[GIT]: Networking

From: David Miller
Date: Tue Dec 02 2008 - 02:19:40 EST



1) We still had some problem with that AF_UNIX test case.

As I mentioned the other week when this all came up, it is
possible to get this test case into a state where the child
still running can queue new SCM passed fds to the parent
faster than the exit'ing parent can clean them up in UNIX
garbage collection.

People have even triggered OOM with this situation.

The solution I designed, and Dann Frazier implemented, is to
make threads of control about to hit scm_send() wait until
any pending UNIX garbage collection finishes.

2) Make skb_truesize_bug() WARN() so that we can get more information
about the cause of the problem, from Arjan.

3) Socket leak in pppol2tp_release(), fix from Frédéric Moulins.

4) update_mtu() method can crash with GRE tunnels over bridging.
Fix from Herbert Xu.

5) TCP urgent data should avoid trying to use TSO/GSO. From Petr
Tesarik.

6) Fix hp-plus driver link errors and use of wrong 8390 lib poll
handler, from Randy Dunlap.

7) OOPS fix in phonet_address_del(), from Rémi Denis-Courmont.

8) Wireless bug fixes from the wireless crew, via John Linville.

9) Catalin Marinas found a leak in the proto_register() handling.

Please pull, thanks a lot.
