| * [NET]: Use local_irq_{save,restore}() in napi_complete().David S. Miller2008-03-271-2/+4

Since ->poll() can be invoked from netpoll with interrupts disabled, we must not unconditionally enable interrupts in napi_complete(). Instead we must use local_irq_{save,restore}().

| * [ESP]: Ensure IV is in linear part of the skb to avoid BUG() due to OOB accessThomas Graf2008-03-272-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ESP does not account for the IV size when calling pskb_may_pull() to ensure everything it accesses directly is within the linear part of a potential fragment. This results in a BUG() being triggered when the both the IPv4 and IPv6 ESP stack is fed with an skb where the first fragment ends between the end of the esp header and the end of the IV.

| * [IPSEC]: Fix BEET outputHerbert Xu2008-03-265-6/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The IPv6 BEET output function is incorrectly including the inner header in the payload to be protected. This causes a crash as the packet doesn't actually have that many bytes for a second header. The IPv4 BEET output on the other hand is broken when it comes to handling an inner IPv6 header since it always assumes an inner IPv4 header. This patch fixes both by making sure that neither BEET output function touches the inner header at all. All access is now done through the protocol-independent cb structure. Two new attributes are added to make this work, the IP header length and the IPv4 option length. They're filled in by the inner mode's output function. Thanks to Joakim Koskela for finding this problem. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

| | * iwlwifi: fix __devexit_p points to __devexit functionsReinette Chatre2008-03-242-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The iwlxxxx_pci_remove functions are not needed when drivers are not compiled as modules - they can thus be discarded at kernel link time. This is already captured by having them as __devexit_p in the pci_driver struct - these are supposed to be pointers to __devexit functions, but was not. This is now fixed. This problem was reported by Toralf Forster when testing the compilation of 2.6.25-rc6.

This is technically a false positive, since the uses in sge.c are only in the initialization and cleanup paths and cannot overlap with any use in interrupt context. The best fix is probably just to use spin_lock_irq() with reg_lock in sge.c. Even though it's not strictly required for correctness, it avoids triggering lockdep and the extra overhead of disabling interrupts is not important at all in the initialization and cleanup slow paths.

There's one exception from this rule - the ipv6's ndisc_recv_ns() uses found entry to check the flags for NTF_ROUTER. This creates a race between the ndisc and pneigh_delete - after the pneigh is returned to the caller, the nd_tbl.lock is dropped and the deleting procedure may proceed. One of the fixes would be to add a reference counting, but this problem exists for ndisc only. Besides such a patch would be too big for -rc4. So I propose to introduce a __pneigh_lookup() which is supposed to be called with the lock held and use it in ndisc code to check the flags on alive pneigh entry. Changes from v2: As David noticed, Exported the __pneigh_lookup() to ipv6 module. The checkpatch generates a warning on it, since the EXPORT_SYMBOL does not follow the symbol itself, but in this file all the exports come at the end, so I decided no to break this harmony. Changes from v1: Fixed comments from YOSHIFUJI - indentation of prototype in header and the pndisc_check_router() name - and a compilation fix, pointed by Daniel - the is_routed was (falsely) considered as uninitialized by gcc.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch tries to make dmesg logs between different runs easier to compare by * removing the jiffies (use CONFIG_PRINTK_TIME if you need timing) * remove the line numbers, they change with each applied patch It also changes the deprecated __FUNCTION__ to __func__ to make checkpatch.pl happy.
