tg3: Allow screaming interrupt detection
The tg3 driver's ISR is coded to accept interrupts as its own if the
status block tag does not equal the last tag the driver has seen. The
last_tag field is updated from tg3_poll. In a screaming interrupt
situation from another device sharing tg3's IRQ, tg3_poll does not get
a chance to be called, so the last_tag will always be out of sync with
the status block tag. Consequently, the driver will continually
declare the screaming interrupts as its own, thus thwarting the
screaming interrupt detection logic.
This patch solves the problem by creating a new last_irq_tag member and
recording the status block tag in the ISR. The ISR then checks the
last_irq_tag for interrupt ownership.

tun: Fix sk_sleep races when attaching/detaching
As the sk_sleep wait queue actually lives in tfile, which may be
detached from the tun device, bad things will happen when we use
sk_sleep after detaching.
Since the tun device is the persistent data structure here (when
requested by the user), it makes much more sense to have the wait
queue live there. There is no reason to have it in tfile at all
since the only time we can wait is if we have a tun attached.
In fact we already have a wait queue in tun_struct, so we might
as well use it.

tun: Only free a netdev when all tun descriptors are closed
The commit
c70f182940f988448f3c12a209d18b1edc276e33 ("tun: Fix
races between tun_net_close and free_netdev") fixed a race where
an asynchronous deletion of a tun device can hose a poll(2) on
a tun fd attached to that device.
However, this came at the cost of moving the tun wait queue into
the tun file data structure. The problem with this is that it
imposes restrictions on when and where the tun device can access
the wait queue since the tun file may change at any time due to
detaching and reattaching.
In particular, now that we need to use the wait queue on the
receive path it becomes difficult to properly synchronise this
with the detachment of the tun device.
This patch solves the original race in a different way. Since
the race is only because the underlying memory gets freed, we
can prevent it simply by ensuring that we don't do that until
all tun descriptors ever attached to the device (even if they
have since be detached because they may still be sitting in poll)
have been closed.
This is done by using reference counting the attached tun file
descriptors. The refcount in tun->sk has been reappropriated
for this purpose since it was already being used for that, albeit
from the opposite angle.
Note that we no longer zero tfile->tun since tun_get will return
NULL anyway after the refcount on tfile hits zero. Instead it
represents whether this device has ever been attached to a device.

net: sch_netem: Fix an inconsistency in ingress netem timestamps.
Alex Sidorenko reported:
"while experimenting with 'netem' we have found some strange behaviour. It
seemed that ingress delay as measured by 'ping' command shows up on some
hosts but not on others.
After some investigation I have found that the problem is that skbuff->tstamp
field value depends on whether there are any packet sniffers enabled. That
is:
- if any ptype_all handler is registered, the tstamp field is as expected
- if there are no ptype_all handlers, the tstamp field does not show the delay"
This patch prevents unnecessary update of tstamp in dev_queue_xmit_nit()
on ingress path (with act_mirred) adding a check, so minimal overhead on
the fast path, but only when sniffers etc. are active.
Since netem at ingress seems to logically emulate a network before a host,
tstamp is zeroed to trigger the update and pretend delays are from the
outside.

Synchronous Connection has been used. Only the remote side is allowed
to use Connect Complete to indicate the missing support for eSCO in

Using the scan_sdata variable here is terribly wrong,

netfilter: nfnetlink: return ENOMEM if we fail to create netlink socket
With this patch, nfnetlink returns -ENOMEM instead of -EPERM if we
fail to create the nfnetlink netlink socket during the module
loading. This is exactly what rtnetlink does in this case.
Ideally, it would be better if we propagate the error that has
happened in netlink_kernel_create(), however, this function still
does not implement this yet.

[PATCH] net: remove superfluous call to synchronize_net()
inet_register_protosw() function is responsible for adding a new
inet protocol into a global table (inetsw[]) that is used with RCU rules.
As soon as the store of the pointer is done, other cpus might see
this new protocol in inetsw[], so we have to make sure new protocol
is ready for use. All pending memory updates should thus be committed
to memory before setting the pointer.
This is correctly done using rcu_assign_pointer()
synchronize_net() is typically used at unregister time, after
unsetting the pointer, to make sure no other cpu is still using
the object we want to dismantle. Using it at register time
is only adding an artificial delay that could hide a real bug,
and this bug could popup if/when synchronize_rcu() can proceed
faster than now.
This saves about 13 ms on boot time on a HZ=1000 8 cpus machine ;)
(4 calls to inet_register_protosw(), and about 3200 us per call)

gro: Fix use after free in tcp_gro_receive
After calling skb_gro_receive skb->len can no longer be relied
on since if the skb was merged using frags, then its pages will
have been removed and the length reduced.
This caused tcp_gro_receive to prematurely end merging which
resulted in suboptimal performance with ixgbe.
The fix is to store skb->len on the stack.

can: Network Drop Monitor: Make use of consume_skb() in af_can.c
Since commit
ead2ceb0ec9f85cff19c43b5cdb2f8a054484431 ("Network Drop
Monitor: Adding kfree_skb_clean for non-drops and modifying
end-of-line points for skbs") so called end-of-line points for skb's
should use consume_skb() to free the socket buffer.
In opposite to consume_skb() the function kfree_skb() is intended to
be used for unexpected skb drops e.g. in error conditions that now can
trigger the network drop monitor if enabled.
This patch moves the skb end-of-line point in af_can.c to use
consume_skb().

macb: process the RX ring regardless of interrupt status
Suppose that we receive lots of frames, start processing them, but
exhaust our budget so that we return before we had a chance to look
at all of them.
Then, when the network layer calls us again, we will only continue
processing the buffers if the REC bit was set in the mean time, which it
might not be if there was a brief pause in the flow of packets. If this
happens, we'll simply display a warning and call netif_rx_complete()
with potentially lots of unprocessed packets in the RX ring...
Fix this by scanning the ring no matter what flags are set in the
interrupt status register.
