3eec0047d9 [TCP]: Fix mark_head_lost to ignore R-bit when trying to mark L
This condition (plain R) can arise at least in recovery that
is triggered after tcp_undo_loss. There isn't any reason why
they should not be marked as lost, not marking makes in_flight

16e906812f [TCP]: Add bytes_acked (ABC) clearing to FRTO too
I was reading tcp_enter_loss while looking for Cedric's bug and
noticed bytes_acked adjustment is missing from FRTO side.

Since bytes_acked will only be used in tcp_cong_avoid, I think
it's safe to assume RTO would be spurious. During FRTO cwnd
will be not controlled by tcp_cong_avoid and if FRTO calls for
conventional recovery, cwnd is adjusted and the result of wrong
assumption is cleared from bytes_acked. If RTO was in fact
spurious, we did normal ABC already and can continue without
any additional adjustments.

4953f0fcc0 [IPv6]: Update setsockopt(IPV6_MULTICAST_IF) to support RFC 3493, try2
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 
already behaves this way.

17311393f9 [NETFILTER]: nf_conntrack_tcp: fix connection reopening
With your description I could reproduce the bug and actually you were
completely right: the code above is incorrect. Somehow I was able to
misread RFC1122 and mixed the roles :-(:

   When a connection is >>closed actively<<, it MUST linger in
   TIME-WAIT state for a time 2xMSL (Maximum Segment Lifetime).
   However, it MAY >>accept<< a new SYN from the remote TCP to
   reopen the connection directly from TIME-WAIT state, if it:
   [...]

The fix is as follows: if the receiver initiated an active close, then the
sender may reopen the connection - otherwise try to figure out if we hold
a dead connection.

31910575a9 [IPv6]: Export userland ND options through netlink (RDNSS support)
As discussed before, this patch provides userland with a way to access
relevant options in Router Advertisements, after they are processed
and validated by the kernel. Extra options are processed in a generic
way; this patch only exports RDNSS options described in RFC5006, but
support to control which options are exported could be easily added.

A new rtnetlink message type is defined, to transport Neighbor
Discovery options, along with optional context information. At the
moment only the address of the router sending an RDNSS option is
included, but additional attributes may be later defined, if needed by
new use cases.

cd40b7d398 [NET]: make netlink user -> kernel interface synchronious
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.

1536cc0d55 [NET]: rtnl_unlock cleanups
There is no need to process outstanding netlink user->kernel packets
during rtnl_unlock now. There is no rtnl_trylock in the rtnetlink_rcv
anymore.

Normal code path is the following:
netlink_sendmsg
   netlink_unicast
       netlink_sendskb
           skb_queue_tail
           netlink_data_ready
               rtnetlink_rcv
                   mutex_lock(&rtnl_mutex);
                   netlink_run_queue(sk, qlen, &rtnetlink_rcv_msg);
                   mutex_unlock(&rtnl_mutex);

So, it is possible, that packets can be present in the rtnl->sk_receive_queue
during rtnl_unlock, but there is no need to process them at that moment as
rtnetlink_rcv for that packet is pending.

7607bd8ff0 [CRYPTO] blkcipher: Added blkcipher_walk_virt_block
This patch adds the helper blkcipher_walk_virt_block which is similar to
blkcipher_walk_virt but uses a supplied block size instead of the block
size of the block cipher.  This is useful for CTR where the block size is
1 but we still want to walk by the block size of the underlying cipher.

2614de1b9a [CRYPTO] blkcipher: Increase kmalloc amount to aligned block size
Now that the block size is no longer a multiple of the alignment, we need to
increase the kmalloc amount in blkcipher_next_slow to use the aligned block
size.

d8058480b3 [CRYPTO] api: Explain the comparison on larval cra_name
This patch adds a comment to explain why we compare the cra_driver_name of
the algorithm being registered against the cra_name of a larval as opposed
to the cra_driver_name of the larval.

In fact larvals have only one name, cra_name which is the name that was
requested by the user.  The test here is simply trying to find out whether
the algorithm being registered can or can not satisfy the larval.

70613783fc [CRYPTO] blkcipher: Remove alignment restriction on block size
Previously we assumed for convenience that the block size is a multiple of
the algorithm's required alignment.  With the pending addition of CTR this
will no longer be the case as the block size will be 1 due to it being a
stream cipher.  However, the alignment requirement will be that of the
underlying implementation which will most likely be greater than 1.

e4c5c6c9b0 [CRYPTO] authenc: Kill spaces in algorithm names
We do not allow spaces in algorithm names or parameters.  Thanks to Joy Latten

720a650f8a [CRYPTO] cryptomgr: Fix parsing of recursive algorithms
As Joy Latten points out, inner algorithm parameters will miss the closing
bracket which will also cause the outer algorithm to terminate prematurely.

This patch fixes that also kills the WARN_ON if the number of parameters
exceed the maximum as that is a user error.

f19f5111c9 [CRYPTO] xts: XTS blockcipher mode implementation without partial blocks
XTS currently considered to be the successor of the LRW mode by the IEEE1619
workgroup. LRW was discarded, because it was not secure if the encyption key
itself is encrypted with LRW.

XTS does not have this problem. The implementation is pretty straightforward,
a new function was added to gf128mul to handle GF(128) elements in ble format.
Four testvectors from the specification
	http://grouper.ieee.org/groups/1619/email/pdf00086.pdf
were added, and they verify on my system.
