e0e8f1c822 [IPSEC] flow: Fix potential memory leak
When old flow cache entries that are not at the head of their chain
trigger a transient security error they get unlinked along with all
the entries preceding them in the chain.  The preceding entries are
not freed correctly.

This patch fixes this by simply leaving the entry around.  It's based
on a suggestion by Venkat Yekkirala.

Herbert sayeth:

  Normally networking isn't invoked with interrupts turned off, but I
  suppose we don't have a choice here.  This is unique being a place where you
  can get called with BH on, off, or IRQs off.

  Given that this is only used for printk, the easiest solution is probably
  just to disable local IRQs instead of BH.

47bbec0282 [NETPOLL]: make arp replies through netpoll use mac address of sender
Back in 2.4 arp requests that were recevied by netpoll were processed
in netconsole_receive_skb, where they were responded to using the src
mac of the request sender.  In the 2.6 kernel arp_reply is responsible
for this function, but instead of using the src mac address of the
incomming request, the stored mac address that was registered for the
netconsole application is used.  While this is usually ok, it can lead
to failures in netpoll in some situations (specifically situations
where a network may have two gateways, as arp requests from one may be
responded to using the mac address of the other).  This patch reverts
the behavior to what we had in 2.4, in which all arp requests are sent
back using the src address of the request sender.

0231606785 [PATCH] hotplug CPU: clean up hotcpu_notifier() use
There was lots of #ifdef noise in the kernel due to hotcpu_notifier(fn,
prio) not correctly marking 'fn' as used in the !HOTPLUG_CPU case, and thus
generating compiler warnings of unused symbols, hence forcing people to add

the compiler can skip truly unused functions just fine:

e16aa207cc [NET]: Memory barrier cleanups
I believe all the below memory barriers only matter on SMP so
therefore the smp_* variant of the barrier should be used.

I'm wondering if the barrier in net/ipv4/inet_timewait_sock.c should be
dropped entirely.  schedule_work's implementation currently implies a
memory barrier and I think sane semantics of schedule_work() should imply
a memory barrier, as needed so the caller shouldn't have to worry.
It's not quite obvious why the barrier in net/packet/af_packet.c is
needed; maybe it should be implied through flush_dcache_page?

72a3effaf6 [NET]: Size listen hash tables using backlog hint
We currently allocate a fixed size (TCP_SYNQ_HSIZE=512) slots hash table for
each LISTEN socket, regardless of various parameters (listen backlog for
example)

On x86_64, this means order-1 allocations (might fail), even for 'small'
sockets, expecting few connections. On the contrary, a huge server wanting a
backlog of 50000 is slowed down a bit because of this fixed limit.

This patch makes the sizing of listen hash table a dynamic parameter,
depending of :
- net.core.somaxconn tunable (default is 128)
- net.ipv4.tcp_max_syn_backlog tunable (default : 256, 1024 or 128)
- backlog value given by user application  (2nd parameter of listen())

For large allocations (bigger than PAGE_SIZE), we use vmalloc() instead of
kmalloc().

We still limit memory allocation with the two existing tunables (somaxconn &
tcp_max_syn_backlog). So for standard setups, this patch actually reduce RAM
usage.

88041b79f8 [PATCH] netdev: don't allow register_netdev with blank name
This bit of old backwards compatibility cruft can be removed in 2.6.20.
If there is still an device that calls register_netdev()
with a zero or blank name, it will get -EINVAL from register_netdevice().
