Essentially netlink at the moment always reports a pid and sequence of 0
always for v6 route activities. 
To understand the repurcassions of this look at:
http://lists.quagga.net/pipermail/quagga-dev/2005-June/003507.html

While fixing this, i took the liberty to resolve the outstanding issue
of IPV6 routes inserted via ioctls to have the correct pids as well.

This patch tries to behave as close as possible to the v4 routes i.e
maintains whatever PID the socket issuing the command owns as opposed to
the process. That made the patch a little bulky.

I have tested against both netlink derived utility to add/del routes as
well as ioctl derived one. The Quagga folks have tested against quagga.
This fixes the problem and so far hasnt been detected to introduce any
new issues.

Below is a more generic patch to do fib_lookup via netlink. For others 
we should say that we discussed this as a way to verify route selection.
It's also possible there are others uses for this.

In short the fist half of struct fib_result_nl is filled in by caller 
and netlink call fills in the other half and returns it.

In case anyone is interested there is a corresponding user app to compare 
the full routing table this was used to test implementation of the LC-trie.

This patch adds the flag XFRM_STATE_NOPMTUDISC for xfrm states.  It is
similar to the nopmtudisc on IPIP/GRE tunnels.  It only has an effect
on IPv4 tunnel mode states.  For these states, it will ensure that the
DF flag is always cleared.

This is primarily useful to work around ICMP blackholes.

In future this flag could also allow a larger MTU to be set within the
tunnel just like IPIP/GRE tunnels.  This could be useful for short haul
tunnels where temporary fragmentation outside the tunnel is desired over
smaller fragments inside the tunnel.

This patch adds xfrm_init_state which is simply a wrapper that calls
xfrm_get_type and subsequently x->type->init_state.  It also gets rid
of the unused args argument.

Abstracting it out allows us to add common initialisation code, e.g.,
to set family-specific flags.

The add_time setting in xfrm_user.c was deleted because it's already
set by xfrm_state_alloc.

This patch changes the type of the third parameter 'length' of the 
raw_send_hdrinc() function from 'int' to 'size_t'.
This makes sense since this function is only ever called from one 
location, and the value passed as the third parameter in that location is 
itself of type size_t, so this makes the recieving functions parameter 
type match. Also, inside raw_send_hdrinc() the 'length' variable is 
used in comparisons with unsigned values and passed as parameter to 
functions expecting unsigned values (it's used in a single comparison with 
a signed value, but that one can never actually be negative so the patch 
also casts that one to size_t to stop gcc worrying, and it is passed in a 
single instance to memcpy_fromiovecend() which expects a signed int, but 
as far as I can see that's not a problem since the value of 'length' 
shouldn't ever exceed the value of a signed int).

This patch changes the type of the local variable 'i' in 
raw_probe_proto_opt() from 'int' to 'unsigned int'. The only use of 'i' in 
this function is as a counter in a for() loop and subsequent index into 
the msg->msg_iov[] array.
Since 'i' is compared in a loop to the unsigned variable msg->msg_iovlen 
gcc -W generates this warning : 

net/ipv4/raw.c:340: warning: comparison between signed and unsigned

Changing 'i' to unsigned silences this warning and is safe since the array 
index can never be negative anyway, so unsigned int is the logical type to 
use for 'i' and also enables a larger msg_iov[] array (but I don't know if 
that will ever matter).

This patch gets rid of the following gcc -W warning in net/ipv4/raw.c :

net/ipv4/raw.c:387: warning: comparison of unsigned expression < 0 is always false

Since 'len' is of type size_t it is unsigned and can thus never be <0, and 
since this is obvious from the function declaration just a few lines above 
I think it's ok to remove the pointless check for len<0.

net/ipv4/raw.c:517: warning: signed and unsigned type in conditional expression
net/ipv4/raw.c:613: warning: signed and unsigned type in conditional expression

It doesn't change the behaviour of the code, simply writes the conditional

breaks it into sepperate statements gcc no longer complains about having 
both a signed and unsigned value in the same conditional expression.

This patch replaces the spin_lock_irqsave call on the receive queue
lock in SCTP with spin_lock_bh.  Despite the proliferation of
spin_lock_irqsave calls in this stack, it is only entered from the
IPv4/IPv6 stack and user space.  That is, it is never entered from
hardirq context.

The call in question is only called from recvmsg which means that
IRQs aren't disabled.  Therefore it is safe to replace it with
spin_lock_bh.

To retrieve the neighbour tables send RTM_GETNEIGHTBL with the
NLM_F_DUMP flag set. Every neighbour table configuration is
spread over multiple messages to avoid running into message
size limits on systems with many interfaces. The first message
in the sequence transports all not device specific data such as
statistics, configuration, and the default parameter set.
This message is followed by 0..n messages carrying device
specific parameter sets.

Although the ordering should be sufficient, NDTA_NAME can be
used to identify sequences. The initial message can be identified
by checking for NDTA_CONFIG. The device specific messages do
not contain this TLV but have NDTPA_IFINDEX set to the
corresponding interface index.

To change neighbour table attributes, send RTM_SETNEIGHTBL
with NDTA_NAME set. Changeable attribute include NDTA_THRESH[1-3],
NDTA_GC_INTERVAL, and all TLVs in NDTA_PARMS unless marked
otherwise. Device specific parameter sets can be changed by
setting NDTPA_IFINDEX to the interface index of the corresponding
device.

Kept this first changeset minimal, without changing existing names to
ease peer review.

Basicaly tcp_openreq_alloc now receives the or_calltable, that in turn
has two new members:

->slab, that replaces tcp_openreq_cachep
->obj_size, to inform the size of the openreq descendant for
  a specific protocol

The protocol specific fields in struct open_request were moved to a
class hierarchy, with the things that are common to all connection
oriented PF_INET protocols in struct inet_request_sock, the TCP ones
in tcp_request_sock, that is an inet_request_sock, that is an
open_request.

I.e. this uses the same approach used for the struct sock class
hierarchy, with sk_prot indicating if the protocol wants to use the
open_request infrastructure by filling in sk_prot->rsk_prot with an
or_calltable.

Results? Performance is improved and TCP v4 now uses only 64 bytes per
open request minisock, down from 96 without this patch :-)

Next changeset will rename some of the structs, fields and functions
mentioned above, struct or_calltable is way unclear, better name it
struct request_sock_ops, s/struct open_request/struct request_sock/g,
etc.

This introduces a leak when xfrm_state_add()/xfrm_state_update()
fail. We hold two references (one from xfrm_state_alloc(), one
from xfrm_state_hold()), but only drop one. We need to take the
reference because the reference from xfrm_state_alloc() can
be dropped by __xfrm_state_delete(), so the fix is to drop both
references on error. Same problem in xfrm_user.c.
