dev_deactivate_many() issues one synchronize_rcu() call after qdiscs set to noop_qdisc. This call is here to make sure they are no outstanding qdisc-less dev_queue_xmit calls before returning to caller. But in dismantle phase, we dont have to wait, because we wont activate again the device, and we are going to wait one rcu grace period later in rollback_registered_many(). After this patch, device dismantle uses one synchronize_net() and one rcu_barrier() call only, so we have a ~30% speedup and a smaller RTNL latency.

In the old days, we used to access dev->master in __netif_receive_skb() in a rcu_read_lock section. So one synchronize_net() call was needed in netdev_set_master() to make sure another cpu could not use old master while/after we release it. We now use netdev_rx_handler infrastructure and added one synchronize_net() call in bond_release()/bond_release_all() Remove the obsolete synchronize_net() from netdev_set_master() and add one in bridge del_nbp() after its netdev_rx_handler_unregister() call. This makes enslave -d a bit faster. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> CC: Jiri Pirko <jpirko@redhat.com> CC: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@vyatta.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Amerigo Wang authored
V3: rename NETDEV_ENSLAVE to NETDEV_JOIN Currently we do nothing when we enslave a net device which is running netconsole. Neil pointed out that we may get weird results in such case, so let's disable netpoll on the device being enslaved. I think it is too harsh to prevent the device being ensalved if it is running netconsole. By the way, this patch also removes the NETDEV_GOING_DOWN from netconsole netdev notifier, because netpoll will check if the device is running or not and we don't handle NETDEV_PRE_UP neither. This patch is based on net-next-2.6. Signed-off-by: WANG Cong <amwang@redhat.com> Cc: Neil Horman <nhorman@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

After discovering that wide use of prefetch on modern CPUs could be a net loss instead of a win, net drivers which were relying on the implicit inclusion of prefetch.h via the list headers showed up in the resulting cleanup fallout.

This solves a serious VFS-level bug in nested_symlink (which was rewritten from do_follow_link), and follows the order of depth tests that existed before.

As Ben Hutchings discovered [1], the patch for CVE-2011-1017 (buffer overflow in ldm_frag_add) is not sufficient. The original patch in commit c340b1d6 ("fs/partitions/ldm.c: fix oops caused by corrupted partition table") does not consider that, for subsequent fragments, previously allocated memory is used.
