9330419d9a IPVS: netns, use ip_vs_proto_data as param.
ip_vs_protocol *pp is replaced by ip_vs_proto_data *pd in
function call in ip_vs_protocol struct i.e. :,
 - timeout_change()
 - state_transition()

ip_vs_protocol_timeout_change() got ipvs as param, due to above
and a upcoming patch - defence work

Most of this changes are triggered by Julians comment:
"tcp_timeout_change should work with the new struct ip_vs_proto_data
        so that tcp_state_table will go to pd->state_table
        and set_tcp_state will get pd instead of pp"

*v3
Mostly comments from Julian
The pp -> pd conversion should start from functions like
ip_vs_out() that use pp = ip_vs_proto_get(iph.protocol),
now they should use ip_vs_proto_data_get(net, iph.protocol).
conn_in_get() and conn_out_get() unused param *pp, removed.

*v4
ip_vs_protocol_timeout_change() walk the proto_data path.

fc723250c9 IPVS: netns to services part 1
Services hash tables got netns ptr a hash arg,
While Real Servers (rs) has been moved to ipvs struct.
Two new inline functions added to get net ptr from skb.

Since ip_vs is called from different contexts there is two
places to dig for the net ptr skb->dev or skb->sk
this is handled in skb_net() and skb_sknet()

Global functions, ip_vs_service_get() ip_vs_lookup_real_service()
etc have got  struct net *net as first param.
If possible get net ptr skb etc,
 - if not &init_net is used at this early stage of patching.

ip_vs_ctl.c  procfs not ready for netns yet.

*v3
 Comments by Julian
- __ip_vs_service_find and __ip_vs_svc_fwm_find are fast path,
  net_eq(svc->net, net) so the check is at the end now.
- net = skb_net(skb) in ip_vs_out moved after check for skb_dst.

f363e45fd1 net/ceph: make ceph_msgr_wq non-reentrant
ceph messenger code does a rather complex dancing around multithread
workqueue to make sure the same work item isn't executed concurrently
on different CPUs.  This restriction can be provided by workqueue with
WQ_NON_REENTRANT.

Make ceph_msgr_wq non-reentrant workqueue with the default concurrency
level and remove the QUEUED/BUSY logic.

* This removes backoff handling in con_work() but it couldn't reliably
  block execution of con_work() to begin with - queue_con() can be
  called after the work started but before BUSY is set.  It seems that
  it was an optimization for a rather cold path and can be safely
  removed.

* The number of concurrent work items is bound by the number of
  connections and connetions are independent from each other.  With
  the default concurrency level, different connections will be
  executed independently.

This patch adds the required #ifdefs so that IPv6 tproxy can truly be used
without connection tracking.

13ee6ac579 netfilter: fix race in conntrack between dump_table and destroy
The netlink interface to dump the connection tracking table has a race
when entries are deleted at the same time. A customer reported a crash
and the backtrace showed thatctnetlink_dump_table was running while a
conntrack entry was being destroyed.
(see https://bugzilla.vyatta.com/show_bug.cgi?id=6402).

According to RCU documentation, when using hlist_nulls the reader
must handle the case of seeing a deleted entry and not proceed
further down the linked list.  The old code would continue
which caused the scan to walk into the free list.

This patch uses locking (rather than RCU) for this operation which
is guaranteed safe, and no longer requires getting reference while
doing dump operation.

c191a836a9 tcp: disallow bind() to reuse addr/port
inet_csk_bind_conflict() logic currently disallows a bind() if
it finds a friend socket (a socket bound on same address/port)
satisfying a set of conditions :

1) Current (to be bound) socket doesnt have sk_reuse set
OR
2) other socket doesnt have sk_reuse set
OR
3) other socket is in LISTEN state

We should add the CLOSE state in the 3) condition, in order to avoid two
REUSEADDR sockets in CLOSE state with same local address/port, since
this can deny further operations.

Note : a prior patch tried to address the problem in a different (and
buggy) way. (commit fda48a0d7a tcp: bind() fix when many ports
are bound).

99de8ea962 rpc: keep backchannel xprt as long as server connection
Multiple backchannels can share the same tcp connection; from rfc 5661 section
2.10.3.1:

	A connection's association with a session is not exclusive.  A
	connection associated with the channel(s) of one session may be
	simultaneously associated with the channel(s) of other sessions
	including sessions associated with other client IDs.

However, multiple backchannels share a connection, they must all share
the same xid stream (hence the same rpc_xprt); the only way we have to
match replies with calls at the rpc layer is using the xid.

So, keep the rpc_xprt around as long as the connection lasts, in case
we're asked to use the connection as a backchannel again.

Requests to create new backchannel clients over a given server
connection should results in creating new clients that reuse the
existing rpc_xprt.

But to start, just reject attempts to associate multiple rpc_xprt's with
the same underlying bc_xprt.

IPv4 over firewire needs to be able to remove ARP entries
from the ARP cache that belong to nodes that are removed, because
IPv4 over firewire uses ARP packets for private information
about nodes.

This information becomes invalid as soon as node drops
off the bus and when it reconnects, its only possible
to start talking to it after it responded to an ARP packet.
But ARP cache prevents such packets from being sent.

83723d6071 netfilter: x_tables: dont block BH while reading counters
Using "iptables -L" with a lot of rules have a too big BH latency.
Jesper mentioned ~6 ms and worried of frame drops.

Switch to a per_cpu seqlock scheme, so that taking a snapshot of
counters doesnt need to block BH (for this cpu, but also other cpus).

This adds two increments on seqlock sequence per ipt_do_table() call,
its a reasonable cost for allowing "iptables -L" not block BH
processing.

0363466866 net offloading: Convert checksums to use centrally computed features.
In order to compute the features for other offloads (primarily
scatter/gather), we need to first check the ability of the NIC to
offload the checksum for the packet.  Since we have already computed
this, we can directly use the result instead of figuring it out
again.

02932ce9e2 net offloading: Convert skb_need_linearize() to use precomputed features.
This switches skb_need_linearize() to use the features that have
been centrally computed.  In doing so, this fixes a problem where
scatter/gather should not be used because the card does not support
checksum offloading on that type of packet.  On device registration
we only check that some form of checksum offloading is available if
scatter/gatther is enabled but we must also check at transmission
time.  Examples of this include IPv6 or vlan packets on a NIC that
only supports IPv4 offloading.

91ecb63c07 net offloading: Convert dev_gso_segment() to use precomputed features.
This switches dev_gso_segment() to use the device features computed
by the centralized routine.  In doing so, it fixes a problem where
it would always use dev->features, instead of those appropriate
to the number of vlan tags if any are present.

fc741216db net offloading: Pass features into netif_needs_gso().
Now that there is a single function that can compute the device
features relevant to a packet, we don't want to run it for each
offload.  This converts netif_needs_gso() to take the features
of the device, rather than computing them itself.

f01a5236bd net offloading: Generalize netif_get_vlan_features().
netif_get_vlan_features() is currently only used by netif_needs_gso(),
so it only concerns itself with GSO features.  However, several other
places also should take into account the contents of the packet when
deciding whether to offload to hardware.  This generalizes the function
to return features about all of the various forms of offloading.  Since
offloads tend to be linked together, this avoids duplicating the logic
in each location (i.e. the scatter/gather code also needs the checksum
logic).

9497a0518e net offloading: Accept NETIF_F_HW_CSUM for all protocols.
We currently only have software fallback for one type of checksum: the
TCP/UDP one's complement.  This means that a protocol that uses hardware
offloading for a different type of checksum (FCoE, SCTP) must directly
check the device's features and do the right thing ahead of time.  By
the time we get to dev_can_checksum(), we're only deciding whether to
apply the one algorithm in software or hardware.  NETIF_F_HW_CSUM has the
same capabilities as the software version, so we should always use it if
present.  The primary advantage of this is multiply tagged vlans can use
hardware checksumming.

0ab03c2b14 netlink: test for all flags of the NLM_F_DUMP composite
Due to NLM_F_DUMP is composed of two bits, NLM_F_ROOT | NLM_F_MATCH,
when doing "if (x & NLM_F_DUMP)", it tests for _either_ of the bits
being set. Because NLM_F_MATCH's value overlaps with NLM_F_EXCL,
non-dump requests with NLM_F_EXCL set are mistaken as dump requests.

Substitute the condition to test for _all_ bits being set.
