e89862f4c5 [TCP]: Restore SKB socket owner setting in tcp_transmit_skb().
Revert 931731123a

We can't elide the skb_set_owner_w() here because things like certain
netfilter targets (such as owner MATCH) need a socket to be set on the
SKB for correct operation.

Thanks to Jan Engelhardt and other netfilter list members for
pointing this out.

9a036b9c33 [TCP]: Fix ambiguity in the `before' relation.
While looking at DCCP sequence numbers, I stumbled over a problem with
the following definition of before in tcp.h:

static inline int before(__u32 seq1, __u32 seq2)
{
        return (__s32)(seq1-seq2) < 0;
}

Problem: This definition suffers from an an ambiguity, i.e. always

           before(a, (a + 2^31) % 2^32)) = 1
           before((a + 2^31) % 2^32), a) = 1

         In text: when the difference between a and b amounts to 2^31,
         a is always considered `before' b, the function can not decide.
         The reason is that implicitly 0 is `before' 1 ... 2^31-1 ... 2^31

Solution: There is a simple fix, by defining before in such a way that
          0 is no longer `before' 2^31, i.e. 0 `before' 1 ... 2^31-1
          By not using the middle between 0 and 2^32, before can be made
          unambiguous.
          This is achieved by testing whether seq2-seq1 > 0 (using signed
          32-bit arithmetic).

I attach a patch to codify this. Also the `after' relation is basically
a redefinition of `before', it is now defined as a macro after before.

29c7cf9618 [SCTP]: Handle address add/delete events in a more efficient way.
Currently in SCTP, we maintain a local address list by rebuilding the whole
list from the device list whenever we get a address add/delete event.

This patch fixes it by only adding/deleting the address for which we
receive the event.

Also removed the sctp_local_addr_lock() which is no longer needed as we
now use list_for_each_safe() to traverse this list. This fixes the bugs
in sctp_copy_laddrs_xxx() routines where we do copy_to_user() while
holding this lock.

edc6afc549 [PATCH] tty: switch to ktermios and new framework
This is the core of the switch to the new framework.  I've split it from the
driver patches which are mostly search/replace and would encourage people to
give this one a good hard stare.

The references to BOTHER and ISHIFT are the termios values that must be
defined by a platform once it wants to turn on "new style" ioctl support.  The
code patches here ensure that providing

1. The termios overlays the ktermios in memory
2. The only new kernel only fields are c_ispeed/c_ospeed (or none)

the existing behaviour is retained.  This is true for the patches at this
point in time.

Future patches will define BOTHER, ISHIFT and enable newer termios structures
for each architecture, and once they are all done some of the ifdefs also
vanish.

9457d851fc [NETFILTER]: nf_conntrack: automatic helper assignment for expectations
Some helpers (namely H.323) manually assign further helpers to expected
connections. This is not possible with nf_conntrack anymore since we
need to know whether a helper is used at allocation time.

Handle the helper assignment centrally, which allows to perform the
correct allocation and as a nice side effect eliminates the need
for the H.323 helper to fiddle with nf_conntrack_lock.

Mid term the allocation scheme really needs to be redesigned since
we do both the helper and expectation lookup _twice_ for every new
connection.

43effa1e57 [NET_SCHED]: Fix endless loops caused by inaccurate qlen counters (part 1)
There are multiple problems related to qlen adjustment that can lead
to an upper qdisc getting out of sync with the real number of packets
queued, leading to endless dequeueing attempts by the upper layer code.

All qdiscs must maintain an accurate q.qlen counter. There are basically
two groups of operations affecting the qlen: operations that propagate
down the tree (enqueue, dequeue, requeue, drop, reset) beginning at the
root qdisc and operations only affecting a subtree or single qdisc
(change, graft, delete class). Since qlen changes during operations from
the second group don't propagate to ancestor qdiscs, their qlen values
become desynchronized.

This patch adds a function to propagate qlen changes up the qdisc tree,
optionally calling a callback function to perform qdisc-internal
maintenance when the child qdisc becomes empty. The follow-up patches
will convert all qdiscs to use this function where necessary.

Noticed by Timo Steinbach <tsteinbach@astaro.com>.

9f9afec482 [NET_SCHED]: Set parent classid in default qdiscs
Set parent classids in default qdiscs to allow walking up the tree
from outside the qdiscs. This is needed by the next patch.

0275276035 NetLabel: convert to an extensibile/sparse category bitmap
The original NetLabel category bitmap was a straight char bitmap which worked
fine for the initial release as it only supported 240 bits due to limitations
in the CIPSO restricted bitmap tag (tag type 0x01).  This patch converts that
straight char bitmap into an extensibile/sparse bitmap in order to lay the
foundation for other CIPSO tag types and protocols.

This patch also has a nice side effect in that all of the security attributes
passed by NetLabel into the LSM are now in a format which is in the host's
native byte/bit ordering which makes the LSM specific code much simpler; look
at the changes in security/selinux/ss/ebitmap.c as an example.
