2008-10-01ipv4: Make inet_sock.h independent of route.hKOVACS Krisztian
inet_iif() in inet_sock.h requires route.h. Since users of inet_iif() usually require other route.h functionality anyway this patch moves inet_iif() to route.h. Signed-off-by: KOVACS Krisztian <hidden@sch.bme.hu> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2008-10-01ipv4: Allow binding to non-local addresses if IP_TRANSPARENT is setTóth László Attila
Setting IP_TRANSPARENT is not really useful without allowing non-local binds for the socket. To make user-space code simpler we allow these binds even if IP_TRANSPARENT is set but IP_FREEBIND is not.

2008-10-01ipv4: Implement IP_TRANSPARENT socket optionKOVACS Krisztian
This patch introduces the IP_TRANSPARENT socket option: enabling that will make the IPv4 routing omit the non-local source address check on output. Setting IP_TRANSPARENT requires NET_ADMIN capability. Signed-off-by: KOVACS Krisztian <hidden@sch.bme.hu> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2008-10-01ipv4: Loosen source address check on IPv4 outputJulian Anastasov
ip_route_output() contains a check to make sure that no flows with non-local source IP addresses are routed. This obviously makes using such addresses impossible. This patch introduces a flowi flag which makes omitting this check possible. The new flag provides a way of handling transparent and non-transparent connections differently.

2008-10-01net: BUG instead of corrupting memory in pskb_expand_headHerbert Xu
If the caller of pskb_expand_head specifies a negative nhead we'll silently overwrite other people's memory. This patch makes it BUG instead. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2008-10-01ipsec: Put dumpers on the dump listHerbert Xu
Herbert Xu came up with the idea and the original patch to make xfrm_state dump list contain also dumpers: As it is we go to extraordinary lengths to ensure that states don't go away while dumpers go to sleep. It's much easier if we just put the dumpers themselves on the list since they can't go away while they're going. I've also changed the order of addition on new states to prevent a never-ending dump. Timo Teräs improved the patch to apply cleanly to latest tree, modified iteration code to be more readable by using a common struct for entries in the list, implemented the same idea for xfrm_policy dumping and moved the af_key specific "last" entry caching to af_key.

2008-10-01net: add skb_recycle_check() to enable netdriver skb recyclingLennert Buytenhek
This patch adds skb_recycle_check(), which can be used by a network driver after transmitting an skb to check whether this skb can be recycled as a receive buffer. skb_recycle_check() checks that the skb is not shared or cloned, and that it is linear and its head portion large enough (as determined by the driver) to be recycled as a receive buffer. If these conditions are met, it does any necessary reference count dropping and cleans up the skbuff as if it just came from __alloc_skb().

Since call to function sctp_sf_abort_violation() need paramter 'arg' with 'struct sctp_chunk' type, it will read the chunk type and chunk length from the chunk_hdr member of chunk. But call to sctp_sf_violation_paramlen() always with 'struct sctp_paramhdr' type's parameter, it will be passed to sctp_sf_abort_violation().

2008-09-249p: introduce missing kfreeJulia Lawall
Error handling code following a kmalloc should free the allocated data. The semantic match that finds the problem is as follows: (http://www.emn.fr/x-info/coccinelle/) // <smpl> @r exists@ local idexpression x; statement S; expression E; identifier f,l; position p1,p2; expression *ptr != NULL; @@ ( if ((x@p1 = \(kmalloc\|kzalloc\|kcalloc\)(...)) == NULL) S | x@p1 = \(kmalloc\|kzalloc\|kcalloc\)(...); ... if (x == NULL) S ) <... when != x when != if (...) { <+...x...+> } x->f = E ...> ( return \(0\|<+...x...+>\|ptr\); | return@p2 ...; ) @script:python@ p1 << r.p1; p2 << r.p2; @@ print "* file: %s kmalloc %s return %s" % (p1[0].file,p1[0].line,p2[0].line) // </smpl> Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk> Signed-off-by: Eric Van Hensbergen <ericvh@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org>
2008-09-249p-trans_fd: fix and clean up module init/exit pathsTejun Heo
trans_fd leaked p9_mux_wq on module unload. Fix it. While at it, collapse p9_mux_global_init() into p9_trans_fd_init(). It's easier to follow this way and the global poll_tasks array is about to removed anyway. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Eric Van Hensbergen <ericvh@gmail.com>
2008-09-249p-trans_fd: don't do fs segment mangling in p9_fd_poll()Tejun Heo
p9_fd_poll() is never called with user pointers and f_op->poll() doesn't expect its arguments to be from userland. There's no need to set kernel ds before calling f_op->poll() from p9_fd_poll(). Remove it. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Eric Van Hensbergen <ericvh@gmail.com>

2008-09-249p-trans_fd: fix trans_fd::p9_conn_destroy()Tejun Heo
p9_conn_destroy() first kills all current requests by calling p9_conn_cancel(), then waits for the request list to be cleared by waiting on p9_conn->equeue. After that, polling is stopped and the trans is destroyed. This sequence has a few problems. * Read and write works were never cancelled and the p9_conn can be destroyed while the works are running as r/w works remove requests from the list and dereference the p9_conn from them. * The list emptiness wait using p9_conn->equeue wouldn't trigger because p9_conn_cancel() always clears all the lists and the only way the wait can be triggered is to have another task to issue a request between the slim window between p9_conn_cancel() and the wait, which isn't safe under the current implementation with or without the wait. This patch fixes the problem by first stopping poll, which can schedule r/w works, first and cancle r/w works which guarantees that r/w works are not and will not run from that point and then calling p9_conn_cancel() and do the rest of destruction.

2008-09-249p: implement proper trans module refcounting and unregistrationTejun Heo
9p trans modules aren't refcounted nor were they unregistered properly. Fix it. * Add 9p_trans_module->owner and reference the module on each trans instance creation and put it on destruction. * Protect v9fs_trans_list with a spinlock. This isn't strictly necessary as the list is manipulated only during module loading / unloading but it's a good idea to make the API safe. * Unregister trans modules when the corresponding module is being unloaded. * While at it, kill unnecessary EXPORT_SYMBOL on p9_trans_fd_init().

2008-09-24mac80211: fix led behavior in IBSSEmmanuel Grumbach
This patch fixes the led behavior in IBSS. After we joined an IBSS cell we need to inform the led that we got associated. Although there is no 802.11 association in IBSS mode, the semantic of "There is a link" is relevant. This allows the led to blink in IBSS mode (at least this solves a bug for iwlwifi).

2008-09-24mac80211: clean up rate control APIJohannes Berg
Long awaited, hard work. This patch totally cleans up the rate control API to remove the requirement to include internal headers outside of net/mac80211/. There's one internal use in the PID algorithm left for mesh networking, we'll have to figure out a way to clean that one up and decide how to do the peer link evaluation, possibly independent of the rate control algorithm or via new API. Additionally, ath9k is left using the cross-inclusion hack for now, we will add new API where necessary to make this work properly, but right now I'm not expert enough to do it. It's still off better than before. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

When I split off the action frame handling I made the code drop all action frames we don't want to handle.

2008-09-24mac80211: make master iface not wirelessJohannes Berg
There's no need to register the master netdev with cfg80211, in fact, this is quite dangerous and lead to having to add checks for the master interface all over the config handlers. This patch removes the "ieee80211_ptr" from the master iface in favour of having a small netdev_priv() associated with the master interface that stores the ieee80211_local pointer. Because of this, a lot of code in the configuration handlers can go away. To make this patch easier to verify I have also removed a number of wiphy_priv() calls in favour of getting the sdata first and then the local pointer from that.
