TIPC accept() call grabs the socket lock on a newly allocated
socket while holding the socket lock on an old socket. But lockdep
worries that this might be a recursive lock attempt:
[ INFO: possible recursive locking detected ]
---------------------------------------------
kworker/u:0/6 is trying to acquire lock:
(sk_lock-AF_TIPC){+.+.+.}, at: [<c8c1226c>] accept+0x15c/0x310 [tipc]
but task is already holding lock:
(sk_lock-AF_TIPC){+.+.+.}, at: [<c8c12138>] accept+0x28/0x310 [tipc]
other info that might help us debug this:
Possible unsafe locking scenario:
CPU0
----
lock(sk_lock-AF_TIPC);
lock(sk_lock-AF_TIPC);
*** DEADLOCK ***
May be due to missing lock nesting notation
[...]
Tell lockdep that this locking is safe by using lock_sock_nested().
This is similar to what was done in commit 5131a184a3458d9 for
SCTP code ("SCTP: lock_sock_nested in sctp_sock_migrate").
Also note that this is isn't something that is seen normally,
as it was uncovered with some experimental work-in-progress
code not yet ready for mainline. So no need for stable
backports or similar of this commit.

TIPC has so far only supported blocking connect(), meaning that a call
to connect() doesn't return until either the connection is fully
established, or an error occurs. This has proved insufficient for many
users, so we now introduce non-blocking connect(), analogous to how
this is done in TCP and other protocols.
With this feature, if a connection cannot be established instantly,
connect() will return the error code "-EINPROGRESS".
If the user later calls connect() again, he will either have the
return code "-EALREADY" or "-EISCONN", depending on whether the
connection has been established or not.
The user must have explicitly set the socket to be non-blocking
(SOCK_NONBLOCK or O_NONBLOCK, depending on method used), so unless
for some reason they had set this already (the socket would anyway
remain blocking in current TIPC) this change should be completely
backwards compatible.
It is also now possible to call select() or poll() to wait for the
completion of a connection.
An effect of the above is that the actual completion of a connection
may now be performed asynchronously, independent of the calls from
user space. Therefore, we now execute this code in BH context, in
the function filter_rcv(), which is executed upon reception of
messages in the socket.

Signed-off-by: Paul Gortmaker <paul.gortmaker@windriver.com>

Handling of connection-related message reception is currently scattered
around at different places in the code. This makes it harder to verify
that things are handled correctly in all possible scenarios.
So we consolidate the existing processing of connection-oriented
message reception in a single routine. In the process, we convert the
chain of if/else into a switch/case for improved readability.
A cast on the socket_state in the switch is needed to avoid compile
warnings on 32 bit, like "net/tipc/socket.c:1252:2: warning: case value
‘4294967295’ not in enumerated type". This happens because existing
tipc code pseudo extends the default linux socket state values with:
#define SS_LISTENING -1 /* socket is listening */
#define SS_READY -2 /* socket is connectionless */
It may make sense to add these as _positive_ values to the existing
socket state enum list someday, vs. these already existing defines.

Currently we have tipc_disconnect and tipc_disconnect_port. It is
not clear from the names alone, what they do or how they differ.
It turns out that tipc_disconnect just deals with the port locking
and then calls tipc_disconnect_port which does all the work.
If we rename as follows: tipc_disconnect_port --> __tipc_disconnect
then we will be following typical linux convention, where:
__tipc_disconnect: "raw" function that does all the work.
tipc_disconnect: wrapper that deals with locking and then calls
the real core __tipc_disconnect function
With this, the difference is immediately evident, and locking
violations are more apt to be spotted by chance while working on,
or even just while reading the code.
On the connect side of things, we currently only have the single
"tipc_connect2port" function. It does both the locking at enter/exit,
and the core of the work. Pending changes will make it desireable to
have the connect be a two part locking wrapper + worker function,
just like the disconnect is already.
Here, we make the connect look just like the updated disconnect case,
for the above reason, and for consistency. In the process, we also
get rid of the "2port" suffix that was on the original name, since
it adds no descriptive value.
On close examination, one might notice that the above connect
changes implicitly move the call to tipc_link_get_max_pkt() to be
within the scope of tipc_port_lock() protected region; when it was
not previously. We don't see any issues with this, and it is in
keeping with __tipc_connect doing the work and tipc_connect just
handling the locking.

commit 2e71a6f8084e (net: gro: selective flush of packets) added
a bug for skbs using frag_list. This part of the GRO stack is rarely
used, as it needs skb not using a page fragment for their skb->head.
Most drivers do use a page fragment, but some of them use GFP_KERNEL
allocations for the initial fill of their RX ring buffer.
napi_gro_flush() overwrite skb->prev that was used for these skb to
point to the last skb in frag_list.
Fix this using a separate field in struct napi_gro_cb to point to the
last fragment.

If SYN-ACK partially acks SYN-data, the client retransmits the
remaining data by tcp_retransmit_skb(). This increments lost recovery
state variables like tp->retrans_out in Open state. If loss recovery
happens before the retransmission is acked, it triggers the WARN_ON
check in tcp_fastretrans_alert(). For example: the client sends
SYN-data, gets SYN-ACK acking only ISN, retransmits data, sends
another 4 data packets and get 3 dupacks.
Since the retransmission is not caused by network drop it should not
update the recovery state variables. Further the server may return a
smaller MSS than the cached MSS used for SYN-data, so the retranmission
needs a loop. Otherwise some data will not be retransmitted until timeout
or other loss recovery events.

As a complement to the per-socket sk_recv_queue limit, TIPC keeps a
global atomic counter for the sum of sk_recv_queue sizes across all
tipc sockets. When incremented, the counter is compared to an upper
threshold value, and if this is reached, the message is rejected
with error code TIPC_OVERLOAD.
This check was originally meant to protect the node against
buffer exhaustion and general CPU overload. However, all experience
indicates that the feature not only is redundant on Linux, but even
harmful. Users run into the limit very often, causing disturbances
for their applications, while removing it seems to have no negative
effects at all. We have also seen that overall performance is
boosted significantly when this bottleneck is removed.
Furthermore, we don't see any other network protocols maintaining
such a mechanism, something strengthening our conviction that this
control can be eliminated.
As a result, the atomic variable tipc_queue_size is now unused
and so it can be deleted. There is a getsockopt call that used
to allow reading it; we retain that but just return zero for
maximum compatibility.

John W. Linville says:
====================
This pull request is intended for 3.8...
This includes a Bluetooth pull. Gustavo says:
"A few more patches to 3.8, I hope they can still make it to mainline!
The most important ones are the socket option for the SCO protocol to allow
accept/refuse new connections from userspace. Other than that I added some
fixes and Andrei did more AMP work."
Also, a mac80211 pull. Johannes says:
"If you think there's any chance this might make it still, please pull my
mac80211-next tree (per below). This contains a relatively large number
of fixes to the previous code, as well as a few small features:
* VHT association in mac80211
* some new debugfs files
* P2P GO powersave configuration
* masked MAC address verification
The biggest patch is probably the BSS struct changes to use RCU for
their IE buffers to fix potential races. I've not tagged this for stable
because it's pretty invasive and nobody has ever seen any bugs in this
area as far as I know."
Several other drivers get some attention, including ath9k, brcmfmac,
brcmsmac, and a number of others. Also, Hauke gives us a series that
improves watchdog support for the bcma and ssb busses. Finally, Bill
Pemberton delivers a group of "remove __dev* attributes" for wireless
drivers -- these generate some "section mismatch" warnings, but Greg
K-H assures me that they will disappear by the time -rc1 is released.
This also includes a pull of the wireless tree to avoid merge
conflicts.

This patch against kernel 3.7.0-rc8 fixes a kernel oops when turning on the
bluetooth mouse with id 0458:0058 [1].
The mouse in question supports both input and hid sessions, however it is
blacklisted in drivers/hid/hid-core.c so the input session is one that should
be used. Long ago (around kernel 3.0.0) some changes in the bluetooth
subsystem made the kernel do not fallback to input session when hid session is
not supported or blacklisted. This patch restore that behaviour by making the
kernel try the input session if hid_add_device returns ENODEV.
The patch exports hid_ignore() from hid-core.c so that it can be used in the
bluetooth subsystem.

Each link instance has a periodic job checking if there is a stale
ongoing message reassembly associated to the link. If no new
fragment has been received during the last 4*[link_tolerance] period,
it is assumed the missing fragment will never arrive. As a consequence,
the reassembly buffer is discarded, and a gap in the message sequence
occurs.
This assumption is wrong. After we abandoned our ambition to develop
packet routing for multi-cluster networks, only single-hop packet
transfer remains as an option. For those, all packets are guaranteed
to be delivered in sequence to the defragmentation layer. Any failure
to achieve sequenced delivery will eventually lead to link reset, and
the reassembly buffer will be flushed anyway.
So we just remove this periodic check, which is now obsolete.

If the sdata work is pending while the interface is stopped,
we currently flush it. If it's not running this means waiting
for it to run, which could take a while if the workqueue is
backlogged. However, the work exits right away if it starts
to run while the interface is already stopping. There's no
point in waiting for that, so use cancel_work_sync() instead.

Previously, mesh peering frames from a STA without a station
entry were being dropped.
Mesh Peering Open and other frames (WLAN_CATEGORY_SELF_PROTECTED)
are valid mesh peering frames even if received from a yet unknown
station; the STA entry will be created in mesh_peer_init later.
The problem didn't occur previously since both STAs receive each
other's beacons which created the STA entry. However, this causes
an unnecessary delay and beacons might not be received if either
node is in PS mode.

But user/administrator don't know this is caused by int type overflow.
what's more, it is meaningless and even dangerous that unres_qlen_bytes is set

When a new nic is created in namespace ns1, the kernel sends a KOBJ_ADD uevent
to ns1. When the nic is moved to ns2, we only send a KOBJ_MOVE to ns2, and
nothing to ns1.
This patch changes that behavior so that when moving a nic from ns1 to ns2, we
send a KOBJ_REMOVED to ns1 and KOBJ_ADD to ns2. (The KOBJ_MOVE is still
sent to ns2).
The effects of this can be seen when starting and stopping containers in
an upstart based host. Lxc will create a pair of veth nics, the kernel
sends KOBJ_ADD, and upstart starts network-instance jobs for each. When
one nic is moved to the container, because no KOBJ_REMOVED event is
received, the network-instance job for that veth never goes away. This
was reported at https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lxc/+bug/1065589
With this patch the networ-instance jobs properly go away.
The other oddness solved here is that if a nic is passed into a running
upstart-based container, without this patch no network-instance job is
started in the container. But when the container creates a new nic
itself (ip link add new type veth) then network-interface jobs are
created. With this patch, behavior comes in line with a regular host.
v2: also send KOBJ_ADD to new netns. There will then be a
_MOVE event from the device_rename() call, but that should
be innocuous.

/proc/net/ip[6]_mr_cache allows to get all mfc entries, even if they are put in
the unresolved list (mfc[6]_unres_queue). But only the table RT_TABLE_DEFAULT is
displayed.
This patch adds the parsing of the unresolved list when the dump is made via
rtnetlink, hence each table can be checked.
In IPv6, we set rtm_type in ip6mr_fill_mroute(), because in case of unresolved
mfc __ip6mr_fill_mroute() will not set it. In IPv4, it is already done.

A mfc entry can be static or not (added via the mroute_sk socket). The patch
reports MFC_STATIC flag into rtm_protocol by setting rtm_protocol to
RTPROT_STATIC or RTPROT_MROUTED.

These statistics can be checked only via /proc/net/ip_mr_cache or
SIOCGETSGCNT[_IN6] and thus only for the table RT_TABLE_DEFAULT.
Advertising them via rtnetlink allows to get statistics for all cache entries,
whatever the table is.

Pablo Neira Ayuso says:
====================
* Remove limitation in the maximum number of supported sets in ipset.
Now ipset automagically increments the number of slots in the array
of sets by 64 new spare slots, from Jozsef Kadlecsik.
* Partially remove the generic queue infrastructure now that ip_queue
is gone. Its only client is nfnetlink_queue now, from Florian
Westphal.
* Add missing attribute policy checkings in ctnetlink, from Florian
Westphal.
* Automagically kill conntrack entries that use the wrong output
interface for the masquerading case in case of routing changes,
from Jozsef Kadlecsik.
* Two patches two improve ct object traceability. Now ct objects are
always placed in any of the existing lists. This allows us to dump
the content of unconfirmed and dying conntracks via ctnetlink as
a way to provide more instrumentation in case you suspect leaks,
from myself.

In 5GHz/802.11a, we are allowed to use short slot times. Doing this
may increases performance by 20% for legacy connections (54 MBit/s).
I can confirm this in my tests (27% more throughput using iperf), and
also have a small positive effect (5% more throughput) for HT rates,
tested on 1 stream.

I believe this commit from 2008 was incorrect:
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git;a=commitdiff;h=398bcbebb6f721ac308df1e3d658c0029bb74503
When CONFIG_IPV6_ROUTER_PREF is disabled, the kernel should follow
RFC4861 section 6.3.6: if no route is NUD_VALID, then traffic should be
sprayed across all routers (indirectly triggering NUD) until one of them
becomes NUD_VALID.
However, the following experiment demonstrates that this does not work:
1) Connect to an IPv6 network.
2) Change the router's MAC (and link-local) address.
The kernel will lock onto the first router and never try the new one, even
if the first becomes unreachable. This patch fixes the problem by
allowing rt6_check_neigh() to return 0; if all routers return 0, then
rt6_select() will fall back to round-robin behavior.
This patch should have no effect when CONFIG_IPV6_ROUTER_PREF=y.
Note that rt6_check_neigh() is only used in a boolean context, so I've
changed its return type accordingly.

if Router Advertisements are accepted
As of 026359b [ipv6: Send ICMPv6 RSes only when RAs are accepted],
Router Solicitations are sent whenever kernel accepts Router
Advertisements on the interface.
However, this logic isn't reflected in 'addrconf_rs_timer'.
The timer fails to issue subsequent RS messages (and fails to re-arm
itself) if forwarding is enabled and the special hybrid mode is
enabled (accept_ra=2).
Fix the condition determining whether next RS should be sent, by using
'ipv6_accept_ra()'.
