NFS: call nfs_wb_all() only on regular files

2008-01-21T19:04:16+00:00

It looks like nfs_setattr() and nfs_rename() also need to test whether the target is a regular file before calling nfs_wb_all()... It isn't technically needed since the version of nfs_wb_all() that exists on 2.6.16 should be safe to call on non-regular files (it will be a no-op). However it is a useful optimisation.

[ATM]: Check IP header validity in mpc_send_packet

2008-01-21T00:14:02+00:00

[ Upstream commit: 1c9b7aa1eb40ab708ef3242f74b9a61487623168 ] Al went through the ip_fast_csum callers and found this piece of code that did not validate the IP header. While root crashing the machine by sending bogus packets through raw or AF_PACKET sockets isn't that serious, it is still nice to react gracefully. This patch ensures that the skb has enough data for an IP header and that the header length field is valid. Adrian Bunk: Backported to 2.6.16 following instructions by David Miller.
