The attached patch by Michael Milner adds support for using iptables and

A security issue is emerging. Disallow Routing Header Type 0 by default
as we have been doing for IPv4.
Note: We allow RH2 by default because it is harmless.Signed-off-by: YOSHIFUJI Hideaki

Allow normal users to only choose among a restricted set of congestion
control choices. The default is reno and what ever has been configured
as default. But the policy can be changed by administrator at any time.For example, to allow any choice:

Documentation for the NetLabel system, this includes a basic overview
of how NetLabel works, how LSM developers can integrate it into their
favorite LSM, as well as documentation on the CIPSO related sysctl
variables. Also, due to the difficulty of finding expired IETF
drafts, I am including the IETF CIPSO draft that is the basis of the
NetLabel CIPSO implementation.Signed-off-by: Paul Moore

Turn Appropriate Byte Count off by default because it unfairly
penalizes applications that do small writes. Add better documentation
to describe what it is so users will understand why they might want to
turn it on.Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger

this minor patch fixes the description of net.ipv4.tcp_mem sysctl
in ip-sysctl.txt - the headline names the values "min, pressure, max",
while the description uses the "low, pressure, high" values.
Both tcp_rmem and tcp_wmem descriptions use the "min, pressure, max"
values, so I have changed the tcp_mem to match this and not vice versa.Signed-off-by: Jan "Yenya" Kasprzak

Back in the dark ages, we had to be conservative and only allow 15-bit
window fields if the window scale option was not negotiated. Some
ancient stacks used a signed 16-bit quantity for the window field of
the TCP header and would get confused.Those days are long gone, so we can use the full 16-bits by default
now.There is a sysctl added so that we can still interact with such old
stacksSigned-off-by: Rick Jones

Taken largely from the commit of the patch that added this feature:
1c2fb7f93cb20621772bf304f3dba0849942e5db
I'm not sure about the ordering of the options in sysctl.txt,
so I took a wild guess about where it fits.Signed-Off-By: Horms

Another spin of Herbert Xu's "safer ip reassembly" patch
for 2.6.16.(The original patch is here:
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-netdev&m=112281936522415&w=2
and my only contribution is to have tested it.)This patch (optionally) does additional checks before accepting IP
fragments, which can greatly reduce the possibility of reassembling
fragments which originated from different IP datagrams.Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu

This is an updated version of the RFC3465 ABC patch originally
for Linux 2.6.11-rc4 by Yee-Ting Li. ABC is a way of counting
bytes ack'd rather than packets when updating congestion control.The orignal ABC described in the RFC applied to a Reno style
algorithm. For advanced congestion control there is little
change after leaving slow start.Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.Let it rip!
