Eric W. Biederman 6b175b26c1 [NETNS]: Add netns parameter to inet_(dev_)add_type.
The patch extends the inet_addr_type and inet_dev_addr_type with the
network namespace pointer. That allows to access the different tables
relatively to the network namespace.

The modification of the signature function is reported in all the
callers of the inet_addr_type using the pointer to the well known
init_net.

Rami Rosen cb7928a528 [IPV4]: Remove unsupported DNAT (RTCF_NAT and RTCF_NAT) in IPV4
- The DNAT (Destination NAT) is not implemented in IPV4.

- This patch remove the code which checks these flags
in net/ipv4/arp.c and net/ipv4/route.c.

The RTCF_NAT and RTCF_NAT should stay in the header (linux/in_route.h)
because they are used in DECnet.

Eric Dumazet beb659bd8c [PATCH] IPV4 : Move ip route cache flush (secret_rebuild) from softirq to workqueue
Every 600 seconds (ip_rt_secret_interval), a softirq flush of the
whole ip route cache is triggered. On loaded machines, this can starve
softirq for many seconds and can eventually crash.

This patch moves this flush to a workqueue context, using the worker
we intoduced in commit 39c90ece75 (IPV4:
Convert rt_check_expire() from softirq processing to workqueue.)

Also, immediate flushes (echo 0 >/proc/sys/net/ipv4/route/flush) are
using rt_do_flush() helper function, wich take attention to
rescheduling.

Next step will be to handle delayed flushes
("echo -1 >/proc/sys/net/ipv4/route/flush" or "ip route flush cache")

Herbert Xu 352e512c32 [NET]: Eliminate duplicate copies of dst_discard
We have a number of copies of dst_discard scattered around the place
which all do the same thing, namely free a packet on the input or
output paths.

This patch deletes all of them except dst_discard and points all the
users to it.

The only non-trivial bit is decnet where it returns an error.
However, conceptually this is identical to the blackhole functions
used in IPv4 and IPv6 which do not return errors.  So they should
either all return errors or all return zero.  For now I've stuck with
the majority and picked zero as the return value.

It doesn't really matter in practice since few if any driver would
react differently depending on a zero return value or NET_RX_DROP.

Eric Dumazet d90bf5a976 [NET]: rt_check_expire() can take a long time, add a cond_resched()
On commit 39c90ece7565f5c47110c2fa77409d7a9478bd5b:

	[IPV4]: Convert rt_check_expire() from softirq processing to workqueue.

we converted rt_check_expire() from softirq to workqueue, allowing the
function to perform all work it was supposed to do.

When the IP route cache is big, rt_check_expire() can take a long time
to run.  (default settings : 20% of the hash table is scanned at each
invocation)

Adding cond_resched() helps giving cpu to higher priority tasks if
necessary.

Using a "if (need_resched())" test before calling "cond_resched();" is
necessary to avoid spending too much time doing the resched check.
(My tests gave a time reduction from 88 ms to 25 ms per
rt_check_expire() run on my i686 test machine)

Eric Dumazet 39c90ece75 [IPV4]: Convert rt_check_expire() from softirq processing to workqueue.
On loaded/big hosts, rt_check_expire() if of litle use, because it
generally breaks out of its main loop because of a jiffies change.

It can take a long time (read : timer invocations) to actually
scan the whole hash table, freeing unused entries.

Converting it to use a workqueue instead of softirq is a nice
move because we can allow rt_check_expire() to do the scan
it is supposed to do, without hogging the CPU.

This has an impact on the average number of entries in cache,
reducing ram usage. Cache is more responsive to parameter
changes (/proc/sys/net/ipv4/route/gc_timeout and
/proc/sys/net/ipv4/route/gc_interval)

Note: Maybe the default value of gc_interval (60 seconds)
is too high, since this means we actually need 5 (300/60)
invocations to scan the whole table.

Eric W. Biederman 881d966b48 [NET]: Make the device list and device lookups per namespace.
This patch makes most of the generic device layer network
namespace safe.  This patch makes dev_base_head a
network namespace variable, and then it picks up
a few associated variables.  The functions:
dev_getbyhwaddr
dev_getfirsthwbytype
dev_get_by_flags
dev_get_by_name
__dev_get_by_name
dev_get_by_index
__dev_get_by_index
dev_ioctl
dev_ethtool
dev_load
wireless_process_ioctl

were modified to take a network namespace argument, and
deal with it.

vlan_ioctl_set and brioctl_set were modified so their
hooks will receive a network namespace argument.

So basically anthing in the core of the network stack that was
affected to by the change of dev_base was modified to handle
multiple network namespaces.  The rest of the network stack was
simply modified to explicitly use &init_net the initial network
namespace.  This can be fixed when those components of the network
stack are modified to handle multiple network namespaces.

For now the ifindex generator is left global.

Fundametally ifindex numbers are per namespace, or else
we will have corner case problems with migration when
we get that far.

At the same time there are assumptions in the network stack
that the ifindex of a network device won't change.  Making
the ifindex number global seems a good compromise until
the network stack can cope with ifindex changes when
you change namespaces, and the like.

Eric W. Biederman 457c4cbc5a [NET]: Make /proc/net per network namespace
This patch makes /proc/net per network namespace.  It modifies the global
variables proc_net and proc_net_stat to be per network namespace.
The proc_net file helpers are modified to take a network namespace argument,
and all of their callers are fixed to pass &init_net for that argument.
This ensures that all of the /proc/net files are only visible and
usable in the initial network namespace until the code behind them
has been updated to be handle multiple network namespaces.

Making /proc/net per namespace is necessary as at least some files
in /proc/net depend upon the set of network devices which is per
network namespace, and even more files in /proc/net have contents
that are relevant to a single network namespace.

Paul Mundt 20c2df83d2 mm: Remove slab destructors from kmem_cache_create().
Slab destructors were no longer supported after Christoph's
c59def9f22 change. They've been
BUGs for both slab and slub, and slob never supported them
either.

This rips out support for the dtor pointer from kmem_cache_create()
completely and fixes up every single callsite in the kernel (there were
about 224, not including the slab allocator definitions themselves,
or the documentation references).

David S. Miller 14e50e57ae [XFRM]: Allow packet drops during larval state resolution.
The current IPSEC rule resolution behavior we have does not work for a
lot of people, even though technically it's an improvement from the
-EAGAIN buisness we had before.

Right now we'll block until the key manager resolves the route.  That
works for simple cases, but many folks would rather packets get
silently dropped until the key manager resolves the IPSEC rules.

We can't tell these folks to "set the socket non-blocking" because
they don't have control over the non-block setting of things like the
sockets used to resolve DNS deep inside of the resolver libraries in
libc.

With that in mind I coded up the patch below with some help from
Herbert Xu which provides packet-drop behavior during larval state
resolution, controllable via sysctl and off by default.

This lays the framework to either:

1) Make this default at some point or...

2) Move this logic into xfrm{4,6}_policy.c and implement the
   ARP-like resolution queue we've all been dreaming of.
   The idea would be to queue packets to the policy, then
   once the larval state is resolved by the key manager we
   re-resolve the route and push the packets out.  The
   packets would timeout if the rule didn't get resolved
   in a certain amount of time.

Tim Schmielau cd354f1ae7 [PATCH] remove many unneeded #includes of sched.h
After Al Viro (finally) succeeded in removing the sched.h #include in module.h
recently, it makes sense again to remove other superfluous sched.h includes.
There are quite a lot of files which include it but don't actually need
anything defined in there.  Presumably these includes were once needed for
macros that used to live in sched.h, but moved to other header files in the
course of cleaning it up.

To ease the pain, this time I did not fiddle with any header files and only
removed #includes from .c-files, which tend to cause less trouble.

Compile tested against 2.6.20-rc2 and 2.6.20-rc2-mm2 (with offsets) on alpha,
arm, i386, ia64, mips, powerpc, and x86_64 with allnoconfig, defconfig,
allmodconfig, and allyesconfig as well as a few randconfigs on x86_64 and all
configs in arch/arm/configs on arm.  I also checked that no new warnings were
introduced by the patch (actually, some warnings are removed that were emitted
by unnecessarily included header files).
