80e5b06a1b cfg80211: fix NULL dereference in IBSS SIOCGIWAP
This patch avoids memcpy from wdev->wext.ibss.bssid if it is NULL.
This could happen if we SIOCGIWAP before SIOCSIWAP.

fffd0934b9 cfg80211: rework key operation
This reworks the key operation in cfg80211, and now only
allows, from userspace, configuring keys (via nl80211)
after the connection has been established (in managed
mode), the IBSS been joined (in IBSS mode), at any time
(in AP[_VLAN] modes) or never for all the other modes.

In order to do shared key authentication correctly, it
is now possible to give a WEP key to the AUTH command.
To configure static WEP keys, these are given to the
CONNECT or IBSS_JOIN command directly, for a userspace
SME it is assumed it will configure it properly after
the connection has been established.

Since mac80211 used to check the default key in IBSS
mode to see whether or not the network is protected,
it needs an update in that area, as well as an update
to make use of the WEP key passed to auth() for shared
key authentication.

b9454e83ca nl80211: introduce new key attributes
We will soon want to nest key attributes into
some new attribute for configuring static WEP
keys at connect() and ibss_join() time, so we
need nested attributes for that. However, key
attributes right now are 'global'. This patch
thus introduces new nested attributes for the
key settings and functions for parsing them.

4bde0f7d1d cfg80211: fix two buglets
This fixes two small bugs:
 1) the connect variable is already initialised, and the
    assignment to auth_type overwrites the previous setting
    with a wrong value
 2) when all authentication attempts fail, we need to report

e2e414d923 mac80211: disable mesh
My kvm instance was complaining a lot about sleeping
in atomic contexts in the mesh code, and it turns out
that both mesh_path_add() and mpp_path_add() need to
be able to sleep (they even use synchronize_rcu()!).
I put in a might_sleep() to annotate that, but I see
no way, at least right now, of actually making sure
those functions are only called from process context
since they are both called during TX and RX and the
mesh code itself even calls them with rcu_read_lock()
"held".

Therefore, let's disable it completely for now.

It's possible that I'm only seeing this because the
hwsim's beaconing is broken and thus the peers aren't
discovered right away, but it is possible that this
happens even if beaconing is working, for a peer that
doesn't exist or so.

It should be possible to solve this by deferring the
freeing of the tables to call_rcu() instead of using
synchronize_rcu(), and also using atomic allocations,
but maybe it makes more sense to rework the code to
not call these from atomic contexts and defer more of
the work to the workqueue. Right now, I can't work on
either of those solutions though.

02a6a2592e RDS/IB: Handle connections using RDS 3.0 wire protocol
The big differences between RDS 3.0 and 3.1 are protocol-level
flow control, and with 3.1 the header is in front of the data. The header
always ends up in the header buffer, and the data goes in the data page.

In 3.0 our "header" is a trailer, and will end up either in the data
page, the header buffer, or split across the two. Since 3.1 is backwards-
compatible with 3.0, we need to continue to support these cases. This
patch does that -- if using RDS 3.0 wire protocol, it will copy the header
from wherever it ended up into the header buffer.

be916cdebe ipv4: Fix inflate_threshold_root automatically
During large updates there could be triggered warnings like: "Fix
inflate_threshold_root. Now=25 size=11 bits" if inflate() of the root
node isn't finished in 10 loops. It should be much rarer now, after
changing the threshold from 15 to 25, and a temporary problem, so
this patch tries to handle it automatically using a fix variable to
increase by one inflate threshold for next root resizes (up to the 35
limit, max fix = 10). The fix variable is decreased when root's
inflate() finishes below 7 loops (even if some other, smaller table/
trie is updated -- for simplicity the fix variable is global for now).

c3059477fc ipv4: Use synchronize_rcu() during trie_rebalance()
During trie_rebalance() we free memory after resizing with call_rcu(),
but large updates, especially with PREEMPT_NONE configs, can cause
memory stresses, so this patch calls synchronize_rcu() in
tnode_free_flush() after each sync_pages to guarantee such freeing
(especially before resizing the root node).

The value of sync_pages = 128 is based on Pawel Staszewski's tests as
the lowest which doesn't hinder updating times. (For testing purposes
there was a sysfs module parameter to change it on demand, but it's
removed until we're sure it could be really useful.)

4dc6dc7162 net: sock_copy() fixes
Commit e912b1142b
(net: sk_prot_alloc() should not blindly overwrite memory)
took care of not zeroing whole new socket at allocation time.

sock_copy() is another spot where we should be very careful.
We should not set refcnt to a non null value, until
we are sure other fields are correctly setup, or
a lockless reader could catch this socket by mistake,
while not fully (re)initialized.

This patch puts sk_node & sk_refcnt to the very beginning
of struct sock to ease sock_copy() & sk_prot_alloc() job.

We add appropriate smp_wmb() before sk_refcnt initializations
to match our RCU requirements (changes to sock keys should
be committed to memory before sk_refcnt setting)

941297f443 netfilter: nf_conntrack: nf_conntrack_alloc() fixes
When a slab cache uses SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU, we must be careful when allocating
objects, since slab allocator could give a freed object still used by lockless
readers.

In particular, nf_conntrack RCU lookups rely on ct->tuplehash[xxx].hnnode.next
being always valid (ie containing a valid 'nulls' value, or a valid pointer to next
object in hash chain.)

kmem_cache_zalloc() setups object with NULL values, but a NULL value is not valid
for ct->tuplehash[xxx].hnnode.next.

Fix is to call kmem_cache_alloc() and do the zeroing ourself.

As spotted by Patrick, we also need to make sure lookup keys are committed to
memory before setting refcount to 1, or a lockless reader could get a reference
on the old version of the object. Its key re-check could then pass the barrier.
