      [NET]: Expose netdevice dev_id through sysfs · 9d29672c
      David Woodhouse authored
      Expose dev_id to userspace, because it helps to disambiguate between
      interfaces where the MAC address is unique.
      
      This should allow us to simplify the handling of persistent naming for
      S390 network devices in udev -- because it can depend on a simple
      attribute of the device like the other match criteria, rather than
      having a special case for SUBSYSTEMS=="ccwgroup".

      tg3: 5701 DMA corruption fix · 41588ba1
      Matt Carlson authored
      Herbert Xu's commit fb93134d, entitled
      "[TCP]: Fix size calculation in sk_stream_alloc_pskb", has triggered a
      bug in the 5701 where the 5701 DMA engine will corrupt outgoing
      packets.  This problem only happens when the starting address of the
      packet matches a certain range of offsets and only when the 5701 is
      placed downstream of a particular Intel bridge.
      
      This patch detects the problematic bridge and if present, readjusts the
      starting address of the packet data to a dword aligned boundary.

      atm nicstar: Removal of debug code containing deprecated calls to cli()/sti() · 36ef4080
      Mark Asselstine authored
      Code within NS_DEBUG_SPINLOCKS contained deprecated cli()/sti()
      function calls.  NS_DEBUG_SPINLOCKS and the associated code seems to
      be of little use these days so the strategy of removing this code
      rather then updating it to use spinlocks has been taken.

      netfilter: Fix SIP conntrack build with NAT disabled. · e1f9a464
      Patrick McHardy authored
      Reported by Ingo Molnar.
      
      The SIP helper is also useful without NAT. This patch adds an ifdef
      around the RTP call optimization for NATed clients.

      Security: Introduce security= boot parameter · 076c54c5
      Ahmed S. Darwish authored
      Add the security= boot parameter. This is done to avoid LSM
      registration clashes in case of more than one bult-in module.
      
      User can choose a security module to enable at boot. If no
      security= boot parameter is specified, only the first LSM
      asking for registration will be loaded. An invalid security
      module name will be treated as if no module has been chosen.
      
      LSM modules must check now if they are allowed to register
      by calling security_module_enable(ops) first. Modify SELinux
      and SMACK to do so.
      
      Do not let SMACK register smackfs if it was not chosen on
      boot. Smackfs assumes that smack hooks are registered and
      the initial task security setup (swapper->security) is done.
