CONFIG_DEBUG_SLAB found the following bug:
netem_enqueue() in sch_netem.c gets a pointer inside a slab object:
struct netem_skb_cb *cb = (struct netem_skb_cb *)skb->cb;
But then, the slab object may be freed:
skb = skb_unshare(skb, GFP_ATOMIC)
cb is still pointing inside the freed skb, so here is a patch to
initialize cb later, and make it clear that initializing it sooner
is a bad idea.
[From Stephen Hemminger: leave cb unitialized in order to let gcc
complain in case of use before initialization]

When pskb_trim has to defer to ___pksb_trim to trim the frag_list part of
the packet, the frag_list is not updated to reflect the trimming. This
will usually work fine until you hit something that uses the packet length
or tail from the frag_list.
Examples include esp_output and ip_fragment.
Another problem caused by this is that you can end up with a linear packet
with a frag_list attached.
It is possible to get away with this if we audit everything to make sure
that they always consult skb->len before going down onto frag_list. In
fact we can do the samething for the paged part as well to avoid copying
the data area of the skb. For now though, let's do the conservative fix
and update frag_list.
Many thanks to Marco Berizzi for helping me to track down this bug.

This patch lets BT_HIDP depend on instead of select INPUT. This fixes
the following warning during an s390 build:
net/bluetooth/hidp/Kconfig:4:warning: 'select' used by config symbol
'BT_HIDP' refer to undefined symbol 'INPUT'
A dependency on INPUT also implies !S390 (and therefore makes the
explicit dependency obsolete) since INPUT is not available on s390.
The practical difference should be nearly zero, since INPUT is always
set to y unless EMBEDDED=y (or S390=y).

The truesize check has uncovered the fact that we forgot to update truesize
after pskb_expand_head. Unfortunately pskb_expand_head can't update it for
us because it's used in all sorts of different contexts, some of which would
not allow truesize to be updated by itself.
So the solution for now is to simply update it in IPComp.
This patch also changes skb_put to __skb_put since we've just expanded

In the source address selection, the address must be sorted
from global to node-local.
But, ifp->scope is different from the scope for source address
selection.

ifp->scope 0 0x02 0x01
ipv6_addr_src_scope(&ifp->addr) 0x0e 0x02 0x01
So, we need to use ipv6_addr_src_scope(&ifp->addr) for sorting.
And, for backward compatibility, addresses should be sorted from

I think there is still a problem with the AIMD parameter update in
HighSpeed TCP code.
Line 125~138 of the code (net/ipv4/tcp_highspeed.c):
/* Update AIMD parameters */
if (tp->snd_cwnd > hstcp_aimd_vals[ca->ai].cwnd) {
while (tp->snd_cwnd > hstcp_aimd_vals[ca->ai].cwnd &&
ca->ai < HSTCP_AIMD_MAX - 1)
ca->ai++;
} else if (tp->snd_cwnd < hstcp_aimd_vals[ca->ai].cwnd) {
while (tp->snd_cwnd > hstcp_aimd_vals[ca->ai].cwnd &&
ca->ai > 0)
ca->ai--;
In fact, the second part (decreasing ca->ai) never decreases since the
while loop's inequality is in the reverse direction. This leads to
unfairness with multiple flows (once a flow happens to enjoy a higher
ca->ai, it keeps enjoying that even its cwnd decreases)
Here is a tentative fix (I also added a comment, trying to keep the
change clear):

This patch addresses the "No queue exists" messages commonly seen during
authentication and associating. These appear due to scheduling multiple
authentication attempts on the same network. To prevent this, I added a
flag to stop multiple authentication attempts by the association layer.
I also added a check to the wx handler to see if we're connecting to a
different network than the one already in progress. This scenario was
causing multiple requests on the same network because the network BSSID
was not being updated despite the fact that the ESSID changed.

In commit ba9b28d19a, routine
ieee80211softmac_capabilities was added to ieee80211softmac_io.c. As
denoted by its name, it completes the capabilities IE that is
needed in the associate and reassociate requests sent to the
AP. For at least one AP, the Linksys WRT54G V5, the capabilities
field must set the 'short preamble' bit or the AP refuses to
associate. In the commit noted above, there is a call to the
new routine from ieee80211softmac_reassoc_req, but not from
ieee80211softmac_assoc_req. This patch fixes that oversight.
As noted in the subject, v2.6.17 is affected. My bcm43xx card had been
unable to associate since I was forced to buy a new AP. I finally was
able to get a packet dump and traced the problem to the capabilities
info. Although I had heard that a patch was "floating around", I had
not seen it before 2.6.17 was released. As this bug does not affect
security and I seem to have the only AP affected by it, there should
be no problem in leaving it for 2.6.18.
