vlan: reset headers on accel emulation path
It's after all necessary to do reset headers here. The reason is we
cannot depend that it gets reseted in __netif_receive_skb once skb is
reinjected. For incoming vlanids without vlan_dev, vlan_do_receive()
returns false with skb != NULL and __netif_reveive_skb continues, skb is
not reinjected.

bonding:reset backup and inactive flag of slave
Eduard Sinelnikov ([email protected]) found that if we change
bonding mode from active backup to round robin, some slaves are still keeping
"backup", and won't transmit packets.
As Jay Vosburgh([email protected]) pointed out that we can work around that by
removing the bond_is_active_slave() check, because the "backup" flag is only
meaningful for active backup mode.
But if we just simply ignore the bond_is_active_slave() check,
the transmission will work fine, but we can't maintain the correct value of
"backup" flag for each slaves, though it is meaningless for other mode than
active backup.
I'd like to reset "backup" and "inactive" flag in bond_open,
thus we can keep the correct value of them.
As for bond_is_active_slave(), I'd like to prepare another patch to handle it.
V2:
Use C style comment.
Move read_lock(&bond->curr_slave_lock).
Replace restore with reset, for active backup mode, it means "restore",
but for other modes, it means "reset".
sit tunnels: propagate IPv6 transport class to IPv4 Type of Service
sit tunnels (IPv6 tunnel over IPv4) do not implement the "tos inherit"
case to copy the IPv6 transport class byte from the inner packet to
the IPv4 type of service byte in the outer packet. By contrast, ipip
tunnels and GRE tunnels do.
This patch, adapted from the similar code in net/ipv4/ipip.c and
net/ipv4/ip_gre.c, implements that.
This patch applies to 3.0.1, and has been tested on that version.

In this code, the failure_cleanup label calls the function
plx_pci_del_card, which frees everything in the card->net_dev array. dev
is placed in this array immediately after allocation, so the two subsequent
jumps to failure_cleanup should not also call free_sja1000dev, but the
second one does.
If plx_pci_check_sja1000 fails, then free_sja1000dev is also called on
dev. Because dev is already in the card->net_dev array, this implies that
when plx_pci_del_card is later called, it may get freed again. So that
entry is reset to NULL after the free.
Finally, if there is a problem with one channel, there will be a hole in the
array. card->channels counts the number of channels that have succeeded,
and does not keep track of the index of the largest element in the array
that is valid. So the loop in plx_pci_del_card is changed to go up to
PLX_PCI_MAX_CHAN, which is only 2.

vmxnet3: Don't enable vlan filters in promiscuous mode.
The vmxnet3 driver enables vlan filters if filtering is enabled for
any vlan. In promiscuous mode the filter table is cleared to in
order to disable filtering. However, if a vlan device is subsequently
created that vlan will be added to the filter, re-engaging it. As a
result, not only do we not see all the vlans in promiscuous mode, we
don't even see vlans for which a filter was previously created.
When the Manageability Engine (ME) is enabled on 82579, it periodically
accesses some MAC CSR registers. There is an arbiter in hardware which
prevents simultaneous access of these registers by the host software, i.e.
the driver. There is a hardware bug in the aribter that signals a host
access of the registers later than it actually happens. A write of the
Transmit or Receive Descriptor Tail register could result in an incorrect
value if the driver and ME perform simultaneous accesses which could result
in an access to an invalid memory address. This would return an
Unsupported Request which could hang the hardware. Workaround the issue by
checking the FWSM register bit24 which is set by ME before it accesses the
MAC CSR registers.

an interrupt request in-band message, it would trigger a false interrupt.
In most cases, the packet is just dropped.

the frame properly.

move RLIMIT_NPROC check from set_user() to do_execve_common()
The patch http://lkml.org/lkml/2003/7/13/226 introduced an RLIMIT_NPROC
check in set_user() to check for NPROC exceeding via setuid() and
similar functions.
Before the check there was a possibility to greatly exceed the allowed
number of processes by an unprivileged user if the program relied on
rlimit only. But the check created new security threat: many poorly
written programs simply don't check setuid() return code and believe it
cannot fail if executed with root privileges. So, the check is removed
in this patch because of too often privilege escalations related to
buggy programs.
The NPROC can still be enforced in the common code flow of daemons
spawning user processes. Most of daemons do fork()+setuid()+execve().
The check introduced in execve() (1) enforces the same limit as in
setuid() and (2) doesn't create similar security issues.
Neil Brown suggested to track what specific process has exceeded the
limit by setting PF_NPROC_EXCEEDED process flag. With the change only
this process would fail on execve(), and other processes' execve()
behaviour is not changed.
Solar Designer suggested to re-check whether NPROC limit is still
exceeded at the moment of execve(). If the process was sleeping for
days between set*uid() and execve(), and the NPROC counter step down
under the limit, the defered execve() failure because NPROC limit was
exceeded days ago would be unexpected. If the limit is not exceeded
anymore, we clear the flag on successful calls to execve() and fork().
The flag is also cleared on successful calls to set_user() as the limit
was exceeded for the previous user, not the current one.
Similar check was introduced in -ow patches (without the process flag).

ARM: mmp: Change the way we use timer 0 as clockevent timer.
Instead of setting up a match interrupt for 'current_time + delta'
on ->set_next_event(), program timer 0 to count down from 'delta - 1'
and trigger an interrupt when it reaches zero.
Currently, arch-mmp/time.c uses timer 0 both as a clocksource timer
and as a clockevent timer, the latter by setting up a comparator
interrupt to match on 'current_time + delta'. This is problematic
if delta is small enough, as that can lead to 'current_time + delta'
already being in the past when comparator setup has finished, leading
to the requested event not triggering.
As there is also a silicon issue that requires stopping a timer's
counter while writing to one of its match registers, we'll switch to
using two separate timers -- timer 0 as clockevent timer, which we'll
start and stop on every invocation of ->set_next_event(), and timer 1
as clocksource timer, which will be free-running.
This first patch enables timer 1 on boot, so that we can use it as
clocksource timer.

x86-64: Rework vsyscall emulation and add vsyscall= parameter
There are three choices:
vsyscall=native: Vsyscalls are native code that issues the
corresponding syscalls.
vsyscall=emulate (default): Vsyscalls are emulated by instruction
fault traps, tested in the bad_area path. The actual contents of
the vsyscall page is the same as the vsyscall=native case except
that it's marked NX. This way programs that make assumptions about
what the code in the page does will not be confused when they read
that code.
vsyscall=none: Trying to execute a vsyscall will segfault.

x86-64: Wire up getcpu syscall
getcpu is available as a vdso entry and an emulated vsyscall.
Programs that for some reason don't want to use the vdso should
still be able to call getcpu without relying on the slow emulated
vsyscall. It costs almost nothing to expose it as a real syscall.
We also need this for the following patch in vsyscall=native mode.
x86-64: Move vread_tsc and vread_hpet into the vDSO
user code no longer directly calls into code in arch/x86/kernel/, so
we don't need compile flag hacks to make it safe. All vdso code is
in the vdso directory now.
Given that xfs_bwrite actually does the shutdown already after
waiting for the b_iodone completion and given that we actually
found that calling xfs_force_shutdown from inside
xfs_buf_iodone_callbacks was a major contributor the problem
it better to drop this call.

omap: timer: Set dmtimer used as clocksource in autoreload mode
If CONFIG_OMAP_32K_TIMER is not selected and dmtimer is used as clocksource, the
timer stops counting once overflow occurs as it was not set in autoreload mode.
This results into timekeeping failure: for example, 'sleep 1' at the shell after
the timer counter overflow would hang.
This patch sets up autoreload when starting the clocksource timer which fixes
the above issue.
