Stephen Hemminger d1a203eac0 net: add documentation for skb recycling
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.

Al Viro 233e70f422 saner FASYNC handling on file close
As it is, all instances of ->release() for files that have ->fasync()
need to remember to evict file from fasync lists; forgetting that
creates a hole and we actually have a bunch that *does* forget.

So let's keep our lives simple - let __fput() check FASYNC in
file->f_flags and call ->fasync() there if it's been set.  And lose that
crap in ->release() instances - leaving it there is still valid, but we
don't have to bother anymore.

fernando@oss.ntt.co a432226614 xfrm: do not leak ESRCH to user space
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).

Alexey Dobriyan 61e5744849 netfilter: nf_conntrack_proto_gre: switch to register_pernet_gen_subsys()
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.

Alexey Dobriyan 485ac57bc1 netns: add register_pernet_gen_subsys/unregister_pernet_gen_subsys
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.

I found that I was getting errors in dmesg like:
pktgen: WARNING: QUEUE_MAP_CPU disabled because CPU count (8) exceeds number
<4>pktgen: WARNING: of tx queues (8) on eth15

you'll note, 8 really doesn't exceed 8.

This patch seemed to fix the logic errors and also the attempts at
limiting line length in printk (which didn't work anyway)

We have to be careful when we try to unhash the credential in
put_rpccred(), because we're not holding the credcache lock, so the call to
rpcauth_unhash_cred() may fail if someone else has looked the cred up, and
obtained a reference to it.

Trond Myklebust 2a9e1cfa23 SUNRPC: Respond promptly to server TCP resets
If the server sends us an RST error while we're in the TCP_ESTABLISHED
state, then that will not result in a state change, and so the RPC client
ends up hanging forever (see
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11154)

We can intercept the reset by setting up an sk->sk_error_report callback,
which will then allow us to initiate a proper shutdown and retry...

We also make sure that if the send request receives an ECONNRESET, then we
shutdown too...

Arjan van de Ven 44a504c405 wireless: fix regression caused by regulatory config option
The default for the regulatory compatibility option is wrong;
if you picked the default you ended up with a non-functional wifi
system (at least I did on Fedora 9 with iwl4965).
I don't think even the October 2008 releases of the various distros
has the new userland so clearly the default is wrong, and also
we can't just go about deleting this in 2.6.29...

Change the default to "y" and also adjust the config text a little to
reflect this.

This patch fixes regression #11859

Ilpo Järvinen fd6149d332 tcp: Restore ordering of TCP options for the sake of inter-operability
This is not our bug! Sadly some devices cannot cope with the change
of TCP option ordering which was a result of the recent rewrite of
the option code (not that there was some particular reason steming
from the rewrite for the reordering) though any ordering of TCP
options is perfectly legal. Thus we restore the original ordering
to allow interoperability with/through such broken devices and add
some warning about this trap. Since the reordering just happened
without any particular reason, this change shouldn't cost us
anything.

There are already couple of known failure reports (within close
proximity of the last release), so the problem might be more
wide-spread than a single device. And other reports which may
be due to the same problem though the symptoms were less obvious.
Analysis of one of the case revealed (with very high probability)
that sack capability cannot be negotiated as the first option
(SYN never got a response).
