Prior to calling IUCV functions, the DECLARE BUFFER function must have been
called for at least one CPU to receive IUCV interrupts.With commit "iucv: establish reboot notifier" (6c005961), a check has been
introduced to avoid calling IUCV functions if the current CPU does not have
an interrupt buffer declared.
Because one interrupt buffer is sufficient, change the condition to ensure
that one interrupt buffer is available.In addition, checking the buffer on the current CPU creates a race with
CPU up/down notifications: before checking the buffer, the IUCV function
might be interrupted by an smp_call_function() that retrieves the interrupt
buffer for the current CPU.
When the IUCV function continues, the check fails and -EIO is returned. If a
buffer is available on any other CPU, the IUCV function call must be invoked
(instead of failing with -EIO).Signed-off-by: Hendrik Brueckner

During suspend IUCV exploiters have to close their IUCV connections.
When restoring an image, it can be checked if all IUCV pathes had
been closed before the Linux instance was suspended. If not, an
error message is issued to indicate a problem in one of the
used programs exploiting IUCV communication.Signed-off-by: Ursula Braun

net/core/netpoll.c::netpoll_send_skb() calls the poll handler when
it is available. As netconsole can be used from almost any context,
IRQ must not be enabled blindly in the NAPI handler of the driver
which supports netpoll.Call trace:
netpoll_send_skb()
{
local_irq_save(flags)
-> netpoll_poll()
-> poll_napi()
-> poll_one_napi()
-> napi->poll()
-> b44_poll()

RFC4191 says that "If the Reserved (10) value is received, the Route
Information Option MUST be ignored.", so this patch makes us conform
to the RFC. This is different to the usage of the Default Router
Preference, where an invalid value must indeed be treated as
PREF_MEDIUM.Signed-off-by: Jens Rosenboom

When I was implementing primary_passive option (formely named primary_lazy) I've
run into troubles with ab_arp. This is the only mode which is not using
bond_select_active_slave() function to select active slave and instead it
selects it itself. This seems to be not the right behaviour and it would be
better to do it in bond_select_active_slave() for all cases. This patch makes
this happen. Please review.Signed-off-by: Jiri Pirko

There's a check saying
/* we're good if we have both BSSID and channel */
if (wdev->conn->params.bssid && wdev->conn->params.channel) {but that isn't true -- we need the BSS struct. This leads
to errors such asTrying to associate with 00:1b:53:11:dc:40 (SSID='TEST' freq=2412 MHz)
ioctl[SIOCSIWFREQ]: No such file or directory
ioctl[SIOCSIWESSID]: No such file or directory
Association request to the driver failed
Associated with 00:1b:53:11:dc:40in wpa_supplicant, as reported by Holger.
Instead, we really need to have the BSS struct, and if we
don't, then we need to initiate a scan for it. But we may
already have the BSS struct here, so hang on to it if we
do and scan if we don't.Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

I have recently came across a preemption imbalance detected by:
huh, entered ffffffff80644630 with preempt_count 00000102, exited with 00000101?
------------[ cut here ]------------
kernel BUG at /usr/src/linux/kernel/timer.c:664!
invalid opcode: 0000 [1] PREEMPT SMPwith ffffffff80644630 being inet_twdr_hangman().
This appeared after I enabled CONFIG_TCP_MD5SIG and played with it a
bit, so I looked at what might have caused it.One thing that struck me as strange is tcp_twsk_destructor(), as it
calls tcp_put_md5sig_pool() -- which entails a put_cpu(), causing the
detected imbalance. Found on 2.6.23.9, but 2.6.31 is affected as well,
as far as I can tell.Signed-off-by: Robert Varga

After the recent mq change there is the new select_queue qdisc class
method used in tc_modify_qdisc, but it works OK only for direct child
qdiscs of mq qdisc. Grandchildren always get the first tx queue, which
would give wrong qdisc_root etc. results (e.g. for sch_htb as child of
sch_prio). This patch fixes it by using parent's dev_queue for such
grandchildren qdiscs. The select_queue method's return type is changed
BTW.With feedback from: Patrick McHardy

This patch fixes commit e36b9d16c6a6d0f59803b3ef04ff3c22c3844c10. The approach
there is to call dev_close()/dev_open() whenever the device type is changed in
order to remap the device IP multicast addresses to HW multicast addresses.
This approach suffers from 2 drawbacks:*. It assumes tha the device is UP when calling dev_close(), or otherwise
dev_close() has no affect. It is worth to mention that initscripts (Redhat)
and sysconfig (Suse) doesn't act the same in this matter.
*. dev_close() has other side affects, like deleting entries from the routing
table, which might be unnecessary.The fix here is to directly remap the IP multicast addresses to HW multicast
addresses for a bonding device that changes its type, and nothing else.Reported-by: Jason Gunthorpe

When using nanosleep() in an userspace application we get a ratelimit warning
NOHZ: local_softirq_pending 08
for 10 times.
The echo of CAN frames is done from process context and softirq context only.
Therefore the usage of netif_rx() was wrong (for years).This patch replaces netif_rx() with netif_rx_ni() which has to be used from
process/softirq context. It also adds a missing comment that can_send() must
no be used from hardirq context.Signed-off-by: Oliver Hartkopp

The packet split feature was recently moved out of the adapter-wide flags
feature field and into a per-Rx ring feature field. In the process, packet
split isn't properly disabled in the Rx ring if the adapter has it globally
disabled, followed by a device reset.This won't impact the driver today, since it's always in packet split mode.
However, this will prevent any pitfalls if someone disables packet split on
the adapter in the future and doesn't disable it in each ring.Signed-off-by: Peter P Waskiewicz Jr
