    There are still some correctness issues recently
    discovered which do not have a known fix that doesn't
    involve doing a full hash table scan on port bind.

    So revert for now.

  • This patch eliminates some duplicate code for the verification of
    receive checksums between UDP-Lite and UDP. It does this by
    introducing __skb_checksum_complete_head which is identical to
    __skb_checksum_complete_head apart from the fact that it takes
    a length parameter rather than computing the first skb->len bytes.

    As a result UDP-Lite will be able to use hardware checksum offload
    for packets which do not use partial coverage checksums. It also
    means that UDP-Lite loopback no longer does unnecessary checksum
    verification.

    If any NICs start support UDP-Lite this would also start working
    automatically.

    This patch removes the assumption that msg_flags has MSG_TRUNC clear
    upon entry in recvmsg.

  • This is a revision of the previously submitted patch, which alters
    the way files are organized and compiled in the following manner:

    * UDP and UDP-Lite now use separate object files
    * source file dependencies resolved via header files
    net/ipv{4,6}/udp_impl.h
    * order of inclusion files in udp.c/udplite.c adapted
    accordingly

    [NET/IPv4]: Support for the UDP-Lite protocol (RFC 3828)

    This patch adds support for UDP-Lite to the IPv4 stack, provided as an
    extension to the existing UDPv4 code:
    * generic routines are all located in net/ipv4/udp.c
    * UDP-Lite specific routines are in net/ipv4/udplite.c
    * MIB/statistics support in /proc/net/snmp and /proc/net/udplite
    * shared API with extensions for partial checksum coverage

    [NET/IPv6]: Extension for UDP-Lite over IPv6

    It extends the existing UDPv6 code base with support for UDP-Lite
    in the same manner as per UDPv4. In particular,
    * UDPv6 generic and shared code is in net/ipv6/udp.c
    * UDP-Litev6 specific extensions are in net/ipv6/udplite.c
    * MIB/statistics support in /proc/net/snmp6 and /proc/net/udplite6
    * support for IPV6_ADDRFORM
    * aligned the coding style of protocol initialisation with af_inet6.c
    * made the error handling in udpv6_queue_rcv_skb consistent;
    to return `-1' on error on all error cases
    * consolidation of shared code

    [NET]: UDP-Lite Documentation and basic XFRM/Netfilter support

    The UDP-Lite patch further provides
    * API documentation for UDP-Lite
    * basic xfrm support
    * basic netfilter support for IPv4 and IPv6 (LOG target)
