04128f233f [INET]: Collect common frag sysctl variables together
Some sysctl variables are used to tune the frag queues
management and it will be useful to work with them in
a common way in the future, so move them into one
structure, moreover they are the same for all the frag
management codes.

I don't place them in the existing inet_frags object,
introduced in the previous patch for two reasons:

 1. to keep them in the __read_mostly section;
 2. not to export the whole inet_frags objects outside.

7eb95156d9 [INET]: Collect frag queues management objects together
There are some objects that are common in all the places
which are used to keep track of frag queues, they are:

 * hash table
 * LRU list
 * rw lock
 * rnd number for hash function
 * the number of queues
 * the amount of memory occupied by queues
 * secret timer

Move all this stuff into one structure (struct inet_frags)
to make it possible use them uniformly in the future. Like
with the previous patch this mostly consists of hunks like

-    write_lock(&ipfrag_lock);
+    write_lock(&ip4_frags.lock);

To address the issue with exporting the number of queues and
the amount of memory occupied by queues outside the .c file
they are declared in, I introduce a couple of helpers.

5ab11c98d3 [INET]: Move common fields from frag_queues in one place.
Introduce the struct inet_frag_queue in include/net/inet_frag.h
file and place there all the common fields from three structs:

 * struct ipq in ipv4/ip_fragment.c
 * struct nf_ct_frag6_queue in nf_conntrack_reasm.c
 * struct frag_queue in ipv6/reassembly.c

After this, replace these fields on appropriate structures with
this structure instance and fix the users to use correct names
i.e. hunks like

-    atomic_dec(&fq->refcnt);
+    atomic_dec(&fq->q.refcnt);

(these occupy most of the patch)

4953f0fcc0 [IPv6]: Update setsockopt(IPV6_MULTICAST_IF) to support RFC 3493, try2
From RFC 3493, Section 5.2:

       IPV6_MULTICAST_IF

          Set the interface to use for outgoing multicast packets.  The
          argument is the index of the interface to use.  If the
          interface index is specified as zero, the system selects the
          interface (for example, by looking up the address in a routing
          table and using the resulting interface).

This patch adds support for (index == 0) to reset the value to it's 
original state, allowing the system to choose the best interface.  IPv4 
already behaves this way.

31910575a9 [IPv6]: Export userland ND options through netlink (RDNSS support)
As discussed before, this patch provides userland with a way to access
relevant options in Router Advertisements, after they are processed
and validated by the kernel. Extra options are processed in a generic
way; this patch only exports RDNSS options described in RFC5006, but
support to control which options are exported could be easily added.

A new rtnetlink message type is defined, to transport Neighbor
Discovery options, along with optional context information. At the
moment only the address of the router sending an RDNSS option is
included, but additional attributes may be later defined, if needed by
new use cases.

cd40b7d398 [NET]: make netlink user -> kernel interface synchronious
This patch make processing netlink user -> kernel messages synchronious.
This change was inspired by the talk with Alexey Kuznetsov about current
netlink messages processing. He says that he was badly wrong when introduced 
asynchronious user -> kernel communication.

The call netlink_unicast is the only path to send message to the kernel
netlink socket. But, unfortunately, it is also used to send data to the
user.

Before this change the user message has been attached to the socket queue
and sk->sk_data_ready was called. The process has been blocked until all
pending messages were processed. The bad thing is that this processing
may occur in the arbitrary process context.

This patch changes nlk->data_ready callback to get 1 skb and force packet
processing right in the netlink_unicast.

Kernel -> user path in netlink_unicast remains untouched.

EINTR processing for in netlink_run_queue was changed. It forces rtnl_lock
drop, but the process remains in the cycle until the message will be fully
processed. So, there is no need to use this kludges now.

007f0211a8 [IPSEC]: Store IPv6 nh pointer in mac_header on output
Current the x->mode->output functions store the IPv6 nh pointer in the
skb network header.  This is inconvenient because the network header then
has to be fixed up before the packet can leave the IPsec stack.  The mac
header field is unused on output so we can use that to store this instead.

This patch does that and removes the network header fix-up in xfrm_output.

It also uses ipv6_hdr where appropriate in the x->type->output functions.

There is also a minor clean-up in esp4 to make it use the same code as
esp6 to help any subsequent effort to merge the two.

Lastly it kills two redundant skb_set_* statements in BEET that were
simply copied over from transport mode.

14878f75ab [IPV6]: Add ICMPMsgStats MIB (RFC 4293) [rev 2]
Background: RFC 4293 deprecates existing individual, named ICMP
type counters to be replaced with the ICMPMsgStatsTable. This table
includes entries for both IPv4 and IPv6, and requires counting of all
ICMP types, whether or not the machine implements the type.

These patches "remove" (but not really) the existing counters, and
replace them with the ICMPMsgStats tables for v4 and v6.
It includes the named counters in the /proc places they were, but gets the
values for them from the new tables. It also counts packets generated
from raw socket output (e.g., OutEchoes, MLD queries, RA's from
radvd, etc).

Changes:
1) create icmpmsg_statistics mib
2) create icmpv6msg_statistics mib
3) modify existing counters to use these
4) modify /proc/net/snmp to add "IcmpMsg" with all ICMP types
        listed by number for easy SNMP parsing
5) modify /proc/net/snmp printing for "Icmp" to get the named data
        from new counters.

6) support per-interface ICMP stats
7) use common macro for per-device stat macros

maintaining unified 2.4 and 2.6 drivers is probably rather small.

8f4c1f9b04 [NETLINK]: Introduce nested and byteorder flag to netlink attribute
This change allows the generic attribute interface to be used within
the netfilter subsystem where this flag was initially introduced.

The byte-order flag is yet unused, it's intended use is to
allow automatic byte order convertions for all atomic types.

881d966b48 [NET]: Make the device list and device lookups per namespace.
This patch makes most of the generic device layer network
namespace safe.  This patch makes dev_base_head a
network namespace variable, and then it picks up
a few associated variables.  The functions:
dev_getbyhwaddr
dev_getfirsthwbytype
dev_get_by_flags
dev_get_by_name
__dev_get_by_name
dev_get_by_index
__dev_get_by_index
dev_ioctl
dev_ethtool
dev_load
wireless_process_ioctl

were modified to take a network namespace argument, and
deal with it.

vlan_ioctl_set and brioctl_set were modified so their
hooks will receive a network namespace argument.

So basically anthing in the core of the network stack that was
affected to by the change of dev_base was modified to handle
multiple network namespaces.  The rest of the network stack was
simply modified to explicitly use &init_net the initial network
namespace.  This can be fixed when those components of the network
stack are modified to handle multiple network namespaces.

For now the ifindex generator is left global.

Fundametally ifindex numbers are per namespace, or else
we will have corner case problems with migration when
we get that far.

At the same time there are assumptions in the network stack
that the ifindex of a network device won't change.  Making
the ifindex number global seems a good compromise until
the network stack can cope with ifindex changes when
you change namespaces, and the like.

b4b510290b [NET]: Support multiple network namespaces with netlink
Each netlink socket will live in exactly one network namespace,
this includes the controlling kernel sockets.

This patch updates all of the existing netlink protocols
to only support the initial network namespace.  Request
by clients in other namespaces will get -ECONREFUSED.
As they would if the kernel did not have the support for
that netlink protocol compiled in.

As each netlink protocol is updated to be multiple network
namespace safe it can register multiple kernel sockets
to acquire a presence in the rest of the network namespaces.

The implementation in af_netlink is a simple filter implementation
at hash table insertion and hash table look up time.

e9dc865340 [NET]: Make device event notification network namespace safe
Every user of the network device notifiers is either a protocol
stack or a pseudo device.  If a protocol stack that does not have
support for multiple network namespaces receives an event for a
device that is not in the initial network namespace it quite possibly
can get confused and do the wrong thing.

To avoid problems until all of the protocol stacks are converted
this patch modifies all netdev event handlers to ignore events on
devices that are not in the initial network namespace.

As the rest of the code is made network namespace aware these
checks can be removed.

e730c15519 [NET]: Make packet reception network namespace safe
This patch modifies every packet receive function
registered with dev_add_pack() to drop packets if they
are not from the initial network namespace.

This should ensure that the various network stacks do
not receive packets in a anything but the initial network
namespace until the code has been converted and is ready
for them.

1b8d7ae42d [NET]: Make socket creation namespace safe.
This patch passes in the namespace a new socket should be created in
and has the socket code do the appropriate reference counting.  By
virtue of this all socket create methods are touched.  In addition
the socket create methods are modified so that they will fail if
you attempt to create a socket in a non-default network namespace.

Failing if we attempt to create a socket outside of the default
network namespace ensures that as we incrementally make the network stack
network namespace aware we will not export functionality that someone
has not audited and made certain is network namespace safe.
Allowing us to partially enable network namespaces before all of the
exotic protocols are supported.

Any protocol layers I have missed will fail to compile because I now
pass an extra parameter into the socket creation code.

457c4cbc5a [NET]: Make /proc/net per network namespace
This patch makes /proc/net per network namespace.  It modifies the global
variables proc_net and proc_net_stat to be per network namespace.
The proc_net file helpers are modified to take a network namespace argument,
and all of their callers are fixed to pass &init_net for that argument.
This ensures that all of the /proc/net files are only visible and
usable in the initial network namespace until the code behind them
has been updated to be handle multiple network namespaces.

Making /proc/net per namespace is necessary as at least some files
in /proc/net depend upon the set of network devices which is per
network namespace, and even more files in /proc/net have contents
that are relevant to a single network namespace.
