This adds an additional queuing strategy, called pfifo_head_drop,
to remove the oldest skb in the case of an overflow within the queue -
the head element - instead of the last skb (tail). To remove the oldest
skb in congested situations is useful for sensor network environments
where newer packets reflect the superior information.

I'm not sure about rcu stuff near kmem cache destruction:
* checks for non-empty hashes look bogus, they're done _before_
rcu_berrier()
* unregistering netns ops is done before kmem_cache destoy
(as it should), and unregistering involves rcu barriers by itself
So it looks nothing should be done.

The commit 0b5ccb2(title:ipv6: reassembly: use seperate reassembly queues for
conntrack and local delivery) has broken the saddr&&daddr member of
nf_ct_frag6_queue when creating new queue. And then hash value
generated by nf_hashfn() was not equal with that generated by fq_find().
So, a new received fragment can't be inserted to right queue.
The patch fixes the bug with adding member of user to nf_ct_frag6_queue structure.

GC is non-existent in netns, so after you hit GC threshold, no new

Make xfrm4_dst_ops and xfrm6_dst_ops per-netns.
This is not done in a generic way, because it woule waste
(AF_MAX - 2) * sizeof(struct dst_ops) bytes per-netns.
Reorder GC threshold initialization so it'd be done before registering

No matter whether connection track is enabled, an end host should send
an ICMPv4 "Fragment Reassembly Timeout" message when defrag timeout.
The reasons are following two points:
1. RFC 792 says:
>>>> >> > > If a host reassembling a fragmented datagram cannot complete the
>>>> >> > > reassembly due to missing fragments within its time limit it
>>>> >> > > discards the datagram, and it may send a time exceeded message.
>>>> >> > >
>>>> >> > > If fragment zero is not available then no time exceeded need be
>>>> >> > > sent at all.
>>>> >> > >
>>>> >> > > Read more: http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc792.html#ixzz0aOXRD7Wp
2. Patrick McHardy also agrees with this opinion. :-)
About the discussion of this opinion, refer to http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/41649
The patch fixed the problem like this:
When enabling connection track, fragments are received at PRE_ROUTING HOOK.
If they are failed to reassemble, ip_expire() will be called.
Before sending an ICMP "Fragment Reassembly Timeout" message,
the patch searches router table to get the destination entry only for host type.
The patch has been tested on both host type and route type.

- Standardizes description and help text wording for configuration settings
- Removes unneeded blank spaces

If the per device ARP_ACCEPT option is enable, currently we only allow
creating new ARP cache entries for response type gratuitous ARP.
Allowing gratuitous ARP to create new ARP entries (not only to update
existing ones) is useful when we want to avoid unnecessary delays for
the first packet of a stream.
This patch allows request type gratuitous ARP to create new ARP cache
entries as well. This is useful when we want to populate the ARP cache
entries for a large number of hosts on the same LAN.

Hey all-
I was tinkering with dccp recently and noticed that I BUG halted the
kernel when I rmmod-ed the dccp module. The bug halt occured because the page
that I passed to kfree failed the PageCompound and PageSlab test in the slub
implementation of kfree. I tracked the problem down to the following set of
events:
1) dccp, unlike all other uses of kmem_cache_create, allocates a string
dynamically when registering a slab cache. This allocated string is freed when
the cache is destroyed.
2) Normally, (1) is not an issue, but when Slub is in use, it is possible that
caches are 'merged'. This process causes multiple caches of simmilar
configuration to use the same cache data structure. When this happens, the new
name of the cache is effectively dropped.
3) (2) results in kmem_cache_name returning an ambigous value (i.e.
ccid_kmem_cache_destroy, which uses this fuction to retrieve the name pointer
for freeing), is no longer guaranteed that the string it assigned is what is
returned.
4) If such merge event occurs, ccid_kmem_cache_destroy frees the wrong pointer,
which trips over the BUG in the slub implementation of kfree (since its likely
not a slab allocation, but rather a pointer into the static string table
section.
So, what to do about this. At first blush this is pretty clearly a leak in the
information that slub owns, and as such a slub bug. Unfortunately, theres no
really good way to fix it, without exposing slub specific implementation details
to the generic slab interface. Also, even if we could fix this in slub cleanly,
I think the RCU free option would force us to do lots of string duplication, not
only in slub, but in every slab allocator. As such, I'd like to propose this
solution. Basically, I just move the storage for the kmem cache name to the
ccid_operations structure. In so doing, we don't have to do the kstrdup or
kfree when we allocate/free the various caches for dccp, and so we avoid the
problem, by storing names with static memory, rather than heap, the way all
other calls to kmem_cache_create do.
I've tested this out myself here, and it solves the problem quite well.
