Pull networking fixes from David Miller: 1) Null termination fix in dns_resolver got the pointer dereferncing wrong, fix from Ben Hutchings. 2) ip_options_compile() has a benign but real buffer overflow when parsing options. From Eric Dumazet. 3) Table updates can crash in netfilter's nftables if none of the state flags indicate an actual change, from Pablo Neira Ayuso. 4) Fix race in nf_tables dumping, also from Pablo. 5) GRE-GRO support broke the forwarding path because the segmentation state was not fully initialized in these paths, from Jerry Chu. 6) sunvnet driver leaks objects and potentially crashes on module unload, from Sowmini Varadhan. 7) We can accidently generate the same handle for several u32 classifier filters, fix from Cong Wang. 8) Several edge case bug fixes in fragment handling in xen-netback, from Zoltan Kiss. * git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net: (21 commits) ipv4: fix buffer overflow in ip_options_compile() batman-adv: fix TT VLAN inconsistency on VLAN re-add batman-adv: drop QinQ claim frames in bridge loop avoidance dns_resolver: Null-terminate the right string xen-netback: Fix pointer incrementation to avoid incorrect logging xen-netback: Fix releasing header slot on error path xen-netback: Fix releasing frag_list skbs in error path xen-netback: Fix handling frag_list on grant op error path net_sched: avoid generating same handle for u32 filters net: huawei_cdc_ncm: add "subclass 3" devices net: qmi_wwan: add two Sierra Wireless/Netgear devices wan/x25_asy: integer overflow in x25_asy_change_mtu() net: ppp: fix creating PPP pass and active filters net/mlx4_en: cq->irq_desc wasn't set in legacy EQ's sunvnet: clean up objects created in vnet_new() on vnet_exit() r8169: Enable RX_MULTI_EN for RTL_GIGA_MAC_VER_40 net-gre-gro: Fix a bug that breaks the forwarding path netfilter: nf_tables: 64bit stats need some extra synchronization netfilter: nf_tables: set NLM_F_DUMP_INTR if netlink dumping is stale netfilter: nf_tables: safe RCU iteration on list when dumping ...

Antonio Quartulli says: ==================== pull request [net]: batman-adv 20140721 here you have two fixes that we have been testing for quite some time (this is why they arrived a bit late in the rc cycle). Patch 1) ensures that BLA packets get dropped and not forwarded to the mesh even if they reach batman-adv within QinQ frames. Forwarding them into the mesh means messing up with the TT database of other nodes which can generate all kind of unexpected behaviours during route computation. Patch 2) avoids a couple of race conditions triggered upon fast VLAN deletion-addition. Such race conditions are pretty dangerous because they not only create inconsistencies in the TT database of the nodes in the network, but such scenario is also unrecoverable (unless nodes are rebooted). ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

The "uptime" trace clock added in: commit 8aacf017 tracing: Add "uptime" trace clock that uses jiffies has wraparound problems when the system has been up more than 1 hour 11 minutes and 34 seconds. It converts jiffies to nanoseconds using: (u64)jiffies_to_usecs(jiffy) * 1000ULL but since jiffies_to_usecs() only returns a 32-bit value, it truncates at 2^32 microseconds. An additional problem on 32-bit systems is that the argument is "unsigned long", so fixing the return value only helps until 2^32 jiffies (49.7 days on a HZ=1000 system). Avoid these problems by using jiffies_64 as our basis, and not converting to nanoseconds (we do convert to clock_t because user facing API must not be dependent on internal kernel HZ values).

When a VLAN interface (on top of batX) is removed and re-added within a short timeframe TT does not have enough time to properly cleanup. This creates an internal TT state mismatch as the newly created softif_vlan will be initialized from scratch with a TT client count of zero (even if TT entries for this VLAN still exist). The resulting TT messages are bogus due to the counter / tt client listing mismatch, thus creating inconsistencies on every node in the network To fix this issue destroy_vlan() has to not free the VLAN object immediately but it has to be kept alive until all the TT entries for this VLAN have been removed. destroy_vlan() still removes the sysfs folder so that the user has the feeling that everything went fine. If the same VLAN is re-added before the old object is free'd, then the latter is resurrected and re-used. Implement such behaviour by increasing the reference counter of a softif_vlan object every time a new local TT entry for such VLAN is created and remove the object from the list only when all the TT entries have been destroyed.

This patch makes this function aware that the first frag and the header might share the same ring slot. That could happen if the first slot is bigger than PKT_PROT_LEN. Due to this the error path might release that slot twice or never, depending on the error scenario. xenvif_idx_release is also removed from xenvif_idx_unmap, and called separately.

When the grant operations failed, the skb is freed up eventually, and it tries to release the frags, if there is any.

When kernel generates a handle for a u32 filter, it tries to start from the max in the bucket. So when we have a filter with the max (fff) handle, it will cause kernel always generates the same handle for new filters. This can be shown by the following command: tc qdisc add dev eth0 ingress tc filter add dev eth0 parent ffff: protocol ip pref 770 handle 800::fff u32 match ip protocol 1 0xff tc filter add dev eth0 parent ffff: protocol ip pref 770 u32 match ip protocol 1 0xff ... we will get some u32 filters with same handle: # tc filter show dev eth0 parent ffff: filter protocol ip pref 770 u32 filter protocol ip pref 770 u32 fh 800: ht divisor 1 filter protocol ip pref 770 u32 fh 800::fff order 4095 key ht 800 bkt 0 match 00010000/00ff0000 at 8 filter protocol ip pref 770 u32 fh 800::fff order 4095 key ht 800 bkt 0 match 00010000/00ff0000 at 8 filter protocol ip pref 770 u32 fh 800::fff order 4095 key ht 800 bkt 0 match 00010000/00ff0000 at 8 filter protocol ip pref 770 u32 fh 800::fff order 4095 key ht 800 bkt 0 match 00010000/00ff0000 at 8 handles should be unique.

Highlights include; - Stable fix for an NFSv3 posix ACL regression - Multiple fixes for regressions to the NFS generic read/write code: - Fix page splitting bugs that come into play when a small rsize/wsize read/write needs to be sent again (due to error conditions or page redirty) - Fix nfs_wb_page_cancel, which is called by the "invalidatepage" method - Fix 2 compile warnings about unused variables - Fix a performance issue affecting unstable writes" * tag 'nfs-for-3.16-3' of git://git.linux-nfs.org/projects/trondmy/linux-nfs: NFS: Don't reset pg_moreio in __nfs_pageio_add_request NFS: Remove 2 unused variables nfs: handle multiple reqs in nfs_wb_page_cancel nfs: handle multiple reqs in nfs_page_async_flush nfs: change find_request to find_head_request nfs: nfs_page should take a ref on the head req nfs: mark nfs_page reqs with flag for extra ref nfs: only show Posix ACLs in listxattr if actually present

commit 99994cde btrfs: dev delete should remove sysfs entry added a btrfs_kobj_rm_device, which dereferences device->bdev... right after we check whether device->bdev might be NULL. I don't honestly know if it's possible to have a NULL device->bdev here, but assuming that it is (given the test), we need to move the kobject removal to be under that test.

xfstests generic/127 detected this problem. With commit 7fc34a62, now fsync will only flush data within the passed range. This is the cause of the above problem, -- btrfs's fsync has a stage called 'sync log' which will wait for all the ordered extents it've recorded to finish. In xfstests/generic/127, with mixed operations such as truncate, fallocate, punch hole, and mapwrite, we get some pre-allocated extents, and mapwrite will mmap, and then msync. And I find that msync will wait for quite a long time (about 20s in my case), thanks to ftrace, it turns out that the previous fallocate calls 'btrfs_wait_ordered_range()' to flush dirty pages, but as the range of dirty pages may be larger than 'btrfs_wait_ordered_range()' wants, there can be some ordered extents created but not getting corresponding pages flushed, then they're left in memory until we fsync which runs into the stage 'sync log', and fsync will just wait for the system writeback thread to flush those pages and get ordered extents finished, so the latency is inevitable. This adds a flush similar to btrfs_start_ordered_extent() in btrfs_wait_logged_extents() to fix that.

Pull locking fixes from Thomas Gleixner: "The locking department delivers: - A rather large and intrusive bundle of fixes to address serious performance regressions introduced by the new rwsem / mcs technology.
