Herbert Xu 005011211f [IPSEC]: Add xfrm_input_state helper
This patch adds the xfrm_input_state helper function which returns the
current xfrm state being processed on the input path given an sk_buff.
This is currently only used by xfrm_input but will be used by ESP upon
asynchronous resumption.

Pavel Emelyanov b8e1f9b5c3 [NET] sysctl: make sysctl_somaxconn per-namespace
Just move the variable on the struct net and adjust

Others sysctls from sys.net.core table are more
difficult to virtualize (i.e. make them per-namespace),
but I'll look at them as well a bit later.

Pavel Emelyanov 024626e36d [NET] sysctl: make the sys.net.core sysctls per-namespace
Making them per-namespace is required for the following
two reasons:

 First, some ctl values have a per-namespace meaning.
 Second, making them writable from the sub-namespace
 is an isolation hole.

So I introduce the pernet operations to create these
tables. For init_net I use the existing statically
declared tables, for sub-namespace they are duplicated
and the write bits are removed from the mode.

Daniel Lezcano 433d49c3bb [IPV6]: Make ip6_route_init to return an error code.
The route initialization function does not return any value to notify
if the initialization is successful or not. This patch checks all
calls made for the initilization in order to return a value for the
caller.

Unfortunately, proc_net_fops_create will return a NULL pointer if
CONFIG_PROC_FS is off, so we can not check the return code without an
ifdef CONFIG_PROC_FS block in the ip6_route_init function.

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.

Johannes Berg dabeb344f5 mac80211: provide interface iterator for drivers
Sometimes drivers need to know which interfaces are associated with
their hardware. Rather than forcing those drivers to keep track of
the interfaces that were added, this adds an iteration function to
mac80211.

As it is intended to be used from the interface add/remove callbacks,
the iteration function may currently only be called under RTNL.

Pavel Emelyanov 42a73808ed [RAW]: Consolidate proc interface.
Both ipv6/raw.c and ipv4/raw.c use the seq files to walk
through the raw sockets hash and show them.

The "walking" code is rather huge, but is identical in both
cases. The difference is the hash table to walk over and
the protocol family to check (this was not in the first
virsion of the patch, which was noticed by YOSHIFUJI)

Make the ->open store the needed hash table and the family
on the allocated raw_iter_state and make the start/next/stop
callbacks work with it.

This removes most of the code.

Pavel Emelyanov b673e4dfc8 [RAW]: Introduce raw_hashinfo structure
The ipv4/raw.c and ipv6/raw.c contain many common code (most
of which is proc interface) which can be consolidated.

Most of the places to consolidate deal with the raw sockets
hashtable, so introduce a struct raw_hashinfo which describes
the raw sockets hash.

Pavel Emelyanov 7bc54c9030 [IPv4] RAW: Compact the API for the kernel
The raw sockets functions are explicitly used from
inside the kernel in two places:

1. in ip_local_deliver_finish to intercept skb-s
2. in icmp_error

For this purposes many functions and even data structures,
that are naturally internal for raw protocol, are exported.

Compact the API to two functions and hide all the other
(including hash table and rwlock) inside the net/ipv4/raw.c

This is done by making packet_sklist_lock and packet_sklist per

namespace.

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.
