No, they were there before too, but you have to go up one level to see 
them.

It's better in 2.6.15-rc1-git5, but the menu structure is still a little 
messed up, the patch below properly indents all menu entries.

381998241f [LLC]: Fix compiler warnings introduced by TX window scaling changes.
Noticed by Olaf Hering.

The comparisons want a u8 here (the data type on the left-hand branch
is a u8 structure member, and the constant on the right-hand branch is
"~((u8) 128)"), but C turns it into an integer so we get:

net/llc/llc_c_ac.c: In function `llc_conn_ac_inc_npta_value':
net/llc/llc_c_ac.c:998: warning: comparison is always true due to limited range of data type
net/llc/llc_c_ac.c:999: warning: large integer implicitly truncated to unsigned type

Fix this up by explicitly recasting the right-hand branch constant
into a "u8" once more.

2fce76afdb [NETFILTER] ip_conntrack: fix ftp/irc/tftp helpers on ports >= 32768
Since we've converted the ftp/irc/tftp helpers to use the new
module_parm_array() some time ago, we ware accidentially using signed data
types - thus preventing those modules from being used on ports >= 32768.

This patch fixes it by using 'ushort' module parameters.

1887b93529 [PATCH] knfsd: make sure nfsd doesn't hog a cpu forever
Being kernel-threads, nfsd servers don't get pre-empted (depending on
CONFIG).  If there is a steady stream of NFS requests that can be served
from cache, an nfsd thread may hold on to a cpu indefinitely, which isn't
very friendly.

So it is good to have a cond_resched in there (just before looking for a
new request to serve), to make sure we play nice.

326f36e9e7 [TCP]: receive buffer growth limiting with mixed MTU
This is a patch for discussion addressing some receive buffer growing issues.
This is partially related to the thread "Possible BUG in IPv4 TCP window
handling..." last week.

Specifically it addresses the problem of an interaction between rcvbuf
moderation (receiver autotuning) and rcv_ssthresh.  The problem occurs when
sending small packets to a receiver with a larger MTU.  (A very common case I
have is a host with a 1500 byte MTU sending to a host with a 9k MTU.)  In
such a case, the rcv_ssthresh code is targeting a window size corresponding
to filling up the current rcvbuf, not taking into account that the new rcvbuf
moderation may increase the rcvbuf size.

One hunk makes rcv_ssthresh use tcp_rmem[2] as the size target rather than
rcvbuf.  The other changes the behavior when it overflows its memory bounds
with in-order data so that it tries to grow rcvbuf (the same as with
out-of-order data).

These changes should help my problem of mixed MTUs, and should also help the
case from last week's thread I think.  (In both cases though you still need
tcp_rmem[2] to be set much larger than the TCP window.)  One question is if
this is too aggressive at trying to increase rcvbuf if it's under memory
stress.

f4805eded7 [TCP]: fix congestion window update when using TSO deferal
TCP peformance with TSO over networks with delay is awful.
On a 100Mbit link with 150ms delay, we get 4Mbits/sec with TSO and
50Mbits/sec without TSO.

The problem is with TSO, we intentionally do not keep the maximum
number of packets in flight to fill the window, we hold out to until 
we can send a MSS chunk. But, we also don't update the congestion window 
unless we have filled, as per RFC2861.

This patch replaces the check for the congestion window being full
with something smarter that accounts for TSO.

fb286bb299 [NET]: Detect hardware rx checksum faults correctly
Here is the patch that introduces the generic skb_checksum_complete
which also checks for hardware RX checksum faults.  If that happens,
it'll call netdev_rx_csum_fault which currently prints out a stack
trace with the device name.  In future it can turn off RX checksum.

I've converted every spot under net/ that does RX checksum checks to
use skb_checksum_complete or __skb_checksum_complete with the
exceptions of:

* Those places where checksums are done bit by bit.  These will call
netdev_rx_csum_fault directly.

* The following have not been completely checked/converted:

ipmr
ip_vs
netfilter
dccp

The generic netlink family builds on top of netlink and provides
simplifies access for the less demanding netlink users. It solves
the problem of protocol numbers running out by introducing a so
called controller taking care of id management and name resolving.

Generic netlink modules register themself after filling out their
id card (struct genl_family), after successful registration the
modules are able to register callbacks to command numbers by
filling out a struct genl_ops and calling genl_register_op(). The
registered callbacks are invoked with attributes parsed making
life of simple modules a lot easier.

Although generic netlink modules can request static identifiers,
it is recommended to use GENL_ID_GENERATE and to let the controller
assign a unique identifier to the module. Userspace applications
will then ask the controller and lookup the idenfier by the module
name.

Due to the current multicast implementation of netlink, the number
of generic netlink modules is restricted to 1024 to avoid wasting
memory for the per socket multiacst subscription bitmask.
