The pmtu informations on the inetpeer are visible for output and
input routes. On packet forwarding, we might propagate a learned
pmtu to the sender. As we update the pmtu informations of the
inetpeer on demand, the original sender of the forwarded packets
might never notice when the pmtu to that inetpeer increases.
So use the mtu of the outgoing device on packet forwarding instead
of the pmtu to the final destination.

commit f39925db (ipv4: Cache learned redirect information in
inetpeer.) introduced a regression in ICMP redirect handling.

It assumed ipv4_dst_check() would be called because all possible routes
were attached to the inetpeer we modify in ip_rt_redirect(), but thats
not true.

commit 7cc9150e (route: fix ICMP redirect validation) tried to fix
this but solution was not complete. (It fixed only one route)

So we must lookup existing routes (including different TOS values) and
call check_peer_redir() on them.

unres_qlen is the number of frames we are able to queue per unresolved

for strange drops, especially if IP fragments are used, or multiple
sessions start in parallel. Even a single tcp flow can hit this limit.

When the ahash driver returns -EBUSY, AH4/6 input functions return
NET_XMIT_DROP, presumably copied from the output code path.  But
returning transmit codes on input doesn't make a lot of sense.
Since NET_XMIT_DROP is a positive int, this gets interpreted as
the next header type (i.e., success).  As that can only end badly,
remove the check.

[PATCH net-next] ipv4: IP_PKTINFO doesnt need dst reference

When a socket uses IP_PKTINFO notifications, we currently force a dst
reference for each received skb. Reader has to access dst to get needed
information (rt_iif & rt_spec_dst) and must release dst reference.

We also forced a dst reference if skb was put in socket backlog, even
without IP_PKTINFO handling. This happens under stress/load.

We can instead store the needed information in skb->cb[], so that only
softirq handler really access dst, improving cache hit ratios.

This removes two atomic operations per packet, and false sharing as
well.

On a benchmark using a mono threaded receiver (doing only recvmsg()
calls), I can reach 720.000 pps instead of 570.000 pps.

IP_PKTINFO is typically used by DNS servers, and any multihomed aware
UDP application.

Reading /proc/net/snmp on a machine with a lot of cpus is very expensive
(can be ~88000 us).

This is because ICMPMSG MIB uses 4096 bytes per cpu, and folding values
for all possible cpus can read 16 Mbytes of memory.

ICMP messages are not considered as fast path on a typical server, and
eventually few cpus handle them anyway. We can afford an atomic
operation instead of using percpu data.

This saves 4096 bytes per cpu and per network namespace.

The AH4/6 ahash output callbacks pass nexthdr to xfrm_output_resume
instead of the error code.  This appears to be a copy+paste error from
the input case, where nexthdr is expected.  This causes the driver to
continuously add AH headers to the datagram until either an allocation
fails and the packet is dropped or the ahash driver hits a synchronous
fallback and the resulting monstrosity is transmitted.

Correct this issue by simply passing the error code unadulterated.

  - Routing using TOS as a selector
  - Firewalls
  - Trafic classification / shaping

We now remember in timewait structure the inet tos field and use it in
ACK generation, and route lookup.

 - We still reflect incoming TOS in RST messages.
 - We could extend MuraliRaja Muniraju patch to report TOS value in
