#1
Until kernel ver. 2.6.21 (including) cancel_rearming_delayed_work()
required a work function should always (unconditionally) rearm with
delay > 0 - otherwise it would endlessly loop. This patch replaces
this function with cancel_delayed_work(). Later kernel versions don't
require this, so here it's only for uniformity.
#2
After deleting a timer in cancel_[rearming_]delayed_work() there could
stay a last skb queued in npinfo->txq causing a memory leak after
kfree(npinfo).

If sky2 device poll routine is called from netpoll_send_skb, it would
deadlock. The netpoll_send_skb held the netif_tx_lock, and the poll
routine could acquire it to clean up skb's. Other drivers might use
same locking model.
The driver is correct, netpoll should not introduce more locking
problems than it causes already. So change the code to drop lock
before calling poll handler.

sctp_sock_migrate() grabs the socket lock on a newly allocated socket while
holding the socket lock on an old socket. lockdep worries that this might
be a recursive lock attempt.
task/3026 is trying to acquire lock:
(sk_lock-AF_INET){--..}, at: [<ffffffff88105b8c>] sctp_sock_migrate+0x2e3/0x327 [sctp]
but task is already holding lock:
(sk_lock-AF_INET){--..}, at: [<ffffffff8810891f>] sctp_accept+0xdf/0x1e3 [sctp]
This patch tells lockdep that this locking is safe by using
lock_sock_nested().

Having walked through the entire skbuff, skb_seq_read would leave the
last fragment mapped. As a consequence, the unwary caller would leak
kmaps, and proceed with preempt_count off by one. The only (kind of
non-intuitive) workaround is to use skb_seq_read_abort.
This patch makes sure skb_seq_read always unmaps frag_data after
having cycled through the skb's paged part.

This moves the local_irq_enable() call in net_rx_action() to before
calling the CONFIG_NET_DMA's dma_async_memcpy_issue_pending() rather
than after. This shortens the irq disabled window and allows for DMA
drivers that need to do their own irq hold.

tcp_read_sock() currently assumes that the recv_actor() only returns
number of bytes copied. For network splice receive, we may have to
return an error in some cases. So allow the actor to return a negative

The tipc netlink config handler uses the nlmsg_pid from the
request header as destination for its reply. If the application
initialized nlmsg_pid to 0, the reply is looped back to the kernel,
causing hangup. Fix: use nlmsg_pid of the skb that triggered the
request.

There is no realistic situation to change helper (Who wants IRC helper to
track FTP traffic ?). Moreover, if we want to do that, we need to fix race
issue by nfctnetlink and running helper. That will add overhead to packet
processing. It wouldn't pay. So this rejects the request to change
helper. The requests to add or remove helper are accepted as ever.

This is the split out of the patch that we agreed I should split
out from my last patch. It changes space_left to be computed in the same
way the to variable is. I know we talked about changing space_left to an
int, but I think size_t is more appropriate, since we should never have
negative space in our buffer, and computing using offsetof means space_left
should now never drop below zero.

I noted the other day while looking at a bug that was ostensibly
in some perl networking library, that we strictly avoid allowing getsockopt
operations to complete if we pass in oversized buffers. This seems to make
libraries like Perl::NET malfunction since it seems to allocate oversized
buffers for use in several operations. It also seems to be out of line with
the way udp, tcp and ip getsockopt routines handle buffer input (since the
*optlen pointer in both an input and an output and gets set to the length
of the data that we copy into the buffer). This patch brings our getsockopt
helpers into line with other protocols, and allows us to accept oversized
buffers for our getsockopt operations. Tested by me with good results.

ip_vs currently fails to reset its ip_vs_sync_state variable if the
sync thread fails to start properly. The result is that the kernel
will report a running daemon when their actuall is none.
If you issue the following commands:
1. ipvsadm --start-daemon master --mcast-interface bla
2. ipvsadm -L --daemon
3. ipvsadm --stop-daemon master
Assuming that bla is not an actual interface, step 2 should return no
data, but instead returns:
$ ipvsadm -L --daemon
master sync daemon (mcast=bla, syncid=0)

Commit 164891aadf broke RTT
sampling of congestion control modules. Inaccurate timestamps
could be fed to them without providing any way for them to
identify such cases. Previously RTT sampler was called only if
FLAG_RETRANS_DATA_ACKED was not set filtering inaccurate
timestamps nicely. In addition, the new behavior could give an
invalid timestamp (zero) to RTT sampler if only skbs with
TCPCB_RETRANS were ACKed. This solves both problems.

The recent patch that added ipv6_hwtype is broken on tuntap tunnels.
Indeed, it's broken on any device that does not pass the ipv6_hwtype
test.
The reason is that the original test only applies to autoconfiguration,
not IPv6 support. IPv6 support is allowed on any device. In fact,
even with the ipv6_hwtype patch applied you can still add IPv6 addresses
to any interface that doesn't pass thw ipv6_hwtype test provided that
they have a sufficiently large MTU. This is a serious problem because
come deregistration time these devices won't be cleaned up properly.
I've gone back and looked at the rationale for the patch. It appears
that the real problem is that we were creating IPv6 devices even if the
MTU was too small. So here's a patch which fixes that and reverts the
ipv6_hwtype stuff.
Thanks to Kanru Chen for reporting this issue.

Right now, when we receive a mtu estimate smaller then minim
threshold in the ICMP message, we disable the path mtu discovery
on the transport. This leads to the never increasing sctp fragmentation
point even when the real path mtu has increased.

Currently, if the socket is owned by the user, we drop the ICMP
message. As a result SCTP forgets that path MTU changed and
never adjusting it's estimate. This causes all subsequent
packets to be fragmented. With this patch, we'll flag the association
that it needs to udpate it's estimate based on the already updated
routing information.
