6a8b7f0c85 netlabel: use domain based selectors when address based selectors are not available
NetLabel has the ability to selectively assign network security labels
to outbound traffic based on either the LSM's "domain" (different for
each LSM), the network destination, or a combination of both.  Depending
on the type of traffic, local or forwarded, and the type of traffic
selector, domain or address based, different hooks are used to label the
traffic; the goal being minimal overhead.

Unfortunately, there is a bug such that a system using NetLabel domain
based traffic selectors does not correctly label outbound local traffic
that is not assigned to a socket.  The issue is that in these cases
the associated NetLabel hook only looks at the address based selectors
and not the domain based selectors.  This patch corrects this by
checking both the domain and address based selectors so that the correct
labeling is applied, regardless of the configuration type.

In order to acomplish this fix, this patch also simplifies some of the
NetLabel domainhash structures to use a more common outbound traffic
mapping type: struct netlbl_dommap_def.  This simplifies some of the code
in this patch and paves the way for further simplifications in the
future.

5f671d6b4e net: check net.core.somaxconn sysctl values
It's possible to assign an invalid value to the net.core.somaxconn
sysctl variable, because there is no checks at all.

The sk_max_ack_backlog field of the sock structure is defined as
unsigned short. Therefore, the backlog argument in inet_listen()
shouldn't exceed USHRT_MAX. The backlog argument in the listen() syscall
is truncated to the somaxconn value. So, the somaxconn value shouldn't
exceed 65535 (USHRT_MAX).
Also, negative values of somaxconn are meaningless.

before:
$ sysctl -w net.core.somaxconn=256
net.core.somaxconn = 256
$ sysctl -w net.core.somaxconn=65536
net.core.somaxconn = 65536
$ sysctl -w net.core.somaxconn=-100
net.core.somaxconn = -100

after:
$ sysctl -w net.core.somaxconn=256
net.core.somaxconn = 256
$ sysctl -w net.core.somaxconn=65536
error: "Invalid argument" setting key "net.core.somaxconn"
$ sysctl -w net.core.somaxconn=-100
error: "Invalid argument" setting key "net.core.somaxconn"

Based on a prior patch from Changli Gao.

cbd375567f htb: fix sign extension bug
When userspace passes a large priority value
the assignment of the unsigned value hopt->prio
to  signed int cl->prio causes cl->prio to become negative and the
comparison is with TC_HTB_NUMPRIO is always false.

The result is that HTB crashes by referencing outside
the array when processing packets. With this patch the large value
wraps around like other values outside the normal range.

We have the following call chain:

tipc_core_start()
    ret = tipc_subscr_start()
        ret = tipc_server_start(){
                  server->enabled = 1;
                  ret = tipc_open_listening_sock()
              }

I.e., the server->enabled flag is unconditionally set to 1, whatever
the return value of tipc_open_listening_sock().

This causes a crash when tipc_core_start() tries to clean up
resources after a failed initialization:

    if (ret == failed)
        tipc_subscr_stop()
            tipc_server_stop(){
                if (server->enabled)
                    tipc_close_conn(){
                        NULL reference of con->sock-sk
                        OOPS!
                }
            }

To avoid this, tipc_server_start() should only set server->enabled
to 1 in case of a succesful socket creation. In case of failure, it
should release all allocated resources before returning.

Problem introduced in commit c5fa7b3cf3
("tipc: introduce new TIPC server infrastructure") in v3.11-rc1.
Note that it won't be seen often; it takes a module load under memory
constrained conditions in order to trigger the failure condition.

8a226b2cfa ipv6: prevent race between address creation and removal
There's a race in IPv6 automatic addess assignment. The address is created
with zero lifetime when it's added to various address lists. Before it gets
assigned the correct lifetime, there's a window where a new address may be
configured. This causes the semi-initiated address to be deleted in
addrconf_verify.

This was discovered as a reference leak caused by concurrent run of
__ipv6_ifa_notify for both RTM_NEWADDR and RTM_DELADDR with the same
address.

Fix this by setting the lifetime before the address is added to
inet6_addr_lst.

A few notes:

1. In addrconf_prefix_rcv, by setting update_lft to zero, the
   if (update_lft) { ... } condition is no longer executed for newly
   created addresses. This is okay, as the ifp fields are set in
   ipv6_add_addr now and ipv6_ifa_notify is called (and has been called)
   through addrconf_dad_start.

2. The removal of the whole block under ifp->lock in inet6_addr_add is okay,
   too, as tstamp is initialized to jiffies in ipv6_add_addr.

49a18d86f6 ipv6: update ip6_rt_last_gc every time GC is run
As pointed out by Eric Dumazet, net->ipv6.ip6_rt_last_gc should
hold the last time garbage collector was run so that we should
update it whenever fib6_run_gc() calls fib6_clean_all(), not only
if we got there from ip6_dst_gc().

2ac3ac8f86 ipv6: prevent fib6_run_gc() contention
On a high-traffic router with many processors and many IPv6 dst
entries, soft lockup in fib6_run_gc() can occur when number of
entries reaches gc_thresh.

This happens because fib6_run_gc() uses fib6_gc_lock to allow
only one thread to run the garbage collector but ip6_dst_gc()
doesn't update net->ipv6.ip6_rt_last_gc until fib6_run_gc()
returns. On a system with many entries, this can take some time
so that in the meantime, other threads pass the tests in
ip6_dst_gc() (ip6_rt_last_gc is still not updated) and wait for
the lock. They then have to run the garbage collector one after
another which blocks them for quite long.

Resolve this by replacing special value ~0UL of expire parameter
to fib6_run_gc() by explicit "force" parameter to choose between
spin_lock_bh() and spin_trylock_bh() and call fib6_run_gc() with
force=false if gc_thresh is reached but not max_size.

1f1059fcf0 Merge branch 'for-davem' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linville/wireless
John W. Linville says:

====================
This pull request is intended for the 3.11 stream.  It is a bit
larger than usual, as it includes pulls from most of my feeder trees
as well...

For the Bluetooth bits, Gustavo says:

"A few fixes and devices ID additions for 3.11:

 * There are 4 new ath3k device ids
 * Fixed stack memory usage in ath3k.
 * Fixed the init process of BlueFRITZ! devices, they were failing to init
   due to an unsupported command we sent.
 * Fixed wrong use of PTR_ERR in btusb code that was preventing intel devices
   to work properly.
 * Fixed race condition between hci_register_dev() and hci_dev_open() that
   could cause a NULL pointer dereference.
 * Fixed race condition that could call hci_req_cmd_complete() and make some
   devices to fail as showed in the log added to the commit message."

Regarding the NFC bits, Samuel says:

"We have:

1) A build failure fix for the NCI SPI transport layer due to a
   missing CRC_CCITT Kconfig dependency.

2) A netlink command rename: CMD_FW_UPLOAD was merged during the 3.11
   merge window but the typical terminology for loading a firmware to a
   target is firmware download rather than upload. In order to avoid any
   confusion in a file exported to userspace, we rename this command to
   CMD_FW_DOWNLOAD."

Samuel's item #2 isn't strictly a fix, but it seems safe and should
avoid confusion in the future.

As for the mac80211 bits, Johannes says:

"I only have three fixes this time, a fix for a suspend regression, a
patch correcting the initiator in regulatory code and one fix for mesh
station powersave."

With respect to the iwlwifi bits, Johannes says:

"We have a scan fix for passive channels, a new PCI device ID for an old
device, a NIC reset fix, an RF-Kill fix, a fix for powersave when GO
interfaces are present as well as an aggregation session fix (for a
corner case) and a workaround for a firmware design issue - it only
supports a single GTK in D3."

Bringing-up the rear with the Atheros trees, Kalle says:

"Geert Uytterhoeven fixed an ath10k build problem when NO_DMA=y. I added
a missing MAINTAINERS entry for ath10k and updated ath6kl git tree
location."

Along with the above...

Arend van Spriel fixes a brcmfmac WARNING when unplugging the device.

Avinash Patil proves a couple of minor mwifiex fixes relating to P2P mode.

Luciano Coelho updates the MAINTAINERS entry for the wilink drivers.

Stanislaw Gruszka brings an rt2x00 fix for a queue start/stop problem.

Stone Piao fixes another mwifiex problem, a command timeout related to P2P mode.

Tomasz Moń corrects an endian problem in mwifiex.

I'll remind my feeder maintainers to slowdown the patchflow.
Beyond that, please let me know if there are problems!

b00589af3b bridge: disable snooping if there is no querier
If there is no querier on a link then we won't get periodic reports and
therefore won't be able to learn about multicast listeners behind ports,
potentially leading to lost multicast packets, especially for multicast
listeners that joined before the creation of the bridge.

These lost multicast packets can appear since c5c2326059
("bridge: Add multicast_querier toggle and disable queries by default")
in particular.

With this patch we are flooding multicast packets if our querier is
disabled and if we didn't detect any other querier.

A grace period of the Maximum Response Delay of the querier is added to
give multicast responses enough time to arrive and to be learned from
before disabling the flooding behaviour again.

cf3c4c0306 8139cp: Add dma_mapping_error checking
Self explanitory dma_mapping_error addition to the 8139 driver, based on this:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=947250

It showed several backtraces arising for dma_map_* usage without checking the
return code on the mapping.  Add the check and abort the rx/tx operation if its
failed.  Untested as I have no hardware and the reporter has wandered off, but
seems pretty straightforward.

5445eaf309 mvneta: Try to fix mvneta when compiled as module
When the mvneta driver is compiled as module, the clock is disabled before
it's loading. This will reset the registers values and all configuration
made by the bootloader.

This patch sets the "sgmii serdes configuration" register to a magical value
found in:
https://github.com/yellowback/ubuntu-precise-armadaxp/blob/master/arch/arm/mach-armadaxp/armada_xp_family/ctrlEnv/mvCtrlEnvLib.c

With this change, the interrupts are working/generated and ethernet is
working.

aded09555b mvneta: Fix hang when loading the mvneta driver
When the mvneta driver is compiled, it'll be loaded with clocks disabled.
This implies that the clocks should be enabled again before any register
access or it'll hang.

To fix it:
- enable clock earlier
- move timer callback after setting timer.data

Please try the following patch : It should use 2K frags instead of 4K
for normal 1500 mtu

Thanks !

[PATCH] atl1c: use custom skb allocator

We had reports ( https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=54021 )
that using high order pages for skb allocations is problematic for atl1c

We do not know exactly what the problem is, but we suspect that crossing
4K pages is not well supported by this hardware.

Use a custom allocator, using page allocator and 2K fragments for
optimal stack behavior. We might make this allocator generic
in future kernels.
