afe3c3fd53 svcrpc: fix failures to handle -1 uid's and gid's
As of f025adf191 "sunrpc: Properly decode
kuids and kgids in RPC_AUTH_UNIX credentials" any rpc containing a -1
(0xffff) uid or gid would fail with a badcred error.

Reported symptoms were xmbc clients failing on upgrade of the NFS
server; examination of the network trace showed them sending -1 as the
gid.

4e713cdffb HID: Bluetooth: hidp: register HID devices async
While l2cap_user callbacks are running, the whole hci_dev is locked. Even
if we would add more fine-grained locking to HCI core, it would still be
called from the non-reentrant rx work-queue and thus block the event
processing.

However, if we want to perform synchronous I/O during HID device
registration (eg., to perform device-detection), we need the HCI core
to be able to dispatch incoming data.

Therefore, we now move device-registration to a separate worker. The HCI
core can continue running and we add devices asynchronously in another
kernel thread. Device removal is synchronized and waits for the worker
to exit before calling the usual device removal functions.

If l2cap_user->remove is called before the thread registered the devices,
we set "terminate" to true and the thread will skip it. If
l2cap_user->remove is called after it, we notice this as the device
is no longer in HIDP_SESSION_PREPARING state and simply unregister the
device as we did before.
There is no new deadlock as we now call hidp_session_add_dev() with
one lock less held (the HCI lock) and it cannot itself call back into
HCI as it was called with the HCI-lock held before.

One might wonder whether this can block during device unregistration.
But we set "terminate" to true and wake the HIDP thread up _before_
unregistering the HID/input devices. Therefore, all pending HID I/O
operations are canceled. All further I/O attempts will fail with ENODEV
or EIO. So all latency we can get are few context-switches, but no
timeouts or blocking I/O waits!

This change also prepares for a long standing HID bug. All HID devices
that register power_supply devices need to be able to handle callbacks
during registration (a power_supply oddity that cannot easily be fixed).
So with this patch available, we can allow HID I/O during registration
by calling the recently introduced hid_device_io_start/stop helpers,
which currently are a no-op for bluetooth due to this locking.

Note that we cannot do the same for input devices. input-core doesn't
allow us to call input_event() asynchronously to input_register_device(),
which HID-core kindly allows (for good reasons).
Fixing input-core to allow this isn't as easy as it sounds and is,
beside simplifying HIDP, not really an improvement. Hence, we still
register input devices synchronously as we did before. Only HID devices
are registered asynchronously.

f4d57941bf mac80211: always send multicast on CAB queue
If the driver advertised support for a CAB queue, then we
should put all multicast frames there, otherwise sending
them can be racy with clients going to sleep while we TX
a frame. To avoid this, always TX multicast frames on the
multicast queue.

It seems like even drivers not using the queue framework
might want to do this which would mean also moving the
IEEE80211_TX_CTL_SEND_AFTER_DTIM flag assignment, but it
also seems that drivers behave differently here so that
just moving it wouldn't be a good idea. It'd be better to
modify those drivers to use the queue framework.

Subject: [PATCH 5/5] net: Block MSG_CMSG_COMPAT in send(m)msg and recv(m)msg

MSG_CMSG_COMPAT is (AFAIK) not intended to be part of the API --
it's a hack that steals a bit to indicate to other networking code
that a compat entry was used.  So don't allow it from a non-compat
syscall.

This prevents an oops when running this code:

int main()
{
	int s;
	struct sockaddr_in addr;
	struct msghdr *hdr;

	char *highpage = mmap((void*)(TASK_SIZE_MAX - 4096), 4096,
	                      PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE,
	                      MAP_PRIVATE | MAP_ANONYMOUS | MAP_FIXED, -1, 0);
	if (highpage == MAP_FAILED)
		err(1, "mmap");

	s = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_DGRAM, IPPROTO_UDP);
	if (s == -1)
		err(1, "socket");

        addr.sin_family = AF_INET;
        addr.sin_port = htons(1);
        addr.sin_addr.s_addr = htonl(INADDR_LOOPBACK);
	if (connect(s, (struct sockaddr*)&addr, sizeof(addr)) != 0)
		err(1, "connect");

	void *evil = highpage + 4096 - COMPAT_MSGHDR_SIZE;
	printf("Evil address is %p\n", evil);

	if (syscall(__NR_sendmmsg, s, evil, 1, MSG_CMSG_COMPAT) < 0)
		err(1, "sendmmsg");

	return 0;
}

7cc4619005 net, ipv4, ipv6: Correct assignment of skb->network_header to skb->tail
This corrects an regression introduced by "net: Use 16bits for *_headers
fields of struct skbuff" when NET_SKBUFF_DATA_USES_OFFSET is not set. In
that case skb->tail will be a pointer however skb->network_header is now

This patch corrects the problem by adding a wrapper to return skb tail as
an offset regardless of the value of NET_SKBUFF_DATA_USES_OFFSET. It seems
that skb->tail that this offset may be more than 64k and some care has been
taken to treat such cases as an error.

6390460af8 net/9p: Handle error in zero copy request correctly for 9p2000.u
For zero copy request, error will be encoded in the user space buffer.
So copy the error code correctly using copy_from_user. Here we use the
extra bytes we allocate for zero copy request. If total error details
are more than P9_ZC_HDR_SZ - 7 bytes, we return -EFAULT. The patch also
avoid a memory allocation in the error path.

If we dont' specify a protocol version default to 9P2000.L. 9P2000.L
have better support for posix semantic and is where all the recent development
is happening.

f96ef988cc ipv4: fix redirect handling for TCP packets
Unlike ipv4_redirect() and ipv4_sk_redirect(), ip_do_redirect()
doesn't call __build_flow_key() directly but via
ip_rt_build_flow_key() wrapper. This leads to __build_flow_key()
getting pointer to IPv4 header of the ICMP redirect packet
rather than pointer to the embedded IPv4 header of the packet
initiating the redirect.

As a result, handling of ICMP redirects initiated by TCP packets
is broken. Issue was introduced by

	4895c771c ("ipv4: Add FIB nexthop exceptions.")

da6e378ba9 netpoll: remove return value from netpoll_rx_disable()
The netpoll_rx_disable() will always return 0, it is no use and looks wordy,
so remove the unnecessary code and get rid of it in _dev_open and _dev_close.

0d89d2035f MPLS: Add limited GSO support
In the case where a non-MPLS packet is received and an MPLS stack is
added it may well be the case that the original skb is GSO but the
NIC used for transmit does not support GSO of MPLS packets.

The aim of this code is to provide GSO in software for MPLS packets
whose skbs are GSO.

SKB Usage:

When an implementation adds an MPLS stack to a non-MPLS packet it should do
the following to skb metadata:

* Set skb->inner_protocol to the old non-MPLS ethertype of the packet.
  skb->inner_protocol is added by this patch.

* Set skb->protocol to the new MPLS ethertype of the packet.

* Set skb->network_header to correspond to the
  end of the L3 header, including the MPLS label stack.

I have posted a patch, "[PATCH v3.29] datapath: Add basic MPLS support to
kernel" which adds MPLS support to the kernel datapath of Open vSwtich.
That patch sets the above requirements in datapath/actions.c:push_mpls()
and was used to exercise this code.  The datapath patch is against the Open
vSwtich tree but it is intended that it be added to the Open vSwtich code
present in the mainline Linux kernel at some point.

Features:

I believe that the approach that I have taken is at least partially
consistent with the handling of other protocols.  Jesse, I understand that
you have some ideas here.  I am more than happy to change my implementation.

This patch adds dev->mpls_features which may be used by devices
to advertise features supported for MPLS packets.

A new NETIF_F_MPLS_GSO feature is added for devices which support
hardware MPLS GSO offload.  Currently no devices support this
and MPLS GSO always falls back to software.

Alternate Implementation:

One possible alternate implementation is to teach netif_skb_features()
and skb_network_protocol() about MPLS, in a similar way to their
understanding of VLANs. I believe this would avoid the need
for net/mpls/mpls_gso.c and in particular the calls to
__skb_push() and __skb_push() in mpls_gso_segment().

I have decided on the implementation in this patch as it should
not introduce any overhead in the case where mpls_gso is not compiled
into the kernel or inserted as a module.

MPLS GSO suggested by Jesse Gross.

6abb9cb99f cfg80211: make WoWLAN configuration available to drivers
Make the current WoWLAN configuration available to drivers
at runtime. This isn't really useful for the normal WoWLAN
behaviour and accessing it can also be racy, but drivers
may use it for testing the WoWLAN device behaviour while
the host stays up & running to observe the device.
