2c12a74cc4 [IPV6]: anycast refcnt fix
This patch fixes a bug in Linux IPv6 stack which caused anycast address
to be added to a device prior DAD has been completed. This led to
incorrect reference count which resulted in infinite wait for
unregister_netdevice completion on interface removal.

0b4d414714 [PATCH] sysctl: remove insert_at_head from register_sysctl
The semantic effect of insert_at_head is that it would allow new registered
sysctl entries to override existing sysctl entries of the same name.  Which is
pain for caching and the proc interface never implemented.

I have done an audit and discovered that none of the current users of
register_sysctl care as (excpet for directories) they do not register
duplicate sysctl entries.

So this patch simply removes the support for overriding existing entries in
the sys_sysctl interface since no one uses it or cares and it makes future
enhancments harder.

cd354f1ae7 [PATCH] remove many unneeded #includes of sched.h
After Al Viro (finally) succeeded in removing the sched.h #include in module.h
recently, it makes sense again to remove other superfluous sched.h includes.
There are quite a lot of files which include it but don't actually need
anything defined in there.  Presumably these includes were once needed for
macros that used to live in sched.h, but moved to other header files in the
course of cleaning it up.

To ease the pain, this time I did not fiddle with any header files and only
removed #includes from .c-files, which tend to cause less trouble.

Compile tested against 2.6.20-rc2 and 2.6.20-rc2-mm2 (with offsets) on alpha,
arm, i386, ia64, mips, powerpc, and x86_64 with allnoconfig, defconfig,
allmodconfig, and allyesconfig as well as a few randconfigs on x86_64 and all
configs in arch/arm/configs on arm.  I also checked that no new warnings were
introduced by the patch (actually, some warnings are removed that were emitted
by unnecessarily included header files).

26932566a4 [NETLINK]: Don't BUG on undersized allocations
Currently netlink users BUG when the allocated skb for an event
notification is undersized. While this is certainly a kernel bug,
its not critical and crashing the kernel is too drastic, especially
when considering that these errors have appeared multiple times in
the past and it BUGs even if no listeners are present.

This patch replaces BUG by WARN_ON and changes the notification
functions to inform potential listeners of undersized allocations
using a unique error code (EMSGSIZE).

57f5f544f5 [IPV6]: ipv6_add_addr should install dstentry earlier
ipv6_add_addr allocates a struct inet6_ifaddr and a dstentry, but it
doesn't install the dstentry in ifa->rt until after it releases the
addrconf_hash_lock. This means other CPUs will be able to see the new
address while it hasn't been initialized completely yet.

One possible fix would be to grab the ifp->lock spinlock when
creating the address struct; a simpler fix is to just move the
assignment.

8a6ce0c083 [IPV6]: Use ipv6_addr_src_scope for link address sorting.
In the source address selection, the address must be sorted
from global to node-local.

But, ifp->scope is different from the scope for source address
selection.

                                 2001::1  fe80::1     ::1
ifp->scope                             0     0x02    0x01
ipv6_addr_src_scope(&ifp->addr)     0x0e     0x02    0x01

So, we need to use ipv6_addr_src_scope(&ifp->addr) for sorting.

And, for backward compatibility, addresses should be sorted from
new one to old one.

e041c68341 [PATCH] Notifier chain update: API changes
The kernel's implementation of notifier chains is unsafe.  There is no
protection against entries being added to or removed from a chain while the
chain is in use.  The issues were discussed in this thread:

    http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=113018709002036&w=2

We noticed that notifier chains in the kernel fall into two basic usage
classes:

	"Blocking" chains are always called from a process context
	and the callout routines are allowed to sleep;

	"Atomic" chains can be called from an atomic context and
	the callout routines are not allowed to sleep.

We decided to codify this distinction and make it part of the API.  Therefore
this set of patches introduces three new, parallel APIs: one for blocking
notifiers, one for atomic notifiers, and one for "raw" notifiers (which is
really just the old API under a new name).  New kinds of data structures are
used for the heads of the chains, and new routines are defined for
registration, unregistration, and calling a chain.  The three APIs are
explained in include/linux/notifier.h and their implementation is in
kernel/sys.c.

With atomic and blocking chains, the implementation guarantees that the chain
links will not be corrupted and that chain callers will not get messed up by
entries being added or removed.  For raw chains the implementation provides no
guarantees at all; users of this API must provide their own protections.  (The
idea was that situations may come up where the assumptions of the atomic and
blocking APIs are not appropriate, so it should be possible for users to
handle these things in their own way.)

There are some limitations, which should not be too hard to live with.  For
atomic/blocking chains, registration and unregistration must always be done in
a process context since the chain is protected by a mutex/rwsem.  Also, a
callout routine for a non-raw chain must not try to register or unregister
entries on its own chain.  (This did happen in a couple of places and the code
had to be changed to avoid it.)

Since atomic chains may be called from within an NMI handler, they cannot use
spinlocks for synchronization.  Instead we use RCU.  The overhead falls almost
entirely in the unregister routine, which is okay since unregistration is much
less frequent that calling a chain.

Here is the list of chains that we adjusted and their classifications.  None
of them use the raw API, so for the moment it is only a placeholder.

  ATOMIC CHAINS
  -------------
arch/i386/kernel/traps.c:		i386die_chain
arch/ia64/kernel/traps.c:		ia64die_chain
arch/powerpc/kernel/traps.c:		powerpc_die_chain

kernel/panic.c:				panic_notifier_list
kernel/profile.c:			task_free_notifier
net/bluetooth/hci_core.c:		hci_notifier
net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_conntrack_core.c:	ip_conntrack_chain
net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_conntrack_core.c:	ip_conntrack_expect_chain
net/ipv6/addrconf.c:			inet6addr_chain
net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_core.c:	nf_conntrack_chain
net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_core.c:	nf_conntrack_expect_chain
net/netlink/af_netlink.c:		netlink_chain

  BLOCKING CHAINS
  ---------------
arch/powerpc/platforms/pseries/reconfig.c:	pSeries_reconfig_chain
arch/s390/kernel/process.c:		idle_chain
arch/x86_64/kernel/process.c		idle_notifier
drivers/base/memory.c:			memory_chain
drivers/cpufreq/cpufreq.c		cpufreq_policy_notifier_list
drivers/cpufreq/cpufreq.c		cpufreq_transition_notifier_list
drivers/macintosh/adb.c:		adb_client_list
drivers/macintosh/via-pmu.c		sleep_notifier_list
drivers/macintosh/via-pmu68k.c		sleep_notifier_list
drivers/macintosh/windfarm_core.c	wf_client_list
drivers/usb/core/notify.c		usb_notifier_list
drivers/video/fbmem.c			fb_notifier_list
kernel/cpu.c				cpu_chain
kernel/module.c				module_notify_list
kernel/profile.c			munmap_notifier
kernel/profile.c			task_exit_notifier
kernel/sys.c				reboot_notifier_list
net/core/dev.c				netdev_chain
net/decnet/dn_dev.c:			dnaddr_chain
net/ipv4/devinet.c:			inetaddr_chain

It's possible that some of these classifications are wrong.  If they are,
please let us know or submit a patch to fix them.  Note that any chain that
gets called very frequently should be atomic, because the rwsem read-locking
used for blocking chains is very likely to incur cache misses on SMP systems.
(However, if the chain's callout routines may sleep then the chain cannot be
atomic.)

The patch set was written by Alan Stern and Chandra Seetharaman, incorporating
material written by Keith Owens and suggestions from Paul McKenney and Andrew
Morton.

If you set network interface down and up again, the IPv6 address
autoconfiguration does not work. 'ip addr' shows that the link-local
address is in tentative state. We don't even react to periodical router
advertisements.

During NETDEV_DOWN we clear IF_READY, and we don't set it back in
NETDEV_UP. While starting to perform DAD on the link-local address, we
notice that the device is not in IF_READY, and we abort autoconfiguration
process (which would eventually send router solicitations).

4641e7a334 [IPV6]: Don't hold extra ref count in ipv6_ifa_notify
Currently the logic in ipv6_ifa_notify is to hold an extra reference
count for addrconf dst's that get added to the routing table.  Thus,
when addrconf dst entries are taken out of the routing table, we need
to drop that dst.  However, addrconf dst entries may be removed from
the routing table by means other than __ipv6_ifa_notify.

So we're faced with the choice of either fixing up all places where
addrconf dst entries are removed, or dropping the extra reference count
altogether.

I chose the latter because the ifp itself always holds a dst reference
count of 1 while it's alive.  This is dropped just before we kfree the
ifp object.  Therefore we know that in __ipv6_ifa_notify we will always
hold that count.

This bug was found by Eric W. Biederman.

1d1428045c [IPV6]: Fix address deletion
If you add more than one IPv6 address belonging to the same prefix and 
delete the address that was last added, routing table entry for that 
prefix is also deleted.
Tested on 2.6.14.4

To reproduce:
ip addr add 3ffe::1/64 dev eth0
ip addr add 3ffe::2/64 dev eth0
/* wait DAD */
sleep 1
ip addr del 3ffe::2/64 dev eth0
ip -6 route

(route to 3ffe::/64 should be gone)

In ipv6_del_addr(), if ifa == ifp, we set ifa->if_next to NULL, and later 
assign ifap = &ifa->if_next, effectively terminating the for-loop.
This prevents us from checking if there are other addresses using the same 
prefix that are valid, and thus resulting in deletion of the prefix.
This applies only if the first entry in idev->addr_list is the address to 
be deleted.

12da2a435c [IPV6]: small fix for ipv6_dev_get_saddr(...)
The "score.rule++" doesn't make any sense for me. 
According to codes above, I think it should be "hiscore.rule++;" .

e5ed639913 [IPV4]: Replace __in_dev_get with __in_dev_get_rcu/rtnl
The following patch renames __in_dev_get() to __in_dev_get_rtnl() and
introduces __in_dev_get_rcu() to cover the second case.

1) RCU with refcnt should use in_dev_get().
2) RCU without refcnt should use __in_dev_get_rcu().
3) All others must hold RTNL and use __in_dev_get_rtnl().

There is one exception in net/ipv4/route.c which is in fact a pre-existing
race condition.  I've marked it as such so that we remember to fix it.

This patch is based on suggestions and prior work by Suzanne Wood and
Paul McKenney.

Well caught.  We never set rt6i_idev on ip6_null_entry.
This patch should make the problem go away.

573dbd9596 [CRYPTO]: crypto_free_tfm() callers no longer need to check for NULL
Since the patch to add a NULL short-circuit to crypto_free_tfm() went in,
there's no longer any need for callers of that function to check for NULL.
This patch removes the redundant NULL checks and also a few similar checks
for NULL before calls to kfree() that I ran into while doing the
crypto_free_tfm bits.

I've succesfuly compile tested this patch, and a kernel with the patch 
applied boots and runs just fine.

When I posted the patch to LKML (and other lists/people on Cc) it drew the
following comments :

 J. Bruce Fields commented
  "I've no problem with the auth_gss or nfsv4 bits.--b."

 Sridhar Samudrala said
  "sctp change looks fine."

 Herbert Xu signed off on the patch.

So, I guess this is ready to be dropped into -mm and eventually mainline.
