2006-02-09[NETLINK]: Fix a severe bugAlexey Kuznetsov
netlink overrun was broken while improvement of netlink. Destination socket is used in the place where it was meant to be source socket, so that now overrun is never sent to user netlink sockets, when it should be, and it even can be set on kernel socket, which results in complete deadlock of rtnetlink. Suggested fix is to restore status quo passing source socket as additional argument to netlink_attachskb(). A little explanation: overrun is set on a socket, when it failed to receive some message and sender of this messages does not or even have no way to handle this error. This happens in two cases: 1. when kernel sends something. Kernel never retransmits and cannot wait for buffer space. 2. when user sends a broadcast and the message was not delivered to some recipients.

2006-02-08[IPV6]: Address autoconfiguration does not work after device down/up cycleKristian Slavov
If you set network interface down and up again, the IPv6 address autoconfiguration does not work. 'ip addr' shows that the link-local address is in tentative state. We don't even react to periodical router advertisements. During NETDEV_DOWN we clear IF_READY, and we don't set it back in NETDEV_UP. While starting to perform DAD on the link-local address, we notice that the device is not in IF_READY, and we abort autoconfiguration process (which would eventually send router solicitations).

2006-02-08[ARM] 3311/1: clean up include/asm-arm/mutex.hNicolas Pitre
Patch from Nicolas Pitre Since: if (unlikely(__res || __ex_flag)) produces worse code on ARM than: if (unlikely(__res | __ex_flag)) I therefore made it more explicit: __res |= __ex_flag; if (unlikely(__res != 0)) so it is not seen as a typo again. Also made everything static inline rather than macros for better readability (both produce the same code after all). And finally added missing \t from multi-line assembly code.

negative Patch from Nicolas Pitre The pre ARMv5 implementation can be aborted if an exception occurs in the middle of it. Because of that, the ARMv6 implementation doesn't re-attempt the operation on a failed strex either. Let's make this transient nature of such a false positive more explicit in the definition.

2006-02-08[ARM] 3309/1: disable the pre-ARMv5 NPTL kernel helper in the non MMU caseNicolas Pitre
Patch from Nicolas Pitre The cmpxchg emulation on pre-ARMv5 relies on user code executed from a kernel address. If the operation cannot complete atomically, it is aborted from the usr_entry macro by clearing the Z flag. This clearing of the Z flag is done whenever the user pc is above TASK_SIZE. However this "pc >= TASK_SIZE" test cannot work in the non MMU case. Worse: the current code will corrupt the Z flag on every entry to the kernel. Let's disable it in the non MMU case for now. Using NPTL on non MMU targets needs to be worked out anyway. Signed-off-by: Nicolas Pitre <nico@cam.org> Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
