Do liberal tracking (only RSTs need to be in-window) for connections picked up without seeing a SYN to deal with window scaling.

2007-02-08[NETFILTER]: Add SANE connection tracking helperMichal Schmidt
This is nf_conntrack_sane, a netfilter connection tracking helper module for the SANE protocol used by the 'saned' daemon to make scanners available via network. The SANE protocol uses separate control & data connections, similar to passive FTP. The helper module is needed to recognize the data connection as RELATED to the control one.

2007-02-08[TCP]: Seperate DSACK from SACK fast pathBaruch Even
Move DSACK code outside the SACK fast-path checking code. If the DSACK determined that the information was too old we stayed with a partial cache copied. Most likely this matters very little since the next packet will not be DSACK and we will find it in the cache. but it's still not good form and there is little reason to couple the two checks. Since the SACK receive cache doesn't need the data to be in host order we also remove the ntohl in the checking loop. Signed-off-by: Baruch Even <baruch@ev-en.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2007-02-08[PACKET]: Add optional checksum computation for recvmsgHerbert Xu
This patch is needed to make ISC's DHCP server (and probably other DHCP servers/clients using AF_PACKET) to be able to serve another client on the same Xen host. The problem is that packets between different domains on the same Xen host only have partial checksums. Unfortunately this piece of information is not passed along in AF_PACKET unless you're using the mmap interface. Since dhcpd doesn't support packet-mmap, UDP packets from the same host come out with apparently bogus checksums. This patch adds a mechanism for AF_PACKET recvmsg(2) to return the status along with the packet. It does so by adding a new cmsg that contains this information along with some other relevant data such as the original packet length. I didn't include the time stamp information since there is already a cmsg for that. This patch also changes the mmap code to set the CSUMNOTREADY flag on all packets instead of just outoing packets on cooked sockets.

2007-02-07msi: Make MSI useable more architecturesEric W. Biederman
The arch hooks arch_setup_msi_irq and arch_teardown_msi_irq are now responsible for allocating and freeing the linux irq in addition to setting up the the linux irq to work with the interrupt. arch_setup_msi_irq now takes a pci_device and a msi_desc and returns an irq. With this change in place this code should be useable by all platforms except those that won't let the OS touch the hardware like ppc RTAS. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

2007-02-07msi: Kill the msi_desc array.Eric W. Biederman
We need to be able to get from an irq number to a struct msi_desc. The msi_desc array in msi.c had several short comings the big one was that it could not be used outside of msi.c. Using irq_data in struct irq_desc almost worked except on some architectures irq_data needs to be used for something else. So this patch adds a msi_desc pointer to irq_desc, adds the appropriate wrappers and changes all of the msi code to use them. The dynamic_irq_init/cleanup code was tweaked to ensure the new field is left in a well defined state. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

2007-02-07msi: Kill msi_lookup_irqEric W. Biederman
The function msi_lookup_irq was horrible. As a side effect of running it changed dev->irq, and then the callers would need to change it back. In addition it does a global scan through all of the irqs, which seems to be the sole justification of the msi_lock. To remove the neede for msi_lookup_irq I added first_msi_irq to struct pci_dev. Then depending on the context I replaced msi_lookup_irq with dev->first_msi_irq, dev->msi_enabled, or dev->msix_enabled. msi_enabled and msix_enabled were already present in pci_dev for other reasons.

2007-02-07sysfs: Shadow directory supportEric W. Biederman
The problem. When implementing a network namespace I need to be able to have multiple network devices with the same name. Currently this is a problem for /sys/class/net/*. What I want is a separate /sys/class/net directory in sysfs for each network namespace, and I want to name each of them /sys/class/net. I looked and the VFS actually allows that. All that is needed is for /sys/class/net to implement a follow link method to redirect lookups to the real directory you want. Implementing a follow link method that is sensitive to the current network namespace turns out to be 3 lines of code so it looks like a clean approach. Modifying sysfs so it doesn't get in my was is a bit trickier. I am calling the concept of multiple directories all at the same path in the filesystem shadow directories. With the directory entry really at that location the shadow master. The following patch modifies sysfs so it can handle a directory structure slightly different from the kobject tree so I can implement the shadow directories for handling /sys/class/net/.
