Currently, in menuconfig, Netlink's new mmaped IO is the very first
entry under the ``Networking support'' item and comes even before
``Networking options'':
[ ] Netlink: mmaped IO
Networking options --->
...
Lets move this into ``Networking options'' under netlink's Kconfig,
since this might be more appropriate. Introduced by commit ccdfcc398
(``netlink: mmaped netlink: ring setup'').

This resulted from my commit ca99ca14c which introduced a mutex_trylock
operation in a path that could execute in interrupt context. When mutex
debugging is enabled, the above warns the user when we are in fact
exectuting in interrupt context
interrupt context.
After some discussion, It seems that a semaphore is the proper mechanism to use
here. While mutexes are defined to be unusable in interrupt context, no such
condition exists for semaphores (save for the fact that the non blocking api
calls, like up and down_trylock must be used when in irq context).

is generated as the irq_enabled is not initialized for the primary interface

It does this with the SET_NETDEV_DEV function. It should register with the device

- Currently they appear here:
/sys/devices/virtual/net/eth0 (standard ISA)
/sys/devices/virtual/net/eth1 (EISA)
- Rather, they should instead be here:

"77c1090 net: fix infinite loop in __skb_recv_datagram()" (v3.8) introduced a
regression:
After that commit, recv can no longer peek beyond a 0-sized skb in the queue.
__skb_recv_datagram() instead stops at the first skb with len == 0 and results
in the system call failing with -EFAULT via skb_copy_datagram_iovec().
When peeking at an offset with 0-sized skb(s), each one of those is received
only once, in sequence. The offset starts moving forward again after receiving
datagrams with len > 0.

Linux immediately returns SYNACK on (spurious) SYN retransmits, but
keeps the SYNACK timer running independently. Thus the timer may
fire right after the SYNACK retransmit and causes a SYN-SYNACK
cross-fire burst.
Adopt the fast retransmit/recovery idea in established state by
re-arming the SYNACK timer after the fast (SYNACK) retransmit. The
timer may fire late up to 500ms due to the current SYNACK timer wheel,
but it's OK to be conservative when network is congested. Eric's new
listener design should address this issue.

The following patchset contains relevant updates for the Netfilter
tree, they are:
* Enhancements for ipset: Add the counter extension for sets, this
information can be used from the iptables set match, to change
the matching behaviour. Jozsef required to add the extension
infrastructure and moved the existing timeout support upon it.
This also includes a change in net/sched/em_ipset to adapt it to
the new extension structure.
* Enhancements for performance boosting in nfnetlink_queue: Add new
configuration flags that allows user-space to receive big packets (GRO)
and to disable checksumming calculation. This were proposed by Eric
Dumazet during the Netfilter Workshop 2013 in Copenhagen. Florian
Westphal was kind enough to find the time to materialize the proposal.
* A sparse fix from Simon, he noticed it in the SCTP NAT helper, the fix
required a change in the interface of sctp_end_cksum.

Change the type of the crc32 parameter of sctp_end_cksum()
from __be32 to __u32 to reflect that fact that it is passed
to cpu_to_le32().
There are five in-tree users of sctp_end_cksum().
The following four had warnings flagged by sparse which are
no longer present with this change.

net/sctp/input.c:sctp_rcv_checksum()
net/sctp/output.c:sctp_packet_transmit()
The fifth user is net/netfilter/nf_nat_proto_sctp.c:sctp_manip_pkt().
It has been updated to pass a __u32 instead of a __be32,
the value in question was already calculated in cpu byte-order.
net/netfilter/nf_nat_proto_sctp.c:sctp_manip_pkt() has also
been updated to assign the return value of sctp_end_cksum()
directly to a variable of type __le32, matching the
type of the return value. Previously the return value
was assigned to a variable of type __be32 and then that variable
was finally assigned to another variable of type __le32.

avoid it in the future. However, userspace needs to be prepared
to receive larger-than-mtu-packets (which will also have incorrect
l3/l4 checksums), so we cannot simply remove it.
The plan is to add a per-queue feature flag that userspace can
set when binding the queue.
The problem is that in nf_queue, we only have a queue number,
not the queue context/configuration settings.
This patch should have no impact other than the skb_gso_segment
call now being in a function that has access to the queue config
data.
A new size attribute in nf_queue_entry is needed so
nfnetlink_queue can duplicate the entry of the gso skb
when segmenting the skb while also copying the route key.
The follow up patch adds switch to disable skb_gso_segment when
queue config says so.

required by future patch that will need to duplicate the
nf_queue_entry, bumping refcounts of the copy.

The new revision of the set match supports to match the counters
and to suppress updating the counters at matching too.
At the set:list types, the updating of the subcounters can be
suppressed as well.
