commit 330966e501 upstream.
skb_gso_segment has three possible return values:
1. a pointer to the first segmented skb
2. an errno value (IS_ERR())
3. NULL. This can happen when GSO is used for header verification.
However, several callers currently test IS_ERR instead of IS_ERR_OR_NULL
and would oops when NULL is returned.
Note that these call sites should never actually see such a NULL return
value; all callers mask out the GSO bits in the feature argument.
However, there have been issues with some protocol handlers erronously not
respecting the specified feature mask in some cases.
It is preferable to get 'have to turn off hw offloading, else slow' reports
rather than 'kernel crashes'.

"skb" is non-NULL here, for example we dereference it in skb_clone().
The intent was to test "nskb" which was just set.

When the kernel validates set TCP/UDP port actions, it looks at
the ports in the existing flow to make sure that the L4 header exists.
However, these actions always use the IPv4 version of the struct.
Following patch fixes this by checking for flow ip protocol first.

Remove all #inclusions of asm/system.h preparatory to splitting and killing
it. Performed with the following command:

When OVS_VPORT_ATTR_NAME is specified and dp_ifindex is nonzero, the
logical behavior would be for the vport name lookup scope to be limited
to the specified datapath, but in fact the dp_ifindex value was ignored.
This commit causes the search scope to be honored.

The logic to split up the list of datapaths into multiple Netlink messages
was simply wrong, causing the list to be terminated after the first part.
Only about the first 50 datapaths would be dumped. This fixes the
problem.

Open vSwitch is a multilayer Ethernet switch targeted at virtualized
environments. In addition to supporting a variety of features
expected in a traditional hardware switch, it enables fine-grained
programmatic extension and flow-based control of the network.
This control is useful in a wide variety of applications but is
particularly important in multi-server virtualization deployments,
which are often characterized by highly dynamic endpoints and the need
to maintain logical abstractions for multiple tenants.
The Open vSwitch datapath provides an in-kernel fast path for packet
forwarding. It is complemented by a userspace daemon, ovs-vswitchd,
which is able to accept configuration from a variety of sources and
translate it into packet processing rules.
See http://openvswitch.org for more information and userspace
utilities.
