6523ce1525 ipvs: fix active FTP
- Do not create expectation when forwarding the PORT
  command to avoid blocking the connection. The problem is that
  nf_conntrack_ftp.c:help() tries to create the same expectation later in
  POST_ROUTING and drops the packet with "dropping packet" message after
  failure in nf_ct_expect_related.

- Change ip_vs_update_conntrack to alter the conntrack
  for related connections from real server. If we do not alter the reply in
  this direction the next packet from client sent to vport 20 comes as NEW
  connection. We alter it but may be some collision happens for both
  conntracks and the second conntrack gets destroyed immediately. The
  connection stucks too.

3fb5a99191 cls_cgroup: Fix rcu lockdep warning
Dave reported an rcu lockdep warning on 2.6.35.4 kernel

task->cgroups and task->cgroups->subsys[i] are protected by RCU.
So we avoid accessing invalid pointers here. This might happen,
for example, when you are deref-ing those pointers while someone
move @task from one cgroup to another.

3d5b99ae82 TCP: update initial windows according to RFC 5681
This updates the use of larger initial windows, as originally specified in
RFC 3390, to use the newer IW values specified in RFC 5681, section 3.1.

The changes made in RFC 5681 are:
 a) the setting now is more clearly specified in units of segments (as the
    comments  by John Heffner emphasized, this was not very clear in RFC 3390);
 b) for connections with 1095 < SMSS <= 2190 there is now a change:
    - RFC 3390 says that IW <= 4380,
    - RFC 5681 says that IW = 3 * SMSS <= 6570.

Since RFC 3390 is older and "only" proposed standard, whereas the newer RFC 5681
is already draft standard, it seems preferable to use the newer IW variant.

dca43c75e7 tcp: Add TCP_USER_TIMEOUT socket option.
This patch provides a "user timeout" support as described in RFC793. The
socket option is also needed for the the local half of RFC5482 "TCP User
Timeout Option".

TCP_USER_TIMEOUT is a TCP level socket option that takes an unsigned int,
when > 0, to specify the maximum amount of time in ms that transmitted
data may remain unacknowledged before TCP will forcefully close the
corresponding connection and return ETIMEDOUT to the application. If
0 is given, TCP will continue to use the system default.

Increasing the user timeouts allows a TCP connection to survive extended
periods without end-to-end connectivity. Decreasing the user timeouts
allows applications to "fail fast" if so desired. Otherwise it may take
upto 20 minutes with the current system defaults in a normal WAN
environment.

The socket option can be made during any state of a TCP connection, but
is only effective during the synchronized states of a connection
(ESTABLISHED, FIN-WAIT-1, FIN-WAIT-2, CLOSE-WAIT, CLOSING, or LAST-ACK).
Moreover, when used with the TCP keepalive (SO_KEEPALIVE) option,
TCP_USER_TIMEOUT will overtake keepalive to determine when to close a
connection due to keepalive failure.

The option does not change in anyway when TCP retransmits a packet, nor
when a keepalive probe will be sent.

This option, like many others, will be inherited by an acceptor from its
listener.

34d4bc4d41 mac80211: support runtime interface type changes
Add support to mac80211 for changing the interface
type even when the interface is UP, if the driver
supports it.

To achieve this
 * add a new driver callback for switching,
 * split some of the interface up/down code out
   into new functions (do_open/do_stop), and
 * maintain an own __SDATA_RUNNING bit that will
   not be set during interface type, so that any
   other code doesn't use the interface.

8789d459bc mac80211: allow scan to complete from any context
The ieee80211_scan_completed() function was a frequent
source of potential deadlocks, since it is called by
drivers but may call back into drivers, so drivers had
to make sure to call it without any locks held, which
frequently lead to more complex code in drivers. Avoid
that problem by allowing the function to be called in
any context, and queueing the actual work it does.
Also update the documentation for it to indicate this.

ad1af0fedb tcp: Combat per-cpu skew in orphan tests.
As reported by Anton Blanchard when we use
percpu_counter_read_positive() to make our orphan socket limit checks,
the check can be off by up to num_cpus_online() * batch (which is 32
by default) which on a 128 cpu machine can be as large as the default
orphan limit itself.

Fix this by doing the full expensive sum check if the optimized check
triggers.

00959ade36 PPTP: PPP over IPv4 (Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol)
PPP: introduce "pptp" module which implements point-to-point tunneling protocol using pppox framework
NET: introduce the "gre" module for demultiplexing GRE packets on version criteria
     (required to pptp and ip_gre may coexists)
NET: ip_gre: update to use the "gre" module

This patch introduces then pptp support to the linux kernel which
dramatically speeds up pptp vpn connections and decreases cpu usage in
comparison of existing user-space implementation
(poptop/pptpclient). There is accel-pptp project
(https://sourceforge.net/projects/accel-pptp/) to utilize this module,
it contains plugin for pppd to use pptp in client-mode and modified
pptpd (poptop) to build high-performance pptp NAS.

There was many changes from initial submitted patch, most important are:
1. using rcu instead of read-write locks
2. using static bitmap instead of dynamically allocated
3. using vmalloc for memory allocation instead of BITS_PER_LONG + __get_free_pages
4. fixed many coding style issues

net/sched: add ACT_CSUM action to update packets checksums

ACT_CSUM can be called just after ACT_PEDIT in order to re-compute some
altered checksums in IPv4 and IPv6 packets. The following checksums are
supported by this patch:
 - IPv4: IPv4 header, ICMP, IGMP, TCP, UDP & UDPLite
 - IPv6: ICMPv6, TCP, UDP & UDPLite
It's possible to request in the same action to update different kind of
checksums, if the packets flow mix TCP, UDP and UDPLite, ...

An example of usage is done in the associated iproute2 patch.

Version 3 changes:
 - remove useless goto instructions
 - improve IPv6 hop options decoding

Version 2 changes:
 - coding style correction
 - remove useless arguments of some functions
 - use stack in tcf_csum_dump()
 - add tcf_csum_skb_nextlayer() to factor code

This patch implement basic infrastructure to support use of NAPI by

Because mac80211 devices can support multiple netdevs, a dummy netdev
is used for interfacing with the NAPI code in the core of the network
stack.  That structure is hidden from the hardware drivers, but the
actual napi_struct is exposed in the ieee80211_hw structure so that the
poll routines in drivers can retrieve that structure.  Hardware drivers
can also specify their own weight value for NAPI polling.

db12d647cc Bluetooth: Use 3-DH5 payload size for default ERTM max PDU size
The previous value of 672 for L2CAP_DEFAULT_MAX_PDU_SIZE is based on
the default L2CAP MTU.  That default MTU is calculated from the size
of two DH5 packets, minus ACL and L2CAP b-frame header overhead.

ERTM is used with newer basebands that typically support larger 3-DH5
packets, and i-frames and s-frames have more header overhead.  With
clean RF conditions, basebands will typically attempt to use 1021-byte
3-DH5 packets for maximum throughput.  Adjusting for 2 bytes of ACL
headers plus 10 bytes of worst-case L2CAP headers yields 1009 bytes
of payload.

This PDU size imposes less overhead for header bytes and gives the
baseband the option to choose 3-DH5 packets, but is small enough for
ERTM traffic to interleave well with other L2CAP or SCO data.
672-byte payloads do not allow the most efficient over-the-air
packet choice, and cannot achieve maximum throughput over BR/EDR.

txattrcreate gets a fid pointing to xattr. This fid can later be
used to set the xattr value.

flag value is derived from set Linux setxattr. The manpage says
"The flags parameter can be used to refine the semantics of the operation.
XATTR_CREATE specifies a pure create, which fails if the named attribute
exists already. XATTR_REPLACE specifies a pure replace operation, which
fails if the named attribute does not already exist. By default (no flags),
the extended attribute will be created if need be, or will simply replace
the value if the attribute exists."

The actual setxattr operation happens when the fid is clunked. At that point
the written byte count and the attr_size specified in TXATTRCREATE should be
same otherwise an error will be returned.

5643135a28 fs/9p: This patch implements TLCREATE for 9p2000.L protocol.
SYNOPSIS

    size[4] Tlcreate tag[2] fid[4] name[s] flags[4] mode[4] gid[4]

    size[4] Rlcreate tag[2] qid[13] iounit[4]

DESCRIPTION

The Tlreate request asks the file server to create a new regular file with the
name supplied, in the directory (dir) represented by fid.
The mode argument specifies the permissions to use. New file is created with
the uid if the fid and with supplied gid.

The flags argument represent Linux access mode flags with which the caller
is requesting to open the file with. Protocol allows all the Linux access
modes but it is upto the server to allow/disallow any of these acess modes.
If the server doesn't support any of the access mode, it is expected to
return error.

87d7845aa0 9p: Implement client side of setattr for 9P2000.L protocol.
SYNOPSIS

      size[4] Tsetattr tag[2] attr[n]

      size[4] Rsetattr tag[2]

    DESCRIPTION

      The setattr command changes some of the file status information.
      attr resembles the iattr structure used in Linux kernel. It
      specifies which status parameter is to be changed and to what
      value. It is laid out as follows:

         valid[4]
            specifies which status information is to be changed. Possible
            values are:
            ATTR_MODE       (1 << 0)
            ATTR_UID        (1 << 1)
            ATTR_GID        (1 << 2)
            ATTR_SIZE       (1 << 3)
            ATTR_ATIME      (1 << 4)
            ATTR_MTIME      (1 << 5)
            ATTR_ATIME_SET  (1 << 7)
            ATTR_MTIME_SET  (1 << 8)

            The last two bits represent whether the time information
            is being sent by the client's user space. In the absense
            of these bits the server always uses server's time.

         mode[4]
            File permission bits

         uid[4]
            Owner id of file

         gid[4]
            Group id of the file

         size[8]
            File size

         atime_sec[8]
            Time of last file access, seconds

         atime_nsec[8]
            Time of last file access, nanoseconds

         mtime_sec[8]
            Time of last file modification, seconds

         mtime_nsec[8]
            Time of last file modification, nanoseconds

Explanation of the patches:
--------------------------

*) The kernel just copies relevent contents of iattr structure to
   p9_iattr_dotl structure and passes it down to the client. The
   only check it has is calling inode_change_ok()
*) The p9_iattr_dotl structure does not have ctime and ia_file
   parameters because I don't think these are needed in our case.
   The client user space can request updating just ctime by calling
   chown(fd, -1, -1). This is handled on server side without a need
   for putting ctime on the wire.
*) The server currently supports changing mode, time, ownership and
   size of the file.
*) 9P RFC says "Either all the changes in wstat request happen, or
   none of them does: if the request succeeds, all changes were made;
   if it fails, none were."
   I have not done anything to implement this specifically because I
   don't see a reason.

        This patch implements the client side of getattr implementation for
        9P2000.L. It introduces a new structure p9_stat_dotl for getting
        Linux stat information along with QID. The data layout is similar to
        stat structure in Linux user space with the following major
        differences:

        inode (st_ino) is not part of data. Instead qid is.

        device (st_dev) is not part of data because this doesn't make sense
        on the client.

        All time variables are 64 bit wide on the wire. The kernel seems to use
        32 bit variables for these variables. However, some of the architectures
        have used 64 bit variables and glibc exposes 64 bit variables to user
        space on some architectures. Hence to be on the safer side we have made
        these 64 bit in the protocol. Refer to the comments in
        include/asm-generic/stat.h

        There are some additional fields: st_btime_sec, st_btime_nsec, st_gen,
        st_data_version apart from the bitmask, st_result_mask. The bit mask
        is filled by the server to indicate which stat fields have been
        populated by the server. Currently there is no clean way for the
        server to obtain these additional fields, so it sends back just the
        basic fields.

7751bdb3a0 9p: readdir implementation for 9p2000.L
This patch implements the kernel part of readdir() implementation for 9p2000.L

    Change from V3: Instead of inode, server now sends qids for each dirent

    SYNOPSIS

    size[4] Treaddir tag[2] fid[4] offset[8] count[4]
    size[4] Rreaddir tag[2] count[4] data[count]

    DESCRIPTION

    The readdir request asks the server to read the directory specified by 'fid'
    at an offset specified by 'offset' and return as many dirent structures as
    possible that fit into count bytes. Each dirent structure is laid out as
    follows.

            qid.type[1]
              the type of the file (directory, etc.), represented as a bit
              vector corresponding to the high 8 bits of the file's mode
              word.

            qid.vers[4]
              version number for given path

            qid.path[8]
              the file server's unique identification for the file

            offset[8]
              offset into the next dirent.

            type[1]
              type of this directory entry.

            name[256]
              name of this directory entry.

    This patch adds v9fs_dir_readdir_dotl() as the readdir() call for 9p2000.L.
    This function sends P9_TREADDIR command to the server. In response the server
    sends a buffer filled with dirent structures. This is different from the
    existing v9fs_dir_readdir() call which receives stat structures from the server.
    This results in significant speedup of readdir() on large directories.
    For example, doing 'ls >/dev/null' on a directory with 10000 files on my
    laptop takes 1.088 seconds with the existing code, but only takes 0.339 seconds
    with the new readdir.

3b87956ea6 net sched: fix race in mirred device removal
This fixes hang when target device of mirred packet classifier
action is removed.

If a mirror or redirection action is configured to cause packets
to go to another device, the classifier holds a ref count, but was assuming
the adminstrator cleaned up all redirections before removing. The fix
is to add a notifier and cleanup during unregister.

The new list is implicitly protected by RTNL mutex because
it is held during filter add/delete as well as notifier.

7f1c407579 IPVS: make FTP work with full NAT support
Use nf_conntrack/nf_nat code to do the packet mangling and the TCP
sequence adjusting.  The function 'ip_vs_skb_replace' is now dead
code, so it is removed.

To SNAT FTP, use something like:

% iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -m ipvs --vaddr 192.168.100.30/32 \
    --vport 21 -j SNAT --to-source 192.168.10.10
and for the data connections in passive mode:

% iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -m ipvs --vaddr 192.168.100.30/32 \
    --vportctl 21 -j SNAT --to-source 192.168.10.10
using '-m state --state RELATED' would also works.

Make sure the kernel modules ip_vs_ftp, nf_conntrack_ftp, and
nf_nat_ftp are loaded.

4ced3f74da mac80211: move QoS-enable to BSS info
Ever since

commit e1b3ec1a2a
Author: Stanislaw Gruszka <sgruszka@redhat.com>
Date:   Mon Mar 29 12:18:34 2010 +0200

    mac80211: explicitly disable/enable QoS

mac80211 is telling drivers, in particular
iwlwifi, whether QoS is enabled or not.

However, this is only relevant for station mode,
since only then will any device send nullfunc
frames and need to know whether they should be
QoS frames or not. In other modes, there are
(currently) no frames the device is supposed to
send.

When you now consider virtual interfaces, it
becomes apparent that the current mechanism is
inadequate since it enables/disables QoS on a
global scale, where for nullfunc frames it has
to be on a per-interface scale.

Due to the above considerations, we can change
the way mac80211 advertises the QoS state to
drivers to only ever advertise it as "off" in
station mode, and make it a per-BSS setting.

cca5cf91c7 nfnetlink_log: do not expose NFULNL_COPY_DISABLED to user-space
This patch moves NFULNL_COPY_PACKET definition from
linux/netfilter/nfnetlink_log.h to net/netfilter/nfnetlink_log.h
since this copy mode is only for internal use.

I have also changed the value from 0x03 to 0xff. Thus, we avoid
a gap from user-space that may confuse users if we add new
copy modes in the future.

This change was introduced in:
http://www.spinics.net/lists/netfilter-devel/msg13535.html

Since this change is not included in any stable Linux kernel,
I think it's safe to make this change now. Anyway, this copy
mode does not make any sense from user-space, so this patch
should not break any existing setup.

b0f77d0eae net: fix problem in reading sock TX queue
Fix problem in reading the tx_queue recorded in a socket.  In
dev_pick_tx, the TX queue is read by doing a check with
sk_tx_queue_recorded on the socket, followed by a sk_tx_queue_get.
The problem is that there is not mutual exclusion across these
calls in the socket so it it is possible that the queue in the
sock can be invalidated after sk_tx_queue_recorded is called so
that sk_tx_queue get returns -1, which sets 65535 in queue_index
and thus dev_pick_tx returns 65536 which is a bogus queue and
can cause crash in dev_queue_xmit.

We fix this by only calling sk_tx_queue_get which does the proper
checks.  The interface is that sk_tx_queue_get returns the TX queue
if the sock argument is non-NULL and TX queue is recorded, else it
returns -1.  sk_tx_queue_recorded is no longer used so it can be
completely removed.

f0796d5c73 net: decreasing real_num_tx_queues needs to flush qdisc
Reducing real_num_queues needs to flush the qdisc otherwise
skbs with queue_mappings greater then real_num_tx_queues can
be sent to the underlying driver.

The flow for this is,

dev_queue_xmit()
	dev_pick_tx()
		skb_tx_hash()  => hash using real_num_tx_queues
		skb_set_queue_mapping()
	...
	qdisc_enqueue_root() => enqueue skb on txq from hash
...
dev->real_num_tx_queues -= n
...
sch_direct_xmit()
	dev_hard_start_xmit()
		ndo_start_xmit(skb,dev) => skb queue set with old hash

skbs are enqueued on the qdisc with skb->queue_mapping set
0 < queue_mappings < real_num_tx_queues.  When the driver
decreases real_num_tx_queues skb's may be dequeued from the
qdisc with a queue_mapping greater then real_num_tx_queues.

This fixes a case in ixgbe where this was occurring with DCB
and FCoE. Because the driver is using queue_mapping to map
skbs to tx descriptor rings we can potentially map skbs to
rings that no longer exist.

fa61cf70a6 cfg80211/mac80211: Update set_tx_power to use mBm instead of dBm units
In preparation for a TX power setting interface in the nl80211, change the
.set_tx_power function to use mBm units instead of dBm for greater accuracy and
smaller power levels.

Also, already in advance move the tx_power_setting enumeration to nl80211.

This change affects the .tx_set_power function prototype. As a result, the
corresponding changes are needed to modules using it. These are mac80211,
iwmc3200wifi and rndis_wlan.

f90754c15f mac80211: Add interface for driver to temporarily disable dynamic ps
This mechanism introduced in this patch applies (at least) for hardware
designs using a single shared antenna for both WLAN and BT. In these designs,
the antenna must be toggled between WLAN and BT.

In those hardware, managing WLAN co-existence with Bluetooth requires WLAN
full power save whenever there is Bluetooth activity in order for WLAN to be
able to periodically relinquish the antenna to be used for BT. This is because
BT can only access the shared antenna when WLAN is idle or asleep.

Some hardware, for instance the wl1271, are able to indicate to the host
whenever there is BT traffic. In essence, the hardware will send an indication
to the host whenever there is, for example, SCO traffic or A2DP traffic, and
will send another indication when the traffic is over.

The hardware gets information of Bluetooth traffic via hardware co-existence
control lines - these lines are used to negotiate the shared antenna
ownership. The hardware will give the antenna to BT whenever WLAN is sleeping.

This patch adds the interface to mac80211 to facilitate temporarily disabling
of dynamic power save as per request of the WLAN driver. This interface will
immediately force WLAN to full powersave, hence allowing BT coexistence as
described above.

In these kind of shared antenna desings, when WLAN powersave is fully disabled,
Bluetooth will not work simultaneously with WLAN at all. This patch does not
address that problem. This interface will not change PSM state, so if PSM is
disabled it will remain so. Solving this problem requires knowledge about BT
state, and is best done in user-space.

c68cd6cc21 netfilter: nf_nat: support user-specified SNAT rules in LOCAL_IN
2.6.34 introduced 'conntrack zones' to deal with cases where packets
from multiple identical networks are handled by conntrack/NAT. Packets
are looped through veth devices, during which they are NATed to private
addresses, after which they can continue normally through the stack
and possibly have NAT rules applied a second time.

This works well, but is needlessly complicated for cases where only
a single SNAT/DNAT mapping needs to be applied to these packets. In that
case, all that needs to be done is to assign each network to a seperate
zone and perform NAT as usual. However this doesn't work for packets
destined for the machine performing NAT itself since its corrently not
possible to configure SNAT mappings for the LOCAL_IN chain.

This patch adds a new INPUT chain to the NAT table and changes the
targets performing SNAT to be usable in that chain.

Example usage with two identical networks (192.168.0.0/24) on eth0/eth1:

iptables -t raw -A PREROUTING -i eth0 -j CT --zone 1
iptables -t raw -A PREROUTING -i eth0 -j MARK --set-mark 1
iptables -t raw -A PREROUTING -i eth1 -j CT --zone 2
iptabels -t raw -A PREROUTING -i eth1 -j MARK --set-mark 2

iptables -t nat -A INPUT       -m mark --mark 1 -j NETMAP --to 10.0.0.0/24
iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -m mark --mark 1 -j NETMAP --to 10.0.0.0/24
iptables -t nat -A INPUT       -m mark --mark 2 -j NETMAP --to 10.0.1.0/24
iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -m mark --mark 2 -j NETMAP --to 10.0.1.0/24

iptables -t raw -A PREROUTING -d 10.0.0.0/24 -j CT --zone 1
iptables -t raw -A OUTPUT     -d 10.0.0.0/24 -j CT --zone 1

317fe0e6c5 inetpeer: restore small inet_peer structures
Addition of rcu_head to struct inet_peer added 16bytes on 64bit arches.

Thats a bit unfortunate, since old size was exactly 64 bytes.

This can be solved, using an union between this rcu_head an four fields,
that are normally used only when a refcount is taken on inet_peer.
rcu_head is used only when refcnt=-1, right before structure freeing.

Add a inet_peer_refcheck() function to check this assertion for a while.

We can bring back SLAB_HWCACHE_ALIGN qualifier in kmem cache creation.

aa1039e73c inetpeer: RCU conversion
inetpeer currently uses an AVL tree protected by an rwlock.

It's possible to make most lookups use RCU

1) Add a struct rcu_head to struct inet_peer

2) add a lookup_rcu_bh() helper to perform lockless and opportunistic
lookup. This is a normal function, not a macro like lookup().

3) Add a limit to number of links followed by lookup_rcu_bh(). This is
needed in case we fall in a loop.

4) add an smp_wmb() in link_to_pool() right before node insert.

5) make unlink_from_pool() use atomic_cmpxchg() to make sure it can take
last reference to an inet_peer, since lockless readers could increase
refcount, even while we hold peers.lock.

6) Delay struct inet_peer freeing after rcu grace period so that
lookup_rcu_bh() cannot crash.

7) inet_getpeer() first attempts lockless lookup.
   Note this lookup can fail even if target is in AVL tree, but a
concurrent writer can let tree in a non correct form.
   If this attemps fails, lock is taken a regular lookup is performed
again.

8) convert peers.lock from rwlock to a spinlock

9) Remove SLAB_HWCACHE_ALIGN when peer_cachep is created, because
rcu_head adds 16 bytes on 64bit arches, doubling effective size (64 ->
128 bytes)
In a future patch, this is probably possible to revert this part, if rcu
field is put in an union to share space with rid, ip_id_count, tcp_ts &
tcp_ts_stamp. These fields being manipulated only with refcnt > 0.

ff61638105 mac80211: Fix ps-qos network latency handling
The ps-qos latency handling is broken. It uses predetermined latency values
to select specific dynamic PS timeouts. With common AP configurations, these
values overlap with beacon interval and are therefore essentially useless
(for network latencies less than the beacon interval, PSM is disabled.)

This patch remedies the problem by replacing the predetermined network latency
values with one high value (1900ms) which is used to go trigger full psm. For
backwards compatibility, the value 2000ms is still mapped to a dynamic ps
timeout of 100ms.

Currently also the mac80211 internal value for storing user space configured
dynamic PSM values is incorrectly in the driver visible ieee80211_conf struct.
Move it to the ieee80211_local struct.

The locking in this case is quite complex. Fix the problem by rewriting the
way the hardware ARP filter list is handled - i.e. make a copy of the address
list to the bss_conf struct, and provide that list to the hardware driver
when needed.

The current patch will enable filtering also in promiscuous mode. This may need
to be changed in the future.

592fcb9dfa ip: ip_ra_control() rcu fix
commit 66018506e1 (ip: Router Alert RCU conversion) introduced RCU
lookups to ip_call_ra_chain(). It missed proper deinit phase :
When ip_ra_control() deletes an ip_ra_chain, it should make sure
ip_call_ra_chain() users can not start to use socket during the rcu
grace period. It should also delay the sock_put() after the grace
period, or we risk a premature socket freeing and corruptions, as
raw sockets are not rcu protected yet.

This delay avoids using expensive atomic_inc_not_zero() in
ip_call_ra_chain().

5bfddbd46a netfilter: nf_conntrack: IPS_UNTRACKED bit
NOTRACK makes all cpus share a cache line on nf_conntrack_untracked
twice per packet. This is bad for performance.
__read_mostly annotation is also a bad choice.

This patch introduces IPS_UNTRACKED bit so that we can use later a
per_cpu untrack structure more easily.

A new helper, nf_ct_untracked_get() returns a pointer to
nf_conntrack_untracked.

Another one, nf_ct_untracked_status_or() is used by nf_nat_init() to add
IPS_NAT_DONE_MASK bits to untracked status.

nf_ct_is_untracked() prototype is changed to work on a nf_conn pointer.

a8b690f98b tcp: Fix slowness in read /proc/net/tcp
This patch address a serious performance issue in reading the
TCP sockets table (/proc/net/tcp).

Reading the full table is done by a number of sequential read
operations.  At each read operation, a seek is done to find the
last socket that was previously read.  This seek operation requires
that the sockets in the table need to be counted up to the current
file position, and to count each of these requires taking a lock for
each non-empty bucket.  The whole algorithm is O(n^2).

The fix is to cache the last bucket value, offset within the bucket,
and the file position returned by the last read operation.   On the
next sequential read, the bucket and offset are used to find the
last read socket immediately without needing ot scan the previous
buckets  the table.  This algorithm t read the whole table is O(n).

The improvement offered by this patch is easily show by performing
cat'ing /proc/net/tcp on a machine with a lot of connections.  With
about 182K connections in the table, I see the following:

- Without patch
time cat /proc/net/tcp > /dev/null

real	1m56.729s
user	0m0.214s
sys	1m56.344s

- With patch
time cat /proc/net/tcp > /dev/null

real	0m0.894s
user	0m0.290s
sys	0m0.594s

xfrm triggers a warning if dst_pop() drops a refcount
on a noref dst. This patch changes dst_pop() to
skb_dst_pop(). skb_dst_pop() drops the refcnt only
on a refcounted dst. Also we don't clone the child
dst_entry, so it is not refcounted and we can use
skb_dst_set_noref() in xfrm_output_one().

2b2c009ecf mac80211: Add support for hardware ARP query filtering
Some hardware allow extended filtering of ARP frames not intended for
the host. To perform such filtering, the hardware needs to know the current
IP address(es) of the host, bound to its interface.

Add support for ARP filtering to mac80211 by adding a new op to the driver
interface, allowing to configure the current IP addresses. This op is called
upon association with the currently configured address(es), and when
associated whenever the IP address(es) change.

This patch adds configuration of IPv4 addresses only, as IPv6 addresses don't
need ARP filtering.

252aa631f8 cfg80211: make action channel type optional
When sending action frames, we want to verify
that we do that on the correct channel. However,
checking the channel type in addition can get in
the way, since the channel type could change on
the fly during an association, and it's not
useful to have the channel type anyway since it
has no effect on the transmission. Therefore,
make it optional to specify so that if wanted,
it can still be checked, but is not required.

20c59de2e6 ipv6: Refactor update of IPv6 flowi destination address for srcrt (RH) option
There are more than a dozen occurrences of following code in the
IPv6 stack:

    if (opt && opt->srcrt) {
            struct rt0_hdr *rt0 = (struct rt0_hdr *) opt->srcrt;
            ipv6_addr_copy(&final, &fl.fl6_dst);
            ipv6_addr_copy(&fl.fl6_dst, rt0->addr);
            final_p = &final;
    }

Replace those with a helper. Note that the helper overrides final_p
in all cases. This is ok as final_p was previously initialized to
NULL when declared.

79640a4ca6 net: add additional lock to qdisc to increase throughput
When many cpus compete for sending frames on a given qdisc, the qdisc
spinlock suffers from very high contention.

The cpu owning __QDISC_STATE_RUNNING bit has same priority to acquire
the lock, and cannot dequeue packets fast enough, since it must wait for
this lock for each dequeued packet.

One solution to this problem is to force all cpus spinning on a second
lock before trying to get the main lock, when/if they see
__QDISC_STATE_RUNNING already set.

The owning cpu then compete with at most one other cpu for the main
lock, allowing for higher dequeueing rate.

Based on a previous patch from Alexander Duyck. I added the heuristic to
avoid the atomic in fast path, and put the new lock far away from the
cache line used by the dequeue worker. Also try to release the busylock
lock as late as possible.

Tests with following script gave a boost from ~50.000 pps to ~600.000
pps on a dual quad core machine (E5450 @3.00GHz), tg3 driver.
(A single netperf flow can reach ~800.000 pps on this platform)

  for i in `seq 0 7`; do
