_DGRAM and SOCK_SEQPACKET
sockets. The poll-implementation for these socket types is
datagram_poll from core/datagram.c. A socket is deemed to be writeable
by this routine when the memory presently consumed by datagrams
owned by it is less than the configured socket send buffer size. This
is always wrong for connected PF_UNIX non-stream sockets when the
abovementioned receive queue is currently considered to be full.
'poll' will then return, indicating that the socket is writeable, but
a subsequent write result in EAGAIN, effectively causing an
(usual) application to 'poll for writeability by repeated send request
with O_NONBLOCK set' until it has consumed its time quantum.

The change below uses a suitably modified variant of the datagram_poll
routines for both type of PF_UNIX sockets, which tests if the
recv-queue of the peer a socket is connected to is presently
considered to be 'full' as part of the 'is this socket
writeable'-checking code. The socket being polled is additionally
put onto the peer_wait wait queue associated with its peer, because the
unix_dgram_sendmsg routine does a wake up on this queue after a
datagram was received and the 'other wakeup call' is done implicitly
as part of skb destruction, meaning, a process blocked in poll
because of a full peer receive queue could otherwise sleep forever
if no datagram owned by its socket was already sitting on this queue.
Among this change is a small (inline) helper routine named
'unix_recvq_full', which consolidates the actual testing code (in three
different places) into a single location.

David S. Miller 30902dc3cb ax25: Fix std timer socket destroy handling.
Tihomir Heidelberg - 9a4gl, reports:

--------------------
I would like to direct you attention to one problem existing in ax.25
kernel since 2.4. If listening socket is closed and its SKB queue is
released but those sockets get weird. Those "unAccepted()" sockets
should be destroyed in ax25_std_heartbeat_expiry, but it will not
happen. And there is also a note about that in ax25_std_timer.c:
/* Magic here: If we listen() and a new link dies before it
is accepted() it isn't 'dead' so doesn't get removed. */

This issue cause ax25d to stop accepting new connections and I had to
restarted ax25d approximately each day and my services were unavailable.
Also netstat -n -l shows invalid source and device for those listening
sockets. It is strange why ax25d's listening socket get weird because of
this issue, but definitely when I solved this bug I do not have problems
with ax25d anymore and my ax25d can run for months without problems.
--------------------

Actually as far as I can see, this problem is even in releases
as far back as 2.2.x as well.

It seems senseless to special case this test on TCP_LISTEN state.
Anything still stuck in state 0 has no external references and
we can just simply kill it off directly.

By default, tun.c running in TUN_TUN_DEV mode will set the protocol of
packet to IPv4 if TUN_NO_PI is set. My program failed to work when I
assumed that the driver will check the first nibble of packet,
determine IP version and set the appropriate protocol.
