b82d1bb4fd tcp: unalias tcp_skb_cb flags and ip_dsfield
struct tcp_skb_cb contains a "flags" field containing either tcp flags
or IP dsfield depending on context (input or output path)

Introduce ip_dsfield to make the difference clear and ease maintenance.
If later we want to save space, we can union flags/ip_dsfield

7a269ffad7 tcp: ECN blackhole should not force quickack mode
While playing with a new ADSL box at home, I discovered that ECN
blackhole can trigger suboptimal quickack mode on linux : We send one
ACK for each incoming data frame, without any delay and eventual
piggyback.

This is because TCP_ECN_check_ce() considers that if no ECT is seen on a
segment, this is because this segment was a retransmit.

Refine this heuristic and apply it only if we seen ECT in a previous
segment, to detect ECN blackhole at IP level.

tcp_md5sig_pool is currently an 'array' (a percpu object) of pointers to

commit d0733d2e29 (Check for mistakenly passed in non-IPv4 address)

Relax the check, but make sure the bind() is done on INADDR_ANY

c6675233f9 netfilter: nf_queue: reject NF_STOLEN verdicts from userspace
A userspace listener may send (bogus) NF_STOLEN verdict, which causes skb leak.

This problem was previously fixed via
64507fdbc2 (netfilter:
nf_queue: fix NF_STOLEN skb leak) but this had to be reverted because
NF_STOLEN can also be returned by a netfilter hook when iterating the
rules in nf_reinject.

Reject userspace NF_STOLEN verdict, as suggested by Michal Miroslaw.

This is complementary to commit fad5444043
(netfilter: avoid double free in nf_reinject).

a262f0cdf1 Proportional Rate Reduction for TCP.
This patch implements Proportional Rate Reduction (PRR) for TCP.
PRR is an algorithm that determines TCP's sending rate in fast
recovery. PRR avoids excessive window reductions and aims for
the actual congestion window size at the end of recovery to be as
close as possible to the window determined by the congestion control
algorithm. PRR also improves accuracy of the amount of data sent
during loss recovery.

The patch implements the recommended flavor of PRR called PRR-SSRB
(Proportional rate reduction with slow start reduction bound) and
replaces the existing rate halving algorithm. PRR improves upon the
existing Linux fast recovery under a number of conditions including:
  1) burst losses where the losses implicitly reduce the amount of
outstanding data (pipe) below the ssthresh value selected by the
congestion control algorithm and,
  2) losses near the end of short flows where application runs out of
data to send.

As an example, with the existing rate halving implementation a single
loss event can cause a connection carrying short Web transactions to
go into the slow start mode after the recovery. This is because during
recovery Linux pulls the congestion window down to packets_in_flight+1
on every ACK. A short Web response often runs out of new data to send
and its pipe reduces to zero by the end of recovery when all its packets
are drained from the network. Subsequent HTTP responses using the same
connection will have to slow start to raise cwnd to ssthresh. PRR on
the other hand aims for the cwnd to be as close as possible to ssthresh
by the end of recovery.

97a8041020 ipv4: some rt_iif -> rt_route_iif conversions
As rt_iif represents input device even for packets
coming from loopback with output route, it is not an unique
key specific to input routes. Now rt_route_iif has such role,
it was fl.iif in 2.6.38, so better to change the checks at
some places to save CPU cycles and to restore 2.6.38 semantics.

compare_keys:
	- input routes: only rt_route_iif matters, rt_iif is same
	- output routes: only rt_oif matters, rt_iif is not
		used for matching in __ip_route_output_key
	- now we are back to 2.6.38 state

ip_route_input_common:
	- matching rt_route_iif implies input route
	- compared to 2.6.38 we eliminated one rth->fl.oif check
	because it was not needed even for 2.6.38

compare_hash_inputs:
	Only the change here is not an optimization, it has
	effect only for output routes. I assume I'm restoring
	the original intention to ignore oif, it was using fl.iif
	- now we are back to 2.6.38 state

797fd3913a netfilter: TCP and raw fix for ip_route_me_harder
TCP in some cases uses different global (raw) socket
to send RST and ACK. The transparent flag is not set there.
Currently, it is a problem for rerouting after the previous
change.

	Fix it by simplifying the checks in ip_route_me_harder
and use FLOWI_FLAG_ANYSRC even for sockets. It looks safe
because the initial routing allowed this source address to
be used and now we just have to make sure the packet is rerouted.

	As a side effect this also allows rerouting for normal
raw sockets that use spoofed source addresses which was not possible
even before we eliminated the ip_route_input call.

d547f727df ipv4: fix the reusing of routing cache entries
compare_keys and ip_route_input_common rely on
rt_oif for distinguishing of input and output routes
with same keys values. But sometimes the input route has
also same hash chain (keyed by iif != 0) with the output
routes (keyed by orig_oif=0). Problem visible if running
with small number of rhash_entries.

	Fix them to use rt_route_iif instead. By this way
input route can not be returned to users that request
output route.

reported in ip_local_out context, mostly for 255.255.255.255

6e5714eaf7 net: Compute protocol sequence numbers and fragment IDs using MD5.
Computers have become a lot faster since we compromised on the
partial MD4 hash which we use currently for performance reasons.

MD5 is a much safer choice, and is inline with both RFC1948 and
other ISS generators (OpenBSD, Solaris, etc.)

Furthermore, only having 24-bits of the sequence number be truly
unpredictable is a very serious limitation.  So the periodic
regeneration and 8-bit counter have been removed.  We compute and
use a full 32-bit sequence number.

For ipv6, DCCP was found to use a 32-bit truncated initial sequence
number (it needs 43-bits) and that is fixed here as well.

Gergely Kalman reported crashes in check_peer_redir().

It appears commit f39925dbde (ipv4: Cache learned redirect
information in inetpeer.) added a race, leading to possible NULL ptr
dereference.

Since we can now change dst neighbour, we should make sure a reader can
safely use a neighbour.

Add RCU protection to dst neighbour, and make sure check_peer_redir()
can be called safely by different cpus in parallel.

As neighbours are already freed after one RCU grace period, this patch
should not add typical RCU penalty (cache cold effects)

91c66c6893 netfilter: ip_queue: Fix small leak in ipq_build_packet_message()
ipq_build_packet_message() in net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_queue.c and
net/ipv6/netfilter/ip6_queue.c contain a small potential mem leak as
far as I can tell.

We allocate memory for 'skb' with alloc_skb() annd then call
 nlh = NLMSG_PUT(skb, 0, 0, IPQM_PACKET, size - sizeof(*nlh));

NLMSG_PUT is a macro
 NLMSG_PUT(skb, pid, seq, type, len) \
  		NLMSG_NEW(skb, pid, seq, type, len, 0)

that expands to NLMSG_NEW, which is also a macro which expands to:
 NLMSG_NEW(skb, pid, seq, type, len, flags) \
  	({	if (unlikely(skb_tailroom(skb) < (int)NLMSG_SPACE(len))) \
  			goto nlmsg_failure; \
  		__nlmsg_put(skb, pid, seq, type, len, flags); })

If we take the true branch of the 'if' statement and 'goto
nlmsg_failure', then we'll, at that point, return from
ipq_build_packet_message() without having assigned 'skb' to anything
and we'll leak the memory we allocated for it when it goes out of
scope.

Fix this by placing a 'kfree(skb)' at 'nlmsg_failure'.

I admit that I do not know how likely this to actually happen or even
if there's something that guarantees that it will never happen - I'm
not that familiar with this code, but if that is so, I've not been
able to spot it.

non-final fragments.

87c48fa3b4 ipv6: make fragment identifications less predictable
IPv6 fragment identification generation is way beyond what we use for
IPv4 : It uses a single generator. Its not scalable and allows DOS
attacks.

Now inetpeer is IPv6 aware, we can use it to provide a more secure and
scalable frag ident generator (per destination, instead of system wide)

This patch :
1) defines a new secure_ipv6_id() helper
2) extends inet_getid() to provide 32bit results
3) extends ipv6_select_ident() with a new dest parameter

5c74501f76 ipv4: save cpu cycles from check_leaf()
Compiler is not smart enough to avoid double BSWAP instructions in
ntohl(inet_make_mask(plen)).

Lets cache this value in struct leaf_info, (fill a hole on 64bit arches)

With route cache disabled, this saves ~2% of cpu in udpflood bench on
x86_64 machine.

d3aaeb38c4 net: Add ->neigh_lookup() operation to dst_ops
In the future dst entries will be neigh-less.  In that environment we
need to have an easy transition point for current users of
dst->neighbour outside of the packet output fast path.

8f40b161de neigh: Pass neighbour entry to output ops.
This will get us closer to being able to do "neigh stuff"
completely independent of the underlying dst_entry for
protocols (ipv4/ipv6) that wish to do so.

We will also be able to make dst entries neigh-less.
