This patch enables TCP checksum offload support for IPv6 on ibmveth. This completely eliminates the generation and checking of the checksum for IPv6 packets that are completely virtual and never touch a physical network. A basic TCPIPV6_STREAM netperf run showed a ~30% throughput improvement when an MTU of 64000 was used. This featured is enabled by default, as is the case for IPv4 checksum offload. When checksum offload is enabled the driver will negotiate IPv4 and IPv6 offload with the firmware separately and enable what is available. As long as either IPv4 or IPv6 offload is supported and enabled the device will report that checksum offload is enabled. The device stats, available through ethtool, will display which checksum offload features are supported/enabled by firmware. Performance testing against a stock kernel shows no regression for IPv4 or IPv6 in terms of throughput or processor utilization with checksum disabled or enabled.

Remove code in the device probe function where we set up the checksum offload feature and replace it with a call to an existing function that is doing the same.

Use the existing bounce buffer if we send a buffer under a certain size. This saves the overhead of a TCE map/unmap.

At the moment we try and replenish the receive ring on every rx interrupt. We even have a pool->threshold but aren't using it. To limit the maximum latency incurred when refilling, change the threshold from 1/2 to 7/8 and reduce the largest rx pool from 768 buffers to 512 which should be more than enough.

Add code to expand the headroom of an outgoing TIPC message if the sk_buff has insufficient room to hold the header for the associated Ethernet device. This change is necessary to ensure that messages TIPC does not create itself (eg. incoming messages that are being routed to another node) do not cause problems, since TIPC has no control over the amount of headroom available in such messages.

Optimizes TIPC's name table translation code to avoid unnecessary manipulation of the node address field of the resulting port id when name translation fails.

While porting GRO to r8169, I found this driver has a bug in its rx path. All skbs given to network stack had their ip_summed set to CHECKSUM_NONE, while hardware said they had correct TCP/UDP checksums. The reason is driver sets skb->ip_summed on the original skb before the copy eventually done by copybreak. The fresh skb gets the ip_summed = CHECKSUM_NONE value, forcing network stack to recompute checksum, and preventing my GRO patch to work. Fix is to make the ip_summed setting after skb copy. Note : rx_copybreak current value is 16383, so all frames are copied...

The current IPv6 behavior is to not accept router advertisements while forwarding, i.e. configured as router. This does make sense, a router is typically not supposed to be auto configured. However there are exceptions and we should allow the current behavior to be overwritten. Therefore this patch enables the user to overrule the "if forwarding enabled then don't listen to RAs" rule by setting accept_ra to the special value of 2. An alternative would be to ignore the forwarding switch alltogether and solely accept RAs based on the value of accept_ra. However, I found that if not intended, accepting RAs as a router can lead to strange unwanted behavior therefore we it seems wise to only do so if the user explicitely asks for this behavior.
