6f4c618ddb SCTP : Add paramters validity check for ASCONF chunk
If ADDIP is enabled, when an ASCONF chunk is received with ASCONF
paramter length set to zero, this will cause infinite loop.
By the way, if an malformed ASCONF chunk is received, will cause
processing to access memory without verifying.

This is because of not check the validity of parameters in ASCONF chunk.
This patch fixed this.

3c77f961b5 SCTP: Discard OOTB packetes with bundled INIT early.
RFC 4460 and future RFC 4960 (2960-bis) specify that packets
with bundled INIT chunks need to be dropped.  We currenlty do
that only after processing any leading chunks.  For OOTB chunks,
since we already walk the entire packet, we should discard packets
with bundled INITs.

There are other chunks chunks that MUST NOT be bundled, but the spec
is silent on theire treatment.  Thus, we'll leave their teatment
alone for the moment.

ece25dfa09 SCTP: Clean up OOTB handling and fix infinite loop processing
While processing OOTB chunks as well as chunks with an invalid
length of 0, it was possible to SCTP to get wedged inside an
infinite loop because we didn't catch the condition correctly,
or didn't mark the packet for discard correctly.

d3f259687f SCTP: Explicitely discard OOTB chunks
Explicitely discard OOTB chunks, whether the result is a
SHUTDOWN COMPLETE or an ABORT.  We need to discard the OOTB
SHUTDOWN ACK to prevent bombing attackes since responsed
MUST NOT be bundled.  We also explicietely discard in the
ABORT case since that function is widely used internally.

02c4e12c64 SCTP: Send ABORT chunk with correct tag in response to INIT ACK
When SCTP client received an INIT ACK chunk with missing mandatory
parameter such as "cookie parameter", it will send back a ABORT
with T-bit not set and verification tag is set to 0.
This is because before we accept this INIT ACK chunk, we do not know
the peer's tag.  This patch change to reflect vtag when responding to
INIT ACK with missing mandatory parameter.

a09c83847b SCTP: Validate buffer room when processing sequential chunks
When we process bundled chunks, we need to make sure that
the skb has the buffer for each header since we assume it's
always there.  Some malicious node can send us something like
DATA + 2 bytes and we'll try to walk off the end refrencing
potentially uninitialized memory.

efe870f9f4 [PATCH] softmac: Fix inability to associate with WEP networks
Commit 4cf92a3c was submitted as a fix for bug #8686 at bugzilla.kernel.org
(http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8686). Unfortunately, the fix led to
a new bug, reported by Yoshifuji Hideaki, that prevented association for WEP
encrypted networks that use ifconfig to control the device. This patch effectively
reverts the earlier commit and does a proper fix for bug #8686.

9db619e665 rpc: fix garbage in printk in svc_tcp_accept()
we upgraded the kernel of a nfs-server from 2.6.17.11 to 2.6.22.6. Since
then we get the message

lockd: too many open TCP sockets, consider increasing the number of nfsd threads
lockd: last TCP connect from ^\\236^\É^D

These random characters in the second line are caused by a bug in
svc_tcp_accept.

(Note: there are two previous __svc_print_addr(sin, buf, sizeof(buf))
calls in this function, either of which would initialize buf correctly;
but both are inside "if"'s and are not necessarily executed.  This is
less obvious in the second case, which is inside a dprintk(), which is a
macro which expands to an if statement.)

29c5d4afba [NETFILTER]: nfnetlink_log: fix sending of multipart messages
The following patch fixes the handling of netlink packets containing
multiple messages.

As exposed during netfilter workshop, nfnetlink_log was overwritten the
message type of the last message (setting it to MSG_DONE) in a multipart
packet. The consequence was libnfnetlink to ignore the last message in the
packet.

The following patch adds a supplementary message (with type MSG_DONE) af
the end of the netlink skb.

559cf710b0 [SCTP]: Convert bind_addr_list locking to RCU
Since the sctp_sockaddr_entry is now RCU enabled as part of
the patch to synchronize sctp_localaddr_list, it makes sense to
change all handling of these entries to RCU.  This includes the
sctp_bind_addrs structure and it's list of bound addresses.

This list is currently protected by an external rw_lock and that
looks like an overkill.  There are only 2 writers to the list:
bind()/bindx() calls, and BH processing of ASCONF-ACK chunks.
These are already seriealized via the socket lock, so they will
not step on each other.  These are also relatively rare, so we
should be good with RCU.

The readers are varied and they are easily converted to RCU.

4878809f71 [NET]: Fix two issues wrt. SO_BINDTODEVICE.
1) Comments suggest that setting optlen to zero will unbind
   the socket from whatever device it might be attached to.  This
   hasn't been the case since at least 2.2.x because the first thing
   this function does is return -EINVAL if 'optlen' is less than
   sizeof(int).

   This check also means that passing in a two byte string doesn't
   work so well.  It's almost as if this code was testing with "eth?"
   patterned strings and nothing else :-)

   Fix this by breaking the logic of this facility out into a
   seperate function which validates optlen more appropriately.

   The optlen==0 and small string cases now work properly.

2) We should reset the cached route of the socket after we have made
   the device binding changes, not before.

Commit aaf68cfbf2 added a bias
to sk_inuse, so this test for an unused socket now fails.  So no
sockets get closed because they are old (they might get closed
if the client closed them).

This bug has existed since 2.6.21-rc1.

e1f52208bb [IPv6]: Fix NULL pointer dereference in ip6_flush_pending_frames
Some of skbs in sk->write_queue do not have skb->dst because
we do not fill skb->dst when we allocate new skb in append_data().

BTW, I think we may not need to (or we should not) increment some stats
when using corking; if 100 sendmsg() (with MSG_MORE) result in 2 packets,
how many should we increment?

If 100, we should set skb->dst for every queued skbs.

If 1 (or 2 (*)), we increment the stats for the first queued skb and
we should just skip incrementing OutDiscards for the rest of queued skbs,
adn we should also impelement this semantics in other places;
e.g., we should increment other stats just once, not 100 times.

*: depends on the place we are discarding the datagram.

I guess should just increment by 1 (or 2).

16fcec35e7 [NETFILTER]: Fix/improve deadlock condition on module removal netfilter
So I've had a deadlock reported to me.  I've found that the sequence of
events goes like this:

1) process A (modprobe) runs to remove ip_tables.ko

2) process B (iptables-restore) runs and calls setsockopt on a netfilter socket,
increasing the ip_tables socket_ops use count

3) process A acquires a file lock on the file ip_tables.ko, calls remove_module
in the kernel, which in turn executes the ip_tables module cleanup routine,
which calls nf_unregister_sockopt

4) nf_unregister_sockopt, seeing that the use count is non-zero, puts the
calling process into uninterruptible sleep, expecting the process using the
socket option code to wake it up when it exits the kernel

4) the user of the socket option code (process B) in do_ipt_get_ctl, calls
ipt_find_table_lock, which in this case calls request_module to load
ip_tables_nat.ko

5) request_module forks a copy of modprobe (process C) to load the module and
blocks until modprobe exits.

6) Process C. forked by request_module process the dependencies of
ip_tables_nat.ko, of which ip_tables.ko is one.

7) Process C attempts to lock the request module and all its dependencies, it
blocks when it attempts to lock ip_tables.ko (which was previously locked in
step 3)

Theres not really any great permanent solution to this that I can see, but I've
developed a two part solution that corrects the problem

Part 1) Modifies the nf_sockopt registration code so that, instead of using a
use counter internal to the nf_sockopt_ops structure, we instead use a pointer
to the registering modules owner to do module reference counting when nf_sockopt
calls a modules set/get routine.  This prevents the deadlock by preventing set 4
from happening.

Part 2) Enhances the modprobe utilty so that by default it preforms non-blocking
remove operations (the same way rmmod does), and add an option to explicity
request blocking operation.  So if you select blocking operation in modprobe you
can still cause the above deadlock, but only if you explicity try (and since
root can do any old stupid thing it would like....  :)  ).

596e415095 [IPV4] devinet: show all addresses assigned to interface
Bug: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8876

Not all ips are shown by "ip addr show" command when IPs number assigned to an
interface is more than 60-80 (in fact it depends on broadcast/label etc
presence on each address).

Steps to reproduce:
It's terribly simple to reproduce:

# for i in $(seq 1 100); do ip ad add 10.0.$i.1/24 dev eth10 ; done
# ip addr show

this will _not_ show all IPs.
Looks like the problem is in netlink/ipv4 message processing.

This is fix from bug submitter, it looks correct.

ef8aef55ce [NET]: Do not dereference iov if length is zero
When msg_iovlen is zero we shouldn't try to dereference
msg_iov.  Right now the only thing that tries to do so
is skb_copy_and_csum_datagram_iovec.  Since the total
length should also be zero if msg_iovlen is zero, it's
sufficient to check the total length there and simply
return if it's zero.

dbaaa07a60 [NET_SCHED] sch_prio.c: remove duplicate call of tc_classify()
When CONFIG_NET_CLS_ACT is enabled, tc_classify() is called twice in
prio_classify(). This causes "interesting" behaviour: with the setup
below, packets are duplicated, sent twice to ifb0, and then loop in and
out of ifb0.

The patch uses the previously calculated return value in the switch,
which is probably what Patrick had in mind in commit
bdba91ec70 -- maybe Patrick can
double-check this?

-- example setup --
ifconfig ifb0 up
tc qdisc add dev ifb0 root netem delay 2s
tc qdisc add dev $ETH root handle 1: prio
tc filter add dev $ETH parent 1: protocol ip prio 10 u32 \
