4d900f9df5 netfilter: xt_rateest: fix comparison with self
As noticed by Török Edwin <edwintorok@gmail.com>:

Compiling the kernel with clang has shown this warning:

net/netfilter/xt_rateest.c:69:16: warning: self-comparison always results in a
constant value
                        ret &= pps2 == pps2;
                                    ^
Looking at the code:
if (info->flags & XT_RATEEST_MATCH_BPS)
            ret &= bps1 == bps2;
        if (info->flags & XT_RATEEST_MATCH_PPS)
            ret &= pps2 == pps2;

Judging from the MATCH_BPS case it seems to be a typo, with the intention of
comparing pps1 with pps2.

8d8890b775 netfilter: nf_conntrack: fix conntrack lookup race
The RCU protected conntrack hash lookup only checks whether the entry
has a refcount of zero to decide whether it is stale. This is not
sufficient, entries are explicitly removed while there is at least
one reference left, possibly more. Explicitly check whether the entry
has been marked as dying to fix this.

5c8ec910e7 netfilter: nf_conntrack: fix confirmation race condition
New connection tracking entries are inserted into the hash before they
are fully set up, namely the CONFIRMED bit is not set and the timer not
started yet. This can theoretically lead to a race with timer, which
would set the timeout value to a relative value, most likely already in
the past.

Perform hash insertion as the final step to fix this.

8cc20198cf netfilter: nf_conntrack: death_by_timeout() fix
death_by_timeout() might delete a conntrack from hash list
and insert it in dying list.

 nf_ct_delete_from_lists(ct);
 nf_ct_insert_dying_list(ct);

I believe a (lockless) reader could *catch* ct while doing a lookup
and miss the end of its chain.
(nulls lookup algo must check the null value at the end of lookup and
should restart if the null value is not the expected one.
cf Documentation/RCU/rculist_nulls.txt for details)

We need to change nf_conntrack_init_net() and use a different "null" value,
guaranteed not being used in regular lists. Choose very large values, since
hash table uses [0..size-1] null values.

73e42897e8 ipv4: fix NULL pointer + success return in route lookup path
Don't drop route if we're not caching	

	I recently got a report of an oops on a route lookup.  Maxime was
testing what would happen if route caching was turned off (doing so by setting
making rt_caching always return 0), and found that it triggered an oops.  I
looked at it and found that the problem stemmed from the fact that the route
lookup routines were returning success from their lookup paths (which is good),
but never set the **rp pointer to anything (which is bad).  This happens because
in rt_intern_hash, if rt_caching returns false, we call rt_drop and return 0.
This almost emulates slient success.  What we should be doing is assigning *rp =
rt and _not_ dropping the route.  This way, during slow path lookups, when we
create a new route cache entry, we don't immediately discard it, rather we just
don't add it into the cache hash table, but we let this one lookup use it for
the purpose of this route request.  Maxime has tested and reports it prevents
the oops.  There is still a subsequent routing issue that I'm looking into
further, but I'm confident that, even if its related to this same path, this
patch makes sense to take.

464902e812 rfkill: export persistent attribute in sysfs
This information allows userspace to implement a hybrid policy where
it can store the rfkill soft-blocked state in platform non-volatile
storage if available, and if not then file-based storage can be used.

Some users prefer platform non-volatile storage because of the behaviour
when dual-booting multiple versions of Linux, or if the rfkill setting
is changed in the BIOS setting screens, or if the BIOS responds to
wireless-toggle hotkeys itself before the relevant platform driver has
been loaded.

96e9cfeb96 eeepc-laptop: read rfkill soft-blocked state on resume
This will respect state changes over hibernation, e.g. if the user
disables the wireless in the BIOS setup screen.

It reveals an issue where ACPI silently kills the wireless on
suspend.  Normally, the BIOS restores the correct state from
non-volatile storage on boot.  But when hibernation is aborted,
the wireless would remain killed.  Fortunately we can work around
this in the resume handler by simply writing back the same value we
read from NVS.

06d5caf47e rfkill: don't restore software blocked state on persistent devices
The setting of the "persistent" flag is also made more explicit using
a new rfkill_init_sw_state() function, instead of special-casing
rfkill_set_sw_state() when it is called before registration.

Suspend is a bit of a corner case so we try to get away without adding
another hack to rfkill-input - it's going to be removed soon.
If the state does change over suspend, users will simply have to prod
rfkill-input twice in order to toggle the state.

Userspace policy agents will be able to implement a more consistent user
experience.  For example, they can avoid the above problem if they
toggle devices individually.  Then there would be no "global state"
to get out of sync.

Currently there are only two rfkill drivers with persistent soft-blocked
state.  thinkpad-acpi already checks the software state on resume.
eeepc-laptop will require modification.

7fa20a7f60 rfkill: rfkill_set_block() when suspended nitpick
If we return after fiddling with the state, userspace will see the
wrong state and rfkill_set_sw_state() won't work until the next call to
rfkill_set_block().  At the moment rfkill_set_block() will always be
called from rfkill_resume(), but this will change in future.

Also, presumably the point of this test is to avoid bothering devices
which may be suspended.  If we don't want to call set_block(), we
probably don't want to call query() either :-).

f0214843ba ath9k: Fix PCI FATAL interrupts by restoring RETRY_TIMEOUT disabling
An earlier commit, 'ath9k: remove dummy PCI "retry timeout" fix', removed
code that was documented to disable RETRY_TIMEOUT register (PCI reg
0x41) since it was claimed to be a no-op. However, it turns out that
there are some combinations of hosts and ath9k-supported cards for
which this is not a no-op (reg 0x41 has value 0x80, not 0) and this
code (or something similar) is needed. In such cases, the driver may
be next to unusable due to very frequent PCI FATAL interrupts from the
card.

Reverting the earlier commit, i.e., restoring the RETRY_TIMEOUT
disabling, seems to resolve the issue. Since the removal of this code
was not based on any known issue and was purely a cleanup change, the
safest option here is to just revert that commit. Should there be
desire to clean this up in the future, the change will need to be
tested with a more complete coverage of cards and host systems.

6877f54e6a mv643xx_eth: fix unicast filter programming in promiscuous mode
The Unicast Promiscious Mode (UPM) bit in the mv643xx_eth port
configuration register doesn't do exactly what its name would suggest:
setting this bit merely enables reception of all unicast frames with a
destination address that differs from our local MAC address in bits
[47:4].  In particular, it doesn't have any effect on unicast frames
with a destination address that matches our MAC address in bits [47:4]
-- these will still be tested against the 16-entry unicast address
filter table.

Therefore, if the interface is set to promiscuous mode, just setting
the unicast promiscuous bit isn't enough -- we need to set all filter
bits in the unicast filter table to 1 as well.

679e8a0f0a e1000e: stop unnecessary polling when using msi-x
The last hunk of this commit:

    commit 12d04a3c12
    Author: Alexander Duyck <alexander.h.duyck@intel.com>
    Date:   Wed Mar 25 22:05:03 2009 +0000

        e1000e: commonize tx cleanup routine to match e1000 & igb

changed the logic for determining if we should call napi_complete or
not at then end of a napi poll.

If the NIC is using MSI-X with no work to do in ->poll, net_rx_action
can just spin indefinitely on older kernels and for 2 jiffies on newer
kernels since napi_complete is never called and budget isn't
decremented.

Discovered and verified while testing driver backport to an older
kernel.

6ac7b687cb be2net: Use MCC queue for cmds that may be called in BH context
Currenlty multicast_set and promiscuous_config cmds -- that may be called in BH context --
use the blocking MCC mbox to post cmds.
An mbox cmd is protected via a spin_lock(cmd_lock) and not spin_lock_bh() as it is undesirable
to disable BHs while a blocking mbox cmd is in progress (and take long to finish.)
This can lockup a cmd in progress in process context.
So, these two cmds in BH context must use the MCC queue to post cmds.

5fb379ee67 be2net: Add MCC queue mechanism for BE cmds
Currenlty all cmds use the blocking MCC mbox to post cmds. An mbox cmd is protected
via a spin_lock(cmd_lock) and not spin_lock_bh() as it is undesirable
to disable BHs while a blocking mbox cmd is in progress (and take long to finish.)
This can lockup a cmd in progress in process context. Instead cmds that may be
called in BH context must use the MCC queue to post cmds. The cmd completions
are rcvd in a separate completion queue and the events are placed in the tx-event
queue.
