As discussed at netconf'05, we're trying to save every bit in sk_buff.
The patch below makes sk_buff 8 bytes smaller.  I did some basic
testing on my notebook and it seems to work.

The only real in-tree user of nfcache was IPVS, who only needs a
single bit.  Unfortunately I couldn't find some other free bit in
sk_buff to stuff that bit into, so I introduced a separate field for
them.  Maybe the IPVS guys can resolve that to further save space.

Initially I wanted to shrink pkt_type to three bits (PACKET_HOST and
alike are only 6 values defined), but unfortunately the bluetooth code
overloads pkt_type :(

The conntrack-event-api (out-of-tree) uses nfcache, but Rusty just
came up with a way how to do it without any skb fields, so it's safe
to remove it.

- remove all never-implemented 'nfcache' code
- don't have ipvs code abuse 'nfcache' field. currently get's their own
  compile-conditional skb->ipvs_property field.  IPVS maintainers can
  decide to move this bit elswhere, but nfcache needs to die.
- remove skb->nfcache field to save 4 bytes
- move skb->nfctinfo into three unused bits to save further 4 bytes

Intention of this bit is to force pushing of the existing
send queue when TCP_CORK or TCP_NODELAY state changes via
setsockopt().

But it's easy to create a situation where the bit never
clears.  For example, if the send queue starts empty:

1) set TCP_NODELAY
2) clear TCP_NODELAY
3) set TCP_CORK
4) do small write()

The current code will leave TCP_NAGLE_PUSH set after that
sequence.  Unconditionally clearing the bit when new data
is added via skb_entail() solves the problem.

qdisc_create_dflt() is missing to destroy the newly allocated
default qdisc if the initialization fails resulting in leaks
of all kinds. The only caller in mainline which may trigger
this bug is sch_tbf.c in tbf_create_dflt_qdisc().

Note: qdisc_create_dflt() doesn't fulfill the official locking
      requirements of qdisc_destroy() but since the qdisc could
      never be seen by the outside world this doesn't matter
      and it can stay as-is until the locking of pkt_sched
      is cleaned up.

The socket flag cleanups that went into 2.6.12-rc1 are basically oring
the flags of an old socket into the socket just being created.
Unfortunately that one was just initialized by sock_init_data(), so already
has SOCK_ZAPPED set.  As the result zapped sockets are created and all
incoming connection will fail due to this bug which again was carefully
replicated to at least AX.25, NET/ROM or ROSE.

In order to keep the abstraction alive I've introduced sock_copy_flags()
to copy the socket flags from one sockets to another and used that
instead of the bitwise copy thing.  Anyway, the idea here has probably
been to copy all flags, so sock_copy_flags() should be the right thing.
With this the ham radio protocols are usable again, so I hope this will
make it into 2.6.13.

Found this bug while doing some scaling testing that created 500K inet
peers.

peer_check_expire() in net/ipv4/inetpeer.c isn't using inet_peer_gc_mintime
correctly and will end up creating an expire timer with less than the
minimum duration, and even zero/negative if enough active peers are
present.

If >65K peers, the timer will be less than inet_peer_gc_mintime, and with
>70K peers, the timer duration will reach zero and go negative.

The timer handler will continue to schedule another zero/negative timer in
a loop until peers can be aged.  This can continue for at least a few
minutes or even longer if the peers remain active due to arriving packets
while the loop is occurring.

Bug is present in both 2.4 and 2.6.  Same patch will apply to both just
fine.

1) We send out a normal sized packet with TSO on to start off.
2) ICMP is received indicating a smaller MTU.
3) We send the current sk_send_head which needs to be fragmented
since it was created before the ICMP event.  The first fragment
is then sent out.

At this point the remaining fragment is allocated by tcp_fragment.
However, its size is padded to fit the L1 cache-line size therefore
creating tail-room up to 124 bytes long.

This fragment will also be sitting at sk_send_head.

4) tcp_sendmsg is called again and it stores data in the tail-room of
of the fragment.
5) tcp_push_one is called by tcp_sendmsg which then calls tso_fragment
since the packet as a whole exceeds the MTU.

At this point we have a packet that has data in the head area being
fed to tso_fragment which bombs out.

My take on this is that we shouldn't ever call tcp_fragment on a TSO
socket for a packet that is yet to be transmitted since this creates
a packet on sk_send_head that cannot be extended.

So here is a patch to change it so that tso_fragment is always used
in this case.

Well I've only found one potential cause for the assertion
failure in tcp_mark_head_lost.  First of all, this can only
occur if cnt > 1 since tp->packets_out is never zero here.
If it did hit zero we'd have much bigger problems.

So cnt is equal to fackets_out - reordering.  Normally
fackets_out is less than packets_out.  The only reason
I've found that might cause fackets_out to exceed packets_out
is if tcp_fragment is called from tcp_retransmit_skb with a
TSO skb and the current MSS is greater than the MSS stored
in the TSO skb.  This might occur as the result of an expiring
dst entry.

In that case, packets_out may decrease (line 1380-1381 in
tcp_output.c).  However, fackets_out is unchanged which means
that it may in fact exceed packets_out.

Previously tcp_retrans_try_collapse was the only place where
packets_out can go down and it takes care of this by decrementing
fackets_out.

So we should make sure that fackets_out is reduced by an appropriate
amount here as well.

sendmsg()/recvmsg() syscalls from o32/n32 apps to a 64bit kernel will
cause a kernel memory leak if iov_len > UIO_FASTIOV for each syscall!

This is because both sys_sendmsg() and verify_compat_iovec() kmalloc a
new iovec structure.  Only the one from sys_sendmsg() is free'ed.

I wrote a simple test program to confirm this after identifying the
problem:

http://davej.org/programs/testsendmsg.c
