The following tightens the padding check from commit c1412fce : * Take into account combinations of consecutive Pad1 and PadN. * Catch the corner case of when only padding is present in the header, when the extention header length is 0 (i.e., 8 bytes). In this case, the header would have exactly 6 bytes of padding: +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ : Next Header : Hdr Ext Len=0 : : +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ + : Padding (Pad1 or PadN) : +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ Signed-off-by: Eldad Zack <eldad@fogrefinery.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Add the ZTE (Vodafone) K3765-Z to the whitelist. This requires the previous patch to make the whitelist with forced interface 4 generic or the device fails to initialise. After applying this patch and loading the Option driver without usb-modeswitch's bind all interfaces trick, a wwan0 net interface and /dev/cdc-wdm0 device file were created. Using Bjorn Mork's perl connection script a connection was made to a mobile network using QMI and the network interface's IPv4 address was configured OK.

Change the forced interface 4 whitelist to use the generic shared binder instead of the Gobi specific one. Certain ZTE devices (K3520-Z & K3765-Z) don't work with the Gobi version, but function quite happily with the generic. This has been tested with the following devices: K3520-Z K3565-Z K3765-Z K4505-Z It hasn't been tested with the ZTE MF820D, which is the only other device that uses this whitelist at present. Although Bjorn doesn't expect any problems, any testing with that device would be appreciated.

Move tcp_try_coalesce() protocol independent part to skb_try_coalesce(). skb_try_coalesce() can be used in IPv4 defrag and IPv6 reassembly, to build optimized skbs (less sk_buff, and possibly less 'headers') skb_try_coalesce() is zero copy, unless the copy can fit in destination header (its a rare case) kfree_skb_partial() is also moved to net/core/skbuff.c and exported, because IPv6 will need it in patch (ipv6: use skb coalescing in reassembly).

Pull x86 linker bug workarounds from Peter Anvin. GNU ld-2.22.52.0.[12] (*) has an unfortunate bug where it incorrectly turns certain relocation entries absolute. Section-relative symbols that are part of otherwise empty sections are silently changed them to absolute. We rely on section-relative symbols staying section-relative, and actually have several sections in the linker script solely for this purpose. See for example http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=14052 We could just black-list the buggy linker, but it appears that it got shipped in at least F17, and possibly other distros too, so it's sadly not some rare unusual case. This backports the workaround from the x86/trampoline branch, and as Peter says: "This is not a minimal fix, not at all, but it is a tested code base." * 'x86/ld-fix' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: x86, relocs: When printing an error, say relative or absolute x86, relocs: Workaround for binutils 2.22.52.0.1 section bug x86, realmode: 16-bit real-mode code support for relocs tool (*) That's a manly release numbering system.

Occasionally, testing memcg's move_charge_at_immigrate on rc7 shows a flurry of hundreds of warnings at kernel/res_counter.c:96, where res_counter_uncharge_locked() does WARN_ON(counter->usage < val). The first trace of each flurry implicates __mem_cgroup_cancel_charge() of mc.precharge, and an audit of mc.precharge handling points to mem_cgroup_move_charge_pte_range()'s THP handling in commit 12724850 ("memcg: avoid THP split in task migration"). Checking !mc.precharge is good everywhere else, when a single page is to be charged; but here the "mc.precharge -= HPAGE_PMD_NR" likely to follow, is liable to result in underflow (a lot can change since the precharge was estimated). Simply check against HPAGE_PMD_NR: there's probably a better alternative, trying precharge for more, splitting if unsuccessful; but this one-liner is safer for now - no kernel/res_counter.c:96 warnings seen in 26 hours.

If the allfrag feature has been set on a host route (due to an ICMPv6 Packet Too Big received indicating a MTU of less than 1280), we hit a very slow behavior in TCP stack, because all big packets are dropped and only a retransmit timer is able to push one MSS frame every 200 ms. One way to handle this is to disable GSO on the socket the first time a super packet is dropped. Adding a specific dst_allfrag() in the fast path is probably overkill since the dst_allfrag() case almost never happen.

Quoting Tore Anderson from : If the allfrag feature has been set on a host route (due to an ICMPv6 Packet Too Big received indicating a MTU of less than 1280), TCP SYN/ACK packets to that destination appears to get an incorrect TCP checksum. This in turn means they are thrown away as invalid. In the case of an IPv4 client behind a link with a MTU of less than 1260, accessing an IPv6 server through a stateless translator, this means that the client can only download a single large file from the server, because once it is in the server's routing cache with the allfrag feature set, new TCP connections can no longer be established. </endquote> It appears ip6_fragment() doesn't handle CHECKSUM_PARTIAL properly. As network drivers are not prepared to fetch correct transport header, a safe fix is to call skb_checksum_help() before fragmenting packet.

A new option is added to the relocs tool called '--realmode'. This option causes the generation of 16-bit segment relocations and 32-bit linear relocations for the real-mode code. When the real-mode code is moved to the low-memory during kernel initialization, these relocation entries can be used to relocate the code properly. In the assembly code 16-bit segment relocations must be relative to the 'real_mode_seg' absolute symbol. Linear relocations must be relative to a symbol prefixed with 'pa_'. 16-bit segment relocation is used to load cs:ip in 16-bit code. Linear relocations are used in the 32-bit code for relocatable data references. They are declared in the linker script of the real-mode code. The relocs tool is moved to arch/x86/tools/relocs.c, and added new target archscripts that can be used to build scripts needed building an architecture. be compiled before building the arch/x86 tree.

-
Mike Snitzer authored
When the thin pool target clears the discard_passdown parameter internally, it incorrectly changes the table line reported to userspace. This breaks dumb string comparisons on these table lines in generic userspace device-mapper library code and leads to tables being reloaded repeatedly when nothing is actually meant to be changing. This patch corrects this by no longer changing the table line when discard passdown was disabled. We can still tell when discard passdown is overridden by looking for the message "Discard unsupported by data device (sdX): Disabling discard passdown." This automatic detection is also moved from the 'load' to the 'resume' so that it is re-evaluated should the properties of underlying devices change.
