Pull networking updates from David Miller:
 "More bug fixes, nothing gets past these guys"

 1) More kernel info leaks found by Mathias Krause, this time in the
    IPSEC configuration layers.

 2) When IPSEC policies change, we do not properly make sure that cached
    routes (which could now be stale) throughout the system will be
    revalidated.  Fix this by generalizing the generation count
    invalidation scheme used by ipv4.  From Nicolas Dichtel.

 3) When repairing TCP sockets, we need to allow to restore not just the
    send window scale, but the receive one too.  Extend the existing
    interface to achieve this in a backwards compatible way.  From
    Andrey Vagin.

 4) A fix for FCOE scatter gather feature validation erroneously caused
    scatter gather to be disabled for things like AOE too.  From Ed L
    Cashin.

 5) Several cases of mishandling of error pointers, from Mathias Krause,
    Wei Yongjun, and Devendra Naga.

 6) Fix gianfar build, from Richard Cochran.

 7) CAP_NET_* failures should return -EPERM not -EACCES, from Zhao
    Hongjiang.

 8) Hardware reset fix in janz-ican3 CAN driver, from Ira W Snyder.

 9) Fix oops during rmmod in ti_hecc CAN driver, from Marc Kleine-Budde.

10) The removal of the conditional compilation of the clk support code
    in the stmmac driver broke things.  This is because the interfaces
    used are the ones that don't also perform the enable/disable of the
    clk.  Fix from Stefan Roese.

11) The QFQ packet scheduler can record out of range virtual start
    times, resulting later in misbehavior and even crashes.  Fix from
    Paolo Valente.

12) If MSG_WAITALL is used with IOAT DMA under TCP, we can wedge the
    receiver when the advertised receive window goes to zero.  Detect
    this case and force the processing of the IOAT DMA queue when it
    happens to avoid getting stuck.  Fix from Michal Kubecek.

13) batman-adv assumes that test_bit() returns only 0 or 1, but this is
    not true for x86 (which returns -1 or 0, via the 'sbb' instruction).
    Fix from Linus Lussing.

14) Fix small packet corruption in e1000, from Tushar Dave.

15) make_blackhole() in the IPSEC policy code can do one read unlock too
    many, fix from Li RongQing.

16) The new tcp_try_coalesce() code introduced a bug in TCP URG
    handling, fix from Eric Dumazet.

17) Fix memory leak in __netif_receive_skb() when doing zerocopy and
    when hit an OOM condition.  From Michael S Tsirkin.

18) netxen blindly deferences pdev->bus->self, which is not guarenteed
    to be non-NULL.  Fix from Nikolay Aleksandrov.

19) Fix a performance regression caused by mistakes in ipv6 checksum
    validation in the bnx2x driver, fix from Michal Schmidt.

xfrm_user: ensure user supplied esn replay window is valid

2012-09-20T22:08:40+00:00

The current code fails to ensure that the netlink message actually
contains as many bytes as the header indicates. If a user creates a new
state or updates an existing one but does not supply the bytes for the
whole ESN replay window, the kernel copies random heap bytes into the
replay bitmap, the ones happen to follow the XFRMA_REPLAY_ESN_VAL
netlink attribute. This leads to following issues:

1. The replay window has random bits set confusing the replay handling
   code later on.

2. A malicious user could use this flaw to leak up to ~3.5kB of heap
   memory when she has access to the XFRM netlink interface (requires
   CAP_NET_ADMIN).

Known users of the ESN replay window are strongSwan and Steffen's
iproute2 patch (). The latter
uses the interface with a bitmap supplied while the former does not.
strongSwan is therefore prone to run into issue 1.

To fix both issues without breaking existing userland allow using the
XFRMA_REPLAY_ESN_VAL netlink attribute with either an empty bitmap or a
fully specified one. For the former case we initialize the in-kernel
bitmap with zero, for the latter we copy the user supplied bitmap. For
state updates the full bitmap must be supplied.

To prevent overflows in the bitmap length calculation the maximum size
of bmp_len is limited to 128 by this patch -- resulting in a maximum
replay window of 4096 packets. This should be sufficient for all real
life scenarios (RFC 4303 recommends a default replay window size of 64).

tracing: Don't call page_to_pfn() if page is NULL

2012-09-20T19:51:16+00:00

When allocating memory fails, page is NULL. page_to_pfn() will
cause the kernel panicked if we don't use sparsemem vmemmap.

linux/kernel.h: Fix warning seen with W=1 due to change in DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST

2012-09-19T13:51:25+00:00

After commit b6d86d3d (Fix DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST to support negative dividends),
the following warning is seen if the kernel is compiled with W=1 (-Wextra):

warning: comparison of unsigned expression >= 0 is always true

The warning is due to the test '((typeof(x))-1) >= 0', which is used to detect
if the variable type is unsigned. Research on the web suggests that the warning
disappears if '>' instead of '>=' is used for the comparison.

Tests after changing the macro along that line show that the warning is gone,
and that the result is still correct:

i=-4: DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST(i, 2)=-2
i=-3: DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST(i, 2)=-2
i=-2: DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST(i, 2)=-1
i=-1: DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST(i, 2)=-1
i=0: DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST(i, 2)=0
i=1: DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST(i, 2)=1
i=2: DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST(i, 2)=1
i=3: DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST(i, 2)=2
i=4: DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST(i, 2)=2

Code size is the same as before.

ipv6: use net->rt_genid to check dst validity

2012-09-18T19:57:03+00:00

IPv6 dst should take care of rt_genid too. When a xfrm policy is inserted or
deleted, all dst should be invalidated.
To force the validation, dst entries should be created with ->obsolete set to
DST_OBSOLETE_FORCE_CHK. This was already the case for all functions calling
ip6_dst_alloc(), except for ip6_rt_copy().

As a consequence, we can remove the specific code in inet6_connection_sock.
