07555c9880 OMAP: enable smc911x support for LDP platform
The following patch enables SMC911x support to work on the OMAP LDP
board.  Although the SMC911x driver will eventually be obsoleted, the
smsc911x patches are rather invasive for the -rc kernels.

Rather than risk destablising smsc911x, this simpler patch is preferred
to allow the network interface to work.

3df2678737 sctp: fix kernel panic with ERROR chunk containing too many error causes
If ERROR chunk is received with too many error causes in ESTABLISHED
state, the kernel get panic.

This is because sctp limit the max length of cmds to 14, but while
ERROR chunk is received, one error cause will add around 2 cmds by
sctp_add_cmd_sf(). So many error causes will fill the limit of cmds
and panic.

This patch fixed the problem.

This bug can be test by SCTP Conformance Test Suite
<http://networktest.sourceforge.net/>.

a8c9a53c22 typhoon: repair firmware loading
The conversion to avoid using pci_alloc_consistent() broke the firmware
load process, as well as added an order-4 kmalloc and doubled the memory
usage of the firmware image. Go back to loading a page at a time.

Also, since the user can now give us utter garbage for firmware, do a
cursory validation so we don't try to load just anything.

2450cf51a1 Revert "menu: fix embedded menu snafu"
This reverts commit 155b25bcc2, which was
totally wrong - the "embedded" options still exists (very much so) even
on non-embedded platforms.

It's just that we don't bother with actually asking about them when
we're not embedded, we just take their default values (which is usually
'y' - the options add features that may not be worth it in a constrained
environment).

19147bb5f1 igb: remove skb_orphan calls
Remove skb_orphan call from igb driver as it can cause multiple issues due
to the fact that it is calling the desctructor and removing the skb from
the socket prior to transmission.

The call was added to improve performance but did so by allowing the skb to
be removed from the socket which gave the socket more window space to
transmit.  The performance gain is not worth the extra problems that this
kind of workaround can introduce as this could lead to a potential DoS if a
UDP stream decided to monopolize the transmit path.

fda714c29c drm: Avoid client deadlocks when the master disappears.
This is done by
1) Wake up lock waiters when we close the master file descriptor.
   Not when the master structure is removed, since the latter
   requires the waiters themselves to release the refcount on the
   master structure -> Deadlock.
2) Send a SIGTERM to all clients waiting for the lock.
   Normally these clients will get a SIGPIPE when the X server dies,
   but clients may also spin trying to grab the DRM lock, without
   getting any sort of notification.

5b1017404a x86-64: seccomp: fix 32/64 syscall hole
On x86-64, a 32-bit process (TIF_IA32) can switch to 64-bit mode with
ljmp, and then use the "syscall" instruction to make a 64-bit system
call.  A 64-bit process make a 32-bit system call with int $0x80.

In both these cases under CONFIG_SECCOMP=y, secure_computing() will use
the wrong system call number table.  The fix is simple: test TS_COMPAT
instead of TIF_IA32.  Here is an example exploit:

	/* test case for seccomp circumvention on x86-64

	   There are two failure modes: compile with -m64 or compile with -m32.

	   The -m64 case is the worst one, because it does "chmod 777 ." (could
	   be any chmod call).  The -m32 case demonstrates it was able to do
	   stat(), which can glean information but not harm anything directly.

	   A buggy kernel will let the test do something, print, and exit 1; a
	   fixed kernel will make it exit with SIGKILL before it does anything.

c747583d19 wimax/i2400m: implement RX reorder support
Allow the device to give the driver RX data with reorder information.

When that is done, the device will indicate the driver if a packet has
to be held in a (sorted) queue. It will also tell the driver when held
packets have to be released to the OS.

This is done to improve the WiMAX-protocol level retransmission
support when missing frames are detected.

The code docs provide details about the implementation.

In general, this just hooks into the RX path in rx.c; if a packet with
the reorder bit in the RX header is detected, the reorder information
in the header is extracted and one of the four main reorder operations
are executed. In one case (queue) no packet will be delivered to the
networking stack, just queued, whereas in the others (reset, update_ws
and queue_update_ws), queued packet might be delivered depending on
the window start for the specific queue.

The modifications to files other than rx.c are:

- control.c: during device initialization, enable reordering support
  if the rx_reorder_disabled module parameter is not enabled

- driver.c: expose a rx_reorder_disable module parameter and call
  i2400m_rx_setup/release() to initialize/shutdown RX reorder
  support.

- i2400m.h: introduce members in 'struct i2400m' needed for
  implementing reorder support.

- linux/i2400m.h: introduce TLVs, commands and constant definitions
  related to RX reorder

Last but not least, the rx reorder code includes an small circular log
where the last N reorder operations are recorded to be displayed in
case of inconsistency. Otherwise diagnosing issues would be almost
impossible.

fd5c565c0c wimax/i2400m: support extended data RX protocol (no need to reallocate skbs)
Newer i2400m firmwares (>= v1.4) extend the data RX protocol so that
each packet has a 16 byte header. This header is mainly used to
implement host reordeing (which is addressed in later commits).

However, this header also allows us to overwrite it (once data has
been extracted) with an Ethernet header and deliver to the networking
stack without having to reallocate the skb (as it happened in fw <=
v1.3) to make room for it.

- control.c: indicate the device [dev_initialize()] that the driver
  wants to use the extended data RX protocol. Also involves adding the
  definition of the needed data types in include/linux/wimax/i2400m.h.

- rx.c: handle the new payload type for the extended RX data
  protocol. Prepares the skb for delivery to
  netdev.c:i2400m_net_erx().

- netdev.c: Introduce i2400m_net_erx() that adds the fake ethernet
  address to a prepared skb and delivers it to the networking
  stack.

- cleanup: in most instances in rx.c, the variable 'single' was
  renamed to 'single_last' for it better conveys its meaning.

8987691a4a wimax/i2400m: allow control of the base-station idle mode timeout
For power saving reasons, WiMAX links can be put in idle mode while
connected after a certain time of the link not being used for tx or
rx. In this mode, the device pages the base-station regularly and when
data is ready to be transmitted, the link is revived.

This patch allows the user to control the time the device has to be
idle before it decides to go to idle mode from a sysfs
interace.

It also updates the initialization code to acknowledge the module
variable 'idle_mode_disabled' when the firmware is a newer version
(upcoming 1.4 vs 2.6.29's v1.3).

The method for setting the idle mode timeout in the older firmwares is
much more limited and can be only done at initialization time. Thus,
the sysfs file will return -ENOSYS on older ones.

6a0f7ab830 wimax/i2400m: firmware_check() encodes the firmware version in i2400m->fw_version
Upcoming modifications will need to test for the running firmware
version before activating a feature or not. This is helpful to
implement backward compatibility with older firmware versions.

Modify i2400m_firmware_check() to encode in i2400m->fw_version the
major and minor version numbers of the firmware interface.

As well, move the call to be done as the very first operation once we
have communication with the device during probe() [in
__i2400m_dev_start()]. This is needed so any operation that is
executed afterwards can determine which fw version it is talking to.

efa05d0f0a wimax/i2400m: drop support for deprecated major fw interface, add for new minor
Firmware interface version 8.x.x has long been deprecated and is no
longer supported (nor available, as it is a preproduction firmware),
so it can be safely dropped.

Add support for firmware interface v9.2.x (current is 9.1.x). Firmware
version 9.2.x is backwards compatible with 9.1.x; new features are
enabled if switches are pressed to turn them on. Forthcoming commits
to the driver will start pressing those switches when the firmware
interface supports it.

1039abbc5b wimax/i2400m: add the ability to fallback to other firmware files if the default is not there
In order to support backwards compatibility with older firmwares when
a driver is updated by a new kernel release, the i2400m bus drivers
can declare a list of firmware files they can work with (in general
these will be each a different version). The firmware loader will try
them in sequence until one loads.

Thus, if a user doesn't have the latest and greatest firmware that a
newly installed kernel would require, the driver would fall back to
the firmware from a previous release.

To support this, the i2400m->bus_fw_name is changed to be a NULL
terminated array firmware file names (and renamed to bus_fw_names) and
we add a new entry (i2400m->fw_name) that points to the name of the
firmware being currently used. All code that needs to print the
firmware file name uses i2400m->fw_name instead of the old
i2400m->bus_fw_name.

The code in i2400m_dev_bootstrap() that loads the firmware is changed
with an iterator over the firmware file name list that tries to load
each form user space, using the first one that succeeds in
request_firmware() (and thus stopping the iteration).

The USB and SDIO bus drivers are updated to take advantage of this and
reflect which firmwares they support.

86739fb96e dccp: Do not let initial option overhead shrink the MPS
This fixes a problem caused by the overlap of the connection-setup and
established-state phases of DCCP connections.

During connection setup, the client retransmits Confirm Feature-Negotiation
options until a response from the server signals that it can move from the
half-established PARTOPEN into the OPEN state, whereupon the connection is
fully established on both ends (RFC 4340, 8.1.5).

However, since the client may already send data while it is in the PARTOPEN
state, consequences arise for the Maximum Packet Size: the problem is that the
initial option overhead is much higher than for the subsequent established
phase, as it involves potentially many variable-length list-type options
(server-priority options, RFC 4340, 6.4).

Applying the standard MPS is insufficient here: especially with larger
payloads this can lead to annoying, counter-intuitive EMSGSIZE errors.

On the other hand, reducing the MPS available for the established phase by
the added initial overhead is highly wasteful and inefficient.

The solution chosen therefore is a two-phase strategy:

   If the payload length of the DataAck in PARTOPEN is too large, an Ack is sent
   to carry the options, and the feature-negotiation list is then flushed.

   This means that the server gets two Acks for one Response. If both Acks get
   lost, it is probably better to restart the connection anyway and devising yet
   another special-case does not seem worth the extra complexity.

The result is a higher utilisation of the available packet space for the data
transmission phase (established state) of a connection.

The patch (over-)estimates the initial overhead to be 32*4 bytes -- commonly
seen values were around 90 bytes for initial feature-negotiation options.

It uses sizeof(u32) to mean "aligned units of 4 bytes".
For consistency, another use of 4-byte alignment is adapted.

361a5c1dd0 dccp: Minimise header option overhead in setting the MPS
This patch resolves a long-standing FIXME to dynamically update the Maximum
Packet Size depending on actual options usage.

It uses the flags set by the feature-negotiation infrastructure to compute
the required header option size.

Most options are fixed-size, a notable exception are Ack Vectors (required
currently only by CCID-2). These can have any length between 3 and 1020
bytes. As a result of testing, 16 bytes (2 bytes for type/length plus 14 Ack
Vector cells) have been found to be sufficient for loss-free situations.

There are currently no CCID-specific header options which may appear on data
packets, thus it is not necessary to define a corresponding CCID field as
suggested in the old comment.

Further changes:
----------------
 Adjusted the type of 'cur_mps' to match the unsigned return type of the
 function.
