This patch adds support for multiple independant multicast routing instances,
named "tables".Userspace multicast routing daemons can bind to a specific table instance by
issuing a setsockopt call using a new option MRT_TABLE. The table number is
stored in the raw socket data and affects all following ipmr setsockopt(),
getsockopt() and ioctl() calls. By default, a single table (RT_TABLE_DEFAULT)
is created with a default routing rule pointing to it. Newly created pimreg
devices have the table number appended ("pimregX"), with the exception of
devices created in the default table, which are named just "pimreg" for
compatibility reasons.Packets are directed to a specific table instance using routing rules,
similar to how regular routing rules work. Currently iif, oif and mark
are supported as keys, source and destination addresses could be supported
additionally.Example usage:
- bind pimd/xorp/... to a specific table:
uint32_t table = 123;
setsockopt(fd, IPPROTO_IP, MRT_TABLE, &table, sizeof(table));- create routing rules directing packets to the new table:
# ip mrule add iif eth0 lookup 123
# ip mrule add oif eth0 lookup 123Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy

Removed the statements about ARP cache size as this config option does
not affect it. The cache size is controlled by neigh_table gc thresholds.Remove also expiremental and obsolete markings as the API originally
intended for arp caching is useful for implementing ARP-like protocols
(e.g. NHRP) in user space and has been there for a long enough time.Signed-off-by: Timo Teras

The IP_ADVANCED_ROUTER Kconfig describes the rp_filter
proc option. Recent changes added a loose mode.
Instead of documenting this change too places, refer to

Since IPVS now has partial IPv6 support, this patch moves IPVS from
net/ipv4/ipvs to net/netfilter/ipvs. It's a result of:$ git mv net/ipv4/ipvs net/netfilter
and adapting the relevant Kconfigs/Makefiles to the new path.

This patch provides generic Large Receive Offload (LRO) functionality
for IPv4/TCP traffic.LRO combines received tcp packets to a single larger tcp packet and
passes them then to the network stack in order to increase performance
(throughput). The interface supports two modes: Drivers can either
pass SKBs or fragment lists to the LRO engine.Signed-off-by: Jan-Bernd Themann

This is an implementation of TCP Illinois invented by Shao Liu
at University of Illinois. It is a another variant of Reno which adapts
the alpha and beta parameters based on RTT. The basic idea is to increase
window less rapidly as delay approaches the maximum. See the papers
and talks to get a more complete description.Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger

YeAH-TCP is a sender-side high-speed enabled TCP congestion control
algorithm, which uses a mixed loss/delay approach to compute the
congestion window. It's design goals target high efficiency, internal,
RTT and Reno fairness, resilience to link loss while keeping network
elements load as low as possible.For further details look here:

Now that all protocols have been made aware of the mark
field it can be moved out of the union thus simplyfing
its usage.The config options in the IPv4/IPv6/DECnet subsystems
to enable respectively disable mark based routing only
obfuscate the code with ifdefs, the cost for the
additional comparison in the flow key is insignificant,
and most distributions have all these options enabled
by default anyway. Therefore it makes sense to remove
the config options and enable mark based routing by
default.Signed-off-by: Thomas Graf
