[IPCONFIG]: The kernel gets no IP from some DHCP servers
From: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@linux-foundation.org>

Based upon a patch by Marcel Wappler:
 
   This patch fixes a DHCP issue of the kernel: some DHCP servers
   (i.e.  in the Linksys WRT54Gv5) are very strict about the contents
   of the DHCPDISCOVER packet they receive from clients.
 
   Table 5 in RFC2131 page 36 requests the fields 'ciaddr' and
   'siaddr' MUST be set to '0'.  These DHCP servers ignore Linux
   kernel's DHCP discovery packets with these two fields set to
   '255.255.255.255' (in contrast to popular DHCP clients, such as
   'dhclient' or 'udhcpc').  This leads to a not booting system.

rc80211-pid: fix rate adjustment
Merge rate_control_pid_shift_adjust() to rate_control_pid_adjust_rate()
in order to make the learning algorithm aware of constraints on rates. Also
add some comments and rename variables.

This fixes a bug which prevented 802.11b/g non-AP STAs from working with
802.11b only AP STAs.

This patch was originally destined for 2.6.26, and is being backported
to fix a user reported problem in post-2.6.24 kernels.

[NETPOLL]: Revert two bogus cleanups that broke netconsole.
Based upon a report by Andrew Morton and code analysis done
by Jarek Poplawski.

This reverts 33f807ba0d ("[NETPOLL]:
Kill NETPOLL_RX_DROP, set but never tested.")  and
c7b6ea24b4 ("[NETPOLL]: Don't need
rx_flags.").

The rx_flags did get tested for zero vs. non-zero and therefore we do
need those tests and that code which sets NETPOLL_RX_DROP et al.

[SCTP]: Clean up naming conventions of sctp protocol/address family registration
I noticed while looking into some odd behavior in sctp, that the variable
name sctp_pf_inet6_specific was used twice to represent two different
pieces of data (its both a structure name and a pointer to that type of
structure), which is confusing to say the least, and potentially dangerous
depending on the variable scope.  This patch cleans that up, and makes the
protocol and address family registration names in SCTP more regular,
increasing readability.

[IPCOMP]: Disable BH on output when using shared tfm
Because we use shared tfm objects in order to conserve memory,
(each tfm requires 128K of vmalloc memory), BH needs to be turned
off on output as that can occur in process context.

Previously this was done implicitly by the xfrm output code.
That was lost when it became lockless.  So we need to add the
BH disabling to IPComp directly.

[INET]: Don't create tunnels with '%' in name.
Four tunnel drivers (ip_gre, ipip, ip6_tunnel and sit) can receive a
pre-defined name for a device from the userspace.  Since these drivers
call the register_netdevice() (rtnl_lock, is held), which does _not_
generate the device's name, this name may contain a '%' character.

Not sure how bad is this to have a device with a '%' in its name, but
all the other places either use the register_netdev(), which call the
dev_alloc_name(), or explicitly call the dev_alloc_name() before
registering, i.e. do not allow for such names.

This had to be prior to the commit 34cc7b, but I forgot to number the
patches and this one got lost, sorry.

[IPV4]: Reset scope when changing address
This bug did bite at least one user, who did have to resort to rebooting
the system after an "ifconfig eth0 127.0.0.1" typo.

Deleting the address and adding a new is a less intrusive workaround.
But I still beleive this is a bug that should be fixed.  Some way or
another.

Another possibility would be to remove the scope mangling based on
address.  This will always be incomplete (are 127/8 the only address
space with host scope requirements?)

We set the scope to RT_SCOPE_HOST if an IPv4 interface is configured
with a loopback address (127/8).  The scope is never reset, and will
remain set to RT_SCOPE_HOST after changing the address. This patch
resets the scope if the address is changed again, to restore normal
functionality.

[IP_TUNNEL]: Don't limit the number of tunnels with generic name explicitly.
Use the added dev_alloc_name() call to create tunnel device name,
rather than iterate in a hand-made loop with an artificial limit.

Thanks Patrick for noticing this.

[ The way this works is, when the device is actually registered,
  the generic code noticed the '%' in the name and invokes
  dev_alloc_name() to fully resolve the name.  -DaveM ]

[NET]: Restore sanity wrt. print_mac().
MAC_FMT had only one user and we tried to get rid of
that, but this created more problems than it solved.

As a result, this reverts three commits:

235365f3aa ("net/8021q/vlan_dev.c: Use
print_mac."), fea5fa875e ("[NET]: Remove
MAC_FMT"), and 8f789c4844 ("[NET]:
Elminate spurious print_mac() calls.")

[NEIGH]: Fix race between neighbor lookup and table's hash_rnd update.
The neigh_hash_grow() may update the tbl->hash_rnd value, which 
is used in all tbl->hash callbacks to calculate the hashval.

Two lookup routines may race with this, since they call the 
->hash callback without the tbl->lock held. Since the hash_rnd
is changed with this lock write-locked moving the calls to ->hash
under this lock read-locked closes this gap.

[RTNL]: Validate hardware and broadcast address attribute for RTM_NEWLINK
RTM_NEWLINK allows for already existing links to be modified. For this
purpose do_setlink() is called which expects address attributes with a
payload length of at least dev->addr_len. This patch adds the necessary
validation for the RTM_NEWLINK case.

The address length for links to be created is not checked for now as the
actual attribute length is used when copying the address to the netdevice
structure. It might make sense to report an error if less than addr_len
bytes are provided but enforcing this might break drivers trying to be
smart with not transmitting all zero addresses.

PM: Introduce PM_EVENT_HIBERNATE callback state
During the last step of hibernation in the "platform" mode (with the
help of ACPI) we use the suspend code, including the devices'
->suspend() methods, to prepare the system for entering the ACPI S4
system sleep state.

But at least for some devices the operations performed by the
->suspend() callback in that case must be different from its operations
during regular suspend.

For this reason, introduce the new PM event type PM_EVENT_HIBERNATE and
pass it to the device drivers' ->suspend() methods during the last phase
of hibernation, so that they can distinguish this case and handle it as
appropriate.  Modify the drivers that handle PM_EVENT_SUSPEND in a
special way and need to handle PM_EVENT_HIBERNATE in the same way.

These changes are necessary to fix a hibernation regression related
to the i915 driver (ref. http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/2/22/488).
