One change introduced by the workqueue removal patch is that adding an interface that is up to a bridge which is also up does not ever call br_stp_enable_port(), leaving the port in DISABLED state until we do ifconfig down and up or link events occur. The following patch to the br_add_if function fixes it. This is a regression introduced in 2.6.21.

Now that we add the IPv6 device at registration time we don't need to set IF_READY in ipv6_add_dev anymore because we will always get a NETDEV_UP event later on should the device ever become ready.

Inside pfkey_delete and xfrm_del_sa the audit hooks were not called if there was any permission/security failures in attempting to do the del operation (such as permission denied from security_xfrm_state_delete). This patch moves the audit hook to the exit path such that all failures (and successes) will actually get audited.

pfkey_spdget neither had an LSM security hook nor auditing for the removal of xfrm_policy structs. The security hook was added when it was moved into xfrm_policy_byid instead of the callers to that function by my earlier patch and this patch adds the auditing hooks as well.

The security hooks to check permissions to remove an xfrm_policy were actually done after the policy was removed. Since the unlinking and deletion are done in xfrm_policy_by* functions this moves the hooks inside those 2 functions. There we have all the information needed to do the security check and it can be done before the deletion. Since auditing requires the result of that security check err has to be passed back and forth from the xfrm_policy_by* functions. This patch also fixes a bug where a deletion that failed the security check could cause improper accounting on the xfrm_policy (xfrm_get_policy didn't have a put on the exit path for the hold taken by xfrm_policy_by*) It also fixes the return code when no policy is found in xfrm_add_pol_expire. In old code (at least back in the 2.6.18 days) err wasn't used before the return when no policy is found and so the initialization would cause err to be ENOENT. But since err has since been used above when we don't get a policy back from the xfrm_policy_by* function we would always return 0 instead of the intended ENOENT. Also fixed some white space damage in the same area.

This reverts an earlier patch which disabled bidirectional mode, meaning that a listening (passive) socket was not allowed to write to the other (active) end of the connection. This mode had been disabled when there were problems with CCID3, but it imposes a constraint on socket programming and thus hinders deployment. A change is included to ignore RX feedback received by the TX CCID3 module. Many thanks to Andre Noll for pointing out this issue.

The individual fragments of a packet reassembled by conntrack have the conntrack reference from the reassembled packet attached, but nfctinfo is not copied. This leaves it initialized to 0, which unfortunately is the value of IP_CT_ESTABLISHED. The result is that all IPv6 fragments are tracked as ESTABLISHED, allowing them to bypass a usual ruleset which accepts ESTABLISHED packets early.

The following patch fixes Red Hat bz 229831. Without this patch its possible for the wrong inode to be returned in certain cases.

The below patch fixes a problem where we were not flushing rgrps correctly. It only occurred in the specific case that a callback was received for an rgrp which was dirty and when a journal log flush had not already resulted in the rgrp being flushed anyway.

This fixes a problem I encountered while running bonnie++. When you have one thread that opens a file and starts to write to it, and then another thread that tries to open and write to the same file, the second thread will loop forever trying to grab the inode lock for that inode. Basically we come in through generic_buffered_file_write, which calls gfs2_prepare_write, which then attempts to grab the glock. Because we don't own the lock, gfs2_prepare_write gets GLR_TRYFAILED, which returns AOP_TRUNCATED_PAGE to generic_buffered_file_write. At this point generic_buffered_file_write loops around again and immediately retries the prepare_write. This means that the second process never gets off of the processor in order to allow the process that holds the lock to finish its work and let go of the lock. This patch makes gfs2_glock_nq schedule() if it gets back a GLR_TRYFAILED, which resolves this problem.

check_tsc_sync_source() depends on being called with irqs disabled (it checks whether the TSC is coherent across two specific CPUs). This is incidentally true during bootup, but not during cpu hotplug __cpu_up(). This got found via smp_processor_id() debugging. disable irqs explicitly and remove the unconditional enabling of interrupts. Add touch_nmi_watchdog() to the cpu_online_map busy loop. this bug is present both on i386 and on x86_64.

Terminate the frame pointer walk if (a) the address is outside the task's kernel stack or (b) if the frame pointer isn't monotonically increasing. Without this fix, show_trace() may enter an infinite loop, walking through random data anywhere in memory. Since any address within the kernel stack is guaranteed to be valid, we may eliminate the __get_user() calls as well. Signed-off-by: Haavard Skinnemoen <hskinnemoen@atmel.com>

This reverts commit 39d61db0. The commit was buggy in multiple ways: - the conversion to ilog2() was incorrect to begin with - it tested the wrong #defines, so on all architectures but FRV you'd never see the bug except for constant arguments. - the new "get_order()" macro used its arguments multiple times, and didn't even parenthesize them properly - despite the comments, it was not true that you could use it for constant initializers, since not all architectures even use the generic page.h header file. All of the problems are individually fixable, but it all boils down to: better just revert it, and re-do it from scratch.
