2006-08-17[BRIDGE]: Disable SG/GSO if TX checksum is offHerbert Xu
When the bridge recomputes features, it does not maintain the constraint that SG/GSO must be off if TX checksum is off. This patch adds that constraint. On a completely unrelated note, I've also added TSO6 and TSO_ECN feature bits if GSO is enabled on the underlying device through the new NETIF_F_GSO_SOFTWARE macro.

2006-08-17[VLAN]: Make sure bonding packet drop checks get done in hwaccel RX path.David S. Miller
Since __vlan_hwaccel_rx() is essentially bypassing the netif_receive_skb() call that would have occurred if we did the VLAN decapsulation in software, we are missing the skb_bond() call and the assosciated checks it does. Export those checks via an inline function, skb_bond_should_drop(), and use this in __vlan_hwaccel_rx(). Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2006-08-13[INET]: Use pskb_trim_unique when trimming paged unique skbsHerbert Xu
The IPv4/IPv6 datagram output path was using skb_trim to trim paged packets because they know that the packet has not been cloned yet (since the packet hasn't been given to anything else in the system). This broke because skb_trim no longer allows paged packets to be trimmed. Paged packets must be given to one of the pskb_trim functions instead. This patch adds a new pskb_trim_unique function to cover the IPv4/IPv6 datagram output path scenario and replaces the corresponding skb_trim calls with it.

2006-08-06[PATCH] Make suspend possible with a traced process at a breakpointRafael J. Wysocki
It should be possible to suspend, either to RAM or to disk, if there's a traced process that has just reached a breakpoint. However, this is a special case, because its parent process might have been frozen already and then we are unable to deliver the "freeze" signal to the traced process. If this happens, it's better to cancel the freezing of the traced process. Ref. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6787 Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

2006-08-04[PKT_SCHED] RED: Fix overflow in calculation of queue averageIlpo Järvinen
Overflow can occur very easily with 32 bits, e.g., with 1 second us_idle is approx. 2^20, which leaves only 11-Wlog bits for queue length. Since the EWMA exponent is typically around 9, queue lengths larger than 2^2 cause overflow. Whether the affected branch is taken when us_idle is as high as 1 second, depends on Scell_log, but with rather reasonable configuration Scell_log is large enough to cause p->Stab to have zero index, which always results zero shift (typically also few other small indices result in zero shift).

This patch adds a new unusual_devs flag for when usb-storage needs to ignore a device that it would otherwise claim. We need to ignore the ZyXEL G220F as it is a virtual CDROM drive which includes the windows driver for this USB-WLAN adapter. After the windows driver is installed on a windows system, it converts it into a WLAN adapter (by ejecting the virtual disc). The virtual CDROM is of no interest to Linux users.

2006-08-02[AF_UNIX]: Kernel memory leak fix for af_unix datagram getpeersec patchCatherine Zhang
From: Catherine Zhang <cxzhang@watson.ibm.com> This patch implements a cleaner fix for the memory leak problem of the original unix datagram getpeersec patch. Instead of creating a security context each time a unix datagram is sent, we only create the security context when the receiver requests it. This new design requires modification of the current unix_getsecpeer_dgram LSM hook and addition of two new hooks, namely, secid_to_secctx and release_secctx. The former retrieves the security context and the latter releases it. A hook is required for releasing the security context because it is up to the security module to decide how that's done. In the case of Selinux, it's a simple kfree operation. Acked-by: Stephen Smalley <sds@tycho.nsa.gov> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

The skb_queue_head_init() function is used both in drivers for private use and in the core networking code. The usage models are vastly set of functions that is only softirq safe; while the driver usage tends to be more limited to a few hardirq safe accessor functions. Rather than annotating all 133+ driver usages, for now just split this lock into a per queue class. This change is obviously safe and probably should make 2.6.18.
