2010-09-21ip: fix truesize mismatch in ip fragmentationEric Dumazet
Special care should be taken when slow path is hit in ip_fragment() : When walking through frags, we transfert truesize ownership from skb to frags. Then if we hit a slow_path condition, we must undo this or risk uncharging frags->truesize twice, and in the end, having negative socket sk_wmem_alloc counter, or even freeing socket sooner than expected. Many thanks to Nick Bowler, who provided a very clean bug report and test program. Thanks to Jarek for reviewing my first patch and providing a V2 While Nick bisection pointed to commit 2b85a34e911 (net: No more expensive sock_hold()/sock_put() on each tx), underlying bug is older (2.6.12-rc5) A side effect is to extend work done in commit b2722b1c3a893e (ip_fragment: also adjust skb->truesize for packets not owned by a socket) to ipv6 as well.

2010-09-21dccp ccid-3: Remove redundant 'options_received' structGerrit Renker
The `options_received' struct is redundant, since it re-duplicates the existing `p' and `x_recv' fields. This patch removes the sub-struct and migrates the format conversion operations to ccid3_hc_tx_parse_options(). Signed-off-by: Gerrit Renker <gerrit@erg.abdn.ac.uk>
2010-09-21dccp tfrc/ccid-3: computing the loss rate from the Loss Event RateGerrit Renker
This adds a function to take care of the following, separate cases occurring in the computation of the Loss Rate p: * 1/(2^32-1) is mapped into 0% as per RFC 4342, 8.5; * 1/0 is mapped into 100%, the maximum; * to avoid that p = 1/x is rounded down to 0 when x is very large, since this means accidentally re-entering slow-start indicated by p == 0, the minimum resolution value of p is now returned instead; * a bug in ccid3_hc_rx_getsockopt is fixed: 1/0 was mapped into ~0U.

2010-09-21dccp ccid-3: remove dead statesGerrit Renker
This patch is thanks to an investigation by Leandro Sales de Melo and his colleagues. They worked out two state diagrams which highlight the fact that the xxx_TERM states in CCID-3/4 are in fact not necessary. And this can be confirmed by in turn looking at the code: the xxx_TERM states are only ever set in ccid3_hc_{rx,tx}_exit(): when CCID-3 sets the state to xxx_TERM, it is at a time where no more processing should be going on, hence it is not necessary to introduce a dedicated exit state - this is already implied by unloading the CCID.

2010-09-21dccp: Replace magic CCID-specific numbers by symbolic constantsGerrit Renker
The constants DCCPO_{MIN,MAX}_CCID_SPECIFIC are nowhere used in the code, but instead for the CCID-specific options numbers are used. This patch unifies the use of CCID-specific option numbers, by adding symbolic names reflecting the definitions in RFC 4340, 10.3. Signed-off-by: Gerrit Renker <gerrit@erg.abdn.ac.uk>
2010-09-21dccp: Add packet type information to CCID-specific option parsingGerrit Renker
This 1. adds packet type information to ccid_hc_{rx,tx}_parse_options(). This is necessary, since table 3 in RFC 4340, 5.8 leaves it to the CCIDs to state which options may (not) appear on what packet type. 2. adds such a check for CCID-3's {Loss Event, Receive} Rate as specified in RFC 4340 8.3 ("Receive Rate options MUST NOT be sent on DCCP-Data packets") and 8.5 ("Loss Event Rate options MUST NOT be sent on DCCP-Data packets"). 3. removes an unused argument `idx' from ccid_hc_{rx,tx}_parse_options(). This is also no longer necessary, since the CCID-specific option-parsing routines are passed every single parameter of the type-length-value option encoding.

2010-09-20xfrm: Allow different selector family in temporary stateThomas Egerer
The family parameter xfrm_state_find is used to find a state matching a certain policy. This value is set to the template's family (encap_family) right before xfrm_state_find is called. The family parameter is however also used to construct a temporary state in xfrm_state_find itself which is wrong for inter-family scenarios because it produces a selector for the wrong family. Since this selector is included in the xfrm_user_acquire structure, user space programs misinterpret IPv6 addresses as IPv4 and vice versa. This patch splits up the original init_tempsel function into a part that initializes the selector respectively the props and id of the temporary state, to allow for differing ip address families whithin the state.

2010-09-20wext: fix potential private ioctl memory content leakJohannes Berg
When a driver doesn't fill the entire buffer, old heap contents may remain, and if it also doesn't update the length properly, this old heap content will be copied back to userspace. It is very unlikely that this happens in any of the drivers using private ioctls since it would show up as junk being reported by iwpriv, but it seems better to be safe here, so use kzalloc.

2010-09-16mac80211: send last 3/5 probe requests as unicastLuis R. Rodriguez
Some buggy APs do not respond to unicast probe requests or send unicast probe requests very delayed so in the worst case we should try to send broadcast probe requests, otherwise we can get disconnected from these APs. Even if drivers do not have filters to disregard probe responses from foreign APs mac80211 will only process probe responses from our associated AP for re-arming connection monitoring. We need to do this since the beacon monitor does not push back the connection monitor by design so even if we are getting beacons from these type of APs our connection monitor currently relies heavily on the way the probe requests are received on the AP. An example of an AP affected by this is the Nexus One, but this has also been observed with random APs. We can probably optimize this later by using null funcs instead of probe requests.

This should be instead postponed until we come back to our home channel, otherwise by the time we get back to the home channel we could be triggering unecesary probe requests.

The cellular modem supports only a few existing pipes at a time. So we really should not leak them.
