2f4e1b3970 tcp: ioctl type SIOCOUTQNSD returns amount of data not sent
In contrast to SIOCOUTQ which returns the amount of data sent
but not yet acknowledged plus data not yet sent this patch only
returns the data not sent.

For various methods of live streaming bitrate control it may
be helpful to know how much data are in the tcp outqueue are
not sent yet.

6c91afe1a9 ipv4: Fix erroneous uses of ifa_address.
In usual cases ifa_address == ifa_local, but in the case where
SIOCSIFDSTADDR sets the destination address on a point-to-point
link, ifa_address gets set to that destination address.

Therefore we should use ifa_local when we want the local interface
address.

There were two cases where the selection was done incorrectly:

1) When devinet_ioctl() does matching, it checks ifa_address even
   though gifconf correct reported ifa_local to the user

2) IN_DEV_ARP_NOTIFY handling sends a gratuitous ARP using
   ifa_address instead of ifa_local.

4d9d88d121 net/wireless: add COUNTRY to to regulatory device uevent
Regulatory devices issue change uevents to inform userspace of a need
to call the crda tool; however these can often be sent before udevd is
running, and were not previously included in the results of
udevadm trigger (which requests a new change event using the /uevent
attribute of the sysfs object).

Add a uevent function to the device type which includes the COUNTRY
information from the last request if it has yet to be processed, the
case of multiple requests is already handled in the code by checking
whether an unprocessed one is queued in the same manner and refusing
to queue a new one.

The existing udev rule continues to work as before.

a015f6f499 Phonet: kill the ST-Ericsson pipe controller Kconfig
This is now a run-time choice so that a single kernel can support both
old and new generation ISI modems. Support for manually enabling the
pipe flow is removed as it did not work properly, does not fit well
with the socket API, and I am not aware of any use at the moment.

297edb6003 Phonet: support active connection without pipe controller on modem
This provides support for newer ISI modems with no need for the
earlier experimental compile-time alternative choice. With this,
we can now use the same kernel and userspace with both types of
modems.

This also avoids confusing two different and incompatible state
machines, actively connected vs accepted sockets, and adds
connection response error handling (processing "SYN/RST" of sorts).

acaf7df610 Phonet: provide pipe socket option to retrieve the pipe identifier
User-space sometimes needs this information. In particular, the GPRS
context or the AT commands pipe setups may use the pipe handle as a
reference.

This removes the settable pipe handle with CONFIG_PHONET_PIPECTRLR.
It did not handle error cases correctly. Furthermore, the kernel
*could* implement a smart scheme for allocating handles (if ever
needed), but userspace really cannot.

c69d4407d8 Phonet: fix NULL dereference on TX path with implicit source
The previous Phonet patch series introduced per-socket implicit
destination (i.e. connect()). In that case, the destination
socket address is NULL in the transmit function.
However commit a8059512b120362b15424f152b2548fe8b11bd0c
("Phonet: implement per-socket destination/peer address")
is incomplete and would trigger a NULL dereference.
(Fortunately, the code is not in released kernel, and in fact
 currently not reachable.)

adb00ae2ea netfilter: x_tables: misuse of try_then_request_module
Since xt_find_match() returns ERR_PTR(xx) on error not NULL,
the macro try_then_request_module won't work correctly here.
The macro expects its first argument will be zero if condition
fails. But ERR_PTR(-ENOENT) is not zero.

The correct solution is to propagate the error value
back.

Found by inspection, and compile tested only.

1fc050a134 ipv4: Cache source address in nexthop entries.
When doing output route lookups, we have to select the source address
if the user has not specified an explicit one.

First, if the route has an explicit preferred source address
specified, then we use that.

Otherwise we search the route's outgoing interface for a suitable
address.

This search can be precomputed and cached at route insertion time.

The only missing part is that we have to refresh this precomputed
value any time addresses are added or removed from the interface, and
this is accomplished by fib_update_nh_saddrs().

b3ca9b02b0 net: fix multithreaded signal handling in unix recv routines
The unix_dgram_recvmsg and unix_stream_recvmsg routines in
net/af_unix.c utilize mutex_lock(&u->readlock) calls in order to
serialize read operations of multiple threads on a single socket. This
implies that, if all n threads of a process block in an AF_UNIX recv
call trying to read data from the same socket, one of these threads
will be sleeping in state TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE and all others in state
TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE. Provided that a particular signal is supposed to
be handled by a signal handler defined by the process and that none of
this threads is blocking the signal, the complete_signal routine in
kernel/signal.c will select the 'first' such thread it happens to
encounter when deciding which thread to notify that a signal is
supposed to be handled and if this is one of the TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE
threads, the signal won't be handled until the one thread not blocking
on the u->readlock mutex is woken up because some data to process has
arrived (if this ever happens). The included patch fixes this by
changing mutex_lock to mutex_lock_interruptible and handling possible
error returns in the same way interruptions are handled by the actual
receive-code.

e44d8fe2b5 batman-adv: Disallow regular interface as mesh device
When trying to associate a net_device with another net_device which
already exists, batman-adv assumes that this interface is a fully
initialized batman mesh interface without checking it. The behaviour
when accessing data behind netdev_priv of a random net_device is
undefined and potentially dangerous.

4389e47af8 batman-adv: rename global if_list to hardif_list
Batman-adv works with "hard interfaces" as well as "soft interfaces".
The new name should better make clear which kind of interfaces this
list stores.

7b36e8eef9 batman-adv: Correct rcu refcounting for orig_node
It might be possible that 2 threads access the same data in the same
rcu grace period. The first thread calls call_rcu() to decrement the
refcount and free the data while the second thread increases the
refcount to use the data. To avoid this race condition all refcount
operations have to be atomic.

9e0b33c221 batman-adv: Fix possible buffer overflow in softif neigh list output
When printing the soft interface table the number of entries in the
softif neigh list are first being counted and a fitting buffer
allocated. After that the softif neigh list gets locked again and
the buffer printed - which has the following two issues:

For one thing, the softif neigh list might have grown when reacquiring
the rcu lock, which results in writing outside of the allocated buffer.
Furthermore 31 Bytes are not enough for printing an entry with a vid
of more than 2 digits.

The manual buffering is unnecessary, we can safely print to the seq
directly during the rcu_read_lock().

43c70ad5ce batman-adv: Increase orig_node refcount before releasing rcu read lock
When unicast_send_skb() is increasing the orig_node's refcount another
thread might have been freeing this orig_node already. We need to
increase the refcount in the rcu read lock protected area to avoid that.
