During bootup performance tracing we see repeated occurrences of
/sys/kernel/uid/* events for the same uid, leading to a,
in this case, rather pointless userspace processing for the
same uid over and over.
This is usually caused by tools which change their uid to "nobody",
to run without privileges to read data supplied by untrusted users.
This change delays the execution of the (already existing) scheduled
work, to cleanup the uid after one second, so the allocated and announced
uid can possibly be re-used by another process.
This is the current behavior, where almost every invocation of a
binary, which changes the uid, creates two events:
$ read START < /sys/kernel/uevent_seqnum; \
for i in `seq 100`; do su --shell=/bin/true bin; done; \
read END < /sys/kernel/uevent_seqnum; \
echo $(($END - $START))
178
With the delayed cleanup, we get only two events, and userspace finishes
a bit faster too:
$ read START < /sys/kernel/uevent_seqnum; \
for i in `seq 100`; do su --shell=/bin/true bin; done; \
read END < /sys/kernel/uevent_seqnum; \
echo $(($END - $START))

In ocfs2_add_branch, we use the rightmost rec of the leaf extent block
to generate the e_cpos for the newly added branch. In the most case, it
is OK but if the parent extent block's rightmost rec covers more clusters
than the leaf does, it will cause kernel panic if we insert some clusters
in it. The message is something like:
(7445,1):ocfs2_insert_at_leaf:3775 ERROR: bug expression:
le16_to_cpu(el->l_next_free_rec) >= le16_to_cpu(el->l_count)
(7445,1):ocfs2_insert_at_leaf:3775 ERROR: inode 66053, depth 0, count 28,

[<fa7b1b8b>] ? ocfs2_add_clusters_in_btree+0x37f/0x564 [ocfs2]
...
The panic can be easily reproduced by the following small test case
(with bs=512, cs=4K, and I remove all the error handling so that it looks
clear enough for reading).
int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
int fd, i;
char buf[5] = "test";
fd = open(argv[1], O_RDWR|O_CREAT);
for (i = 0; i < 30; i++) {
lseek(fd, 40960 * i, SEEK_SET);
write(fd, buf, 5);
}
ftruncate(fd, 1146880);
lseek(fd, 1126400, SEEK_SET);
write(fd, buf, 5);
close(fd);
return 0;
}
The reason of the panic is that:
the 30 writes and the ftruncate makes the file's extent list looks like:
Tree Depth: 1 Count: 19 Next Free Rec: 1
## Offset Clusters Block#
0 0 280 86183
SubAlloc Bit: 7 SubAlloc Slot: 0
Blknum: 86183 Next Leaf: 0
CRC32: 00000000 ECC: 0000
Tree Depth: 0 Count: 28 Next Free Rec: 28
## Offset Clusters Block# Flags
0 0 1 143368 0x0
1 10 1 143376 0x0
...
26 260 1 143576 0x0
27 270 1 143584 0x0
Now another write at 1126400(275 cluster) whiich will write at the gap
between 271 and 280 will trigger ocfs2_add_branch, but the result after
the function looks like:
Tree Depth: 1 Count: 19 Next Free Rec: 2
## Offset Clusters Block#
0 0 280 86183
1 271 0 143592
So the extent record is intersected and make the following operation bug out.
This patch just try to remove the gap before we add the new branch, so that
the root(branch) rightmost rec will cover the same right position. So in the
above case, before adding branch the tree will be changed to
Tree Depth: 1 Count: 19 Next Free Rec: 1
## Offset Clusters Block#
0 0 271 86183
SubAlloc Bit: 7 SubAlloc Slot: 0
Blknum: 86183 Next Leaf: 0
CRC32: 00000000 ECC: 0000
Tree Depth: 0 Count: 28 Next Free Rec: 28
## Offset Clusters Block# Flags
0 0 1 143368 0x0

...
26 260 1 143576 0x0
27 270 1 143584 0x0
And after branch add, the tree looks like
Tree Depth: 1 Count: 19 Next Free Rec: 2
## Offset Clusters Block#
0 0 271 86183
1 271 0 143592

When changing to a new BSSID or SSID, the code in

still valid to be able to disconnect and clean up
properly. Currently, however, the old data is thrown
away before ieee80211_set_disassoc() is ever called,
so fix that by calling the function _before_ the old

This is (one of) the issue(s) causing mac80211 to hold

returned in scan results after they're long gone.

If we do not disconnect when a channel switch is requested,
we end up eventually detection beacon loss from the AP and
then disconnecting, without ever really telling the AP, so
we might just as well disconnect right away.
Additionally, this fixes a problem with iwlwifi where the
driver will clear some internal state on channel changes
like this and then get confused when we actually go clear
that state from mac80211.
It may look like this patch drops the no-IBSS check, but
that is already handled by cfg80211 in the wext handler it
provides for IBSS (cfg80211_ibss_wext_siwfreq).

It looks like some programs (e.g., NM) are setting an empty SSID with
SIOCSIWESSID in some cases. This seems to trigger mac80211 to try to
associate with an invalid configuration (wildcard SSID) which will
result in failing associations (or odd issues, potentially including
kernel panic with some drivers) if the AP were to actually accept this
anyway).
Only start association process if the SSID is actually set. This
speeds up connection with NM in number of cases and avoids sending out
broken association request frames.
