916a917dfe netfilter: xtables: provide invoked family value to extensions
By passing in the family through which extensions were invoked, a bit
of data space can be reclaimed. The "family" member will be added to
the parameter structures and the check functions be adjusted.

f7108a20de netfilter: xtables: move extension arguments into compound structure (1/6)
The function signatures for Xtables extensions have grown over time.
It involves a lot of typing/replication, and also a bit of stack space
even if they are not used. Realize an NFWS2008 idea and pack them into
structs. The skb remains outside of the struct so gcc can continue to
apply its optimizations.

This patch does this for match extensions' match functions.

A few ambiguities have also been addressed. The "offset" parameter for
example has been renamed to "fragoff" (there are so many different
offsets already) and "protoff" to "thoff" (there is more than just one
protocol here, so clarify).

73e4022f78 netfilter: split netfilter IPv4 defragmentation into a separate module

53240c2087 tcp: Fix possible double-ack w/ user dma
From: Ali Saidi <saidi@engin.umich.edu>

When TCP receive copy offload is enabled it's possible that
tcp_rcv_established() will cause two acks to be sent for a single
packet. In the case that a tcp_dma_early_copy() is successful,
copied_early is set to true which causes tcp_cleanup_rbuf() to be
called early which can send an ack. Further along in
tcp_rcv_established(), __tcp_ack_snd_check() is called and will
schedule a delayed ACK. If no packets are processed before the delayed
ack timer expires the packet will be acked twice.

33f5f57eeb tcp: kill pointless urg_mode

one gotcha.

Bonus: those funny people who use urg with >= 2^31 write_seq -
snd_una could now rejoice too (that's the only purpose for the
between being there, otherwise a simple compare would have done
the thing). Not that I assume that the rest of the tcp code
happily lives with such mind-boggling numbers :-). Alas, it
turned out to be impossible to set wmem to such numbers anyway,
yes I really tried a big sendfile after setting some wmem but
nothing happened :-). ...Tcp_wmem is int and so is sk_sndbuf...
So I hacked a bit variable to long and found out that it seems
to work... :-)

a3116ac5c2 tcp: Port redirection support for TCP

being the same as the destination address of the incoming
connection. Port redirection used by many transparent proxying
techniques obviously breaks this, so we have to store the original

This patch extends struct inet_request_sock and stores the incoming
destination port value there. It also modifies the handshake code to
use that value as the source port when sending reply packets.

e6f225ebb7 ipvs: Restrict sync message to 255 connections
The nr_conns variable in the sync message header is only eight bits wide
and will overflow on interfaces with a large MTU. As a result the backup
won't parse all connections contained in the sync buffer. On regular
ethernet with an MTU of 1500 this isn't a problem, because we can't
overflow the value, but consider jumbo frames being used on a cross-over
connection between both directors.

We now restrict the size of the sync buffer, so that we never put more
than 255 connections into a single sync buffer.

f5fff5dc8a tcp: advertise MSS requested by user
I'm trying to use the TCP_MAXSEG option to setsockopt() to set the MSS
for both sides of a bidirectional connection.

man tcp says: "If this option is set before connection establishment, it
also changes the MSS value announced to the other end in the initial
packet."

However, the kernel only uses the MTU/route cache to set the advertised
MSS. That means if I set the MSS to, say, 500 before calling connect(),
I will send at most 500-byte packets, but I will still receive 1500-byte
packets in reply.

This is a bug, either in the kernel or the documentation.

This patch (applies to latest net-2.6) reduces the advertised value to
that requested by the user as long as setsockopt() is called before
connect() or accept(). This seems like the behavior that one would
expect as well as that which is documented.

I've tried to make sure that things that depend on the advertised MSS
are set correctly.

since we have lost_cnt_hint in the picture as well needing

With the previous patch, this should mostly remove O(n^2)

006f582c73 tcp: convert retransmit_cnt_hint to seqno
Main benefit in this is that we can then freely point
the retransmit_skb_hint to anywhere we want to because
there's no longer need to know what would be the count
changes involve, and since this is really used only as a
terminator, unnecessary work is one time walk at most,
and if some retransmissions are necessary after that
point later on, the walk is not full waste of time
anyway.

Since retransmit_high must be kept valid, all lost
markers must ensure that.

Now I also have learned how those "holes" in the
rexmittable skbs can appear, mtu probe does them. So
I removed the misleading comment as well.

This patch provides a function to purge all timewait sockets related
to a network namespace. The timewait sockets life cycle is not tied with
the network namespace, that means the timewait sockets stay alive while
the network namespace dies. The timewait sockets are for avoiding to
receive a duplicate packet from the network, if the network namespace is
freed, the network stack is removed, so no chance to receive any packets
from the outside world. Furthermore, having a pending destruction timer
on these sockets with a network namespace freed is not safe and will lead
to an oops if the timer callback which try to access data belonging to 
the namespace like for example in:
	inet_twdr_do_twkill_work
		-> NET_INC_STATS_BH(twsk_net(tw), LINUX_MIB_TIMEWAITED);

Purging the timewait sockets at the network namespace destruction will:
 1) speed up memory freeing for the namespace
 2) fix kernel panic on asynchronous timewait destruction

178f5e494e IPVS: use ipv6_addr_copy()
It is standard to use ipv6_addr_copy() to fill in
the in6 element of a union nf_inet_addr snet.

Thanks to Julius Volz for pointing this out.

f2428ed5e7 ipvs: load balance ipv6 connections from a local process
This allows IPVS to load balance IPv6 connections made by a local process.
For example a proxy server running locally.

External client --> pound:443 -> Local:443 --> IPVS:80 --> RealServer

This is an extenstion to the IPv4 work done in this area
by Siim Põder and Malcolm Turnbull.
