In net/ieee80211/softmac/ieee80211softmac_wx.c, there is a bug that
prints extended sign information whenever the byte value exceeds

the output to 2 digits. This bug was first noticed by Dan Williams

IMHO the current fix to the problem (in_flight underflow in reno)
is incorrect. it treats the symptons but ignores the problem. the
problem is timing out packets other than the head packet when we
don't have sack. i try to explain (sorry if explaining the obvious).
with sack, scanning the retransmit queue for timed out packets is
fine because we know which packets in our retransmit queue have been
acked by the receiver.
without sack, we know only how many packets in our retransmit queue the
receiver has acknowledged, but no idea which packets.
think of a "typical" slow-start overshoot case, where for example
every third packet in a window get lost because a router buffer gets
full.
with sack, we check for timeouts on those every third packet (as the
rest have been sacked). the packet counting works out and if there
is no reordering, we'll retransmit exactly the packets that were
lost.
without sack, however, we check for timeout on every packet and end up
retransmitting consecutive packets in the retransmit queue. in our
slow-start example, 2/3 of those retransmissions are unnecessary. these
unnecessary retransmissions eat the congestion window and evetually
prevent fast recovery from continuing, if enough packets were lost.

A soft lockup existed in the handling of ack vector records.
Specifically, when a tail of the list of ack vector records was

The XID generator uses get_random_bytes to generate an initial XID.
NFS_ROOT starts up before the random driver, though, so get_random_bytes
doesn't set a random XID for NFS_ROOT. This causes NFS_ROOT mount points
to reuse XIDs every time the client is booted. If the client boots often
enough, the server will start serving old replies out of its DRC.
Use net_random() instead.
Test plan:
I/O intensive workloads should perform well and generate no errors. Traces
taken during client reboots should show that NFS_ROOT mounts use unique
XIDs after every reboot.

Make the RPC client select privileged ephemeral source ports at
random. This improves DRC behavior on the server by using the
same port when reconnecting for the same mount point, but using
a different port for fresh mounts.
The Linux TCP implementation already does this for nonprivileged
ports. Note that TCP sockets in TIME_WAIT will prevent quick reuse
of a random ephemeral port number by leaving the port INUSE until
the connection transitions out of TIME_WAIT.
Test plan:
Connectathon against every known server implementation using multiple
mount points. Locking especially.

Trimming the head of an skb by calling skb_pull can cause the packet
to become unaligned if the length pulled is odd. Since the length is
entirely arbitrary for a FIN packet carrying data, this is actually
quite common.
Unaligned data is not the end of the world, but we should avoid it if
it's easily done. In this case it is trivial. Since we're discarding
all of the head data it doesn't matter whether we move skb->data forward
or back.
However, it is still possible to have unaligned skb->data in general.
So network drivers should be prepared to handle it instead of crashing.
This patch also adds an unlikely marking on len < headlen since partial
ACKs on head data are extremely rare in the wild. As the return value
of __pskb_trim_head is no longer ever NULL that has been removed.

My router blew up earlier, but exhibited some interesting behaviour during
its dying moments. It was broadcasting beacons but wouldn't respond to
any authentication requests.
I noticed that softmac wasn't playing nice with this, as I couldn't make it try
to connect to other networks after it had timed out authenticating to my ill
router.
To resolve this, I modified the softmac event/notify API to pass the event
code to the callback, so that callbacks being notified from
IEEE80211SOFTMAC_EVENT_ANY masks can make some judgement. In this case, the
ieee80211softmac_assoc callback needs to make a decision based upon whether
the association passed or failed.

This patch finishes of the partially-complete shared key authentication
implementation in softmac.
The complication here is that we need to encrypt a management frame during
the authentication process. I don't think there are any other scenarios where
this would have to happen.
To get around this without causing too many headaches, we decided to just use
software encryption for this frame. The softmac config option now selects
IEEE80211_CRYPT_WEP so that we can ensure this available. This also involved
a modification to some otherwise unused ieee80211 API.

Fix memory corruption caused by snmp_trap_decode:
- When snmp_trap_decode fails before the id and address are allocated,
the pointers contain random memory, but are freed by the caller
(snmp_parse_mangle).
- When snmp_trap_decode fails after allocating just the ID, it tries
to free both address and ID, but the address pointer still contains
random memory. The caller frees both ID and random memory again.
- When snmp_trap_decode fails after allocating both, it frees both,
and the callers frees both again.
The corruption can be triggered remotely when the ip_nat_snmp_basic
module is loaded and traffic on port 161 or 162 is NATed.

sctp_rcv().
The goal is to hold the ref on the association/endpoint throughout the
state-machine process. We accomplish like this:
/* ref on the assoc/ep is taken during lookup */
if owned_by_user(sk)
sctp_add_backlog(skb, sk);
else
inqueue_push(skb, sk);
/* drop the ref on the assoc/ep */
However, in sctp_add_backlog() we take the ref on assoc/ep and hold it
while the skb is on the backlog queue. This allows us to get rid of the
sock_hold/sock_put in the lookup routines.
Now sctp_backlog_rcv() needs to account for potential association move.
In the unlikely event that association moved, we need to retest if the
new socket is locked by user. If we don't this, we may have two packets
racing up the stack toward the same socket and we can't deal with it.
If the new socket is still locked, we'll just add the skb to its backlog
continuing to hold the ref on the association. This get's rid of the
need to move packets from one backlog to another and it also safe in
case new packets arrive on the same backlog queue.
The last step, is to lock the new socket when we are moving the
association to it. This is needed in case any new packets arrive on
the association when it moved. We want these to go to the backlog since
we would like to avoid the race between this new packet and a packet
that may be sitting on the backlog queue of the old socket toward the
same association.
