None of the contents of this file comes from the original if_ppp.h

tcp: fix false reordering signal in tcp_shifted_skb
When tcp_shifted_skb() shifts bytes from the skb that is currently
pointed to by 'highest_sack' then the increment of
TCP_SKB_CB(skb)->seq implicitly advances tcp_highest_sack_seq(). This
implicit advancement, combined with the recent fix to pass the correct
SACKed range into tcp_sacktag_one(), caused tcp_sacktag_one() to think
that the newly SACKed range was before the tcp_highest_sack_seq(),
leading to a call to tcp_update_reordering() with a degree of
reordering matching the size of the newly SACKed range (typically just
1 packet, which is a NOP, but potentially larger).
This commit fixes this by simply calling tcp_sacktag_one() before the
TCP_SKB_CB(skb)->seq advancement that can advance our notion of the
highest SACKed sequence.
Correspondingly, we can simplify the code a little now that
tcp_shifted_skb() should update the lost_cnt_hint in all cases where
skb == tp->lost_skb_hint.

23) b44_pci_exit() should not have __exit tag since it's invoked from
non-__exit code. From Nikola Pajkovsky.
24) The conversion of the neighbour hash tables over to RCU added a
race, fixed here by adding the necessary reread of tbl->nht, fix
from Michel Machado.
25) When we added VF (virtual function) attributes for network device
dumps, this potentially bloats up the size of the dump of one
network device such that the dump size is too large for the buffer
allocated by properly written netlink applications.
In particular, if you add 255 VFs to a network device, parts of
GLIBC stop working.
To fix this, we add an attribute that is used to turn on these
extended portions of the network device dump. Sophisticaed
applications like 'ip' that want to see this stuff will be changed
to set the attribute, whereas things like GLIBC that don't care
about VFs simply will not, and therefore won't be busted by the
mere presence of VFs on a network device.
Thanks to the tireless work of Greg Rose on this fix.

A driver xmit function is not allowed to change skb without special

mlx4_en_xmit() should not call skb_reset_mac_header() and instead should
use skb->data to access ethernet header.
This removes a dumb test : if (ethh && ethh->h_dest)

autofs: work around unhappy compat problem on x86-64
When the autofs protocol version 5 packet type was added in commit
5c0a32fc2cd0 ("autofs4: add new packet type for v5 communications"), it
obvously tried quite hard to be word-size agnostic, and uses explicitly
sized fields that are all correctly aligned.
However, with the final "char name[NAME_MAX+1]" array at the end, the
actual size of the structure ends up being not very well defined:
because the struct isn't marked 'packed', doing a "sizeof()" on it will
align the size of the struct up to the biggest alignment of the members
it has.
And despite all the members being the same, the alignment of them is
different: a "__u64" has 4-byte alignment on x86-32, but native 8-byte
alignment on x86-64. And while 'NAME_MAX+1' ends up being a nice round
number (256), the name[] array starts out a 4-byte aligned.
End result: the "packed" size of the structure is 300 bytes: 4-byte, but
not 8-byte aligned.
As a result, despite all the fields being in the same place on all
architectures, sizeof() will round up that size to 304 bytes on
architectures that have 8-byte alignment for u64.
Note that this is *not* a problem for 32-bit compat mode on POWER, since
there __u64 is 8-byte aligned even in 32-bit mode. But on x86, 32-bit
and 64-bit alignment is different for 64-bit entities, and as a result
the structure that has exactly the same layout has different sizes.
So on x86-64, but no other architecture, we will just subtract 4 from
the size of the structure when running in a compat task. That way we
will write the properly sized packet that user mode expects.
Not pretty. Sadly, this very subtle, and unnecessary, size difference
has been encoded in user space that wants to read packets of *exactly*
the right size, and will refuse to touch anything else.

remaining in the queue, and triggering a 'bad seq' error on the

This can generate a lot of unwanted and misleading log messages.

tipc: Hide internal details of node table implementation
Relocates information about the size of TIPC's node table index and
its associated hash function, since only node subsystem routines need
to have access to this information.
Note that these changes are essentially cosmetic in nature, and have
no impact on the actual operation of TIPC.

This "shortform" is actually longer than typing out what it is really

lets simply shoot it in the head.
In the case of log.c - the comparison is on a u32, so we can drop the
check for < 0 at the same time.

tipc: Add check to prevent insertion of duplicate name table entries
Adds a new check to TIPC's name table logic to reject any attempt to
create a new name publication that is identical to an existing one.
(Such an attempt will never happen under normal circumstances, but
could arise if another network node malfunctions and issues a duplicate
name publication message.)

tipc: Simplify enforcement of reserved name type prohibition
Streamlines the logic that prevents an application from binding a
reserved TIPC name type to a port by moving the check to the code
that handles a socket bind() operation. This allows internal TIPC
subsystems to bind a reserved name without having to set an atomic
flag to gain permission to use such a name. (This simplification is
now possible due to the elimination of support for TIPC's native API.)

tipc: Remove duplicate check of message destination node
Eliminates a check in the processing of TIPC messages arriving from
off node that ensures the message is destined for this node, since this
check duplicates an earlier check. (The check would be necessary if TIPC
needed to be able to route incoming messages to another node, but the
elimination of multi-cluster support means that this never happens and
all incoming messages are consumed by the receiving node.)
Note: This change involves the elimination of a single "if" statement
with a large "then" clause; consequently, a significant number of lines
end up getting re-indented. In addition, a simple message header access
routine that is no longer referenced is eliminated. However, the only
functional change is the elimination of the single check described above.

tipc: Detect duplicate nodes using different network interfaces
Utilizes the new "node signature" field in neighbor discovery messages
to ensure that all links TIPC associates with a given <Z.C.N> network
address belong to the same neighboring node. (Previously, TIPC could not
tell if link setup requests arriving on different interfaces were from
the same node or from two different nodes that has mistakenly been assigned
the same network address.)
The revised algorithm for detecting a duplicate node considers both the
node signature and the network interface adddress specified in a request
message when deciding how to respond to a link setup request. This prevents
false alarms that might otherwise arise during normal network operation
under the following scenarios:
a) A neighboring node reboots. (The node's signature changes, but the
network interface address remains unchanged.)
b) A neighboring node's network interface is replaced. (The node's signature
remains unchanged, but the network interface address changes.)
c) A neighboring node is completely replaced. (The node's signature and
network interface address both change.)
The algorithm also handles cases in which a node reboots and re-establishes
its links to TIPC (or begins re-establishing those links) before TIPC
detects that it is using a new node signature. In such cases of "delayed
rediscovery" TIPC simply accepts the new signature without disrupting
communication that is already underway over the links.
Thanks to Laser [gotolaser@gmail.com] for his contributions to the
development of this enhancement.

tipc: Introduce node signature field in neighbor discovery message
Adds support for the new "node signature" in neighbor discovery messages,
which is a 16 bit identifier chosen randomly when TIPC is initialized.
This field makes it possible for nodes receiving a neighbor discovery
message to detect if multiple neighboring nodes are using the same network
address (i.e. <Z.C.N>), even when the messages are arriving on different
interfaces.
This first phase of node signature support creates the signature,
incorporates it into outgoing neighbor discovery messages, and tracks
the signature used by valid neighbors. An upcoming patch builds on this
foundation to implement the improved duplicate neighbor detection checking.
