2e655571c6 ipv4: fib_trie: Fix lookup error return
In commit a07f5f508a "[IPV4] fib_trie: style
cleanup", the changes to check_leaf() and fn_trie_lookup() were wrong - where
fn_trie_lookup() would previously return a negative error value from
check_leaf(), it now returns 0.
 
Now fn_trie_lookup() doesn't appear to care about plen, so we can revert
check_leaf() to returning the error value.

6b69fe0c73 netfilter: nf_conntrack_tcp: fix endless loop
When a conntrack entry is destroyed in process context and destruction
is interrupted by packet processing and the packet is an attempt to
reopen a closed connection, TCP conntrack tries to kill the old entry
itself and returns NF_REPEAT to pass the packet through the hook
again. This may lead to an endless loop: TCP conntrack repeatedly
finds the old entry, but can not kill it itself since destruction
is already in progress, but destruction in process context can not
complete since TCP conntrack is keeping the CPU busy.

Drop the packet in TCP conntrack if we can't kill the connection
ourselves to avoid this.

b223856640 ipv6: fix race between ipv6_del_addr and DAD timer
Consider the following scenario:

ipv6_del_addr(ifp)
  ipv6_ifa_notify(RTM_DELADDR, ifp)
    ip6_del_rt(ifp->rt)

after returning from the ipv6_ifa_notify and enabling BH-s
back, but *before* calling the addrconf_del_timer the 
ifp->timer fires and:

addrconf_dad_timer(ifp)
  addrconf_dad_completed(ifp)
    ipv6_ifa_notify(RTM_NEWADDR, ifp)
      ip6_ins_rt(ifp->rt)

then return back to the ipv6_del_addr and:

in6_ifa_put(ifp)
  inet6_ifa_finish_destroy(ifp)
    dst_release(&ifp->rt->u.dst)

After this we have an ifp->rt inserted into fib6 lists, but 
queued for gc, which in turn can result in oopses in the
fib6_run_gc. Maybe some other nasty things, but we caught 
only the oops in gc so far.

The solution is to disarm the ifp->timer before flushing the
rt from it.

If we don't have the buffer space or memory allocations fail,
the data chunk is dropped, but TSN is still reported as received.
This introduced a data loss that can't be recovered.  We should
only mark TSNs are received after memory allocations finish.
The one exception is the invalid stream identifier, but that's
due to user error and is reported back to the user.

ea0c925370 mac80211: Only flush workqueue when last interface was removed
Currently the ieee80211_hw->workqueue is flushed each time
an interface is being removed. However most scheduled work
is not interface specific but device specific, for example things like
periodic work for link tuners.

This patch will move the flush_workqueue() call to directly behind
the call to ops->stop() to make sure the workqueue is only flushed
when all interfaces are gone and there really shouldn't be any scheduled
work in the drivers left.

ab1b20467c bridge: fix use-after-free in br_cleanup_bridges()
Unregistering a bridge device may cause virtual devices stacked on the
bridge, like vlan or macvlan devices, to be unregistered as well.
br_cleanup_bridges() uses for_each_netdev_safe() to iterate over all
devices during cleanup. This is not enough however, if one of the
additionally unregistered devices is next in the list to the bridge
device, it will get freed as well and the iteration continues on
the freed element.

Restart iteration after each bridge device removal from the beginning to
fix this, similar to what rtnl_link_unregister() does.

84ebe1cdae netfilter: nf_conntrack_tcp: fixing to check the lower bound of valid ACK
Lost connections was reported by Thomas Bätzler (running 2.6.25 kernel) on
the netfilter mailing list (see the thread "Weird nat/conntrack Problem
with PASV FTP upload"). He provided tcpdump recordings which helped to
find a long lingering bug in conntrack.

In TCP connection tracking, checking the lower bound of valid ACK could
lead to mark valid packets as INVALID because:

 - We have got a "higher or equal" inequality, but the test checked
   the "higher" condition only; fixed.
 - If the packet contains a SACK option, it could occur that the ACK
   value was before the left edge of our (S)ACK "window": if a previous
   packet from the other party intersected the right edge of the window
   of the receiver, we could move forward the window parameters beyond
   accepting a valid ack. Therefore in this patch we check the rightmost
   SACK edge instead of the ACK value in the lower bound of valid (S)ACK
   test.

It was caused by my patch fd9e63544c
([INET]: Omit double hash calculations in xxx_frag_intern) late 
in the 2.6.24 kernel, so this should probably be queued to -stable.

7be87351a1 tcp: /proc/net/tcp rto,ato values not scaled properly (v2)
I found another case where we are sending information to userspace
in the wrong HZ scale.  This should have been fixed back in 2.5 :-(

This means an ABI change but as it stands there is no way for an application
like ss to get the right value.

ec0d215f94 af_unix: fix 'poll for write'/connected DGRAM sockets
For n:1 'datagram connections' (eg /dev/log), the unix_dgram_sendmsg
routine implements a form of receiver-imposed flow control by
comparing the length of the receive queue of the 'peer socket' with
the max_ack_backlog value stored in the corresponding sock structure,
either blocking the thread which caused the send-routine to be called
or returning EAGAIN. This routine is used by both SOCK_DGRAM and
SOCK_SEQPACKET sockets. The poll-implementation for these socket types
is datagram_poll from core/datagram.c. A socket is deemed to be
writeable by this routine when the memory presently consumed by
datagrams owned by it is less than the configured socket send buffer
size. This is always wrong for PF_UNIX non-stream sockets connected to
server sockets dealing with (potentially) multiple clients if the
abovementioned receive queue is currently considered to be full.
'poll' will then return, indicating that the socket is writeable, but
a subsequent write result in EAGAIN, effectively causing an (usual)
application to 'poll for writeability by repeated send request with
O_NONBLOCK set' until it has consumed its time quantum.

The change below uses a suitably modified variant of the datagram_poll
routines for both type of PF_UNIX sockets, which tests if the
recv-queue of the peer a socket is connected to is presently
considered to be 'full' as part of the 'is this socket
writeable'-checking code. The socket being polled is additionally
put onto the peer_wait wait queue associated with its peer, because the
unix_dgram_recvmsg routine does a wake up on this queue after a
datagram was received and the 'other wakeup call' is done implicitly
as part of skb destruction, meaning, a process blocked in poll
because of a full peer receive queue could otherwise sleep forever
if no datagram owned by its socket was already sitting on this queue.
Among this change is a small (inline) helper routine named
'unix_recvq_full', which consolidates the actual testing code (in three
different places) into a single location.

db43a282d3 tcp: fix for splice receive when used with software LRO
If an skb has nr_frags set to zero but its frag_list is not empty (as
it can happen if software LRO is enabled), and a previous
tcp_read_sock has consumed the linear part of the skb, then
__skb_splice_bits:

(a) incorrectly reports an error and

(b) forgets to update the offset to account for the linear part

Any of the two problems will cause the subsequent __skb_splice_bits
call (the one that handles the frag_list skbs) to either skip data,
or, if the unadjusted offset is greater then the size of the next skb
in the frag_list, make tcp_splice_read loop forever.
