Dipankar Sarma b835996f62 [PATCH] files: lock-free fd look-up
With the use of RCU in files structure, the look-up of files using fds can now
be lock-free.  The lookup is protected by rcu_read_lock()/rcu_read_unlock().
This patch changes the readers to use lock-free lookup.

YOSHIFUJI Hideaki 2dac4b96b9 [IPV6]: Repair Incoming Interface Handling for Raw Socket.
Due to changes to enforce checking interface bindings,
sockets did not see loopback packets bound for our local address
on our interface.

e.g.)
  When we ping6 fe80::1%eth0, skb->dev points loopback_dev while
  IP6CB(skb)->iif indicates eth0.

This patch fixes the issue by using appropriate incoming interface,
in the sense of scoping architecture.

Jesper Juhl 573dbd9596 [CRYPTO]: crypto_free_tfm() callers no longer need to check for NULL
Since the patch to add a NULL short-circuit to crypto_free_tfm() went in,
there's no longer any need for callers of that function to check for NULL.
This patch removes the redundant NULL checks and also a few similar checks
for NULL before calls to kfree() that I ran into while doing the
crypto_free_tfm bits.

I've succesfuly compile tested this patch, and a kernel with the patch 
applied boots and runs just fine.

When I posted the patch to LKML (and other lists/people on Cc) it drew the
following comments :

 J. Bruce Fields commented
  "I've no problem with the auth_gss or nfsv4 bits.--b."

 Sridhar Samudrala said
  "sctp change looks fine."

 Herbert Xu signed off on the patch.

So, I guess this is ready to be dropped into -mm and eventually mainline.

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 6687e988d9 [ICSK]: Move TCP congestion avoidance members to icsk
This changeset basically moves tcp_sk()->{ca_ops,ca_state,etc} to inet_csk(),
minimal renaming/moving done in this changeset to ease review.

Most of it is just changes of struct tcp_sock * to struct sock * parameters.

With this we move to a state closer to two interesting goals:

1. Generalisation of net/ipv4/tcp_diag.c, becoming inet_diag.c, being used
   for any INET transport protocol that has struct inet_hashinfo and are
   derived from struct inet_connection_sock. Keeps the userspace API, that will
   just not display DCCP sockets, while newer versions of tools can support
   DCCP.

2. INET generic transport pluggable Congestion Avoidance infrastructure, using
   the current TCP CA infrastructure with DCCP.

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 463c84b97f [NET]: Introduce inet_connection_sock
This creates struct inet_connection_sock, moving members out of struct
tcp_sock that are shareable with other INET connection oriented
protocols, such as DCCP, that in my private tree already uses most of
these members.

The functions that operate on these members were renamed, using a
inet_csk_ prefix while not being moved yet to a new file, so as to
ease the review of these changes.

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 8feaf0c0a5 [INET]: Generalise tcp_tw_bucket, aka TIME_WAIT sockets
This paves the way to generalise the rest of the sock ID lookup
routines and saves some bytes in TCPv4 TIME_WAIT sockets on distro
kernels (where IPv6 is always built as a module):

[root@qemu ~]# grep tw_sock /proc/slabinfo
tw_sock_TCPv6  0  0  128  31  1
tw_sock_TCP    0  0   96  41  1
[root@qemu ~]#

Now if a protocol wants to use the TIME_WAIT generic infrastructure it
only has to set the sk_prot->twsk_obj_size field with the size of its
inet_timewait_sock derived sock and proto_register will create
sk_prot->twsk_slab, for now its only for INET sockets, but we can
introduce timewait_sock later if some non INET transport protocolo
wants to use this stuff.

Next changesets will take advantage of this new infrastructure to
generalise even more TCP code.

[acme@toy net-2.6.14]$ grep built-in /tmp/before.size /tmp/after.size
/tmp/before.size: 188646   11764    5068  205478   322a6 net/ipv4/built-in.o

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo a55ebcc4c4 [INET]: Move bind_hash from tcp_sk to inet_sk
This should really be in a inet_connection_sock, but I'm leaving it
for a later optimization, when some more fields common to INET
transport protocols now in tcp_sk or inet_sk will be chunked out into
inet_connection_sock, for now its better to concentrate on getting the
changes in the core merged to leave the DCCP tree with only DCCP
specific code.

Next changesets will take advantage of this move to generalise things
like tcp_bind_hash, tcp_put_port, tcp_inherit_port, making the later
receive a inet_hashinfo parameter, and even __tcp_tw_hashdance, etc in
the future, when tcp_tw_bucket gets transformed into the struct
timewait_sock hierarchy.

tcp_destroy_sock also is eligible as soon as tcp_orphan_count gets
moved to sk_prot.

A cascade of incremental changes will ultimately make the tcp_lookup
functions be fully generic.

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 0f7ff9274e [INET]: Just rename the TCP hashtable functions/structs to inet_
This is to break down the complexity of the series of patches,
making it very clear that this one just does:

1. renames tcp_ prefixed hashtable functions and data structures that
   were already mostly generic to inet_ to share it with DCCP and
   other INET transport protocols.

2. Removes not used functions (__tb_head & tb_head)

3. Removes some leftover prototypes in the headers (tcp_bucket_unlock &
   tcp_v4_build_header)

Next changesets will move tcp_sk(sk)->bind_hash to inet_sock so that we can
make functions such as tcp_inherit_port, __tcp_inherit_port, tcp_v4_get_port,
__tcp_put_port,  generic and get others like tcp_destroy_sock closer to generic
(tcp_orphan_count will go to sk->sk_prot to allow this).

Eventually most of these functions will be used passing the transport protocol
inet_hashinfo structure.

There is nothing IPv4-specific in it.  In fact, it was already used by
IPv6, too...  Upcoming nfnetlink_queue code will use it for any kind
of packet.

David S. Miller f2ccd8fa06 [NET]: Kill skb->real_dev
Bonding just wants the device before the skb_bond()
decapsulation occurs, so simply pass that original
device into packet_type->func() as an argument.

It remains to be seen whether we can use this same
exact thing to get rid of skb->input_dev as well.

Harald Welte 6869c4d8e0 [NETFILTER]: reduce netfilter sk_buff enlargement
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

David S. Miller d5d283751e [TCP]: Document non-trivial locking path in tcp_v{4,6}_get_port().
This trips up a lot of folks reading this code.
Put an unlikely() around the port-exhaustion test
for good measure.

The checksum needs to be filled in on output, after mangling a packet
ip_summed needs to be reset.
