2010-02-17ethtool: Don't flush n-tuple list from ethtool_reset()Ben Hutchings
The n-tuple list should be flushed if and only if the ETH_RESET_FILTER flag is set and the driver is able to reset filtering/flow direction hardware without also resetting a component whose flag is not set. This test is best left to the driver. Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <bhutchings@solarflare.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2010-02-16percpu: add __percpu sparse annotations to netTejun Heo
Add __percpu sparse annotations to net. These annotations are to make sparse consider percpu variables to be in a different address space and warn if accessed without going through percpu accessors. This patch doesn't affect normal builds. The macro and type tricks around snmp stats make things a bit interesting. DEFINE/DECLARE_SNMP_STAT() macros mark the target field as __percpu and SNMP_UPD_PO_STATS() macro is updated accordingly. All snmp_mib_*() users which used to cast the argument to (void **) are updated to cast it to (void __percpu **). Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Acked-by: David S.

2010-02-16net neigh: Decouple per interface neighbour table controls from binary sysctlsEric W. Biederman
Stop computing the number of neighbour table settings we have by counting the number of binary sysctls. This behaviour was silly and meant that we could not add another neighbour table setting without also adding another binary sysctl. Don't pass the binary sysctl path for neighour table entries into neigh_sysctl_register. These parameters are no longer used and so are just dead code. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

xfrm_state_clone calls kfree instead of xfrm_state_put to free a failed state. Depending on the state of the failed state, it can cause leaks to things like module references.

2010-02-15netfilter: CONFIG_COMPAT: allow delta to exceed 32767Florian Westphal
with 32 bit userland and 64 bit kernels, it is unlikely but possible that insertion of new rules fails even tough there are only about 2000 iptables rules. This happens because the compat delta is using a short int. Easily reproducible via "iptables -m limit" ; after about 2050 rules inserting new ones fails with -ELOOP. Note that compat_delta included 2 bytes of padding on x86_64, so structure size remains the same. Signed-off-by: Florian Westphal <fw@strlen.de> Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net>

2010-02-12mac80211: fix handling of null-rate control in rate_control_get_rateJuuso Oikarinen
For hardware with IEEE80211_HW_HAS_RATE_CONTROL the rate controller is not initialized. However, calling functions such as ieee80211_beacon_get result in the rate_control_get_rate function getting called, which is accessing (in this case uninitialized) rate control structures unconditionally. Fix by exiting the function before setting the rates for HW with IEEE80211_HW_HAS_RATE_CONTROL set. The initialization of the ieee80211_tx_info struct is intentionally still executed.

2010-02-12dccp: allow probing of CCID-array lengthGerrit Renker
This fixes a problem in the DCCP getsockopt() API: currently there is no way for a user to a priori know the number of built-in CCIDs, other than trying DCCP_SOCKOPT_AVAILABLE_CCIDS in a loop, incrementing the option length until EINVAL is no longer returned. This patch truncates the array to the user-provided length. No copy is made when the length is <= 0. Due to the length restriction in do_dccp_getsockopt() to sizeof(int), the minimum array length remains 4, which is a reasonable default (only 3 CCIDs, CCID-2..4, are currently defined).
