      x86 efi: bugfix interrupt disabling sequence · 0ce6cda2
      Bart Kuivenhoven authored
      The problem in efi_main was that the idt was cleared before the
      interrupts were disabled.
      
      The UEFI spec states that interrupts aren't used so this shouldn't be
      too much of a problem. Peripherals however don't necessarily know about
      this and thus might cause interrupts to happen anyway. Even if
      ExitBootServices() has been called.
      
      This means there is a risk of an interrupt being triggered while the IDT
      register is nullified and the interrupt bit hasn't been cleared,
      allowing for a triple fault.
      
      This patch disables the interrupt flag, while leaving the existing IDT
      in place. The CPU won't care about the IDT at all as long as the
      interrupt bit is off, so it's safe to leave it in place as nothing will
      ever happen to it.

      x86: EFI stub support for large memory maps · d2078d5a
      Linn Crosetto authored
      This patch fixes a problem with EFI memory maps larger than 128 entries
      when booting using the EFI stub, which results in overflowing e820_map
      in boot_params and an eventual halt when checking the map size in
      sanitize_e820_map().
      
      If the number of map entries is greater than what can fit in e820_map,
      add the extra entries to the setup_data list using type SETUP_E820_EXT.
      These extra entries are then picked up when the setup_data list is
      parsed in parse_e820_ext().

      Pull networking fixes from David Miller:
      
       1) There was a simplification in the ipv6 ndisc packet sending
          attempted here, which avoided using memory accounting on the
          per-netns ndisc socket for sending NDISC packets.  It did fix some
          important issues, but it causes regressions so it gets reverted here
          too.  Specifically, the problem with this change is that the IPV6
          output path really depends upon there being a valid skb->sk
          attached.
      
          The reason we want to do this change in some form when we figure out
          how to do it right, is that if a device goes down the ndisc_sk
          socket send queue will fill up and block NDISC packets that we want
          to send to other devices too.  That's really bad behavior.
      
          Hopefully Thomas can come up with a better version of this change.
      
       2) Fix a severe TCP performance regression by reverting a change made
          to dev_pick_tx() quite some time ago.  From Eric Dumazet.
      
       3) TIPC returns wrongly signed error codes, fix from Erik Hugne.
      
       4) Fix OOPS when doing IPSEC over ipv4 tunnels due to orphaning the
          skb->sk too early.  Fix from Li Hongjun.
      
       5) RAW ipv4 sockets can use the wrong routing key during lookup, from
          Chris Clark.
      
       6) Similar to #1 revert an older change that tried to use plain
          alloc_skb() for SYN/ACK TCP packets, this broke the netfilter owner
          mark which needs to see the skb->sk for such frames.  From Phil
          Oester.
      
       7) BNX2x driver bug fixes from Ariel Elior and Yuval Mintz,
          specifically in the handling of virtual functions.
      
       8) IPSEC path error propagations to sockets is not done properly when
          we have v4 in v6, and v6 in v4 type rules.  Fix from Hannes Frederic
          Sowa.
      
       9) Fix missing channel context release in mac80211, from Johannes Berg.
      
      10) Fix network namespace handing wrt.  SCM_RIGHTS, from Andy
          Lutomirski.
      
      11) Fix usage of bogus NAPI weight in jme, netxen, and ps3_gelic
          drivers.  From Michal Schmidt.
      
      12) Hopefully a complete and correct fix for the genetlink dump locking
          and module reference counting.  From Pravin B Shelar.
      
      13) sk_busy_loop() must do a cpu_relax(), from Eliezer Tamir.
      
      14) Fix handling of timestamp offset when restoring a snapshotted TCP
          socket.  From Andrew Vagin.
