One of the problem with sock memory accounting is it uses
a pair of sock_hold()/sock_put() for each transmitted packet.
This slows down bidirectional flows because the receive path
also needs to take a refcount on socket and might use a different
cpu than transmit path or transmit completion path. So these
two atomic operations also trigger cache line bounces.
We can see this in tx or tx/rx workloads (media gateways for example),
where sock_wfree() can be in top five functions in profiles.
We use this sock_hold()/sock_put() so that sock freeing
is delayed until all tx packets are completed.
As we also update sk_wmem_alloc, we could offset sk_wmem_alloc
by one unit at init time, until sk_free() is called.
Once sk_free() is called, we atomic_dec_and_test(sk_wmem_alloc)
to decrement initial offset and atomicaly check if any packets
are in flight.
skb_set_owner_w() doesnt call sock_hold() anymore
sock_wfree() doesnt call sock_put() anymore, but check if sk_wmem_alloc
reached 0 to perform the final freeing.
Drawback is that a skb->truesize error could lead to unfreeable sockets, or
even worse, prematurely calling __sk_free() on a live socket.
Nice speedups on SMP. tbench for example, going from 2691 MB/s to 2711 MB/s
on my 8 cpu dev machine, even if tbench was not really hitting sk_refcnt
contention point. 5 % speedup on a UDP transmit workload (depends
on number of flows), lowering TX completion cpu usage.

Current conntrack code kills the ICMP conntrack entry as soon as
the first reply is received. This is incorrect, as we then see only
the first ICMP echo reply out of several possible duplicates as
ESTABLISHED, while the rest will be INVALID. Also this unnecessarily
increases the conntrackd traffic on H-A firewalls.
Make all the ICMP conntrack entries (including the replied ones)
last for the default of nf_conntrack_icmp{,v6}_timeout seconds.

struct dst_entry *skb_dst(const struct sk_buff *skb)
void skb_dst_set(struct sk_buff *skb, struct dst_entry *dst)

This patch simplifies the conntrack event caching system by removing
several events:
* IPCT_[*]_VOLATILE, IPCT_HELPINFO and IPCT_NATINFO has been deleted
since the have no clients.
* IPCT_COUNTER_FILLING which is a leftover of the 32-bits counter
days.
* IPCT_REFRESH which is not of any use since we always include the
timeout in the messages.
After this patch, the existing events are:
* IPCT_NEW, IPCT_RELATED and IPCT_DESTROY, that are used to identify
addition and deletion of entries.
* IPCT_STATUS, that notes that the status bits have changes,
eg. IPS_SEEN_REPLY and IPS_ASSURED.
* IPCT_PROTOINFO, that reports that internal protocol information has
changed, eg. the TCP, DCCP and SCTP protocol state.
* IPCT_HELPER, that a helper has been assigned or unassigned to this
entry.
* IPCT_MARK and IPCT_SECMARK, that reports that the mark has changed, this
covers the case when a mark is set to zero.
* IPCT_NATSEQADJ, to report that there's updates in the NAT sequence
adjustment.

Add 'autoconf' and 'disable_ipv6' parameters to the IPv6 module.
The first controls if IPv6 addresses are autoconfigured from
prefixes received in Router Advertisements. The IPv6 loopback
(::1) and link-local addresses are still configured.
The second controls if IPv6 addresses are desired at all. No
IPv6 addresses will be added to any interfaces.

The use of unspecified protocol in IPv6 initial route prevents quagga to
install IPv6 default route:
# show ipv6 route
S ::/0 [1/0] via fe80::1, eth1_0
K>* ::/0 is directly connected, lo, rej
C>* ::1/128 is directly connected, lo
C>* fe80::/64 is directly connected, eth1_0
# ip -6 route
fe80::/64 dev eth1_0 proto kernel metric 256 mtu 1500 advmss 1440
hoplimit -1
ff00::/8 dev eth1_0 metric 256 mtu 1500 advmss 1440 hoplimit -1
unreachable default dev lo proto none metric -1 error -101 hoplimit 255
The attached patch ensures RTPROT_KERNEL to the default initial route
and fixes the problem for quagga.
This is similar to "ipv6: protocol for address routes"
f410a1fba7afa79d2992620e874a343fdba28332.

PRL entry and defaults to 15 minutes.
The RS is sent from every link local adress that's assigned to the
tunnel interface. It's directed to the (guessed) linklocal address
of the router and is sent through the tunnel.
Better: send to ff02::2 encapsuled in unicast directed to router-v4.

Just returning -ERESTARTSYS without a signal pending is not
good that will just leak it to userspace. We need return
-ERESTARTNOINTR so we always restart and set signal pending
so that we fall of the fast path of syscall return and setup
the system call restart.
So use restart_syscall() which does all of this for us.

The x_tables are organized with a table structure and a per-cpu copies
of the counters and rules. On older kernels there was a reader/writer
lock per table which was a performance bottleneck. In 2.6.30-rc, this
was converted to use RCU and the counters/rules which solved the performance
problems for do_table but made replacing rules much slower because of
the necessary RCU grace period.
This version uses a per-cpu set of spinlocks and counters to allow to
table processing to proceed without the cache thrashing of a global
reader lock and keeps the same performance for table updates.

If an ipv4 packet (not locally generated with IP_DF flag not set) bigger
than mtu size is supposed to go via a xfrm ipv6 tunnel, the packetsize
check in xfrm4_tunnel_check_size() is omited and ipv6 drops the packet
without sending a notice to the original sender of the ipv4 packet.
Another issue is that ipv4 connection tracking does reassembling of
incomming fragmented packets. If such a reassembled packet is supposed to
go via a xfrm ipv6 tunnel it will be droped, even if the original sender
did proper fragmentation.
According to RFC 2473 (section 7) tunnel ipv6 packets resulting from the
encapsulation of an original packet are considered as locally generated
packets. If such a packet passed the checks in xfrm{4,6}_tunnel_check_size()
fragmentation is allowed according to RFC 2473 (section 7.1/7.2).
This patch sets skb->local_df in xfrm6_prepare_output() to achieve
fragmentation in this case.
