This is a revision of the previously submitted patch, which alters
the way files are organized and compiled in the following manner:
* UDP and UDP-Lite now use separate object files
* source file dependencies resolved via header files
net/ipv{4,6}/udp_impl.h
* order of inclusion files in udp.c/udplite.c adapted
accordingly
[NET/IPv4]: Support for the UDP-Lite protocol (RFC 3828)
This patch adds support for UDP-Lite to the IPv4 stack, provided as an
extension to the existing UDPv4 code:
* generic routines are all located in net/ipv4/udp.c
* UDP-Lite specific routines are in net/ipv4/udplite.c
* MIB/statistics support in /proc/net/snmp and /proc/net/udplite
* shared API with extensions for partial checksum coverage
[NET/IPv6]: Extension for UDP-Lite over IPv6
It extends the existing UDPv6 code base with support for UDP-Lite
in the same manner as per UDPv4. In particular,
* UDPv6 generic and shared code is in net/ipv6/udp.c
* UDP-Litev6 specific extensions are in net/ipv6/udplite.c
* MIB/statistics support in /proc/net/snmp6 and /proc/net/udplite6
* support for IPV6_ADDRFORM
* aligned the coding style of protocol initialisation with af_inet6.c
* made the error handling in udpv6_queue_rcv_skb consistent;
to return `-1' on error on all error cases
* consolidation of shared code
[NET]: UDP-Lite Documentation and basic XFRM/Netfilter support
The UDP-Lite patch further provides
* API documentation for UDP-Lite
* basic xfrm support
* basic netfilter support for IPv4 and IPv6 (LOG target)

By replacing the current method of exporting the device configuration
which included allocating a temporary buffer, copying ipv6_devconf
into it and copying that buffer into the message with a method that
uses nla_reserve() allowing to copy the device configuration directly
into the skb data buffer, a GFP_ATOMIC allocation could be removed.

Throughout the TCP/DCCP (and tunnelling) code, it often happens that the
return code of a transmit function needs to be tested against NET_XMIT_CN
which is a value that does not indicate a strict error condition.
This patch uses a macro for these recurring situations which is consistent
with the already existing macro net_xmit_errno, saving on duplicated code.

Replaces error handling of message construction functions when
constructing notifications with bug traps since a failure implies
a bug in calculating the size of the skb.

This removes two redundancies:
1) The test (skb->protocol == htons(ETH_P_IPV6) in tcp_v6_init_sequence()
is always true, due to
* tcp_v6_conn_request() is the only function calling this one
* tcp_v6_conn_request() redirects all skb's with ETH_P_IP protocol to
tcp_v4_conn_request() [ cf. top of tcp_v6_conn_request()]
2) The first argument, `struct sock *sk' of tcp_v{4,6}_init_sequence() is
never used.

the skb_set_owner_w() just generates a lot of noise and
extra atomics we don't really need.

We currently allocate a fixed size (TCP_SYNQ_HSIZE=512) slots hash table for
each LISTEN socket, regardless of various parameters (listen backlog for
example)
On x86_64, this means order-1 allocations (might fail), even for 'small'
sockets, expecting few connections. On the contrary, a huge server wanting a
backlog of 50000 is slowed down a bit because of this fixed limit.
This patch makes the sizing of listen hash table a dynamic parameter,
depending of :
- net.core.somaxconn tunable (default is 128)
- net.ipv4.tcp_max_syn_backlog tunable (default : 256, 1024 or 128)
- backlog value given by user application (2nd parameter of listen())
For large allocations (bigger than PAGE_SIZE), we use vmalloc() instead of
kmalloc().
We still limit memory allocation with the two existing tunables (somaxconn &
tcp_max_syn_backlog). So for standard setups, this patch actually reduce RAM
usage.

Now that all protocols have been made aware of the mark
field it can be moved out of the union thus simplyfing
its usage.
The config options in the IPv4/IPv6/DECnet subsystems
to enable respectively disable mark based routing only
obfuscate the code with ifdefs, the cost for the
additional comparison in the flow key is insignificant,
and most distributions have all these options enabled
by default anyway. Therefore it makes sense to remove
the config options and enable mark based routing by
default.

Based on patch by James D. Nurmi:
I've got some code very dependant on nfnetlink_queue, and turned up a
large number of warns coming from skb_trim. While it's quite possibly
my code, having not seen it on older kernels made me a bit suspect.
Anyhow, based on some googling I turned up this thread:
http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/8/13/56
And believe the issue to be related, so attached is a small patch to
the kernel -- not sure if this is completely correct, but for anyone
else hitting the WARN_ON(1) in skbuff.h, it might be helpful..

There's a bug in the seqfile show operation for flowlabel objects, where
each hash chain is traversed cumulatively for each element. The following
function is called for each element of each chain:
static void ip6fl_fl_seq_show(struct seq_file *seq, struct ip6_flowlabel *fl)
{
while(fl) {
seq_printf...
fl = fl->next;
}
}
Thus, objects can appear mutliple times when reading
/proc/net/ip6_flowlabel, as the above is called for each element in the
chain.
The solution is to remove the while() loop from the above, and traverse
each chain exactly once, per the patch below. This also removes the
ip6fl_fl_seq_show() function, which does nothing else.

There is a number of issues in parsing user-provided table in
translate_table(). Malicious user with CAP_NET_ADMIN may crash system by
passing special-crafted table to the *_tables.
The first issue is that mark_source_chains() function is called before entry
content checks. In case of standard target, mark_source_chains() function
uses t->verdict field in order to determine new position. But the check, that
this field leads no further, than the table end, is in check_entry(), which
is called later, than mark_source_chains().
The second issue, that there is no check that target_offset points inside
entry. If so, *_ITERATE_MATCH macro will follow further, than the entry
ends. As a result, we'll have oops or memory disclosure.
And the third issue, that there is no check that the target is completely
inside entry. Results are the same, as in previous issue.
