IPv6: fix CoA check in RH2 input handler (mip6_rthdr_input())
The input handler for Type 2 Routing Header (mip6_rthdr_input())
checks if the CoA in the packet matches the CoA in the XFRM state.
Current check is buggy: it compares the adddress in the Type 2
Routing Header, i.e. the HoA, against the expected CoA in the state.
The comparison should be made against the address in the destination
field of the IPv6 header.
The bug remained unnoticed because the main (and possibly only current)
user of the code (UMIP MIPv6 Daemon) initializes the XFRM state with the
unspecified address, i.e. explicitly allows everything.
Yoshifuji-san, can you ack that one?

ibmveth: lost IRQ while closing/opening device leads to service loss
The order of freeing the IRQ and freeing the device in firmware
in ibmveth_close can cause the adapter to become unusable after a
subsequent ibmveth_open. Only a reboot of the OS will make the
network device usable again. This is seen when cycling the adapter
up and down while there is network activity.
There is a window where an IRQ will be left unserviced (H_EOI will not
be called). The solution is to make a VIO_IRQ_DISABLE h_call, free the
device with firmware, and then call free_irq.

net: fix problem in reading sock TX queue
Fix problem in reading the tx_queue recorded in a socket. In
dev_pick_tx, the TX queue is read by doing a check with
sk_tx_queue_recorded on the socket, followed by a sk_tx_queue_get.
The problem is that there is not mutual exclusion across these
calls in the socket so it it is possible that the queue in the
sock can be invalidated after sk_tx_queue_recorded is called so
that sk_tx_queue get returns -1, which sets 65535 in queue_index
and thus dev_pick_tx returns 65536 which is a bogus queue and
can cause crash in dev_queue_xmit.
We fix this by only calling sk_tx_queue_get which does the proper
checks. The interface is that sk_tx_queue_get returns the TX queue
if the sock argument is non-NULL and TX queue is recorded, else it
returns -1. sk_tx_queue_recorded is no longer used so it can be
completely removed.

bonding: check if clients MAC addr has changed
When two systems using bonding devices in adaptive load
balancing (ALB) communicates with each other, an endless
ping-pong of ARP replies starts between these two systems.
What happens? In the ALB mode, bonding driver keeps track
of each client connected in a hash table, so it can do the
receive load balancing (RLB). This hash table is updated
when an ARP reply is received, then it scans for the client
entry, updates its MAC address and flag it to be announced
later. Therefore, two seconds later, the alb monitor runs
and send for each updated client entry two ARP replies
updating this specific client. The same process happens on
the receiving system, causing the endless ping-pong of arp
replies.
See more information including the relevant functions below:
Besides the unneeded networking traffic, this loop breaks
a cluster because a backup system can't take over the IP
address. There is always one system sending an ARP reply
poisoning the network.
This patch fixes the problem adding a check for the MAC
address before updating it. Thus, if the MAC address didn't
change, there is no need to update neither to announce it later.

iwlwifi: set TX_CMD_FLAG_PROT_REQUIRE_MSK in tx_flag
When building tx command, always set TX_CMD_FLAG_PROT_REQUIRE_MSK
for 5000 series and up.
Without setting this bit the firmware will not examine the RTS/CTS setting
and thus not send traffic with the appropriate protection. RTS/CTS is is
required for HT traffic in a noisy environment where, without this setting,
connections will stall on some hardware as documented in the patch that
initially attempted to address this:
iwlwifi: Fix throughput stall issue in HT mode for 5000
Similar to 6000 and 1000 series, RTS/CTS is the recommended
protection mechanism for 5000 series in HT mode based on the HW design.
Using RTS/CTS will better protect the inner exchange from interference,
especially in highly-congested environment, it also prevent uCode encounter
TX FIFO underrun and other HT mode related performance issues.
For 3945 and 4965, different flags are used for RTS/CTS or CTS-to-Self
protection.

broke multicast. The reason, it turns out, is that
the code previously checked if ALLMULTI _changed_,
which the new code no longer did, and normally it
_never_ changes. Had somebody changed it manually,
the code prior to my patch there would have been
broken already.
The reason is that we always, unconditionally, ask
the device to pass up all multicast frames, but the
new code made it depend on ALLMULTI which broke it
since now we'd pass up multicast frames depending
on the default filter in the device, which isn't
necessarily what we want (since we don't program it
right now).
Fix this by simply not checking allmulti as we have
allmulti behaviour enabled already anyway.

xfrm: check bundle policy existance before dereferencing it
Fix the bundle validation code to not assume having a valid policy.
When we have multiple transformations for a xfrm policy, the bundle

There are few places where ANI is started without checking
if it is right to start. This might lead to a case where ani
timer would be left undeleted and cause improper memory acccess
during module unload. This bug is clearly exposed with
paprd support where the driver detects tx hang and does a
chip reset. During this reset ani is (re)started without checking
if it needs to be started. This would leave a timer scheduled
even after all the resources are freed and cause a panic.
This patch introduces a bit in sc_flags to indicate if ani
needs to be started in sw_scan_start() and ath_reset().
This would fix the following panic. This issue is easily seen
with ar9003 + paprd.

bnx2: fix dma_get_ops compilation breakage
This removes dma_get_ops() prefetch optimization in bnx2.
bnx2 uses dma_get_ops() to see if dma_sync_single_for_cpu() is
noop. bnx2 does prefetch if it's noop.
But dma_get_ops() isn't available on all the architectures (only the
architectures that uses dma_map_ops struct have it). Using
dma_get_ops() in drivers leads to compilation breakage on many
architectures.
This patch removes dma_get_ops() and changes bnx2 to do prefetch on
all the architectures. This adds useless prefetch on non-coherent
architectures but this is harmless. It is also unlikely to cause the
performance drop.

Dumped buffer descriptors showed that eTSEC's length/truncation
logic sometimes passes oversized packets, i.e. for the above ICMP
packet the following two buffer descriptors may become ready:
status=1400 length=1536
status=1800 length=1541
So, it seems that gianfar actually receives the whole big frame,
and it tries to place the packet into two BDs. This situation
confuses the driver, and so the skb_put() sanity check fails.
This patch fixes the issue by adding an appropriate check, i.e.
the driver should not try to process frames with buffer
descriptor's length over rx_buffer_size (i.e. maxfrm and mrblr).
Note that sometimes eTSEC works correctly, i.e. in the second
(last) buffer descriptor bits 'truncated' and 'crcerr' are set,
and so there's no oops. Though I couldn't find any logic when
it works correctly and when not.

Clear IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE for teql interfaces
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.

gianfar: Fix setup of RX time stamping
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.
