Linux IPv6 forwards unicast packets, which are link layer multicasts... The hole was present since day one. I was 100% this check is there, but it is not. The problem shows itself, f.e. when Microsoft Network Load Balancer runs on a network. This software resolves IPv6 unicast addresses to multicast MAC addresses.

The IPv6 tproxy patches split IPv6 defragmentation off of conntrack, but failed to update the #ifdef stanzas guarding the defragmentation related fields and code in skbuff and conntrack related code in nf_defrag_ipv6.c.

2011-01-12netfilter: ebtables: make broute table work againFlorian Westphal1-1/+1
broute table init hook sets up the "br_should_route_hook" pointer, which then gets called from br_input. commit a386f99025f13b32502fe5dedf223c20d7283826 (bridge: add proper RCU annotation to should_route_hook) introduced a typedef, and then changed this to: br_should_route_hook_t *rhook; [..] rhook = rcu_dereference(br_should_route_hook); if (*rhook(skb)) problem is that "br_should_route_hook" contains the address of the function, so calling *rhook() results in kernel panic.

2011-01-12netfilter: fix race in conntrack between dump_table and destroyStephen Hemminger1-9/+5
The netlink interface to dump the connection tracking table has a race when entries are deleted at the same time. A customer reported a crash and the backtrace showed thatctnetlink_dump_table was running while a conntrack entry was being destroyed. (see https://bugzilla.vyatta.com/show_bug.cgi?id=6402). According to RCU documentation, when using hlist_nulls the reader must handle the case of seeing a deleted entry and not proceed further down the linked list. The old code would continue which caused the scan to walk into the free list. This patch uses locking (rather than RCU) for this operation which is guaranteed safe, and no longer requires getting reference while doing dump operation.

2011-01-12tcp: disallow bind() to reuse addr/portEric Dumazet2-3/+4
inet_csk_bind_conflict() logic currently disallows a bind() if it finds a friend socket (a socket bound on same address/port) satisfying a set of conditions : 1) Current (to be bound) socket doesnt have sk_reuse set OR 2) other socket doesnt have sk_reuse set OR 3) other socket is in LISTEN state We should add the CLOSE state in the 3) condition, in order to avoid two REUSEADDR sockets in CLOSE state with same local address/port, since this can deny further operations. Note : a prior patch tried to address the problem in a different (and buggy) way. (commit fda48a0d7a8412ced tcp: bind() fix when many ports are bound).

2011-01-11arp: allow to invalidate specific ARP entriesMaxim Levitsky2-11/+19
IPv4 over firewire needs to be able to remove ARP entries from the ARP cache that belong to nodes that are removed, because IPv4 over firewire uses ARP packets for private information about nodes. This information becomes invalid as soon as node drops off the bus and when it reconnects, its only possible to start talking to it after it responded to an ARP packet. But ARP cache prevents such packets from being sent. Signed-off-by: Maxim Levitsky <maximlevitsky@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2011-01-11cxgb4vf: fix mailbox data/control coherency domain raceCasey Leedom1-0/+11
For the VFs, the Mailbox Data "registers" are actually backed by T4's "MA" interface rather than PL Registers (as is the case for the PFs). Because these are in different coherency domains, the write to the VF's PL-register-backed Mailbox Control can race in front of the writes to the MA-backed VF Mailbox Data "registers". So we need to do a read-back on at least one byte of the VF Mailbox Data registers before doing the write to the VF Mailbox Control register.

pcmcia_request_irq() and pcmcia_enable_device() are intended to be called from process context (first function allocate memory with GFP_KERNEL, second take a mutex). We can not take spin lock and call them. It's safe to move spin lock after pcmcia_enable_device() as we still hold off IRQ until dev->base_addr is 0 and driver will not proceed with interrupts when is not ready.

2011-01-10ipw2200: Check for -1 INTA in tasklet too.Indan Zupancic1-0/+7
This is an attempt to fix a long standing open bug: http://bugzilla.intellinuxwireless.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1334 The interrupt handler checks for INTA being -1, apparently that means that the hardware is gone. But the interrupt handler defers actual interrupt processing to a tasklet. By the time the tasklet is run and checks INTA again, the hardware might be gone and INTA be -1, which confuses the driver because all event bits are set. The patch applies to 2.6.37.
