commit 56b765b79 ("htb: improved accuracy at high rates")
broke the "linklayer atm" handling.
tc class add ... htb rate X ceil Y linklayer atm
The linklayer setting is implemented by modifying the rate table
which is send to the kernel. No direct parameter were
transferred to the kernel indicating the linklayer setting.
The commit 56b765b79 ("htb: improved accuracy at high rates")
removed the use of the rate table system.
To keep compatible with older iproute2 utils, this patch detects
the linklayer by parsing the rate table. It also supports future
versions of iproute2 to send this linklayer parameter to the
kernel directly. This is done by using the __reserved field in
struct tc_ratespec, to convey the choosen linklayer option, but
only using the lower 4 bits of this field.
Linklayer detection is limited to speeds below 100Mbit/s, because
at high rates the rtab is gets too inaccurate, so bad that
several fields contain the same values, this resembling the ATM
detect. Fields even start to contain "0" time to send, e.g. at
1000Mbit/s sending a 96 bytes packet cost "0", thus the rtab have
been more broken than we first realized.

It doesn't make sense to output a tunnel packet using the same
parameters that it was received with since that will generally
just result in the packet going back to us. As a result, userspace
assumes that the tunnel key is cleared when transitioning through
the switch. In the majority of cases this doesn't matter since a
packet is either going to a tunnel port (in which the key is
overwritten with new values) or to a non-tunnel port (in which
case the key is ignored). However, it's theoreticaly possible that
userspace could rely on the documented behavior, so this corrects
it.

Fix the iproute2 command `bridge vlan show`, after switching from
rtgenmsg to ifinfomsg.
Let's start with a little history:
Feb 20: Vlad Yasevich got his VLAN-aware bridge patchset included in
the 3.9 merge window.
In the kernel commit 6cbdceeb, he added attribute support to
bridge GETLINK requests sent with rtgenmsg.
Mar 6th: Vlad got this iproute2 reference implementation of the bridge
vlan netlink interface accepted (iproute2 9eff0e5c)
Apr 25th: iproute2 switched from using rtgenmsg to ifinfomsg (63338dca)
http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/239602/http://marc.info/?t=136680900700007
Apr 28th: Linus released 3.9
Apr 30th: Stephen released iproute2 3.9.0
The `bridge vlan show` command haven't been working since the switch to
ifinfomsg, or in a released version of iproute2. Since the kernel side
only supports rtgenmsg, which iproute2 switched away from just prior to
the iproute2 3.9.0 release.
I haven't been able to find any documentation, about neither rtgenmsg
nor ifinfomsg, and in which situation to use which, but kernel commit
88c5b5ce seams to suggest that ifinfomsg should be used.
Fixing this in kernel will break compatibility, but I doubt that anybody
have been using it due to this bug in the user space reference
implementation, at least not without noticing this bug. That said the
functionality is still fully functional in 3.9, when reversing iproute2
commit 63338dca.
This could also be fixed in iproute2, but thats an ugly patch that would
reintroduce rtgenmsg in iproute2, and from searching in netdev it seams
like rtgenmsg usage is discouraged. I'm assuming that the only reason
that Vlad implemented the kernel side to use rtgenmsg, was because
iproute2 was using it at the time.

On timeout the TCP sender unconditionally resets the estimated degree
of network reordering (tp->reordering). The idea behind this is that
the estimate is too large to trigger fast recovery (e.g., due to a IP
path change).
But for example if the sender only had 2 packets outstanding, then a
timeout doesn't tell much about reordering. A sender that learns about
reordering on big writes and loses packets on small writes will end up
falsely retransmitting again and again, especially when reordering is
more likely on big writes.
Therefore the sender should only suspect that tp->reordering is too
high if it could have gone into fast recovery with the (lower) default
estimate.

When dumping generic netlink families, only the first dump call
is locked with genl_lock(), which protects the list of families,
and thus subsequent calls can access the data without locking,
racing against family addition/removal. This can cause a crash.
Fix it - the locking needs to be conditional because the first
time around it's already locked.
A similar bug was reported to me on an old kernel (3.4.47) but
the exact scenario that happened there is no longer possible,
on those kernels the first round wasn't locked either. Looking
at the current code I found the race described above, which had
also existed on the old kernel.

Probably this one is quite unlikely to be triggered, but it's more safe
to do the call_rcu() at the end after we have dropped the reference on
the asoc and freed sctp packet chunks. The reason why is because in
sctp_transport_destroy_rcu() the transport is being kfree()'d, and if
we're unlucky enough we could run into corrupted pointers. Probably
that's more of theoretical nature, but it's safer to have this simple fix.
Introduced by commit 8c98653f ("sctp: sctp_close: fix release of bindings

Currently the conntrack checks if the ending sequence of a packet
falls within the observed receive window. However it does so even
if it has not observe any packet from the remote yet and uses an
uninitialized receive window (td_maxwin).
If a connection uses Fast Open to send a SYN-data packet which is
dropped afterward in the network. The subsequent SYNs retransmits
will all fail this check and be discarded, leading to a connection
timeout. This is because the SYN retransmit does not contain data
payload so
end == initial sequence number (isn) + 1
sender->td_end == isn + syn_data_len
receiver->td_maxwin == 0
The fix is to only apply this check after td_maxwin is initialized.

Adding paged frags skbs to af_unix sockets introduced a performance
regression on large sends because of additional page allocations, even
if each skb could carry at least 100% more payload than before.
We can instruct sock_alloc_send_pskb() to attempt high order
allocations.
Most of the time, it does a single page allocation instead of 8.

unix_stream_sendmsg() currently uses order-2 allocations,
and we had numerous reports this can fail.
The __GFP_REPEAT flag present in sock_alloc_send_pskb() is
not helping.
This patch extends the work done in commit eb6a24816b
("af_unix: reduce high order page allocations) for
datagram sockets.
This opens the possibility of zero copy IO (splice() and
friends)
The trick is to not use skb_pull() anymore in recvmsg() path,
and instead add a @consumed field in UNIXCB() to track amount
of already read payload in the skb.
There is a performance regression for large sends
because of extra page allocations that will be addressed
in a follow-up patch, allowing sock_alloc_send_pskb()
to attempt high order page allocations.

Adds the new procfs knobs:
/proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/*/igmpv2_unsolicited_report_interval
/proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/*/igmpv3_unsolicited_report_interval
Which will allow userspace configuration of the IGMP unsolicited report
interval (see below) in milliseconds. The defaults are 10000ms for IGMPv2
and 1000ms for IGMPv3 in accordance with RFC2236 and RFC3376.
Background:
If an IGMP join packet is lost you will not receive data sent to the
multicast group so if no data arrives from that multicast group in a
period of time after the IGMP join a second IGMP join will be sent. The
delay between joins is the "IGMP Unsolicited Report Interval".
Prior to this patch this value was hard coded in the kernel to 10s for
IGMPv2 and 1s for IGMPv3. 10s is unsuitable for some use-cases, such as
IPTV as it can cause channel change to be slow in the presence of packet
loss.
This patch allows the value to be overridden from userspace for both
IGMPv2 and IGMPv3 such that it can be tuned accoding to the network.
Tested with Wireshark and a simple program to join a (non-existent)
multicast group. The distribution of timings for the second join differ
based upon setting the procfs knobs.
igmpvX_unsolicited_report_interval is intended to follow the pattern
established by force_igmp_version, and while a procfs entry has been added
a corresponding sysctl knob has not as it is my understanding that sysctl
is deprecated[1].

IGMP protocol version to use to be explicitly set. As a side effect this
caused the routing cache to be flushed as it was declared as a
DEVINET_SYSCTL_FLUSHING_ENTRY. Flushing is unnecessary and this patch
makes it so flushing does not occur.
Requested by Hannes Frederic Sowa as he was reviewing other patches
adding procfs entries.

If an IGMP join packet is lost you will not receive data sent to the
multicast group so if no data arrives from that multicast group in a
period of time after the IGMP join a second IGMP join will be sent. The
delay between joins is the "IGMP Unsolicited Report Interval".
Previously this value was hard coded to be chosen randomly between 0-10s.
This can be too long for some use-cases, such as IPTV as it can cause
channel change to be slow in the presence of packet loss.
The value 10s has come from IGMPv2 RFC2236, which was reduced to 1s in
IGMPv3 RFC3376. This patch makes the kernel use the 1s value from the
later RFC if we are operating in IGMPv3 mode. IGMPv2 behaviour is
unaffected.
Tested with Wireshark and a simple program to join a (non-existent)
multicast group. The distribution of timings for the second join differ
based upon setting /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/eth0/force_igmp_version.

Same behavior than 802.1q : finds the encapsulated protocol and

Fix ipgre_header() (header_ops->create) to return the correct
amount of bytes pushed. Most callers of dev_hard_header() seem
to care only if it was success, but af_packet.c uses it as
offset to the skb to copy from userspace only once. In practice
this fixes packet socket sendto()/sendmsg() to gre tunnels.

With GRO/LRO processing, there is a problem because Ip[6]InReceives SNMP
counters do not count the number of frames, but number of aggregated
segments.
Its probably too late to change this now.
This patch adds four new counters, tracking number of frames, regardless
of LRO/GRO, and on a per ECN status basis, for IPv4 and IPv6.
Ip[6]NoECTPkts : Number of packets received with NOECT
Ip[6]ECT1Pkts : Number of packets received with ECT(1)
Ip[6]ECT0Pkts : Number of packets received with ECT(0)
Ip[6]CEPkts : Number of packets received with Congestion Experienced

In case a subtree did not match we currently stop backtracking and return
NULL (root table from fib_lookup). This could yield in invalid routing
table lookups when using subtrees.
Instead continue to backtrack until a valid subtree or node is found
and return this match.
Also remove unneeded NULL check.

This reverts commits:
0f75b09c79cbd89acb9ec483e02614
Amongst other things, it's modifies the SKB header
to pull the ethernet headers off via eth_type_trans()
on the output path which is bogus.
It's causing serious regressions for people.
