The recent change to netlink dump "done" callback handling broke IPv6
which played dirty tricks with the "done" callback. This causes an
infinite loop during a dump.
The following patch fixes it.
This bug was reported by Jeff Garzik.

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
This patch is based on patches and suggestions from Stephen Hemminger

The existing connection tracking subsystem in netfilter can only
handle ipv4. There were basically two choices present to add
connection tracking support for ipv6. We could either duplicate all
of the ipv4 connection tracking code into an ipv6 counterpart, or (the
choice taken by these patches) we could design a generic layer that
could handle both ipv4 and ipv6 and thus requiring only one sub-protocol
(TCP, UDP, etc.) connection tracking helper module to be written.
In fact nf_conntrack is capable of working with any layer 3
protocol.
The existing ipv4 specific conntrack code could also not deal
with the pecularities of doing connection tracking on ipv6,
which is also cured here. For example, these issues include:
1) ICMPv6 handling, which is used for neighbour discovery in
ipv6 thus some messages such as these should not participate
in connection tracking since effectively they are like ARP
messages
2) fragmentation must be handled differently in ipv6, because
the simplistic "defrag, connection track and NAT, refrag"
(which the existing ipv4 connection tracking does) approach simply
isn't feasible in ipv6
3) ipv6 extension header parsing must occur at the correct spots
before and after connection tracking decisions, and there were
no provisions for this in the existing connection tracking
design
4) ipv6 has no need for stateful NAT
The ipv4 specific conntrack layer is kept around, until all of
the ipv4 specific conntrack helpers are ported over to nf_conntrack
and it is feature complete. Once that occurs, the old conntrack
stuff will get placed into the feature-removal-schedule and we will
fully kill it off 6 months later.

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.

5.1.3. Maximum Response Code
The Maximum Response Code field specifies the maximum time allowed
before sending a responding Report. The actual time allowed, called
the Maximum Response Delay, is represented in units of milliseconds,
and is derived from the Maximum Response Code as follows:
If Maximum Response Code < 32768,
Maximum Response Delay = Maximum Response Code
If Maximum Response Code >=32768, Maximum Response Code represents a
floating-point value as follows:
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 A B C D E F
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
|1| exp | mant |
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
Maximum Response Delay = (mant | 0x1000) << (exp+3)
5.1.9. QQIC (Querier's Query Interval Code)
The Querier's Query Interval Code field specifies the [Query
Interval] used by the Querier. The actual interval, called the
Querier's Query Interval (QQI), is represented in units of seconds,
and is derived from the Querier's Query Interval Code as follows:
If QQIC < 128, QQI = QQIC
If QQIC >= 128, QQIC represents a floating-point value as follows:
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
|1| exp | mant |
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
QQI = (mant | 0x10) << (exp + 3)

#define MLDV2_QQIC(value) MLDV2_EXP(0x80, 4, 3, value)
#define MLDV2_MRC(value) MLDV2_EXP(0x8000, 12, 3, value)
Above macro are defined in mcast.c. but 1 << 4 == 0x10 and 1 << 12 == 0x1000.

Attached is kernel patch for UDP Fragmentation Offload (UFO) feature.
1. This patch incorporate the review comments by Jeff Garzik.
2. Renamed USO as UFO (UDP Fragmentation Offload)
3. udp sendfile support with UFO
This patches uses scatter-gather feature of skb to generate large UDP
datagram. Below is a "how-to" on changes required in network device
driver to use the UFO interface.
UDP Fragmentation Offload (UFO) Interface:
-------------------------------------------
UFO is a feature wherein the Linux kernel network stack will offload the
IP fragmentation functionality of large UDP datagram to hardware. This
will reduce the overhead of stack in fragmenting the large UDP datagram to
MTU sized packets
1) Drivers indicate their capability of UFO using
dev->features |= NETIF_F_UFO | NETIF_F_HW_CSUM | NETIF_F_SG
NETIF_F_HW_CSUM is required for UFO over ipv6.
2) UFO packet will be submitted for transmission using driver xmit routine.
UFO packet will have a non-zero value for
"skb_shinfo(skb)->ufo_size"
skb_shinfo(skb)->ufo_size will indicate the length of data part in each IP
fragment going out of the adapter after IP fragmentation by hardware.
skb->data will contain MAC/IP/UDP header and skb_shinfo(skb)->frags[]
contains the data payload. The skb->ip_summed will be set to CHECKSUM_HW
indicating that hardware has to do checksum calculation. Hardware should
compute the UDP checksum of complete datagram and also ip header checksum of
each fragmented IP packet.
For IPV6 the UFO provides the fragment identification-id in
skb_shinfo(skb)->ip6_frag_id. The adapter should use this ID for generating
IPv6 fragments.

In 'net' change the explicit use of for-loops and NR_CPUS into the
general for_each_cpu() or for_each_online_cpu() constructs, as
appropriate. This widens the scope of potential future optimizations
of the general constructs, as well as takes advantage of the existing
optimizations of first_cpu() and next_cpu(), which is advantageous
when the true CPU count is much smaller than NR_CPUS.

Original patch by Harald Welte, with feedback from Herbert Xu
and testing by Sébastien Bernard.
EBTABLES, ARP tables, and IP/IP6 tables all assume that cpus
are numbered linearly. That is not necessarily true.
This patch fixes that up by calculating the largest possible
cpu number, and allocating enough per-cpu structure space given
that.

This patch fixes the following bugs in ESP:
* Fix transport mode MTU overestimate. This means that the inner MTU
is smaller than it needs be. Worse yet, given an input MTU which
is a multiple of 4 it will always produce an estimate which is not
a multiple of 4.
For example, given a standard ESP/3DES/MD5 transform and an MTU of
1500, the resulting MTU for transport mode is 1462 when it should
be 1464.
The reason for this is because IP header lengths are always a multiple
of 4 for IPv4 and 8 for IPv6.
* Ensure that the block size is at least 4. This is required by RFC2406
and corresponds to what the esp_output function does. At the moment
this only affects crypto_null as its block size is 1.

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.
This patch is based on suggestions and prior work by Suzanne Wood and
Paul McKenney.

Arnaldo and I agreed it could be applied now, because I have other
pending patches depending on this one (Thank you Arnaldo)
(The other important patch moves skc_refcnt in a separate cache line,
so that the SMP/NUMA performance doesnt suffer from cache line ping pongs)
1) First some performance data :
--------------------------------
tcp_v4_rcv() wastes a *lot* of time in __inet_lookup_established()
The most time critical code is :
sk_for_each(sk, node, &head->chain) {
if (INET_MATCH(sk, acookie, saddr, daddr, ports, dif))
goto hit; /* You sunk my battleship! */
}
The sk_for_each() does use prefetch() hints but only the begining of
"struct sock" is prefetched.
As INET_MATCH first comparison uses inet_sk(__sk)->daddr, wich is far
away from the begining of "struct sock", it has to bring into CPU
cache cold cache line. Each iteration has to use at least 2 cache
lines.
This can be problematic if some chains are very long.
2) The goal
-----------
The idea I had is to change things so that INET_MATCH() may return
FALSE in 99% of cases only using the data already in the CPU cache,
using one cache line per iteration.
3) Description of the patch
---------------------------
Adds a new 'unsigned int skc_hash' field in 'struct sock_common',
filling a 32 bits hole on 64 bits platform.
struct sock_common {
unsigned short skc_family;
volatile unsigned char skc_state;
unsigned char skc_reuse;
int skc_bound_dev_if;
struct hlist_node skc_node;
struct hlist_node skc_bind_node;
atomic_t skc_refcnt;
+ unsigned int skc_hash;
struct proto *skc_prot;
};
Store in this 32 bits field the full hash, not masked by (ehash_size -
1) Using this full hash as the first comparison done in INET_MATCH
permits us immediatly skip the element without touching a second cache
line in case of a miss.
Suppress the sk_hashent/tw_hashent fields since skc_hash (aliased to
sk_hash and tw_hash) already contains the slot number if we mask with
(ehash_size - 1)
File include/net/inet_hashtables.h
64 bits platforms :
#define INET_MATCH(__sk, __hash, __cookie, __saddr, __daddr, __ports, __dif)\
(((__sk)->sk_hash == (__hash))
((*((__u64 *)&(inet_sk(__sk)->daddr)))== (__cookie)) && \
((*((__u32 *)&(inet_sk(__sk)->dport))) == (__ports)) && \
(!((__sk)->sk_bound_dev_if) || ((__sk)->sk_bound_dev_if == (__dif))))
32bits platforms:
#define TCP_IPV4_MATCH(__sk, __hash, __cookie, __saddr, __daddr, __ports, __dif)\
(((__sk)->sk_hash == (__hash)) && \
(inet_sk(__sk)->daddr == (__saddr)) && \
(inet_sk(__sk)->rcv_saddr == (__daddr)) && \
(!((__sk)->sk_bound_dev_if) || ((__sk)->sk_bound_dev_if == (__dif))))
- Adds a prefetch(head->chain.first) in
__inet_lookup_established()/__tcp_v4_check_established() and
__inet6_lookup_established()/__tcp_v6_check_established() and
__dccp_v4_check_established() to bring into cache the first element of the
list, before the {read|write}_lock(&head->lock);

I've found the problem in general. It affects any 64-bit
architecture. The problem occurs when you change the system time.
Suppose that when you boot your system clock is forward by a day.
This gets recorded down in skb_tv_base. You then wind the clock back
by a day. From that point onwards the offset will be negative which
essentially overflows the 32-bit variables they're stored in.
In fact, why don't we just store the real time stamp in those 32-bit
variables? After all, we're not going to overflow for quite a while
yet.
When we do overflow, we'll need a better solution of course.
