commit f7a1dd6e3ad59f0cfd51da29dfdbfd54122c5916 upstream.

The reason for this patch is crash in kmemdup
caused by returning from get_callid with uniialized
matchoff and matchlen.

Removing Zero check of matchlen since it's done by ct_sip_get_header()

commit 990de49f74e772b6db5208457b7aa712a5f4db86 upstream.

When a full scan 2.4 and 5 GHz scan is scheduled, but then the 2.4 GHz
part of the scan disables a 5.2 GHz channel due to, e.g. receiving
country or frequency information, that 5.2 GHz channel might already
be in the list of channels to scan next. Then, when the driver checks
if it should do a passive scan, that will return false and attempt an
active scan. This is not only wrong but can also lead to the iwlwifi
device firmware crashing since it checks regulatory as well.

Fix this by not setting the channel flags to just disabled but rather
OR'ing in the disabled flag. That way, even if the race happens, the
channel will be scanned passively which is still (mostly) correct.

commit 8ceb59557bdc373e532b87d4142ce27e04218f0e upstream.

The RCU docs used to state that rcu_barrier() included a wait
for an RCU grace period; however the comments for rcu_barrier()
as of commit f0a0e6f... "rcu: Clarify memory-ordering properties
of grace-period primitives" contradict this.

So add back synchronize_{rcu,net}() to where they once were,
but keep the rcu_barrier()s for the call_rcu() callbacks.

<title>mac80211: fix station entry leak/warning while suspending</title>

commit b20d34c458bc2bbd0a4624f2933581e01e72d875 upstream.

Since Stanislaw's patches, when suspending while connected,
cfg80211 will disconnect. This causes the AP station to be
removed, which uses call_rcu() to clean up. Due to needing
process context, this queues a work struct on the mac80211
workqueue. This will warn and fail when already suspended,
which can happen if the rcu call doesn't happen quickly.

To fix this, replace the synchronize_net() which is really
just synchronize_rcu_expedited() with rcu_barrier(), which
unlike synchronize_rcu() waits until RCU callback have run
and thus avoids this issue.

In theory, this can even happen without Stanislaw's change
to disconnect on suspend since userspace might disconnect
just before suspending, though then it's unlikely that the
call_rcu() will be delayed long enough.

If one does do something unfortunate and allow a
bad offload bug into the kernel, this the
skb_warn_bad_offload can effectively live-lock the
system, filling the logs with the same error over
and over.

Add rate limitation to this so that box remains otherwise

The "reason" can come from skb-&gt;data[] and it hasn't been capped so it
can be from 0-255 instead of just 0-6.  For example in irlmp_state_dtr()
the code does:

	reason = skb-&gt;data[3];
	...
	irlmp_disconnect_indication(self, reason, skb);

Also LMREASON has a couple other values which don't have entries in the
irlmp_reasons[] array.  And 0xff is a valid reason as well which means
"unknown".

So far as I can see we don't actually care about "reason" except for in
the debug code.

So far as I can see we don't actually care about "reason" except for in
the debug code.

====================
If time allows, please consider pulling the following patchset contains two
late Netfilter fixes, they are:

* Skip broadcast/multicast locally generated traffic in the rpfilter,
  (closes netfilter bugzilla #814), from Florian Westphal.

* Fix missing elements in the listing of ipset bitmap ip,mac set
  type with timeout support enabled, from Jozsef Kadlecsik.

====================
A few stragglers hoping for 3.9, somewhat delayed due to my travels...

On the mac80211 bits, Johannes says:

"Sadly, I have another pull request -- the idle handling fix broke LED
handling in some cases."

and:

"Yet one more!

This fixes a fairly important/annoying bug -- when roaming between
multiple APs of the same network, the system could get stuck thinking it
was connected to the old one while it really wasn't."

On top of that...

Arend sends a brcmfmac patch that removes advertising a feature that
isn't actually fully supported, and a brcmsmac patch that rearranges
code to request firmware at IFF_UP to play more nicely with being
built into the kernel.

Felix gives us a minor ath9k_htc fix to support the newly released
open source firmware, and an ath9k_hw initvals fix to improve device
stability.

Rafał Miłecki provides a fix for an ssb regression that caused a
serious performance problem with b43.

Zefir Kurtisi offers an ath9k fix to change some kmalloc flags to
allow the DFS detector to be called in softirq context.

Please let me know if there are problems.  If these don't make 3.9,
I'll just pull them into wireless-next -- just let me know if you
want to do it that way!

<title>tcp: call tcp_replace_ts_recent() from tcp_ack()</title>

<content type='text'>
commit bd090dfc634d (tcp: tcp_replace_ts_recent() should not be called
from tcp_validate_incoming()) introduced a TS ecr bug in slow path
processing.

1 A &gt; B P. 1:10001(10000) ack 1 &lt;nop,nop,TS val 1001 ecr 200&gt;
2 B &lt; A . 1:1(0) ack 1 win 257 &lt;sack 9001:10001,TS val 300 ecr 1001&gt;
3 A &gt; B . 1:1001(1000) ack 1 win 227 &lt;nop,nop,TS val 1002 ecr 200&gt;
4 A &gt; B . 1001:2001(1000) ack 1 win 227 &lt;nop,nop,TS val 1002 ecr 200&gt;

(ecr 200 should be ecr 300 in packets 3 &amp; 4)

Problem is tcp_ack() can trigger send of new packets (retransmits),
reflecting the prior TSval, instead of the TSval contained in the
currently processed incoming packet.

Fix this by calling tcp_replace_ts_recent() from tcp_ack() after the
checks, but before the actions.
