Based on a patch from Don Howard <dhoward@redhat.com>

When calling write() with a buffer larger than 512 bytes, the
driver's write buffer overflows, allowing to overwrite the EIP and
execute arbitrary code with kernel privileges.

In read(), there exists a similar problem, but coming from the device.
A malicous or buggy device sending more than 512 bytes can overflow
of the driver's read buffer, with the same effects as above.

mthca_table_find() will return the wrong address when the table entry
being searched for is exactly at the beginning of a sglist entry
(other than the first), because it uses >= when it should use >.

Example: assume we have 2 entries in scatterlist, 4K each, offset is 4K.
The current code will return first entry + 4K when we really want
the second entry.

In particular this means mapping an FMR on a memfree HCA may end up
writing the page table into the wrong place, leading to memory
corruption and also causing the HCA to use an incorrect address
translation table.

When ipoib_ib_dev_flush() is called because of a port event, the
driver needs to rejoin all multicast groups, since the flush will call
ipoib_mcast_dev_flush() (via ipoib_ib_dev_down()).  Otherwise no
(non-broadcast) multicast groups will be rejoined until the networking
core calls ->set_multicast_list again, and so multicast reception will
be broken for potentially a long time.

We discovered a problem when running IPoIB applications on multiple
CPUs on an Altix system. Many messages such as:

ib_mthca 0002:01:00.0: SQ 000014 full (19941644 head, 19941707 tail, 64 max, 0 nreq)

appear in syslog, and the driver wedges up.

Apparently this is because writes to the doorbells from different CPUs
reach the device out of order. The following patch adds mmiowb() calls
after doorbell rings to ensure the doorbell writes are ordered.

Repeated -j20 kernel builds on a G5 Quad running an SMP PREEMPT kernel
would often collapse within a day, some exec failing with "Bad address".
In each case examined, load_elf_binary was doing a kernel_read, but
generic_file_aio_read's access_ok saw current->thread.fs.seg as USER_DS
instead of KERNEL_DS.

objdump of filemap.o shows gcc 4.1.0 emitting "mr r5,r13 ... ld r9,416(r5)"
here for get_paca()->__current, instead of the expected and much more usual
"ld r9,416(r13)"; I've seen other gcc4s do the same, but perhaps not gcc3s.

So, if the task is preempted and rescheduled on a different cpu in between
the mr and the ld, r5 will be looking at a different paca_struct from the
one it's now on, pick up the wrong __current, and perhaps the wrong seg.
Presumably much worse could happen elsewhere, though that split is rare.

Other architectures appear to be safe (x86_64's read_pda is more limiting
than get_paca), but ppc64 needs to force "current" into one instruction.

CT based mach64 cards were reported to hang on sparc64 boxes when
compiled with gcc-4.1.x and later.

Looking at this piece of code, it's no surprise.  A critical
delay was implemented as an empty for() loop, and gcc 4.0.x
and previous did not optimize it away, so we did get a delay.

But gcc-4.1.x and later can optimize it away, and we get crashes.

Use a real udelay() to fix this.  Fix verified on SunBlade100.

TCP may advertize up to 16-bits window in SYN packets (no window
scaling allowed). At the same time, TCP may have rcv_wnd
(32-bits) that does not fit to 16-bits without window scaling
resulting in pseudo garbage into advertized window from the
low-order bits of rcv_wnd. This can happen at least when
mss <= (1<<wscale) (see tcp_select_initial_window). This patch
fixes the handling of SYN advertized windows (compile tested
only).

In worst case (which is unlikely to occur though), the receiver
advertized window could be just couple of bytes. I'm not sure
that such situation would be handled very well at all by the
receiver!? Fortunately, the situation normalizes after the
first non-SYN ACK is received because it has the correct,
scaled window.

Alternatively, tcp_select_initial_window could be changed to
prevent too large rcv_wnd in the first place.

[ tcp_make_synack() has the same bug, and I've added a fix for
  that to this patch -DaveM ]
