6a674e9c75 net: Add support for hardware-offloaded encapsulation
This patch adds support in the kernel for offloading in the NIC Tx and Rx
checksumming for encapsulated packets (such as VXLAN and IP GRE).

For Tx encapsulation offload, the driver will need to set the right bits
in netdev->hw_enc_features. The protocol driver will have to set the
skb->encapsulation bit and populate the inner headers, so the NIC driver will
use those inner headers to calculate the csum in hardware.

For Rx encapsulation offload, the driver will need to set again the
skb->encapsulation flag and the skb->ip_csum to CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY.
In that case the protocol driver should push the decapsulated packet up
to the stack, again with CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY. In ether case, the protocol
driver should set the skb->encapsulation flag back to zero. Finally the
protocol driver should have NETIF_F_RXCSUM flag set in its features.

ce43b03e88 net: move inet_dport/inet_num in sock_common
commit 68835aba4d (net: optimize INET input path further)
moved some fields used for tcp/udp sockets lookup in the first cache
line of struct sock_common.

This patch moves inet_dport/inet_num as well, filling a 32bit hole
on 64 bit arches and reducing number of cache line misses in lookups.

Also change INET_MATCH()/INET_TW_MATCH() to perform the ports match
before addresses match, as this check is more discriminant.

Remove the hash check from MATCH() macros because we dont need to
re validate the hash value after taking a refcount on socket, and
use likely/unlikely compiler hints, as the sk_hash/hash check
makes the following conditional tests 100% predicted by cpu.

Introduce skc_addrpair/skc_portpair pair values to better
document the alignment requirements of the port/addr pairs
used in the various MATCH() macros, and remove some casts.

The namespace check can also be done at last.

This slightly improves TCP/UDP lookup times.

IP/TCP early demux needs inet->rx_dst_ifindex and
TCP needs inet->min_ttl, lets group them together in same cache line.

With help from Ben Hutchings & Joe Perches.

Idea of this patch came after Ling Ma proposal to move skc_hash
to the beginning of struct sock_common, and should allow him
to submit a final version of his patch. My tests show an improvement
doing so.

4cdd34084d netfilter: nf_conntrack_ipv6: improve fragmentation handling
The IPv6 conntrack fragmentation currently has a couple of shortcomings.
Fragmentes are collected in PREROUTING/OUTPUT, are defragmented, the
defragmented packet is then passed to conntrack, the resulting conntrack
information is attached to each original fragment and the fragments then
continue their way through the stack.

Helper invocation occurs in the POSTROUTING hook, at which point only
the original fragments are available. The result of this is that
fragmented packets are never passed to helpers.

This patch improves the situation in the following way:

- If a reassembled packet belongs to a connection that has a helper
  assigned, the reassembled packet is passed through the stack instead
  of the original fragments.

- During defragmentation, the largest received fragment size is stored.
  On output, the packet is refragmented if required. If the largest
  received fragment size exceeds the outgoing MTU, a "packet too big"
  message is generated, thus behaving as if the original fragments
  were passed through the stack from an outside point of view.

- The ipv6_helper() hook function can't receive fragments anymore for
  connections using a helper, so it is switched to use ipv6_skip_exthdr()
  instead of the netfilter specific nf_ct_ipv6_skip_exthdr() and the
  reassembled packets are passed to connection tracking helpers.

The result of this is that we can properly track fragmented packets, but
still generate ICMPv6 Packet too big messages if we would have before.

This patch is also required as a precondition for IPv6 NAT, where NAT
helpers might enlarge packets up to a point that they require
fragmentation. In that case we can't generate Packet too big messages
since the proper MTU can't be calculated in all cases (f.i. when
changing textual representation of a variable amount of addresses),
so the packet is transparently fragmented iff the original packet or
fragments would have fit the outgoing MTU.

4c507d2897 net: implement IP_RECVTOS for IP_PKTOPTIONS
Currently, it is not easily possible to get TOS/DSCP value of packets from
an incoming TCP stream. The mechanism is there, IP_PKTOPTIONS getsockopt
with IP_RECVTOS set, the same way as incoming TTL can be queried. This is
not actually implemented for TOS, though.

This patch adds this functionality, both for IPv4 (IP_PKTOPTIONS) and IPv6
(IPV6_2292PKTOPTIONS). For IPv4, like in the IP_RECVTTL case, the value of
the TOS field is stored from the other party's ACK.

This is needed for proxies which require DSCP transparency. One such example
is at http://zph.bratcheda.org/.

There are only a handful of extension headers specified which
we'd even accept (say 5 or 6), therefore the largest next-header

say 16k.

d1db275dd3 ipv6: ip6mr: support multiple tables
This patch adds support for multiple independant multicast routing instances,
named "tables".

Userspace multicast routing daemons can bind to a specific table instance by
issuing a setsockopt call using a new option MRT6_TABLE. The table number is
stored in the raw socket data and affects all following ip6mr setsockopt(),
getsockopt() and ioctl() calls. By default, a single table (RT6_TABLE_DFLT)
is created with a default routing rule pointing to it. Newly created pim6reg
devices have the table number appended ("pim6regX"), with the exception of
devices created in the default table, which are named just "pim6reg" for
compatibility reasons.

Packets are directed to a specific table instance using routing rules,
similar to how regular routing rules work. Currently iif, oif and mark
are supported as keys, source and destination addresses could be supported
additionally.

Example usage:

- bind pimd/xorp/... to a specific table:

uint32_t table = 123;
setsockopt(fd, SOL_IPV6, MRT6_TABLE, &table, sizeof(table));

- create routing rules directing packets to the new table:

# ip -6 mrule add iif eth0 lookup 123
# ip -6 mrule add oif eth0 lookup 123

e802af9cab IPv6: Generic TTL Security Mechanism (final version)
This patch adds IPv6 support for RFC5082 Generalized TTL Security Mechanism.  

Not to users of mapped address; the IPV6 and IPV4 socket options are seperate.
The server does have to deal with both IPv4 and IPv6 socket options
and the client has to handle the different for each family.

On client:
	int ttl = 255;
	getaddrinfo(argv[1], argv[2], &hint, &result);

	for (rp = result; rp != NULL; rp = rp->ai_next) {
		s = socket(rp->ai_family, rp->ai_socktype, rp->ai_protocol);
		if (s < 0) continue;

		if (rp->ai_family == AF_INET) {
			setsockopt(s, IPPROTO_IP, IP_TTL, &ttl, sizeof(ttl));
		} else if (rp->ai_family == AF_INET6) {
			setsockopt(s, IPPROTO_IPV6,  IPV6_UNICAST_HOPS, 
					&ttl, sizeof(ttl)))
		}
			
		if (connect(s, rp->ai_addr, rp->ai_addrlen) == 0) {
		   ...

On server:
	int minttl = 255 - maxhops;
   
	getaddrinfo(NULL, port, &hints, &result);
	for (rp = result; rp != NULL; rp = rp->ai_next) {
		s = socket(rp->ai_family, rp->ai_socktype, rp->ai_protocol);
		if (s < 0) continue;

		if (rp->ai_family == AF_INET6)
			setsockopt(s, IPPROTO_IPV6,  IPV6_MINHOPCOUNT,
					&minttl, sizeof(minttl));
		setsockopt(s, IPPROTO_IP, IP_MINTTL, &minttl, sizeof(minttl));

c720c7e838 inet: rename some inet_sock fields
In order to have better cache layouts of struct sock (separate zones
for rx/tx paths), we need this preliminary patch.

Goal is to transfert fields used at lookup time in the first
read-mostly cache line (inside struct sock_common) and move sk_refcnt
to a separate cache line (only written by rx path)

This patch adds inet_ prefix to daddr, rcv_saddr, dport, num, saddr,
sport and id fields. This allows a future patch to define these
fields as macros, like sk_refcnt, without name clashes.

e0e6f55d29 ipv6: Fix the size overflow of addrconf_sysctl array
(This patch fixes bug of commit f7734fdf61
 title "make TLLAO option for NA packets configurable")

When the IPV6 conf is used, the function sysctl_set_parent is called and the
array addrconf_sysctl is used as a parameter of the function.

The above patch added new conf "force_tllao" into the array addrconf_sysctl,
but the size of the array was not modified, the static allocated size is
DEVCONF_MAX + 1 but the real size is DEVCONF_MAX + 2, so the problem is
that the function sysctl_set_parent accessed wrong address.

Subject: [PATCH] ipv6: new sysctl for sending TLLAO with unicast NAs

Neighbor advertisements responding to unicast neighbor solicitations
did not include the target link-layer address option. This patch adds
a new sysctl option (disabled by default) which controls whether this
option should be sent even with unicast NAs.

The need for this arose because certain routers expect the TLLAO in
some situations even as a response to unicast NS packets.

Moreover, RFC 2461 recommends sending this to avoid a race condition
(section 4.4, Target link-layer address)

b24a2516d1 ipv6: Add IPV6_PKTINFO sticky option support to setsockopt()
There are three reasons for me to add this support:
1.When no interface is specified in an IPV6_PKTINFO ancillary data
  item, the interface specified in an IPV6_PKTINFO sticky optionis 
  is used.

RFC3542:
6.7.  Summary of Outgoing Interface Selection

   This document and [RFC-3493] specify various methods that affect the
   selection of the packet's outgoing interface.  This subsection
   summarizes the ordering among those in order to ensure deterministic
   behavior.

   For a given outgoing packet on a given socket, the outgoing interface
   is determined in the following order:

   1. if an interface is specified in an IPV6_PKTINFO ancillary data
      item, the interface is used.

   2. otherwise, if an interface is specified in an IPV6_PKTINFO sticky
      option, the interface is used.

2.When no IPV6_PKTINFO ancillary data is received,getsockopt() should 
  return the sticky option value which set with setsockopt().

RFC 3542:
   Issuing getsockopt() for the above options will return the sticky
   option value i.e., the value set with setsockopt().  If no sticky
   option value has been set getsockopt() will return the following
   values:

3.Make the setsockopt implementation POSIX compliant.

ce4a7d0d48 inet{6}_request_sock: Init ->opt and ->pktopts in the constructor
Wei Yongjun noticed that we may call reqsk_free on request sock objects where
the opt fields may not be initialized, fix it by introducing inet_reqsk_alloc
where we initialize ->opt to NULL and set ->pktopts to NULL in
inet6_reqsk_alloc.

7cd636fe9c [IPV6]: IPv6 extension header structures need to be packed.
struct ipv6_opt_hdr is the common structure for IPv6 extension
headers, and it is common to increment the pointer to get
the real content.  On the other hand, since the structure
consists only of 1-byte next-header field and 1-byte length
field, size of that structure depends on architecture; 2 or 4.
Add "packed" attribute to get 2.

87bdc48d30 [IPSEC]: Get rid of ipv6_{auth,esp,comp}_hdr
This patch removes the duplicate ipv6_{auth,esp,comp}_hdr structures since
they're identical to the IPv4 versions.  Duplicating them would only create
problems for ourselves later when we need to add things like extended
sequence numbers.

I've also added transport header type conversion headers for these types
which are now used by the transforms.

20283d84c7 [IPV6]: Remove circular dependency on if_inet6.h
net/if_inet6.h includes linux/ipv6.h which also tries to include
net/if_inet6.h.  Since the latter only needs it for forward
declarations, we can fix this by adding the declarations.

A number of files are implicitly including net/if_inet6.h through
linux/ipv6.h.  They also use net/ipv6.h so this patch includes
net/if_inet6.h there.

59fbb3a61e [IPV6] MIP6: Loadable module support for MIPv6.
This patch makes MIPv6 loadable module named "mip6".

Here is a modprobe.conf(5) example to load it automatically
when user application uses XFRM state for MIPv6:

alias xfrm-type-10-43 mip6
alias xfrm-type-10-60 mip6

Some MIPv6 feature is not included by this modular, however,
it should not be affected to other features like either IPsec
or IPv6 with and without the patch.
We may discuss XFRM, MH (RAW socket) and ancillary data/sockopt
separately for future work.

Loadable features:
* MH receiving check (to send ICMP error back)
* RO header parsing and building (i.e. RH2 and HAO in DSTOPTS)
* XFRM policy/state database handling for RO

These are NOT covered as loadable:
* Home Address flags and its rule on source address selection
* XFRM sub policy (depends on its own kernel option)
* XFRM functions to receive RO as IPv6 extension header
* MH sending/receiving through raw socket if user application
  opens it (since raw socket allows to do so)
* RH2 sending as ancillary data
* RH2 operation with setsockopt(2)
