This patch provides generic Large Receive Offload (LRO) functionality
for IPv4/TCP traffic.

LRO combines received tcp packets to a single larger tcp packet and
passes them then to the network stack in order to increase performance
(throughput). The interface supports two modes: Drivers can either
pass SKBs or fragment lists to the LRO engine.

When only GSO skb was partially ACKed, no hints are reset,
therefore fastpath_cnt_hint must be tweaked too or else it can
corrupt fackets_out. The corruption to occur, one must have
non-trivial ACK/SACK sequence, so this bug is not very often
that harmful. There's a fackets_out state reset in TCP because
fackets_out is known to be inaccurate and that fixes the issue
eventually anyway.

In case there was also at least one skb that got fully ACKed,
the fastpath_skb_hint is set to NULL which causes a recount for
fastpath_cnt_hint (the old value won't be accessed anymore),
thus it can safely be decremented without additional checking.

Based upon a report and initial patch by Peter Lieven.

tcp4_md5sig_key and tcp6_md5sig_key need to start with
the exact same members as tcp_md5sig_key.  Because they
are both cast to that type by tcp_v{4,6}_md5_do_lookup().

Unfortunately tcp{4,6}_md5sig_key use a u16 for the key
length instead of a u8, which is what tcp_md5sig_key
uses.  This just so happens to work by accident on
little-endian, but on big-endian it doesn't.

Instead of casting, just place tcp_md5sig_key as the first member of
the address-family specific structures, adjust the access sites, and
kill off the ugly casts.

So I've had a deadlock reported to me.  I've found that the sequence of
events goes like this:

1) process A (modprobe) runs to remove ip_tables.ko

2) process B (iptables-restore) runs and calls setsockopt on a netfilter socket,
increasing the ip_tables socket_ops use count

3) process A acquires a file lock on the file ip_tables.ko, calls remove_module
in the kernel, which in turn executes the ip_tables module cleanup routine,
which calls nf_unregister_sockopt

4) nf_unregister_sockopt, seeing that the use count is non-zero, puts the
calling process into uninterruptible sleep, expecting the process using the
socket option code to wake it up when it exits the kernel

4) the user of the socket option code (process B) in do_ipt_get_ctl, calls
ipt_find_table_lock, which in this case calls request_module to load
ip_tables_nat.ko

5) request_module forks a copy of modprobe (process C) to load the module and
blocks until modprobe exits.

6) Process C. forked by request_module process the dependencies of
ip_tables_nat.ko, of which ip_tables.ko is one.

7) Process C attempts to lock the request module and all its dependencies, it
blocks when it attempts to lock ip_tables.ko (which was previously locked in
step 3)

Theres not really any great permanent solution to this that I can see, but I've
developed a two part solution that corrects the problem

Part 1) Modifies the nf_sockopt registration code so that, instead of using a
use counter internal to the nf_sockopt_ops structure, we instead use a pointer
to the registering modules owner to do module reference counting when nf_sockopt
calls a modules set/get routine.  This prevents the deadlock by preventing set 4
from happening.

Part 2) Enhances the modprobe utilty so that by default it preforms non-blocking
remove operations (the same way rmmod does), and add an option to explicity
request blocking operation.  So if you select blocking operation in modprobe you
can still cause the above deadlock, but only if you explicity try (and since
root can do any old stupid thing it would like....  :)  ).

presence on each address).

Steps to reproduce:

# for i in $(seq 1 100); do ip ad add 10.0.$i.1/24 dev eth10 ; done
# ip addr show

this will _not_ show all IPs.

In testing our ESP/AH offload hardware, I discovered an issue with how
AH handles mutable fields in IPv4.  RFC 4302 (AH) states the following
on the subject:

        For IPv4, the entire option is viewed as a unit; so even
        though the type and length fields within most options are immutable
        in transit, if an option is classified as mutable, the entire option
        is zeroed for ICV computation purposes.

The current implementation does not zero the type and length fields,
resulting in authentication failures when communicating with hosts
that do (i.e. FreeBSD).

I have tested record route and timestamp options (ping -R and ping -T)
on a small network involving Windows XP, FreeBSD 6.2, and Linux hosts,
with one router.  In the presence of these options, the FreeBSD and
Linux hosts (with the patch or with the hardware) can communicate.
The Windows XP host simply fails to accept these packets with or
without the patch.

I have also been trying to test source routing options (using
traceroute -g), but haven't had much luck getting this option to work
*without* AH, let alone with.

I think this is a bug since I am not using a NFS root FS.

The following patch fixes the above problem.

From: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org>

Davem said (in February!):

  Well, first of all the change in question is not in 2.4.x either.  I just
  checked the current 2.4.x GIT tree and the test is exactly:

	if (ic_myaddr == INADDR_NONE ||
#ifdef CONFIG_ROOT_NFS
	    (MAJOR(ROOT_DEV) == UNNAMED_MAJOR
	     && root_server_addr == INADDR_NONE
	     && ic_servaddr == INADDR_NONE) ||
#endif
	    ic_first_dev->next) {

  which matches 2.6.x

  I even checked 2.4.x when it was branched for 2.5.x and the test was the
  same at the point in time too.

  Looking at the proposed change a bit it appears that it is probably
  correct, as it's trying to check that ROOT_DEV is nfs root.  But if it is
  correct then the UNNAMED_MAJOR comparison in the same code block should be
  removed as it becomes superfluous.

  I'm happy to apply this patch with that modification made.

Small patch to H-TCP from Douglas Leith. 

Fix estimation of maxRTT.  The original code ignores rtt measurements
during slow start (via the check tp->snd_ssthresh < 0xFFFF) yet this
is probably a good time to try to estimate max rtt as delayed acking
is disabled and slow start will only exit on a loss which presumably
corresponds to a maxrtt measurement.  Second, the original code (via
the check htcp_ccount(ca) > 3) ignores rtt data during what it
estimates to be the first 3 round-trip times.  This seems like an
unnecessary check now that the RCV timestamp are no longer used
for rtt estimation.

As discovered by Evegniy Polyakov, if we try to sendmsg after
a connection reset, we can do incredibly stupid things.

The core issue is that inet_sendmsg() tries to autobind the
socket, but we should never do that for TCP.  Instead we should
just go straight into TCP's sendmsg() code which will do all
of the necessary state and pending socket error checks.

TCP's sendpage already directly vectors to tcp_sendpage(), so this
merely brings sendmsg() in line with that.

It's possible that new SACK blocks that should trigger new LOST
markings arrive with new data (which previously made is_dupack
false). In addition, I think this fixes a case where we get
a cumulative ACK with enough SACK blocks to trigger the fast
recovery (is_dupack would be false there too).

I'm not completely pleased with this solution because readability
of the code is somewhat questionable as 'is_dupack' in SACK case
is no longer about dupacks only but would mean something like
'lost_marker_work_todo' too... But because of Eifel stuff done
in CA_Recovery, the FLAG_DATA_SACKED check cannot be placed to
the if statement which seems attractive solution. Nevertheless,
I didn't like adding another variable just for that either... :-)

This patch changes the API for the callback that is done after an ACK is
received. It solves a couple of issues:

  * Some congestion controls want higher resolution value of RTT
    (controlled by TCP_CONG_RTT_SAMPLE flag). These don't really want a ktime, but
    all compute a RTT in microseconds.

  * Other congestion control could use RTT at jiffies resolution.

To keep API consistent the units should be the same for both cases, just the
resolution should change.
