This adds IPv6 support to the interfaces that are used to express nfsd
exports. All addressed are stored internally as IPv6; backwards
compatibility is maintained using mapped addresses.Thanks to Bruce Fields, Brian Haley, Neil Brown and Hideaki Joshifuji

As it stands it's impossible to use any authentication algorithms
with an ID above 31 portably. It just happens to work on x86 but
fails miserably on ppc64.The reason is that we're using a bit mask to check the algorithm
ID but the mask is only 32 bits wide.After looking at how this is used in the field, I have concluded
that in the long term we should phase out state matching by IDs
because this is made superfluous by the reqid feature. For current
applications, the best solution IMHO is to allow all algorithms when
the bit masks are all ~0.The following patch does exactly that.
This bug was identified by IBM when testing on the ppc64 platform
using the NULL authentication algorithm which has an ID of 251.Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu

As I can see from the code, two places (tcp_v6_syn_recv_sock and
dccp_v6_request_recv_sock) that call this one already run with
BHs disabled, so it's safe to call __inet_inherit_port there.Besides (in case I missed smth with code review) the calltrace
tcp_v6_syn_recv_sock
`- tcp_v4_syn_recv_sock
`- __inet_inherit_port
and the similar for DCCP are valid, but assumes BHs to be disabled.Signed-off-by: Pavel Emelyanov

There is no need to send BSS changes to driver from beacons processed
during scanning. We are more interested in beacons from an AP with which
we are associated - these will still be used to send updates to driver as
the beacons are received without scanning.This change·removes the requirement that bss_info_changed needs to be atomic.
The beacons received during scanning are processed from a tasklet, but if we
do not call bss_info_changed for these beacons there is no need for it to be
atomic. This function (bss_info_changed) is called either from workqueue or
ioctl in all other instances.Signed-off-by: Reinette Chatre

This change is necessary to allow cwnd to grow during persistent
reordering. Cwnd moderation is applied when in the disorder state
and an ack that fills the hole comes in. If the hole was greater
than 3 packets, but less than tp->reordering, cwnd will shrink when
it should not have.Signed-off-by: John Heffner

Add the elastic array of void * pointer to the struct net.
The access rules are simple:1. register the ops with register_pernet_gen_device to get
the id of your private pointer
2. call net_assign_generic() to put the private data on the
struct net (most preferably this should be done in the
->init callback of the ops registered)
3. do not store any private reference on the net_generic array;
4. do not change this pointer while the net is alive;
5. use the net_generic() to get the pointer.When adding a new pointer, I copy the old array, replace it
with a new one and schedule the old for kfree after an RCU
grace period.Since the net_generic explores the net->gen array inside rcu
read section and once set the net->gen->ptr[x] pointer never
changes, this grants us a safe access to generic pointers.Quoting Paul: "... RCU is protecting -only- the net_generic
structure that net_generic() is traversing, and the [pointer]
returned by net_generic() is protected by a reference counter
in the upper-level struct net."Signed-off-by: Pavel Emelyanov

To make some per-net generic pointers, we need some way to address
them, i.e. - IDs. This is simple IDA-based IDs generator for pernet
subsystems.Addressing questions about potential checkpoint/restart problems:
these IDs are "lite-offsets" within the net structure and are by no
means supposed to be exported to the userspace.Since it will be used in the nearest future by devices only (tun,
vlan, tunnels, bridge, etc), I make it resemble the functionality
of register_pernet_device().The new ids is stored in the *id pointer _before_ calling the init
callback to make this id available in this callback.Signed-off-by: Pavel Emelyanov

This patch modifies TIPC's socket code to follow the same approach
used by other protocols. This change eliminates the need for a
mutex in the TIPC-specific portion of the socket protocol data
structure -- in its place, the standard Linux socket backlog queue
and associated locking routines are utilized. These changes fix
a long-standing receive queue bug on SMP systems, and also enable
individual read and write threads to utilize a socket without
unnecessarily interfering with each other.Signed-off-by: Allan Stephens

Connection tracking helpers (specifically FTP) need to be called
before NAT sequence numbers adjustments are performed to be able
to compare them against previously seen ones. We've introduced
two new hooks around 2.6.11 to maintain this ordering when NAT
modules were changed to get called from conntrack helpers directly.The cost of netfilter hooks is quite high and sequence number
adjustments are only rarely needed however. Add a RCU-protected
sequence number adjustment function pointer and call it from
IPv4 conntrack after calling the helper.Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy

Adding extensions to confirmed conntracks is not allowed to avoid races
on reallocation. Don't setup NAT for confirmed conntracks in case NAT
module is loaded late.The has one side-effect, the connections existing before the NAT module
was loaded won't enter the bysource hash. The only case where this actually
makes a difference is in case of SNAT to a multirange where the IP before
NAT is also part of the range. Since old connections don't enter the
bysource hash the first new connection from the IP will have a new address
selected. This shouldn't matter at all.Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy
