[ Upstream commit c5114cd5 ] It's after all necessary to do reset headers here. The reason is we cannot depend that it gets reseted in __netif_receive_skb once skb is reinjected. For incoming vlanids without vlan_dev, vlan_do_receive() returns false with skb != NULL and __netif_reveive_skb continues, skb is not reinjected. This might be good material for 3.0-stable as well Reported-by:

[ Upstream commit f0e3d068 ] Using a gcc 4.4.3, warnings are emitted for a possibly uninitialized use of ecn_ok. This can happen if cookie_check_timestamp() returns due to not having seen a timestamp. Defaulting to ecn off seems like a reasonable thing to do in this case, so initialized ecn_ok to false.

[ Upstream commit 3557619f ] commit 07bd8df5 (sch_sfq: fix peek() implementation) changed sfq to use generic peek helper. This makes HFSC complain about a non-work-conserving child qdisc, if prio with sfq child is used within hfsc: hfsc peeks into prio qdisc, which will then peek into sfq. returned skb is stashed in sch->gso_skb. Next, hfsc tries to dequeue from prio, but prio will call sfq dequeue directly, which may return NULL instead of previously peeked-at skb. Have prio call qdisc_dequeue_peeked, so sfq->dequeue() is not called in this case. Cc: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by:

[ Upstream commit 797fd391 ] TCP in some cases uses different global (raw) socket to send RST and ACK. The transparent flag is not set there. Currently, it is a problem for rerouting after the previous change. Fix it by simplifying the checks in ip_route_me_harder and use FLOWI_FLAG_ANYSRC even for sockets. It looks safe because the initial routing allowed this source address to be used and now we just have to make sure the packet is rerouted. As a side effect this also allows rerouting for normal raw sockets that use spoofed source addresses which was not possible even before we eliminated the ip_route_input call. Signed-off-by:

[ Upstream commit 97a80410 ] As rt_iif represents input device even for packets coming from loopback with output route, it is not an unique key specific to input routes. Now rt_route_iif has such role, it was fl.iif in 2.6.38, so better to change the checks at some places to save CPU cycles and to restore 2.6.38 semantics. compare_keys: - input routes: only rt_route_iif matters, rt_iif is same - output routes: only rt_oif matters, rt_iif is not used for matching in __ip_route_output_key - now we are back to 2.6.38 state ip_route_input_common: - matching rt_route_iif implies input route - compared to 2.6.38 we eliminated one rth->fl.oif check because it was not needed even for 2.6.38 compare_hash_inputs: Only the change here is not an optimization, it has effect only for output routes. I assume I'm restoring the original intention to ignore oif, it was using fl.iif - now we are back to 2.6.38 state Signed-off-by:

[ Upstream commit 20e6074e ] Dave Jones reported a lockdep splat triggered by an arp_process() call from parp_redo(). Commit faa9dcf7 (arp: RCU changes) is the origin of the bug, since it assumed arp_process() was called under rcu_read_lock(), which is not true in this particular path.

commit 48058481 upstream. Problem: Existing RPORT state machine continues witg FLOGI/PLOGI process only after it receices beacon from other end. Once claiming stage is over (either clain notify or clain repose), beacon is sent and state machine enters into operational mode where it initiates the rlogin process (FLOGI/PLOGI) to the peer but before this rlogin is initiated, exitsing implementation checks if it received beacon from other end, it beacon is not received yet, rlogin process is not initiated. Other end initiates FLOGI but peer end keeps on rejecting FLOGI, hence after 3 retries other end deletes associated rport, then sends a beacon. Once the beacon is received, peer end now initiates rlogin to the peer end but since associated rport is deleted FLOGI is neither accepted nor the reject response send out because rport is deleted. Hence unable to proceed withg FLOGI/PLOGI process and fails to establish VN2VN connection. Fix: VN2VN spec is not standard yet but based on exitsing collateral on T11, it appears that, both end shall send beacon and enter into 'operational mode' without explictly waiting for beacon from other end. Fix is to allow the RPORT login process as long as respective RPORT is created (as part of claim notification / claim response) even though state of RPORT is INIT. Means don't wait for beacon from peer end, if peer end initiates FLOGI (means peer end exist and responding). Notes: This patch is preparing the FCoE stack for target wrt offload. This is generic patch and harmless even if applied on storage initiator because 'else if' condition of function 'fcoe_oem_found' shall evaluate to TRUE only for targets.

commit b02f0c2e upstream. The following race can occur with qdio devices that use the shared device state change indicator: Device (Shared DSCI) CPU0 CPU1 =============================================================================== 1. DSCI 0 => 1, INT pending 2. Thinint handler * si_used = 1 * Inbound tasklet_schedule * DSCI 1 => 0 3. DSCI 0 => 1, INT pending 4. Thinint handler * si_used = 1 * Inbound tasklet_schedu le => NOP 5. Inbound tasklet run 6. DSCI = 1, INT surpressed 7. DSCI 1 => 0 The race would lead to a stall where new data in the input queue is not recognized so the device stops working in case of no further traffic. Fix the race by resetting the DSCI before scheduling the inbound tasklet so the device generates an interrupt if new data arrives in the above scenario in step 6. Reviewed-by:

commit 94c3dcbb upstream. Explicitly update .dirtied_when on synced inodes, so that they are no longer considered for writeback in the next round. It can prevent both of the following livelock schemes: - while true; do echo data >> f; done - while true; do touch f; done (in theory) The exact livelock condition is, during sync(1): (1) no new inodes are dirtied (2) an inode being actively dirtied On (2), the inode will be tagged and synced with .nr_to_write=LONG_MAX. When finished, it will be redirty_tail()ed because it's still dirty and (.nr_to_write > 0). redirty_tail() won't update its ->dirtied_when on condition (1). The sync work will then revisit it on the next queue_io() and find it eligible again because its old ->dirtied_when predates the sync work start time. We'll do more aggressive "keep writeback as long as we wrote something" logic in wb_writeback(). The "use LONG_MAX .nr_to_write" trick in commit b9543dac ("writeback: avoid livelocking WB_SYNC_ALL writeback") will no longer be enough to stop sync livelock. Reviewed-by:

commit 6e6938b6 upstream. sync(2) is performed in two stages: the WB_SYNC_NONE sync and the WB_SYNC_ALL sync. Identify the first stage with .tagged_writepages and do livelock prevention for it, too. Jan's commit f446daae ("mm: implement writeback livelock avoidance using page tagging") is a partial fix in that it only fixed the WB_SYNC_ALL phase livelock. Although ext4 is tested to no longer livelock with commit f446daae, it may due to some "redirty_tail() after pages_skipped" effect which is by no means a guarantee for _all_ the file systems. Note that writeback_inodes_sb() is called by not only sync(), they are treated the same because the other callers also need livelock prevention. Impact: It changes the order in which pages/inodes are synced to disk. Now in the WB_SYNC_NONE stage, it won't proceed to write the next inode until finished with the current inode. Acked-by:

commit d40dcdb0 upstream. We return ENOMEM from mqueue_get_inode even when we have enough memory. Namely in case the system rlimit of mqueue was reached. This error propagates to mq_queue and user sees the error unexpectedly. So fix this up to properly return EMFILE as described in the manpage: EMFILE The process already has the maximum number of files and message queues open. instead of: ENOMEM Insufficient memory. With the previous patch we just switch to ERR_PTR/PTR_ERR/IS_ERR error handling here. Signed-off-by:

commit aa3d7eef upstream. During the association, the regulatory is updated by country IE that reaps the previously found beacons. The impact is that after a STA disconnects *or* when for any reason a regulatory domain change happens the beacon hint flag is not cleared therefore preventing future beacon hints to be learned. This is important as a regulatory domain change or a restore of regulatory settings would set back the passive scan and no-ibss flags on the channel. This is the right place to do this given that it covers any regulatory domain change. Reviewed-by:

commit e3b73c4a upstream. The patch "xen: use maximum reservation to limit amount of usable RAM" (d312ae87) breaks machines that do not use 'dom0_mem=' argument with: reserve RAM buffer: 000000133f2e2000 - 000000133fffffff (XEN) mm.c:4976:d0 Global bit is set to kernel page fffff8117e (XEN) domain_crash_sync called from entry.S (XEN) Domain 0 (vcpu#0) crashed on cpu#0: ... The reason being that the last E820 entry is created using the 'extra_pages' (which is based on how many pages have been freed). The mentioned git commit sets the initial value of 'extra_pages' using a hypercall which returns the number of pages (if dom0_mem has been used) or -1 otherwise. If the later we return with MAX_DOMAIN_PAGES as basis for calculation: return min(max_pages, MAX_DOMAIN_PAGES); and use it: extra_limit = xen_get_max_pages(); if (extra_limit >= max_pfn) extra_pages = extra_limit - max_pfn; else extra_pages = 0; which means we end up with extra_pages = 128GB in PFNs (33554432) - 8GB in PFNs (2097152, on this specific box, can be larger or smaller), and then we add that value to the E820 making it: Xen: 00000000ff000000 - 0000000100000000 (reserved) Xen: 0000000100000000 - 000000133f2e2000 (usable) which is clearly wrong. It should look as so: Xen: 00000000ff000000 - 0000000100000000 (reserved) Xen: 0000000100000000 - 000000027fbda000 (usable) Naturally this problem does not present itself if dom0_mem=max:X is used.

commit d312ae87 upstream. Use the domain's maximum reservation to limit the amount of extra RAM for the memory balloon. This reduces the size of the pages tables and the amount of reserved low memory (which defaults to about 1/32 of the total RAM). On a system with 8 GiB of RAM with the domain limited to 1 GiB the kernel reports: Before: Memory: 627792k/4472000k available After: Memory: 549740k/11132224k available A increase of about 76 MiB (~1.5% of the unused 7 GiB). The reserved low memory is also reduced from 253 MiB to 32 MiB. The total additional usable RAM is 329 MiB. For dom0, this requires at patch to Xen ('x86: use 'dom0_mem' to limit the number of pages for dom0') (c/s 23790) Signed-off-by:

commit 32ef4384 upstream. This is modeled after the smaps code. It detects transparent hugepages and then does a single gather_stats() for the page as a whole. This has two benifits: 1. It is more efficient since it does many pages in a single shot. 2. It does not have to break down the huge page. Signed-off-by:

commit 3200a8aa upstream. gather_pte_stats() does a number of checks on a target page to see whether it should even be considered for statistics. This breaks that code out in to a separate function so that we can use it in the transparent hugepage case in the next patch. Signed-off-by:
