Now that netdev has its own stats structure we should use that

008440e3ad ipv4: Fix fib_trie rebalancing, part 3
Alas current delaying of freeing old tnodes by RCU in trie_rebalance
is still not enough because we can free a top tnode before updating a
t->trie pointer.

01e5329814 bnx2x: Fix the behavior of ethtool when ONBOOT=no
This is the same fix as commit
7959ea254e ("bnx2: Fix the behavior of
ethtool when ONBOOT=no"), but for bnx2x:

--------------------
    When configure in ifcfg-eth* is ONBOOT=no,
    the behavior of ethtool command is wrong.
    
        # grep ONBOOT /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth2
        ONBOOT=no
        # ethtool eth2 | tail -n1
                Link detected: yes
    
    I think "Link detected" should be "no".

6828b92bd2 tcp: Do not tack on TSO data to non-TSO packet
If a socket starts out on a non-TSO route, and then switches to
a TSO route, then we will tack on data to the tail of the tx queue
even if it started out life as non-TSO.  This is suboptimal because
all of it will then be copied and checksummed unnecessarily.

This patch fixes this by ensuring that skb->ip_summed is set to
CHECKSUM_PARTIAL before appending extra data beyond the MSS.

8e5b9dda99 tcp: Stop non-TSO packets morphing into TSO
If a socket starts out on a non-TSO route, and then switches to

This patch fixes this by ensuring that skb->ip_summed is set to

a3a9f79e36 netfilter: tcp conntrack: fix unacknowledged data detection with NAT
When NAT helpers change the TCP packet size, the highest seen sequence
number needs to be corrected. This is currently only done upwards, when
the packet size is reduced the sequence number is unchanged. This causes
TCP conntrack to falsely detect unacknowledged data and decrease the
timeout.

Fix by updating the highest seen sequence number in both directions after
packet mangling.

bd46cb6cf1 be2net: Fix to avoid a crash seen on PPC with LRO and Jumbo frames.
While testing the driver on PPC, we ran into a crash with LRO, Jumbo frames.
With CONFIG_PPC_64K_PAGES configured (a default in PPC), MAX_SKB_FRAGS drops to 3 and we were crossing the array limits on skb_shinfo(skb)->frags[].
Now we coalesce the frags from the same physical page into one slot in
skb_shinfo(skb)->frags[] and go to the next index when the frag is from

different physical page.

This patch is against the net-2.6 tree.

ff780cd8f2 gro: Flush GRO packets in napi_disable_pending path
When NAPI is disabled while we're in net_rx_action, we end up
calling __napi_complete without flushing GRO packets.  This is
a bug as it would cause the GRO packets to linger, of course it
also literally BUGs to catch error like this :)

This patch changes it to napi_complete, with the obligatory IRQ
reenabling.  This should be safe because we've only just disabled
IRQs and it does not materially affect the test conditions in
between.

308ff823eb nf_conntrack: Use rcu_barrier()
RCU barriers, rcu_barrier(), is inserted two places.

 In nf_conntrack_expect.c nf_conntrack_expect_fini() before the
 kmem_cache_destroy().  Firstly to make sure the callback to the
 nf_ct_expect_free_rcu() code is still around.  Secondly because I'm
 unsure about the consequence of having in flight
 nf_ct_expect_free_rcu/kmem_cache_free() calls while doing a
 kmem_cache_destroy() slab destroy.

 And in nf_conntrack_extend.c nf_ct_extend_unregister(), inorder to
 wait for completion of callbacks to __nf_ct_ext_free_rcu(), which is
 invoked by __nf_ct_ext_add().  It might be more efficient to call
 rcu_barrier() in nf_conntrack_core.c nf_conntrack_cleanup_net(), but
 thats make it more difficult to read the code (as the callback code
 in located in nf_conntrack_extend.c).

This change had two problems:

1) Since it frees the stats in the drivers' close method, we
   can OOPS in the transmit routine.

2) stats are no longer remembered across ifdown/ifup which
   disagrees with how every other device operates.

3a6a6c16be audit: inode watches depend on CONFIG_AUDIT not CONFIG_AUDIT_SYSCALL
Even though one cannot make use of the audit watch code without
CONFIG_AUDIT_SYSCALL the spaghetti nature of the audit code means that
the audit rule filtering requires that it at least be compiled.

Thus build the audit_watch code when we build auditfilter like it was
before cfcad62c74

Clearly this is a point of potential future cleanup..

d0725992c8 futex: Fix the write access fault problem for real
commit 64d1304a64 (futex: setup writeable mapping for futex ops which
modify user space data) did address only half of the problem of write
access faults.

The patch was made on two wrong assumptions:

1) access_ok(VERIFY_WRITE,...) would actually check write access.

   On x86 it does _NOT_. It's a pure address range check.

2) a RW mapped region can not go away under us.

   That's wrong as well. Nobody can prevent another thread to call
   mprotect(PROT_READ) on that region where the futex resides. If that
   call hits between the get_user_pages_fast() verification and the
   actual write access in the atomic region we are toast again.

The solution is to not rely on access_ok and get_user() for any write
access related fault on private and shared futexes. Instead we need to
fault it in with verification of write access.

There is no generic non destructive write mechanism which would fault
the user page in trough a #PF, but as we already know that we will
fault we can as well call get_user_pages() directly and avoid the #PF
overhead.

If get_user_pages() returns -EFAULT we know that we can not fix it
anymore and need to bail out to user space.

Remove a bunch of confusing comments on this issue as well.

ba52270d18 SLUB: Don't pass __GFP_FAIL for the initial allocation
SLUB uses higher order allocations by default but falls back to small
orders under memory pressure. Make sure the GFP mask used in the initial
allocation doesn't include __GFP_NOFAIL.

4923abf9f1 Don't warn about order-1 allocations with __GFP_NOFAIL
Traditionally, we never failed small orders (even regardless of any
__GFP_NOFAIL flags), and slab will allocate order-1 allocations even for
small allocations that could fit in a single page (in order to avoid
excessive fragmentation).

Maybe we should remove this warning entirely, but before making that
judgement, at least limit it to bigger allocations.
