prism2_open() as an .ndo_open handler should not return positive numbers
in case of failure, but it does return 1 in a couple of places.

WB225 based cards like CUS198 and CUS230 support

for this and also program the SWCOM register with the
correct "ant_ctrl_comm2g_switch_enable" value.

ax88179_tx_fixup() has quite complex code trying to push 8 bytes
of control data (len/mss), but fails to do it properly for TCP packets,
incurring an extra copy and point of memory allocation failure.
Lets use the simple and approved way.
dev->needed_headroom being 8, all frames should have 8 bytes of
headroom, so the extra copy should be unlikely anyway.

This change brings the suppressor attribute names into line; it also changes
the data types to provide a more consistent interface.
While -1 indicates that the suppressor is not enabled, values >= 0 for
suppress_prefixlen or suppress_ifgroup reject routing decisions violating the
constraint.
This changes the previously presented behaviour of suppress_prefixlen, where a
prefix length _less_ than the attribute value was rejected. After this change,
a prefix length less than *or* equal to the value is considered a violation of
the rule constraint.
It also changes the default values for default and newly added rules (disabling
any suppression for those).

This doesn't show up unless you do quite a bit of testing; a simple

The reason for this is that install_special_mapping() expects the

NetLabel has the ability to selectively assign network security labels
to outbound traffic based on either the LSM's "domain" (different for
each LSM), the network destination, or a combination of both. Depending
on the type of traffic, local or forwarded, and the type of traffic
selector, domain or address based, different hooks are used to label the
traffic; the goal being minimal overhead.
Unfortunately, there is a bug such that a system using NetLabel domain
based traffic selectors does not correctly label outbound local traffic
that is not assigned to a socket. The issue is that in these cases
the associated NetLabel hook only looks at the address based selectors
and not the domain based selectors. This patch corrects this by
checking both the domain and address based selectors so that the correct
labeling is applied, regardless of the configuration type.
In order to acomplish this fix, this patch also simplifies some of the
NetLabel domainhash structures to use a more common outbound traffic
mapping type: struct netlbl_dommap_def. This simplifies some of the code
in this patch and paves the way for further simplifications in the
future.

Veaceslav Falico says:
====================
Recent patches revealed an old bug, which was there for quite awhile. It's
related to vlan on top of bonding and ndo_neigh_setup(). When vlan device
is initiated, it calls its real_dev->ndo_neigh_setup(), and in case of
bonding - it will modify neigh_parms->neigh_setup to point to
bond_neigh_init, while neigh_parms are of vlan's dev.
This way, when neigh_parms->neigh_setup() of vlan's dev is called, the
bonding function will be called, which expects the dev to be struct
bonding, but will receive a vlan dev.
It was hidden before because of bond->first_slave usage. Now, with
Nikolay's conversion to list/RCU, first_slave is gone and we hit a null
pointer dereference when working with lists/slave.
First patch moves ndo_neigh_setup() in neigh_parms_alloc() to the bottom,
so that the ->dev will be available to the caller. It doesn't really change
anything, however is needed for the second patch.
Second patch makes bond_neigh_setup() (bond->ndo_neigh_setup()) check if
the neigh_parms are really from a bonding dev, and only modify the
neigh_setup in this case.

It's possible to assign an invalid value to the net.core.somaxconn
sysctl variable, because there is no checks at all.
The sk_max_ack_backlog field of the sock structure is defined as
unsigned short. Therefore, the backlog argument in inet_listen()
shouldn't exceed USHRT_MAX. The backlog argument in the listen() syscall
is truncated to the somaxconn value. So, the somaxconn value shouldn't
exceed 65535 (USHRT_MAX).
Also, negative values of somaxconn are meaningless.
before:
$ sysctl -w net.core.somaxconn=256
net.core.somaxconn = 256
$ sysctl -w net.core.somaxconn=65536
net.core.somaxconn = 65536
$ sysctl -w net.core.somaxconn=-100
net.core.somaxconn = -100

$ sysctl -w net.core.somaxconn=256
net.core.somaxconn = 256
$ sysctl -w net.core.somaxconn=65536
