716062fd4c [IPSEC]: Merge most of the input path
As part of the work on asynchronous cryptographic operations, we need
to be able to resume from the spot where they occur.  As such, it
helps if we isolate them to one spot.

This patch moves most of the remaining family-specific processing into
the common input code.

ef76bc23ef [IPV6]: Add ip6_local_out
Most callers of the LOCAL_OUT chain will set the IP packet length
before doing so.  They also share the same output function dst_output.

This patch creates a new function called ip6_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.

227620e295 [IPSEC]: Separate inner/outer mode processing on input
With inter-family transforms the inner mode differs from the outer
mode.  Attempting to handle both sides from the same function means
that it needs to handle both IPv4 and IPv6 which creates duplication
and confusion.

This patch separates the two parts on the input path so that each
function deals with one family only.

In particular, the functions xfrm4_extract_inut/xfrm6_extract_inut
moves the pertinent fields from the IPv4/IPv6 IP headers into a
neutral format stored in skb->cb.  This is then used by the inner mode
input functions to modify the inner IP header.  In this way the input
function no longer has to know about the outer address family.

function no longer has to know about the inner address family.

Since the extract functions are only called by tunnel modes (the only
modes that can support inter-family transforms), I've also moved the
xfrm*_tunnel_check_size calls into them.  This allows the correct ICMP
message to be sent as opposed to now where you might call icmp_send
with an IPv6 packet and vice versa.

a2deb6d26f [IPSEC]: Move x->outer_mode->output out of locked section
RO mode is the only one that requires a locked output function.  So
it's easier to move the lock into that function rather than requiring
everyone else to run under the lock.

In particular, this allows us to move the size check into the output
function without causing a potential dead-lock should the ICMP error
somehow hit the same SA on transmission.

e40b328615 [IPSEC]: Forbid BEET + ipcomp for now
While BEET can theoretically work with IPComp the current code can't
do that because it tries to construct a BEET mode tunnel type which
doesn't (and cannot) exist.  In fact as it is it won't even attach a
tunnel object at all for BEET which is bogus.

To support this fully we'd also need to change the policy checks on
input to recognise a plain tunnel as a legal variant of an optional
BEET transform.

This patch simply fails such constructions for now.

25ee3286dc [IPSEC]: Merge common code into xfrm_bundle_create
Half of the code in xfrm4_bundle_create and xfrm6_bundle_create are
common.  This patch extracts that logic and puts it into
xfrm_bundle_create.  The rest of it are then accessed through afinfo.

As a result this fixes the problem with inter-family transforms where
we treat every xfrm dst in the bundle as if it belongs to the top
family.

This patch also fixes a long-standing error-path bug where we may free
the xfrm states twice.

fff6938880 [IPSEC]: Make sure idev is consistent with dev in xfrm_dst
Previously we took the device from the bottom route and idev from the
top route.  This is bad because idev may well point to a different
device.  This patch changes it so that we get the idev from the device
directly.

It also makes it an error if either dev or idev is NULL.  This is
consistent with the rest of the routing code which also treats these
cases as errors.

I've removed the err initialisation in xfrm6_policy.c because it
achieves no purpose and hid a bug when an initial version of this
patch neglected to set err to -ENODEV (fortunately the IPv4 version
warned about it).

352e512c32 [NET]: Eliminate duplicate copies of dst_discard
We have a number of copies of dst_discard scattered around the place
which all do the same thing, namely free a packet on the input or
output paths.

This patch deletes all of them except dst_discard and points all the
users to it.

The only non-trivial bit is decnet where it returns an error.
However, conceptually this is identical to the blackhole functions
used in IPv4 and IPv6 which do not return errors.  So they should
either all return errors or all return zero.  For now I've stuck with
the majority and picked zero as the return value.

It doesn't really matter in practice since few if any driver would
react differently depending on a zero return value or NET_RX_DROP.

a9e527e3f9 IPoIB: improve IPv4/IPv6 to IB mcast mapping functions
An IPoIB subnet on an IB fabric that spans multiple IB subnets can't
use link-local scope in multicast GIDs.  The existing routines that
map IP/IPv6 multicast addresses into IB link-level addresses hard-code
the scope to link-local, and they also leave the partition key field
uninitialised.  This patch adds a parameter (the link-level broadcast
address) to the mapping routines, allowing them to initialise both the
scope and the P_Key appropriately, and fixes up the call sites.

The next step will be to add a way to configure the scope for an IPoIB
interface.

We omit (or delay) sending NSes for known-to-unreachable routers (in

4861 (Neighbor Discovery Protocol for IPv6), which does not remember

So, let's avoid mixing sending algorithm of RFC 4191 and that of RFC
4861, and make the algorithm more friendly with RFC 4861 if RFC 4191
is disabled.

230140cffa [INET]: Remove per bucket rwlock in tcp/dccp ehash table.
As done two years ago on IP route cache table (commit
22c047ccbc) , we can avoid using one
lock per hash bucket for the huge TCP/DCCP hash tables.

On a typical x86_64 platform, this saves about 2MB or 4MB of ram, for
litle performance differences. (we hit a different cache line for the
rwlock, but then the bucket cache line have a better sharing factor
among cpus, since we dirty it less often). For netstat or ss commands
that want a full scan of hash table, we perform fewer memory accesses.

Using a 'small' table of hashed rwlocks should be more than enough to
provide correct SMP concurrency between different buckets, without
using too much memory. Sizing of this table depends on
num_possible_cpus() and various CONFIG settings.

This patch provides some locking abstraction that may ease a future
work using a different model for TCP/DCCP table.

c5a432f1a1 [IPV6]: Use the {DEFINE|REF}_PROTO_INUSE infrastructure
Trivial patch to make "tcpv6,udpv6,udplitev6,rawv6" protocols uses the
fast "inuse sockets" infrastructure

Each protocol use then a static percpu var, instead of a dynamic one.
This saves some ram and some cpu cycles

286ab3d460 [NET]: Define infrastructure to keep 'inuse' changes in an efficent SMP/NUMA way.
"struct proto" currently uses an array stats[NR_CPUS] to track change on
'inuse' sockets per protocol.

If NR_CPUS is big, this means we use a big memory area for this.
Moreover, all this memory area is located on a single node on NUMA
machines, increasing memory pressure on the boot node.

In this patch, I tried to :

- Keep a fast !CONFIG_SMP implementation
- Keep a fast CONFIG_SMP implementation for often used protocols
(tcp,udp,raw,...)
- Introduce a NUMA efficient implementation

Some helper macros are defined in include/net/sock.h
These macros take into account CONFIG_SMP

If a "struct proto" is declared without using DEFINE_PROTO_INUSE /
REF_PROTO_INUSE
macros, it will automatically use a default implementation, using a
dynamically allocated percpu zone.
This default implementation will be NUMA efficient, but might use 32/64
bytes per possible cpu
because of current alloc_percpu() implementation.
However it still should be better than previous implementation based on
stats[NR_CPUS] field.

When a "struct proto" is changed to use the new macros, we use a single
static "int" percpu variable,
lowering the memory and cpu costs, still preserving NUMA efficiency.

7a0ff716c2 [IPv6] SNMP: Restore Udp6InErrors incrementation
As the checksum verification is postponed till user calls recv or poll,
the inrementation of Udp6InErrors counter should be also postponed.
Currently, it is postponed in non-blocking operation case. However it
should be postponed in all case like the IPv4 code.

bf138862b1 [IPV6]: Consolidate the ip cork destruction in ip6_output.c
The ip6_push_pending_frames and ip6_flush_pending_frames do the
same things to flush the sock's cork. Move this into a separate
function and save ~100 bytes from the .text

c46f2334c8 [SG] Get rid of __sg_mark_end()
sg_mark_end() overwrites the page_link information, but all users want
__sg_mark_end() behaviour where we just set the end bit. That is the most
natural way to use the sg list, since you'll fill it in and then mark the
end point.

So change sg_mark_end() to only set the termination bit. Add a sg_magic
debug check as well, and clear a chain pointer if it is set.
