When a net namespace is destroyed, some devices (those, not killed
on ns stop explicitly) are moved back to init_net.
The problem, is that this net_ns change has one point of failure -
the __dev_alloc_name() may be called if a name collision occurs (and
this is easy to trigger). This allocator performs a likely-to-fail
GFP_ATOMIC allocation to find a suitable number. Other possible
conditions that may cause error (for device being ns local or not
registered) are always false in this case.
So, when this call fails, the device is unregistered. But this is
*not* the right thing to do, since after this the device may be
released (and kfree-ed) improperly. E. g. bridges require more
actions (sysfs update, timer disarming, etc.), some other devices
want to remove their private areas from lists, etc.
I. e. arbitrary use-after-free cases may occur.
The proposed fix is the following: since the only reason for the
dev_change_net_namespace to fail is the name generation, we may
give it a unique fall-back name w/o %d-s in it - the dev<ifindex>
one, since ifindexes are still unique.
So make this change, raise the failure-case printk loglevel to
EMERG and replace the unregister_netdevice call with BUG().

Note: there's actually another bug in FRTO's SACK variant, which
is the causing failure in NewReno case because of the error
that's fixed here. I'll fix the SACK case separately (it's
a separate bug really, though related, but in order to fix that
I need to audit tp->snd_nxt usage a bit).
There were two places where SACK variant of FRTO is getting
incorrectly used even if SACK wasn't negotiated by the TCP flow.
This leads to incorrect setting of frto_highmark with NewReno
if a previous recovery was interrupted by another RTO.
An eventual fallback to conventional recovery then incorrectly
considers one or couple of segments as forward transmissions
though they weren't, which then are not LOST marked during
fallback making them "non-retransmittable" until the next RTO.
In a bad case, those segments are really lost and are the only
one left in the window. Thus TCP needs another RTO to continue.
The next FRTO, however, could again repeat the same events
making the progress of the TCP flow extremely slow.
In order for these events to occur at all, FRTO must occur
again in FRTOs step 3 while the key segments must be lost as
well, which is not too likely in practice. It seems to most
frequently with some small devices such as network printers
that *seem* to accept TCP segments only in-order. In cases
were key segments weren't lost, things get automatically
resolved because those wrongly marked segments don't need to be
retransmitted in order to continue.
I found a reproducer after digging up relevant reports (few
reports in total, none at netdev or lkml I know of), some
cases seemed to indicate middlebox issues which seems now
to be a false assumption some people had made. Bugzilla
#10063 _might_ be related. Damon L. Chesser <damon@damtek.com>

for me. With the tcpdump log it was quite trivial to figure

When a netdev is moved across namespaces with the
'dev_change_net_namespace' function, the 'device_rename' function is
used to fixup kobject and refresh the sysfs tree. The device_rename
function will call kobject_rename and this one will check if there is
an object with the same name and this is the case because we are
renaming the object with the same name.
The use of 'device_rename' seems for me wrong because we usually don't
rename it but just move it across namespaces. As we just want to do a
mini "netdev_[un]register", IMO the functions
'netdev_[un]register_kobject' should be used instead, like an usual
network device [un]registering.
This patch replace device_rename by netdev_unregister_kobject,
followed by netdev_register_kobject.
The netdev_register_kobject will call device_initialize and will raise
a warning indicating the device was already initialized. In order to
fix that, I split the device initialization into a separate function
and use it together with 'netdev_register_kobject' into
register_netdevice. So we can safely call 'netdev_register_kobject' in
'dev_change_net_namespace'.
This fix will allow to properly use the sysfs per namespace which is
coming from -mm tree.

The forwarding table binary interface (my bad choice), only exposes
the port number of the first 8 bits. The bridge code was limited to
256 ports at the time, but now the kernel supports up 1024 ports, so
the upper bits are lost when doing:
brctl showmacs
The fix is to squeeze the extra bits into small hole left in data
structure, to maintain binary compatiablity.

WARN_ON_ONCE() gives a stack trace including the full module list.
Having this in the kernel dump for the timeout case in the
generic netdev watchdog will help us see quicker which driver
is involved. It also allows us to collect statistics
and patterns in terms of which drivers have this event occuring.

Rename div64_64 to div64_u64 to make it consistent with the other divide
functions, so it clearly includes the type of the divide. Move its definition
to math64.h as currently no architecture overrides the generic implementation.
They can still override it of course, but the duplicated declarations are
avoided.

The last hunk from the commit dae50295 (ipv4/ipv6 compat: Fix SSM
applications on 64bit kernels.) escaped from the compat_ipv6_setsockopt
to the ipv6_getsockopt (I guess due to patch smartness wrt searching
for context) thus breaking 32-bit and 64-bit-without-compat compilation.

- Operations are now a shared const function block as with most other Linux
objects
- Introduce wrappers for some optional functions to get consistent behaviour
- Wrap put_char which used to be patched by the tty layer
- Document which functions are needed/optional
- Make put_char report success/fail
- Cache the driver->ops pointer in the tty as tty->ops
- Remove various surplus lock calls we no longer need
- Remove proc_write method as noted by Alexey Dobriyan
- Introduce some missing sanity checks where certain driver/ldisc
combinations would oops as they didn't check needed methods were present

There is an overflow bug in net/ipv4/tcp_vegas.c for large BDPs
(e.g. 400Mbit/s, 400ms). The multiplication (old_wnd *
vegas->baseRTT) << V_PARAM_SHIFT overflows a u32.

Problem: ip_append_data() could wrongly generate a chained skb for
devices which support UFO. When sk_write_queue is not empty
(e.g. MSG_MORE), __instead__ of appending data into the next nr_frag
of the queued skb, a new chained skb is created.
I would normally assume UFO device should get data in nr_frags and not
in frag_list. Later the udp4_hwcsum_outgoing() resets csum to NONE
and skb_gso_segment() has oops.
Proposal:
1. Even length is less than mtu, employ ip_ufo_append_data()
and append data to the __existed__ skb in the sk_write_queue.
2. ip_ufo_append_data() is fixed due to a wrong manipulation of
peek-ing and later enqueue-ing of the same skb. Now, enqueuing is
always performed, because on error the further
ip_flush_pending_frames() would release the queued skb.
