Add a dev_alloc_skb variant that takes a struct net_device * paramater.
For now that paramater is unused, but I'll use it to allocate the skb
from node-local memory in a follow-up patch. Also there have been some
other plans mentioned on the list that can use it.

Based upon guidance from Alexey Kuznetsov.
When linger2 is active, we check to see if the fin_wait2
timeout is longer than the timewait. If it is, we schedule
the keepalive timer for the difference between the timewait
timeout and the fin_wait2 timeout.
When this orphan socket is seen by tcp_keepalive_timer()
it will try to transform this fin_wait2 socket into a
fin_wait2 mini-socket, again if linger2 is active.
Not all paths were setting this initial keepalive timer correctly.
The tcp input path was doing it correctly, but tcp_close() wasn't,
potentially making the socket linger longer than it really needs to.

The patch below fixes a problem in the iptables SECMARK target, where
the user-supplied 'selctx' string may not be nul-terminated.
From initial analysis, it seems that the strlen() called from
selinux_string_to_sid() could run until it arbitrarily finds a zero,
and possibly cause a kernel oops before then.
The impact of this appears limited because the operation requires
CAP_NET_ADMIN, which is essentially always root. Also, the module is
not yet in wide use.

Refer to RFC2012, tcpAttemptFails is defined as following:
tcpAttemptFails OBJECT-TYPE
SYNTAX Counter32
MAX-ACCESS read-only
STATUS current
DESCRIPTION
"The number of times TCP connections have made a direct
transition to the CLOSED state from either the SYN-SENT
state or the SYN-RCVD state, plus the number of times TCP
connections have made a direct transition to the LISTEN
state from the SYN-RCVD state."
::= { tcp 7 }
When I lookup into RFC793, I found that the state change should occured
under following condition:
1. SYN-SENT -> CLOSED
a) Received ACK,RST segment when SYN-SENT state.
2. SYN-RCVD -> CLOSED
b) Received SYN segment when SYN-RCVD state(came from LISTEN).
c) Received RST segment when SYN-RCVD state(came from SYN-SENT).
d) Received SYN segment when SYN-RCVD state(came from SYN-SENT).
3. SYN-RCVD -> LISTEN
e) Received RST segment when SYN-RCVD state(came from LISTEN).
In my test, those direct state transition can not be counted to
tcpAttemptFails.

The current users of ip6_dst_lookup can be divided into two classes:
1) The caller holds no locks and is in user-context (UDP).
2) The caller does not want to lookup the dst cache at all.
The second class covers everyone except UDP because most people do
the cache lookup directly before calling ip6_dst_lookup. This patch
adds ip6_sk_dst_lookup for the first class.
Similarly ip6_dst_store users can be divded into those that need to
take the socket dst lock and those that don't. This patch adds
__ip6_dst_store for those (everyone except UDP/datagram) that don't
need an extra lock.

When pskb_trim has to defer to ___pksb_trim to trim the frag_list part of
the packet, the frag_list is not updated to reflect the trimming. This
will usually work fine until you hit something that uses the packet length
or tail from the frag_list.
Examples include esp_output and ip_fragment.
Another problem caused by this is that you can end up with a linear packet
with a frag_list attached.
It is possible to get away with this if we audit everything to make sure
that they always consult skb->len before going down onto frag_list. In
fact we can do the samething for the paged part as well to avoid copying
the data area of the skb. For now though, let's do the conservative fix
and update frag_list.

I think there is still a problem with the AIMD parameter update in
HighSpeed TCP code.
Line 125~138 of the code (net/ipv4/tcp_highspeed.c):
/* Update AIMD parameters */
if (tp->snd_cwnd > hstcp_aimd_vals[ca->ai].cwnd) {
while (tp->snd_cwnd > hstcp_aimd_vals[ca->ai].cwnd &&
ca->ai < HSTCP_AIMD_MAX - 1)
ca->ai++;
} else if (tp->snd_cwnd < hstcp_aimd_vals[ca->ai].cwnd) {
while (tp->snd_cwnd > hstcp_aimd_vals[ca->ai].cwnd &&
ca->ai > 0)
ca->ai--;
In fact, the second part (decreasing ca->ai) never decreases since the
while loop's inequality is in the reverse direction. This leads to
unfairness with multiple flows (once a flow happens to enjoy a higher
ca->ai, it keeps enjoying that even its cwnd decreases)
Here is a tentative fix (I also added a comment, trying to keep the
change clear):

"return -err" and blindly inheriting the error code in the netlink
failure exception handler causes errors codes to be returned as
positive value therefore making them being ignored by the caller.
May lead to sending out incomplete netlink messages.

The TCA_ACT_KIND attribute is used without checking its
availability when dumping actions therefore leading to a
value of 0x4 being dereferenced.
The use of strcmp() in tc_lookup_action_n() isn't safe
when fed with string from an attribute without enforcing
proper NUL termination.
Both bugs can be triggered with malformed netlink message
and don't require any privileges.

WARNING: /lib/modules/2.6.17-mm2/kernel/net/ieee80211/ieee80211.ko
needs unknown symbol wireless_spy_update
Someone removed the `#ifdef CONFIG_WIRELESS_EXT' from around the callsite
in net/ieee80211/ieee80211_rx.c and didn't update Kconfig appropriately.

[PATCH] ieee80211: remove unnecessary CONFIG_WIRELESS_EXT checking
After a quick look it seems that wireless_spy_update() lives in
net/core/wirless.c, and that file is only compiled if
CONFIG_WIRELESS_EXT is set. Perhaps this is Kconig work, but
in the mean time here is a reversal of the recent change.

This patch addresses the "No queue exists" messages commonly seen during
authentication and associating. These appear due to scheduling multiple
authentication attempts on the same network. To prevent this, I added a
flag to stop multiple authentication attempts by the association layer.
I also added a check to the wx handler to see if we're connecting to a
different network than the one already in progress. This scenario was
causing multiple requests on the same network because the network BSSID
was not being updated despite the fact that the ESSID changed.

In commit ba9b28d19a, routine
ieee80211softmac_capabilities was added to ieee80211softmac_io.c. As
denoted by its name, it completes the capabilities IE that is
needed in the associate and reassociate requests sent to the
AP. For at least one AP, the Linksys WRT54G V5, the capabilities
field must set the 'short preamble' bit or the AP refuses to
associate. In the commit noted above, there is a call to the
new routine from ieee80211softmac_reassoc_req, but not from
ieee80211softmac_assoc_req. This patch fixes that oversight.
As noted in the subject, v2.6.17 is affected. My bcm43xx card had been
unable to associate since I was forced to buy a new AP. I finally was
able to get a packet dump and traced the problem to the capabilities
info. Although I had heard that a patch was "floating around", I had
not seen it before 2.6.17 was released. As this bug does not affect
security and I seem to have the only AP affected by it, there should
be no problem in leaving it for 2.6.18.

This patch adds the module parameter disable_cfc which can be used to
disable the credit based flow control. The credit based flow control
was introduced with the Bluetooth 1.1 specification and devices can
negotiate its support, but for testing purpose it is helpful to allow
disabling of it.
