I believe all the below memory barriers only matter on SMP so
therefore the smp_* variant of the barrier should be used.
I'm wondering if the barrier in net/ipv4/inet_timewait_sock.c should be
dropped entirely. schedule_work's implementation currently implies a
memory barrier and I think sane semantics of schedule_work() should imply
a memory barrier, as needed so the caller shouldn't have to worry.
It's not quite obvious why the barrier in net/packet/af_packet.c is
needed; maybe it should be implied through flush_dcache_page?

Commit 590bdf7fd2 introduced a regression
in match/target hook validation. mark_source_chains builds a bitmask
for each rule representing the hooks it can be reached from, which is
then used by the matches and targets to make sure they are only called
from valid hooks. The patch moved the match/target specific validation
before the mark_source_chains call, at which point the mask is always zero.
This patch returns back to the old order and moves the standard checks
to mark_source_chains. This allows to get rid of a special case for
standard targets as a nice side-effect.

Currently the behaviour of disable_xfrm is inconsistent between
locally generated and forwarded packets. For locally generated
packets disable_xfrm disables the policy lookup if it is set on
the output device, for forwarded traffic however it looks at the
input device. This makes it impossible to disable xfrm on all
devices but a dummy device and use normal routing to direct
traffic to that device.
Always use the output device when checking disable_xfrm.

This patch deprecates the existing use of an arbitrary value TFRC_SMALLEST_P
for low-threshold values of p. This avoids masking low-resolution errors.
Instead, the code now checks against real boundaries (implemented by preceding
patch) and provides warnings whenever a real value falls below the threshold.
If such messages are observed, it is a better solution to take this as an
indication that the lookup table needs to be re-engineered.
Changelog:
----------
This patch
* makes handling all TFRC resolution errors local to the TFRC library
* removes unnecessary test whether X_calc is 'infinity' due to p==0 -- this
condition is already caught by tfrc_calc_x()
* removes setting ccid3hctx_p = TFRC_SMALLEST_P in ccid3_hc_tx_packet_recv
since this is now done by the TFRC library
* updates BUG_ON test in ccid3_hc_tx_no_feedback_timer to take into account
that p now is either 0 (and then X_calc is irrelevant), or it is > 0; since
the handling of TFRC_SMALLEST_P is now taken care of in the tfrc library
Justification:
--------------
The TFRC code uses a lookup table which has a bounded resolution.
The lowest possible value of the loss event rate `p' which can be
resolved is currently 0.0001. Substituting this lower threshold for
p when p is less than 0.0001 results in a huge, exponentially-growing
error. The error can be computed by the following formula:
(f(0.0001) - f(p))/f(p) * 100 for p < 0.0001
Currently the solution is to use an (arbitrary) value
TFRC_SMALLEST_P = 40 * 1E-6 = 0.00004
and to consider all values below this value as `virtually zero'. Due to
the exponentially growing resolution error, this is not a good idea, since
it hides the fact that the table can not resolve practically occurring cases.
Already at p == TFRC_SMALLEST_P, the error is as high as 58.19%!

1) For the forward X_calc lookup, it
* protects effectively against RTT=0 (this case is possible), by
returning the maximal lookup value instead of just setting it to 1
* reformulates the array-bounds exceeded condition: this only happens
if p is greater than 1E6 (due to the scaling)
* the case of negative indices can now with certainty be excluded,
since documentation shows that the formulas are within bounds
* additional protection against p = 0 (would give divide-by-zero)
2) For the reverse lookup, it warns against
* protects against exceeding array bounds
* now returns 0 if f(p) = 0, due to function definition
* warns about minimal resolution error and returns the smallest table
value instead of p=0 [this would mask congestion conditions]

This fixes the following small error in tfrc_calc_x_reverse_lookup.
1) The table is generated by the following equations:
lookup[index][0] = g((index+1) * 1000000/TFRC_CALC_X_ARRSIZE);
lookup[index][1] = g((index+1) * TFRC_CALC_X_SPLIT/TFRC_CALC_X_ARRSIZE);
where g(q) is 1E6 * f(q/1E6)
2) The reverse lookup assigns an entry in lookup[index][small]
3) This index needs to match the above, i.e.
* if small=0 then
p = (index + 1) * 1000000/TFRC_CALC_X_ARRSIZE
* if small=1 then
p = (index+1) * TFRC_CALC_X_SPLIT/TFRC_CALC_X_ARRSIZE
These are exactly the changes that the patch makes; previously the code did
not conform to the way the lookup table was generated (this difference resulted
in a mean error of about 1.12%).

This avoids a (harmless) warning message being printed at the DCCP server
(the receiver of a DCCP half connection).
Incoming packets are both directed to
* ccid_hc_rx_packet_recv() for the server half
* ccid_hc_tx_packet_recv() for the client half
The message gets printed since on a server the client half is currently not
sending data packets.
This is resolved for the moment by checking the DCCP-role first. In future
times (bidirectional DCCP connections), this test may have to be more
sophisticated.

The main object of this patch is the following bug:
==> In ccid3_hc_tx_packet_recv, the parameters p and X_recv were updated
_after_ the send rate was calculated. This is clearly an error and is
resolved by re-ordering statements.
In addition,
* r_sample is converted from u32 to long to check whether the time difference
was negative (it would otherwise be converted to a large u32 value)
* protection against RTT=0 (this is possible) is provided in a further patch
* t_elapsed is also converted to long, to match the type of r_sample
* adds a a more debugging information regarding current send rates
* various trivial comment/documentation updates

This bug resulted in ccid3_hc_tx_send_packet returning negative
delay values, which in turn triggered silently dequeueing packets in
dccp_write_xmit. As a result, only a few out of the submitted packets made
it at all onto the network. Occasionally, when dccp_wait_for_ccid was
involved, this also triggered a bug warning since ccid3_hc_tx_send_packet
returned a negative value (which in reality was a negative delay value).
The cause for this bug lies in the comparison
if (delay >= hctx->ccid3hctx_delta)
return delay / 1000L;
The type of `delay' is `long', that of ccid3hctx_delta is `u32'. When comparing
negative long values against u32 values, the test returned `true' whenever delay
was smaller than 0 (meaning the packet was overdue to send).
The fix is by casting, subtracting, and then testing the difference with
regard to 0.
This has been tested and shown to work.

The TFRC nofeedback timer normally expires after the maximum of 4
RTTs and twice the current send interval (RFC 3448, 4.3). On LANs
with a small RTT this can mean a high processing load and reduced
performance, since then the nofeedback timer is triggered very
frequently.
This patch provides a configuration option to set the bound for the
nofeedback timer, using as default 100 milliseconds.
By setting the configuration option to 0, strict RFC 3448 behaviour
can be enforced for the nofeedback timer.
