      bonding: properly unset current_arp_slave on slave link up · 5a430974
      Veaceslav Falico authored
      When a slave comes up, we're unsetting the current_arp_slave without
      removing active flags from it, which can lead to situations where we have
      more than one slave with active flags in active-backup mode.
      
      To avoid this situation we must remove the active flags from a slave before
      removing it as a current_arp_slave.

      phonet: Check input from user before allocating · bcf1b70a
      Sasha Levin authored
      A phonet packet is limited to USHRT_MAX bytes, this is never checked during
      tx which means that the user can specify any size he wishes, and the kernel
      will attempt to allocate that size.
      
      In the good case, it'll lead to the following warning, but it may also cause
      the kernel to kick in the OOM and kill a random task on the server.

      tcp: tcp_sendpages() should call tcp_push() once · 35f9c09f
      Eric Dumazet authored
      commit 2f533844 (tcp: allow splice() to build full TSO packets) added
      a regression for splice() calls using SPLICE_F_MORE.
      
      We need to call tcp_flush() at the end of the last page processed in
      tcp_sendpages(), or else transmits can be deferred and future sends
      stall.
      
      Add a new internal flag, MSG_SENDPAGE_NOTLAST, acting like MSG_MORE, but
      with different semantic.
      
      For all sendpage() providers, its a transparent change. Only
      sock_sendpage() and tcp_sendpages() can differentiate the two different
      flags provided by pipe_to_sendpage()

      ipv6: fix array index in ip6_mc_add_src() · 78d50217
      RongQing.Li authored
      Convert array index from the loop bound to the loop index.
      
      And remove the void type conversion to ip6_mc_del1_src() return
      code, seem it is unnecessary, since ip6_mc_del1_src() does not
      use __must_check similar attribute, no compiler will report the
      warning when it is removed.

      mlx4: allocate just enough pages instead of always 4 pages · 117980c4
      Thadeu Lima de Souza Cascardo authored
      The driver uses a 2-order allocation, which is too much on architectures
      like ppc64, which has a 64KiB page. This particular allocation is used
      for large packet fragments that may have a size of 512, 1024, 4096 or
      fill the whole allocation. So, a minimum size of 16384 is good enough
      and will be the same size that is used in architectures of 4KiB sized
      pages.
      
      This will avoid allocation failures that we see when the system is under
      stress, but still has plenty of memory, like the one below.
      
      This will also allow us to set the interface MTU to higher values like
      9000, which was not possible on ppc64 without this patch.
