2008-10-06mac80211: avoid "Wireless Event too big" message for assoc responsemaster-2008-10-06John W. Linville
The association response IEs are sent to userland with an IWEVCUSTOM event, which unfortunately is limited to a little more than 100 bytes of IE information with the encoding used. Many APs send so much IE information that this message overflows. When the IWEVCUSTOM event is too large, the kernel doesn't send it to userland anyway -- better just not to send it. An attempt was made by Jouni Malinen to correct this issue by converting to use IWEVASSOCREQIE and IWEVASSOCRESPIE messages instead ("mac80211: Use IWEVASSOCREQIE instead of IWEVCUSTOM"). Unfortunately, that caused a problem due to 32-/64-bit interactions on some systems and was reverted after the 'userland ABI' rule was invoked. That leaves us with this option instead of a proper fix, at least until we move to a cfg80211-based solution. Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

2008-10-06rfkill: update LEDs for all state changesHenrique de Moraes Holschuh
The LED state was not being updated by rfkill_force_state(), which will cause regressions in wireless drivers that had old-style rfkill support and are updated to use rfkill_force_state(). The LED state was not being updated when a change was detected through the rfkill->get_state() hook, either. Move the LED trigger update calls into notify_rfkill_state_change(), where it should have been in the first place. This takes care of both issues above.

2008-10-06mac80211: remove redundant check in ieee80211_master_start_xmit ↵Rami Rosen
(net/mac80211/tx.c) - This patch (against the linux-wireless-next git tree) removes a redundant check in ieee80211_master_start_xmit (net/mac80211/tx.c) and adjust indentation in this method accordingly. In this method, there is no need to call again the ieee80211_is_data() method; this is checked immediately before, in the "if" command (we will not enter this block unless ieee80211_is_data() is true, so that the "and" (&&) condition in that "if" command will be fullfilled ).

This enables Adaptive Noise Immunity (ANI) on ath9k. ANI is as algorithm designed to minimize the detrimental effects of time-varying interferences. This should help with throughput in noisy environments. To use ANI we re-enable the MIB interrupt.

2008-10-01sctp: Fix to start T5-shutdown-guard timer while enter SHUTDOWN-SENT stateWei Yongjun
RFC 4960: Section 9.2 The sender of the SHUTDOWN MAY also start an overall guard timer 'T5-shutdown-guard' to bound the overall time for the shutdown sequence. At the expiration of this timer, the sender SHOULD abort the association by sending an ABORT chunk. If the 'T5-shutdown- guard' timer is used, it SHOULD be set to the recommended value of 5 times 'RTO.Max'. The timer 'T5-shutdown-guard' is used to counter the overall time for shutdown sequence, and it's start by the sender of the SHUTDOWN. So timer 'T5-shutdown-guard' should be start when we send the first SHUTDOWN chunk and enter the SHUTDOWN-SENT state, not start when we receipt of the SHUTDOWN primitive and enter SHUTDOWN-PENDING state. If 'T5-shutdown-guard' timer is start at SHUTDOWN-PENDING state, the association may be ABORT while data is still transmitting.

2008-10-01sctp: try harder to figure out address family when checking wildcardsVlad Yasevich
sctp_is_any() function that is used to check for wildcard addresses only looks at the address itself to determine the address family. This function is used in the API to check the address passed in from the user. If the user simply zerroes out the sockaddr_storage and pass that in, we'll end up failing. So, let's try harder to determine the address family by also checking the socket if it's possible. Signed-off-by: Vlad Yasevich <vladislav.yasevich@hp.com>

2008-10-01tcp: Port redirection support for TCPKOVACS Krisztian
Current TCP code relies on the local port of the listening socket being the same as the destination address of the incoming connection. Port redirection used by many transparent proxying techniques obviously breaks this, so we have to store the original destination port address. This patch extends struct inet_request_sock and stores the incoming destination port value there. It also modifies the handshake code to use that value as the source port when sending reply packets.

2008-10-01tcp: Handle TCP SYN+ACK/ACK/RST transparencyKOVACS Krisztian
The TCP stack sends out SYN+ACK/ACK/RST reply packets in response to incoming packets. The non-local source address check on output bites us again, as replies for transparently redirected traffic won't have a chance to leave the node. This patch selectively sets the FLOWI_FLAG_ANYSRC flag when doing the route lookup for those replies. Transparent replies are enabled if the listening socket has the transparent socket flag set.

2008-10-01ipsec: Put dumpers on the dump listHerbert Xu
Herbert Xu came up with the idea and the original patch to make xfrm_state dump list contain also dumpers: As it is we go to extraordinary lengths to ensure that states don't go away while dumpers go to sleep. It's much easier if we just put the dumpers themselves on the list since they can't go away while they're going. I've also changed the order of addition on new states to prevent a never-ending dump. Timo Teräs improved the patch to apply cleanly to latest tree, modified iteration code to be more readable by using a common struct for entries in the list, implemented the same idea for xfrm_policy dumping and moved the af_key specific "last" entry caching to af_key.
