6c00055a81 tipc: Don't use structure names which easily globally conflict.
Andrew Morton reported a build failure on sparc32, because TIPC
uses names like "struct node" and there is a like named data
structure defined in linux/node.h

This just regexp replaces "struct node*" to "struct tipc_node*"
to avoid this and any future similar problems.

37b08e34a9 ipsec: Fix deadlock in xfrm_state management.
Ever since commit 4c563f7669
("[XFRM]: Speed up xfrm_policy and xfrm_state walking") it is
illegal to call __xfrm_state_destroy (and thus xfrm_state_put())
with xfrm_state_lock held.  If we do, we'll deadlock since we
have the lock already and __xfrm_state_destroy() tries to take
it again.

Fix this by pushing the xfrm_state_put() calls after the lock
is dropped.

Re-enable IP when the MTU gets back to a valid size. 

This patch just checks if the in_dev is NULL on a NETDEV_CHANGEMTU event
and if MTU is valid (bigger than 68), then re-enable in_dev. 

Also a function that checks valid MTU size was created.

2b58b20939 mac80211: Fix debugfs union misuse and pointer corruption
debugfs union in struct ieee80211_sub_if_data is misused by including a
common default_key dentry as a union member. This ends occupying the same
memory area with the first dentry in other union members (structures;
usually drop_unencrypted). Consequently, debugfs operations on
default_key symlinks and drop_unencrypted entry are using the same
dentry pointer even though they are supposed to be separate ones. This
can lead to removing entries incorrectly or potentially leaving
something behind since one of the dentry pointers gets lost.

Fix this by moving the default_key dentry to a new struct
(common_debugfs) that contains dentries (more to be added in future)
that are shared by all vif types. The debugfs union must only be used
for vif type-specific entries to avoid this type of pointer corruption.

David Wagner added (among other things) that copy_to_user could be
probably used here.

Ingo Oeser suggested to use simple_read_from_buffer() here.

The conclusion is that proc_do_xprt doesn't check for userside buffer
size indeed so fix this by using Ingo's suggestion.

Use qdisc_root_sleeping_lock() instead of qdisc_root_lock() where
appropriate. The only difference is while dev is deactivated, when
currently we can use a sleeping qdisc with the lock of noop_qdisc.
This shouldn't be dangerous since after deactivation root lock could
be used only by gen_estimator code, but looks wrong anyway.

8ab65b03b7 mac80211: don't send empty extended rates IE
The association request includes a list of supported data rates.

802.11b: 4 supported rates.
802.11g: 12 (8 + 4) supported rates.
802.11a: 8 supported rates.

The rates tag of the assoc request has room for only 8 rates. In case of
802.11g an extended rate tag is appended. However in net/wireless/mlme.c
an extended (empty) rate tag is also appended if the number of rates is
exact 8. This empty (length=0) extended rates tag causes some APs to
deny association with code 18 (unsupported rates). These APs include my
ZyXEL G-570U, and according to Tomas Winkler som Cisco APs.

'If count == 8' has been used to check for the need for an extended rates
tag. But count would also be equal to 8 if the for loop exited because of
no more supported rates. Therefore a check for count being less than
rates_len would seem more correct.

Thanks to:
 * Dan Williams for newbie guidance
 * Tomas Winkler for confirming the problem

93015f0f34 mac80211: Fix debugfs file add/del for netdev
Previous version was using incorrect union structures for non-AP
interfaces when adding and removing max_ratectrl_rateidx and
force_unicast_rateidx entries. Depending on the vif type, this ended
up in corrupting debugfs entries since the dentries inside different
union structures ended up going being on top of eachother.. As the
end result, debugfs files were being left behind with references to
freed data (instant kernel oops on access) and directories were not
removed properly when unloading mac80211 drivers. This patch fixes
those issues by using only a single union structure based on the vif
type.

087d833e5a mac80211: Use IWEVASSOCREQIE instead of IWEVCUSTOM
The previous code was using IWEVCUSTOM to report IEs from AssocReq and
AssocResp frames into user space. This can easily hit the 256 byte
limit (IW_CUSTOM_MAX) with APs that include number of vendor IEs in
AssocResp. This results in the event message not being sent and dmesg
showing "wlan0 (WE) : Wireless Event too big (366)" type of errors.

Convert mac80211 to use IWEVASSOCREQIE/IWEVASSOCRESPIE to avoid the
issue of being unable to send association IEs as wireless events. These
newer event types use binary encoding and larger maximum size
(IW_GENERIC_IE_MAX = 1024), so the likelyhood of not being able to send
the IEs is much smaller than with IWEVCUSTOM. As an extra benefit, the
code is also quite a bit simpler since there is no need to allocate an
extra buffer for hex encoding.

f410a1fba7 ipv6: protocol for address routes
This fixes a problem spotted with zebra, but not sure if it is
necessary a kernel problem.  With IPV6 when an address is added to an
interface, Zebra creates a duplicate RIB entry, one as a connected
route, and other as a kernel route.

When an address is added to an interface the RTN_NEWADDR message
causes Zebra to create a connected route. In IPV4 when an address is
added to an interface a RTN_NEWROUTE message is set to user space with
the protocol RTPROT_KERNEL. Zebra ignores these messages, because it
already has the connected route.

The problem is that route created in IPV6 has route protocol ==
RTPROT_BOOT.  Was this a design decision or a bug? This fixes it. Same
patch applies to both net-2.6 and stable.

2540e0511e pkt_sched: Fix qdisc_watchdog() vs. dev_deactivate() race
dev_deactivate() can skip rescheduling of a qdisc by qdisc_watchdog()
or other timer calling netif_schedule() after dev_queue_deactivate().
We prevent this checking aliveness before scheduling the timer. Since
during deactivation the root qdisc is available only as qdisc_sleeping
additional accessor qdisc_root_sleeping() is created.

With feedback from Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>

5e739d1752 sctp: fix potential panics in the SCTP-AUTH API.
All of the SCTP-AUTH socket options could cause a panic
if the extension is disabled and the API is envoked.

Additionally, there were some additional assumptions that
certain pointers would always be valid which may not
always be the case.

This patch hardens the API and address all of the crash
scenarios.

195648bbc5 pkt_sched: Prevent livelock in TX queue running.
If dev_deactivate() is trying to quiesce the queue, it
is theoretically possible for another cpu to livelock
trying to process that queue.  This happens because
dev_deactivate() grabs the queue spinlock as it checks
the queue state, whereas net_tx_action() does a trylock
and reschedules the qdisc if it hits the lock.

This breaks the livelock by adding a check on
__QDISC_STATE_DEACTIVATED to net_tx_action() when
the trylock fails.

Based upon feedback from Herbert Xu and Jarek Poplawski.

1575e7ea01 netfilter: ctnetlink: fix double helper assignation for NAT'ed conntracks
If we create a conntrack that has NAT handlings and a helper, the helper
is assigned twice. This happens because nf_nat_setup_info() - via
nf_conntrack_alter_reply() - sets the helper before ctnetlink, which
indeed does not check if the conntrack already has a helper as it thinks that
it is a brand new conntrack.

The fix moves the helper assignation before the set of the status flags.
This avoids a bogus assertion in __nf_ct_ext_add (if netfilter assertions are
enabled) which checks that the conntrack must not be confirmed.

This problem was introduced in 2.6.23 with the netfilter extension
infrastructure.

d28934ad8a dccp: Fix panic caused by too early termination of retransmission mechanism
Thanks is due to Wei Yongjun for the detailed analysis and description of this
bug at http://marc.info/?l=dccp&m=121739364909199&w=2

The problem is that invalid packets received by a client in state REQUEST cause
the retransmission timer for the DCCP-Request to be reset. This includes freeing
the Request-skb ( in dccp_rcv_request_sent_state_process() ). As a consequence,
 * the arrival of further packets cause a double-free, triggering a panic(),
 * the connection then may hang, since further retransmissions are blocked.

This patch changes the order of statements so that the retransmission timer is
reset, and the pending Request freed, only if a valid Response has arrived (or
the number of sysctl-retries has been exhausted).

Further changes:
----------------
To be on the safe side, replaced __kfree_skb with kfree_skb so that if due to
unexpected circumstances the sk_send_head is NULL the WARN_ON is used instead.

4d8863a29c pkt_sched: Don't hold qdisc lock over qdisc_destroy().
Based upon reports by Denys Fedoryshchenko, and feedback
and help from Jarek Poplawski and Herbert Xu.

We always either:

1) Never made an external reference to this qdisc.

or

2) Did a dev_deactivate() which purged all asynchronous
   references.

So do not lock the qdisc when we call qdisc_destroy(),
it's illegal anyways as when we drop the lock this is
free'd memory.

25bfcd5a78 pkt_sched: Add lockdep annotation for qdisc locks
Qdisc locks are initialized in the same function, qdisc_alloc(), so
lockdep can't distinguish tx qdisc lock from rx and reports "possible
recursive locking detected" when both these locks are taken eg. while
using act_mirred with ifb. This looks like a false positive. Anyway,
after this patch these locks will be reported more exactly.
