      [IPSEC]: Fix BEET output · 732c8bd5
      Herbert Xu authored
      The IPv6 BEET output function is incorrectly including the inner
      header in the payload to be protected.  This causes a crash as
      the packet doesn't actually have that many bytes for a second
      header.
      
      The IPv4 BEET output on the other hand is broken when it comes
      to handling an inner IPv6 header since it always assumes an
      inner IPv4 header.
      
      This patch fixes both by making sure that neither BEET output
      function touches the inner header at all.  All access is now
      done through the protocol-independent cb structure.  Two new
      attributes are added to make this work, the IP header length
      and the IPv4 option length.  They're filled in by the inner
      mode's output function.
      
      Thanks to Joakim Koskela for finding this problem.

      hugetlb: fix potential livelock in return_unused_surplus_hugepages() · 11320d17

      This was tracked down to a potential livelock in
      return_unused_surplus_hugepages().  In the case where we have surplus
      pages on some node, but no free pages on the same node, we may never
      break out of the loop. To avoid this livelock, terminate the search if
      we iterate a number of times equal to the number of online nodes without
      freeing a page.
      
      Thanks to Andy Whitcroft and Adam Litke for helping with debugging and
      the patch.

      hugetlb: indicate surplus huge page counts in per-node meminfo · a1de0919
      Nishanth Aravamudan authored
      Currently we show the surplus hugetlb pool state in /proc/meminfo, but
      not in the per-node meminfo files, even though we track the information
      on a per-node basis. Printing it there can help track down dynamic pool
      bugs including the one in the follow-on patch.

      x86: fix performance drop for glx · d546b67a
      Suresh Siddha authored
      fix the 3D performance drop reported at:
      
         http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10328
      
      fb drivers are using ioremap()/ioremap_nocache(), followed by mtrr_add with
      WC attribute. Recent changes in page attribute code made both
      ioremap()/ioremap_nocache() mappings as UC (instead of previous UC-). This
      breaks the graphics performance, as the effective memory type is UC instead
      of expected WC.
      
      The correct way to fix this is to add ioremap_wc() (which uses UC- in the
      absence of PAT kernel support and WC with PAT) and change all the
      fb drivers to use this new ioremap_wc() API.
      
      We can take this correct and longer route for post 2.6.25. For now,
      revert back to the UC- behavior for ioremap/ioremap_nocache.
