* [IPV6]: Fix the return value of ipv6_getsockoptWei Yongjun2007-12-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | If CONFIG_NETFILTER if not selected when compile the kernel source code, ipv6_getsockopt will returen an EINVAL error if optname is not supported by the kernel. But if CONFIG_NETFILTER is selected, ENOPROTOOPT error will be return. This patch fix to always return ENOPROTOOPT error if optname argument of ipv6_getsockopt is not supported by the kernel.

* [BRIDGE]: Assign random address.Stephen Hemminger2007-12-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Assigning a valid random address to bridge device solves problems when bridge device is brought up before adding real device to bridge. When the first real device is added to the bridge, it's address will overide the bridges random address. Note: any device added to a bridge must already have a valid ethernet address. br_add_if -> br_fdb_insert -> fdb_insert -> is_valid_ether_addr Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

* [IPV4]: Updates to nfsroot documentationAmos Waterland2007-12-14
| | | | | | | | | | | The difference between ip=off and ip=::::::off has been a cause of much confusion. Document how each behaves, and do not contradict ourselves by saying that "off" is the default when in fact "any" is the default and is descibed as being so lower in the file.

* [NETFILTER]: bridge: fix missing link layer headers on outgoing routed packetsPatrick McHardy2007-12-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As reported by Damien Thebault, the double POSTROUTING hook invocation fix caused outgoing packets routed between two bridges to appear without a link-layer header. The reason for this is that we're skipping the br_nf_post_routing hook for routed packets now and don't save the original link layer header, but nevertheless tries to restore it on output, causing corruption. The root cause for this is that skb->nf_bridge has no clearly defined lifetime and is used to indicate all kind of things, but that is quite complicated to fix. For now simply don't touch these packets and handle them like packets from any other device.

* [NETFILTER]: ip_tables: fix compat copy racePatrick McHardy2007-12-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When copying entries to user, the kernel makes two passes through the data, first copying all the entries, then fixing up names and counters. On the second pass it copies the kernel and match data from userspace to the kernel again to find the corresponding structures, expecting that kernel pointers contained in the data are still valid. This is obviously broken, fix by avoiding the second pass completely and fixing names and counters while dumping the ruleset, using the kernel-internal data structures.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch against 2.6.23 sparc-2.6.git contains a number of minor cleanups of the sparc serial drivers. Initially I fixed this build warning: WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x107a2c): Section mismatch: reference to .init.text:add_preferred_console (between 'sunserial_console_match' and 'sunserial_console_termios') which is done by declaring sunserial_console_match() as __init. This resulted in build warnings on sunserial_current_minor. To resolve these the variable was changed so it is no longer global, and to hide operations on it inside 2 new functions. These functions handle the UART minor handling code that is common to all sparc serial drivers. These changes allowed to clean up the uart counters in all the sparc serial drivers, and the administration of minor device numbers. Lastly, sunserial_console_termios() does not need to be exported since it is only called from non-modular code. Sadly, the following build warning still exists: WARNING: vmlinux.o(__ksymtab+0x2910): Section mismatch: reference to .init.text:sunserial_console_match (between '__ksymtab_sunserial_console_match' and '__ksymtab_sunserial_unregister_minors') This could be resolved by not exporting sunserial_console_match(), but this is not possible at the moment because it is being called from modular code. On the other hand, this is a bogus warning since it comes from a ksymtab section. Signed-off-by: Martin Habets <errandir_news@mph.eclipse.co.uk> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

* V4L/DVB (6690): saa7134: fix ignored interruptsHeikki Lindholm2007-12-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | The saa7134 video driver starts dropping frames when used together with the saa7134-alsa driver. Frames are dropped because when an audio event is waiting the driver simply ignores the interrupt and passes it on to the saa7134-alsa interrupt handler. The alsa interrupt handler in turn acknowledges all types of events thus clearing the pending video events as well. Fix by only masking out the audio event in the video interrupt handler and by only acknowledging the audio event in the alsa driver.

I think, that we must first close the vlan ioctl and only after this remove all the vlans with the vlan_netlink_fini() call.
