      rtnetlink: Fix problem with buffer allocation · 115c9b81
      Greg Rose authored
      Implement a new netlink attribute type IFLA_EXT_MASK.  The mask
      is a 32 bit value that can be used to indicate to the kernel that
      certain extended ifinfo values are requested by the user application.
      At this time the only mask value defined is RTEXT_FILTER_VF to
      indicate that the user wants the ifinfo dump to send information
      about the VFs belonging to the interface.
      
      This patch fixes a bug in which certain applications do not have
      large enough buffers to accommodate the extra information returned
      by the kernel with large numbers of SR-IOV virtual functions.
      Those applications will not send the new netlink attribute with
      the interface info dump request netlink messages so they will
      not get unexpectedly large request buffers returned by the kernel.
      
      Modifies the rtnl_calcit function to traverse the list of net
      devices and compute the minimum buffer size that can hold the
      info dumps of all matching devices based upon the filter passed
      in via the new netlink attribute filter mask.  If no filter
      mask is sent then the buffer allocation defaults to NLMSG_GOODSIZE.
      
      With this change it is possible to add yet to be defined netlink
      attributes to the dump request which should make it fairly extensible
      in the future.

      neighbour: Fixed race condition at tbl->nht · 84338a6c
      Michel Machado authored
      When the fixed race condition happens:
      
      1. While function neigh_periodic_work scans the neighbor hash table
      pointed by field tbl->nht, it unlocks and locks tbl->lock between
      buckets in order to call cond_resched.
      
      2. Assume that function neigh_periodic_work calls cond_resched, that is,
      the lock tbl->lock is available, and function neigh_hash_grow runs.
      
      3. Once function neigh_hash_grow finishes, and RCU calls
      neigh_hash_free_rcu, the original struct neigh_hash_table that function
      neigh_periodic_work was using doesn't exist anymore.
      
      4. Once back at neigh_periodic_work, whenever the old struct
      neigh_hash_table is accessed, things can go badly.

      mlx4: Setting new port types after all interfaces unregistered · 3d8f9308
      Yevgeny Petrilin authored
      In port type change flow, need to set the new port types only after
      all interfaces have finished the unregister process.
      Otherwise, during unregister, one of the interfaces might issue a SET_PORT
      command with wrong port types, it can cause bad FW behavior.

      netfilter: ctnetlink: fix soft lockup when netlink adds new entries · af14cca1
      Jozsef Kadlecsik authored
      Marcell Zambo and Janos Farago noticed and reported that when
      new conntrack entries are added via netlink and the conntrack table
      gets full, soft lockup happens. This is because the nf_conntrack_lock
      is held while nf_conntrack_alloc is called, which is in turn wants
      to lock nf_conntrack_lock while evicting entries from the full table.
      
      The patch fixes the soft lockup with limiting the holding of the
      nf_conntrack_lock to the minimum, where it's absolutely required.

      netfilter: ebtables: fix alignment problem in ppc · 88ba136d
      Joerg Willmann authored
      ebt_among extension of ebtables uses __alignof__(_xt_align) while the
      corresponding kernel module uses __alignof__(ebt_replace) to determine
      the alignment in EBT_ALIGN().
      
      These are the results of these values on different platforms:
      
      x86 x86_64 ppc
      __alignof__(_xt_align) 4 8 8
      __alignof__(ebt_replace) 4 8 4
      
      ebtables fails to add rules which use the among extension.
      
      I'm using kernel 2.6.33 and ebtables 2.0.10-4
      
      According to Bart De Schuymer, userspace alignment was changed to
      _xt_align to fix an alignment issue on a userspace32-kernel64 system
      (he thinks it was for an ARM device). So userspace must be right.
      The kernel alignment macro needs to change so it also uses _xt_align
      instead of ebt_replace. The userspace changes date back from
      June 29, 2009.

      BF can be disabled in some cases, the capability field, bf_reg_size is set
      to zero in this case. Don't map the BF area in this case, it would cause
      failures.  In addition, leaving the BF area unmapped
      also alerts the ETH driver to not use BF.

      Linus Torvalds authored
      These are the bug fixes that have accumulated since 3.3-rc3 in arm-soc.
      The majority of them are regression fixes for stuff that broke during
      the merge 3.3 window.
      
      The notable ones are:
      
      * The at91 ata drivers both broke because of an earlier cleanup patch that
        some other patches were based on. Jean-Christophe decided to remove
        the legacy at91_ide driver and fix the new-style at91-pata driver while
        keeping the cleanup patch. I almost rejected the patches for being too
        late and too big but in the end decided to accept them because they
        fix a regression.
      
      * A patch fixing build breakage from the sysdev-to-device conversion
        colliding with other changes touches a number of mach-s3c files.
      
      * b0654037 "ARM: orion: Fix Orion5x GPIO regression from MPP cleanup"
        is a mechanical change that unfortunately touches a lot of lines
        that should up in the diffstat.

      Here are a few more fixes for powerpc.  Some are regressions, the rest
      is simple/obvious/nasty enough that I deemed it good to go now.
      
      Here's also step one of deprecating legacy iSeries support: we are
      removing it from the main defconfig.
      
      Nobody seems to be using it anymore and the code is nasty to maintain,
      (involves horrible hacks in various low level areas of the kernel) so we
      plan to actually rip it out at some point.  For now let's just avoid
      building it by default.  Stephen will proceed to do the actual removal
      later (probably 3.4 or 3.5).
