2010-06-16ehea: Fix kernel deadlock in DLPAR-mem processingJan-Bernd Themann
Port reset operations and memory add/remove operations need to be serialized to avoid a kernel deadlock. The deadlock is caused by calling the napi_disable() function twice. Therefore we have to employ the dlpar_mem_lock in the ehea_reset_port function as well Signed-off-by: Jan-Bernd Themann <themann@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2010-06-16ehea: fix delayed packet processingJan-Bernd Themann
In the eHEA poll function an rmb() is required. Without that some packets on the receive queue are not seen and thus delayed until the next interrupt is handled for the same receive queue.

2010-06-16af_unix: Allow connecting to sockets in other network namespaces.Eric W. Biederman
Remove the restriction that only allows connecting to a unix domain socket identified by unix path that is in the same network namespace. Crossing network namespaces is always tricky and we did not support this at first, because of a strict policy of don't mix the namespaces. Later after Pavel proposed this we did not support this because no one had performed the audit to make certain using unix domain sockets across namespaces is safe. What fundamentally makes connecting to af_unix sockets in other namespaces is safe is that you have to have the proper permissions on the unix domain socket inode that lives in the filesystem. If you want strict isolation you just don't create inodes where unfriendlys can get at them, or with permissions that allow unfriendlys to open them. All nicely handled for us by the mount namespace and other standard file system facilities. I looked through unix domain sockets and they are a very controlled environment so none of the work that goes on in dev_forward_skb to make crossing namespaces safe appears needed, we are not loosing controll of the skb and so do not need to set up the skb to look like it is comming in fresh from the outside world. Further the fields in struct unix_skb_parms should not have any problems crossing network namespaces. Now that we handle SCM_CREDENTIALS in a way that gives useable values across namespaces. There does not appear to be any operational problems with encouraging the use of unix domain sockets across containers either. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

2010-06-16af_unix: Allow SO_PEERCRED to work across namespaces.Eric W. Biederman
Use struct pid and struct cred to store the peer credentials on struct sock.

2010-06-16user_ns: Introduce user_nsmap_uid and user_ns_map_gid.Eric W. Biederman
Define what happens when a we view a uid from one user_namespace in another user_namepece. - If the user namespaces are the same no mapping is necessary. - For most cases of difference use overflowuid and overflowgid, the uid and gid currently used for 16bit apis when we have a 32bit uid that does fit in 16bits. Effectively the situation is the same, we want to return a uid or gid that is not assigned to any user. - For the case when we happen to be mapping the uid or gid of the creator of the target user namespace use uid 0 and gid as confusing that user with root is not a problem.

2010-06-16Clear IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE for teql interfacesTom Hughes
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16183 The sch_teql module, which can be used to load balance over a set of underlying interfaces, stopped working after 2.6.30 and has been broken in all kernels since then for any underlying interface which requires the addition of link level headers. The problem is that the transmit routine relies on being able to access the destination address in the skb in order to do address resolution once it has decided which underlying interface it is going to transmit through. In 2.6.31 the IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE flag was introduced, and set by default for all interfaces, which causes the destination address to be released before the transmit routine for the interface is called. The solution is to clear that flag for teql interfaces. Signed-off-by: Tom Hughes <tom@compton.nu> Acked-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2010-06-16syncookies: check decoded options against sysctl settingsFlorian Westphal
Discard the ACK if we find options that do not match current sysctl settings. Previously it was possible to create a connection with sack, wscale, etc. enabled even if the feature was disabled via sysctl. Also remove an unneeded call to tcp_sack_reset() in cookie_check_timestamp: Both call sites (cookie_v4_check, cookie_v6_check) zero "struct tcp_options_received", hand it to tcp_parse_options() (which does not change tcp_opt->num_sacks/dsack) and then call cookie_check_timestamp(). Even if num_sacks/dsacks were changed, the structure is allocated on the stack and after cookie_check_timestamp returns only a few selected members are copied to the inet_request_sock.

2010-06-16gianfar: Fix setup of RX time stampingManfred Rudigier
Previously the RCTRL_TS_ENABLE bit was set unconditionally. However, if the RCTRL_TS_ENABLE is set without TMR_CTRL[TE], the driver does not work properly on some boards (Anton had problems with the MPC8313ERDB and MPC8568EMDS). With this patch the bit will only be set if requested from user space with the SIOCSHWTSTAMP ioctl command, meaning that time stamping is disabled during normal operation. Users who are not interested in time stamps will not experience problems with buggy CPU revisions or performance drops any more. The setting of TMR_CTRL[TE] is still up to the user. This is considered safe because users wanting HW timestamps must initialize the eTSEC clock first anyway, e.g. with the recently submitted PTP clock driver.

2010-06-15net: NET_SKB_PAD should depend on L1_CACHE_BYTESEric Dumazet
In old kernels, NET_SKB_PAD was defined to 16. Then commit d6301d3dd1c2 (net: Increase default NET_SKB_PAD to 32), and commit 18e8c134f4e9 (net: Increase NET_SKB_PAD to 64 bytes) increased it to 64. While first patch was governed by network stack needs, second was more driven by performance issues on current hardware. Real intent was to align data on a cache line boundary. So use max(32, L1_CACHE_BYTES) instead of 64, to be more generic. Remove microblaze and powerpc own NET_SKB_PAD definitions. Thanks to Alexander Duyck and David Miller for their comments.
