Conflicts:
drivers/net/ethernet/stmicro/stmmac/stmmac_platform.c
net/bridge/br_multicast.c
net/ipv6/sit.c
The conflicts were minor:
1) sit.c changes overlap with change to ip_tunnel_xmit() signature.
2) br_multicast.c had an overlap between computing max_delay using
msecs_to_jiffies and turning MLDV2_MRC() into an inline function
with a name using lowercase instead of uppercase letters.
3) stmmac had two overlapping changes, one which conditionally allocated
and hooked up a dma_cfg based upon the presence of the pbl OF property,
and another one handling store-and-forward DMA made. The latter of
which should not go into the new of_find_property() basic block.

RFC 4861 says that the IP source address of the Redirect is the
same as the current first-hop router for the specified ICMP
Destination Address, so the gateway should be taken into
consideration when we find the route for redirect.
There was once a check in commit
a6279458c5 ("NDISC: Search over
all possible rules on receipt of redirect.") and the check
went away in commit b94f1c0904
("ipv6: Use icmpv6_notify() to propagate redirect, instead of
rt6_redirect()").
The bug is only "exploitable" on layer-2 because the source
address of the redirect is checked to be a valid link-local
address but it makes spoofing a lot easier in the same L2
domain nonetheless.
Thanks very much for Hannes's help.

Allocating skbs when sending out neighbour discovery messages
currently uses sock_alloc_send_skb() based on a per net namespace
socket and thus share a socket wmem buffer space.
If a netdevice is temporarily unable to transmit due to carrier
loss or for other reasons, the queued up ndisc messages will cosnume
all of the wmem space and will thus prevent from any more skbs to
be allocated even for netdevices that are able to transmit packets.
The number of neighbour discovery messages sent is very limited,
use of alloc_skb() bypasses the socket wmem buffer size enforcement
while the manual call to skb_set_owner_w() maintains the socket
reference needed for the IPv6 output path.
This patch has orginally been posted by Eric Dumazet in a modified

This config option is superfluous in that it only guards a call
to neigh_app_ns(). Enabling CONFIG_ARPD by default has no
change in behavior. There will now be call to __neigh_notify()
for each ARP resolution, which has no impact unless there is a
user space daemon waiting to receive the notification, i.e.,
the case for which CONFIG_ARPD was designed anyways.

On a high-traffic router with many processors and many IPv6 dst
entries, soft lockup in fib6_run_gc() can occur when number of
entries reaches gc_thresh.
This happens because fib6_run_gc() uses fib6_gc_lock to allow
only one thread to run the garbage collector but ip6_dst_gc()
doesn't update net->ipv6.ip6_rt_last_gc until fib6_run_gc()
returns. On a system with many entries, this can take some time
so that in the meantime, other threads pass the tests in
ip6_dst_gc() (ip6_rt_last_gc is still not updated) and wait for
the lock. They then have to run the garbage collector one after
another which blocks them for quite long.
Resolve this by replacing special value ~0UL of expire parameter
to fib6_run_gc() by explicit "force" parameter to choose between
spin_lock_bh() and spin_trylock_bh() and call fib6_run_gc() with
force=false if gc_thresh is reached but not max_size.

The ath9k Kconfig conflict was a change of a Kconfig option name right
next to the deletion of another option.
The xen-netback conflict was overlapping changes involving the
handling of the notify list in xen_netbk_rx_action().
Batman conflict resolution provided by Antonio Quartulli, basically
keep everything in both conflict hunks.
The nl80211 conflict is a little more involved. In 'net' we added a
dynamic memory allocation to nl80211_dump_wiphy() to fix a race that
Linus reported. Meanwhile in 'net-next' the handlers were converted
to use pre and post doit handlers which use a flag to determine
whether to hold the RTNL mutex around the operation.
However, the dump handlers to not use this logic. Instead they have
to explicitly do the locking. There were apparent bugs in the
conversion of nl80211_dump_wiphy() in that we were not dropping the
RTNL mutex in all the return paths, and it seems we very much should
be doing so. So I fixed that whilst handling the overlapping changes.
To simplify the initial returns, I take the RTNL mutex after we try
to allocate 'tb'.

Currently, the size of skb allocated for NDISC is MAX_HEADER +
LL_RESERVED_SPACE(dev) + packet length + dev->needed_tailroom,
but only LL_RESERVED_SPACE(dev) bytes is "reserved" for headers.
As a result, the skb looks like this (after construction of the
message):
head data tail end
+--------------------------------------------------------------+
+ | | | |
+--------------------------------------------------------------+
|<-hlen---->|<---ipv6 packet------>|<--tlen-->|<--MAX_HEADER-->|
=LL_ = dev
RESERVED_ ->needed_
SPACE(dev) tailroom
As the name implies, "MAX_HEADER" is used for headers, and should
be "reserved" in prior to packet construction. Or, if some space
is really required at the tail of ther skb, it should be
explicitly documented.
We have several option after construction of NDISC message:
Option 1:
head data tail end
+---------------------------------------------+
+ | | |
+---------------------------------------------+
|<-hlen---->|<---ipv6 packet------>|<--tlen-->|
=LL_ = dev
RESERVED_ ->needed_
SPACE(dev) tailroom
Option 2:
head data tail end
+--------------------------------------------------+
+ | | |
+--------------------------------------------------+
|<--MAX_HEADER-->|<---ipv6 packet------>|<--tlen-->|
= dev
->needed_
tailroom
Option 3:
head data tail end
+--------------------------------------------------------------+
+ | | | |
+--------------------------------------------------------------+
|<--MAX_HEADER-->|<-hlen---->|<---ipv6 packet------>|<--tlen-->|
=LL_ = dev
RESERVED_ ->needed_
SPACE(dev) tailroom
Our tunnel drivers try expanding headroom and the space for tunnel
encapsulation was not a mandatory space -- so we are not seeing
bugs here --, but just for optimization for performance critial
situations.
Since NDISC messages are not performance critical unlike TCP,
and as we know outgoing device, LL_RESERVED_SPACE(dev) should be
just enough for the device in most (if not all) cases:
LL_RESERVED_SPACE(dev) <= LL_MAX_HEADER <= MAX_HEADER
Note that LL_RESERVED_SPACE(dev) is also enough for NDISC over
SIT (e.g., ISATAP).
So, I think Option 1 is just fine here.
