This reverts eefa3906

The simplification made in that change works with the assumption that
the 'offset' parameter to these functions is always positive or zero,
which is not true.  It can be and often is negative in order to access
SKB header values in front of skb->data.

I noticed recently that, in skb_checksum(), "offset" and "start" are
essentially the same thing and have the same value throughout the
function, despite being computed differently. Using a single variable
allows some cleanups and makes the skb_checksum() function smaller,
more readable, and presumably marginally faster.

We appear to have many other "sk_buff walker" functions built on the
exact same model, so the cleanup applies to them, too. Here is a list
of the functions I found to be affected:

net/appletalk/ddp.c:atalk_sum_skb()
net/core/datagram.c:skb_copy_datagram_iovec()
net/core/datagram.c:skb_copy_and_csum_datagram()
net/core/skbuff.c:skb_copy_bits()
net/core/skbuff.c:skb_store_bits()
net/core/skbuff.c:skb_checksum()
net/core/skbuff.c:skb_copy_and_csum_bit()
net/core/user_dma.c:dma_skb_copy_datagram_iovec()
net/xfrm/xfrm_algo.c:skb_icv_walk()
net/xfrm/xfrm_algo.c:skb_to_sgvec()

OTOH, I admit I'm a bit surprised, the cleanup is rather obvious so I'm
really wondering if I am missing something. Can anyone please comment
on this?

For the common, open coded 'skb->h.raw = skb->data' operation, so that we can
later turn skb->h.raw into a offset, reducing the size of struct sk_buff in
64bit land while possibly keeping it as a pointer on 32bit.

This one touches just the most simple cases:

skb->h.raw = skb->data;
skb->h.raw = {skb_push|[__]skb_pull}()

The next ones will handle the slightly more "complex" cases.

For the places where we need a pointer to the mac header, it is still legal to
touch skb->mac.raw directly if just adding to, subtracting from or setting it
to another layer header.

This one also converts some more cases to skb_reset_mac_header() that my
regex missed as it had no spaces before nor after '=', ugh.

When we receive an AppleTalk frame shorter than what its header says,
we still attempt to verify its checksum, and trip on the BUG_ON() at
the end of function atalk_sum_skb() because of the length mismatch.

This has security implications because this can be triggered by simply
sending a specially crafted ethernet frame to a target victim,
effectively crashing that host. Thus this qualifies, I think, as a
remote DoS. Here is the frame I used to trigger the crash, in npg
format:

<Appletalk Killer>
{
# Ethernet header -----

  XX XX XX XX XX XX  # Destination MAC
  00 00 00 00 00 00  # Source MAC
  00 1D              # Length

# LLC header -----

  AA AA 03
  08 00 07 80 9B  # Appletalk

# Appletalk header -----

  00 1B        # Packet length (invalid)
  00 01        # Fake checksum 
  00 00 00 00  # Destination and source networks
  00 00 00 00  # Destination and source nodes and ports

# Payload -----

  0C 0D 0E 0F 10 11 12 13
  14
}

The destination MAC address must be set to those of the victim.

The severity is mitigated by two requirements:
* The target host must have the appletalk kernel module loaded. I
  suspect this isn't so frequent.
* AppleTalk frames are non-IP, thus I guess they can only travel on
  local networks. I am no network expert though, maybe it is possible
  to somehow encapsulate AppleTalk packets over IP.

The bug has been reported back in June 2004:
  http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2979
But it wasn't investigated, and was closed in July 2006 as both
reporters had vanished meanwhile.

This code was new in kernel 2.6.0-test5:
  http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/tglx/history.git;a=commitdiff;h=7ab442d7e0a76402c12553ee256f756097cae2d2
And not modified since then, so we can assume that vanilla kernels
2.6.0-test5 and later, and distribution kernels based thereon, are
affected.

Note that I still do not know for sure what triggered the bug in the
real-world cases. The frame could have been corrupted by the kernel if
we have a bug hiding somewhere. But more likely, we are receiving the
faulty frame from the network.

Fix kernel oopses whenever somebody issues compatible ioctl on AppleTalk,
Econet, IPX or IRDA socket.  For AppleTalk/Econet/IRDA it restores state
in which these sockets were before compat_ioctl was introduced to the socket
ops, for IPX it implements support for 4 ioctls which were not implemented
before - as these ioctls use structures which match between 32bit and 64bit
userspace, no special code is needed, just call 64bit ioctl handler.

Currently all network protocols need to call dev_ioctl as the default
fallback in their ioctl implementations.  This patch adds a fallback
to dev_ioctl to sock_ioctl if the protocol returned -ENOIOCTLCMD.
This way all the procotol ioctl handlers can be simplified and we don't
need to export dev_ioctl.

I noticed that some of 'struct proto_ops' used in the kernel may share
a cache line used by locks or other heavily modified data. (default
linker alignement is 32 bytes, and L1_CACHE_LINE is 64 or 128 at
least)

This patch makes sure a 'struct proto_ops' can be declared as const,
so that all cpus can share all parts of it without false sharing.

This is not mandatory : a driver can still use a read/write structure
if it needs to (and eventually a __read_mostly)

I made a global stubstitute to change all existing occurences to make
them const.

This should reduce the possibility of false sharing on SMP, and
speedup some socket system calls.

From: Oliver Dawid <oliver@helios.de>

we found a bug in net/appletalk/ddp.c concerning broadcast packets. In 
kernel 2.4 it was working fine. The bug first occured 4 years ago when 
switching to new SNAP layer handling. This bug can be splitted up into a 
sending(1) and reception(2) problem:

Sending(1)
In kernel 2.4 broadcast packets were sent to a matching ethernet device 
and atalk_rcv() was called to receive it as "loopback" (so loopback 
packets were shortcutted and handled in DDP layer).

When switching to the new SNAP structure, this shortcut was removed and 
the loopback packet was send to SNAP layer. The author forgot to replace 
the remote device pointer by the loopback device pointer before sending 
the packet to SNAP layer (by calling ddp_dl->request() ) therfor the 
packet was not sent back by underlying layers to ddp's atalk_rcv().

Reception(2)
In atalk_rcv() a packet received by this loopback mechanism contains now 
the (rigth) loopback device pointer (in Kernel 2.4 it was the (wrong) 
remote ethernet device pointer) and therefor no matching socket will be 
found to deliver this packet to. Because a broadcast packet should be 
send to the first matching socket (as it is done in many other protocols 
(?)), we removed the network comparison in broadcast case.

Below you will find a patch to correct this bug. Its diffed to kernel 
2.6.14-rc1

Bonding just wants the device before the skb_bond()
decapsulation occurs, so simply pass that original
device into packet_type->func() as an argument.

It remains to be seen whether we can use this same
exact thing to get rid of skb->input_dev as well.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
