<title>ipv4: do not cache looped multicasts</title>

<id>636174219b52b5a8bc51bc23bbcba97cd30a65e3</id>
<content type='text'>
	Starting from 3.6 we cache output routes for
multicasts only when using route to 224/4. For local receivers
we can set RTCF_LOCAL flag depending on the membership but
in such case we use maddr and saddr which are not caching
keys as before. Additionally, we can not use same place to
cache routes that differ in RTCF_LOCAL flag value.

	Fix it by caching only RTCF_MULTICAST entries
without RTCF_LOCAL (send-only, no loopback). As a side effect,
we avoid unneeded lookup for fnhe when not caching because
multicasts are not redirected and they do not learn PMTU.

	Thanks to Maxime Bizon for showing the caching
problems in __mkroute_output for 3.6 kernels: different
RTCF_LOCAL flag in cache can lead to wrong ip_mc_output or
ip_output call and the visible problem is that traffic can
not reach local receivers via loopback.

====================
The following patchset contains two Netfilter fixes:

* Fix buffer overflow in the name of the timeout policy object
  in the cttimeout infrastructure, from Florian Westphal.

* Fix a bug in the hash set in case that IP ranges are
  specified, from Jozsef Kadlecsik.

Chen Gang reports:
the length of nla_data(cda[CTA_TIMEOUT_NAME]) is not limited in server side.

And indeed, its used to strcpy to a fixed-sized buffer.

Fortunately, nfnetlink users need CAP_NET_ADMIN.

Due to the missing ininitalization at adding/deleting entries, when
a plain_ip,port,net element was the object, multiple elements were
added/deleted instead. The bug came from the missing dangling
default initialization.

The error-prone default initialization is corrected in all hash:* types.

John W. Linville says:

====================
This is a batch of fixes intended for 3.7...

Included are two pulls.  Regarding the mac80211 tree, Johannes says:

"Please pull my mac80211.git tree (see below) to get two more fixes for
3.7. Both fix regressions introduced *before* this cycle that weren't
noticed until now, one for IBSS not cleaning up properly and the other
to add back the "wireless" sysfs directory for Fedora's startup scripts."

Regarding the iwlwifi tree, Johannes says:

"Please also pull my iwlwifi.git tree, I have two fixes: one to remove a
spurious warning that can actually trigger in legitimate situations, and
the other to fix a regression from when monitor mode was changed to use
the "sniffer" firmware mode."

Also included is an nfc tree pull.  Samuel says:

"We mostly have pn533 fixes here, 2 memory leaks and an early unlocking fix.
Moreover, we also have an LLCP adapter linked list insertion fix."

On top of that, a few more bits...  Albert Pool adds a USB ID
to rtlwifi.  Bing Zhao provides two mwifiex fixes -- one to fix
a system hang during a command timeout, and the other to properly
report a suspend error to the MMC core.  Finally, Sujith Manoharan
fixes a thinko that would trigger an ath9k hang during device reset.

commit 35b2a113cb0298d4f9a1263338b456094a414057 broke (at least)
Fedora's networking scripts, they check for the existence of the
wireless directory. As the files aren't used, add the directory
back and not the files. Also do it for both drivers based on the
old wireless extensions and cfg80211, regardless of whether the
compat code for wext is built into cfg80211 or not.
