0668b47205 [IPV4]: Fix SNMPv2 "ipFragFails" counter error
When I tested Linux kernel 2.6.17.7 about statistics
"ipFragFails",found that this counter couldn't increase correctly. The
criteria is RFC2011:
RFC2011
  ipFragFails OBJECT-TYPE
    SYNTAX      Counter32
    MAX-ACCESS  read-only
    STATUS      current
    DESCRIPTION
            "The number of IP datagrams that have been discarded because
            they needed to be fragmented at this entity but could not
            be, e.g., because their Don't Fragment flag was set."
    ::= { ip 18 }

When I send big IP packet to a router with DF bit set to 1 which need to
be fragmented, and router just sends an ICMP error message
ICMP_FRAG_NEEDED but no increments for this counter(in the function
ip_fragment).

57f5f544f5 [IPV6]: ipv6_add_addr should install dstentry earlier
ipv6_add_addr allocates a struct inet6_ifaddr and a dstentry, but it
doesn't install the dstentry in ifa->rt until after it releases the
addrconf_hash_lock. This means other CPUs will be able to see the new
address while it hasn't been initialized completely yet.

One possible fix would be to grab the ifp->lock spinlock when
creating the address struct; a simpler fix is to just move the
assignment.

76d0cc1b64 [IPV6]: SNMPv2 "ipv6IfStatsInAddrErrors" counter error
When I tested Linux kernel 2.6.17.7 about statistics

 ipv6IfStatsInAddrErrors OBJECT-TYPE
      SYNTAX      Counter32

      DESCRIPTION
         "The number of input datagrams discarded because
         the IPv6 address in their IPv6 header's destination
         field was not a valid address to be received at

5a65694971 [PATCH] ieee80211: Fix TKIP and WEP decryption error on SMP machines
The IEEE80211 TKIP and WEP Tx and Rx paths use the same crypto_tfm to encrypt
and decrypt data. During the encrypt and decrypt process, both of them will
set a new key to crypto_tfm. If they happen on the same time, it will
corrupt the crypto_tfm. Thus users will receive an ICV error or Michael MIC
error. This only likely to happen on SMP box with heavy traffic both on Tx
and Rx. The patch use two sets of crypto_tfms to avoid this problem.

66a377c504 [DCCP]: Fix CCID3
This fixes CCID3 to give much closer performance to RFC4342.

CCID3 is meant to alter sending rate based on RTT and loss.

The performance was verified against:
http://wand.net.nz/~perry/max_download.php

For example I tested with netem and had the following parameters:
Delayed Acks 1, MSS 256 bytes, RTT 105 ms, packet loss 5%.

This gives a theoretical speed of 71.9 Kbits/s. I measured across three
runs with this patch set and got 70.1 Kbits/s. Without this patchset the
average was 232 Kbits/s which means Linux can't be used for CCID3 research
properly.

I also tested with netem turned off so box just acting as router with 1.2
msec RTT. The performance with this is the same with or without the patch
at around 30 Mbit/s.

59eed279c5 [IPV6]: Segmentation offload not set correctly on TCP children
TCP over IPV6 would incorrectly inherit the GSO settings.
This would cause kernel to send Tcp Segmentation Offload packets for

e8896495bc NFS: Check lengths more thoroughly in NFS4 readdir XDR decode
Check the bounds of length specifiers more thoroughly in the XDR decoding of
NFS4 readdir reply data.

Currently, if the server returns a bitmap or attr length that causes the
current decode point pointer to wrap, this could go undetected (consider a
small "negative" length on a 32-bit machine).

Also add a check into the main XDR decode handler to make sure that the amount
of data is a multiple of four bytes (as specified by RFC-1014).  This makes
sure that we can do u32* pointer subtraction in the NFS client without risking
an undefined result (the result is undefined if the pointers are not correctly
aligned with respect to one another).

e9fa4f7bd2 [INET]: Use pskb_trim_unique when trimming paged unique skbs
The IPv4/IPv6 datagram output path was using skb_trim to trim paged
packets because they know that the packet has not been cloned yet
(since the packet hasn't been given to anything else in the system).

This broke because skb_trim no longer allows paged packets to be
trimmed.  Paged packets must be given to one of the pskb_trim functions
instead.

This patch adds a new pskb_trim_unique function to cover the IPv4/IPv6
datagram output path scenario and replaces the corresponding skb_trim
calls with it.
