Vlad Yasevich b2cf9b6bd9 sctp: update transport initializations
Right now, sctp transports are not fully initialized and when
adding any new fields, they have to be explicitely initialized.
This is prone to mistakes.  So we switch to calling kzalloc()
which makes things much simpler.

Vlad Yasevich d9efc2231b sctp: Do not force T3 timer on fast retransmissions.
We don't need to force the T3 timer any more and it's
actually wrong to do as it causes too long of a delay.
The timer will be started if one is not running, but if
one is running, we leave it alone.

Vlad Yasevich ae19c54866 sctp: remove 'resent' bit from the chunk
The 'resent' bit is used to make sure that we don't update
rto estimate based on retransmitted chunks.  However, we already
have the 'rto_pending' bit that we test when need to update rto,
so 'resent' bit is just extra.  Additionally, we currently have
a bug in that we always set a 'resent' bit and thus rto estimate
is only updated by Heartbeats.

Vlad Yasevich d598b166ce sctp: Make sure we always return valid retransmit path
commit 4951feda0c60d1ef681f1a270afdd617924ab041
    sctp: Do no select unconfirmed transports for retransmissions

added code to make sure that we do not select unconfirmed paths
for data transmission.  This caused a problem when there are only
2 paths, 1 unconfirmed and 1 unreachable.  In that case, the next
retransmit path returned is NULL and that causes a kernel crash.

The solution is to only change retransmit paths if we found one to use.

Wei Yongjun 787a51a087 sctp: implement sctp association probing module
This patch implement sctp association probing module, the module
will be called sctp_probe.

This module allows for capturing the changes to SCTP association
state in response to incoming packets. It is used for debugging
SCTP congestion control algorithms.

Usage:
  $ modprobe sctp_probe [full=n] [port=n] [bufsize=n]
  $ cat /proc/net/sctpprobe

  The output format is:
    TIME     ASSOC     LPORT RPORT MTU    RWND  UNACK <REMOTE-ADDR   STATE  CWND   SSTHRESH  INFLIGHT  PARTIAL_BYTES_ACKED MTU> ...

  The output will be like this:

Jonas Sjöquist 2185126412 cdc_ether: Identify MBM devices by GUID in MDLM descriptor
This patch removes vid/pid for Ericsson MBM devices from the whitelist set of
devices. The MBM devices are instead identified by GUID.

In order for cdc_ether to handle these devices the GUID in the MDLM descriptor
is tested. All MBM devices currently handled by cdc_ether as well as future
CDC Ethernet MBM devices can be identified by the GUID.

This is the same solution used in Carl Nordbeck's mbm driver,
http://kerneltrap.org/mailarchive/linux-usb/2008/11/17/4141384/thread

I post this as RFC to get feedback on however cdc_ether is the correct place to
do the binding, or if it should be done in a separate driver, e.g. zaurus.

Daniel Halperin e3a3cd8789 iwlwifi: set AMPDU status variables correctly
The TX status code is currently abusing the ampdu_ack_map field (a bitmap) to
count the number of successfully received frames.  The comments in mac80211.h
show there are actually three different, relevant variables, of which we are
currently using two, both incorrectly. Fix this by making

- ampdu_ack_len -> the number of ACKed frames (i.e. successes)
- ampdu_ack_map -> the bitmap
- ampdu_len -> the total number of frames sent (i.e., attempts)

to match the header file (and verified with ath9k's usage) and updating Intel's
RS code to match.

Eric Dumazet 4b0b72f7dd net: speedup udp receive path
Since commit 95766fff ([UDP]: Add memory accounting.), 
each received packet needs one extra sock_lock()/sock_release() pair.

This added latency because of possible backlog handling. Then later,
ticket spinlocks added yet another latency source in case of DDOS.

This patch introduces lock_sock_bh() and unlock_sock_bh()
synchronization primitives, avoiding one atomic operation and backlog
processing.

skb_free_datagram_locked() uses them instead of full blown
lock_sock()/release_sock(). skb is orphaned inside locked section for
proper socket memory reclaim, and finally freed outside of it.

UDP receive path now take the socket spinlock only once.

mdiobus_register() calls device_register() which initializes the kobj of
the device. mdiobus_unregister() calls only device_del() so we have one
reference left. That one is leaving with mdiobus_free() which is only
called on remove.
Since I don't see any reason why mdiobus_register()/mdiobus_unregister()
should happen in ->open()/->close() I move them to probe & exit.

Its an skb_over_panic BUG halt that results from processing an init chunk in
which too many of its variable length parameters are in some way malformed.

The problem is in sctp_process_unk_param:
if (NULL == *errp)
	*errp = sctp_make_op_error_space(asoc, chunk,
					 ntohs(chunk->chunk_hdr->length));

	if (*errp) {
		sctp_init_cause(*errp, SCTP_ERROR_UNKNOWN_PARAM,
				 WORD_ROUND(ntohs(param.p->length)));
		sctp_addto_chunk(*errp,
			WORD_ROUND(ntohs(param.p->length)),
				  param.v);

When we allocate an error chunk, we assume that the worst case scenario requires
that we have chunk_hdr->length data allocated, which would be correct nominally,
given that we call sctp_addto_chunk for the violating parameter.  Unfortunately,
we also, in sctp_init_cause insert a sctp_errhdr_t structure into the error
chunk, so the worst case situation in which all parameters are in violation
requires chunk_hdr->length+(sizeof(sctp_errhdr_t)*param_count) bytes of data.

The result of this error is that a deliberately malformed packet sent to a
listening host can cause a remote DOS, described in CVE-2010-1173:
http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=2010-1173

I've tested the below fix and confirmed that it fixes the issue.  We move to a
strategy whereby we allocate a fixed size error chunk and ignore errors we don't
have space to report.  Tested by me successfully

Dan Carpenter f7f7cc47fc iwl: cleanup: remove unneeded error handling
This is just a cleanup and doesn't change how the code works.

debugfs_create_dir() and debugfs_create_file() return an error pointer
(-ENODEV) if CONFIG_DEBUG_FS is not enabled, otherwise if an error occurs
they return NULL.  This is how they are implemented and what it says in
the DebugFS documentation.  DebugFS can not be compiled as a module.

As a result, we only need to check for error pointers and particularly
-ENODEV one time to know that DebugFS is enabled.  This patch keeps the
first check for error pointers and removes the rest.

The other reason for this patch, is that it silences some Smatch warnings.
Smatch sees the condition "(result != -ENODEV)" and assumes that it's
possible for "result" to equal -ENODEV.  If it were possible it would lead
to an error pointer dereference.  But since it's not, we can just remove
the check.

Helmut Schaa baff8006b5 rt2x00: rt2800lib: update rfcsr & bbp init code for SoC devices
Update the rfcsr and bbp init code for SoC devices to match with the
latest Ralink driver.

To have better control over which values are used for the register
initialization create a new function rt2800_is_305x_soc which checks
for SoC interface type, the correct RT chipset and the correct RF
chipset. This is based on the assumption that all rt305x SoC devices
use a rt2872 and rf3020/rf3021/rf3022.

In case an unknown RF chipset is found on a SoC device with a rt2872
don't treat it as rt305x and just print a message.
