This fixed a lockdep warning which appeared when doing stress
memory tests over NFS:

	inconsistent {RECLAIM_FS-ON-W} -> {IN-RECLAIM_FS-W} usage.

	page reclaim => nfs_writepage => tcp_sendmsg => lock sk_lock

	mount_root => nfs_root_data => tcp_close => lock sk_lock =>
			tcp_send_fin => alloc_skb_fclone => page reclaim

David raised a concern that if the allocation fails in tcp_send_fin(), and it's
GFP_ATOMIC, we are going to yield() (which sleeps) and loop endlessly waiting
for the allocation to succeed.

But fact is, the original GFP_KERNEL also sleeps. GFP_ATOMIC+yield() looks
weird, but it is no worse the implicit sleep inside GFP_KERNEL. Both could
loop endlessly under memory pressure.

Here, an ICMP host/network unreachable message, whose payload fits to
TCP's SND.UNA, is taken as an indication that the RTO retransmission has
not been lost due to congestion, but because of a route failure
somewhere along the path.
With true congestion, a router won't trigger such a message and the
patched TCP will operate as standard TCP.

This patch reverts one RTO backoff, if an ICMP host/network unreachable
message, whose payload fits to TCP's SND.UNA, arrives.
Based on the new RTO, the retransmission timer is reset to reflect the
remaining time, or - if the revert clocked out the timer - a retransmission
is sent out immediately.
Backoffs are only reverted, if TCP is in RTO loss recovery, i.e. if
there have been retransmissions and reversible backoffs, already.

The current placement of the security_inet_conn_request() hooks do not allow
individual LSMs to override the IP options of the connection's request_sock.
This is a problem as both SELinux and Smack have the ability to use labeled
networking protocols which make use of IP options to carry security attributes
and the inability to set the IP options at the start of the TCP handshake is
problematic.

This patch moves the IPv4 security_inet_conn_request() hooks past the code
where the request_sock's IP options are set/reset so that the LSM can safely
manipulate the IP options as needed.  This patch intentionally does not change
the related IPv6 hooks as IPv6 based labeling protocols which use IPv6 options
are not currently implemented, once they are we will have a better idea of
the correct placement for the IPv6 hooks.

Some systems send SYN packets with apparently wrong RFC1323 timestamp
option values [timestamp tsval=0 tsecr=0].
It might be for security reasons (http://www.secuobs.com/plugs/25220.shtml )

Linux TCP stack ignores this option and sends back a SYN+ACK packet
without timestamp option, thus many TCP flows cannot use timestamps
and lose some benefit of RFC1323.

Other operating systems seem to not care about initial tsval value, and let
tcp flows to negotiate timestamp option.

Unfortunately simplicity isn't always the best.  The fraginfo
interface turned out to be suboptimal.  The problem was quite
obvious.  For every packet, we have to copy the headers from
the frags structure into skb->head, even though for 99% of the
packets this part is immediately thrown away after the merge.

LRO didn't have this problem because it directly read the headers
from the frags structure.

This patch attempts to address this by creating an interface
that allows GRO to access the headers in the first frag without
having to copy it.  Because all drivers that use frags place the
headers in the first frag this optimisation should be enough.

This is the last step to be able to perform full RCU lookups
in __inet_lookup() : After established/timewait tables, we
add RCU lookups to listening hash table.

The only trick here is that a socket of a given type (TCP ipv4,
TCP ipv6, ...) can now flight between two different tables
(established and listening) during a RCU grace period, so we
must use different 'nulls' end-of-chain values for two tables.

We define a large value :

#define LISTENING_NULLS_BASE (1U << 29)

So that slots in listening table are guaranteed to have different
end-of-chain values than slots in established table. A reader can
still detect it finished its lookup in the right chain.

RCU was added to UDP lookups, using a fast infrastructure :

- hlist_nulls permits to use few memory barriers.

This patch uses same infrastructure for TCP/DCCP established

Thanks to SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU, no slowdown for applications
using short lived TCP connections. A followup patch, converting
rwlocks to spinlocks will even speedup this case.

I'm trying to use the TCP_MAXSEG option to setsockopt() to set the MSS
for both sides of a bidirectional connection.

man tcp says: "If this option is set before connection establishment, it
also changes the MSS value announced to the other end in the initial
packet."

However, the kernel only uses the MTU/route cache to set the advertised
MSS. That means if I set the MSS to, say, 500 before calling connect(),
I will send at most 500-byte packets, but I will still receive 1500-byte
packets in reply.

This is a bug, either in the kernel or the documentation.

This patch (applies to latest net-2.6) reduces the advertised value to
that requested by the user as long as setsockopt() is called before
connect() or accept(). This seems like the behavior that one would
expect as well as that which is documented.

I've tried to make sure that things that depend on the advertised MSS
are set correctly.

This patch provides a function to purge all timewait sockets related
to a network namespace. The timewait sockets life cycle is not tied with
the network namespace, that means the timewait sockets stay alive while
the network namespace dies. The timewait sockets are for avoiding to
receive a duplicate packet from the network, if the network namespace is
freed, the network stack is removed, so no chance to receive any packets
from the outside world. Furthermore, having a pending destruction timer
on these sockets with a network namespace freed is not safe and will lead
to an oops if the timer callback which try to access data belonging to 
the namespace like for example in:
	inet_twdr_do_twkill_work
		-> NET_INC_STATS_BH(twsk_net(tw), LINUX_MIB_TIMEWAITED);

Purging the timewait sockets at the network namespace destruction will:
 1) speed up memory freeing for the namespace
 2) fix kernel panic on asynchronous timewait destruction

On most systems most of the TCP established/time-wait hash buckets are empty.
When walking the hash table for /proc/net/tcp their read locks would
always be aquired just to find out they're empty. This patch changes the code
to check first if the buckets have any entries before taking the lock, which
is much cheaper than taking a lock. Since the hash tables are large
this makes a measurable difference on processing /proc/net/tcp, 
especially on architectures with slow read_lock (e.g. PPC) 

On a 2GB Core2 system time cat /proc/net/tcp > /dev/null (with a mostly
empty hash table) goes from 0.046s to 0.005s.

On systems with slower atomics (like P4 or POWER4) or larger hash tables
(more RAM) the difference is much higher.

This can be noticeable because there are some daemons around who regularly
scan /proc/net/tcp.

Original idea for this patch from Marcus Meissner, but redone by me.

If the following packet flow happen, kernel will panic.
MathineA			MathineB
		SYN
	---------------------->    
        	SYN+ACK
	<----------------------
		ACK(bad seq)
	---------------------->
When a bad seq ACK is received, tcp_v4_md5_do_lookup(skb->sk, ip_hdr(skb)->daddr))
is finally called by tcp_v4_reqsk_send_ack(), but the first parameter(skb->sk) is 
NULL at that moment, so kernel panic happens.
This patch fixes this bug.

I noticed, looking at tcpdumps, that timewait ACKs were getting sent
with an incorrect MD5 signature when signatures were enabled.

I broke this in 49a72dfb ("tcp: Fix
MD5 signatures for non-linear skbs"). I didn't take into account that
the skb passed to tcp_*_send_ack was the inbound packet, thus the
source and dest addresses need to be swapped when calculating the MD5
pseudoheader.
