While trying to display real-time accounting statistics, we require
to pool the kernel periodically to obtain this information. This is
OK if the number of flows is relatively low. However, in case that
the number of flows is huge, we can spend a considerable amount of
cycles to iterate over the list of flows that have been obtained.
Moreover, if we want to obtain the sum of the flow accounting results
that match some criteria, we have to iterate over the whole list of
existing flows, look for matchings and update the counters.
This patch adds the extended accounting infrastructure for
nfnetlink which aims to allow displaying real-time traffic accounting
without the need of complicated and resource-consuming implementation
in user-space. Basically, this new infrastructure allows you to create
accounting objects. One accounting object is composed of packet and
byte counters.
In order to manipulate create accounting objects, you require the
new libnetfilter_acct library. It contains several examples of use:

"! --connbytes 23:42" should match if the packet/byte count is not in range.
As there is no explict "invert match" toggle in the match structure,
userspace swaps the from and to arguments
(i.e., as if "--connbytes 42:23" were given).
However, "what <= 23 && what >= 42" will always be false.
Change things so we use "||" in case "from" is larger than "to".
This change may look like it breaks backwards compatibility when "to" is 0.
However, older iptables binaries will refuse "connbytes 42:0",
and current releases treat it to mean "! --connbytes 0:42",
so we should be fine.

This patch removes the nf_ct_userspace_expect_list since now we
force to use the new iptables CT target feature to add the helper
extension for conntracks that have attached expectations from
userspace.
A new version of the proof-of-concept code to implement userspace
helpers from userspace is available at:
This patch also modifies the CT target to allow to set the
conntrack's userspace helper status flags. This flag is used
to tell the conntrack system to explicitly allocate the helper
extension.
This helper extension is useful to link the userspace expectations
with the master conntrack that is being tracked from one userspace
helper.
This feature fixes a problem in the current approach of the
userspace helper support. Basically, if the master conntrack that
has got a userspace expectation vanishes, the expectations point to
one invalid memory address. Thus, triggering an oops in the
expectation deletion event path.
I decided not to add a new revision of the CT target because
I only needed to add a new flag for it. I'll document in this
issue in the iptables manpage. I have also changed the return
value from EINVAL to EOPNOTSUPP if one flag not supported is
specified. Thus, in the future adding new features that only
require a new flag can be added without a new revision.
There is no official code using this in userspace (apart from
the proof-of-concept) that uses this infrastructure but there
will be some by beginning 2012.

sch_sfq: rehash queues in perturb timer
A known Out Of Order (OOO) problem hurts SFQ when timer changes
perturbation value, since all new packets delivered to SFQ enqueue might
end on different slots than previous in-flight packets.
With round robin delivery, we can thus deliver packets in a different
order.
Since SFQ is limited to small amount of in-flight packets, we can rehash
packets so that this OOO problem is fixed.
This rehashing is performed only if internal flow classifier is in use.
We now store in skb->cb[] the "struct flow_keys" so that we dont call
skb_flow_dissect() again while rehashing.

sctp: Do not account for sizeof(struct sk_buff) in estimated rwnd
When checking whether a DATA chunk fits into the estimated rwnd a
full sizeof(struct sk_buff) is added to the needed chunk size. This
quickly exhausts the available rwnd space and leads to packets being
sent which are much below the PMTU limit. This can lead to much worse
performance.
The reason for this behaviour was to avoid putting too much memory
pressure on the receiver. The concept is not completely irational
because a Linux receiver does in fact clone an skb for each DATA chunk
delivered. However, Linux also reserves half the available socket
buffer space for data structures therefore usage of it is already
accounted for.
When proposing to change this the last time it was noted that this
behaviour was introduced to solve a performance issue caused by rwnd
overusage in combination with small DATA chunks.
Trying to reproduce this I found that with the sk_buff overhead removed,
the performance would improve significantly unless socket buffer limits
are increased.
The following numbers have been gathered using a patched iperf
supporting SCTP over a live 1 Gbit ethernet network. The -l option
was used to limit DATA chunk sizes. The numbers listed are based on
the average of 3 test runs each. Default values have been used for
sk_(r|w)mem.

binary_sysctl() calls sysctl_getname() which allocates from names_cache
slab usin __getname()
The matching function to free the name is __putname(), and not putname()
which should be used only to match getname() allocations.
This is because when auditing is enabled, putname() calls audit_putname
*instead* (not in addition) to __putname(). Then, if a syscall is in
progress, audit_putname does not release the name - instead, it expects
the name to get released when the syscall completes, but that will happen
only if audit_getname() was called previously, i.e. if the name was
allocated with getname() rather than the naked __getname(). So,
__getname() followed by putname() ends up leaking memory.

where the oom score computation was divided into several steps and it's no
longer computed as one expression in unsigned long(rss, swapents, nr_pte
are unsigned long), where the result value assigned to points(int) is in
range(1..1000). So there could be an int overflow while computing
176 points *= 1000;
and points may have negative value. Meaning the oom score for a mem hog task
will be one.
196 if (points <= 0)
197 return 1;
For example:
[ 3366] 0 3366 3539048024303939 5 0 0 oom01
Out of memory: Kill process 3366 (oom01) score 1 or sacrifice child
Here the oom1 process consumes more than 24303939(rss)*4096~=92GB physical
memory, but it's oom score is one.
In this situation the mem hog task is skipped and oom killer kills another and
most probably innocent task with oom score greater than one.
The points variable should be of type long instead of int to prevent the
int overflow.

nilfs2: potential integer overflow in nilfs_ioctl_clean_segments()
There is a potential integer overflow in nilfs_ioctl_clean_segments().
When a large argv[n].v_nmembs is passed from the userspace, the subsequent
call to vmalloc() will allocate a buffer smaller than expected, which
leads to out-of-bound access in nilfs_ioctl_move_blocks() and
lfs_clean_segments().
The following check does not prevent the overflow because nsegs is also
controlled by the userspace and could be very large.
if (argv[n].v_nmembs > nsegs * nilfs->ns_blocks_per_segment)

This patch clamps argv[n].v_nmembs to UINT_MAX / argv[n].v_size, and

cpusets: stall when updating mems_allowed for mempolicy or disjoint nodemask
Kernels where MAX_NUMNODES > BITS_PER_LONG may temporarily see an empty
nodemask in a tsk's mempolicy if its previous nodemask is remapped onto a
new set of allowed cpuset nodes where the two nodemasks, as a result of
the remap, are now disjoint.
c0ff7453bb5c ("cpuset,mm: fix no node to alloc memory when changing
cpuset's mems") adds get_mems_allowed() to prevent the set of allowed
nodes from changing for a thread. This causes any update to a set of
allowed nodes to stall until put_mems_allowed() is called.
This stall is unncessary, however, if at least one node remains unchanged
in the update to the set of allowed nodes. This was addressed by 89e8a244b97e ("cpusets: avoid looping when storing to mems_allowed if one
node remains set"), but it's still possible that an empty nodemask may be
read from a mempolicy because the old nodemask may be remapped to the new
nodemask during rebind. To prevent this, only avoid the stall if there is
no mempolicy for the thread being changed.
This is a temporary solution until all reads from mempolicy nodemasks can
be guaranteed to not be empty without the get_mems_allowed()
synchronization.
Also moves the check for nodemask intersection inside task_lock() so that
tsk->mems_allowed cannot change. This ensures that nothing can set this
tsk's mems_allowed out from under us and also protects tsk->mempolicy.
