2010-09-22net: Move "struct net" declaration inside the __KERNEL__ macro guardOllie Wild
This patch reduces namespace pollution by moving the "struct net" declaration out of the userspace-facing portion of linux/netlink.h. It has no impact on the kernel. (This came up because we have several C++ applications which use "net" as a namespace name.) Signed-off-by: Ollie Wild <aaw@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2010-09-22netfilter: nf_conntrack_defrag: check socket type before touching nodefrag flagJiri Olsa
we need to check proper socket type within ipv4_conntrack_defrag function before referencing the nodefrag flag. For example the tun driver receive path produces skbs with AF_UNSPEC socket type, and so current code is causing unwanted fragmented packets going out.

2010-09-22netfilter: fix ipt_REJECT TCP RST routing for indev == outdevChangli Gao
ip_route_me_harder can't create the route cache when the outdev is the same with the indev for the skbs whichout a valid protocol set. __mkroute_input functions has this check: 1998 if (skb->protocol != htons(ETH_P_IP)) { 1999 /* Not IP (i.e. ARP). Do not create route, if it is 2000 * invalid for proxy arp. DNAT routes are always valid. 2001 * 2002 * Proxy arp feature have been extended to allow, ARP 2003 * replies back to the same interface, to support 2004 * Private VLAN switch technologies. See arp.c. 2005 */ 2006 if (out_dev == in_dev && 2007 IN_DEV_PROXY_ARP_PVLAN(in_dev) == 0) { 2008 err = -EINVAL; 2009 goto cleanup; 2010 } 2011 } This patch gives the new skb a valid protocol to bypass this check. In order to make ipt_REJECT work with bridges, you also need to enable ip_forward. This patch also fixes a regression. When we used skb_copy_expand(), we didn't have this issue stated above, as the protocol was properly set.

2010-09-22bdi: Fix warnings in __mark_inode_dirty for /dev/zero and friendsJan Kara
Inodes of devices such as /dev/zero can get dirty for example via utime(2) syscall or due to atime update. Backing device of such inodes (zero_bdi, etc.) is however unable to handle dirty inodes and thus __mark_inode_dirty complains. In fact, inode should be rather dirtied against backing device of the filesystem holding it. This is generally a good rule except for filesystems such as 'bdev' or 'mtd_inodefs'. Inodes in these pseudofilesystems are referenced from ordinary filesystem inodes and carry mapping with real data of the device. Thus for these inodes we have to use inode->i_mapping->backing_dev_info as we did so far. We distinguish these filesystems by checking whether sb->s_bdi points to a non-trivial backing device or not. Example: Assume we have an ext3 filesystem on /dev/sda1 mounted on /. There's a device inode A described by a path "/dev/sdb" on this filesystem. This inode will be dirtied against backing device "8:0" after this patch. bdev filesystem contains block device inode B coupled with our inode A. When someone modifies a page of /dev/sdb, it's B that gets dirtied and the dirtying happens against the backing device "8:16". Thus both inodes get filed to a correct bdi list.

2010-09-22char: Mark /dev/zero and /dev/kmem as not capable of writebackJan Kara

2010-09-22drm/ttm: Clear the ghost cpu_writers flag on ttm_buffer_object_transfer.Francisco Jerez
It makes sense for a BO to move after a process has requested exclusive RW access on it (e.g. because the BO used to be located in unmappable VRAM and we intercepted the CPU access from the fault handler). If we let the ghost object inherit cpu_writers from the original object, ttm_bo_release_list() will raise a kernel BUG when the ghost object is destroyed. This can be reproduced with the nouveau driver on nv5x.

2010-09-21ip: fix truesize mismatch in ip fragmentationEric Dumazet
Special care should be taken when slow path is hit in ip_fragment() : When walking through frags, we transfert truesize ownership from skb to frags. Then if we hit a slow_path condition, we must undo this or risk uncharging frags->truesize twice, and in the end, having negative socket sk_wmem_alloc counter, or even freeing socket sooner than expected. Many thanks to Nick Bowler, who provided a very clean bug report and test program. Thanks to Jarek for reviewing my first patch and providing a V2 While Nick bisection pointed to commit 2b85a34e911 (net: No more expensive sock_hold()/sock_put() on each tx), underlying bug is older (2.6.12-rc5) A side effect is to extend work done in commit b2722b1c3a893e (ip_fragment: also adjust skb->truesize for packets not owned by a socket) to ipv6 as well.

This problem does not happen if kernel threads are in root group as root group is statically allocated at device initialization time and we don't hit this piece of code. Fix it by delaying the filling of major and minor number information of device in blk_group. Initially a blk_group is created with 0 as device information and this information is filled later once some more IO comes in from same group.

2010-09-20sparc64: Fix race in signal instruction flushing.David S. Miller
If another cpu does a very wide munmap() on the signal frame area, it can tear down the page table hierarchy from underneath us. Borrow an idea from the 64-bit fault path's get_user_insn(), and disable cross call interrupts during the page table traversal to lock them in place while we operate.

2010-09-21percpu: fix pcpu_last_unit_cpuTejun Heo
pcpu_first/last_unit_cpu are used to track which cpu has the first and last units assigned. This in turn is used to determine the span of a chunk for man/unmap cache flushes and whether an address belongs to the first chunk or not in per_cpu_ptr_to_phys(). When the number of possible CPUs isn't power of two, a chunk may contain unassigned units towards the end of a chunk. The logic to determine pcpu_last_unit_cpu was incorrect when there was an unused unit at the end of a chunk. It failed to ignore the unused unit and assigned the unused marker NR_CPUS to pcpu_last_unit_cpu. This was discovered through kdump failure which was caused by malfunctioning per_cpu_ptr_to_phys() on a kvm setup with 50 possible CPUs by CAI Qian.

2010-09-21lguest: update comments to reflect LHCALL_LOAD_GDT_ENTRY.Rusty Russell
We used to have a hypercall which reloaded the entire GDT, then we switched to one which loaded a single entry (to match the IDT code). Some comments were not updated, so fix them. Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au> Reported by: Eviatar Khen <eviatarkhen@gmail.com>
2010-09-21virtio: console: Prevent userspace from submitting NULL buffersAmit Shah
A userspace could submit a buffer with 0 length to be written to the host. Prevent such a situation. This was not needed previously, but recent changes in the way write() works exposed this condition to trigger a virtqueue event to the host, causing a NULL buffer to be sent across.

2010-09-21virtio: console: Fix poll blocking even though there is data to readHans de Goede
I found this while working on a Linux agent for spice, the symptom I was seeing was select blocking on the spice vdagent virtio serial port even though there were messages queued up there. virtio_console's port_fops_poll checks port->inbuf != NULL to determine if read won't block. However if an application reads enough bytes from inbuf through port_fops_read, to empty the current port->inbuf, port->inbuf will be NULL even though there may be buffers left in the virtqueue. This causes poll() to block even though there is data to be read, this patch fixes this by using will_read_block(port) instead of the port->inbuf != NULL check.
