We have some reasons to kill netdev->priv:
1. netdev->priv is equal to netdev_priv().
2. netdev_priv() wraps the calculation of netdev->priv's offset, obviously
netdev_priv() is more flexible than netdev->priv.
But we cann't kill netdev->priv, because so many drivers reference to it
directly.This patch is a safe convert for netdev->priv to netdev_priv(netdev).
Since all of the netdev->priv is only for read.
But it is too big to be sent in one mail.
I split it to 4 parts and make every part smaller than 100,000 bytes,
which is max size allowed by vger.Signed-off-by: Wang Chen

This patch introduces two helpers that deal with reading and writing
struct net pointers in various network structures.Their implementation depends on CONFIG_NET_NS
For symmetry, both functions work with "struct net **pnet".
Their usage should reduce the number of #ifdef CONFIG_NET_NS,
without adding many helpers for each network structure
that hold a "struct net *pointer"Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet

This provides a missing link in the code chain, as several features implicitly
depend and/or rely on the choice of CCID. Most notably, this is the Send Ack Vector
feature, but also Ack Ratio and Send Loss Event Rate (also taken care of).For Send Ack Vector, the situation is as follows:
* since CCID2 mandates the use of Ack Vectors, there is no point in allowing
endpoints which use CCID2 to disable Ack Vector features such a connection;* a peer with a TX CCID of CCID2 will always expect Ack Vectors, and a peer
with a RX CCID of CCID2 must always send Ack Vectors (RFC 4341, sec. 4);* for all other CCIDs, the use of (Send) Ack Vector is optional and thus
negotiable. However, this implies that the code negotiating the use of Ack
Vectors also supports it (i.e. is able to supply and to either parse or
ignore received Ack Vectors). Since this is not the case (CCID-3 has no Ack
Vector support), the use of Ack Vectors is here disabled, with a comment
in the source code.An analogous consideration arises for the Send Loss Event Rate feature,
since the CCID-3 implementation does not support the loss interval options
of RFC 4342. To make such use explicit, corresponding feature-negotiation
options are inserted which signal the use of the loss event rate option,
as it is used by the CCID3 code.Lastly, the values of the Ack Ratio feature are matched to the choice of CCID.
The patch implements this as a function which is called after the user has
made all other registrations for changing default values of features.The table is variable-length, the reserved (and hence for feature-negotiation
invalid, confirmed by considering section 19.4 of RFC 4340) feature number `0'
is used to mark the end of the table.Signed-off-by: Gerrit Renker

This provides a data structure to record which CCIDs are locally supported
and three accessor functions:
- a test function for internal use which is used to validate CCID requests
made by the user;
- a copy function so that the list can be used for feature-negotiation;
- documented getsockopt() support so that the user can query capabilities.The data structure is a table which is filled in at compile-time with the
list of available CCIDs (which in turn depends on the Kconfig choices).Using the copy function for cloning the list of supported CCIDs is useful for
feature negotiation, since the negotiation is now with the full list of available
CCIDs (e.g. {2, 3}) instead of the default value {2}. This means negotiation
will not fail if the peer requests to use CCID3 instead of CCID2.Signed-off-by: Gerrit Renker

Two registration routines, for SP and NN features, are provided by this patch,
replacing a previous routine which was used for both feature types.These are internal-only routines and therefore start with `__feat_register'.
It further exports the known limits of Sequence Window and Ack Ratio as symbolic
constants.Signed-off-by: Gerrit Renker

Signed-off-by: David S. Miller -
This patch limits feature (capability) negotation to the connection setup phase:
1. Although it is theoretically possible to perform feature negotiation at any
time (and RFC 4340 supports this), in practice this is prohibitively complex,
as it requires to put traffic on hold for each new negotiation.
2. As a byproduct of restricting feature negotiation to connection setup, the
feature-negotiation retransmit timer is no longer required. This part is now
mapped onto the protocol-level retransmission.
Details indicating why timers are no longer needed can be found on
http://www.erg.abdn.ac.uk/users/gerrit/dccp/notes/feature_negotiation/\
implementation_notes.htmlThis patch disables anytime negotiation, subsequent patches work out full
feature negotiation support for connection setup.Signed-off-by: Gerrit Renker
