Most callers of the LOCAL_OUT chain will set the IP packet length and
header checksum before doing so. They also share the same output
function dst_output.
This patch creates a new function called ip_local_out which does all
of that and converts the appropriate users over to it.
Apart from removing duplicate code, it will also help in merging the
IPsec output path once the same thing is done for IPv6.

Many-many code in the kernel initialized the timer->function
and timer->data together with calling init_timer(timer). There
is already a helper for this. Use it for networking code.
The patch is HUGE, but makes the code 130 lines shorter
(98 insertions(+), 228 deletions(-)).

This concerns the ipv4 and ipv6 code mostly, but also the netlink
and unix sockets.
The netlink code is an example of how to use the __seq_open_private()
call - it saves the net namespace on this private.

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.

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.

Cleanup of dev_base list use, with the aim to simplify making device
list per-namespace. In almost every occasion, use of dev_base variable
and dev->next pointer could be easily replaced by for_each_netdev
loop. A few most complicated places were converted to using
first_netdev()/next_netdev().

So that it is also an offset from skb->head, reduces its size from 8 to 4 bytes
on 64bit architectures, allowing us to combine the 4 bytes hole left by the
layer headers conversion, reducing struct sk_buff size to 256 bytes, i.e. 4
64byte cachelines, and since the sk_buff slab cache is SLAB_HWCACHE_ALIGN...
:-)
Many calculations that previously required that skb->{transport,network,
mac}_header be first converted to a pointer now can be done directly, being
meaningful as offsets or pointers.

In active-backup mode, the current bonding code duplicates IGMP
traffic to all slaves, so that switches are up to date in case of a
failover from an active to a backup interface. If bonding then fails
back to the original active interface, it is likely that the "active
slave" switch's IGMP forwarding for the port will be out of date until
some event occurs to refresh the switch (e.g., a membership query).
This patch alters the behavior of bonding to no longer flood
IGMP to all ports, and to issue IGMP JOINs to the newly active port at
the time of a failover. This insures that switches are kept up to date
for all cases.
"GOELLESCH Niels" <niels.goellesch@eurocontrol.int> originally
reported this problem, and included a patch. His original patch was
modified by Jay Vosburgh to additionally remove the existing IGMP flood
behavior, use RCU, streamline code paths, fix trailing white space, and
adjust for style.

Many struct file_operations in the kernel can be "const". Marking them const
moves these to the .rodata section, which avoids false sharing with potential

1) fix "mld_marksources()" to
a) send nothing when all queried sources are excluded
b) send full exclude report when source queried sources are
not excluded
c) don't schedule a timer when there's nothing to report
2) fix "add_grec()" to send empty-source records when it should
The original check doesn't account for a non-empty source
list with all sources inactive; the new code keeps that
short-circuit case, and also generates the group header
with an empty list if needed.
3) fix mca_crcount decrement to be after add_grec(), which needs
its original value
4) add/remove delete records and prevent current advertisements
when an exclude-mode filter moves from "active" to "inactive"
or vice versa based on new filter additions.
Items 1-3 are just IPv4 versions of the IPv6 bugs found
by Yan Zheng and fixed earlier. Item #4 is a related bug that
affects exclude-mode change records only (but not queries) and
also occurs in IPv6 (IPv6 version coming soon).

From: David Stevens <dlstevens@us.ibm.com>
As explained at:
http://www.cs.ucsb.edu/~krishna/igmp_dos/
With IGMP version 1 and 2 it is possible to inject a unicast
report to a client which will make it ignore multicast
reports sent later by the router.
The fix is to only accept the report if is was sent to a
multicast or unicast address.

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

And filter mode is exclude.
Further explanation by David Stevens:
Multicast source filters aren't widely used yet, and that's really the only
feature that's affected if an application actually exercises this bug, as far
as I can tell. An ordinary filter-less multicast join should still work, and
only forwarded multicast traffic making use of filters and doing empty-source
filters with the MSFILTER ioctl would be at risk of not getting multicast
traffic forwarded to them because the reports generated would not be based on
the correct counts.

The following patch renames __in_dev_get() to __in_dev_get_rtnl() and
introduces __in_dev_get_rcu() to cover the second case.
1) RCU with refcnt should use in_dev_get().
2) RCU without refcnt should use __in_dev_get_rcu().
3) All others must hold RTNL and use __in_dev_get_rtnl().
There is one exception in net/ipv4/route.c which is in fact a pre-existing
race condition. I've marked it as such so that we remember to fix it.
