We splice skbs from the pending queue for a TID
onto the local pending queue when tearing down a
block ack request. This is not necessary unless we
actually have received a request to start a block ack
request (rate control, for example). If we never received
that request we should not be splicing the tid pending
queue as it would be null, causing a panic.
Not sure yet how exactly we allowed through a call when the
tid state does not have at least HT_ADDBA_REQUESTED_MSK set,
that will require some further review as it is not quite
obvious.

kernel_sendpage() does the proper default case handling for when the
socket doesn't have a native sendpage implementation.
Now, arguably this might be something that we could instead solve by
just specifying that all protocols should do it themselves at the
protocol level, but we really only care about the common protocols.
Does anybody really care about sendpage on something like Appletalk? Not
likely.

In all rx'd SKB cases, atalk_rcv() either eventually jumps to or falls through
to the label out:, which returns numeric 0. Numeric 0 corresponds to
NET_RX_SUCCESS, which is incorrect in failed SKB cases.
This patch makes atalk_rcv() provide the correct returns by:
o explicitly returning NET_RX_SUCCESS in the two success cases
o having the out: label return NET_RX_DROP, instead of numeric 0
o making the failed SKB labels and processing more consistent with other
_rcv() routines in the kernel, simplifying validation and removing a
backwards goto

This adds the second check that Rusty wanted to have a long time ago. :-)
Base chain policies must have absolute verdicts that cease processing
in the table, otherwise rule execution may continue in an unexpected
spurious fashion (e.g. next chain that follows in memory).

This adds a check that iptables's original author Rusty set forth in
a FIXME comment.
Underflows in iptables are better known as chain policies, and are
required to be unconditional or there would be a stochastical chance
for the policy rule to be skipped if it does not match. If that were
to happen, rule execution would continue in an unexpected spurious
fashion.
Signed-off-by: Jan Engelhardt <jengelh@medozas.de>
The "hook_entry" and "underflow" array contains values even for hooks
not provided, such as PREROUTING in conjunction with the "filter"
table. Usually, the values point to whatever the next rule is. For
the upcoming unconditionality and underflow checking patches however,
we must not inspect that arbitrary rule.
Skipping unassigned hooks seems like a good idea, also because
newinfo->hook_entry and newinfo->underflow will then continue to have
the poison value for detecting abnormalities.

Instead of inspecting each u32/char open-coded, clean up and make use
of memcmp. On some arches, memcmp is implemented as assembly or GCC's
__builtin_memcmp which can possibly take advantages of known
alignment.

For events that are rare, such as referral DNS lookups, it makes limited
sense to have a daemon constantly listening for upcalls on a channel. An
alternative in those cases might simply be to run the app that fills the
cache using call_usermodehelper_exec() and friends.
The following patch allows the cache_detail to specify alternative upcall
mechanisms for these particular cases.
Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>
While we do want to protect against multiple concurrent readers and writers
on each upcall/downcall pipe, we don't want to limit concurrent reading and
writing to separate caches.
This patch therefore replaces the static buffer 'write_buf', which can only
be used by one writer at a time, with use of the page cache as the
temporary buffer for downcalls. We still fall back to using the the old
global buffer if the downcall is larger than PAGE_CACHE_SIZE, since this is
apparently needed by the SPKM security context initialisation.
It then replaces the use of the global 'queue_io_mutex' with the
inode->i_mutex in cache_read() and cache_write().

Also ensure that we destroy those files before we destroy the cache_detail.
Otherwise, user processes might attempt to write into uninitialised caches.

In order to allow rpc_pipefs to create directories with different types of
subtrees, it is useful to allow the caller to customise the subtree filling
process.
In order to do so, we separate out the parts which are specific to making
an RPC client directory, and put them in a separate helper, then we convert
the process of filling the directory contents into a callback.
Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>
There is still a little wart or two there: Since we've already got a
vfsmount, we might as well pass that in to rpc_create_client_dir.
Another point is that if we open code __rpc_lookup_path() here, then we can
avoid looking up the entire parent directory path over and over again: it
doesn't change.
Also get rid of rpc_clnt->cl_pathname, since it has no users...

This reflects the fact that rpc_mkdir() as it stands today, can only create
a RPC client type directory.
