The static initial tables are pretty large, and after the net

The respective xt_table structures already have most of the metadata
needed for hook setup. Add a 'priority' field to struct xt_table so
that xt_hook_link() can be called with a reduced number of arguments.
So should we be having more tables in the future, it comes at no
static cost (only runtime, as before) - space saved:

As noticed by Jon Masters <jonathan@jonmasters.org>, the conntrack hash
size is global and not per namespace, but modifiable at runtime through
/sys/module/nf_conntrack/hashsize. Changing the hash size will only
resize the hash in the current namespace however, so other namespaces
will use an invalid hash size. This can cause crashes when enlarging
the hashsize, or false negative lookups when shrinking it.
Move the hash size into the per-namespace data and only use the global
hash size to initialize the per-namespace value when instanciating a
new namespace. Additionally restrict hash resizing to init_net for
now as other namespaces are not handled currently.

nf_conntrack_cachep is currently shared by all netns instances, but
because of SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU special semantics, this is wrong.
If we use a shared slab cache, one object can instantly flight between
one hash table (netns ONE) to another one (netns TWO), and concurrent
reader (doing a lookup in netns ONE, 'finding' an object of netns TWO)
can be fooled without notice, because no RCU grace period has to be
observed between object freeing and its reuse.
We dont have this problem with UDP/TCP slab caches because TCP/UDP
hashtables are global to the machine (and each object has a pointer to
its netns).
If we use per netns conntrack hash tables, we also *must* use per netns
conntrack slab caches, to guarantee an object can not escape from one
namespace to another one.

This patch adds GSO/checksum offload to af_packet sockets using
virtio_net_hdr. Based on Rusty's patch to add this support to tun.
It allows GSO/checksum offload to be enabled when using raw socket
backend with virtio_net.
Adds PACKET_VNET_HDR socket option to prepend virtio_net_hdr in the
receive path and process/skip virtio_net_hdr in the send path. This
option is only allowed with SOCK_RAW sockets attached to ethernet
type devices.
v2 updates
----------
Michael's Comments
- Perform length check in packet_snd() when GSO is off even when
vnet_hdr is present.
- Check for SKB_GSO_FCOE type and return -EINVAL
- don't allow tx/rx ring when vnet_hdr is enabled.
Herbert's Comments
- Removed ethernet specific code.
- protocol value is assumed to be passed in by the caller.

This patch introduces the similar helpers as those already done for uc list.
However multicast lists are no list_head lists but "mademanually". The three
macros added by this patch will make the transition of mc_list to list_head
smooth in two steps:
1) convert all drivers to use these macros (with the original iterator of type
"struct dev_mc_list")
2) once all drivers are converted, convert list type and iterators to "struct
netdev_hw_addr" in one patch.
>From now on, drivers can (and should) use "netdev_for_each_mc_addr" to iterate
over the addresses with iterator of type "struct netdev_hw_addr". Also macros
"netdev_mc_count" and "netdev_mc_empty" to read list's length. This is the state
which should be reached in all drivers.

In order to use macvlan with qemu and other tools that require
a tap file descriptor, the macvtap driver adds a small backend
with a character device with the same interface as the tun
driver, with a minimum set of features.
Macvtap interfaces are created in the same way as macvlan
interfaces using ip link, but the netif is just used as a
handle for configuration and accounting, while the data
goes through the chardev. Each macvtap interface has its
own character device, simplifying permission management
significantly over the generic tun/tap driver.

Getting it is not used, let's drop support for notifications about
(un)registered events from connector.
Another option was to check credentials on receiving, but we can always
restore it without bugs if needed, but genetlink has a wider code base

other clients were (un)registered.

When an injected frame gets buffered for a powersave STA or filtered

again, which doesn't work because it's gone at that point.
This patch adds a new flag for checking the availability of a radiotap
header, so that it only attempts to parse it once, reusing the tx info
on the next call to ieee80211_tx().

If a device has multiple MAC addresses, userspace will

MAC addresses to vary by a bitmask.
If a driver exports multiple addresses, it is assumed
that it will be able to deal with that many different
addresses, which need not necessarily match the ones
programmed into the device; if a mask is set then the
device should deal addresses within that mask based
on an arbitrary "base address".
