This patch fix the fragmentation on sending side according to rfc4944.
Also add improvement to use the full payload of a PDU which calculate
the nearest divided to 8 payload length for the fragmentation datagram
size attribute.
The main issue is that the datagram size of fragmentation header use the
ipv6 payload length, but rfc4944 says it's the ipv6 payload length inclusive
network header size (and transport header size if compressed).

Commit 57f89bfa21 ("network: Allow af_packet to transmit +4 bytes
for VLAN packets.") added the possibility for non-mmaped frames to
send extra 4 byte for VLAN header so the MTU increases from 1500 to
1504 byte, for example.
Commit cbd89acb9e ("af_packet: fix for sending VLAN frames via
packet_mmap") attempted to fix that for the mmap part but was
reverted as it caused regressions while using eth_type_trans()
on output path.
Lets just act analogous to 57f89bfa21 and add a similar logic
to TX_RING. We presume size_max as overcharged with +4 bytes and
later on after skb has been built by tpacket_fill_skb() check
for ETH_P_8021Q header on packets larger than normal MTU. Can
be easily reproduced with a slightly modified trafgen in mmap(2)
mode, test cases:
{ fill(0xff, 12) const16(0x8100) fill(0xff, <1504|1505>) }
{ fill(0xff, 12) const16(0x0806) fill(0xff, <1500|1501>) }
Note that we need to do the test right after tpacket_fill_skb()
as sockets can have PACKET_LOSS set where we would not fail but
instead just continue to traverse the ring.

This is the rework of the IPsec virtual tunnel interface
for ipv4 to support inter address family tunneling and
namespace crossing. The only change to the last RFC version
is a compile fix for an odd configuration where CONFIG_XFRM
is set but CONFIG_INET is not set.
1) Add and use a IPsec protocol multiplexer.
2) Add xfrm_tunnel_skb_cb to the skb common buffer
to store a receive callback there.
3) Make vti work with i_key set by not including the i_key
when comupting the hash for the tunnel lookup in case of
vti tunnels.
4) Update ip_vti to use it's own receive hook.
5) Remove xfrm_tunnel_notifier, this is replaced by the IPsec
protocol multiplexer.
6) We need to be protocol family indepenent, so use the on xfrm_lookup
returned dst_entry instead of the ipv4 rtable in vti_tunnel_xmit().
7) Add support for inter address family tunneling.
8) Check if the tunnel endpoints of the xfrm state and the vti interface
are matching and return an error otherwise.

Upcoming congestion controls for TCP require usec resolution for RTT
estimations. Millisecond resolution is simply not enough these days.
FQ/pacing in DC environments also require this change for finer control

Instead of :

t0 = ktime_get();

t1 = ktime_get();
delta_us = ktime_us_delta(t1, t0);
use :
struct skb_mstamp t0, t1;
skb_mstamp_get(&t0);
// stuff
skb_mstamp_get(&t1);
delta_us = skb_mstamp_us_delta(&t1, &t0);
Note : local_clock() might have a (bounded) drift between cpus.
Do not use this infra in place of ktime_get() without understanding the

IP_PMTUDISC_INTERFACE has a design error: because it does not allow the
generation of fragments if the interface mtu is exceeded, it is very
hard to make use of this option in already deployed name server software
for which I introduced this option.
This patch adds yet another new IP_MTU_DISCOVER option to not honor any
path mtu information and not accepting new icmp notifications destined for
the socket this option is enabled on. But we allow outgoing fragmentation
in case the packet size exceeds the outgoing interface mtu.
As such this new option can be used as a drop-in replacement for
IP_PMTUDISC_DONT, which is currently in use by most name server software
making the adoption of this option very smooth and easy.
The original advantage of IP_PMTUDISC_INTERFACE is still maintained:
ignoring incoming path MTU updates and not honoring discovered path MTUs
in the output path.

ip_skb_dst_mtu mostly falls back to ip_dst_mtu_maybe_forward if no socket
is attached to the skb (in case of forwarding) or determines the mtu like
we do in ip_finish_output, which actually checks if we should branch to
ip_fragment. Thus use the same function to determine the mtu here, too.
This is important for the introduction of IP_PMTUDISC_OMIT, where we
want the packets getting cut in pieces of the size of the outgoing
interface mtu. IPv6 already does this correctly.

iproute2 arpd seems to expect this as there's code and comments
to handle netlink probes with NUD_PROBE set. It is used to flush
the arpd cached mappings.
opennhrp instead turns off unicast probes (so it can handle all
neighbour discovery). Without this change it will not see NUD_PROBE
probes and cannot reconfirm the mapping. Thus currently neigh entry
will just fail and can cause few packets dropped until broadcast
discovery is restarted.

bnx2x: minimize RAM usage in kdump
kdump kernels usually have only a small amount of memory reserved.
bnx2x can be memory-hungry. Let's minimize its memory usage when
running in kdump.
I detect kdump by looking at the "reset_devices" flag. A couple of
storage drivers (cciss, hpsa) use it for the same purpose. I am not sure
this is the best way to solve the problem, but it works.
Should it be made more generic by, say, looking at the total amount
of lowmem instead? Not using TPA by default when lowmem is small and/or
defaulting to fewer queues would help 32bit systems where a driver for
a multi-function multi-queue NIC can consume a significant amount
of available memory. Or do we want no such heuristics?
Is this something to consider doing for other network drivers too?

When running in a kdump kernel, disable TPA. This saves memory, which
tends to be scarce in kdump.
TPA, being a receive acceleration, is unlikely to be useful for kdump,
whose purpose is to send the memory image out.
This saves additional 5 MB in the kdump environment.
