00de651d14 [IPSEC]: Fix strange IPsec freeze.
Problem discovered and initial patch by Olaf Kirch:

	there's a problem with IPsec that has been bugging some of our users
	for the last couple of kernel revs. Every now and then, IPsec will
	freeze the machine completely. This is with openswan user land,
	and with kernels up to and including 2.6.16-rc2.

	I managed to debug this a little, and what happens is that we end
	up looping in xfrm_lookup, and never get out. With a bit of debug
	printks added, I can this happening:

		ip_route_output_flow calls xfrm_lookup

		xfrm_find_bundle returns NULL (apparently we're in the
			middle of negotiating a new SA or something)

		We therefore call xfrm_tmpl_resolve. This returns EAGAIN
			We go to sleep, waiting for a policy update.
			Then we loop back to the top

		Apparently, the dst_orig that was passed into xfrm_lookup
			has been dropped from the routing table (obsolete=2)
			This leads to the endless loop, because we now create
			a new bundle, check the new bundle and find it's stale
			(stale_bundle -> xfrm_bundle_ok -> dst_check() return 0)

	People have been testing with the patch below, which seems to fix the
	problem partially. They still see connection hangs however (things
	only clear up when they start a new ping or new ssh). So the patch
	is obvsiouly not sufficient, and something else seems to go wrong.

	I'm grateful for any hints you may have...

I suggest that we simply bail out always.  If the dst decides to die
on us later on, the packet will be dropped anyway.  So there is no
great urgency to retry here.  Once we have the proper resolution
queueing, we can then do the retry again.

a70ea994a0 [NETLINK]: Fix a severe bug
netlink overrun was broken while improvement of netlink.
Destination socket is used in the place where it was meant to be source socket,
so that now overrun is never sent to user netlink sockets, when it should be,
and it even can be set on kernel socket, which results in complete deadlock
of rtnetlink.

Suggested fix is to restore status quo passing source socket as additional
argument to netlink_attachskb().

A little explanation: overrun is set on a socket, when it failed
to receive some message and sender of this messages does not or even
have no way to handle this error. This happens in two cases:
1. when kernel sends something. Kernel never retransmits and cannot
   wait for buffer space.
2. when user sends a broadcast and the message was not delivered
   to some recipients.

9908104935 [IPV6]: Address autoconfiguration does not work after device down/up cycle
If you set network interface down and up again, the IPv6 address
autoconfiguration does not work. 'ip addr' shows that the link-local
address is in tentative state. We don't even react to periodical router
advertisements.

During NETDEV_DOWN we clear IF_READY, and we don't set it back in
NETDEV_UP. While starting to perform DAD on the link-local address, we
notice that the device is not in IF_READY, and we abort autoconfiguration
process (which would eventually send router solicitations).

88a2a4ac6b [PATCH] percpu data: only iterate over possible CPUs
percpu_data blindly allocates bootmem memory to store NR_CPUS instances of
cpudata, instead of allocating memory only for possible cpus.

As a preparation for changing that, we need to convert various 0 -> NR_CPUS

(The above only applies to users of asm-generic/percpu.h.  powerpc has gone it
alone and is presently only allocating memory for present CPUs, so it's
currently corrupting memory).

ee4bb818ae [NETFILTER]: Fix possible overflow in netfilters do_replace()
netfilter's do_replace() can overflow on addition within SMP_ALIGN()
and/or on multiplication by NR_CPUS, resulting in a buffer overflow on
the copy_from_user().  In practice, the overflow on addition is
triggerable on all systems, whereas the multiplication one might require
much physical memory to be present due to the check above.  Either is
sufficient to overwrite arbitrary amounts of kernel memory.

I really hate adding the same check to all 4 versions of do_replace(),
but the code is duplicate...

OK this is definitely broken.  We should never touch the dst lock in
softirq context.  Since inet6_destroy_sock may be called from that
context due to the asynchronous nature of sockets, we can't take the
lock there.

In fact this sk_dst_reset is totally redundant since all IPv6 sockets
use inet_sock_destruct as their socket destructor which always cleans
up the dst anyway.  So the solution is to simply remove the call.

4641e7a334 [IPV6]: Don't hold extra ref count in ipv6_ifa_notify
Currently the logic in ipv6_ifa_notify is to hold an extra reference
count for addrconf dst's that get added to the routing table.  Thus,
when addrconf dst entries are taken out of the routing table, we need
to drop that dst.  However, addrconf dst entries may be removed from
the routing table by means other than __ipv6_ifa_notify.

So we're faced with the choice of either fixing up all places where
addrconf dst entries are removed, or dropping the extra reference count
altogether.

I chose the latter because the ifp itself always holds a dst reference
count of 1 while it's alive.  This is dropped just before we kfree the
ifp object.  Therefore we know that in __ipv6_ifa_notify we will always
hold that count.

This bug was found by Eric W. Biederman.

42c5e15f18 [NET] snap: needs hardware checksum fix
The SNAP code pops off it's 5 byte header, but doesn't adjust
the checksum. This would cause problems when using device that
does IP over SNAP and hardware receive checksums.

fba3bad488 SUNRPC: Move upcall out of auth->au_ops->crcreate()
This fixes a bug whereby if two processes try to look up the same auth_gss
 credential, they may end up creating two creds, and triggering two upcalls
 because the upcall is performed before the credential is added to the
 credcache.
