  • After Al Viro (finally) succeeded in removing the sched.h #include in module.h
    recently, it makes sense again to remove other superfluous sched.h includes.
    There are quite a lot of files which include it but don't actually need
    anything defined in there. Presumably these includes were once needed for
    macros that used to live in sched.h, but moved to other header files in the
    course of cleaning it up.

    To ease the pain, this time I did not fiddle with any header files and only
    removed #includes from .c-files, which tend to cause less trouble.

    Compile tested against 2.6.20-rc2 and 2.6.20-rc2-mm2 (with offsets) on alpha,
    arm, i386, ia64, mips, powerpc, and x86_64 with allnoconfig, defconfig,
    allmodconfig, and allyesconfig as well as a few randconfigs on x86_64 and all
    configs in arch/arm/configs on arm. I also checked that no new warnings were
    introduced by the patch (actually, some warnings are removed that were emitted
    by unnecessarily included header files).

  • In receiving Mobile IPv6 home address option which is a TLV carried by
    destination options header, kernel will try to mangle source adderss
    of packet. Think of cloned skbuff it is required to replace it by the
    parser just like routing header case.

    This is a framework to achieve that to allow TLV parser to replace
    inbound skbuff pointer.

  • When the innermost transform uses transport mode the decapsulated packet
    is not visible to netfilter. Pass the packet through the PRE_ROUTING and
    LOCAL_IN hooks again before handing it to upper layer protocols to make
    netfilter-visibility symetrical to the output path.

  • Move nextheader offset to the IP6CB to make it possible to pass a
    packet to ip6_input_finish multiple times and have it skip already
    parsed headers. As a nice side effect this gets rid of the manual
    hopopts skipping in ip6_input_finish.

  • The existing connection tracking subsystem in netfilter can only
    handle ipv4. There were basically two choices present to add
    connection tracking support for ipv6. We could either duplicate all
    of the ipv4 connection tracking code into an ipv6 counterpart, or (the
    choice taken by these patches) we could design a generic layer that
    could handle both ipv4 and ipv6 and thus requiring only one sub-protocol
    (TCP, UDP, etc.) connection tracking helper module to be written.

    In fact nf_conntrack is capable of working with any layer 3
    protocol.

    The existing ipv4 specific conntrack code could also not deal
    with the pecularities of doing connection tracking on ipv6,
    which is also cured here. For example, these issues include:

    1) ICMPv6 handling, which is used for neighbour discovery in
    ipv6 thus some messages such as these should not participate
    in connection tracking since effectively they are like ARP
    messages

    2) fragmentation must be handled differently in ipv6, because
    the simplistic "defrag, connection track and NAT, refrag"
    (which the existing ipv4 connection tracking does) approach simply
    isn't feasible in ipv6

    3) ipv6 extension header parsing must occur at the correct spots
    before and after connection tracking decisions, and there were
    no provisions for this in the existing connection tracking
    design

    4) ipv6 has no need for stateful NAT

    The ipv4 specific conntrack layer is kept around, until all of
    the ipv4 specific conntrack helpers are ported over to nf_conntrack
    and it is feature complete. Once that occurs, the old conntrack
    stuff will get placed into the feature-removal-schedule and we will
    fully kill it off 6 months later.

  • 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!
