There is a justifying patch for Stephen's patches. Stephen's patches
disallows using a port range of one single port and brakes the meaning
of the 'remaining' variable, in some places it has different meaning.
My patch gives back the sense of 'remaining' variable. It should mean
how many ports are remaining and nothing else. Also my patch allows
using a single port.
I sure we must be able to use mentioned port range, this does not
restricted by documentation and does not brake current behavior.

No one has bothered to set strategy routine for the the netfilter sysctls that
return jiffies to be sysctl_jiffies.
So it appears the sys_sysctl path is unused and untested, so this patch
removes the binary sysctl numbers.
Which fixes the netfilter oops in 2.6.23-rc2-mm2 for me.

In the IPV6_FL_A_GET case the hash is checked for flowlabels
with the given label. If it is not found, the lock, protecting
the hash, is dropped to be re-get for writing. After this a
newly allocated entry is inserted, but no checks are performed
to catch a classical SMP race, when the conflicting label may
be inserted on another cpu.
Use the (currently unused) return value from fl_intern() to
return the conflicting entry (if found) and re-check, whether
we can reuse it (IPV6_FL_F_EXCL) or return -EEXISTS.
Also add the comment, about why not re-lookup the current
sock for conflicting flowlabel entry.

This patch adds a new field to xfrm states called inner_mode. The existing
mode object is renamed to outer_mode.
This is the first part of an attempt to fix inter-family transforms. As it
is we always use the outer family when determining which mode to use. As a
result we may end up shoving IPv4 packets into netfilter6 and vice versa.
What we really want is to use the inner family for the first part of outbound
processing and the outer family for the second part. For inbound processing
we'd use the opposite pairing.
I've also added a check to prevent silly combinations such as transport mode
with inter-family transforms.

Combining RO and AH/ESP/IPCOMP does not make sense. So this patch adds a
check in the state initialisation function to prevent this.
This allows us to safely remove the mode input function of RO since it

know about it through an OOPS instead of it slipping past silently.

It is convenient to have a pointer from xfrm_state to address-specific
functions such as the output function for a family. Currently the
address-specific policy code calls out to the xfrm state code to get
those pointers when we could get it in an easier way via the state
itself.
This patch adds an xfrm_state_afinfo to xfrm_mode (since they're
address-specific) and changes the policy code to use it. I've also
added an owner field to do reference counting on the module providing
the afinfo even though it isn't strictly necessary today since IPv6
can't be unloaded yet.

Currently BEET mode does not reinject the packet back into the stack
like tunnel mode does. Since BEET should behave just like tunnel mode
this is incorrect.
This patch fixes this by introducing a flags field to xfrm_mode that
tells the IPsec code whether it should terminate and reinject the packet
back into the stack.
It then sets the flag for BEET and tunnel mode.
I've also added a number of missing BEET checks elsewhere where we check
whether a given mode is a tunnel or not.

Not every transform needs to zap ip_summed. For example, a pure tunnel
mode encapsulation does not affect the hardware checksum at all. In fact,
every algorithm (that needs this) other than AH6 already does its own
ip_summed zapping.
This patch moves the zapping into AH6 which is in line with what IPv4 does.
Possible future optimisation: Checksum the data as we copy them in IPComp.

Currently xfrm6_rcv_spi gets the nexthdr value itself from the packet.

Just perform the kzalloc() allocation and setup common

to the caller to initialize the rest.
The inet_frag_alloc() may return NULL, so check the

ugly, but the xxx_frag_alloc() will be removed soon.
The xxx_expire() timer callbacks are patches,

This routine checks for the existence of a given entry
in the hash table and inserts the new one if needed.
The ->equal callback is used to compare two frag_queue-s
together, but this one is temporary and will be removed
later. The netfilter code and the ipv6 one use the same

* LRU list
* rw lock

* the number of queues

* secret timer
Move all this stuff into one structure (struct inet_frags)
to make it possible use them uniformly in the future. Like
with the previous patch this mostly consists of hunks like
- write_lock(&ipfrag_lock);

From RFC 3493, Section 5.2:
IPV6_MULTICAST_IF
Set the interface to use for outgoing multicast packets. The
argument is the index of the interface to use. If the
interface index is specified as zero, the system selects the
interface (for example, by looking up the address in a routing
table and using the resulting interface).
This patch adds support for (index == 0) to reset the value to it's
original state, allowing the system to choose the best interface. IPv4

This patch make processing netlink user -> kernel messages synchronious.
This change was inspired by the talk with Alexey Kuznetsov about current
netlink messages processing. He says that he was badly wrong when introduced
asynchronious user -> kernel communication.
The call netlink_unicast is the only path to send message to the kernel
netlink socket. But, unfortunately, it is also used to send data to the
user.
Before this change the user message has been attached to the socket queue
and sk->sk_data_ready was called. The process has been blocked until all
pending messages were processed. The bad thing is that this processing
may occur in the arbitrary process context.
This patch changes nlk->data_ready callback to get 1 skb and force packet
processing right in the netlink_unicast.
Kernel -> user path in netlink_unicast remains untouched.
EINTR processing for in netlink_run_queue was changed. It forces rtnl_lock
drop, but the process remains in the cycle until the message will be fully
processed. So, there is no need to use this kludges now.
