To see the effect make sure you have an empty SAD.
On window1 "ip xfrm mon" and on window2 issue "ip xfrm state flush"
You get prompt back in window2 and you see the flush event on window1.
With this fix, you still get prompt on window1 but no event on window2.
Thanks to Alexey Dobriyan for finding a bug in earlier version
when using pfkey to do the flushing.

RFC 2367 says flushing behavior should be:
1) user space -> kernel: flush
2) kernel: flush
3) kernel -> user space: flush event to ALL listeners
This is not realistic today in the presence of selinux policies
which may reject the flush etc. So we make the sequence become:
1) user space -> kernel: flush
2) kernel: flush
3) kernel -> user space: flush response to originater from #1
4) if there were no errors then:
kernel -> user space: flush event to ALL listeners

The most needed command from nl80211, which Wireless Extensions had,
is support for power save mode. Add a simple command to make it possible
to enable and disable power save via nl80211.
I was also planning about extending the interface, for example adding the
timeout value, but after thinking more about this I decided not to do it.
Basically there were three reasons:
Firstly, the parameters for power save are very much hardware dependent.
Trying to find a unified interface which would work with all hardware, and
still make sense to users, will be very difficult.
Secondly, IEEE 802.11 power save implementation in Linux is still in state
of flux. We have a long way to still to go and there is no way to predict
what kind of implementation we will have after few years. And because we
need to support nl80211 interface a long time, practically forever, adding
now parameters to nl80211 might create maintenance problems later on.
Third issue are the users. Power save parameters are mostly used for
debugging, so debugfs is better, more flexible, interface for this.
For example, wpa_supplicant currently doesn't configure anything related
to power save mode. It's better to strive that kernel can automatically
optimise the power save parameters, like with help of pm qos network
and other traffic parameters.
Later on, when we have better understanding of power save, we can extend
this command with more features, if there's a need for that.

single fragment
When an ICMPV6_PKT_TOOBIG message is received with a MTU below 1280,
all further packets include a fragment header.
Unlike regular defragmentation, conntrack also needs to "reassemble"
those fragments in order to obtain a packet without the fragment
header for connection tracking. Currently nf_conntrack_reasm checks
whether a fragment has either IP6_MF set or an offset != 0, which
makes it ignore those fragments.
Remove the invalid check and make reassembly handle fragment queues
containing only a single fragment.

This patch fixes a bug that triggers an assertion if you create
a conntrack entry with a helper and netfilter debugging is enabled.
Basically, we hit the assertion because the confirmation flag is
set before the conntrack extensions are added. To fix this, we
move the extension addition before the aforementioned flag is
set.
This patch also removes the possibility of setting a helper for
existing conntracks. This operation would also trigger the
assertion since we are not allowed to add new extensions for
existing conntracks. We know noone that could benefit from
this operation sanely.
Thanks to Eric Dumazet for initial posting a preliminary patch
to address this issue.

This patch enables fast retransmissions after one dupACK for
TCP if the stream is identified as thin. This will reduce
latencies for thin streams that are not able to trigger fast
retransmissions due to high packet interarrival time. This
mechanism is only active if enabled by iocontrol or syscontrol
and the stream is identified as thin.

This patch will make TCP use only linear timeouts if the
stream is thin. This will help to avoid the very high latencies

timeouts is tried before exponential backoff is resumed.

Traffic (tcp) doesnot start on a vlan interface when gro is enabled.
Even the tcp handshake was not taking place.
This is because, the eth_type_trans call before the netif_receive_skb
in napi_gro_finish() resets the skb->dev to napi->dev from the previously
set vlan netdev interface. This causes the ip_route_input to drop the
incoming packet considering it as a packet coming from a martian source.
I could repro this on 2.6.32.7 (stable) and 2.6.33-rc7.
With this fix, the traffic starts and the test runs fine on both vlan
and non-vlan interfaces.

Add __percpu sparse annotations to net.
These annotations are to make sparse consider percpu variables to be
in a different address space and warn if accessed without going
through percpu accessors. This patch doesn't affect normal builds.
The macro and type tricks around snmp stats make things a bit
interesting. DEFINE/DECLARE_SNMP_STAT() macros mark the target field
as __percpu and SNMP_UPD_PO_STATS() macro is updated accordingly. All
snmp_mib_*() users which used to cast the argument to (void **) are
updated to cast it to (void __percpu **).

Stop computing the number of neighbour table settings we have by
counting the number of binary sysctls. This behaviour was silly
and meant that we could not add another neighbour table setting
without also adding another binary sysctl.

into neigh_sysctl_register. These parameters are no longer
used and so are just dead code.

When ipcomp_tunnel_attach fails we will call ipcomp_destroy twice.
This may lead to double-frees on certain structures.
As there is no reason to explicitly call ipcomp_destroy, this patch
removes it from ipcomp*.c and lets the standard xfrm_state destruction
take place.
This is based on the discovery and patch by Alexey Dobriyan.

ebtables can be compiled to perform userspace-side padding of
structures. In that case, all the structures are already in the
'native' format expected by the kernel.
This tries to determine what format the userspace program is
using.
For most set/getsockopts, this can be done by checking
the len argument for sizeof(compat_ebt_replace) and
re-trying the native handler on error.
In case of EBT_SO_GET_ENTRIES, the native handler is tried first,
it will error out early when checking the *len argument
(the compat version has to defer this check until after
iterating over the kernel data set once, to adjust for all
the structure size differences).
As this would cause error printks, remove those as well, as
recommended by Bart de Schuymer.

Main code for 32 bit userland ebtables binary with 64 bit kernels
support.
Tested on x86_64 kernel only, using 64bit ebtables binary
for output comparision.
At least ebt_mark, m_mark and ebt_limit need CONFIG_COMPAT hooks, too.
remaining problem:
The ebtables userland makefile has:
ifeq ($(shell uname -m),sparc64)
CFLAGS+=-DEBT_MIN_ALIGN=8 -DKERNEL_64_USERSPACE_32
endif
struct ebt_replace, ebt_entry_match etc. then contain userland-side
padding, i.e. even if we are called from a 32 bit userland, the
structures may already be in the right format.
