cgroup_attach_task_current_cg API that have upstream is backwards: we
really need an API to attach to the cgroups from another process A to
the current one.

In our case (vhost), a priveledged user wants to attach it's task to cgroups
from a less priveledged one, the API makes us run it in the other
task's context, and this fails.

So let's make the API generic and just pass in 'from' and 'to' tasks.
Add an inline wrapper for cgroup_attach_task_current_cg to avoid
breaking bisect.

Packets entering GRO might have different headrooms, even for a given
flow (because of implementation details in drivers, like copybreak).
We cant force drivers to deliver packets with a fixed headroom.

1) fix skb_segment()

skb_segment() makes the false assumption headrooms of fragments are same
than the head. When CHECKSUM_PARTIAL is used, this can give csum_start
errors, and crash later in skb_copy_and_csum_dev()

2) allocate a minimal skb for head of frag_list

skb_gro_receive() uses netdev_alloc_skb(headroom + skb_gro_offset(p)) to
allocate a fresh skb. This adds NET_SKB_PAD to a padding already
provided by netdevice, depending on various things, like copybreak.

Use alloc_skb() to allocate an exact padding, to reduce cache line
needs:
NET_SKB_PAD + NET_IP_ALIGN

vortex_ioctl() was grabbing vortex_private::lock around its call to
generic_mii_ioctl().  This is no longer necessary since there are more
specific locks which the mdio_{read,write}() functions will obtain.
Worse, those functions do not save and restore IRQ flags when locking
the MII state, so interrupts will be enabled when generic_mii_ioctl()
returns.

Since there is currently no need for any function to call
mdio_{read,write}() while holding another spinlock, do not change them
to save and restore IRQ flags but remove the specification of ordering
between vortex_private::lock and vortex_private::mii_lock.

There's something very important I forgot to tell you.
 What?

 Don't cross the GRO streams.
 Why?

 It would be bad.
 I'm fuzzy on the whole good/bad thing. What do you mean, "bad"?

 Try to imagine all the Internet as you know it stopping instantaneously
  and every bit in every packet swapping at the speed of light.
 Total packet reordering.
 Right. That's bad. Okay. All right. Important safety tip. Thanks, Hubert

The simplest way to stop this is just avoid doing GRO on the second port.
Very few Marvell boards support two ports per ring, and GRO is just
an optimization.

If irda_open_tsap() fails, the irda_bind() code tries to destroy

In particular, it fails to a) release the hashbin attached to the

Wireless extensions have an unfortunate, undocumented
requirement which requires drivers to always fill
iwp->length when returning a successful status. When
a driver doesn't do this, it leads to a kernel heap
content leak when userspace offers a larger buffer
than would have been necessary.

Arguably, this is a driver bug, as it should, if it
returns 0, fill iwp->length, even if it separately
indicated that the buffer contents was not valid.

However, we can also at least avoid the memory content
leak if the driver doesn't do this by setting the iwp
length to max_tokens, which then reflects how big the
buffer is that the driver may fill, regardless of how
big the userspace buffer is.

To illustrate the point, this patch also fixes a
corresponding cfg80211 bug (since this requirement
isn't documented nor was ever pointed out by anyone
during code review, I don't trust all drivers nor
all cfg80211 handlers to implement it correctly).

The new workqueue changes helped me find this bug
that's been lingering since the changes to the work
processing in mac80211 -- the work timer is never

after all data structures have been freed. It can't
be re-armed because all it will do, if running, is
schedule the work, but that gets flushed later and

Michael reported that p54* never really entered power
save mode, even tough it was enabled.

It turned out that upon a power save mode change the
firmware will set a special flag onto the last outgoing
frame tx status (which in this case is almost always the
designated PSM nullfunc frame). This flag confused the
driver; It erroneously reported transmission failures
to the stack, which then generated the next nullfunc.
and so on...

The string clone is only used as a temporary copy of the argument val
within the while loop, and so it should be freed before leaving the
function.  The call to strsep, however, modifies clone, so a pointer to the
front of the string is kept in saved_clone, to make it possible to free it.

FreeBSD, Solaris, Mac doesn't. because Ruby's write() method call
select() internally. and tcp_poll has a bug.

SUS defined 'ready for writing' of select() as following.

|  A descriptor shall be considered ready for writing when a call to an output
|  function with O_NONBLOCK clear would not block, whether or not the function
|  would transfer data successfully.

That said, EPIPE situation is clearly one of 'ready for writing'.

We don't have read-side issue because tcp_poll() already has read side
shutdown care.

|        if (sk->sk_shutdown & RCV_SHUTDOWN)

As discovered by Anton Blanchard, current code to autotune 
tcp_death_row.sysctl_max_tw_buckets, sysctl_tcp_max_orphans and
sysctl_max_syn_backlog makes little sense.

The bigger a page is, the less tcp_max_orphans is : 4096 on a 512GB
machine in Anton's case.

(tcp_hashinfo.bhash_size * sizeof(struct inet_bind_hashbucket))
is much bigger if spinlock debugging is on. Its wrong to select bigger
limits in this case (where kernel structures are also bigger)

bhash_size max is 65536, and we get this value even for small machines. 

A better ground is to use size of ehash table, this also makes code
shorter and more obvious.

Based on a patch from Anton, and another from David.

* If alloc_etherdev() failed it would have caused a NULL dereference
  because "pep" would be null when we checked "if (pep->clk)".
* Also it's better to propagate the error codes from mdiobus_register()
  instead of just returning -ENOMEM.

"pep->pd" isn't checked consistently in this function.  For example it's
dereferenced unconditionally on the next line after the end of the if
condition.  This function is only called from pxa168_eth_probe() and
pep->pd is always non-NULL so I removed the check.
