Avast, ye scurvy land-lubbers! Time to try out a new release. Arrr!

Make fsnotify possibly work better for the inode removal case

Checking i_nlink is dubious, but the alternatives look even less appetizing. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

[PATCH] raw_sendmsg DoS on 2.6

2005-09-20T01:45:42+00:00

Fix unchecked __get_user that could be tricked into generating a memory read on an arbitrary address. The result of the read is not returned directly but you may be able to divine some information about it, or use the read to cause a crash on some architectures by reading hardware state. CAN-2004-2492. Fix from Al Viro, ack from Dave Miller. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

[TCP]: Handle SACK'd packets properly in tcp_fragment().

2005-09-20T01:18:38+00:00

The problem is that we're now calling tcp_fragment() in a context where the packets might be marked as SACKED_ACKED or SACKED_RETRANS. This was not possible before as you never retransmitted packets that are so marked. Because of this, we need to adjust sacked_out and retrans_out in tcp_fragment(). This is exactly what the following patch does. We also need to preserve the SACKED_ACKED/SACKED_RETRANS marking if they exist. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

[WAN] hdlc_cisco: Fix regression introduced by skb->tail changes.

2005-09-19T22:39:32+00:00

The following commit breaks cisco mode with my WAN drivers: author David S. Miller Tue, 28 Jun 2005 22:25:31 +0000 (15:25 -0700) commit 689be43945e9ca7dd704522e55af1b8a73a994d3 "[NET]: Remove gratuitous use of skb->tail in network drivers." The following patch fixes it - please apply (cisco_hard_header does skb_push(4 bytes)). Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

[NETFILTER]: Export ip_nat_port_{nfattr_to_range,range_to_nfattr}

2005-09-19T22:35:57+00:00

Those exports are needed by the PPTP helper following in the next couple of changes. Signed-off-by: Harald Welte Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

[NETFILTER]: Rename misnamed function

2005-09-19T22:35:31+00:00

Both __ip_conntrack_expect_find and ip_conntrack_expect_find_get take a reference to the expectation, the difference is that callers of __ip_conntrack_expect_find must hold ip_conntrack_lock. Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy Signed-off-by: Harald Welte Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

[NETFILTER] ip6tables: remove duplicate code

2005-09-19T22:34:40+00:00

Some IPv6 matches have very similar loops to find IPv6 extension header and we can unify them. This patch introduces ipv6_find_hdr() to do it. I just checked that it can find the target headers in the packet which has dst,hbh,rt,frag,ah,esp headers. Signed-off-by: Yasuyuki Kozakai Signed-off-by: Harald Welte Signed-off-by: David S. Miller
