Commit 04a4bb55bc ("net: add
skb_recycle_check() to enable netdriver skb recycling") added a
method for network drivers to recycle skbuffs, but while use of
this mechanism was documented in the commit message, it should
really have been added as a docbook comment as well -- this
patch does that.

I noticed that, under certain conditions, ESRCH can be leaked from the
xfrm layer to user space through sys_connect. In particular, this seems
to happen reliably when the kernel fails to resolve a template either
because the AF_KEY receive buffer being used by racoon is full or
because the SA entry we are trying to use is in XFRM_STATE_EXPIRED
state.
However, since this could be a transient issue it could be argued that
EAGAIN would be more appropriate. Besides this error code is not even
documented in the man page for sys_connect (as of man-pages 3.07).

register_pernet_gen_device() can't be used is nf_conntrack_pptp module is
also used (compiled in or loaded).
Right now, proto_gre_net_exit() is called before nf_conntrack_pptp_net_exit().
The former shutdowns and frees GRE piece of netns, however the latter
absolutely needs it to flush keymap. Oops is inevitable.
Switch to shiny new register_pernet_gen_subsys() to get correct ordering in
netns ops list.

netns ops which are registered with register_pernet_gen_device() are
shutdown strictly before those which are registered with
register_pernet_subsys(). Sometimes this leads to opposite (read: buggy)
shutdown ordering between two modules.
Add register_pernet_gen_subsys()/unregister_pernet_gen_subsys() for modules
which aren't elite enough for entry in struct net, and which can't use
register_pernet_gen_device(). PPTP conntracking module is such one.

The link may be up already via the chip's reset strapping, or though action
of U-Boot, or from the last time the interface was brought up. Resetting
the link causes it to go down for several seconds. This can significantly
increase the time from power-on to DHCP completion and a device being
accessible to the network.

The init_phy() function attaches to the PHY, then configures the
SerDes<->TBI link (in SGMII mode). The TBI is on the MDIO bus with the PHY
(sort of) and is accessed via the gianfar's MDIO registers, using the
functions gfar_local_mdio_read/write(), which don't do any locking.
The previously attached PHY will start a work-queue on a timer, and
probably an irq handler as well, which will talk to the PHY and thus use
the MDIO bus. This uses phy_read/write(), which have locking, but not
against the gfar_local_mdio versions.
The result is that PHY code will try to use the MDIO bus at the same time
as the SerDes setup code, corrupting the transfers.
Setting up the SerDes before attaching to the PHY will insure that there is
no race between the SerDes code and *our* PHY, but doesn't fix everything.
Typically the PHYs for all gianfar devices are on the same MDIO bus, which
is associated with the first gianfar device. This means that the first
gianfar's SerDes code could corrupt the MDIO transfers for a different
gianfar's PHY.
The lock used by phy_read/write() is contained in the mii_bus structure,
which is pointed to by the PHY. This is difficult to access from the
gianfar drivers, as there is no link between a gianfar device and the
mii_bus which shares the same MDIO registers. As far as the device layer
and drivers are concerned they are two unrelated devices (which happen to
share registers).
Generally all gianfar devices' PHYs will be on the bus associated with the
first gianfar. But this might not be the case, so simply locking the
gianfar's PHY's mii bus might not lock the mii bus that the SerDes setup
code is going to use.
We solve this by having the code that creates the gianfar platform device
look in the device tree for an mdio device that shares the gianfar's
registers. If one is found the ID of its platform device is saved in the
gianfar's platform data.
A new function in the gianfar mii code, gfar_get_miibus(), can use the bus
ID to search through the platform devices for a gianfar_mdio device with
the right ID. The platform device's driver data is the mii_bus structure,
which the SerDes setup code can use to lock the current bus.

A panic was discovered with bonding when using mode 5 or 6 and trying to
remove the slaves from the bond after the interface was taken down.
When calling 'ifconfig bond0 down' the following happens:
bond_close()
bond_alb_deinitialize()
tlb_deinitialize()
kfree(bond_info->tx_hashtbl)
bond_info->tx_hashtbl = NULL
Unfortunately if there are still slaves in the bond, when removing the
module the following happens:
bonding_exit()
bond_free_all()
bond_release_all()
bond_alb_deinit_slave()
tlb_clear_slave()
tx_hash_table = BOND_ALB_INFO(bond).tx_hashtbl
u32 next_index = tx_hash_table[index].next
As you might guess we panic when trying to access a few entries into the
table that no longer exists.
I experimented with several options (like moving the calls to
tlb_deinitialize somewhere else), but it really makes the most sense to
be part of the bond_close routine. It also didn't seem logical move
tlb_clear_slave around too much, so the simplest option seems to add a
check in tlb_clear_slave to make sure we haven't already wiped the
tx_hashtbl away before searching for all the non-existent hash-table
entries that used to point to the slave as the output interface.

This patch reworks the resource free logic performed at the time
a bonding device is released. This (a) closes two resource leaks, one
for workqueues and one for multicast lists, and (b) improves commonality
of code between the "destroy one" and "destroy all" paths by performing
final free activity via destructor instead of explicitly (and differently)
in each path.
"Sean E. Millichamp" <sean@bruenor.org> reported the workqueue
leak, and included a different patch.
