5b4d383a1a [ICMP]: ICMP_MIB_OUTMSGS increment duplicated
Commit "96793b482540f3a26e2188eaf75cb56b7829d3e3" (Add ICMPMsgStats
MIB (RFC 4293)) made a mistake.

In that patch, David L added a icmp_out_count() in
ip_push_pending_frames(), remove icmp_out_count() from
icmp_reply(). But he forgot to remove icmp_out_count() from
icmp_send() too.  Since icmp_send and icmp_reply will call
icmp_push_reply, which will call ip_push_pending_frames, a duplicated
increment happened in icmp_send.

This patch remove the icmp_out_count from icmp_send too.

68365458a4 [NET]: rtnl_link: fix use-after-free
When unregistering the rtnl_link_ops, all existing devices using
the ops are destroyed. With nested devices this may lead to a
use-after-free despite the use of for_each_netdev_safe() in case
the upper device is next in the device list and is destroyed
by the NETDEV_UNREGISTER notifier.

The easy fix is to restart scanning the device list after removing
a device. Alternatively we could add new devices to the front of
the list to avoid having dependant devices follow the device they
depend on. A third option would be to only restart scanning if
dev->iflink of the next device matches dev->ifindex of the current
one. For now this seems like the safest solution.

With this patch, the veth rtnl_link_ops unregistration can use
rtnl_link_unregister() directly since it now also handles destruction
of multiple devices at once.

2dc2f207fb [NETFILTER]: bridge-netfilter: fix net_device refcnt leaks
When packets are flood-forwarded to multiple output devices, the
bridge-netfilter code reuses skb->nf_bridge for each clone to store
the bridge port. When queueing packets using NFQUEUE netfilter takes
a reference to skb->nf_bridge->physoutdev, which is overwritten
when the packet is forwarded to the second port. This causes
refcount unterflows for the first device and refcount leaks for all
others. Additionally this provides incorrect data to the iptables
physdev match.

Unshare skb->nf_bridge by copying it if it is shared before assigning
the physoutdev device.

Reported, tested and based on initial patch by
Jan Christoph Nordholz <hesso@pool.math.tu-berlin.de>.

398bcbebb6 [IPV6] ROUTE: Make sending algorithm more friendly with RFC 4861.
We omit (or delay) sending NSes for known-to-unreachable routers (in
NUD_FAILED state) according to RFC 4191 (Default Router Preferences
and More-Specific Routes).  But this is not fully compatible with RFC
4861 (Neighbor Discovery Protocol for IPv6), which does not remember
unreachability of neighbors.

So, let's avoid mixing sending algorithm of RFC 4191 and that of RFC
4861, and make the algorithm more friendly with RFC 4861 if RFC 4191
is disabled.

Issue was found by IPv6 Ready Logo Core Self_Test 1.5.0b2 (by TAHI

8d3f099abe [IPV4] FIB_HASH : Avoid unecessary loop in fn_hash_dump_zone()
I noticed "ip route list" was slower than "cat /proc/net/route" on a
machine with a full Internet routing table (214392 entries : Special
thanks to Robert ;) )

This is similar to problem reported in commit
d8c9283089 ("[IPV4] ROUTE: ip_rt_dump()
is unecessary slow")

Fix is to avoid scanning the begining of fz_hash table, but directly
seek to the right offset.

Before patch :

time ip route >/tmp/ROUTE

real    0m1.285s
user    0m0.712s
sys     0m0.436s

After patch

# time ip route >/tmp/ROUTE

2948d2ebbb [NETFILTER]: bridge: fix double POST_ROUTING invocation
The bridge code incorrectly causes two POST_ROUTING hook invocations
for DNATed packets that end up on the same bridge device. This
happens because packets with a changed destination address are passed
to dst_output() to make them go through the neighbour output function
again to build a new destination MAC address, before they will continue
through the IP hooks simulated by bridge netfilter.

The resulting hook order is:
 PREROUTING	(bridge netfilter)
 POSTROUTING	(dst_output -> ip_output)
 FORWARD	(bridge netfilter)
 POSTROUTING	(bridge netfilter)

The deferred hooks used to abort the first POST_ROUTING invocation,
but since the only thing bridge netfilter actually really wants is
a new MAC address, we can avoid going through the IP stack completely
by simply calling the neighbour output function directly.

Tested, reported and lots of data provided by: Damien Thebault <damien.thebault@gmail.com>

lockdep is worried about the different order here:

#1 (rose_neigh_list_lock){-+..}:
#3 (ax25_list_lock){-+..}:

#0 (linkfail_lock){-+..}:
#1 (rose_neigh_list_lock){-+..}:

#3 (ax25_list_lock){-+..}:
#0 (linkfail_lock){-+..}:

So, ax25_list_lock could be taken before and after linkfail_lock. 
I don't know if this three-thread clutch is very probable (or
possible at all), but it seems another bug reported by Bernard
("[...] system impossible to reboot with linux-2.6.24-rc5")
could have similar source - namely ax25_list_lock held by
ax25_kill_by_device() during ax25_disconnect(). It looks like the
only place which calls ax25_disconnect() this way, so I guess, it
isn't necessary.

This patch is breaking the lock for ax25_disconnect().

9cd4002942 [NEIGH]: Fix race between neigh_parms_release and neightbl_fill_parms
The neightbl_fill_parms() is called under the write-locked tbl->lock
and accesses the parms->dev. The negh_parm_release() calls the
dev_put(parms->dev) without this lock. This creates a tiny race window
on which the parms contains potentially stale dev pointer.

To fix this race it's enough to move the dev_put() upper under the
tbl->lock, but note, that the parms are held by neighbors and thus can
live after the neigh_parms_release() is called, so we still can have a
parm with bad dev pointer.

I didn't find where the neigh->parms->dev is accessed, but still think
that putting the dev is to be done in a place, where the parms are
really freed. Am I right with that?

02f1c89d6e [NET]: Clone the sk_buff 'iif' field in __skb_clone()
Both NetLabel and SELinux (other LSMs may grow to use it as well) rely
on the 'iif' field to determine the receiving network interface of
inbound packets.  Unfortunately, at present this field is not
preserved across a skb clone operation which can lead to garbage
values if the cloned skb is sent back through the network stack.  This
patch corrects this problem by properly copying the 'iif' field in
__skb_clone() and removing the 'iif' field assignment from
skb_act_clone() since it is no longer needed.

Also, while we are here, put the assignments in the same order as the
offsets to reduce cacheline bounces.

    inet 192.168.0.2/32 scope global bar:2

a suffix to retain.

76975f8a31 [X25]: Add missing x25_neigh_put
The function x25_get_neigh increments a reference count.  At the point of
the second goto out, the result of calling x25_get_neigh is only stored in
a local variable, and thus no one outside the function will be able to
decrease the reference count.  Thus, x25_neigh_put should be called before
the return in this case.

The problem was found using the following semantic match.

2072c228c9 [TCP]: use non-delayed ACK for congestion control RTT
When a delayed ACK representing two packets arrives, there are two RTT
samples available, one for each packet.  The first (in order of seq
number) will be artificially long due to the delay waiting for the
second packet, the second will trigger the ACK and so will not itself
be delayed.

According to rfc1323, the SRTT used for RTO calculation should use the
first rtt, so receivers echo the timestamp from the first packet in
the delayed ack.  For congestion control however, it seems measuring
delayed ack delay is not desirable as it varies independently of
congestion.

The patch below causes seq_rtt and last_ackt to be updated with any
available later packet rtts which should have less (and hopefully
zero) delack delay.  The rtt value then gets passed to
ca_ops->pkts_acked().

Where TCP_CONG_RTT_STAMP was set, effort was made to supress RTTs from
within a TSO chunk (!fully_acked), using only the final ACK (which
includes any TSO delay) to generate RTTs.  This patch removes these
checks so RTTs are passed for each ACK to ca_ops->pkts_acked().

For non-delay based congestion control (cubic, h-tcp), rtt is
sometimes used for rtt-scaling.  In shortening the RTT, this may make
them a little less aggressive.  Delay-based schemes (eg vegas, veno,
illinois) should get a cleaner, more accurate congestion signal,
particularly for small cwnds.  The congestion control module can
potentially also filter out bad RTTs due to the delayed ack alarm by
looking at the associated cnt which (where delayed acking is in use)
should probably be 1 if the alarm went off or greater if the ACK was
triggered by a packet.

9cecd07c3f [IPV4] Fix ip=dhcp regression
David Brownell pointed out a regression in my recent "Fix ip command
line processing" patch. It turns out to be a fairly blatant oversight on
my part whereby ic_enable is never set, and thus autoconfiguration is
never enabled. Clearly my testing was broken :-(

The solution that I have is to set ic_enable to 1 if we hit
ip_auto_config_setup(), which basically means that autoconfiguration is
activated unless told otherwise. I then flip ic_enable to 0 if ip=off,
ip=none, ip=::::::off or ip=::::::none using ic_proto_name();

The incremental patch is below, let me know if a non-incremental version
is prepared, as I did as for the original patch to be reverted pending a
fix.

a6c05c3d06 [IPV4]: Fix ip command line processing.
Recently the documentation in Documentation/nfsroot.txt was
update to note that in fact ip=off and ip=::::::off as the
latter is ignored and the default (on) is used.

This was certainly a step in the direction of reducing confusion.
But it seems to me that the code ought to be fixed up so that
ip=::::::off actually turns off ip autoconfiguration.

This patch also notes more specifically that ip=on (aka ip=::::::on)
is the default.

fae718ddaf [NETFILTER]: nf_conntrack_ipv4: fix module parameter compatibility
Some users do "modprobe ip_conntrack hashsize=...". Since we have the
module aliases this loads nf_conntrack_ipv4 and nf_conntrack, the
hashsize parameter is unknown for nf_conntrack_ipv4 however and makes
it fail.

Allow to specify hashsize= for both nf_conntrack and nf_conntrack_ipv4.

Note: the nf_conntrack message in the ringbuffer will display an
incorrect hashsize since nf_conntrack is first pulled in as a
dependency and calculates the size itself, then it gets changed
through a call to nf_conntrack_set_hashsize().
