      Linus Torvalds authored 
      Pull networking fixes from David Miller:
 "This is primarily to get those r8169 reverts sorted, but other fixes
  have accumulated meanwhile.

   1) Revert two r8169 changes to fix suspend/resume for some users,
      from Francois Romieu.

   2) PCI dma mapping errors in atl1c are not checked for and this cause
      hard crashes for some users, from Xiong Huang.

   3) In 3.8.x we merged the removal of the EXPERIMENTAL dependency for
      'dlm' but the same patch for 'sctp' got lost somewhere, resulting
      in the potential for build errors since there are cross
      dependencies.  From Kees Cook.

   4) SCTP's ipv6 socket route validation makes boolean tests
      incorrectly, fix from Daniel Borkmann.

   5) mac80211 does sizeof(ptr) instead of (sizeof(ptr) * nelem), from
      Cong Ding.

   6) arp_rcv() can crash on shared non-linear packets, from Eric
      Dumazet.

   7) Avoid crashes in macvtap by setting ->gso_type consistently in
      ixgbe, qlcnic, and bnx2x drivers.  From Michael S Tsirkin and
      Alexander Duyck.

   8) Trinity fuzzer spots infinite loop in __skb_recv_datagram(), fix
      from Eric Dumazet.

   9) STP protocol frames should use high packet priority, otherwise an
      overloaded bridge can get stuck.  From Stephen Hemminger.

  10) The HTB packet scheduler was converted some time ago to store
      internal timestamps in nanoseconds, but we don't convert back into
      psched ticks for the user during dumps.  Fix from Jiri Pirko.

  11) mwl8k channel table doesn't set the .band field properly,
      resulting in NULL pointer derefs.  Fix from Jonas Gorski.

  12) mac80211 doesn't accumulate channels properly during a scan so we
      can downgrade heavily to a much less desirable connection speed.
      Fix from Johannes Berg.

  13) PHY probe failure in stmmac can result in resource leaks and
      double MDIO registery later, from Giuseppe CAVALLARO.

  14) Correct ipv6 checksumming in ip6t_NPT netfilter module, also fix
      address prefix mangling, from YOSHIFUJI Hideaki."

      Pull x86 fixes from Peter Anvin:
 "One (hopefully) last batch of x86 fixes.  You asked for the patch by
  patch justifications, so here they are:

      x86, MCE: Retract most UAPI exports

   This one unexports from userspace a bunch of definitions which should
   never have been exported.  We really don't want to create an
   accidental legacy here.

      x86, doc: Add a bootloader ID for OVMF

   This is a documentation-only patch, just recording the official
   assignment of a boot loader ID.

      x86: Do not leak kernel page mapping locations

   Security: avoid making it needlessly easy for user space to probe the
   kernel memory layout.

      x86/mm: Check if PUD is large when validating a kernel address

   Prevent failures using /proc/kcore when using 1G pages.

      x86/apic: Work around boot failure on HP ProLiant DL980 G7 Server systems

   Works around a BIOS problem causing boot failures on affected hardware."

almost always enabled by default. As agreed during the Linux kernel

      net: sctp: sctp_v6_get_dst: fix boolean test in dst cache · e9c0dfba
      Daniel Borkmann authored 
      We walk through the bind address list and try to get the best source
address for a given destination. However, currently, we take the
'continue' path of the loop when an entry is invalid (!laddr->valid)
*and* the entry state does not equal SCTP_ADDR_SRC (laddr->state !=
SCTP_ADDR_SRC).

Thus, still, invalid entries with SCTP_ADDR_SRC might not 'continue'
as well as valid entries with SCTP_ADDR_{NEW, SRC, DEL}, with a possible
false baddr and matchlen as a result, causing in worst case dst route
to be false or possibly NULL.

This test should actually be a '||' instead of '&&'. But lets fix it
and make this a bit easier to read by having the condition the same way
as similarly done in sctp_v4_get_dst.

      batman-adv: Fix NULL pointer dereference in DAT hash collision avoidance · 816cd5b8
      Pau Koning authored 
      An entry in DAT with the hashed position of 0 can cause a NULL pointer
dereference when the first entry is checked by batadv_choose_next_candidate.
This first candidate automatically has the max value of 0 and the max_orig_node
of NULL. Not checking max_orig_node for NULL in batadv_is_orig_node_eligible
will lead to a NULL pointer dereference when checking for the lowest address.

This problem was added in 785ea114
("batman-adv: Distributed ARP Table - create DHT helper functions").

      When interrupts are disabled, an RX condition can occur but
it is not reported when enabling interrupts again. We need to check
RSR and use napi_reschedule() if condition is met.

(see https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=908436, and

this patch just adds error handler for

      x86/mm: Check if PUD is large when validating a kernel address · 0ee364eb
      Mel Gorman authored 
      A user reported the following oops when a backup process reads
/proc/kcore:

 BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at ffffbb00ff33b000
 IP: [<ffffffff8103157e>] kern_addr_valid+0xbe/0x110
 [...]

 Call Trace:
  [<ffffffff811b8aaa>] read_kcore+0x17a/0x370
  [<ffffffff811ad847>] proc_reg_read+0x77/0xc0
  [<ffffffff81151687>] vfs_read+0xc7/0x130
  [<ffffffff811517f3>] sys_read+0x53/0xa0
  [<ffffffff81449692>] system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b

Investigation determined that the bug triggered when reading
system RAM at the 4G mark. On this system, that was the first
address using 1G pages for the virt->phys direct mapping so the
PUD is pointing to a physical address, not a PMD page.

The problem is that the page table walker in kern_addr_valid() is
not checking pud_large() and treats the physical address as if
it was a PMD.  If it happens to look like pmd_none then it'll
silently fail, probably returning zeros instead of real data. If
the data happens to look like a present PMD though, it will be
walked resulting in the oops above.

This patch adds the necessary pud_large() check.

Unfortunately the problem was not readily reproducible and now
they are running the backup program without accessing
/proc/kcore so the patch has not been validated but I think it
makes sense.
