bebc55aeff tipc: Fix sk_buff leaks when link congestion is detected
Modifies a TIPC send routine that did not discard the outgoing sk_buff
if it was not transmitted because of link congestion; this eliminates
the potential for buffer leakage in the many callers who did not clean up
the unsent buffer. (The two routines that previously did discard the unsent
buffer have been updated to eliminate their now-redundant clean up.)

7f47f5c751 tipc: Update destination node field on incoming multicast messages
Sets the destination node field of an incoming multicast message
to the receiving node's network address before handing off the message
to each receiving port. This ensures that, in the event the destination
port returns the message to the sender, the sender can identify which
node the destination port belonged to.

7462b9e9f6 tipc: Fix problem with bundled multicast message
Set the destination node and destination port fields of an outgoing
multicast message header to zero; this is necessary to ensure that
the receiving node can route the message properly if it was packed
into a bundle due to link congestion. (Previously, there was a chance
that the receiving node would send the unbundled message to a random
node & port, rather than processing the message itself.)

53b94364a7 tipc: Set name lookup scope field properly in all data messages
Ensures that all outgoing data messages have the "name lookup scope"
field of their header set correctly; that is, named multicast messages
now specify cluster-wide name lookup, while messages not using TIPC
naming zero out the lookup field.  (Previously, the lookup scope specified
for these types of messages was inherited from the last message sent
by the sending port.)

7756155744 tipc: Fix issues with fragmentation of an existing message buffer
Modifies the routine that fragments an existing message buffer to
use similar logic to that used when generating fragments from an iovec.
The routine now creates a complete chain of fragments and adds them to
the link transmit queue as a unit, so that the link sends all fragments
or none; this prevents the incomplete transmission of a fragmented
message that might otherwise result because of link congestion or
memory exhaustion. This change also ensures that the counter recording
the number of fragmented messages sent by the link is now incremented
only if the message is actually sent.

306fe9384f mac80211: don't drop frames where skb->len < 24 in ieee80211_scan_rx()
This seems to be a leftover from the old days, when we didn't support
any frames that didn't contain the full ieee802.11 header.  This is
not the case anymore.  It does not cause problems now, because they
are only dropped during scan.  But when scheduled scans get merged,
this would become a problem because we would drop all small frames
while scheduled scan is running.

To fix this, return RX_CONTINUE instead of RX_DROP_MONITOR.

7a4f0761fc IPVS: init and cleanup restructuring
DESCRIPTION
This patch tries to restore the initial init and cleanup
sequences that was before namspace patch.
Netns also requires action when net devices unregister
which has never been implemented. I.e this patch also
covers when a device moves into a network namespace,
and has to be released.

IMPLEMENTATION
The number of calls to register_pernet_device have been
reduced to one for the ip_vs.ko
Schedulers still have their own calls.

This patch adds a function __ip_vs_service_cleanup()
and an enable flag for the netfilter hooks.

The nf hooks will be enabled when the first service is loaded
and never disabled again, except when a namespace exit starts.

1ae132b034 IPVS: Change of socket usage to enable name space exit.
If the sync daemons run in a name space while it crashes
or get killed, there is no way to stop them except for a reboot.
When all patches are there, ip_vs_core will handle register_pernet_(),
i.e. ip_vs_sync_init() and ip_vs_sync_cleanup() will be removed.

Kernel threads should not increment the use count of a socket.
By calling sk_change_net() after creating a socket this is avoided.
sock_release cant be used intead sk_release_kernel() should be used.

103a9778e0 netfilter: ebtables: only call xt_compat_add_offset once per rule
The optimizations in commit 255d0dc340
(netfilter: x_table: speedup compat operations) assume that
xt_compat_add_offset is called once per rule.

ebtables however called it for each match/target found in a rule.

The match/watcher/target parser already returns the needed delta, so it
is sufficient to move the xt_compat_add_offset call to a more reasonable
location.

While at it, also get rid of the unused COMPAT iterator macros.

4940fc889e net: add mac_pton() for parsing MAC address
mac_pton() parses MAC address in form XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX and only in that form.

mac_pton() doesn't care about characters _after_ last octet,
it's up to caller to deal with it.

mac_pton() diverges from 0/-E return value convention.
Target usage:

	if (!mac_pton(str, whatever->mac))
		return -EINVAL;
	/* ->mac being u8 [ETH_ALEN] is filled at this point. */
	/* optionally check str[3 * ETH_ALEN - 1] for termination */

48752e1b18 vlan: remove one synchronize_net() call

Since veth are a pair of devices, it makes sense to use a batch of two

b9f47a3aae tcp_cubic: limit delayed_ack ratio to prevent divide error
TCP Cubic keeps a metric that estimates the amount of delayed
acknowledgements to use in adjusting the window. If an abnormally
large number of packets are acknowledged at once, then the update
could wrap and reach zero. This kind of ACK could only
happen when there was a large window and huge number of
ACK's were lost.

This patch limits the value of delayed ack ratio. The choice of 32
is just a conservative value since normally it should be range of
1 to 4 packets.

6e86913810 ipv4: Use cork flow in inet_sk_{reselect_saddr,rebuild_header}()
These two functions must be invoked only when the socket is locked
(because socket identity modifications are made non-atomically).

Therefore we can use the cork flow for output route lookups.

3038eeac02 ipv4: Lock socket and use cork flow in ip4_datagram_connect().
This is to make sure that an l2tp socket's inet cork flow is
fully filled in, when it's encapsulated in UDP.

fdbb0f076b l2tp: Use cork flow in l2tp_ip_connect() and l2tp_ip_sendmsg()
Now that the socket is consistently locked in these two routines,
this transformation is legal.

6af88da14e l2tp: Fix locking in l2tp_core.c
l2tp_xmit_skb() must take the socket lock.  It makes use of ip_queue_xmit()
which expects to execute in a socket atomic context.

Since we execute this function in software interrupts, we cannot use the
usual lock_sock()/release_sock() sequence, instead we have to use
bh_lock_sock() and see if a user has the socket locked, and if so drop
the packet.

2f16270f41 l2tp: Fix locking in l2tp_ip.c
Both l2tp_ip_connect() and l2tp_ip_sendmsg() must take the socket
lock.  They both modify socket state non-atomically, and in particular
l2tp_ip_sendmsg() increments socket private counters without using
atomic operations.

da905bd1d5 tcp: Use cork flow in tcp_v4_connect()
Since this is invoked from inet_stream_connect() the socket is locked
and therefore this usage is safe.
