<id>urn:sha1:55db4c64eddf37e31279ec15fe90314713bc9cfa</id>
<content type='text'>
This reverts commit b1c43f82c5aa265442f82dba31ce985ebb7aa71c.

It was broken in so many ways, and results in random odd pty issues.

It re-introduced the buggy schedule_work() in flush_to_ldisc() that can
cause endless work-loops (see commit a5660b41af6a: "tty: fix endless
work loop when the buffer fills up").

It also used an "unsigned int" return value fo the -&gt;receive_buf()
function, but then made multiple functions return a negative error code,
and didn't actually check for the error in the caller.

And it didn't actually work at all.  BenH bisected down odd tty behavior
to it:
  "It looks like the patch is causing some major malfunctions of the X
   server for me, possibly related to PTYs.  For example, cat'ing a
   large file in a gnome terminal hangs the kernel for -minutes- in a
   loop of what looks like flush_to_ldisc/workqueue code, (some ftrace
   data in the quoted bits further down).

   ...

   Some more data: It -looks- like what happens is that the
   flush_to_ldisc work queue entry constantly re-queues itself (because
   the PTY is full ?) and the workqueue thread will basically loop
   forver calling it without ever scheduling, thus starving the consumer
   process that could have emptied the PTY."

which is pretty much exactly the problem we fixed in a5660b41af6a.

Milton Miller pointed out the 'unsigned int' issue.

<title>net: tracepoint of net_dev_xmit sees freed skb and causes panic</title>

<id>urn:sha1:ec764bf083a6ff396234351b51fd236f53c903bf</id>
<content type='text'>
Because there is a possibility that skb is kfree_skb()ed and zero cleared
after ndo_start_xmit, we should not see the contents of skb like skb-&gt;len and
skb-&gt;dev-&gt;name after ndo_start_xmit. But trace_net_dev_xmit does that
and causes panic by NULL pointer dereference.
This patch fixes trace_net_dev_xmit not to see the contents of skb directly.

If you want to reproduce this panic,

1. Get tracepoint of net_dev_xmit on
2. Create 2 guests on KVM
2. Make 2 guests use virtio_net
4. Execute netperf from one to another for a long time as a network burden
5. host will panic(It takes about 30 minutes)

Currently, user-space cannot determine if a 0 tcp_vlan_tci
means there is no VLAN tag or the VLAN ID was zero.

Add flag to make this explicit.  User-space can check for
TP_STATUS_VLAN_VALID || tp_vlan_tci &gt; 0, which will be backwards
compatible. Older could would have just checked for tp_vlan_tci,
so it will work no worse than before.

Commit 0a35d36 ("cfg80211: Use capability info to detect mesh beacons")
assumed that probe response with both ESS and IBSS bits cleared
means that the frame was sent by a mesh sta.

However, these capabilities are also being used in the p2p_find phase,
and the mesh-validation broke it.

Rename the WLAN_CAPABILITY_IS_MBSS macro, and verify that mesh ies
exist before assuming this frame was sent by a mesh sta.
