2011-02-28davinci_emac: Add Carrier Link OK check in Davinci RX HandlerHegde, Vinay
This patch adds an additional check in the Davinci EMAC RX Handler, which tests the __LINK_STATE_NOCARRIER flag along with the __LINK_STATE_START flag as part EMAC shutting down procedure. This avoids WARNING: at drivers/net/davinci_emac.c:1040 emac_rx_handler+0xf8/0x120() during rtcwake used to suspend the target for a specified duration.

2011-02-28netlink: handle errors from netlink_dump()Andrey Vagin
netlink_dump() may failed, but nobody handle its error. It generates output data, when a previous portion has been returned to user space. This mechanism works when all data isn't go in skb. If we enter in netlink_recvmsg() and skb is absent in the recv queue, the netlink_dump() will not been executed. So if netlink_dump() is failed one time, the new data never appear and the reader will sleep forever. netlink_dump() is called from two places: 1. from netlink_sendmsg->...->netlink_dump_start(). In this place we can report error directly and it will be returned by sendmsg(). 2. from netlink_recvmsg There we can't report error directly, because we have a portion of valid output data and call netlink_dump() for prepare the next portion. If netlink_dump() is failed, the socket will be mark as error and the next recvmsg will be failed. Signed-off-by: Andrey Vagin <avagin@openvz.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2011-02-22bridge: Use IPv6 link-local address for multicast listener queriesLinus Lüssing
Currently the bridge multicast snooping feature periodically issues IPv6 general multicast listener queries to sense the absence of a listener. For this, it uses :: as its source address - however RFC 2710 requires: "To be valid, the Query message MUST come from a link-local IPv6 Source Address". Current Linux kernel versions seem to follow this requirement and ignore our bogus MLD queries. With this commit a link local address from the bridge interface is being used to issue the MLD query, resulting in other Linux devices which are multicast listeners in the network to respond with a MLD response (which was not the case before).

2011-02-22bridge: Fix MLD queries' ethernet source addressLinus Lüssing
Map the IPv6 header's destination multicast address to an ethernet source address instead of the MLD queries multicast address. For instance for a general MLD query (multicast address in the MLD query set to ::), this would wrongly be mapped to 33:33:00:00:00:00, although an MLD queries destination MAC should always be 33:33:00:00:00:01 which matches the IPv6 header's multicast destination ff02::1.

2011-02-22bridge: Allow mcast snooping for transient link local addresses tooLinus Lüssing
Currently the multicast bridge snooping support is not active for link local multicast. I assume this has been done to leave important multicast data untouched, like IPv6 Neighborhood Discovery. In larger, bridged, local networks it could however be desirable to optimize for instance local multicast audio/video streaming too. With the transient flag in IPv6 multicast addresses we have an easy way to optimize such multimedia traffic without tempering with the high priority multicast data from well-known addresses. This patch alters the multicast bridge snooping for IPv6, to take effect for transient multicast addresses instead of non-link-local addresses.

2011-02-22bridge: Fix IPv6 multicast snooping by correcting offset in MLDv2 reportLinus Lüssing
We actually want a pointer to the grec_nsrcr and not the following field. Otherwise we can get very high values for *nsrcs as the first two bytes of the IPv6 multicast address are being used instead, leading to a failing pskb_may_pull() which results in MLDv2 reports not being parsed.

2011-02-22bridge: Fix IPv6 multicast snooping by storing correct protocol typeLinus Lüssing
The protocol type for IPv6 entries in the hash table for multicast bridge snooping is falsely set to ETH_P_IP, marking it as an IPv4 address, instead of setting it to ETH_P_IPV6, which results in negative look-ups in the hash table later.

2011-02-20net: Fix more stale on-stack list_head objects.Eric W. Biederman
From: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@xmission.com> In the beginning with batching unreg_list was a list that was used only once in the lifetime of a network device (I think). Now we have calls using the unreg_list that can happen multiple times in the life of a network device like dev_deactivate and dev_close that are also using the unreg_list. In addition in unregister_netdevice_queue we also do a list_move because for devices like veth pairs it is possible that unregister_netdevice_queue will be called multiple times. So I think the change below to fix dev_deactivate which Eric D. missed will fix this problem. Now to go test that. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2011-02-20sctp: fix reporting of unknown parametersJiri Bohac
commit 5fa782c2f5ef6c2e4f04d3e228412c9b4a4c8809 re-worked the handling of unknown parameters. sctp_init_cause_fixed() can now return -ENOSPC if there is not enough tailroom in the error chunk skb. When this happens, the error header is not appended to the error chunk. In that case, the payload of the unknown parameter should not be appended either.

2011-02-20net: dcb: match dcb_app protocol field with 802.1Qaz specJohn Fastabend
The dcb_app protocol field is a __u32 however the 802.1Qaz specification defines it as a 16 bit field. This patch brings the structure inline with the spec making it a __u16.

2011-02-20tcp: fix inet_twsk_deschedule()Eric Dumazet
Eric W. Biederman reported a lockdep splat in inet_twsk_deschedule() This is caused by inet_twsk_purge(), run from process context, and commit 575f4cd5a5b6394577 (net: Use rcu lookups in inet_twsk_purge.) removed the BH disabling that was necessary. Add the BH disabling but fine grained, right before calling inet_twsk_deschedule(), instead of whole function. With help from Linus Torvalds and Eric W. Biederman Reported-by: Eric W.
