x25: decrement netdev reference counts on unload

2010-12-08T20:13:44Z

x25 does not decrement the network device reference counts on module unload. Thus unregistering any pre-existing interface after unloading the x25 module hangs and results in unregister_netdevice: waiting for tap0 to become free. Usage count = 1 This patch decrements the reference counts of all interfaces in x25_link_free, the way it is already done in x25_link_device_down for NETDEV_DOWN events.

x25: Prevent crashing when parsing bad X.25 facilities

2010-11-12T20:44:42Z

Now with improved comma support. On parsing malformed X.25 facilities, decrementing the remaining length may cause it to underflow. Since the length is an unsigned integer, this will result in the loop continuing until the kernel crashes. This patch adds checks to ensure decrementing the remaining length does not cause it to wrap around. Signed-off-by: Dan Rosenberg Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

BKL: introduce CONFIG_BKL.

2010-10-21T13:44:13Z

With all the patches we have queued in the BKL removal tree, only a few dozen modules are left that actually rely on the BKL, and even there are lots of low-hanging fruit. We need to decide what to do about them, this patch illustrates one of the options: Every user of the BKL is marked as 'depends on BKL' in Kconfig, and the CONFIG_BKL becomes a user-visible option. If it gets disabled, no BKL using module can be built any more and the BKL code itself is compiled out. The one exception is file locking, which is practically always enabled and does a 'select BKL' instead. This effectively forces CONFIG_BKL to be enabled until we have solved the fs/lockd mess and can apply the patch that removes the BKL from fs/locks.c. Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann
