[PATCH] Fix 6pack setting of MAC address

Don't check type of sax25_family; dev_set_mac_address has already done
that before and anyway, the type to check against would have been
ARPHRD_AX25.  We only got away because AF_AX25 and ARPHRD_AX25 both happen
to be defined to the same value.

Don't check sax25_ndigis either; it's value is insignificant for the
purpose of setting the MAC address and the check has shown to break
some application software for no good reason.

[PATCH] cpu_exclusive sched domains on partial nodes temp fix

This keeps the kernel/cpuset.c routine update_cpu_domains() from
invoking the sched.c routine partition_sched_domains() if the cpuset in
question doesn't fall on node boundaries.

I have boot tested this on an SN2, and with the help of a couple of ad
hoc printk's, determined that it does indeed avoid calling the
partition_sched_domains() routine on partial nodes.

I did not directly verify that this avoids setting up bogus sched
domains or avoids the oops that Hawkes saw.

This patch imposes a silent artificial constraint on which cpusets can
be used to define dynamic sched domains.

This patch should allow proceeding with this new feature in 2.6.13 for
the configurations in which it is useful (node alligned sched domains)
while avoiding trying to setup sched domains in the less useful cases
that can cause the kernel corruption and oops.

[PATCH] preempt race in getppid

With CONFIG_PREEMPT && !CONFIG_SMP, it's possible for sys_getppid to
return a bogus value if the parent's task_struct gets reallocated after
current->group_leader->real_parent is read:

        asmlinkage long sys_getppid(void)
        {
                int pid;
                struct task_struct *me = current;
                struct task_struct *parent;

                parent = me->group_leader->real_parent;
RACE HERE =>    for (;;) {
                        pid = parent->tgid;
        #ifdef CONFIG_SMP
        {
                        struct task_struct *old = parent;

                        /*
                         * Make sure we read the pid before re-reading the
                         * parent pointer:
                         */
                        smp_rmb();
                        parent = me->group_leader->real_parent;

                                continue;
        }
        #endif
                        break;
                }
                return pid;
        }

If the process gets preempted at the indicated point, the parent process
can go ahead and call exit() and then get wait()'d on to reap its
task_struct. When the preempted process gets resumed, it will not do any
further checks of the parent pointer on !CONFIG_SMP: it will read the
bad pid and return.

So, the same algorithm used when SMP is enabled should be used when
preempt is enabled, which will recheck ->real_parent in this case.

But it's easy to create a situation where the bit never

1) set TCP_NODELAY
2) clear TCP_NODELAY

The current code will leave TCP_NAGLE_PUSH set after that
sequence.  Unconditionally clearing the bit when new data
is added via skb_entail() solves the problem.

The socket flag cleanups that went into 2.6.12-rc1 are basically oring
the flags of an old socket into the socket just being created.
Unfortunately that one was just initialized by sock_init_data(), so already
has SOCK_ZAPPED set.  As the result zapped sockets are created and all
incoming connection will fail due to this bug which again was carefully
replicated to at least AX.25, NET/ROM or ROSE.

In order to keep the abstraction alive I've introduced sock_copy_flags()
to copy the socket flags from one sockets to another and used that
instead of the bitwise copy thing.  Anyway, the idea here has probably
been to copy all flags, so sock_copy_flags() should be the right thing.

From: Dave Johnson <djohnson+linux-kernel@sw.starentnetworks.com>

Found this bug while doing some scaling testing that created 500K inet
peers.

peer_check_expire() in net/ipv4/inetpeer.c isn't using inet_peer_gc_mintime
correctly and will end up creating an expire timer with less than the
minimum duration, and even zero/negative if enough active peers are
present.

If >65K peers, the timer will be less than inet_peer_gc_mintime, and with
>70K peers, the timer duration will reach zero and go negative.

The timer handler will continue to schedule another zero/negative timer in
a loop until peers can be aged.  This can continue for at least a few
minutes or even longer if the peers remain active due to arriving packets
while the loop is occurring.

multiple CPUs from doing it in parallel - which won't work because TSC
sync has global unprotected state.

Fix nasty ncpfs symlink handling bug.

This bug could cause oopses and page state corruption, because ncpfs
used the generic page-cache symlink handlign functions.  But those
functions only work if the page cache is guaranteed to be "stable", ie a
page that was installed when the symlink walk was started has to still
be installed in the page cache at the end of the walk.

We could have fixed ncpfs to not use the generic helper routines, but it
is in many ways much cleaner to instead improve on the symlink walking
helper routines so that they don't require that absolute stability.

We do this by allowing "follow_link()" to return a error-pointer as a
cookie, which is fed back to the cleanup "put_link()" routine.  This
also simplifies NFS symlink handling.

[PATCH] jffs2: fix symlink error handling

The current calling conventions for ->follow_link() are already fairly
complex.

What we have is
1) you can return -error; then you must release nameidata yourself
   and ->put_link() will _not_ be called.
2) you can do nd_set_link(nd, ERR_PTR(-error)) and return 0
3) you can do nd_set_link(nd, path) and return 0
4) you can return 0 (after having moved nameidata yourself)

jffs2 follow_link() is broken - it has an exit where it returns
-EIO and leaks nameidata.

[TG3]: Fix SerDes detection

A problem was reported by Grant Grundler on an HP rx8620 using IOX
Core LAN partno(A7109-6) 5701 copper NIC. The tg3 driver mistakenly
detects this NIC as having a SerDes PHY and link does not come up as a
result.

The problem was caused by an incorrectly programmed eeprom that set the
NIC_SRAM_DATA_CFG_PHY_TYPE_FIBER bit in the NIC_SRAM_DATA_CFG location.

This patch will override the NIC_SRAM_DATA_CFG_PHY_TYPE_FIBER bit if a
valid PHY ID is read from the MII registers on older 570x chips where
the MII interface is not used on SerDes chips. On newer chips such as
the 5780 that use MII for both copper and SerDes, SerDes detection must
rely on the eeprom.

This patch will make the SerDes detection identical to versions 3.25 and
older.
