Pull networking fixes from David Miller: 1) There was a simplification in the ipv6 ndisc packet sending attempted here, which avoided using memory accounting on the per-netns ndisc socket for sending NDISC packets. It did fix some important issues, but it causes regressions so it gets reverted here too. Specifically, the problem with this change is that the IPV6 output path really depends upon there being a valid skb->sk attached. The reason we want to do this change in some form when we figure out how to do it right, is that if a device goes down the ndisc_sk socket send queue will fill up and block NDISC packets that we want to send to other devices too. That's really bad behavior. Hopefully Thomas can come up with a better version of this change. 2) Fix a severe TCP performance regression by reverting a change made to dev_pick_tx() quite some time ago. From Eric Dumazet. 3) TIPC returns wrongly signed error codes, fix from Erik Hugne. 4) Fix OOPS when doing IPSEC over ipv4 tunnels due to orphaning the skb->sk too early. Fix from Li Hongjun. 5) RAW ipv4 sockets can use the wrong routing key during lookup, from Chris Clark. 6) Similar to #1 revert an older change that tried to use plain alloc_skb() for SYN/ACK TCP packets, this broke the netfilter owner mark which needs to see the skb->sk for such frames. From Phil Oester. 7) BNX2x driver bug fixes from Ariel Elior and Yuval Mintz, specifically in the handling of virtual functions. 8) IPSEC path error propagations to sockets is not done properly when we have v4 in v6, and v6 in v4 type rules. Fix from Hannes Frederic Sowa. 9) Fix missing channel context release in mac80211, from Johannes Berg. 10) Fix network namespace handing wrt. SCM_RIGHTS, from Andy Lutomirski. 11) Fix usage of bogus NAPI weight in jme, netxen, and ps3_gelic drivers. From Michal Schmidt. 12) Hopefully a complete and correct fix for the genetlink dump locking and module reference counting. From Pravin B Shelar. 13) sk_busy_loop() must do a cpu_relax(), from Eliezer Tamir. 14) Fix handling of timestamp offset when restoring a snapshotted TCP socket.

Steffen Klassert says: ==================== This pull request fixes some issues that arise when 6in4 or 4in6 tunnels are used in combination with IPsec, all from Hannes Frederic Sowa and a null pointer dereference when queueing packets to the policy hold queue. 1) We might access the local error handler of the wrong address family if 6in4 or 4in6 tunnel is protected by ipsec. Fix this by addind a pointer to the correct local_error to xfrm_state_afinet. 2) Add a helper function to always refer to the correct interpretation of skb->sk. 3) Call skb_reset_inner_headers to record the position of the inner headers when adding a new one in various ipv6 tunnels. This is needed to identify the addresses where to send back errors in the xfrm layer. 4) Dereference inner ipv6 header if encapsulated to always call the right error handler. 5) Choose protocol family by skb protocol to not call the wrong xfrm{4,6}_local_error handler in case an ipv6 sockets is used in ipv4 mode. 6) Partly revert "xfrm: introduce helper for safe determination of mtu" because this introduced pmtu discovery problems. 7) Set skb->protocol on tcp, raw and ip6_append_data genereated skbs. We need this to get the correct mtu informations in xfrm. 8) Fix null pointer dereference in xdst_queue_output. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

vfs: make the dentry cache use the lockref infrastructure

2013-08-29T01:24:59Z

This just replaces the dentry count/lock combination with the lockref structure that contains both a count and a spinlock, and does the mechanical conversion to use the lockref infrastructure. There are no semantic changes here, it's purely syntactic. The reference lockref implementation uses the spinlock exactly the same way that the old dcache code did, and the bulk of this patch is just expanding the internal "d_count" use in the dcache code to use "d_lockref.count" instead. This is purely preparation for the real change to make the reference count updates be lockless during the 3.12 merge window. [ As with the previous commit, this is a rewritten version of a concept originally from Waiman, so credit goes to him, blame for any errors goes to me. Waiman's patch had some semantic differences for taking advantage of the lockless update in dget_parent(), while this patch is intentionally a pure search-and-replace change with no semantic changes. - Linus ] Signed-off-by: Waiman Long Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

Add new lockref infrastructure reference implementation

2013-08-29T01:13:27Z

This introduces a new "lockref" structure that supports the concept of lockless updates of reference counts that still honor an attached spinlock. NOTE! This reference implementation is not the optimized lockless version, rather it is the fallback implementation using standard spinlocks. The actual optimized versions will be merged into 3.12, but I wanted to get the infrastructure in place and document the new interfaces. [ Also note that this particular commit is drastically cut-down minimal version of the original patch by Waiman. In order to properly credit the original author I'm marking Waiman as the author here, but in the end this patch bears little resemblance to the patch by Waiman. So blame any errors on me editing things down to the point where I can introduce the infrastructure before the merge window for 3.12 actually opens. - Linus ] Signed-off-by: Waiman Long Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

genl: Hold reference on correct module while netlink-dump.

2013-08-28T21:19:17Z

netlink dump operations take module as parameter to hold reference for entire netlink dump duration. Currently it holds ref only on genl module which is not correct when we use ops registered to genl from another module. Following patch adds module pointer to genl_ops so that netlink can hold ref count on it. CC: Jesse Gross CC: Johannes Berg Signed-off-by: Pravin B Shelar Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

John W. Linville says: ==================== This is one more set of fixes intended for the 3.11 stream... For the mac80211 bits, Johannes says: "I have three more patches for the 3.11 stream: Felix's fix for the fairly visible brcmsmac crash, a fix from Simon for an IBSS join bug I found and a fix for a channel context bug in IBSS I'd introduced." Along with those... Sujith Manoharan makes a minor change to not use a PLL hang workaroun for AR9550. This one-liner fixes a couple of bugs reported in the Red Hat bugzilla. Helmut Schaa addresses an ath9k_htc bug that mangles frame headers during Tx. This fix is small, tested by the bug reported and isolated to ath9k_htc. Stanislaw Gruszka reverts a recent iwl4965 change that broke rfkill notification to user space. Please let me know if there are problems! ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

Rename nsproxy.pid_ns to nsproxy.pid_ns_for_children

nsproxy.pid_ns is *not* the task's pid namespace. The name should clarify that. This makes it more obvious that setns on a pid namespace is weird -- it won't change the pid namespace shown in procfs. Signed-off-by: Andy Lutomirski Reviewed-by: "Eric W. Biederman" Signed-off-by: David S. Miller
