e2dbd60134 tipc: simplify print buffer handling in tipc_printf
tipc_printf was previously used both to construct debug traces
and to append data to buffers that should be sent over netlink
to the tipc-config application.  A global print_buffer was
used to format the string before it was copied to the actual
output buffer.  This could lead to concurrent access of the
global print_buffer, which then had to be lock protected.
This is simplified by changing tipc_printf to append data
directly to the output buffer using vscnprintf.

With the new implementation of tipc_printf, there is no longer
any risk of concurrent access to the internal log buffer, so
the lock (and the comments describing it) are no longer
strictly necessary.  However, there are still a few functions
that do grab this lock before resizing/dumping the log
buffer.  We leave the lock, and these functions untouched since
they will be removed with a subsequent commit that drops the
deprecated log buffer handling code

5deedde9fa tipc: simplify link_print by divorcing it from using tipc_printf
To pave the way for a pending cleanup of tipc_printf, and
removal of struct print_buf entirely, we make that task simpler
by converting link_print to issue its messages with standard
printk infrastructure.  [Original idea separated from a larger
patch from Erik Hugne <erik.hugne@ericsson.com>]

568fc588fc tipc: remove TIPC packet debugging functions and macros
The link queue traces and packet level debug functions served
a purpose during early development, but are now redundant
since there are other, more capable tools available for
debugging at the packet level.

The TIPC_DEBUG Kconfig option is removed since it does not
provide any extra debugging features anymore.

This gets rid of a lot of tipc_printf usages, which will
make the pending cleanup work of that function easier.

2cf8aa19fe tipc: use standard printk shortcut macros (pr_err etc.)
All messages should go directly to the kernel log.  The TIPC
specific error, warning, info and debug trace macro's are
removed and all references replaced with pr_err, pr_warn,
pr_info and pr_debug.

Commonly used sub-strings are explicitly declared as a const
char to reduce .text size.

Note that this means the debug messages (changed to pr_debug),
are now enabled through dynamic debugging, instead of a TIPC
specific Kconfig option (TIPC_DEBUG).  The latter will be
phased out completely

f705ab956b tipc: limit error messages relating to memory leak to one line
With the default name table size of 1024, it is possible that
the sanity check in tipc_nametbl_stop could spam out 1024
essentially identical error messages if memory was corrupted
or similar.  Limit it to issuing no more than a single message.

The actual chain number (i.e. 0 --> 1023) wouldn't provide any
useful insight if/when such an instance happened, so don't
bother printing out that value.

efc73f4bbc net: Fix memory leak - vlan_info struct
In driver reload test there is a memory leak.
The structure vlan_info was not freed when the driver was removed.
It was not released since the nr_vids var is one after last vlan was removed.
The nr_vids is one, since vlan zero is added to the interface when the interface
is being set, but the vlan zero is not deleted at unregister.
Fix - delete vlan zero when we unregister the device.

51c5d0c4b1 tcp: Maintain dynamic metrics in local cache.
Maintain a local hash table of TCP dynamic metrics blobs.

Computed TCP metrics are no longer maintained in the route metrics.

The table uses RCU and an extremely simple hash so that it has low
latency and low overhead.  A simple hash is legitimate because we only
make metrics blobs for fully established connections.

Some tweaking of the default hash table sizes, metric timeouts, and
the hash chain length limit certainly could use some tweaking.  But
the basic design seems sound.

variable ends up pointing to an address at an offset from the list head,

10a9109f27 mac80211: destroy assoc_data correctly if assoc fails
If association failed due to internal error (e.g. no
supported rates IE), we call ieee80211_destroy_assoc_data()
with assoc=true, while we actually reject the association.

This results in the BSSID not being zeroed out.

After passing assoc=false, we no longer have to call
sta_info_destroy_addr() explicitly. While on it, move
the "associated" message after the assoc_success check.

b761c9b1f4 cgroup: fix panic in netprio_cgroup
we set max_prioidx to the first zero bit index of prioidx_map in
function get_prioidx.

So when we delete the low index netprio cgroup and adding a new
netprio cgroup again,the max_prioidx will be set to the low index.

when we set the high index cgroup's net_prio.ifpriomap,the function
write_priomap will call update_netdev_tables to alloc memory which
size is sizeof(struct netprio_map) + sizeof(u32) * (max_prioidx + 1),
so the size of array that map->priomap point to is max_prioidx +1,
which is low than what we actually need.

fix this by adding check in get_prioidx,only set max_prioidx when
max_prioidx low than the new prioidx.

960fb66e52 netem: add limitation to reordered packets
Fix two netem bugs :

1) When a frame was dropped by tfifo_enqueue(), drop counter
   was incremented twice.

2) When reordering is triggered, we enqueue a packet without
   checking queue limit. This can OOM pretty fast when this
   is repeated enough, since skbs are orphaned, no socket limit
   can help in this situation.

ed10627725 sctp: refactor sctp_packet_append_chunk and clenup some memory leaks
While doing some recent work on sctp sack bundling I noted that
sctp_packet_append_chunk was pretty inefficient.  Specifially, it was called
recursively while trying to bundle auth and sack chunks.  Because of that we
call sctp_packet_bundle_sack and sctp_packet_bundle_auth a total of 4 times for
every call to sctp_packet_append_chunk, knowing that at least 3 of those calls
will do nothing.

So lets refactor sctp_packet_bundle_auth to have an outer part that does the
attempted bundling, and an inner part that just does the chunk appends.  This
saves us several calls per iteration that we just don't need.

Also, noticed that the auth and sack bundling fail to free the chunks they
allocate if the append fails, so make sure we add that in

3da947b269 ieee802154: verify packet size before trying to allocate it
Currently when sending data over datagram, the send function will attempt to
allocate any size passed on from the userspace.

We should make sure that this size is checked and limited. We'll limit it
to the MTU of the device, which is checked later anyway.

f4530fa574 ipv4: Avoid overhead when no custom FIB rules are installed.
If the user hasn't actually installed any custom rules, or fiddled
with the default ones, don't go through the whole FIB rules layer.

It's just pure overhead.

Instead do what we do with CONFIG_IP_MULTIPLE_TABLES disabled, check
the individual tables by hand, one by one.

Also, move fib_num_tclassid_users into the ipv4 network namespace.

2d3f6ccc4e batman-adv: check incoming packet type for bla
If the gateway functionality is used, some broadcast packets (DHCP
requests) may be transmitted as unicast packets. As the bridge loop
avoidance code now only considers the payload Ethernet destination,
it may drop the DHCP request for clients which are claimed by other
backbone gateways, because it falsely infers from the broadcast address
that the right backbone gateway should havehandled the broadcast.

Fix this by checking and delegating the batman-adv packet type used
for transmission.

a2de86f63c ipv6: Initialize the neighbour pointer of rt6_info on allocation
git commit 97cac082 (ipv6: Store route neighbour in rt6_info struct)
added a neighbour pointer to rt6_info. Currently we don't initialize
this pointer at allocation time. We assume this pointer to be valid
if it is not a null pointer, so initialize it on allocation.

This reverts the commit cdf49c283e which
replaces lowpan '.ndo_set_mac_address' method by ethernet's one.

Accorind to the IEEE 802.15.4 standard, device has 8-byte length address,
so this hook loses the last 2 bytes which may rise a compatibility problems
with other IEEE 802.15.4 standard implementations.
