Patrick McHardy baf7b1e112 [NETFILTER]: x_tables: add NFLOG target
Add new NFLOG target to allow use of nfnetlink_log for both IPv4 and IPv6.
Currently we have two (unsupported by userspace) hacks in the LOG and ULOG
targets to optionally call to the nflog API. They lack a few features,
namely the IPv4 and IPv6 LOG targets can not specify a number of arguments
related to nfnetlink_log, while the ULOG target is only available for IPv4.
Remove those hacks and add a clean way to use nfnetlink_log.

Patrick McHardy 1b683b5512 [NETFILTER]: sip conntrack: better NAT handling
The NAT handling of the SIP helper has a few problems:

- Request headers are only mangled in the reply direction, From/To headers
  not at all, which can lead to authentication failures with DNAT in case
  the authentication domain is the IP address

- Contact headers in responses are only mangled for REGISTER responses

- Headers may be mangled even though they contain addresses not
  participating in the connection, like alternative addresses

- Packets are droppen when domain names are used where the helper expects
  IP addresses

This patch takes a different approach, instead of fixed rules what field
to mangle to what content, it adds symetric mapping of From/To/Via/Contact
headers, which allows to deal properly with echoed addresses in responses
and foreign addresses not belonging to the connection.

Gerrit Renker 6b57c93dc3 [DCCP]: Use `unsigned' for packet lengths
This patch implements a suggestion by Ian McDonald and

 1) Avoids tests against negative packet lengths by using unsigned int
    for packet payload lengths in the CCID send_packet()/packet_sent() routines

 2) As a consequence, it removes an now unnecessary test with regard to `len > 0'
    in ccid3_hc_tx_packet_sent: that condition is always true, since
      * negative packet lengths are avoided
      * ccid3_hc_tx_send_packet flags an error whenever the payload length is 0.
        As a consequence, ccid3_hc_tx_packet_sent is never called as all errors
        returned by ccid_hc_tx_send_packet are caught in dccp_write_xmit

 3) Removes the third argument of ccid_hc_tx_send_packet (the `len' parameter),
    since it is currently always set to skb->len. The code is updated with regard
    to this parameter change.

Gerrit Renker a79ef76f4d [DCCP] ccid3: Larger initial windows
This implements the larger-initial-windows feature for CCID 3, as described in
section 5 of RFC 4342. When the first feedback packet arrives, the sender can
send up to 2..4 packets per RTT, instead of just one.

The patch further
 * reduces the number of timestamping calls by passing the timestamp value
   (which is computed in one of the calling functions anyway) as argument

 * renames one constant with a very long name into one which is shorter and
   resembles the one in RFC 3448 (t_mbi)

 * simplifies some of the min_t/max_t cases where both `x', `y' have the same
   type

Commiter note: renamed TFRC_t_mbi to TFRC_T_MBI, to follow Linux coding style.

Gerrit Renker 5d0dbc4a9b [DCCP] ccid3: Consolidate handling of t_RTO
This patch
 * removes setting t_RTO in ccid3_hc_tx_init (per [RFC 3448, 4.2], t_RTO is
   undefined until feedback has been received);

 * makes some trivial changes (updates of comments);

 * performs a small optimisation by exploiting that the feedback timeout
   uses the value of t_ipi. The way it is done is safe, because the timeouts
   appear after the changes to t_ipi, ensuring that up-to-date values are used;

 * in ccid3_hc_tx_packet_recv, moves the t_rto statement closer to the calculation
   of the next_tmout. This makes the code clearer to read and is also safe, since
   t_rto is not updated until the next call of ccid3_hc_tx_packet_recv, and is not
   read by the functions called via ccid_wait_for_ccid();

 * removes a `max' statement in sk_reset_timer, this is not needed since the timeout
   value is always greater than 1E6 microseconds.

 * adds `XXX'es to highlight that currently the nofeedback timer is set
   in a non-standard way

 * removes two inline functions which are no longer needed as a result of

 * resolves a FIXME regarding the re-calculation of t_ipi within the nofeedback
   timer, in the state where no feedback has previously been received

 * ties updating these parameters to updating the sending rate X, exploiting
   that all three parameters in turn depend on X; and using a small optimisation
   which can reduce the number of required instructions: only update the three
   parameters when X really changes

Gerrit Renker 48e03eee71 [DCCP] ccid3: Consolidate timer resets
This patch concerns updating the value of the nofeedback timer when no feedback
has been received so far.

Since in this case the value of R is still undefined according to [RFC 3448,

provided in [RFC 4342, sec. 5], which states that in these cases the nofeedback
timer (still) expires "after two seconds".

Many thanks to Ian McDonald for pointing this out and providing the
clarification.

  * consolidates handling timer restart by

Gerrit Renker 4c0a6cb0db [UDP(-Lite)]: consolidate v4 and v6 get|setsockopt code
This patch consolidates set/getsockopt code between UDP(-Lite) v4 and 6. The
justification is that UDP(-Lite) is a transport-layer protocol and therefore
the socket option code (at least in theory) should be AF-independent.

Furthermore, there is the following code reduplication:
 * do_udp{,v6}_getsockopt is 100% identical between v4 and v6
 * do_udp{,v6}_setsockopt is identical up to the following differerence
	--v4 in contrast to v4 additionally allows the experimental encapsulation
          types  UDP_ENCAP_ESPINUDP and UDP_ENCAP_ESPINUDP_NON_IKE
	--the remainder is identical between v4 and v6
   I believe that this difference is of little relevance.

The advantages in not duplicating twice almost completely identical code.

The patch further simplifies the interface of udp{,v6}_push_pending_frames,
since for the second argument (struct udp_sock *up) it always holds that
up = udp_sk(sk); where sk is the first function argument.

Gerrit Renker 70dbd5b0ef [DCCP] ccid3: Remove redundant statements in ccid3_hc_tx_packet_sent
This patch removes a switch statement which is redundant since,
 * nothing is done in states TFRC_SSTATE_NO_SENT/TFRC_SSTATE_NO_FBACK
 * it is impossible that the function is called in the state TFRC_SSTATE_TERM, since
       --the function is called, in dccp_write_xmit, after ccid3_hc_tx_send_packet
       --if ccid3_hc_tx_send_packet is called in state TFRC_SSTATE_TERM, it returns
         -EINVAL, which means that ccid3_hc_tx_packet_sent will not be called
	 (compare dccp_write_xmit)
       --> therefore, this case is logically impossible
 * the remaining state is TFRC_SSTATE_FBACK which conditionally updates t_ipi, t_nom,
   and t_delta. This is a no-op, since
       --t_ipi only changes when feedback is received
       --however, when feedback arrives via ccid3_hc_tx_packet_recv, there is an identical
         code block which performs the same set of operations
       --performing the same set of operations again in ccid3_hc_tx_packet_sent therefore
         does not change anything, since between the time of receiving the last feedback
	 (and therefore update of t_ipi, t_nom, and t_delta), the value of t_ipi has not
	 changed
       --since t_ipi has not changed, the values of t_delta and t_nom also do not change,
         they depend fully on t_ipi
