This fixes scatterlist corruptions added by
commit 68e3f5dd4db62619fdbe520d36c9ebf62e672256
[CRYPTO] users: Fix up scatterlist conversion errors
The issue is that the code calls sg_mark_end() which clobbers the
sg_page() pointer of the final scatterlist entry.
The first part fo the fix makes skb_to_sgvec() do __sg_mark_end().
After considering all skb_to_sgvec() call sites the most correct
solution is to call __sg_mark_end() in skb_to_sgvec() since that is
what all of the callers would end up doing anyways.
I suspect this might have fixed some problems in virtio_net which is
the sole non-crypto user of skb_to_sgvec().
Other similar sg_mark_end() cases were converted over to
__sg_mark_end() as well.
Arguably sg_mark_end() is a poorly named function because it doesn't
just "mark", it clears out the page pointer as a side effect, which is
what led to these bugs in the first place.
The one remaining plain sg_mark_end() call is in scsi_alloc_sgtable()
and arguably it could be converted to __sg_mark_end() if only so that
we can delete this confusing interface from linux/scatterlist.h

When a network namespace reference is held by a network subsystem,
and when this reference is decremented in a rcu update callback, we
must ensure that there is no more outstanding rcu update before
trying to free the network namespace.
In the normal case, the rcu_barrier is called when the network namespace
is exiting in the cleanup_net function.
But when a network namespace creation fails, and the subsystems are
undone (like the cleanup), the rcu_barrier is missing.
This patch adds the missing rcu_barrier.

Point 1:
The unregistering of a network device schedule a netdev_run_todo.
This function calls dev->destructor when it is set and the
destructor calls free_netdev.
Point 2:
In the case of an initialization of a network device the usual code
is:
* alloc_netdev
* register_netdev
-> if this one fails, call free_netdev and exit with error.
Point 3:
In the register_netdevice function at the later state, when the device
is at the registered state, a call to the netdevice_notifiers is made.
If one of the notification falls into an error, a rollback to the
registered state is done using unregister_netdevice.
Conclusion:
When a network device fails to register during initialization because
one network subsystem returned an error during a notification call
chain, the network device is freed twice because of fact 1 and fact 2.
The second free_netdev will be done with an invalid pointer.
Proposed solution:
The following patch move all the code of unregister_netdevice *except*
the call to net_set_todo, to a new function "rollback_registered".
The following functions are changed in this way:
* register_netdevice: calls rollback_registered when a notification fails
* unregister_netdevice: calls rollback_register + net_set_todo, the call
order to net_set_todo is changed because it is the
latest now. Since it justs add an element to a list
that should not break anything.

Commit commit 65b8291c4000e5f38fc94fb2ca0cb7e8683c8a1b ("dio: invalidate
clean pages before dio write") introduced a bug which stopped dio from
ever invalidating the page cache after writes. It still invalidated it
before writes so most users were fine.
Karl Schendel reported ( http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/10/26/481 ) hitting
this bug when he had a buffered reader immediately reading file data
after an O_DIRECT wirter had written the data. The kernel issued
read-ahead beyond the position of the reader which overlapped with the
O_DIRECT writer. The failure to invalidate after writes caused the
reader to see stale data from the read-ahead.
The following patch is originally from Karl. The following commentary
is his:
The below 3rd try takes on your suggestion of just invalidating
no matter what the retval from the direct_IO call. I ran it
thru the test-case several times and it has worked every time.
The post-invalidate is probably still too early for async-directio,
but I don't have a testcase for that; just sync. And, this
won't be any worse in the async case.
I added a test to the aio-dio-regress repository which mimics Karl's IO
pattern. It verifed the bad behaviour and that the patch fixed it. I
agree with Karl, this still doesn't help the case where a buffered
reader follows an AIO O_DIRECT writer. That will require a bit more
work.
This gives up on the idea of returning EIO to indicate to userspace that
stale data remains if the invalidation failed.

It's currently possible to send posix_locks_deadlock() into an infinite
loop (under the BKL).
For now, fix this just by bailing out after a few iterations. We may
want to fix this in a way that better clarifies the semantics of
deadlock detection. But that will take more time, and this minimal fix
is probably adequate for any realistic scenario, and is simple enough to
be appropriate for applying to stable kernels now.
Thanks to George Davis for reporting the problem.

I wonder on what type of UFS do you test this patch? NetBSD and FreeBSD
do not use "fs_state", they use "fs_clean" flag, only Solaris does check
like this: fs_state + fs_time == FSOK.
That's why parentheses was like that.
At now with linux-2.6.24-rc1-git1, I get: fs need fsck, but NetBSD's fsck
says that's all ok.
I suggest revert this patch.

It's possible to provoke unionfs (not yet in mainline, though in mm and
some distros) to hit shmem_writepage's BUG_ON(page_mapped(page)). I expect
it's possible to provoke the 2.6.23 ecryptfs in the same way (but the
2.6.24 ecryptfs no longer calls lower level's ->writepage).
This came to light with the recent find that AOP_WRITEPAGE_ACTIVATE could
leak from tmpfs via write_cache_pages and unionfs to userspace. There's
already a fix (e423003028183df54f039dfda8b58c49e78c89d7 - writeback: don't
propagate AOP_WRITEPAGE_ACTIVATE) in the tree for that, and it's okay so
far as it goes; but insufficient because it doesn't address the underlying
issue, that shmem_writepage expects to be called only by vmscan (relying on
backing_dev_info capabilities to prevent the normal writeback path from
ever approaching it).
That's an increasingly fragile assumption, and ramdisk_writepage (the other
source of AOP_WRITEPAGE_ACTIVATEs) is already careful to check
wbc->for_reclaim before returning it. Make the same check in
shmem_writepage, thereby sidestepping the page_mapped BUG also.

Implement ATA_QCFLAG_QUIET which indicates that there's no need to
report if the command fails with AC_ERR_DEV and set it for passthrough
commands.
Combined with previous changes, this now makes device errors for all
direct commands reported directly to the issuer without going through
EH actions and reporting.
Note that EH is still invoked after non-IO device errors to determine
the nature of the error and resume command execution (some controller
requires special care after error to continue). It just performs
default maintenance after error, examines what's going on, realizes
that it's none of its business and reports the command failure without
logging any error messages.

libata EH always revalidated device and retried failed command after

users issuing direct commands. This patch makes the following
changes.
* Make sata_sil24 not request ATA_EH_REVALIDATE on device errors.
sil24 is the only driver which does this. All others let libata EH
core code decide.
* Don't request revalidation after device error of non-IO command.
Revalidation doesn't really help anybody. As ATA_EH_REVALIDATE
isn't set by default, there's no reason to clear it after sense data
is read. Kill ATA_EH_REVALIDATE clearing code while at it.
* Don't retry non-IO command after device error. Device has rejected

Second-generation Promise SATA controllers have an ASIC bug
which can trigger if the last PRD entry is larger than 164 bytes,
resulting in intermittent errors and possible data corruption.
Work around this by replacing calls to ata_qc_prep() with a
private version that fills the PRD, checks the size of the
last entry, and if necessary splits it to avoid the bug.
Also reduce sg_tablesize by 1 to accommodate the new entry.
Tested on the second-generation SATA300 TX4 and SATA300 TX2plus,
and the first-generation PDC20378.
Thanks to Alexander Sabourenkov for verifying the bug by
studying the vendor driver, and for writing the initial patch
upon which this one is based.

On systems with a very large amount of memory, the heuristics in
alloc_large_system_hash() result in a very large TCP established hash
table: 16 millions of entries for a 128 GB ia64 system. This makes
reading from /proc/net/tcp pretty slow (well over a second) and as a
result netstat is slow on these machines. I know that /proc/net/tcp is
deprecated in favor of tcp_diag, however at the moment netstat only
knows of the former.
I am skeptical that such a large TCP established hash is often needed.
Just because a system has a lot of memory doesn't imply that it will
have several millions of concurrent TCP connections. Thus I believe
that we should put an arbitrary high limit to the size of the TCP
established hash by default. Users who really need a bigger hash can
always use the thash_entries boot parameter to get more.
I propose 2 millions of entries as the arbitrary high limit. This
makes /proc/net/tcp reasonably fast on the system in question (0.2 s)
while being still large enough for me to be confident that network
performance won't suffer.
This is just one way to limit the hash size, there are others; I am not
familiar enough with the TCP code to decide which is best. Thus, I
would welcome the proposals of alternatives.
[ 2 million is still too large, thus I've modified the limit in the
change to be '512 * 1024'. -DaveM ]

TCP Vegas implementation has a bug in the process of disabling
slow-start with gamma parameter. The bug may lead to extreme
unfairness in the presence of early packet loss. See details in:
http://www.cs.caltech.edu/~weixl/technical/ns2linux/known_linux/index.html#vegas
Switch the order of "if (tp->snd_cwnd <= tp->snd_ssthresh)" statement
and "if (diff > gamma)" statement to eliminate the problem.

Instead of using the default timeout of 3 minutes, this uses the timeout
specific to the protocol used for the connection. The 3 minute timeout
seems somewhat arbitrary (though I know it is used other places in the
ipvs code) and when failing over it would be much nicer to use one of
the configured timeout values.
