xfrm6: release dev before returning error

2013-05-12T00:40:15+00:00

We forget to call dev_put() on error path in xfrm6_fill_dst(),
its caller doesn't handle this.

ipv6,gre: do not leak info to user-space

2013-05-12T00:40:14+00:00

There is a hole in struct ip6_tnl_parm2, so we have to
zero the struct on stack before copying it to user-space.

ipv6: do not clear pinet6 field

2013-05-11T23:26:38+00:00

We have seen multiple NULL dereferences in __inet6_lookup_established()

After analysis, I found that inet6_sk() could be NULL while the
check for sk_family == AF_INET6 was true.

Bug was added in linux-2.6.29 when RCU lookups were introduced in UDP
and TCP stacks.

Once an IPv6 socket, using SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU is inserted in a hash
table, we no longer can clear pinet6 field.

This patch extends logic used in commit fcbdf09d9652c891
("net: fix nulls list corruptions in sk_prot_alloc")

TCP/UDP/UDPLite IPv6 protocols provide their own .clear_sk() method
to make sure we do not clear pinet6 field.

At socket clone phase, we do not really care, as cloning the parent (non
NULL) pinet6 is not adding a fatal race.

Pull VFS updates from Al Viro,

Misc cleanups all over the place, mainly wrt /proc interfaces (switch
create_proc_entry to proc_create(), get rid of the deprecated
create_proc_read_entry() in favor of using proc_create_data() and
seq_file etc).

proc: Supply a function to remove a proc entry by PDE

2013-05-01T21:29:46+00:00

Supply a function (proc_remove()) to remove a proc entry (and any subtree
rooted there) by proc_dir_entry pointer rather than by name and (optionally)
root dir entry pointer.  This allows us to eliminate all remaining pde->name
accesses outside of procfs.

net: Add MIB counters for checksum errors

Add MIB counters for checksum errors in IP layer,
and TCP/UDP/ICMP layers, to help diagnose problems.

ipv6: Kill ipv6 dependency of icmpv6_send().

2013-04-29T17:54:36+00:00

Following patch adds icmp-registration module for ipv6.  It allows
ipv6 protocol to register icmp_sender which is used for sending
ipv6 icmp msgs.  This extra layer allows us to kill ipv6 dependency
for sending icmp packets.

This patch also fixes ip_tunnel compilation problem when ip_tunnel
is statically compiled in kernel but ipv6 is module

The e{uid,gid} --> {uid,gid} credentials fix conflicted with the
cleanup in net-next to now pass cred structs around.

The be2net driver had a bug fix in 'net' that overlapped with the VLAN
interface changes by Patrick McHardy in net-next.

An IGB conflict existed because in 'net' the build_skb() support was
reverted, and in 'net-next' there was a comment style fix within that
code.

Several batman-adv conflicts were resolved by making sure that all
calls to batadv_is_my_mac() are changed to have a new bat_priv first
argument.

Eric Dumazet's TS ECR fix in TCP in 'net' conflicted with the F-RTO
rewrite in 'net-next', mostly overlapping changes.

Thanks to Stephen Rothwell and Antonio Quartulli for help with several
of these merge resolutions.
