b209639e8a [IPVS]: Create synced connections with their real state
With this patch the synced connections are created with their real state,
which can be changed on the next synchronizations if necessary. This way
on fail-over all the connections will be treated according to their actual
state, causing no scheduling problems (the active and the nonactive
connections have different weights in the schedulers).
The backwards compatibility is preserved and the existing tools will show
the true connection states even on the backup director.

This changes the SIWTXPOWER ioctl to also accept a txpower setting of

adjust tx power, we select the tx power level of the current channel. While
this is kind of a hack, it certainly saves some iwconfig users from headaches.

68f8353b48 [TCP]: Rewrite SACK block processing & sack_recv_cache use
Key points of this patch are:

  - In case new SACK information is advance only type, no skb
    processing below previously discovered highest point is done
  - Optimize cases below highest point too since there's no need
    to always go up to highest point (which is very likely still
    present in that SACK), this is not entirely true though
    because I'm dropping the fastpath_skb_hint which could
    previously optimize those cases even better. Whether that's
    significant, I'm not too sure.

Currently it will provide skipping by walking. Combined with
RB-tree, all skipping would become fast too regardless of window
size (can be done incrementally later).

Previously a number of cases in TCP SACK processing fails to
take advantage of costly stored information in sack_recv_cache,
most importantly, expected events such as cumulative ACK and new
hole ACKs. Processing on such ACKs result in rather long walks
building up latencies (which easily gets nasty when window is
huge). Those latencies are often completely unnecessary
compared with the amount of _new_ information received, usually
for cumulative ACK there's no new information at all, yet TCP
walks whole queue unnecessary potentially taking a number of
costly cache misses on the way, etc.!

Since the inclusion of highest_sack, there's a lot information
that is very likely redundant (SACK fastpath hint stuff,
fackets_out, highest_sack), though there's no ultimate guarantee
that they'll remain the same whole the time (in all unearthly
scenarios). Take advantage of this knowledge here and drop
fastpath hint and use direct access to highest SACKed skb as
a replacement.

Effectively "special cased" fastpath is dropped. This change
adds some complexity to introduce better coveraged "fastpath",
though the added complexity should make TCP behave more cache
friendly.

The current ACK's SACK blocks are compared against each cached
block individially and only ranges that are new are then scanned
by the high constant walk. For other parts of write queue, even
when in previously known part of the SACK blocks, a faster skip
function is used (if necessary at all). In addition, whenever
possible, TCP fast-forwards to highest_sack skb that was made
available by an earlier patch. In typical case, no other things
but this fast-forward and mandatory markings after that occur
making the access pattern quite similar to the former fastpath
"special case".

DSACKs are special case that must always be walked.

The local to recv_sack_cache copying could be more intelligent
w.r.t DSACKs which are likely to be there only once but that
is left to a separate patch.

85cc391c0e [TCP]: non-FACK SACK follows conservative SACK loss recovery
Many assumptions that are true when no reordering or other
strange events happen are not a part of the RFC3517. FACK
implementation is based on such assumptions. Previously (before
the rewrite) the non-FACK SACK was basically doing fast rexmit
and then it times out all skbs when first cumulative ACK arrives,
which cannot really be called SACK based recovery :-).

RFC3517 SACK disables these things:
- Per SKB timeouts & head timeout entry to recovery
- Marking at least one skb while in recovery (RFC3517 does this
  only for the fast retransmission but not for the other skbs
  when cumulative ACKs arrive in the recovery)
- Sacktag's loss detection flavors B and C (see comment before
  tcp_sacktag_write_queue)

This does not implement the "last resort" rule 3 of NextSeg, which
allows retransmissions also when not enough SACK blocks have yet
arrived above a segment for IsLost to return true [RFC3517].

The implementation differs from RFC3517 in these points:
- Rate-halving is used instead of FlightSize / 2
- Instead of using dupACKs to trigger the recovery, the number
  of SACK blocks is used as FACK does with SACK blocks+holes
  (which provides more accurate number). It seems that the
  difference can affect negatively only if the receiver does not
  generate SACK blocks at all even though it claimed to be
  SACK-capable.
- Dupthresh is not a constant one. Dynamical adjustments include
  both holes and sacked segments (equal to what FACK has) due to
  complexity involved in determining the number sacked blocks
  between highest_sack and the reordered segment. Thus it's will
  be an over-estimate.

Implementation note:

tcp_clean_rtx_queue doesn't need a lost_cnt tweak because head
skb at that point cannot be SACKED_ACKED (nor would such
situation last for long enough to cause problems).

f577111302 [TCP]: Extend reordering detection to cover CA_Loss partially
This implements more accurately what is stated in sacktag's
overall comment:

  "Both of these heuristics are not used in Loss state, when
   we cannot account for retransmits accurately."

When CA_Loss state is entered, the state changer ensures that
undo_marker is only set if no TCPCB_RETRANS skbs were found,
thus having non-zero undo_marker in CA_Loss basically tells
that the R-bits still accurately reflect the current state
of TCP.

60d5fcfb19 [IPSEC]: Remove nhoff from xfrm_input
The nhoff field isn't actually necessary in xfrm_input.  For tunnel
mode transforms we now throw away the output IP header so it makes no
sense to fill in the nexthdr field.  For transport mode we can now let
the function transport_finish do the setting and it knows where the
nexthdr field is.

The only other thing that needs the nexthdr field to be set is the
header extraction code.  However, we can simply move the protocol
extraction out of the generic header extraction.

We want to minimise the amount of info we have to carry around between
transforms as this simplifies the resumption process for async crypto.

As part of the work on asynchronous cryptographic operations, we need
to be able to resume from the spot where they occur.  As such, it
helps if we isolate them to one spot.

This patch moves most of the remaining family-specific processing into
the common input code.

c6581a457e [IPSEC]: Add async resume support on output
This patch adds support for async resumptions on output.  To do so,
the transform would return -EINPROGRESS and subsequently invoke the
function xfrm_output_resume to resume processing.

ef76bc23ef [IPV6]: Add ip6_local_out
Most callers of the LOCAL_OUT chain will set the IP packet length
before doing so.  They also share the same output function dst_output.

This patch creates a new function called ip6_local_out which does all
of that and converts the appropriate users over to it.

Apart from removing duplicate code, it will also help in merging the
IPsec output path.

c439cb2e4b [IPV4]: Add ip_local_out
Most callers of the LOCAL_OUT chain will set the IP packet length and
header checksum before doing so.  They also share the same output
function dst_output.

This patch creates a new function called ip_local_out which does all
of that and converts the appropriate users over to it.

Apart from removing duplicate code, it will also help in merging the
IPsec output path once the same thing is done for IPv6.

227620e295 [IPSEC]: Separate inner/outer mode processing on input
With inter-family transforms the inner mode differs from the outer
mode.  Attempting to handle both sides from the same function means
that it needs to handle both IPv4 and IPv6 which creates duplication
and confusion.

This patch separates the two parts on the input path so that each
function deals with one family only.

In particular, the functions xfrm4_extract_inut/xfrm6_extract_inut
moves the pertinent fields from the IPv4/IPv6 IP headers into a
neutral format stored in skb->cb.  This is then used by the inner mode
input functions to modify the inner IP header.  In this way the input
function no longer has to know about the outer address family.
