69a73829db [DST]: shrinks sizeof(struct rtable) by 64 bytes on x86_64
On x86_64, sizeof(struct rtable) is 0x148, which is rounded up to
0x180 bytes by SLAB allocator.

We can reduce this to exactly 0x140 bytes, without alignment overhead,
and store 12 struct rtable per PAGE instead of 10.

rate_tokens is currently defined as an "unsigned long", while its
content should not exceed 6*HZ. It can safely be converted to an
unsigned int.

Moving tclassid right after rate_tokens to fill the 4 bytes hole
permits to save 8 bytes on 'struct dst_entry', which finally permits
to save 8 bytes on 'struct rtable'

d4fa26ff44 [NETNS][DST]: Add the network namespace pointer in dst_ops
The network namespace pointer can be stored into the dst_ops structure.
This is usefull when there are multiple instances of the dst_ops for a
protocol. When there are no several instances, this field will be never
used in the protocol. So there is no impact for the protocols which do
implement the network namespaces.

569d36452e [NETNS][DST] dst: pass the dst_ops as parameter to the gc functions
The garbage collection function receive the dst_ops structure as
parameter. This is useful for the next incoming patchset because it
will need the dst_ops (there will be several instances) and the
network namespace pointer (contained in the dst_ops).

The protocols which do not take care of the namespaces will not be
impacted by this change (expect for the function signature), they do
just ignore the parameter.

8b7817f3a9 [IPSEC]: Add ICMP host relookup support
RFC 4301 requires us to relookup ICMP traffic that does not match any
policies using the reverse of its payload.  This patch implements this
for ICMP traffic that originates from or terminates on localhost.

This is activated on outbound with the new policy flag XFRM_POLICY_ICMP,
and on inbound by the new state flag XFRM_STATE_ICMP.

On inbound the policy check is now performed by the ICMP protocol so
that it can repeat the policy check where necessary.

815f4e57e9 [IPSEC]: Make xfrm_lookup flags argument a bit-field
This patch introduces an enum for bits in the flags argument of xfrm_lookup.
This is so that we can cram more information into it later.

Since all current users use just the values 0 and 1, XFRM_LOOKUP_WAIT has
been added with the value 1 << 0 to represent the current meaning of flags.

The test in __xfrm_lookup has been changed accordingly.

862b82c6f9 [IPSEC]: Merge most of the output path
As part of the work on asynchrnous cryptographic operations, we need
to be able to resume from the spot where they occur.  As such, it
helps if we isolate them to one spot.

This patch moves most of the remaining family-specific processing into
the common output code.

352e512c32 [NET]: Eliminate duplicate copies of dst_discard
We have a number of copies of dst_discard scattered around the place
which all do the same thing, namely free a packet on the input or
output paths.

This patch deletes all of them except dst_discard and points all the
users to it.

The only non-trivial bit is decnet where it returns an error.
However, conceptually this is identical to the blackhole functions
used in IPv4 and IPv6 which do not return errors.  So they should
either all return errors or all return zero.  For now I've stuck with
the majority and picked zero as the return value.

It doesn't really matter in practice since few if any driver would
react differently depending on a zero return value or NET_RX_DROP.

b4ce92775c [IPV6]: Move nfheader_len into rt6_info
The dst member nfheader_len is only used by IPv6.  It's also currently
creating a rather ugly alignment hole in struct dst.  Therefore this patch
moves it from there into struct rt6_info.

It also reorders the fields in rt6_info to minimize holes.

14e50e57ae [XFRM]: Allow packet drops during larval state resolution.
The current IPSEC rule resolution behavior we have does not work for a
lot of people, even though technically it's an improvement from the
-EAGAIN buisness we had before.

Right now we'll block until the key manager resolves the route.  That
works for simple cases, but many folks would rather packets get
silently dropped until the key manager resolves the IPSEC rules.

We can't tell these folks to "set the socket non-blocking" because
they don't have control over the non-block setting of things like the
sockets used to resolve DNS deep inside of the resolver libraries in
libc.

With that in mind I coded up the patch below with some help from
Herbert Xu which provides packet-drop behavior during larval state
resolution, controllable via sysctl and off by default.

This lays the framework to either:

1) Make this default at some point or...

2) Move this logic into xfrm{4,6}_policy.c and implement the
   ARP-like resolution queue we've all been dreaming of.
   The idea would be to queue packets to the policy, then
   once the larval state is resolved by the key manager we
   re-resolve the route and push the packets out.  The
   packets would timeout if the rule didn't get resolved
   in a certain amount of time.

1e19e02ca0 [NET]: Reorder fields of struct dst_entry
This last patch (but not least :) ) finally moves the next pointer at
the end of struct dst_entry. This permits to perform route cache
lookups with a minimal cost of one cache line per entry, instead of
two.

Both 32bits and 64bits platforms benefit from this new layout.

1b5c229987 [XFRM] STATE: Support non-fragment outbound transformation headers.
For originated outbound IPv6 packets which will fragment, ip6_append_data()
should know length of extension headers before sending them and
the length is carried by dst_entry.
IPv6 IPsec headers fragment then transformation was
designed to place all headers after fragment header.
OTOH Mobile IPv6 extension headers do not fragment then
it is a good idea to make dst_entry have non-fragment length to tell it
to ip6_append_data().

16a6677fdf [XFRM]: Netfilter IPsec output hooks
Call netfilter hooks before IPsec transforms. Packets visit the
FORWARD/LOCAL_OUT and POST_ROUTING hook before the first encapsulation
and the LOCAL_OUT and POST_ROUTING hook before each following tunnel mode
transform.

Patch from Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>:

Move the loop from dst_output into xfrm4_output/xfrm6_output since they're
the only ones who need to it. xfrm{4,6}_output_one() processes the first SA
all subsequent transport mode SAs and is called in a loop that calls the
netfilter hooks between each two calls.

In order to avoid the tail call issue, I've added the inline function
nf_hook which is nf_hook_slow plus the empty list check.
