In order to get the tun driver to account packets, we need to be
able to receive packets with destructors set. To be on the safe
side, I added an skb_orphan call for all protocols by default since
some of them (IP in particular) cannot handle receiving packets
destructors properly.Now it seems that at least one protocol (CAN) expects to be able
to pass skb->sk through the rx path without getting clobbered.So this patch attempts to fix this properly by moving the skb_orphan
call to where it's actually needed. In particular, I've added it
to skb_set_owner_[rw] which is what most users of skb->destructor
call.This is actually an improvement for tun too since it means that
we only give back the amount charged to the socket when the skb
is passed to another socket that will also be charged accordingly.Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu

(net: No more expensive sock_hold()/sock_put() on each tx)
changed initial sk_wmem_alloc value.Some protocols check sk_wmem_alloc value to determine if a timer
must delay socket deallocation. We must take care of the sk_wmem_alloc
value being one instead of zero when no write allocations are pending.Reported by Ingo Molnar, and full diagnostic from David Miller.
This patch introduces three helpers to get read/write allocations
and a followup patch will use these helpers to report correct
write allocations to user.Reported-by: Ingo Molnar

Tihomir Heidelberg - 9a4gl, reports:
--------------------
I would like to direct you attention to one problem existing in ax.25
kernel since 2.4. If listening socket is closed and its SKB queue is
released but those sockets get weird. Those "unAccepted()" sockets
should be destroyed in ax25_std_heartbeat_expiry, but it will not
happen. And there is also a note about that in ax25_std_timer.c:
/* Magic here: If we listen() and a new link dies before it
is accepted() it isn't 'dead' so doesn't get removed. */This issue cause ax25d to stop accepting new connections and I had to
restarted ax25d approximately each day and my services were unavailable.
Also netstat -n -l shows invalid source and device for those listening
sockets. It is strange why ax25d's listening socket get weird because of
this issue, but definitely when I solved this bug I do not have problems
with ax25d anymore and my ax25d can run for months without problems.
--------------------Actually as far as I can see, this problem is even in releases
as far back as 2.2.x as well.It seems senseless to special case this test on TCP_LISTEN state.
Anything still stuck in state 0 has no external references and
we can just simply kill it off directly.Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

The way that listening sockets work in ax25 is that the packet input
code path creates new socks via ax25_make_new() and attaches them
to the incoming SKB. This SKB gets queued up into the listening
socket's receive queue.When accept()'d the sock gets hooked up to the real parent socket.
Alternatively, if the listening socket is closed and released, any
unborn socks stuff up in the receive queue get released.So during this time period these sockets are unreachable in any
other way, so no wakeup events nor references to their ->sk_socket
and ->sk_sleep members can occur. And even if they do, all such
paths have to make NULL checks.So do not deceptively initialize them in ax25_make_new() to the
values in the listening socket. Leave them at NULL.Finally, use sock_graft() in ax25_accept().

There is only one function in AX25 calling skb_append(), and it really
looks suspicious: appends skb after previously enqueued one, but in
the meantime this previous skb could be removed from the queue.This patch Fixes it the simple way, so this is not fully compatible with
the current method, but testing hasn't shown any problems.Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle

The ax25_uid_free call walks the ax25_uid_list and releases entries
from it. The problem is that after the fisrt call to hlist_del_init
the hlist_for_each_entry (which hides behind the ax25_uid_for_each)
will consider the current position to be the last and will return.Thus, the whole list will be left not freed.

According to some OOPS reports ax25_kick tries to clone NULL skbs
sometimes. It looks like a race with ax25_clear_queues(). Probably
there is no need to add more than a simple check for this yet.
Another report suggested there are probably also cases where ax25
->paclen == 0 can happen in ax25_output(); this wasn't confirmed
during testing but let's leave this debugging check for some time.Reported-and-tested-by: Jann Traschewski

...shows that ax25_list_lock and slock-AF_AX25 are taken in different
order: ax25_info_show() takes slock (bh_lock_sock(ax25->sk)) while
ax25_list_lock is held, so reversely to other functions. To fix this
the sock lock should be moved to ax25_info_start(), and there would
be still problem with breaking ax25_list_lock (it seems this "proper"
order isn't optimal yet). But, since it's only for reading proc info
it seems this is not necessary (e.g. ax25_send_to_raw() does similar
reading without this lock too).So, this patch removes sock lock to avoid deadlock possibility; there
is also used sock_i_ino() function, which reads sk_socket under proper
read lock. Additionally printf format of this i_ino is changed to %lu.Reported-by: Bernard Pidoux F6BVP

I don't know if this three-thread clutch is very probable (or
possible at all), but it seems another bug reported by Bernard
("[...] system impossible to reboot with linux-2.6.24-rc5")
could have similar source - namely ax25_list_lock held by
ax25_kill_by_device() during ax25_disconnect(). It looks like the
only place which calls ax25_disconnect() this way, so I guess, it
isn't necessary.This patch is breaking the lock for ax25_disconnect().
