An iucv deadlock may occur, where one CPU is spinning on the iucv_table_lock for iucv_tasklet_fn(), while another CPU is holding the iucv_table_lock for an iucv_path_connect() and is waiting for the first CPU in an smp_call_function. Solution: replace spin_lock in iucv_tasklet_fn by spin_trylock and reschedule tasklet in case of non-granted lock.

The set_multicast_list function may be called without holding the rtnl mutex, resulting in races when changing the underlying device's promiscous and allmulti state. Use the change_rx_mode hook, which is always invoked under the rtnl. Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

The method drivers currently use to synchronize multicast lists is not very pretty: - walk the multicast list - search each entry on a copy of the previous list - if new add to lower device - walk the copy of the previous list - search each entry on the current list - if removed delete from lower device - copy entire list This patch adds a new field to struct dev_addr_list to store the synchronization state and adds two helper functions for synchronization and cleanup.

Currently the set_multicast_list (and set_rx_mode) callbacks are responsible for configuring the device according to the IFF_PROMISC, IFF_MULTICAST and IFF_ALLMULTI flags and the mc_list (and uc_list in case of set_rx_mode). These callbacks can be invoked from BH context without the rtnl_mutex by dev_mc_add/dev_mc_delete, which makes reading the device flags and promiscous/allmulti count racy. For real hardware drivers that just commit all changes to the hardware this is not a real problem since the stack guarantees to call them for every change, so at least the final call will not race and commit the correct configuration to the hardware. For software devices that want to synchronize promiscous and multicast state to an underlying device however this can cause corruption of the underlying device's flags or promisc/allmulti counts. When the software device is concurrently put in promiscous or allmulti mode while set_multicast_list is invoked from bottem half context, the device might synchronize the change to the underlying device without holding the rtnl_mutex, which races with concurrent changes to the underlying device. Add a dev->change_rx_flags hook that is invoked when any of the flags that affect rx filtering change (under the rtnl_mutex), which allows drivers to perform synchronization immediately and only synchronize the address lists in set_multicast_list/set_rx_mode.

Subject: [patch] net/input: fix net/rfkill/rfkill-input.c bug on 64-bit systems this recent commit: commit cf4328cd Author: Ivo van Doorn <IvDoorn@gmail.com> Date: Mon May 7 00:34:20 2007 -0700 [NET]: rfkill: add support for input key to control wireless radio added this 64-bit bug: .... unsigned int flags; spin_lock_irqsave(&task->lock, flags); .... irq 'flags' must be unsigned long, not unsigned int. The -rt tree has strict checks about this on 64-bit so this triggered a build failure. Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

This reverts commit 9faf65fb. It bit people like Michal Piotrowski: "My system is too secure, I can not login :)" because it changed how CONFIG_NETLABEL worked, and broke older SElinux policies. As a result, quoth James Morris: "Can you please revert this patch? We thought it only affected people running MLS, but it will affect others. Sorry for the hassle."
