ipv6: addrconf: don't remove address state on ifdown if the address is being kept

Currently, addrconf_ifdown does not delete statically configured IPv6
addresses when the interface is brought down. The intent is that when
the interface comes back up the address will be usable again. However,
this doesn't actually work, because the system stops listening on the
corresponding solicited-node multicast address, so the address cannot
respond to neighbor solicitations and thus receive traffic. Also, the
code notifies the rest of the system that the address is being deleted
(e.g, RTM_DELADDR), even though it is not. Fix it so that none of this
state is updated if the address is being kept on the interface.

Tested: Added a statically configured IPv6 address to an interface,
started ping, brought link down, brought link up again. When link came
up ping kept on going and "ip -6 maddr" showed that the host was still

tcp: Don't change unlocked socket state in tcp_v4_err().

Alexey Kuznetsov noticed a regression introduced by
commit f1ecd5d9e7366609d640ff4040304ea197fbc618
("Revert Backoff [v3]: Revert RTO on ICMP destination unreachable")

The RTO and timer modification code added to tcp_v4_err()
doesn't check sock_owned_by_user(), which if true means we
don't have exclusive access to the socket and therefore cannot
modify it's critical state.

Just skip this new code block if sock_owned_by_user() is true
and eliminate the now superfluous sock_owned_by_user() code
block contained within.

x25: Prevent crashing when parsing bad X.25 facilities

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.

14 years agobacklight: add low threshold to pwm backlight
Arun Murthy [Thu, 11 Nov 2010 22:05:28 +0000 (14:05 -0800)] 
backlight: add low threshold to pwm backlight

The intensity of the backlight can be varied from a range of
max_brightness to zero.  Though most, if not all the pwm based backlight
devices start flickering at lower brightness value.  And also for each
device there exists a brightness value below which the backlight appears
to be turned off though the value is not equal to zero.

If the range of brightness for a device is from zero to max_brightness.  A
graph is plotted for brightness Vs intensity for the pwm based backlight
device has to be a linear graph.

intensity
  |   /
  |  /
  | /
  |/
  ---------
 0 max_brightness

But pratically on measuring the above we note that the intensity of
backlight goes to zero(OFF) when the value in not zero almost nearing to
zero(some x%).  so the graph looks like

intensity
  |    /
  |   /
  |  /
  |  |
  ------------
 0   x  max_brightness

In order to overcome this drawback knowing this x% i.e nothing but the low
threshold beyond which the backlight is off and will have no effect, the
brightness value is being offset by the low threshold value(retaining the
linearity of the graph).  Now the graph becomes

intensity
  |     /
  |    /
  |   /
  |  /
  -------------
   0   max_brightness

With this for each and every digit increment in the brightness from zero
there is a change in the intensity of backlight.  Devices having this
behaviour can set the low threshold brightness(lth_brightness) and pass
the same as platform data else can have it as zero.

led-class: always implement blinking

Currently, blinking LEDs can be awkward because it is not guaranteed that
all LEDs implement blinking.  The trigger that wants it to blink then
needs to implement its own timer solution.

Rather than require that, add led_blink_set() API that triggers can use.
This function will attempt to use hw blinking, but if that fails
implements a timer for it.  To stop blinking again, brightness_set() also
needs to be wrapped into API that will stop the software blink.

As a result of this, the timer trigger becomes a very trivial one, and
hopefully we can finally see triggers using blinking as well because it's
always easy to use.

1.  The reader (in this case find_get_pages) takes the rcu_read_lock.
2.  The reader acquires slot(s) for item(s) including the index 0 item.
3.  The non-zero index item is deleted, and as a consequence the other item is
    moved to the root of the tree. The place where it used to be is queued for
    deletion after the readers finish.

4.  The reader looks at the index 0 slot, and finds that the page has 0 ref

5.  The reader looks at it again, hoping that the item will either be freed or

    at will never be updated. Also, this slot can never be reclaimed because
