Can be used to match packets against netfilter ip sets created via ipset(8).
skb->sk_iif is used as 'incoming interface', skb->dev is 'outgoing interface'.Since ipset is usually called from netfilter, the ematch
initializes a fake xt_action_param, pulls the ip header into the
linear area and also sets skb->data to the IP header (otherwise
matching Layer 4 set types doesn't work).Tested-by: Mr Dash Four

6lowpan module starts collecting incomming frames and fragments
right after lowpan_module_init() therefor it will be better to
clean unfinished fragments in lowpan_cleanup_module() function
instead of doing it when link goes down.Changed spinlocks type to prevent deadlock with expired timer event
and removed unused one.Signed-off-by: Alexander Smirnov

Function lowpan_alloc_new_frame() takes u8 tag as an argument. However,
its only caller, lowpan_process_data() passes down a u16. Hence,
the tag value can get corrupted. This prevent 6lowpan fragment reassembly of a
message when the fragment tag value is over 256.Signed-off-by: Alexander Smirnov

A number of older ColdFire CPU based boards use NS8390 based network
controllers. Most use the Davicom 9008F or the UMC 9008F. This driver
provides the support code to get these devices working on these platforms.Generally the NS8390 based eth device is direct connected via the general
purpose bus of the ColdFire CPU. So its addressing and interrupt setup is
fixed on each of the different platforms (classic platform setup).This driver is based on the other drivers/net/ethernet/8390 drivers, and
includes the lib8390.c code. It uses the existing definitions of the
board NS8390 device addresses, interrupts and access types from the
arch/m68k/include/asm/mcf8390.h, but moves the IO access functions into
the driver code and out of that header.Signed-off-by: Greg Ungerer

As described in my patch series from the other day, we need to
rearrange redirect handling so that the local initiators of packets
(sockets, tunnels, xfrms, etc.) that implement the protocols compute
the route and pass this down into the ipv4/ipv6 routing code.These changes here do so by implementing a new dst_ops->redirect
method.No more do we have this funny code that tries several different sets
of routing keys to try and figure out which route the redirect should
actually be applied to.No more do we have the problem wherein TOS rewriting causes problems
for us.Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

This sets things up so that we can have the protocol error handlers
call down into the ipv6 route code for redirects just as ipv4 already
does.Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

This is going to be used internally by the rt6 redirect code.

No longer needed, as the protocol handlers now all properly

Pass in the SKB rather than just the IP addresses, so that policy
and other aspects can reside in ip_rt_redirect() rather then
icmp_redirect().Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

This introduce TSQ (TCP Small Queues)
TSQ goal is to reduce number of TCP packets in xmit queues (qdisc &
device queues), to reduce RTT and cwnd bias, part of the bufferbloat
problem.sk->sk_wmem_alloc not allowed to grow above a given limit,
allowing no more than ~128KB [1] per tcp socket in qdisc/dev layers at a
given time.TSO packets are sized/capped to half the limit, so that we have two
TSO packets in flight, allowing better bandwidth use.As a side effect, setting the limit to 40000 automatically reduces the
standard gso max limit (65536) to 40000/2 : It can help to reduce
latencies of high prio packets, having smaller TSO packets.This means we divert sock_wfree() to a tcp_wfree() handler, to
queue/send following frames when skb_orphan() [2] is called for the
already queued skbs.Results on my dev machines (tg3/ixgbe nics) are really impressive,
using standard pfifo_fast, and with or without TSO/GSO.Without reduction of nominal bandwidth, we have reduction of buffering
per bulk sender :
< 1ms on Gbit (instead of 50ms with TSO)
< 8ms on 100Mbit (instead of 132 ms)I no longer have 4 MBytes backlogged in qdisc by a single netperf
session, and both side socket autotuning no longer use 4 Mbytes.As skb destructor cannot restart xmit itself ( as qdisc lock might be
taken at this point ), we delegate the work to a tasklet. We use one
tasklest per cpu for performance reasons.If tasklet finds a socket owned by the user, it sets TSQ_OWNED flag.
This flag is tested in a new protocol method called from release_sock(),
to eventually send new segments.[1] New /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_limit_output_bytes tunable
[2] skb_orphan() is usually called at TX completion time,
but some drivers call it in their start_xmit() handler.
These drivers should at least use BQL, or else a single TCP
session can still fill the whole NIC TX ring, since TSQ will
have no effect.Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet

skb_try_coalesce()

accounts in skb->truesize the used part of the page (frame length)This patch fixes skb truesize underestimation, and
also fixes a performance issue, because RX skbs have not enough tailroom
