         Scott Talbert.
      
      11) Receiving from certain kinds of devices there won't be a MAC header,
         so there is no MAC header to fixup in the IPSEC code, and if we try

      16) The long ago conversion of the PPP fragmentation code over to
         abstracted SKB list handling wasn't perfect, once we get an
         out of sequence SKB we don't flush the rest of them like we
         should.  From Ben McKeegan.
      
      17) Fix regression of ->ip_summed initialization in sfc driver.
         From Ben Hutchings.

         from Andrzej Kaczmarek.
      
      19) Using _sync variant of work cancellation results in deadlocks,
         use the non _sync variants instead.  From Andre Guedes.
      
      20) Bluetooth rfcomm code had reference counting problems leading
         to crashes, fix from Octavian Purdila.
      
      21) The conversion of netem over to classful qdisc handling added
         two bugs to netem_dequeue(), fixes from Eric Dumazet.
      
      22) Missing pci_iounmap() in ATM Solos driver.  Fix from Julia Lawall.
      
      23) b44_pci_exit() should not have __exit tag since it's invoked from
         non-__exit code.  From Nikola Pajkovsky.
      
      24) The conversion of the neighbour hash tables over to RCU added a
         race, fixed here by adding the necessary reread of tbl->nht, fix
         from Michel Machado.
      
      25) When we added VF (virtual function) attributes for network device
         dumps, this potentially bloats up the size of the dump of one
         network device such that the dump size is too large for the buffer
         allocated by properly written netlink applications.
      
         In particular, if you add 255 VFs to a network device, parts of
         GLIBC stop working.
      
         To fix this, we add an attribute that is used to turn on these
         extended portions of the network device dump.  Sophisticaed
         applications like 'ip' that want to see this stuff  will be changed
         to set the attribute, whereas things like GLIBC that don't care
         about VFs simply will not, and therefore won't be busted by the
         mere presence of VFs on a network device.
      
         Thanks to the tireless work of Greg Rose on this fix.

      Fix autofs compile without CONFIG_COMPAT · 3c761ea0
      Linus Torvalds authored
      The autofs compat handling fix caused a compile failure when
      CONFIG_COMPAT isn't defined.
      
      Instead of adding random #ifdef'fery in autofs, let's just make the
      compat helpers earlier to use: without CONFIG_COMPAT, is_compat_task()
      just hardcodes to zero.
      
      We could probably do something similar for a number of other cases where
      we have #ifdef's in code, but this is the low-hanging fruit.

      autofs: work around unhappy compat problem on x86-64 · a32744d4
      Ian Kent authored
      When the autofs protocol version 5 packet type was added in commit
      5c0a32fc ("autofs4: add new packet type for v5 communications"), it
      obvously tried quite hard to be word-size agnostic, and uses explicitly
      sized fields that are all correctly aligned.
      
      However, with the final "char name[NAME_MAX+1]" array at the end, the
      actual size of the structure ends up being not very well defined:
      because the struct isn't marked 'packed', doing a "sizeof()" on it will
      align the size of the struct up to the biggest alignment of the members
      it has.
      
      And despite all the members being the same, the alignment of them is
      different: a "__u64" has 4-byte alignment on x86-32, but native 8-byte
      alignment on x86-64.  And while 'NAME_MAX+1' ends up being a nice round
      number (256), the name[] array starts out a 4-byte aligned.
      
      End result: the "packed" size of the structure is 300 bytes: 4-byte, but
      not 8-byte aligned.
      
      As a result, despite all the fields being in the same place on all
      architectures, sizeof() will round up that size to 304 bytes on
      architectures that have 8-byte alignment for u64.
      
      Note that this is *not* a problem for 32-bit compat mode on POWER, since
      there __u64 is 8-byte aligned even in 32-bit mode.  But on x86, 32-bit
      and 64-bit alignment is different for 64-bit entities, and as a result
      the structure that has exactly the same layout has different sizes.
      
      So on x86-64, but no other architecture, we will just subtract 4 from
      the size of the structure when running in a compat task.  That way we
      will write the properly sized packet that user mode expects.
      
      Not pretty.  Sadly, this very subtle, and unnecessary, size difference
      has been encoded in user space that wants to read packets of *exactly*
      the right size, and will refuse to touch anything else.

      sfc: Fix assignment of ip_summed for pre-allocated skbs · ff3bc1e7
      Ben Hutchings authored
      When pre-allocating skbs for received packets, we set ip_summed =
      CHECKSUM_UNNCESSARY.  We used to change it back to CHECKSUM_NONE when
      the received packet had an incorrect checksum or unhandled protocol.
      
      Commit bc8acf2c ('drivers/net: avoid
      some skb->ip_summed initializations') mistakenly replaced the latter
      assignment with a DEBUG-only assertion that ip_summed ==
      CHECKSUM_NONE.  This assertion is always false, but it seems no-one
      has exercised this code path in a DEBUG build.
      
      Fix this by moving our assignment of CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY into
      efx_rx_packet_gro().

      ppp: fix 'ppp_mp_reconstruct bad seq' errors · 8a49ad6e
      Ben McKeegan authored
      This patch fixes a (mostly cosmetic) bug introduced by the patch
      'ppp: Use SKB queue abstraction interfaces in fragment processing'
      found here: http://www.spinics.net/lists/netdev/msg153312.html
      
      The above patch rewrote and moved the code responsible for cleaning
      up discarded fragments but the new code does not catch every case
      where this is necessary.  This results in some discarded fragments
      remaining in the queue, and triggering a 'bad seq' error on the
      subsequent call to ppp_mp_reconstruct.  Fragments are discarded
      whenever other fragments of the same frame have been lost.
      This can generate a lot of unwanted and misleading log messages.
      
      This patch also adds additional detail to the debug logging to
      make it clearer which fragments were lost and which other fragments
      were discarded as a result of losses. (Run pppd with 'kdebug 1'
      option to enable debug logging.)

      epoll: ep_unregister_pollwait() can use the freed pwq->whead · 971316f0
      Oleg Nesterov authored
      signalfd_cleanup() ensures that ->signalfd_wqh is not used, but
      this is not enough. eppoll_entry->whead still points to the memory
      we are going to free, ep_unregister_pollwait()->remove_wait_queue()
      is obviously unsafe.
      
      Change ep_poll_callback(POLLFREE) to set eppoll_entry->whead = NULL,
      change ep_unregister_pollwait() to check pwq->whead != NULL under
      rcu_read_lock() before remove_wait_queue(). We add the new helper,
      ep_remove_wait_queue(), for this.
      
      This works because sighand_cachep is SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU and because
      ->signalfd_wqh is initialized in sighand_ctor(), not in copy_sighand.
      ep_unregister_pollwait()->remove_wait_queue() can play with already
      freed and potentially reused ->sighand, but this is fine. This memory
      must have the valid ->signalfd_wqh until rcu_read_unlock().

      epoll: introduce POLLFREE to flush ->signalfd_wqh before kfree() · d80e731e
      Oleg Nesterov authored
      This patch is intentionally incomplete to simplify the review.
      It ignores ep_unregister_pollwait() which plays with the same wqh.
      See the next change.
      
      epoll assumes that the EPOLL_CTL_ADD'ed file controls everything
      f_op->poll() needs. In particular it assumes that the wait queue
      can't go away until eventpoll_release(). This is not true in case
      of signalfd, the task which does EPOLL_CTL_ADD uses its ->sighand
      which is not connected to the file.
      
      This patch adds the special event, POLLFREE, currently only for
      epoll. It expects that init_poll_funcptr()'ed hook should do the
      necessary cleanup. Perhaps it should be defined as EPOLLFREE in
      eventpoll.
      
      __cleanup_sighand() is changed to do wake_up_poll(POLLFREE) if
      ->signalfd_wqh is not empty, we add the new signalfd_cleanup()
      helper.
      
      ep_poll_callback(POLLFREE) simply does list_del_init(task_list).
      This make this poll entry inconsistent, but we don't care. If you
      share epoll fd which contains our sigfd with another process you
      should blame yourself. signalfd is "really special". I simply do
      not know how we can define the "right" semantics if it used with
      epoll.
      
      The main problem is, epoll calls signalfd_poll() once to establish
      the connection with the wait queue, after that signalfd_poll(NULL)
      returns the different/inconsistent results depending on who does
      EPOLL_CTL_MOD/signalfd_read/etc. IOW: apart from sigmask, signalfd
      has nothing to do with the file, it works with the current thread.
      
      In short: this patch is the hack which tries to fix the symptoms.
      It also assumes that nobody can take tasklist_lock under epoll
      locks, this seems to be true.
      
      Note:
      
      	- we do not have wake_up_all_poll() but wake_up_poll()
      	  is fine, poll/epoll doesn't use WQ_FLAG_EXCLUSIVE.
      
      	- signalfd_cleanup() uses POLLHUP along with POLLFREE,
      	  we need a couple of simple changes in eventpoll.c to
      	  make sure it can't be "lost".

      Quoth Chris:
       "This is later than I wanted because I got backed up running through
        btrfs bugs from the Oracle QA teams.  But they are all bug fixes that
        we've queued and tested since rc1.
      
        Nothing in particular stands out, this just reflects bug fixing and QA
        done in parallel by all the btrfs developers.  The most user visible
        of these is:
      
          Btrfs: clear the extent uptodate bits during parent transid failures
      
        Because that helps deal with out of date drives (say an iscsi disk
        that has gone away and come back).  The old code wasn't always
        properly retrying the other mirror for this type of failure."

      I don't even live in the same country as any of my PA-RISC hardware
      these days, so the odds of me touching the code are pretty low.
      (Also re-order things to ensure jejb gets CC'd since he's been the
      primary maintainer for the last few years.)
