Added labels for site-local addresses (fec0::/10) and 6bone testing addresses (3ffe::/16) in order to depreference them. Note that the RFC introduced new rows for Teredo, ULA and 6to4 addresses in the default policy table. Some of them have different labels from ours. For backward compatibility, we do not change the "default" labels. Signed-off-by: YOSHIFUJI Hideaki <yoshfuji@linux-ipv6.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

The scsi netlink code confuses the netlink port id with a process id, going so far as to read NETLINK_CREDS(skb)->pid instead of the correct NETLINK_CB(skb).pid. Fortunately it does not matter because nothing registers to respond to scsi netlink requests. The only interesting use of the scsi_netlink interface is fc_host_post_vendor_event which sends a netlink multicast message. Since nothing registers to handle scsi netlink messages kill all of the registration logic, while retaining the same error handling behavior preserving the userspace visible behavior and removing all of the confused code that thought a netlink port id was a process id. This was tested with a kernel allyesconfig build which had no problems. Cc: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@parallels.com> Cc: James Smart <James.Smart@Emulex.Com> Signed-off-by: "Eric W.

Change various flows in the bnx2x driver which up until now flapped the link - these flows now benefit from the link flap avoidance mechanism. This includes the removal of the link reset made upon nic init, as it is possible the link is already active at that time.

Various flows in the bnx2x driver cause a link-flap - if the link is up, it would be toggled down (after a mac/phy reset) and then taken back up. In many of these cases, there is no need to do cause such a flap, as the associated flows should not actually affect the link. This patch adds the 'Link Flap Avoidance' mechanism, which allows the driver to better determine if a given flow requires a link change, and thus minimize the number of link flaps caused by the driver.

Pablo Neira Ayuso says: ==================== The following patchset contains four Netfilter updates, mostly targeting to fix issues added with IPv6 NAT, and one little IPVS update for net-next: * Remove unneeded conditional free of skb in nfnetlink_queue, from Wei Yongjun. * One semantic path from coccinelle detected the use of list_del + INIT_LIST_HEAD, instead of list_del_init, again from Wei Yongjun. * Fix out-of-bound memory access in the NAT address selection, from Florian Westphal. This was introduced with the IPv6 NAT patches. * Two fixes for crashes that were introduced in the recently merged IPv6 NAT support, from myself. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

In order to lay the foundation for 1G EEE support, several segments of code which are common to both 1G and 10G EEE configurations were extracted from the 10G EEE configuration flow to their own functions. E.g., bnx2x_eee_initial_config, bnx2x_eee_advertise, bnx2x_eee_disable, etc. The rest of the EEE functions were relocated and placed in a single, continuous section of the file.

When a policy expiration is triggered from user space the request travels through km_policy_expired and ultimately into xfrm_exp_policy_notify which calls build_polexpire. build_polexpire uses the netlink port passed to km_policy_expired as the source port for the netlink message it builds. When a state expiration is triggered from user space the request travles through km_state_expired and ultimately into xfrm_exp_state_notify which calls build_expire. build_expire uses the netlink port passed to km_state_expired as the source port for the netlink message it builds. Pass nlh->nlmsg_pid from the user generated netlink message that requested the expiration to km_policy_expired and km_state_expired instead of current->pid which is not a netlink port number.

It is a frequent mistake to confuse the netlink port identifier with a process identifier. Try to reduce this confusion by renaming fields that hold port identifiers portid instead of pid. I have carefully avoided changing the structures exported to userspace to avoid changing the userspace API. I have successfully built an allyesconfig kernel with this change. Signed-off-by: "Eric W.

Replace netlink_set_nonroot by one new field `flags' in struct netlink_kernel_cfg that is passed to netlink_kernel_create. This patch also renames NL_NONROOT_* to NL_CFG_F_NONROOT_* since now the flags field in nl_table is generic (so we can add more flags if needed in the future). Also adjust all callers in the net-next tree to use these flags instead of netlink_set_nonroot. Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

Refactoring the bind code lets us use a common driver_info struct for all supported devices, simplifying the code a bit.

QMI requests exceeding 1500 bytes are possible and device firmware does not handle fragmented messages very well. It is therefore necessary to increase the maximum message size from the current 512 bytes. The protocol message size limit is not documented in any publicly known source, but the out of tree driver from CodeAurora use 4 kB. This is therefore chosen as the new arbitrary default until the real limit is known. This should allow any QMI message to be transmitted without fragmentation, fixing known issues with GPS assistance data upload. Signed-off-by: Bjørn Mork <bjorn@mork.no> Signed-off-by: David S.

Passing uids and gids on NETLINK_CB from a process in one user namespace to a process in another user namespace can result in the wrong uid or gid being presented to userspace. Avoid that problem by passing kuids and kgids instead. - define struct scm_creds for use in scm_cookie and netlink_skb_parms that holds uid and gid information in kuid_t and kgid_t. - Modify scm_set_cred to fill out scm_creds by heand instead of using cred_to_ucred to fill out struct ucred. This conversion ensures userspace does not get incorrect uid or gid values to look at. - Modify scm_recv to convert from struct scm_creds to struct ucred before copying credential values to userspace. - Modify __scm_send to populate struct scm_creds on in the scm_cookie, instead of just copying struct ucred from userspace. - Modify netlink_sendmsg to copy scm_creds instead of struct ucred into the NETLINK_CB.
