This patch address some IBSS rate issues introduced or not covered
by "mac80211: eliminate IBSS warning in rate_lowest_index()" and
"cfg80211 API for channels/bitrates, mac80211 and driver conversion".
This patch:
1. Moves addition of IBSS station from
prepare_for_handlers to ieee80211_rx_bss_info when triggered from beacon
eliminating bogus supported rates.
2. Initialize properly supported rates also in IBSS merging
3. Ensure that mandatory rates are always added into supported
rates. This is needed in case when station addition is triggered from
non beacon/probe packet. Some management frames need to be sent
4. Remove initialization of supported rates from self rates. This path
was dead code after 6bc37c06bc4 and in general incorrect.

mac80211: eliminate IBSS warning in rate_lowest_index()
An IBSS station is added in prepare_for_handlers where the rate scaling was
initialized only with single rate matching the received packet.
The correct rate scale information should be updated only in
ieee80211_rx_bss_info function where beacon is parsed. Because
of coding error the rate info was left untouched.
If a beacon has triggered the connection the rate remined 1Mbps.
This patch fixes this coding error

It is obviously good for userspace to know up front which
interface modes a given piece of hardware might support (even
if adding such an interface might fail later because of
concurrency issues), so let's make cfg80211 aware of that.
For good measure, disallow adding interfaces in all other
modes so drivers don't forget to announce support for one mode
when they add it.

Use qdisc_root_sleeping_lock() instead of qdisc_root_lock() where
appropriate. The only difference is while dev is deactivated, when
currently we can use a sleeping qdisc with the lock of noop_qdisc.
This shouldn't be dangerous since after deactivation root lock could
be used only by gen_estimator code, but looks wrong anyway.

On most systems most of the TCP established/time-wait hash buckets are empty.
When walking the hash table for /proc/net/tcp their read locks would
always be aquired just to find out they're empty. This patch changes the code
to check first if the buckets have any entries before taking the lock, which
is much cheaper than taking a lock. Since the hash tables are large
this makes a measurable difference on processing /proc/net/tcp,
especially on architectures with slow read_lock (e.g. PPC)
On a 2GB Core2 system time cat /proc/net/tcp > /dev/null (with a mostly
empty hash table) goes from 0.046s to 0.005s.
On systems with slower atomics (like P4 or POWER4) or larger hash tables
(more RAM) the difference is much higher.
This can be noticeable because there are some daemons around who regularly
scan /proc/net/tcp.
Original idea for this patch from Marcus Meissner, but redone by me.

This sets the sysfs permissions so that root can toggle the `debug'
parameter available for nearly every DCCP module. This is useful
since there are various module inter-dependencies. The debug flag
can now be toggled at runtime using
echo 1 > /sys/module/dccp/parameters/dccp_debug
echo 1 > /sys/module/dccp_ccid2/parameters/ccid2_debug
echo 1 > /sys/module/dccp_ccid3/parameters/ccid3_debug

dccp_disconnect() can be called due to several reasons:
1. when the connection setup failed (inet_stream_connect());
2. when shutting down (inet_shutdown(), inet_csk_listen_stop());
3. when aborting the connection (dccp_close() with 0 linger time).
In case (1) the write queue is empty. This patch empties the write queue,
if in case (2) or (3) it was not yet empty.
This avoids triggering the write-queue BUG_TRAP in sk_stream_kill_queues()
later on.
It also seems natural to do: when breaking an association, to delete all
packets that were originally intended for the soon-disconnected end (compare
with call to tcp_write_queue_purge in tcp_disconnect()).

This updates the use of the `out_invalid_option' label, which produces a

This updates the option-parsing code with regard to RFC 4340, 5.8:
"[..] options with nonsensical lengths (length byte less than two or more
than the remaining space in the options portion of the header) MUST be
ignored, and any option space following an option with nonsensical length
MUST likewise be ignored."
Hence in the following cases erratic options will be ignored:
1. The type byte of a multi-byte option is the last byte of the header
options (i.e. effective option length of 1).
2. The value of the length byte is less than the minimum 2. This has been
changed from previously 3: although no multi-byte option with a length
less than 3 yet exists (cf. table 3 in 5.8), a length of 2 is valid.
(The switch-statement in dccp_parse has further per-option length checks.)
3. The option length exceeds the length of the remaining option space.

RFC4340 states that if a packet is received with an option error (such as a
Mandatory Option as the last byte of the option list), the endpoint should
repond with a Reset.
In the LISTEN and RESPOND states, the endpoint correctly reponds with Reset,
while in the REQUEST/OPEN states, packets with option errors are just ignored.
The packet sequence is as follows:
Case 1:
Endpoint A Endpoint B
(CLOSED) (CLOSED)
<---------------- REQUEST
RESPONSE -----------------> (*1)
(with invalid option)
<---------------- RESET
(with Reset Code 5, "Option Error")
(*1) currently just ignored, no Reset is sent
Case 2:
Endpoint A Endpoint B
(OPEN) (OPEN)
DATA-ACK -----------------> (*2)
(with invalid option)
<---------------- RESET
(with Reset Code 5, "Option Error")
(*2) currently just ignored, no Reset is sent
This patch fixes the problem, by generating a Reset instead of silently
ignoring option errors.

The association request includes a list of supported data rates.
802.11b: 4 supported rates.
802.11g: 12 (8 + 4) supported rates.
802.11a: 8 supported rates.
The rates tag of the assoc request has room for only 8 rates. In case of
802.11g an extended rate tag is appended. However in net/wireless/mlme.c
an extended (empty) rate tag is also appended if the number of rates is
exact 8. This empty (length=0) extended rates tag causes some APs to
deny association with code 18 (unsupported rates). These APs include my
ZyXEL G-570U, and according to Tomas Winkler som Cisco APs.
'If count == 8' has been used to check for the need for an extended rates
tag. But count would also be equal to 8 if the for loop exited because of
no more supported rates. Therefore a check for count being less than
rates_len would seem more correct.

Previous version was using incorrect union structures for non-AP
interfaces when adding and removing max_ratectrl_rateidx and
force_unicast_rateidx entries. Depending on the vif type, this ended
up in corrupting debugfs entries since the dentries inside different
union structures ended up going being on top of eachother.. As the
end result, debugfs files were being left behind with references to
freed data (instant kernel oops on access) and directories were not
removed properly when unloading mac80211 drivers. This patch fixes
those issues by using only a single union structure based on the vif
type.

The previous code was using IWEVCUSTOM to report IEs from AssocReq and
AssocResp frames into user space. This can easily hit the 256 byte
limit (IW_CUSTOM_MAX) with APs that include number of vendor IEs in
AssocResp. This results in the event message not being sent and dmesg
showing "wlan0 (WE) : Wireless Event too big (366)" type of errors.
Convert mac80211 to use IWEVASSOCREQIE/IWEVASSOCRESPIE to avoid the
issue of being unable to send association IEs as wireless events. These
newer event types use binary encoding and larger maximum size
(IW_GENERIC_IE_MAX = 1024), so the likelyhood of not being able to send
the IEs is much smaller than with IWEVCUSTOM. As an extra benefit, the
code is also quite a bit simpler since there is no need to allocate an
extra buffer for hex encoding.

This fixes a problem spotted with zebra, but not sure if it is
necessary a kernel problem. With IPV6 when an address is added to an
interface, Zebra creates a duplicate RIB entry, one as a connected
route, and other as a kernel route.
When an address is added to an interface the RTN_NEWADDR message
causes Zebra to create a connected route. In IPV4 when an address is
added to an interface a RTN_NEWROUTE message is set to user space with
the protocol RTPROT_KERNEL. Zebra ignores these messages, because it
already has the connected route.
The problem is that route created in IPV6 has route protocol ==
RTPROT_BOOT. Was this a design decision or a bug? This fixes it. Same
patch applies to both net-2.6 and stable.
