5dc306f3bd mac80211: decrement ref count to netdev after launching mesh discovery
After launching mesh discovery in tx path, reference count was not being
decremented.  This was preventing module unload.

37fe4732b9 gro: Fix merging of paged packets
The previous fix to paged packets broke the merging because it
reset the skb->len before we added it to the merged packet.  This
wasn't detected because it simply resulted in the truncation of
the packet while the missing bit is subsequently retransmitted.

The fix is to store skb->len before we clobber it.

8b9d372897 net: Fix data corruption when splicing from sockets.
The trick in socket splicing where we try to convert the skb->data
into a page based reference using virt_to_page() does not work so
well.

The idea is to pass the virt_to_page() reference via the pipe
buffer, and refcount the buffer using a SKB reference.

But if we are splicing from a socket to a socket (via sendpage)
this doesn't work.

The from side processing will grab the page (and SKB) references.
The sendpage() calls will grab page references only, return, and
then the from side processing completes and drops the SKB ref.

The page based reference to skb->data is not enough to keep the
kmalloc() buffer backing it from being reused.  Yet, that is
all that the socket send side has at this point.

This leads to data corruption if the skb->data buffer is reused
by SLAB before the send side socket actually gets the TX packet
out to the device.

The fix employed here is to simply allocate a page and copy the
skb->data bytes into that page.

This will hurt performance, but there is no clear way to fix this
properly without a copy at the present time, and it is important
to get rid of the data corruption.

With fixes from Herbert Xu.

0c7dc45d21 cfg80211: Fix regression with 11d on bands
This fixes a regression on disallowing bands introduced with the new
802.11d support. The issue is that IEEE-802.11 allows APs to send
a subset of what a country regulatory domain defines. This was clarified
in this document:

http://tinyurl.com/11d-clarification

As such it is possible, and this is what is done in practice, that a
single band 2.4 GHz AP will only send 2.4 GHz band regulatory information
through the 802.11 country information element and then the current
intersection with what CRDA provided yields a regulatory domain with
no 5 GHz information -- even though that country may actually allow
5 GHz operation. We correct this by only applying the intersection rules
on a channel if the the intersection yields a regulatory rule on the
same band the channel is on.

937f1ba56b net: Add init_dummy_netdev() and fix EMAC driver using it
This adds an init_dummy_netdev() function that gets a network device
structure (allocation and lifetime entirely under caller's control) and
initialize the minimum amount of fields so it can be used to schedule
NAPI polls without registering a full blown interface. This is to be
used by drivers that need to tie several hardware interfaces to a single
NAPI poll scheduler due to HW limitations.

It also updates the ibm_newemac driver to use that, this fixing the
oops on 2.6.29 due to passing NULL as "dev" to netif_napi_add()

f557206800 gro: Fix page ref count for skbs freed normally
When an skb with page frags is merged into an existing one, we
cannibalise its reference count.  This is OK when the skb is
reused because we set nr_frags to zero in that case.  However,
for the case where the skb is freed through kfree_skb, we didn't
clear nr_frags which causes the page to be freed prematurely.

This is fixed by moving the skb resetting into skb_gro_receive.

As GRO cannot be applied to packets with frag_list we need to
make sure that we reject such packets if they are fed to us,
e.g., through a tunnel device.

Also there is no point in applying GRO on GSO packets so they
too should be rejected.  This allows GRO to be used in virtio-net
which may produce GSO packets directly but may still benefit
from GRO if the other end of it doesn't support GSO.

33966dd0e2 tcp: splice as many packets as possible at once
As spotted by Willy Tarreau, current splice() from tcp socket to pipe is not
optimal. It processes at most one segment per call.
This results in low performance and very high overhead due to syscall rate
when splicing from interfaces which do not support LRO.

Willy provided a patch inside tcp_splice_read(), but a better fix
is to let tcp_read_sock() process as many segments as possible, so
that tcp_rcv_space_adjust() and tcp_cleanup_rbuf() are called less
often.

With this change, splice() behaves like tcp_recvmsg(), being able
to consume many skbs in one system call. With typical 1460 bytes
of payload per frame, that means splice(SPLICE_F_NONBLOCK) can return
16*1460 = 23360 bytes.

47e0e1ca13 netfilter 03/09: bridge: Disable PPPOE/VLAN processing by default
The PPPOE/VLAN processing code in the bridge netfilter is broken
by design.  The VLAN tag and the PPPOE session ID are an integral
part of the packet flow information, yet they're completely
ignored by the bridge netfilter.  This is potentially a security
hole as it treats all VLANs and PPPOE sessions as the same.

What's more, it's actually broken for PPPOE as the bridge netfilter
tries to trim the packets to the IP length without adjusting the
PPPOE header (and adjusting the PPPOE header isn't much better
since the PPPOE peer may require the padding to be present).

Therefore we should disable this by default.

It does mean that people relying on this feature may lose networking
depending on how their bridge netfilter rules are configured.
However, IMHO the problems this code causes are serious enough to
warrant this.

a2bd40ad31 netfilter 02/09: bridge: Fix handling of non-IP packets in FORWARD/POST_ROUTING
Currently the bridge FORWARD/POST_ROUTING chains treats all
non-IPv4 packets as IPv6.  This packet fixes that by returning
NF_ACCEPT on non-IP packets instead, just as is done in PRE_ROUTING.

Changing mode on an interface is not allowed if IBSS is disabled for the

d57854bb1d minstrel: fix warning if lowest supported rate index is not 0
This patch fixes the following WARNING (caused by rix_to_ndx): "

The reason is that I'm experimenting with "g" only mode on a 802.11 b/g card.

Therefore rate_lowest_index returns 4 (= 6Mbit, instead of usual 0 = 1Mbit).
Since mi->r array is initialized with zeros in minstrel_alloc_sta,
rix_to_ndx has a hard time to find the 6Mbit entry and will trigged the WARNING.

649274d993 net_dma: acquire/release dma channels on ifup/ifdown
The recent dmaengine rework removed the capability to remove dma device
driver modules while net_dma is active.  Rather than notify
dmaengine-clients that channels are trying to be removed, we now rely on
clients to notify dmaengine when they no longer have a need for
channels.  Teach net_dma to release channels by taking dmaengine
references at netdevice open and dropping references at netdevice close.

1b6725dea7 net: fix section mismatch warnings in dccp/ccids/lib/tfrc.c
Removed the __exit annotation of tfrc_lib_exit(), in order to suppress the following section mismatch messages:

WARNING: net/dccp/dccp.o(.text+0xd9): Section mismatch in reference from the function ccid_cleanup_builtins() to the function .exit.text:tfrc_lib_exit()
The function ccid_cleanup_builtins() references a function in an exit section.
Often the function tfrc_lib_exit() has valid usage outside the exit section
and the fix is to remove the __exit annotation of tfrc_lib_exit.

WARNING: net/dccp/dccp.o(.init.text+0x48): Section mismatch in reference from the function ccid_initialize_builtins() to the function .exit.text:tfrc_lib_exit()
The function __init ccid_initialize_builtins() references
a function __exit tfrc_lib_exit().
This is often seen when error handling in the init function
uses functionality in the exit path.
The fix is often to remove the __exit annotation of
tfrc_lib_exit() so it may be used outside an exit section.

When I made ipcomp use frags, I forgot to take out the original
truesize update that was added for pskb_expand_head.  As we no
longer expand the head of skb, that update should have been removed.

This bug is not related to the truesize warnings since we only
made it bigger than what it should've been.
