Herbert Xu 1781f7f580 [UDP]: Restore missing inDatagrams increments
The previous move of the the UDP inDatagrams counter caused the
counting of encapsulated packets, SUNRPC data (as opposed to call)
packets and RXRPC packets to go missing.

This patch restores all of these.

Pavel Emelyanov 33eb9cfc70 [NET]: Isolate the net/core/ sysctl table
Using ctl paths we can put all the stuff, related to net/core/
sysctl table, into one file and remove all the references on it.

As a good side effect this hides the "core_table" name from
the global scope :)

Patrick McHardy 02f014d888 [NETFILTER]: nf_queue: move list_head/skb/id to struct nf_info
Move common fields for queue management to struct nf_info and rename it
to struct nf_queue_entry. The avoids one allocation/free per packet and
simplifies the code a bit.

Alternatively we could add some private room at the tail, but since
all current users use identical structs this seems easier.

Interface iteration in mac80211 can be done without holding any

it's turning out that multi-BSS AP support can be much simpler
in a driver if ieee80211_iterate_active_interfaces can be called
without holding locks. This converts it to use RCU, it adds a
requirement that the callback it invokes cannot sleep.

Ilpo Järvinen 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.

Pavel Emelyanov c0ef877b2c [NET]: Move sock_valbool_flag to socket.c
The sock_valbool_flag() helper is used in setsockopt to
set or reset some flag on the sock. This helper is required
in the net/socket.c only, so move it there.

Besides, patch two places in sys_setsockopt() that repeat
this helper functionality manually.

Since this is not a bugfix, but a trivial cleanup, I
prepared this patch against net-2.6.25, but it also
applies (with a single offset) to the latest net-2.6.

Eric Dumazet 20fea08b5f [NET]: Move Qdisc_class_ops and Qdisc_ops in appropriate sections.
Qdisc_class_ops are const, and Qdisc_ops are mostly read.

Using "const" and "__read_mostly" qualifiers helps to reduce false
sharing.

Patrick McHardy 6e23ae2a48 [NETFILTER]: Introduce NF_INET_ hook values
The IPv4 and IPv6 hook values are identical, yet some code tries to figure
out the "correct" value by looking at the address family. Introduce NF_INET_*
values for both IPv4 and IPv6. The old values are kept in a #ifndef __KERNEL__
section for userspace compatibility.

Herbert Xu 1bf06cd2e3 [IPSEC]: Add async resume support on input
This patch adds support for async resumptions on input.  To do so, the
transform would return -EINPROGRESS and subsequently invoke the
function xfrm_input_resume to resume processing.

Herbert Xu 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.

Herbert Xu d26f398400 [IPSEC]: Make x->lastused an unsigned long
Currently x->lastused is u64 which means that it cannot be
read/written atomically on all architectures.  David Miller observed
that the value stored in it is only an unsigned long which is always
atomic.

So based on his suggestion this patch changes the internal
representation from u64 to unsigned long while the user-interface
still refers to it as u64.

Herbert Xu 716062fd4c [IPSEC]: Merge most of the input path
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.

Herbert Xu 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.
