29fe1b4812 netfilter: ctnetlink: fix gcc warning during compilation
This patch fixes a (bogus?) gcc warning during compilation:

net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_netlink.c🔢 warning: 'helpname' may be used uninitialized in this function
net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_netlink.c:991: warning: 'helpname' may be used uninitialized in this function

In fact, helpname is initialized by ctnetlink_parse_help() so
I cannot see a way to use it without being initialized.

50b2ff1bc4 netlabel: Always remove the correct address selector
The NetLabel address selector mechanism has a problem where it can get
mistakenly remove the wrong selector when similar addresses are used.  The
problem is caused when multiple addresses are configured that have different
netmasks but the same address, e.g. 127.0.0.0/8 and 127.0.0.0/24.  This patch
fixes the problem.

3fa6b5adbe af_iucv: Fix race when queuing incoming iucv messages
AF_IUCV runs into a race when queuing incoming iucv messages
and receiving the resulting backlog.

If the Linux system is under pressure (high load or steal time),
the message queue grows up, but messages are not received and queued
onto the backlog queue. In that case, applications do not
receive any data with recvmsg() even if AF_IUCV puts incoming
messages onto the message queue.

The race can be avoided if the message queue spinlock in the
message_pending callback is spreaded across the entire callback
function.

60d3705fcb af_iucv: fix oops in iucv_sock_recvmsg() for MSG_PEEK flag
If iucv_sock_recvmsg() is called with MSG_PEEK flag set, the skb is enqueued
twice. If the socket is then closed, the pointer to the skb is freed twice.

Remove the skb_queue_head() call for MSG_PEEK, because the skb_recv_datagram()
function already handles MSG_PEEK (does not dequeue the skb).

9b8de7479d FRV: Fix the section attribute on UP DECLARE_PER_CPU()
In non-SMP mode, the variable section attribute specified by DECLARE_PER_CPU()
does not agree with that specified by DEFINE_PER_CPU().  This means that
architectures that have a small data section references relative to a base
register may throw up linkage errors due to too great a displacement between
where the base register points and the per-CPU variable.

On FRV, the .h declaration says that the variable is in the .sdata section, but
the .c definition says it's actually in the .data section.  The linker throws
up the following errors:

kernel/built-in.o: In function `release_task':
kernel/exit.c:78: relocation truncated to fit: R_FRV_GPREL12 against symbol `per_cpu__process_counts' defined in .data section in kernel/built-in.o
kernel/exit.c:78: relocation truncated to fit: R_FRV_GPREL12 against symbol `per_cpu__process_counts' defined in .data section in kernel/built-in.o

To fix this, DECLARE_PER_CPU() should simply apply the same section attribute
as does DEFINE_PER_CPU().  However, this is made slightly more complex by
virtue of the fact that there are several variants on DEFINE, so these need to
be matched by variants on DECLARE.

8caf153974 net: sch_netem: Fix an inconsistency in ingress netem timestamps.
Alex Sidorenko reported:

"while experimenting with 'netem' we have found some strange behaviour. It
seemed that ingress delay as measured by 'ping' command shows up on some
hosts but not on others.

After some investigation I have found that the problem is that skbuff->tstamp
field value depends on whether there are any packet sniffers enabled. That
is:

- if any ptype_all handler is registered, the tstamp field is as expected
- if there are no ptype_all handlers, the tstamp field does not show the delay"

This patch prevents unnecessary update of tstamp in dev_queue_xmit_nit()
on ingress path (with act_mirred) adding a check, so minimal overhead on
the fast path, but only when sniffers etc. are active.

Since netem at ingress seems to logically emulate a network before a host,
tstamp is zeroed to trigger the update and pretend delays are from the
outside.

9499237a1c Bluetooth: Add workaround for wrong HCI event in eSCO setup
The Broadcom chips with 2.1 firmware handle the fallback case to a SCO
link wrongly when setting up eSCO connections.

  < HCI Command: Setup Synchronous Connection (0x01|0x0028) plen 17
      handle 11 voice setting 0x0060
  > HCI Event: Command Status (0x0f) plen 4
      Setup Synchronous Connection (0x01|0x0028) status 0x00 ncmd 1
  > HCI Event: Connect Complete (0x03) plen 11
      status 0x00 handle 1 bdaddr 00:1E:3A:xx:xx:xx type SCO encrypt 0x01

The Link Manager negotiates the fallback to SCO, but then sends out
a Connect Complete event. This is wrong and the Link Manager should
actually send a Synchronous Connection Complete event if the Setup
Synchronous Connection has been used. Only the remote side is allowed
to use Connect Complete to indicate the missing support for eSCO in
the host stack.

This patch adds a workaround for this which clearly should not be
needed, but reality is that broken Broadcom devices are deployed.

732547f96e Bluetooth: Fallback from eSCO to SCO on unspecified error
Some Bluetooth chips (like the ones from Texas Instruments) don't do
proper eSCO negotiations inside the Link Manager. They just return an
error code and in case of the Kyocera ED-8800 headset it is just a
random error.

  < HCI Command: Setup Synchronous Connection 0x01|0x0028) plen 17
    handle 1 voice setting 0x0060
  > HCI Event: Command Status (0x0f) plen 4
    Setup Synchronous Connection (0x01|0x0028) status 0x00 ncmd 1
  > HCI Event: Synchronous Connect Complete (0x2c) plen 17
    status 0x1f handle 257 bdaddr 00:14:0A:xx:xx:xx type eSCO
    Error: Unspecified Error

In these cases it is up to the host stack to fallback to a SCO setup
and so retry with SCO parameters.

The removal of the SAME target accidentally removed one feature that is
not available from the normal NAT targets so far, having multi-range
mappings that use the same mapping for each connection from a single
client. The current behaviour is to choose the address from the range
based on source and destination IP, which breaks when communicating
with sites having multiple addresses that require all connections to
originate from the same IP address.

Introduce a IP_NAT_RANGE_PERSISTENT option that controls whether the
destination address is taken into account for selecting addresses.

47afbaf5af mac80211: correct wext transmit power handler
Wext makes no assumptions about the contents of
data->txpower.fixed and data->txpower.value when
data->txpower.disabled is set, so do not update
the user-requested power level while disabling.

Also, when wext configures a really _fixed_ power
output [1], we should reject it instead of limiting it
to the regulatory constraint. If the user wants to set
a _limit_ [2] then we should honour that.

[1] iwconfig wlan0 txpower 20dBm fixed
[2] iwconfig wlan0 txpower 10dBm

b3631286ac mac80211: Fix bug in getting rx status for frames pending in reorder buffer
Currently rx status for frames which are completed from reorder buffer
is taken from it's cb area which is not always right, cb is not holding
the rx status when driver uses mac80211's non-irq rx handler to pass it's
received frames. This results in dropping almost all frames from reorder
buffer when security is enabled by doing double decryption (first in hw,
second in sw because of wrong rx status). This patch copies rx status into
cb area before the frame is put into reorder buffer. After this patch,
there is a significant improvement in throughput with ath9k + WPA2(AES).

0ad8acaf43 cfg80211: fix NULL pointer deference in reg_device_remove()
We won't ever get here as regulatory_hint_core() can only fail
on -ENOMEM and in that case we don't initialize cfg80211 but this is
technically correct code.

This is actually good for stable, where we don't check for -ENOMEM
failure on __regulatory_hint()'s failure.

b6f0a3652e netfilter: nf_log regression fix
commit ca735b3aaa
'netfilter: use a linked list of loggers'
introduced an array of list_head in "struct nf_logger", but
forgot to initialize it in nf_log_register(). This resulted
in oops when calling nf_log_unregister() at module unload time.

6fd4777a1f Revert "rose: zero length frame filtering in af_rose.c"
This reverts commit 244f46ae6e.

Alan Cox did the research, and just like the other radio protocols
zero-length frames have meaning because at the top level ROSE is
X.25 PLP.

So this zero-length filtering is invalid.

Since everybody has been focusing on baremetal GRO performance
no one noticed when I added a bug that zapped gso_size for all

out of an interface.

After switch (rthdr->type) {...},the check below is completely useless.Because:
if the type is 2,then hdrlen must be 2 and segments_left must be 1,clearly the
check is redundant;if the type is not 2,then goto sticky_done,the check is useless
too.
