Using ctl paths we can put all the stuff, related to net/core/
sysctl table, into one file and remove all the references on it.
As a good side effect this hides the "core_table" name from
the global scope :)

The appropriate path is prepared right inside this function. It
is prepared similar to how the ctl tables were.
Since the path is modified, it is put on the stack, to avoid
possible races with multiple calls to neigh_sysctl_register() : it
is called by protocols and I didn't find any protection in this
case. Did I overlooked the rtnl lock?.
The stack growth of the neigh_sysctl_register() is 40 bytes. I
believe this is OK, since this is not that much and this function
is not called with the deep stack (device/protocols register).
The device's name is stored on the template to free it later.
This will help with the net namespaces, as each namespace should
have its own set of these ctls.
Besides, this saves ~350 bytes from the neigh template :)

This mainly removes the err variable, as this call always
return the same error code (-ENOBUFS).
Besides, I moved the call to kmalloc() from the *t declaration
into the code (this is confusing when a variable is initialized
with the result of some call) and removed unneeded comment near
the error path.

Currently this size is 16, but as the comment says this
is so only because all the chains (except one) has the
length 1. I think, that some day this may change, so
growing this hash will be much easier.

The sock_wake_async() performs a bit different actions
depending on "how" argument. Unfortunately this argument
ony has numerical magic values.
I propose to give names to their constants to help people
reading this function callers understand what's going on
without looking into this function all the time.
I suppose this is 2.6.25 material, but if it's not (or the
naming seems poor/bad/awful), I can rework it against the
current net-2.6 tree.

This function references sk->sk_prot->xxx for many times.
It turned out, that there's so many code in it, that gcc
cannot always optimize access to sk->sk_prot's fields.
After saving the sk->sk_prot on the stack and comparing
disassembled code, it turned out that the function became
~10 bytes shorter and made less dereferences (on i386 and
x86_64). Stack consumption didn't grow.
Besides, this patch drives most of this function into the
80 columns limit.

This patch adds a separate workqueue for cleaning up a network
namespace. If we use the keventd workqueue to execute cleanup_net(),
there is a problem to unregister devices in IPv6. Indeed the code
that cleans up also schedule work in keventd: as long as cleanup_net()
hasn't return, dst_gc_task() cannot run and as long as dst_gc_task() has
not run, there are still some references pending on the net devices and
cleanup_net() can not unregister and exit the keventd workqueue.

After the previous prep work this just consists of removing checks
limiting the code to work in the initial network namespace, and
updating rtmsg_ifinfo so we can generate events for devices in
something other then the initial network namespace.
Referring to network other network devices like the IFLA_LINK
and IFLA_MASTER attributes do, gets interesting if those network
devices happen to be in other network namespaces. Currently
ifindex numbers are allocated globally so I have taken the path
of least resistance and not still report the information even
though the devices they are talking about are invisible.
If applications start getting confused or when ifindex
numbers become local to the network namespace we may need
to do something different in the future.

disables all of the rtnletlink methods in everything except the

We have a number of copies of dst_discard scattered around the place
which all do the same thing, namely free a packet on the input or
output paths.
This patch deletes all of them except dst_discard and points all the
users to it.
The only non-trivial bit is decnet where it returns an error.
However, conceptually this is identical to the blackhole functions
used in IPv4 and IPv6 which do not return errors. So they should
either all return errors or all return zero. For now I've stuck with
the majority and picked zero as the return value.
It doesn't really matter in practice since few if any driver would
react differently depending on a zero return value or NET_RX_DROP.

Replace all lock_cpu_hotplug/unlock_cpu_hotplug from the kernel and use
get_online_cpus and put_online_cpus instead as it highlights the
refcount semantics in these operations.
The new API guarantees protection against the cpu-hotplug operation, but
it doesn't guarantee serialized access to any of the local data
structures. Hence the changes needs to be reviewed.
In case of pseries_add_processor/pseries_remove_processor, use
cpu_maps_update_begin()/cpu_maps_update_done() as we're modifying the
cpu_present_map there.

When unregistering the rtnl_link_ops, all existing devices using
the ops are destroyed. With nested devices this may lead to a
use-after-free despite the use of for_each_netdev_safe() in case
the upper device is next in the device list and is destroyed
by the NETDEV_UNREGISTER notifier.
The easy fix is to restart scanning the device list after removing
a device. Alternatively we could add new devices to the front of
the list to avoid having dependant devices follow the device they
depend on. A third option would be to only restart scanning if
dev->iflink of the next device matches dev->ifindex of the current
one. For now this seems like the safest solution.
With this patch, the veth rtnl_link_ops unregistration can use
rtnl_link_unregister() directly since it now also handles destruction
of multiple devices at once.

Commit 9cd40029423701c376391da59d2c6469672b4bed (Fix race between
neigh_parms_release and neightbl_fill_parms) introduced device

The neightbl_fill_parms() is called under the write-locked tbl->lock
and accesses the parms->dev. The negh_parm_release() calls the
dev_put(parms->dev) without this lock. This creates a tiny race window
on which the parms contains potentially stale dev pointer.
To fix this race it's enough to move the dev_put() upper under the
tbl->lock, but note, that the parms are held by neighbors and thus can
live after the neigh_parms_release() is called, so we still can have a
parm with bad dev pointer.
I didn't find where the neigh->parms->dev is accessed, but still think
that putting the dev is to be done in a place, where the parms are
really freed. Am I right with that?

Both NetLabel and SELinux (other LSMs may grow to use it as well) rely
on the 'iif' field to determine the receiving network interface of
inbound packets. Unfortunately, at present this field is not
preserved across a skb clone operation which can lead to garbage
values if the cloned skb is sent back through the network stack. This
patch corrects this problem by properly copying the 'iif' field in
__skb_clone() and removing the 'iif' field assignment from
skb_act_clone() since it is no longer needed.
Also, while we are here, put the assignments in the same order as the
offsets to reduce cacheline bounces.

When used function put_cmsg() to copy kernel information to user
application memory, if the memory length given by user application is
not enough, by the bad length calculate of msg.msg_controllen,
put_cmsg() function may cause the msg.msg_controllen to be a large
value, such as 0xFFFFFFF0, so the following put_cmsg() can also write
data to usr application memory even usr has no valid memory to store
this. This may cause usr application memory overflow.
int put_cmsg(struct msghdr * msg, int level, int type, int len, void *data)
{
struct cmsghdr __user *cm
= (__force struct cmsghdr __user *)msg->msg_control;
struct cmsghdr cmhdr;
int cmlen = CMSG_LEN(len);
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
int err;
if (MSG_CMSG_COMPAT & msg->msg_flags)
return put_cmsg_compat(msg, level, type, len, data);
if (cm==NULL || msg->msg_controllen < sizeof(*cm)) {
msg->msg_flags |= MSG_CTRUNC;
return 0; /* XXX: return error? check spec. */
}
if (msg->msg_controllen < cmlen) {
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
msg->msg_flags |= MSG_CTRUNC;
cmlen = msg->msg_controllen;
}
cmhdr.cmsg_level = level;
cmhdr.cmsg_type = type;
cmhdr.cmsg_len = cmlen;
err = -EFAULT;
if (copy_to_user(cm, &cmhdr, sizeof cmhdr))
goto out;
if (copy_to_user(CMSG_DATA(cm), data, cmlen - sizeof(struct cmsghdr)))
goto out;
cmlen = CMSG_SPACE(len);
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
If MSG_CTRUNC flags is set, msg->msg_controllen is less than
CMSG_SPACE(len), "msg->msg_controllen -= cmlen" will cause unsinged int
type msg->msg_controllen to be a large value.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
msg->msg_control += cmlen;
msg->msg_controllen -= cmlen;
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
err = 0;
out:
return err;
}
The same promble exists in put_cmsg_compat(). This patch can fix this

The request_sock_queue's listen_opt is either vmalloc-ed or
kmalloc-ed depending on the number of table entries. Thus it
is expected to be handled properly on free, which is done in
the reqsk_queue_destroy().
However the error path in inet_csk_listen_start() calls
the lite version of reqsk_queue_destroy, called
__reqsk_queue_destroy, which calls the kfree unconditionally.
Fix this and move the __reqsk_queue_destroy into a .c file as
it looks too big to be inline.
As David also noticed, this is an error recovery path only,
so no locking is required and the lopt is known to be not NULL.
reqsk_queue_yank_listen_sk is also now only used in
net/core/request_sock.c so we should move it there too.

Commit fcc5a03ac42564e9e255c1134dda47442289e466:
[NET]: Allow netdev REGISTER/CHANGENAME events to fail
makes the register_netdevice_notifier() handle the error from the
NETDEV_REGISTER event, sent to the registering block.
The bad news is that in this case the notifier block is
not removed from the list, but the error is returned to the
caller. In case the caller is in module init function and
handles this error this can abort the module loading. The
notifier block will be then removed from the kernel, but
will be left in the list. Oops :(
I think that the notifier block should be removed from the
chain in case of error, regardless whether this error is
handled by the caller or not. In the worst case (the error
is _not_ handled) module will not receive the events any
longer.
